107: Yao Chen is resurrected!

Chapter 107: Yao Chen's Resurrection!

"I know you are an Eighth-Grade Alchemist, but I presume Young Master Lu's daily alchemy consumption is also quite terrifying, isn't it? If you had an ally to provide the resources you need for alchemy, it would probably be a bit easier."

"Although Falling Star Pavilion isn't particularly strong, it has many Alchemists, and the medicinal ingredients in its treasury are basically impossible to find elsewhere."

Yao Chen and Venerable Feng continued.

It must be said that Falling Star Pavilion was truly sincere this time; as an ally, it made no demands, only offerings.

At the same time, due to the Alchemists in Falling Star Pavilion, the richness and variety of medicinal ingredients in its treasury were self-evident.

The olive branch extended would be difficult for an ordinary Alchemist to refuse.

However, Lu Chuan was still thinking.

His eyes suddenly lit up, and he looked at a woman standing behind Venerable Feng.

Mu Qingluan looked only eighteen or nineteen years old, dressed in green, with a pair of bright, watery eyes that made her appear exceptionally adorable… Her cheeks still seemed to hold a trace of youthfulness and innocence, full of spiritual energy.

Venerable Feng followed Lu Chuan's gaze and was met with Mu Qingluan's innocent little face.

Venerable Feng's expression suddenly darkened; although Lu Chuan said nothing, such an action in this setting was enough to make people's imaginations run wild.

Considering Lu Chuan's recent exploits of taking two concubines...

His suspicions grew even more credible!

Facing Lu Chuan's gaze, Mu Qingluan, possessing a diary duplicate, naturally knew that this fellow was a big playboy.

He was dashing, handsome, and incredibly powerful, yet also extremely flirtatious, making women both frustrated and fond of him.

Mu Qingluan understood that Lu Chuan must have taken a liking to her. For the sake of the bigger picture, she proactively offered to become Lu Chuan's maid.

The reason she chose to be a maid was because Mu Qingluan understood that even the young miss of Burning Flame Valley could only be a concubine; her status would probably be similar to Tang Huo'er's. If that was the case, she might as well be Lu Chuan's first maid.

At the same time, Mu Qingluan had actually been very curious about the man in the diary for a long time.

What woman wouldn't be fond of someone so young with such strength and talent?

Mu Qingluan was no exception. Since ancient times, beauties have loved heroes, and if she had the chance to marry Lu Chuan, she would not refuse.

Now was the perfect opportunity to go with the flow, allowing Falling Star Pavilion to build a good relationship with Lu Chuan, which clearly had more benefits than drawbacks.

"Young Master Lu's reputation precedes him; this humble one has admired you for a long time. Qingluan only wishes to be a maid, to accompany Young Master Lu. Would that be acceptable?" Mu Qingluan said to Lu Chuan with genuine sincerity.

The young girl's figure was graceful, her waist slender and delicate, easily encircled. Her green dress made her appear lively and adorable. If she had spoken to any man other than Lu Chuan, probably few would be able to refuse!

Since a beauty was actively throwing herself into his arms, refusing again would seem a bit affected.

Lu Chuan nodded. Although he liked beautiful women, he would treat all the women who followed him sincerely, at least providing them with all sorts of cultivation resources and techniques!

Since Mu Qingluan proactively offered to be his maid, Lu Chuan certainly wouldn't let her live worse than she did at Falling Star Pavilion.

As an Eighth-Grade Alchemist at the peak, occasionally guiding her and taking time to refine some cultivation pills would be effortless.

This was also what made Lu Chuan different. If it were anyone else on the Dou Qi Continent with his talent, they would definitely not be this approachable, let alone guide a maid.

Although Mu Qingluan's talent was high, there were countless other proud daughters of heaven like her outside, all infatuated with Lu Chuan...

"Thank you, Young Master Lu, for your kindness!" Mu Qingluan said with a smile in her eyes.

She could finally be by Lu Chuan's side!

Mu Qingluan was about to be with the man she admired, and even with her temperament, her pretty face was flushed, and her beautiful face, like a flower, showed a charming blush.

Venerable Feng, standing by, had mixed feelings, but being able to befriend Lu Chuan was a good thing for Falling Star Pavilion.

Furthermore, although Lu Chuan was dashing, the young man was indeed generous to the women around him and had never mistreated them. For Mu Qingluan, it was also a good outcome.

Although Mu Qingluan was only going to be a maid by Lu Chuan's side, this little girl's feelings for Lu Chuan were almost common knowledge.

Venerable Feng had no intention of stopping her.

Just like that, Mu Qingluan got her wish, and Falling Star Pavilion befriended the genius Lu Chuan without paying any price.

This news quickly spread across the continent shortly after.

And Lu Chuan and Falling Star Pavilion did not hide it!

Pill Tower, Saint Pill City.

Xuan Kongzi stroked his beard in silence. He stood in place for a moment, then said thoughtfully, "Lu Chuan, this prodigy, was originally the champion of the Pill Gathering. I had intended to represent the Pill Tower and befriend him, but I didn't expect someone else to get there first."

