"This is enlightenment!"
As dawn broke on the horizon, a gasp of surprise rang out from the alchemy room.
Qin Xin was no stranger to this strange state; he had experienced it before and even gained many benefits from it.
Qin Xin couldn't wait to examine the changes in his body.
After calming down, Qin Xin quickly showed a somewhat puzzled expression.
After this epiphany, Qin Xin felt that apart from his improved perception, nothing else had changed.
Moreover, since it was a spiritual cultivation practice, the Supreme Divine Evolution Technique was still running continuously, so Qin Xin's perception range through his spiritual sense had been enhanced, which did not surprise him too much.
In addition, Qin Xin felt as if he had gotten a good rest, and the fatigue from refining pills and cultivating day and night had completely disappeared.
Upon catching a faint fishy odor in the air, Qin Xin couldn't help but cover his nose.
After informing the maids in the Dan Academy to prepare hot water, Qin Xin immediately began washing up.
Compared to before entering Zhongzhou, Qin Xin is now taller and more robust, but there are several shallow scars on his back and chest.
Although there are now many elixirs that can completely remove these scars, Qin Xin felt it was unnecessary, as having some scars on one's body was inevitable.
Lying in the bathtub, Qin Xin stretched lazily, preparing to take a nap.
The door to the alchemy room suddenly creaked open, giving Qin Xin a pleasant surprise.
Within this alchemy academy, each alchemist has a fixed alchemy room, and outsiders are not allowed to enter without permission.
So Qin Xin was somewhat surprised when the door to the alchemy room was opened.
He quickly stood up from the bathtub, grabbed a pair of pants, and put them on.
At the same time, a somewhat beautiful figure met Qin Xin's gaze.
“Uh, Senior Sister Ling…”
Seeing Ling Hanyan's somewhat startled gaze, Qin Xin awkwardly took a few steps back and quickly grabbed a piece of clothing to cover his bare upper body.
"I've come to pick up some things."
Although Ling Hanyan appeared completely calm, her slightly flushed cheeks betrayed her.
Qin Xin said something somewhat awkwardly for a moment.
Ling Hanyan was also surprised to find Qin Xin taking a bath in the alchemy room so early in the morning. Previously, she had been using the alchemy room, and after handing it over to Qin Xin, she had not taken away many of the pill formulas and spiritual herbs.
I had some free time today and wanted to take a look. After confirming that there was no warm feeling in the room, I stepped in with peace of mind. But I didn't expect to see Qin Xin jumping out of the bathtub and putting on his pants.
This scene was naturally very awkward, and the atmosphere in the entire alchemy room became somewhat strange. Ling Hanyan was browsing through some alchemy books on the bookshelf in the alchemy room.
Qin Xin sat to the side, secretly relieved that he had put away the Black Dragon Pill Furnace after finishing the alchemy. Otherwise, if Ling Hanyan had discovered that he had such a pill furnace made of dragon bones, there would have been trouble.
Just as the two of them were preoccupied with their own thoughts behind the alchemy room.
A voice suddenly came from outside the door, "Is Alchemist Qin Xin here?"
Upon hearing the sound, Qin Xin immediately opened the alchemy room, where a young apprentice was holding a wooden box.
"This is the Heavenly Soul Blood Fusion Pill that the Dean asked me to give you. Please confirm it."
The apprentice's voice was very calm, but there was a hint of anger in his tone, perhaps because he had been guarding the alchemy furnace for a long time, which made him somewhat irritable.
Upon hearing that the Heavenly Soul Blood Fusion Pill had been successfully refined, Qin Xin was overjoyed and quickly took the wooden box into his hands.
The moment Qin Xin touched the wooden box, he could sense that the material used to make it was definitely not an ordinary object; a slight coolness followed his touch.
These wooden boxes are generally used to store very precious medicinal herbs and elixirs, ensuring that the spiritual power of the herbs or elixirs will not dissipate within decades or even centuries.
The moment the wooden box was opened, a pill about the size of a thumb, emitting a faint blue light, appeared in Qin Xin's field of vision.
A wisp of fragrance wafted out, causing Qin Xin to feel the spirit in his sea of consciousness tremble slightly before settling back onto the Spirit Devouring Stone, motionless.
Although Qin Xin had never seen the Heavenly Soul Blood Fusion Pill before, he could tell from its appearance that there was nothing wrong with it. Moreover, although the quality of the pill was not perfect, it was still top-notch among high-grade pills.
After Qin Xin confirmed that the pill was correct, the young apprentice left without saying goodbye.
However, when Qin Xin turned around, he found that Ling Hanyan's eyes were staring straight at him, making him feel a little uncomfortable.
"What's wrong? Is your soul damaged?" Ling Hanyan asked.
Ling Hanyan wasn't the first person to ask about the damage to his soul, and Qin Xin was too lazy to explain such things. Besides, it wouldn't be a good thing for others to know about Danqing's existence.
If Danqing's former enemies were to come knocking on his door, he would probably be reduced to ashes in no time.
However, seeing the look in Ling Hanyan's eyes that said she wouldn't give up until she got to the bottom of it, Qin Xin nodded and replied, "I guess so!"
Upon hearing Qin Xin's reply, a strange light flashed in Ling Hanyan's eyes. She had heard about soul damage before.
"This Heavenly Soul Blood Fusion Pill is a high-grade seventh-rank pill; it might be able to repair things." Ling Hanyan seemed completely clueless about how to comfort people, and after looking at the pill in Qin Xin's hand, she spoke in a very calm tone.
Qin Xin shrugged, then put the Heavenly Soul Fusion Blood Pill into his spatial ring.
To awaken Danqing with this pill, Qin Xin needs a very quiet environment. After all, Danqing's spirit is in a coma and cannot refine the Heavenly Soul Blood Fusion Pill on its own. The pill's medicinal power needs to be activated by him.
"By the way, I heard that Yun Li gave you a spot to participate in the Pill Gathering?"
Ling Hanyan suddenly asked.
"That's right." Qin Xin nodded without denying it.
"The journey to Tianque City is long, you can travel with me; it will be safer that way," Ling Hanyan continued. "This time, the Tianque City Alchemy Academy has sent many excellent young alchemists, including one who seems to be a sixth-grade advanced alchemist. But don't worry too much, as long as you don't lose too badly."
"Well, I hope so," Qin Xin replied casually.
Ever since he learned about Ling Hanyan's relationship with the Qin clan of Zhongzhou, he has always felt somewhat uncomfortable around her, perhaps because of some unresolved issues in his heart.
Ling Hanyan naturally sensed the tension between Qin Xin and her, but due to her personality, she was unwilling to ask about it.
Moreover, she was also puzzled when she learned that Qin Xin was participating in the alchemy gathering and using the name "Danqing".
"Then let's set off from the Tianxuan Mountain gate in three days."
After Ling Hanyan finished speaking, she casually picked up a book on alchemy and left the alchemy room.
