Chapter 644: Chapter 445: Refining the Holy Pill Again, Three Tribulation Crossing Experts Fall?

Four Holy Pills were already quite a number—basically, every furnace had produced one Holy Pill, all the more proof that Lin Chang’sheng possessed the strength of a Holy Grade Alchemist.

"Can I go in for a look?"

Wu Gang’s heart was a mix of shock and delight.

It was absolutely the first time he’d ever seen a Holy Grade Elixir.

"Please, go ahead!"

Lin Chang’sheng invited Wu Gang, Alchemist Zhang, and the others inside. The rest of the disciples also swarmed in, afraid they might miss out on something big.

Inside the huge furnace, four Holy Pills radiated a sacred brilliance, Divine Patterns swirling around them. Waves of the pill’s fragrance spread, instantly making anyone near feel refreshed and clear-minded.

It even seemed like everyone’s cultivation had gotten a decent boost.

So the saying that just inhaling the scent of a great elixir can strengthen your cultivation was actually true.

But really, most people would never get the chance to see such a pill even once in their whole life.

Yet now, four Holy Grade Elixirs were quietly lying inside the furnace of the Divine Pill Pavilion.

"So this is the legendary Holy Pill?"

Wu Gang said in an excited voice, actually trembling as he spoke.

Lin Chang’sheng took out the four pills, handing two of them to Wu Gang.

"This pill is called the Divine Healing Pill. It can rapidly restore primordial power and heal wounds! These two are yours!"

According to Divine Pill Pavilion rules, after a Honored Guest Alchemist successfully refines a batch, half the elixirs belong to the Pavilion.

Otherwise, who would just hand you expensive medicinal ingredients for free?

"A single one of these pills is probably enough to help a Void Refining Cultivator directly break through a realm!"

Alchemist Zhang inhaled the rich aroma wafting off the Holy Pill.

The medicinal power locked inside this pill was indescribably thick.

He wasn’t wrong—back when Lin Chang’sheng was at the Early Stage of Integration, it was exactly by taking two Divine Healing Pills that he’d broken through his realm.

Though it had taken two, not just one.

So for a Void Refining Cultivator, a single Divine Healing Pill granting a breakthrough definitely checked out.

"He really managed to refine Holy Pills?"

Off to the side, Liu Siyue’s eyes were wide as saucers, her face full of disbelief.

It took at least a thousand years of expertise to even hope to refine a Holy Pill!

How could Lin Chang’sheng, at such a young age, possibly pull it off?

No matter how she tried, Liu Siyue simply couldn’t figure out how Lin Chang’sheng had achieved this.

Thinking back to when she’d actually dared to compete with Lin Chang’sheng in alchemy, Liu Siyue felt it was nothing short of laughable.

She, a mere Alchemy Apprentice, had challenged a Holy Grade Alchemist?

Wasn’t that like an ant trying to out-muscle an elephant? Out of her league, plain and simple.

And Lin Chang’sheng hadn’t even held it against her—in hindsight, she’d really been the one acting out of line.

In that moment, all her previous frustrations melted away, and even the way she looked at Lin Chang’sheng changed.

"I never expected Elder Lin could actually refine Holy Grade Pills. It’s truly an honor for our Divine Pill Pavilion!"

Wu Gang said, all but moved to tears with joy.

Someone so young, already a Holy Grade Alchemist—likely there’d be no rival even at the Pavilion’s Main Hall.

"You’re too kind, Alchemist Wu! Honestly, I was just lucky!"

Lin Chang’sheng replied modestly. "I’ll be heading to the Divine Pill Pavilion Main Hall tomorrow. If you have any questions about alchemy, feel free to ask while I’m here!"

"Then let me thank you in advance, Elder Lin! I really do have quite a few things I’d like to consult with you about!"

Wu Gang replied politely.

After a few more polite exchanges, Wu Gang chased all the disciples out of the alchemy room—he really did have a lot of questions about pill refinement to ask Lin Chang’sheng.

Liu Siyue wanted to say something, but ultimately kept quiet.

After a full day’s discussion, Wu Gang’s mastery of alchemy greatly improved.

He was steadily getting more and more comfortable with Second Grade Elixirs.

Early the next morning—

Lin Chang’sheng finished packing up, readying himself to head to the Divine Pill Pavilion Main Hall.

Just as he stepped out of his room, he found Liu Siyue waiting for him at the door.

That caught Lin Chang’sheng a bit off guard.

"Still trying to pick a fight with me?"

Lin Chang’sheng asked. If she wanted trouble, he was hardly afraid.

This girl was definitely no match for him.

"No, that’s not it—"

Liu Siyue, uncharacteristically awkward and hesitant, made Lin Chang’sheng feel a little out of sorts himself.

"If you have something to say, just say it. Dragging things out isn’t your style!"

Lin Chang’sheng asked, a bit perplexed—just what was this girl up to?

