153: Chapter 153 You're a Rank 6 Alchemist?!

Hu Miaotong

was Hu Liner's only Bloodline descendant, and she would not stand by and watch her own Bloodline descendant come to harm.

Even if the hope was slim, she had to try.

“Originally, I wanted to take her there myself, but the Ghost-Hell Horned Snake Clans have been a bit restless lately, so I must stay and guard the clan,”

Hu Liner said.

Within the Yao Race, the various major clans were not a monolithic block; for instance, the Purple Spirit Illusion Fox clan's enemies within the Yao Race were the Ghost-Hell Horned Snake Clan clan.

The Ghost-Hell Horned Snake Clan clan had always coveted the Purple Spirit Illusion Fox clan and Ku Mountain, wanting to occupy Ku Mountain and turn the Purple Spirit Illusion Foxes into their slaves and vassals.

The Purple Spirit Illusion Fox clan certainly would not yield to this. Since the strength of both sides was roughly equal, the Purple Spirit Illusion Fox clan would have to be insane to surrender.

Thus, the two races occasionally had frictions, though a large-scale war had not yet broken out.

Hu Liner had no way to take Hu Miaotong away, so she could only entrust her to Master Yun Hua.

Furthermore, the Yao Race was not entirely prohibited from entering the territories of the Human Race; to enter human lands, a human power needed to provide a guarantee for them.

However, not all human powers could provide a guarantee for the Yao Race; only those with practitioners in the Other Shore Realm could do so.

Yuanxu Mountain was certainly among them.

“I understand,”

Master Yun Hua nodded.

Master Yun Hua had no intention of refusing her friend's request and agreed.

“Thank you,”

Hu Liner said.

“From now on, follow all of Master Yun Hua's orders.”

Hu Liner looked at Hu Miaotong and spoke in an unquestionable tone.

“Yes.”

Hu Miaotong also nodded.

Hu Liner had already discussed this matter with her beforehand.

In order to completely eradicate the cold poison in her body, Hu Miaotong was willing to accept such an arrangement.

“Now, I'll leave her to you,”

Hu Liner said.

After some casual conversation, Master Yun Hua and the others left, with Hu Miaotong joining their group.

“She's in your hands,”

on the carriage, Master Yun Hua glanced at Lin Ming and said.

“Yes, Revered Master,”

Lin Ming said with a helpless expression.

He knew it would be like this.

Su Lianxue had basically been under his care since she joined, Yan Nian was also tossed to him after her entry, and now there was Hu Miaotong.

Lin Ming felt like he had become a nanny.

A month passed in a flash.

During this month, Su Lianxue's strength broke through to the 9th Layer of the Spirit Guidance Realm; it was estimated that she could step into the Sea Opening Realm after returning to the Sect.

Meanwhile, Lin Ming was thinking about whether he should fake a Breakthrough to raise his strength by another minor Realm.

Wanfu Chamber of Commerce

Wei Feng waited quietly, but his heart was anything but calm.

“Fellow Daoist Yan will come,”

Manager Huang Xing said to Wei Feng.

He knew that his old friend had almost emptied his entire fortune in order to step into the Domain of a 6th-rank Alchemist.

He only hoped that he would achieve his wish.

“Mm.”

Wei Feng only gave a slight nod.

“Manager, Revered Master Wei, Senior Yan has arrived.”

A beautiful woman walked in and spoke to the two of them.

The two immediately went to the reception room, where Lin Ming sat in a chair, drinking tea with a leisurely air.

“Fellow Daoist Yan, these are the Origin Stones I have prepared.”

Wei Feng walked up to Lin Ming, took out a Storage Ring and several Storage Pouches, and placed them on the table.

“A total of 20,000 High Grade Origin Stones, 260,000 Medium Grade Origin Stones, and 100,000 Low Grade Origin Stones.”

Wei Feng said with a solemn expression.

