It seems that when people get old, they don't like to move much. In recent years, Xifu has seldom opened the furnace to make elixirs, and when he did, he only completed the most basic tasks.

"Master Xi Dan, now you have to enjoy some peace and quiet."

Mr. Chen walked into the familiar Chenguang Palace and saw Xi Fu standing next to the alchemy furnace. The old man's demeanor was still very elegant and his hair was still combed meticulously, but the years had ravaged his hair and it was completely white, revealing his old age.

"You can't refuse to accept your age."

When Xi Fu saw that it was Chen Sheng, he lamented that his health was getting worse day by day, but he was not entirely disappointed. He was still a little happy and said, "Fortunately, you have learned all my fire control methods, so you don't have to worry about losing the inheritance."

He has seen Chen Sheng's behavior over the years and is very pleased. When he first came to Chen Guang Palace, the young boy who was ignorant of alchemy has become a first-class alchemist in the medicine house after going through many hardships.

Low-key, rigorous, serious and humble.

Mr. Chen possesses all the excellent qualities of these alchemists. In fact, many elderly people are very optimistic about this young man.

"Even without me, there are still many alchemists who hope to inherit your legacy."

There was a hint of nostalgia in Chen Sheng's eyes. It was because of Xi Fu's broad-mindedness that he was able to embark on the path of alchemy.

When he first arrived, he asked Xi Fu to learn the skills of alchemy. Thinking about it now, it was really presumptuous.

But the old man just agreed.

"After all the looks, I still like you."

Xi Fu did not refute. There were many alchemists in the medicine house who were willing to listen to his teachings, but he still firmly believed that Chen Sheng was the most suitable one.

He knew Chen Sheng's recent situation and asked, "Are you here today because you are tired of the nagging in the Heavenly King Palace?"

Time will give the answer.

During these twenty years, he had seen Chen Sheng grow into a respected alchemist, with people coming to him every day to ask him to make elixirs, and his door was often visited by people.

"It's a bit helpless. There are too many people who don't follow the rules."

Mr. Chen smiled bitterly. Things like the steward of Yuwu Temple coming to his house today were a common occurrence over the years.

Sometimes, in order to avoid being disturbed, he even closed the Heavenly King Hall and had some peace and quiet.

"very nice."

When Xi Fu was in his prime, he was a popular alchemist in the medicine house. However, as he grew older, his energy declined and he was no longer as good as before. He had to decline many commissions.

"These are more than twenty pills of Qi-boosting and longevity-promoting pills. I brought them for you, old man."

Chen Sheng didn't know how to comfort Xi Fu, so he could only change the subject, took out the newly refined Qi-boosting and longevity pills, and said, "It's the Autumn Wind from the Yuwu Palace, it didn't cost anything."

The elderly have pure minds and don’t want their descendants to worry and spend money.

"In that case, I'll take it."

Xi Fu was reluctant to accept it at first, but when he heard that it was something from "Yuwudian", he took it without any psychological burden.

Everyone knows that Yuwudian is a wealthy family with a lot of money, so it would be a shame not to slaughter them.

And this is why Mr. Chen chose the Qi-invigorating and longevity-promoting pills from Yuwu Hall.

Xi Fu also knew that Mr. Chen said that deliberately. He didn't want to refuse this friendship, so he simply accepted it.

There is more than one old person in the world.

"It's empty."

In Changyue Palace, Master Ding Dan stood in front of the empty treasury with a lonely look on his face. His previously straight waist had become hunched, giving off a sense of a hero in his twilight years.

"Why don't I refine some to fill the gap."

Mr. Chen walked in and saw this scene, and was silent.

Master Ding Dan is not a waste elixir that has disappeared sadly, but a lonely old age. When the end comes, he will be like the waste elixir that once existed, and disappear without a trace.

"It is dead when it is left there, but it is alive when it is used on you. In this case, there is no need for it to continue to exist."

Master Ding Dan shook his head. Things in the past cannot be forced. He glanced at Chen Sheng and said, "Your cultivation has not yet reached the state of great perfection in Qi Refining."

He had the same worries as Luzhu. Time waits for no one. Once he passed that limit, there would be no hope for Chen Sheng to build his foundation.

"I have reached the twelfth level of Qi Refining. I only have one more level to go."

Mr. Chen told the truth.

"If you can build your foundation, it will be a blessing for Yaolu. You may be able to be on par with Elder Shen."

In a sense, Chen Sheng is his pride, as well as the pride of Xi Fu and Master Fei. The three of them have created a top-notch alchemist of the first rank.

He was sure that if Chen Sheng could reach the Foundation Establishment Stage, then his promotion to the Second Order Alchemist would be a piece of cake, and it would only take some time for him to reach the top level in this field.

"Of course you can. If you live longer, you will be able to see it."

This is what Chen Sheng really thinks. He can wait. Even if there is a bottleneck in his cultivation, he can still persevere and work hard.

Time has given him too much leisure.

