Chapter 579 -586: Obsessed with Learning and Cannot Extricate Oneself! (First Update)

Upon hearing the scoundrel cat speak, everyone started looking at the cat in a way that implied, of course, that he was indeed a scoundrel cat. Their faces were filled with curiosity.

Little Fatty, most especially, had green eyes as soon as he realized that the scoundrel cat could really talk, which scared the scoundrel cat into glaring at him and scowling, “Damn it, Fatty, can’t you stop looking at me like that?”

Yang Zhen lifted the scoundrel cat from his shoulder and asked with furrowed eyebrows, “What were you shrieking about?”

The scoundrel cat paused, gasping, and said, “Right, I almost forgot what was important. Damn it, kid, guess what I just saw?”

“What?” Yang Zhen seemed surprised and asked curiously.

Although the scoundrel cat was unreliable, his penchant for stirring up trouble was hard to change. Something must have shocked him to have surprised him like that.

“Pill Ghost. I just saw a ghost pill, not too far away. Damn, it scared the fur off me!”

“A Pill Ghost?” Yang Zhen exclaimed in surprise, “What is a Pill Ghost?”

“A Pill Ghost means Ghost Pill Master!” GuanGuan, curious as she looked at the scoundrel cat, asked, “Did you see the Ghost Pill Master? Where is he?”

The scoundrel cat exclaimed in surprise, looking at GuanGuan, “Little girl, you actually know about pill ghosts?”

Mei Chaofen’s gloomy gaze fixed on the scoundrel cat. Only after hearing GuanGuan did it dawn on her, she asked sternly, “Pill Ghost? Could it be that the Ghost Pill Master has become a Pill Ghost?”

What the hell?

Yang Zhen looked at the scoundrel cat in confusion. This ‘Pill Ghost’ sounded more daunting than the Ghost Pill Master. What was it?

Inhaling deeply, the scoundrel cat suddenly widened his eyes and blurted out, “Kid, you’re not planning to outmatch the Pill Ghost in pill concoction, are you?”

“How did you know?” Yang Zhen was alarmed. The scoundrel cat was growing smarter and smarter. How could he anticipate everything?

Could it be that the scoundrel cat had been eavesdropping?

No way!

Yang Zhen narrowed his eyes and zeroed in on the scoundrel cat, “Speak up, how did you know? Also, what is a Pill Ghost that scares you like this?”

The scoundrel cat rolled his eyes and retorted, “What’s so strange about that? In the entire Heavenly Snow Holy Domain, only this little girl’s mastery in pill concoction runs so deep. If she clashes with the Pill Ghost, she is courting death. As for you, if you don’t want to reveal your identity, you could manage to keep an iceberg quiet. Now that everyone knows you are Yang Zhen, there can only be one possibility…”

Pausing for a moment, the scoundrel cat added smugly, “Except for the situation where you would reveal your identity yourself, intending to confront the Pill Ghost as Yang Zhen, I can’t think of any other reason. Kid, should I keep talking?”

Listening to this, Yang Zhen marveled at the scoundrel cat’s acuity, all the while giving him a strange look. This scoundrel was becoming smarter and smarter, even capable of deduction now.

The rest of the folks, however, were looking at the scoundrel cat with a completely shocked expression as the cat’s shrewdness had taken them by surprise.

“Motherfucker, if a cat can be so scheming, just how terrifying would Yang Zhen be?” Little Fatty looked at Yang Zhen in disbelief, an uncanny look in his eyes.

Mei Chaofen watched the scoundrel cat, her face awash with incredulity. As her eyes flickered, her complexion became more and more dubious, seemingly reminded of something.

“Kid, even though your skills in pill concoction are quite decent, the Pill Ghost is just too deranged. You would do best by being careful, otherwise, it might capsise the boat in the drain.” the scoundrel cat advised.

Yang Zhen inquired hesitantly, “Deranged? Is the Pill Ghost actually a ghost?”

The scoundrel cat responded with a smirk, “In this world, there are no such things as ghosts. But if you insist on calling it a ghost, it’s not completely wrong. The Pill Ghost, in fact, cannot be considered a human anymore, because he has transformed himself into a pill!”

“What the hell?”

