Chapter 695: Learning Alchemy
Luo Li asked, "Senior, are you from the Continent of Gods?"
The strong are always confident. The cloaked man nodded calmly, "Yes, so what?"
Luo Li raised her voice and emphasized, "We are here to participate in the competition. We are on a completely different path from our predecessors."
The cloaked man chuckled softly, his laughter carrying a hint of disapproval and arrogance. "A competition? What does that have to do with me?"
Luo Li felt that she had made herself clear, so she directly pointed out, "Senior, is there something you want to do with us? Otherwise, I don't think a group of Soul Emperors like us are worthy of your following."
A glint flashed across the cloaked man's eyes, and he said calmly, "There are many big guys in this secret realm. Did you know?"
Luo Li nodded, "I've encountered one before."
"I can protect you..." The cloaked man paused and continued, "But I have one condition."
Luo Li's eyes flashed. This man was a genuine Seven-Star Emperor. Even the Purgatory Blood Dragon was definitely no match for him. If he could be brought in to escort them...
She looked up and found it, "I don't know what conditions you have, senior. I think we can have a good talk."
The cloaked man liked smart people, so he asked directly, "Did you make that elixir?"
Luo Li thought he wanted more pills, after all, his wounds had not yet healed completely, "Yes, if Senior wants more pills..."
Before she finished speaking, the cloaked man shook his head and said, "No, I want to learn alchemy from you."
"Huh?" Luo Li, Di Xuanming and the others were all stunned. "Learning alchemy?"
The cloaked man nodded affirmatively, "Yes, alchemy."
He just didn't believe it. Did he really not have the talent for alchemy?
His junior fellow apprentice also said that he had no talent, but now he has become the number one alchemist in the continent, right?
He felt that he just hadn't found a good master.
That’s right!
Luo Li smiled slightly and said, "It's no problem to teach you how to make pills, but even if you follow us for more than a month, I'm afraid you won't be able to make any high-level pills."
The cloaked man naturally knew that nothing could be achieved overnight, so he nodded immediately and said, "I know, you don't have to worry about that."
Luo Li's mind raced as she suggested, "How about this, Senior? I'll give you three more bottles of that elixir. You'll just follow us for a month, and we won't let you take action unless absolutely necessary. How do you think?"
When the cloaked man heard this, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, and then he readily agreed.
The healing effect of the elixir was beyond even the emperor-level elixir, so he naturally wouldn't refuse it.
He had a normal understanding of his own strength. Even though his strength had decreased a lot after being pulled into the secret realm, he was still considered a top fighter in this secret realm. He deserved some compensation for protecting a group of hundred-year-old little guys.
Luo Li took out three exquisite small porcelain bottles from her sleeves, and opened them gently. The bottles shone with a warm luster, as if they contained endless mysteries.
The cloaked man slowly put away the porcelain bottle, his figure seeming to blend into the light and shadow. "Thank you very much, young friend."
Feng Jiusi was a brave man. He smiled and said, "I don't know your surname, senior. Could you tell us?"
Otherwise, it would be a bit strange that they keep calling him the cloaked man.
The cloaked man was always confident about his name. He raised his chin and said, "My name is Feng Yan."
"Oh——" Luo Li and the others had no expression and only said, "Senior Feng!"
Feng Yan was secretly annoyed, having forgotten that this was not the Continent of Gods.
He cleared his throat, "Where are you going?"
Emperor Xuanming said, "I'm about to go deeper into the canyon to see if I can run into other contestants."
Feng Yan nodded, "Let's go, while it's still early."
He glanced at Luo Li, narrowed his eyes and said, "Of course, after nightfall, this young friend must remember what he promised me."
"Of course I won't forget." Luo Li took out an ancient book and handed it over. "Before we officially begin, please take a look at this book first."
Feng Yan raised his eyebrows slightly under his cloak, took the ancient book and nodded, "I understand."
Luo Li and the others turned around and continued to move forward, while Feng Yan sat on his flying spiritual device and followed the team not far away.
The sun shone on the winding canyon path. Luo Li and her group walked steadily on the path made of gravel and moss.
The tip of Emperor Xuanming's sword occasionally tapped the ground, making a crisp sound. Feng Yan sat on his flying spiritual weapon, which was a spiritual weapon shaped like a phoenix, with its wings spread lightly, as if it could take off with the wind at any time.
He lowered his head and flipped through the ancient book given to him by Luo Li. His face under the cloak appeared and disappeared from time to time, revealing an indescribable concentration.
At night, the team set up camp casually. In order to learn alchemy, Feng Yan would usually clear out all the magical beasts around, and those above the Soul Emperor level would be captured and handed over to Luo Li.
In just seven days, Feng Yan was already able to refine the lowest grade of elixirs.
Although Luo Li was not very satisfied, she obviously would not say it directly, but Feng Yan was already quite satisfied.
After all, he has been learning alchemy here for more than three months, but he hasn't made a single pill yet.
Seven days later, it was night.
The moonlight washed over the camp, and the surroundings were covered with a layer of light silver gauze.
Luo Li sat around the campfire, gently holding a glowing pill in her hand. She carefully rubbed it with her fingertips and said with a smile, "This is a top-grade seventh-level pill. Senior has improved again."
Feng Yan couldn't suppress a smile on his face hidden under his cloak. He coughed lightly and said, "It's okay, it's okay. My friend is indeed very skilled in alchemy."
Not far away, a captured Soul Emperor-level monster that Luo Li had not yet tamed growled, but was firmly trapped in the barrier set up by Feng Yan, and could only stare unwillingly at this peaceful little world.
Feng Yan glared at the monster, and the monster shut up obediently. He stood up and said, "Then I will try to refine the eighth-level pill."
Luo Li nodded, "Okay, if you have any questions, please come to me."
"good."
Feng Yan went to his tent to make the elixir, but by the campfire, the others looked unhappy.
Luo Li pursed her lips and said, "It's been almost half a month, and we haven't met anyone yet."
"Yeah." Qin Chuan also felt strange. "We clearly encountered several teams at the beginning, but how come fourteen days have passed and we haven't encountered anyone except Senior Feng Yan?"
Yu Xuanning frowned. "Is this secret realm really that big? We haven't encountered any contestants from so many realms, or are we just unlucky and have only walked through deserted places?"
Luo Li's gaze passed through the flickering firelight and looked into the deep darkness in the distance, and an inexplicable uneasiness surged in her heart.
Emperor Xuanming gripped the hilt of the sword tightly, his brows furrowed, as if he was thinking about something.
