Chapter 339
"Mu Chen, your pill is almost ready, right?" Qu Kun asked.
Mu Chen nodded and said, "Yes! All the pills that can be refined have been refined."
He still had quite a few spiritual herbs left, but the herbs didn't match the pill recipe. Without a suitable recipe, he naturally couldn't refine the pill.
"Then don't refine it. Take it slow. Anyway, you can't finish eating all the eighth-level pills you refine." Qu Kun said after thinking for a while.
Mu Chen nodded and said, "Okay." Mu Chen intuitively felt that his alchemy skills had vaguely touched the bottleneck of the ninth level, so it would be a good idea to slow down.
Bai Chenxing and Ling Chuan looked at each other in bewilderment. They couldn’t even finish the eighth-level pills?
Bai Chenxing and Ling Chuan are the key training targets of the Bai family and the Ling family respectively. The two families have invested a lot of resources in them. However, it is very difficult for the Bai family and the Ling family to get things like eighth-level elixirs. They can't even finish eating all the eighth-level elixirs. Such treatment is something they dare not even think about.
Pills have a huge impact on the cultivation of cultivators. According to Muchen, there are several ninth-level alchemists in the Ming clan, which shows how powerful this clan is.
Now, they have no shortage of elixirs, and they have no shortage of time to stay in the Spirit Tower. Their cultivation has improved rapidly.
Ling Chuan put his hands behind his back and asked Muchen, "Muchen, since you're not in a hurry to refine pills now, are you interested in learning weapon refining from me?"
Mu Chen's expression lit up with joy, and he hurriedly said, "Grandpa is willing to teach me, of course I'd love it."
Among the five arts, Muchen's weapon refining technique is the weakest. If he has a ninth-level weapon refining master like Lingchuan to give him guidance, it will certainly be of great benefit.
To subdue the Five Spirits Tower, one needed to simultaneously reach the late eighth level in all five arts. His alchemy skills should have reached the required level by now. With Ling Chuan and Bai Chenxing around, refining equipment and forming formations wouldn't be a problem. The only things left were talismans and inscriptions.
Ling Chuan coughed twice and said, "Let me teach you the smelting method first. Once you learn this method, you won't have to worry about precious refining materials."
Throughout the ages, countless magical instruments have been discarded. Many of them are now unusable, and the materials used to refine them are hard to come by now.
Mu Chen nodded and said, "Okay!"
Qu Kun frowned and looked at Ling Chuan suspiciously, "Do you want to teach Mu Chen, or do you want to find a free laborer?"
Ling Chuan smiled and said, "Of course I'm doing this for Muchen, A-Kun. You always think such bad things of me. I'm really sad when you do this!"
Qu Kun clenched his fists and said, "He's a double-faced person. If you have the guts, don't let him burn the door!"
Ling Chuan smiled helplessly and said, "Mu Chen possesses the strange fire, so I think he will make rapid progress in learning the smelting method. Of course, the best way to test whether he can learn this method of refining weapons well is to see if he can burn the door." He had borrowed the strange fire from Mu Chen before. The strange fire was a kind of flame from heaven and earth, which was powerful and very powerful. However, he was not sure whether the fire recognized him as its master, so it was a little difficult to use.
Qu Kun sneered, and Ling Chuan saw Qu Kun's face full of sarcasm, so he smiled good-temperedly.
Qu Kun turned his head away and snorted coldly. Ling Chuan usually looked like a gentle and innocent rabbit, but in bed he turned into a ferocious tiger. He was a hypocrite and deserved death.
"A Kun, you've been quarreling with me lately. Could it be that you're pregnant? I heard that when you're pregnant, your temper will become very bad." Ling Chuan said innocently.
Qu Kun said coldly: "You are pregnant, but I am not yet..."
Ling Chuan looked at Qu Kun and said sincerely, "Ah Kun, don't be so self-deprecating. Your chances of getting pregnant are definitely greater than mine."