"It's better for you to break through to the foundation-building stage as soon as possible than to expect me to live long."

Master Ding Dan smiled, thinking that Mr. Chen was trying to comfort him, but he was still determined to live longer.

"Here are some Qi-boosting and longevity-promoting pills. Take them."

Just like the scene in Chenguang Palace was repeated, Chen Sheng took out a bottle of Qi-invigorating and longevity pills and told their source.

"Okay, I have to wait for Elder Shen to step down as the Elder of Yaolu."

Master Ding Dan accepted it. He really needed to replenish some life essence and wait for Mr. Shen to step down so that he could push Chen Sheng to the position of deacon of the medicine house.

Only then could he feel completely at ease.

Mr. Chen was touched by the thought. He talked with the old man for a while, and Master Ding Dan laughed happily at some new pharmacological knowledge he learned.

The Qi-invigorating and longevity elixir could not be left behind by Master Fei Dan, and then Chen Sheng went to the Luxing Palace.

“No.”

Chen Sheng's search was in vain. The Luxing Hall was in complete silence. He touched the alchemy furnace and found it was very cold. It was obvious that Master Fei had not opened the furnace to make the elixir for several days.

Finding someone is also simple. Master Fei is not good at making pills, so he can only fiddle with spiritual herbs.

Sure enough, in the East 9th District, Mr. Chen saw Master Fei Dan, who was struggling to swing the medicine hoe, working like an old farmer, sweating profusely.

However, his physical strength was not as good as before, and he stopped after moving for a few times.

"This spiritual herb is grown really well."

Chen Sheng moved closer and looked at the spiritual herbs raised by Master Fei Dan. They were lush and green, growing very luxuriantly, without any sign of decline.

Master Fei Dan's skills did not decline, but became more refined with the passage of time.

“I can only plant a little.”

When Master Fei Dan met Mr. Chen, he was all smiles and told him about his past abilities. At that time, he was full of energy and planted spiritual herbs throughout the entire East 9th District, and still felt that the land was too small.

Now, I feel powerless to take care of such a small area.

"If you want to plant any spiritual herbs, just tell me."

Mr. Chen took over the hoe and continued the work that Master Fei Dan had not finished.

His movements were very skillful; after all, it was a skill he inherited from Master Fei Dan. He wielded the hoe with a whirring force, and the hoe struck the ground with just the right depth, showing his great skill.

After a while, a piece of spiritual herbs was ready.

"You have your own things to do. Why would I, an old man, bother you?"

Master Fei Dan was very satisfied. Chen Sheng’s skill in growing spiritual herbs had not fallen behind and he still had the charm of his youth.

That's why he was even more reluctant to waste Mr. Chen's time.

"You old man, you are insulting me."

Chen Sheng felt a little bit of blame. It was a blessing for the old man to bother him, but he also knew the temper of these people. He could only sigh and said, "I have some Qi-boosting and longevity-promoting pills. Please accept them."

His only hope now is that Master Fei Dan can stay with him for a few more years and not pass away so early.

"good."

Like Xi Fu, Master Fei Dan accepted the Yiqi Yannian Pill upon hearing that it was a welfare benefit from the Yuwu Palace.

As an alchemist, such things are very common and he has done them before.

…

"The Law Enforcement Hall is in turmoil. The Grand Hall Master has stepped down, the Second Hall Master has abdicated, and the Third Hall Master has taken over."

A few days later, a message spread throughout the Immortal Sect.

This was a big event. In one day, two big figures of the Law Enforcement Hall withdrew from the center of power. Chen Tianjiao took over the heavy responsibility, which can be said to be considerate of the younger generation.

But everyone knew that the two hall masters were forced to abdicate.

After all, the commotion that day was too loud.

The mountain where the entire Law Enforcement Hall is located is in turmoil, as if the earth veins have been cut off. The collision of horrifying magic spells causes the earth's energy to surge into the sky, and the movement can be seen ten miles away.

In the end, even the angry voices of the two law enforcement hall masters were heard.

Chen Tianjiao was seen standing on the sky, overlooking the mountains. He slapped down with one hand, as if the sky was falling and the earth was splitting apart. The two masters of the law enforcement hall were so shocked that they both held their breath.

That scene shocked countless young people and made many elderly people sigh at the passing of time and how the new generation is always replacing the old generation.

"I wish I could be like Chen Tianjiao."

"Young people are full of vigor and ambition, and they are so proud of themselves. How satisfying it is."

"From now on, there will be another powerful figure in my Guangxiu Immortal Sect."

"Has the era of succession between the old and the new arrived?"

…

A series of noisy voices were boiling. In the eyes of the younger generation, the three words "Chen Ergou" had become a kind of spiritual belief.

The boy is ignorant, but he takes off one day.

The dragon roars in the sky, and all directions bow their heads.

It took him only sixty-five years to go from a peasant to the head of the Immortal Sect's Law Enforcement Hall, completing a huge class leap.

This allows those of humble origins to see a goal to strive for, and having such a person will inspire them to keep moving forward.