“Motherfucker,” Yang Zhen cursed, staring at the scoundrel cat with an odd look. “He can turn himself into a pill? What’s it like, is it round?”

The Cheap Cat grinned and said, “See for yourself. Damn, no wonder I saw that bastard Fang Zhongjian hanging out with the Pill Ghost. This Pill Ghost had already cultivated to the level of the Tri-Floral Pill Ghost, equivalent to the peak of an Alchemy Grandmaster. If you want to compete with him, it’s best not to do it in his specialty.”

“What’s the Pill Ghost’s specialty?” Yang Zhen asked seriously.

Although he didn’t know what the Tri-Floral Pill Ghost was, an alchemy grandmaster was extremely terrifying, able to make pills out of thin air. It was more terrifying than that little girl GuanGuan. Almost nothing in the world that this guy can’t refine, of course… that was the stuff of legend.

If he could really refine anything, then what’s the point of it all? However, since he could refine himself into a pill, maybe this guy really was as insane as the Cheap Cat said!

Thinking of this, Yang Zhen’s heart suddenly leapt. He recalled a decidedly malicious technique for refining pills from the notes of the Medicine Madman: refining oneself into a pill. This way, the process of pill refining would be more efficient and this method would stop at nothing to make pills, even resorting to using infant’s blood as a catalyst. What a heinous technique!

Damn, could there really be such crazies in this world?

The Heavenly Spring Sacred Land, none of them are good birds, actually colluding with such a person.

In the following day, Yang Zhen and the Cheap Cat chatted non-stop and finally understood what the Pill Ghost was all about.

After that, Yang Zhen enclosed himself in the already repaired Apricot Flower Residence for a whole day. During this day, Yang Zhen saw no one and was concentrated on comprehending the handnotes of the Medicine Madman. Once he had a firm grasp, Yang Zhen immersed himself in the art of pill refining. He did so for two days straight.

So damn satisfying!

Yang Zhen had never felt this way before. He found learning really interesting and was almost addicted.

Darn it, it turns out that learning isn’t boring, but not being able to learn anything is.

With Yang Zhen’s current talent, once he put his mind to it, there was really nothing he couldn’t learn.

…

The Plum Blossom Sky entered a phase of calmness and both the Heavenly Snow Holy Domain and the Heavenly Spring Sacred Land ceased their feuds. It seemed like everything had finally returned to normal.

However, within this calmness, everyone’s emotions were brewing.

Yang Zhen was going to compete with the Ghost Pill Master in terms of pill refining. This competition not only concerned life, reputation, but also who, between the Heavenly Snow Holy Domain and the Heavenly Spring Sacred Land, would have the upper hand in the subsequent explorations.

Early the next morning, the vast Heavenly Snow Holy Domain was crowded with people. Everyone had arrived at the Pill Contest Field in the Heavenly Snow Holy Domain.

Next to Fang Zhongjian, Feng Lingqiao looked worriedly at the crowd from the Heavenly Snow Holy Domain. Fang Zhongjian smiled and said, “What’s wrong, are you worried about Yang Zhen?”

Feng Lingqiao glared at Fang Zhongjian and said, “What about you? Are you scared?”

Fang Zhongjian burst into laughter and turned his attention to the individual beside him who was shrouded completely in a black cloak, “Did you hear that? This little girl thinks I’m scared.”

Under the cloak, the individual’s real face couldn’t be seen. Even the voice was ambiguous, making it difficult to determine the gender. It sounded incredibly strange when they spoke, “You mean… how would Yang Zhen react if I used this little girl’s blood to refine an Ocean Opening Pill?”

Upon hearing the Ghost Pill Master’s words, Fang Zhongjian’s expression changed. He glanced at Feng Lingqiao, who had turned pale, and laughed as he shook his head, “I’d advise you against that.”

“Hmm?” The Ghost Pill Master was taken aback, he sneered and asked, “Why not?”

Fang Zhongjian laughed heartily and said, “With your current technique, defeating that youngster Yang Zhen would be easy, so why aggrieve him?”

The Ghost Pill Master pondered for a moment and spoke, “This little girl is right, you are scared. But I don’t understand, why are you afraid?”

“Why?”

Fang Zhongjian’s eyes sparkled with an absurd look, he replied, “You don’t understand how terrifying that bastard Yang Zhen really is.”