"I was wrong about before, but still—you’ve seen my body so I guess we’re even. Anyway, you’re not planning to run all over the place at the Main Hall, right?"

Liu Siyue finished, fixing Lin Chang’sheng with a serious look.

"I shouldn’t be going anywhere else. If I’m not at the Main Hall, I’ll probably be in the Immortal Palace. Why ask?"

Lin Chang’sheng asked, puzzled.

"Your alchemy is so amazing—I just hope when I go to the Main Hall in the future, I’ll get to see you again, maybe ask you a few things!"

As she spoke, Liu Siyue’s face gradually turned as red as a steamed bun.

"You’d better stick to studying the simple pills for now! With your impatience, I’m guessing you’d burn through all your ingredients before you learned anything with the advanced stuff."

Lin Chang’sheng joked.

Normally, Liu Siyue would’ve gotten heated at that.

But today, she unexpectedly didn’t argue with him at all.

"Alright, I’ll listen to you. Just don’t go running around the Main Hall, okay? When I have the chance, I’ll come find you!"

Liu Siyue mumbled, head low.

"Deal!"

Lin Chang’sheng replied right away. "If that’s all, I’ll get going!"

Hearing this, Liu Siyue felt a bit reluctant but couldn’t think of anything to say to make him stay.

After all, this little place couldn’t possibly hold someone like Lin Chang’sheng.

He belonged in the broader world outside.

"Safe travels!"

Liu Siyue waved goodbye to Lin Chang’sheng.

Which left Lin Chang’sheng completely baffled.

This girl’s mood changes faster than flipping a book.

Lin Chang’sheng gave a nod and a wave, then bid farewell to Wu Gang and the other alchemists before summoning the Lightning Thunderclap Eagle.

Screee—

The Lightning Thunderclap Eagle let out a long cry and soared straight into the sky.

The beast’s appearance instantly caused a commotion among the crowd.

Lin Chang’sheng leapt onto the back of the Lightning Thunderclap Eagle, taking to the air and vanishing into the distant horizon.

"Talents like him are truly one in a million!"

Wu Gang couldn’t help but sigh.

So long as Lin Chang’sheng didn’t fall, he’d definitely become a powerhouse in his own right one day.

His cultivation was so strong, and he even mastered alchemy. Using alchemy to cultivate martial strength—twice the results for half the effort.

"That depends on fate. With so much talent, if he has no means of protecting himself, it could all spell disaster."

Alchemist Zhang chimed in.

"If he had no means of self-protection, how could he have survived the Nine Great Sects hunting him together?"

Wu Gang replied.

"True, maybe I’m overthinking."

Alchemist Zhang laughed.

"I hope by the time my alchemy is up to scratch and I get to study at the Main Hall, I’ll see you again!"

Liu Siyue said silently in her heart.

Lin Chang’sheng was truly the most outstanding man she’d ever met.

Not only was he powerful in cultivation, his alchemy was off-the-charts—there were few in the whole world who could compare.

The Divine Pill Pavilion Main Hall was also in Immortal Sea Province, about three hundred thousand li away from Wangyue City.

If using a Teleportation Array, it’d only take two days to get there.

But Lin Chang’sheng didn’t want that; it would expose his location.

Anyway, the Lightning Thunderclap Eagle was fast—easily flying tens of thousands of li per day.

In about ten days, he could reach the Divine Pill Pavilion Main Hall.

Time slipped by, and five days passed in a flash.

That day, Lin Chang’sheng disguised himself as a middle-aged man and stopped to rest at an inn.

All around were cultivators from the Immortal Realm chatting away.

"Have you heard? The Nine Great Sects attacked the Immortal Palace and actually lost three Tribulation Crossing Stage powerhouses. All the Mahayana Elders fled! When did the Immortal Palace get so fierce?"

"I heard that too! Spirit Mountain called the other Eight Great Forces to denounce the Immortal Palace, yet in the end, they couldn’t kill Lin Chang’sheng. Instead, three tribulation experts died: He Jie from the Immortal Martial Hall, Long Ju from the Celestial Nether Sword Sect, and Spirit Mountain Daoist from Spirit Mountain—all top-tier cultivators! To just fall like that, it’s hard to believe!"

"Doesn’t that mean the Immortal Palace has made mortal enemies of the Nine Great Sects overnight?"

"Who knows! For now, at least, the Nine Great Sects don’t seem ready to gang up on the Immortal Palace again."

"And Lin Chang’sheng is really lucky—Nine Great Immortal Sects went all out, and they still couldn’t kill him!"

...

Around him, all the cultivators were talking about the events of half a month ago.

He Jie dying at Lin Chang’sheng’s hand—he already knew about that.

But news that Long Ju of the Celestial Nether Sword Sect and Spirit Mountain Daoist had also died really shocked Lin Chang’sheng.

Weren’t those two just severely injured at the time?

Could it be that someone else finished them off afterwards?