"This guy doesn't have a hundred-year golden elixir, does he?"

On Laurel Peak, Wu Taisheng, who was already an inner sect elder, became somewhat withdrawn.

His achievements were already extraordinary among the previous inner disciples. At such a young age, he had already taken control of the inheritance of an entire peak.

But unfortunately, Chen Ergou appeared, shining brightly and completely overshadowing him.

“Hundred-year golden elixir!”

Zhao Tianyang gritted his teeth. Chen Ergou's rise was too rapid. He had already put all his strength into rushing up, but found that no matter what he did, he could not catch up with the running figure.

Thinking back to the time when that guy first came to the Immortal Sect, he was timid and submissive. Now, like the sun floating above the sky, he feels that this immortal world has gone crazy.

"Hundred-year golden elixir."

Liu Shao felt powerless and no longer had the heart to fight with Chen Ergou.

After experiencing a failure in building her foundation, she calmed down and realized that she and Chen Ergou were from two different worlds.

That guy, who achieved the Foundation Establishment stage at the age of 28, was now in the middle to late stage of the Foundation Establishment stage and defeated a cultivator who was in the Great Perfection stage of the Foundation Establishment stage. It was not surprising for her that he spent another 30 years to cultivate the Golden Elixir.

"That's a neat move."

Mr. Chen was not too surprised to hear the news, as Chen Ergou had told him a few days ago that there wanted to be a "change of dynasty."

All I can say is that Chen Ergou is worthy of being a genius. He always does what he says and can easily accomplish things that others cannot accomplish in their entire lives.

Another month passed.

"Master Chen, there is a man named Zhou outside who asked me to give this Qi Condensation Pill to you."

Outside the Heavenly King Palace, a servant came forward to report. He looked respectful and held a token in both hands, lifting it upwards.

"Deacon Zhou's descendants."

Chen Sheng took a look and understood the whole story. He said, "Let him in."

More than 20 years ago, he started to refine elixirs for the first time and made six Qi Condensing Pills. He gave one to Lu Zhu and the other two to Deacons Zhou and Mo, asking them to keep them and use them as a token of trust when they come back.

If it was Lu Zhu, she could just go straight into the Heavenly King Palace. The ones who needed to be notified were the descendants of the two retirement deacons who came to visit.

A few breaths later, two figures came into the Heavenly King Palace. One was a middle-aged man, steady and solemn, and the other was a young child with lively eyes, delicate and pretty appearance, very likable.

"Greetings, sir."

The middle-aged man Zhou Yichong, holding the hand of the young clan leader Zhou Lie, stepped into the medicine house and walked into the Heavenly King Hall. His heart was not as calm as he looked on the surface.

He saw the owner of this place, with a slender figure and gentle eyes. He did not look old at all, but still as young as a teenager, and very elegant.

After a glance, he lowered his head slightly, not daring to look directly at her, for fear of offending her.

After all, there is a huge difference in status between the two.

Since Master Chen assisted Master Shen in refining the Golden Elixir twenty years ago, his reputation has skyrocketed. After another twenty years of building up his reputation, his influence has become even greater.

Apart from the elder Shen from the medicine house, no one could surpass him in alchemy skills.

Looking at the entire outer sect, he is a big shot. Outside the Immortal Sect, he is an object of admiration for those small immortal cultivation families.

If it weren't for the friendship between him and the ancestor in the past, he wouldn't even have the chance to set foot in the Heavenly King Palace today. He was sent back before he even reached the door of the medicine house.

"I have a deep friendship with your ancestors, so you don't have to feel restrained."

Chen Sheng saw Zhou Yichong's restraint, smiled, expressed his goodwill, and then said: "Are you bringing this child here to fulfill the promise you made that year?"

Deacon Zhou had a favor to him, and they had reached an agreement on it back then. He could take the Qi Condensing Pill and send his clansmen to find him to learn the art of alchemy.

The descendants of the Zhou family came today. Zhou Yichong is old and obviously not suitable, so it can only be this little guy.

"Sir, this child is ignorant, but he has good talent. If you like him, please accept him."

When Zhou Yichong saw Mr. Chen and saw that he was friendly, he knew that this important man was still nostalgic. When he heard the question again, he knew that the matter was almost certain, and he could not help but respond excitedly.

"teacher!"

Below, Zhou Lie was also smart. He knelt down and called out crisply.

Chen Sheng looked at the little fellow, who was so cute and adorable, and whose temperament seemed to be well-behaved and sensible. He said, "Okay, you will practice with me from now on."

The cause yesterday is the result today.

Today he recognized Zhou Lie, ended the karma with Deacon Zhou, and also created a new karma.

"My Lord, this is his good fortune."

Seeing that the matter was accomplished, Zhou Yichong was extremely excited. He held Zhou Lie's head and kowtowed three times to Chen Sheng, thus establishing this master-disciple relationship.

When he walked, his feet were floating and he was obviously very happy.