"Next, I'm afraid many forces will emulate Falling Star Pavilion. Lu Chuan is an Eighth-Grade Alchemist at such a young age; his future achievements are simply unimaginable."

"Since we cannot draw him into the Pill Tower, then we must befriend him and absolutely not offend him!"

"Alright, we'll do as you say. Although Lu Chuan is not a member of the Pill Tower, all the Alchemist's handbooks and medicinal ingredients in the Tower will be open to him," Xuan Yi added, her brows slightly furrowed.

"That is natural," Xuan Kongzi nodded in agreement.

The others also agreed with Xuan Yi and Xuan Kongzi's decision.

With Lu Chuan's status as an Eighth-Grade Alchemist, he would never lack alchemy materials.

As for the Alchemist's handbooks in the Tower, although the collection was vast, for a high-level Alchemist, they were merely better than nothing.

If the Pill Tower had given these Alchemist's handbooks to Lu Chuan when he was at a lower level, he would probably have felt indebted to the Pill Tower.

Because this represented a vast amount of Alchemist experience, which could save a low-level Alchemist many detours.

Although Alchemists mostly rely on practice, mastering enough experience can also make one's skill progress rapidly.

For Lu Chuan, now an Eighth-Grade Alchemist, their effect was not as great; at most, they would allow him to draw inferences from one case to another, as understanding one path makes all paths clear.

One type is adding flowers to the brocade, while the other is sending charcoal in the snow!

And adding flowers to the brocade is ultimately not as good as sending charcoal in the snow!

Although Lu Chuan did not plan to join the Pill Tower, the people of the Pill Tower also did not plan to guard against Lu Chuan. For Alchemists, they could even tolerate people from the Hall of Souls...

Let alone a genius above Alchemists like Lu Chuan!

And besides the Pill Tower, the One Hall, One Tower, Two Valleys, Three Sects, and Four Directions Pavilion all took action.

Except for the Hall of Souls, most forces chose to befriend Lu Chuan.

This basically represented most of the forces on the Dou Qi Continent; it could be said that Lu Chuan was already worth the entire continent's appeasement!

Flower Sect, because it only recruits female disciples, the disciples in the Flower Sect are not low in appearance, looking exceptionally beautiful.

At this moment, Granny Hua, the current Sect Master of the Flower Sect, decided to send people to befriend Lu Chuan after learning about him.

Even though her sect still hid two Half-Saints, and she herself was at the peak of Dou Zun cultivation, an Eighth-Grade Alchemist was simply too precious.

If they could befriend him, breaking through to Half-Saint might not be impossible.

As Granny Hua took action, in the back mountain of the sect, amidst a brilliant sea of flowers, it felt as if one were in the deep ocean, with waves of flowers surging. A white-robed figure stood at the very center of the sea of flowers.

"An Eighth-Grade Alchemist? How young..." a Half-Saint, who had connections with Venerable Yao, murmured to himself.

If Yao Chen were still alive, his achievements would probably be no lower than Lu Chuan's.

What a pity...

A sigh slowly escaped the old man's mouth, distant and lonely.

.......

The winds and clouds stirred!

All major forces carried various precious treasures, preparing to appease Lu Chuan, solely to form an alliance with him.

Lu Chuan, still in the Lingxiao Palace, was unaware of all this commotion. He had no intention of dealing with these matters. After taking Mu Qingluan as his maid, the very next day, he had this delicate and charming little beauty warm his bed.

After all, the little beauty was looking at him with such anticipation, Lu Chuan felt as if she would be incredibly resentful if he didn't touch her...

He couldn't resist!!

The next morning, Lu Chuan slowly got up.

In the main hall, Yao Chen looked as if he had something to say but hesitated. Lu Chuan, who had taken all this in, was in a particularly good mood today.

"You want me to help you refine the Life Bone Blood Melting Pill? I'm in a good mood today, so I'll help you this once," Lu Chuan said slowly.

He had a good impression of the original Yao Chen. Moreover, Mu Qingluan was, after all, from Falling Star Pavilion, and Yao Chen was the former Pavilion Master of Falling Star Pavilion.

Helping him once wouldn't hurt!

Yao Chen, who was originally a bit hesitant to speak, was stunned by Lu Chuan's words.

How could it be so simple...?

He had thought he would have to pay a heavy price. For this matter, his old friend Venerable Feng had even brought out all of Falling Star Pavilion's hidden treasures, but he didn't expect Lu Chuan to ask for nothing.

He only asked them to provide the materials for refining the pill, and in return, they would be responsible for his future alchemy materials.

This was not a difficult task.

Refining the Life Bone Blood Melting Pill, that's all. Although it was an Eighth-Grade pill, Lu Chuan was an Alchemist capable of refining top-tier Eighth-Grade pills.

It didn't take much effort. When Lu Chuan emerged from the alchemy room with the pill in hand, Yao Chen still hadn't fully recovered.