Qu Kun: “…”
…………
Mu Chen and others discussed it and decided to split into two groups. Mu Chen and Ling Chuan went to burn the door, Bai Chenxing, Ye Shi and Qu Kun went to break the formation, and Bai Chengfeng stayed in the spirit tower to look after the baby.
With Ling Chuan's guidance, Mu Chen's weapon-refining skills improved rapidly.
Ling Chuan watched the gate being disassembled, and a hint of admiration flashed in his eyes. Mu Chen's learning ability was amazing. For many things, he could quickly understand them after being told once.
When he was young, his understanding was amazing in the eyes of his elders, but it was still a little worse than Muchen.
Mu Chen's learning ability is too strong. If someone with Mu Chen's talent for refining weapons appeared in the clan, he would definitely be given special training.
Fortunately, this person is not an enemy. If he is an enemy, he would probably not be able to help but take action and strangle Mu Chen in the cradle.
Mu Chen retracted the strange fire and adjusted his vitality.
"Are you tired? Take a rest and continue." Ling Chuan said with his arms folded.
Mu Chen nodded and said, "Okay."
"I don't know what your grandpa Qu was thinking. He actually ran off with that pretty boy Bai Chenxing. What's so good about Bai Chenxing? He's a heartless man." Ling Chuan said with displeasure.
Mu Chen smiled and said, "Grandpa Qu trusts you. He knows that you are stronger than my father-in-law. He is worried that my father-in-law can't deal with that woman, so he went to help my father-in-law."
With the help of the eighth-level elixir, Qu Kun's cultivation progressed rapidly and he has already become a five-star martial master. If Zhuang Yaoyue appears, Qu Kun can help to some extent.
"Bai Chenxing is such a useless guy! He's such a grown-up, but he still needs A Kun's protection." Ling Chuan said with some dissatisfaction.
Mu Chen lowered his head and thought to himself: Qu Kun followed Bai Chenxing because Bai Chenxing's side was weaker, but his greater motivation was to avoid you! Ling Chuan's shameless ability was no weaker than his strength!
Ling Chuan looked at Mu Chen's expression and said, "Boy, what are you thinking about?"
Mu Chen raised his head, smiled, and said, "No, I didn't think about anything!"
Ling Chuan snorted coldly and said, "Hurry and open that door. If we can find the Holy Spirit Pill, Bai Chenxing should be able to move up a level. By then, your Grandpa Qu won't need to protect him anymore."
Mu Chen thought secretly: Grandpa Qu doesn't want to bother with you, that's why he doesn't want to bother with you. It has nothing to do with how strong Bai Chenxing is, and it has nothing to do with this matter.
Although he thought so in his heart, Mu Chen recovered some of his energy and began to melt the gate.
Ling Chuan placed his hand on the gate, a strange look flashing in his eyes. "Comparison is the thief of anger!" The last time he smelted the gate, it took him eight days. Judging from Muchen's progress, four days would be enough.
"The hole has opened." Mu Chen said.
"The aura of a ninth-level elixir, there is a ninth-level elixir here, it seems to be the aura of a Holy Spirit elixir, that's great, it's a bargain for that kid Bai Chenxing." Ling Chuan said with joy.
…………
At this moment, a sharp soul attack came, and Mu Chen frantically used his soul power to meet it.
Two powerful soul forces clashed fiercely.
Several level eight monsters pounced towards Mu Chen. Mu Chen looked at the monsters in the sky and smiled strangely.
"Shitou just happened to say he didn't have enough meat, but he didn't expect it to be delivered to his door."
Mu Chen waved his hand, and dozens of Sky-Devouring Worms pounced forward. In an instant, the swarm of Sky-Devouring Worms tore several level eight monsters into pieces.
There are only dozens of Sky-Devouring Worms left in Mu Chen's hands. Although there are only dozens of them, the power they exert is stronger than that of tens of thousands of them.
