Chapter 1423: Chapter 699: Mysterious Elder, Using the Seven-Colored Spiritual Pearl for Alchemy!

They looked at the ravaged cave, knowing it was no longer safe here.

"We must leave here as soon as possible," Luo Chen said.

Qing Shuang nodded, knowing Luo Chen was right. The temptation of the seven-colored spirit pearl was too great; they had to leave this place quickly.

Otherwise, if they were targeted by other cultivators, it would be a real problem.

...

In the blink of an eye, several days passed.

Outside White Elephant City, a man and a woman dressed in tattered robes with traces of dust on their faces silently walked towards the huge city with heads lowered.

These two were naturally Luo Chen, who had obtained the seven-colored spirit pearl, and his close friend Qing Shuang.

"Who are you two?"

"What are you doing in White Elephant City?"

The guard at the city gate looked at the pair in front of him and squinted slightly as he inquired.

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang exchanged a glance, knowing that it was crucial to remain calm and not cause unnecessary trouble at this moment.

"We are travelers from afar, and we have heard of the prosperity of White Elephant City and came to see for ourselves," Luo Chen replied calmly.

The soldier scrutinized them, seeming to assess the truth of their words.

Finally, he nodded, signaling they could enter the city.

"Go in, but remember, any unlawful acts in White Elephant City will not be tolerated. You will bear the consequences."

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang exchanged glances again, nodded slightly, and then slowly entered the bustling city.

Inside White Elephant City, the streets were bustling with people, shops lined either side, and the cries of vendors filled the air.

They weaved through the crowd and arrived at an inn that appeared to be quite tranquil.

"What can I get for you?" The innkeeper’s wife came up with a beaming smile.

"We’d like two upper rooms, and if it’s convenient, we’d also like to inquire about some information," Luo Chen replied.

The innkeeper’s wife nodded and motioned for them to follow her upstairs.

After their rooms were arranged, she returned to the counter, and Luo Chen and Qing Shuang followed her.

"What information do you want to know?" The innkeeper’s wife asked curiously.

"We’ve heard that there’s a master in White Elephant City skilled in creating various spirit pills, and we wonder if you could tell us where he resides?" Qing Shuang asked cautiously.

Upon hearing this, the innkeeper’s wife showed a hint of hesitation, looked around, and then lowered her voice, saying, "You must be talking about Pill Saint Elder Chen. His dwelling is not a secret, but meeting him is not easy."

"His temper is peculiar, and not just anyone gets to see him."

Upon hearing this, Luo Chen and Qing Shuang felt a slight sinking in their hearts but still thanked the innkeeper’s wife politely.

They knew that meeting Pill Saint Elder Chen would likely require some effort.

After resting at the inn for a night, Luo Chen and Qing Shuang decided to wander around the city and gather more information about Pill Saint Elder Chen.

They arrived at the city market, bustling with crowds, where stalls were piled high with dazzling goods.

"Come and see, the finest spirit grass that can help cultivators enhance their cultivation!" a vendor shouted loudly.

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang stopped in their tracks, showing interest in the spirit grass.

After some bargaining, they purchased a few stalks of what seemed to be high-quality spirit grass.

At that moment, a ragged old man suddenly appeared before them, his eyes fixed on the spirit grass in Luo Chen’s hand.

"Young man, the spirit grass in your hands is nice, but if you don’t know how to use it, it’s just a waste," the old man said in a hoarse voice.

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang were taken aback; they didn’t expect someone to initiate a conversation.

Luo Chen responded politely, "Sir, you seem to have extensive knowledge in this area. Would you be able to enlighten us?"

The old man smiled and said, "I know a bit, but I have a condition."

"What’s the condition?" Qing Shuang asked curiously.

"I need some rare materials for alchemy. If you can help me find them, I’ll tell you how to use the spirit grass," the old man said.

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang exchanged a knowing glance, understanding that this might be an opportunity.

Thus, they agreed to the old man’s request and set a meeting for three days later.

In the following days, Luo Chen and Qing Shuang began to search for the materials the old man needed both inside and outside of White Elephant City.

After enduring many hardships, they finally collected all the items within the agreed time.

Three days later, they arrived as scheduled at the old man’s dwelling.

Upon seeing the materials they brought, a trace of approval flashed in the old man’s eyes.

"Not bad, you are indeed sincere," the old man said.

Then, the old man began to teach Luo Chen and Qing Shuang the uses of the spirit grass, and shared some cultivation secrets with them.

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang listened intently and benefited greatly.

Under the old man’s guidance, Luo Chen and Qing Shuang’s cultivation improved significantly again.

They were overflowing with gratitude towards the old man.

"Sir, may we know what to call you?" Luo Chen asked respectfully.

The old man chuckled and said, "I’m just a reclusive alchemist living here. You can call me Elder Chen."

Upon hearing this, Luo Chen and Qing Shuang were shocked. The unassuming old man before them was actually the Pill Saint Elder Chen they had been seeking!

"Elder Chen, we have a request," Qing Shuang mustered the courage to say.

Elder Chen nodded, indicating her to continue.

"We hope you could help us concoct an elixir that can assist us in breaking through our bottleneck," Qing Shuang said.

Having listened, Elder Chen pondered for a moment, then slowly spoke, "I can help you refine it, but such an elixir requires the seven-colored spirit pearl as one of the main ingredients. Do you have it?"