"Thank you, Little Friend Lu!" Yao Chen carefully took the pill, placing it in a pre-prepared jade box. He said, tears of gratitude streaming down his face.

With this pill, his resurrection was imminent!

He was only one step away from reconstructing his physical body.

Indeed, befriending Lu Chuan was the right choice; he never mistreated his own people.

Lu Chuan led Yao Chen towards the Plaza. His expression was calm, his demeanor elegant, and his aura was not weak. Dressed in white, he appeared like a refined young master, with a gentle temperament and the full bearing of a powerful expert.

Yao Chen, behind him, was a bit bewildered. He didn't know where Lu Chuan was taking him.

However, if the other party needed him to do anything, Yao Chen, who had just received a Life Bone Blood Melting Pill from Lu Chuan, would definitely do everything in his power to complete it.

Are you kidding? This was a life-saving grace!

Given Yao Chen's character, he would certainly do everything to help Lu Chuan.

It's just that he was currently only a wisp of a remnant soul. If Lu Chuan truly needed his help, he probably wouldn't be able to contribute much. Even Yao Chen's strength in his lifetime was at most that of a Dou Zun.

And Lu Chuan was a Dou Saint; the gap was more than just a little.

This also highlighted Yao Chen's valuable qualities. He was inherently of excellent character, and he helped those he recognized and his benefactors without expecting anything in return. It was precisely because of this that he was able to make a true friend like Venerable Feng, who tirelessly searched for Yao Chen's whereabouts for decades.

However, Yao Chen felt that Lu Chuan's current demeanor didn't suggest he wanted him to do anything.

"Little Friend Lu, where are you taking me?" Yao Chen asked, puzzled.

"To help you resurrect," Lu Chuan said indifferently. He turned to glance at Yao Chen. Why did this old man seem so dull?

Was he the kind of person who only did things halfway?

Since he was helping someone, he would definitely help all the way!

Coincidentally, a few days ago, he had casually killed a Half-Saint expert, and their remains could be used to reconstruct a new body for Yao Chen.

It's just that the corpse was stored in the Plaza, as it was, after all, the body of a Half-Saint.

With Lu Chuan's help, Yao Chen only needed to take the Life Bone Blood Melting Pill, and with the remains of a Half-Saint expert, he could reconstruct his physical body and return to the Dou Qi Continent.

It was even possible for his cultivation to advance further.

After all, anything touched by the word "Saint" always became extraordinary.

Yao Chen's heart was complex. When Lu Chuan refined the Life Bone Blood Melting Pill without asking for anything in return, he already felt that this person was of good character. Now, Lu Chuan was even willing to help him reconstruct his physical body.

As an Eighth-Grade Alchemist, the other party couldn't possibly not know what the Life Bone Blood Melting Pill was used for.

If Yao Chen had to find the remaining materials needed for resurrection by himself, it would probably take a considerable amount of time. Even with Venerable Feng's help, it wouldn't be an easy task.

Now that Lu Chuan was willing to help, it saved a lot of effort.

However, the debt of gratitude was immense.

And he didn't know if he would ever have a chance to repay it.

Yao Chen made a note of this matter; whether he could repay it was one thing, but he would always find an opportunity in the future!

In the Plaza of the Lingxiao Palace, a stone platform was placed in the center, and on it lay the body of a Half-Saint expert. This was the body of an offender Lu Chuan had killed earlier.

At this moment, Lu Chuan intended to use this body for Yao Chen's resurrection.

The next moment, Lu Chuan summoned his Abyssal Flame and began refining the body.

The penetrating high temperature caused tiny bubbles to appear on the surface of the bones. Occasionally, as the bubbles burst, a rich energy would permeate the air.

"Yao Chen, the time has come!"

At a certain moment, Lu Chuan shouted loudly.

"Mm."

Yao Chen nodded. With his experienced eyesight, he naturally knew that now was the best time. He quickly took out the Life Bone Blood Melting Pill from the jade bottle, swallowed it, and his form rapidly turned illusory, transforming into a streak of light that shot into the skeleton.

The moment Yao Chen's soul entered the skeleton, light gradually gathered in the empty eye sockets of the skeleton. And it was at this very moment that a terrifying and strange energy permeated from within the skeleton.

Under this energy, flesh and blood miraculously began to appear on the bones... White bones growing flesh, this miraculous effect, of course, was brought about by the Life Bone Blood Melting Pill.

Lu Chuan continued to roast the body with flames. Under this fiery calcination, the freshly generated flesh and blood tissues were incinerated into ash, but as soon as the ash dispersed, a terrifying and strange energy permeated again, and the speed of the flesh and blood growth also became faster and faster.

Later on, one could almost only see the flesh rapidly wriggling, and a bloody, humanoid outline quickly took shape.

This cycle of destruction and regeneration continued for half an hour. Finally, Venerable Yao, who had once astonished the Dou Qi Continent, was truly able to be reborn from the ashes and resurrected.