After the Sky-Swallowing Worms entered the Martial Sect level, they began to devour each other. After a fierce fight, the strongest Sky-Swallowing Worm was left behind.
The worst of these Sky-Swallowing Worms in Muchen's hands were at level seven, and the leading Sky-Swallowing Worms were all at level eight Martial Master.
Mu Chen looked at the sky-swallowing insects flying all over the sky and secretly felt lucky that the sky-swallowing insects finally devoured each other and only a few dozen were left. Otherwise, he would not be able to afford to keep them.
The Sky-Swallowing Worm that had devoured its own kind seemed to have mutated and was extremely ferocious. The several monsters released by Zhuang Yaoyue were no match for it at all.
Zhuang Yaoyue fought against Muchen's soul power for a long time, but found that she could not gain any advantage, so she had to retreat.
"That woman runs really fast." Ling Chuan said.
Mu Chen nodded and said, "Yes! Zhuang Yaoyue is much more cautious than Zhuang Tianyang."
"Why would such a smart woman act without knowing her own limitations?" Ling Chuan sneered.
"He can't hold it back anymore." Mu Chen muttered. Zhuang Yaoyue must have heard their conversation and knew that there was the Holy Spirit Pill within the sect, so she wanted to give it a try. After all, if Bai Chenxing took the Holy Spirit Pill, their strength would be even stronger.
"We're almost burning down her lair. No wonder she can't hold back anymore."
"Maybe." Mu Chen smiled brightly.
Ling Chuan looked at Mu Chen and said, "Your strength should be no less than that woman's."
Mu Chen smiled and said, "Grandpa, you're too kind. I'm a Martial Saint."
…………
Zhuang Yaoyue returned to the palace with an even gloomier expression.
Qiu Zhengrong and Mo Lixuan noticed that Zhuang Yaoyue's expression was getting gloomier day by day, and they didn't dare to say anything.
Zhuang Yaoyue clenched her fists. She was gifted with soul power, and her soul attacks were always effective. However, Muchen's soul power was no weaker than hers. Moreover, because Muchen possessed a strange fire, his soul power carried a flaming force, which had astonishing lethality.
Zhuang Tianyang is such a fool. If it weren't for this guy helping Mu Chen, how could Mu Chen's soul power become so strong?
Zhuang Yaoyue frowned. Two of the five palace gates had been burned by Muchen and Lingchuan. The fire was about to spread over them. This place was probably no longer safe.
Zhuang Yaoyue looked at Qiu Zhengrong and Mo Lixuan, sighed secretly in her heart, and thought: The enemy is strong and I am weak, I can only avoid the attack temporarily and make plans later.
…
Mu Chen's efficiency was extremely high. It took him three days to refine the third door. When the third door was opened, there was nothing inside except five corpses. The space rings on the corpses were gone.
When the fourth door was refined and opened, there was nothing inside, no people, no things.
"Gone."
"That woman must have known something in advance, so she took her people away."
Ye Shi frowned. The center of the palace was actually a small world. From the outside, it might be only the size of a room, but once you were inside, it was vast. If Zhuang Yaoyue took her people and hid in some secret place, it would be unlikely for them to find her.
Mu Chen lowered his head and said, "Since that woman is hiding, let's ignore her."
Ye Shi nodded and said, "Okay."
Mu Chen clenched his fists. As long as Zhuang Yaoyue was not dead, many of their secrets would be exposed. If Qiu Zhengrong and Mo Lixuan were not dead, they would probably stir up trouble again after they got out.
In fact, the strength of Qiu Zhengrong and Mo Lixuan is not a cause for concern, but their identities are too special. Most alchemists in the world respect them.
However, Zhuang Yaoyue was on guard, so it was no longer possible to kill them.
While Mu Chen was learning how to refine weapons from Ling Chuan, he was also trying to break down the gate. In the past three months, Mu Chen rescued the people from Dan Valley and Dan Ding Pavilion one after another. During this period, Zhuang Yaoyue never showed up, which made Mu Chen a little disappointed.