To be able to Breakthrough to a 6th-rank Alchemist, he had indeed brought out almost all of the resources he had accumulated over the years.

He only hoped that this time he could Breakthrough to a 6th-rank Alchemist.

“Fellow Daoist Wei is indeed very sincere.”

Lin Ming glanced at the Storage Ring on the table, set down his teacup, and said with a smile.

“Since Fellow Daoist Wei is so sincere, this deal is struck.”

Lin Ming said.

“However, for these Origin Stones, Fellow Daoist Wei should keep them for now. It won't be too late to hand them over to me after you have made your Breakthrough.”

Lin Ming said.

Seeing how sincere the other party was, Lin Ming accepted the deal.

“Then I wonder when your side's Alchemist will be able to guide me?”

Wei Feng said with a serious face.

“Where is the Alchemy Room?”

Lin Ming asked in return.

“There is an Alchemy Room within the chamber,”

Manager Huang Xing replied.

Since they were to guide Wei Feng, the other party would surely send an Alchemist over. In that case, they would very likely come into contact with the force behind Lin Ming.

Manager Huang Xing certainly couldn't miss out on this.

“Then take me there,”

Lin Ming said.

As soon as these words were spoken, both of them were stunned.

“Fellow Daoist Yan, what do you mean by this?”

Manager Huang Xing asked with some uncertainty.

“What do I mean? To guide Fellow Daoist Wei, of course. What else could I mean?”

Lin Ming glanced at Manager Huang Xing and said.

“Fellow Daoist Yan, are you a 6th-rank Alchemist?”

Wei Feng asked with some uncertainty.

“Why? Do I not look like one?”

Lin Ming said with a smile.

He was not just a 6th-rank Alchemist, but a 9th-rank Alchemist.

“No, it's just...”

For a moment, Wei Feng didn't know what to say.

He still didn't quite believe Lin Ming.

“Whether I am or not, we'll know after refining a batch,”

Lin Ming said.

Since they didn't believe his identity as an Alchemist, it was simple: he just had to prove it.

“Follow me.”

Seeing this, Manager Huang Xing led Lin Ming to the Alchemy Room with half-belief.

“Jade Phoenix Flower, Mind-Clearing Grass...”

Lin Ming called out a series of names of spiritual plants.

“Your Wanfu Chamber of Commerce should have these things, right?”

Lin Ming looked at Manager Huang Xing and said.

“A 6th-rank Medicinal Pill, the Bitter Turbid Pill.”

Through the names of these spiritual plants, Wei Feng immediately deduced the Medicinal Pill Lin Ming wanted to refine.

The Bitter Turbid Pill was the most common Medicinal Pill required for the cultivation of Bitter Sea Realm practitioners.

Although Wei Feng was not a 6th-rank Alchemist, he had collected a few 6th-rank Pill Formulas.

The Bitter Turbid Pill was one of them.

Since Lin Ming could accurately state the Pill Formula for the Bitter Turbid Pill, could he really be a 6th-rank Alchemist?

“Wait a moment.”

The Wanfu Chamber of Commerce did indeed have these spiritual plants, but it would take some time to gather them all.

A short while later, the spiritual plants were delivered to the three of them.

“Come in together,”

Lin Ming said to the two behind him as he carried the spiritual plants into the Alchemy Room.

“Can we?”

Wei Feng asked.

Generally, to protect their techniques and for various other reasons, Alchemists would take confidentiality measures during the Alchemy process. Unless it was a Legacy passed from Revered Master to disciple, they would not let others observe their Alchemy process.

“No need for that,”

Lin Ming said with extreme dominance.

It was just the refinement process of a 6th-rank Medicinal Pill.

As far as Lin Ming was concerned, there was no need for any secrecy.

Furthermore, he was supposed to help Wei Feng Breakthrough to a 6th-rank Alchemist. If he didn't come in, how could Lin Ming guide him?

Guide the air?
