Bang! There was a roar! There was an explosion.
In an alchemy room, smoke was everywhere, full of burnt smell, mixed with a faint smell of herbs.
"Ahem!"
Chu Cheng was choked and kept coughing. At this time, his face was completely black and his black hair stood up.
"Hiccup!" Chu Cheng blew out a breath of black air from his mouth, and couldn't help but said angrily: "It keeps failing when condensing the pill embryos! What is the reason?"
Alchemy is mainly divided into five steps: fire control, shaping, condensation, refining, and elixir formation.
Chu Cheng always got stuck in the process of refining the Qi Restoration Pill, and failed every time when it was about to take shape.
"That's not right, I didn't have any problems when refining the Bigu Pills!" Chu Cheng thought, and when he refined the Bigu Pills and Strengthening Pills, everything went smoothly. Except for the first blast, all the others were successful.
"No matter! Keep going! Fortunately, I don't need to spend any money on these herbs." Chu Cheng enjoyed it and already fell in love with the method of alchemy.
The art of alchemy has always been boring. Many talented people cannot stand this environment, so there are only a handful of third-grade alchemists in Qingzhou.
"Purple water chestnut, seven-leaf clover..." Chu Cheng grabbed the herbs with the Qi Restoration Pill and put them in in order.
"Well! We must not fail this time!" Just as Chu Cheng was about to take out a fire charm for alchemy from the side, his waist suddenly burst into flames.
"Communication talisman?" Chu Cheng took out the half-burned talisman from his waist, pinched it gently, and immediately extinguished it.
Now that ten days have passed, Ma Yun finally received the news.
Chu Cheng picked out the herbs in the alchemy furnace and walked out of the alchemy room.
"Crack", Alchemist Fang who was outside heard the noise and saw Chu Cheng walking out with a look of embarrassment on his face. He said helplessly: "Junior Brother Chu, it seems you have failed again."
I feel bad! So many herbs! If it were him, how many furnaces could he refine? You must know that one rejuvenation point requires two contribution points!
"Junior Brother Chu, I think you should refine the Qi Gathering Pill first." Alchemist Fang reminded.
The Qi Gathering Pill and the Qi Restoring Pill are both first-grade elixirs, but their refining level is much simpler.
"Qi Gathering Pill?" Chu Cheng was stunned, and then he remembered that there was such a pill as Qi Gathering Pill. Mainly because most of the Qi Gathering Pills distributed by Luoyun Sect were low-grade pills and were of no use to Chu Cheng, so he never took them. After accumulating for so long, there are no less than a hundred pills accumulated in the storage bag.
Pills are also divided into low-grade, medium-grade, and top-grade pills. As for top-grade pills, they are rare in Qingzhou. For Chu Cheng today, at least the middle-grade Qi Gathering Pill is effective.
"Hahaha, next time I will practice the Qi Gathering Pill!" Since Chu Cheng hadn't taken the Qi Gathering Pill for a long time, he also forgot about it, otherwise he wouldn't have practiced the Qi Gathering Pill.
When Master Fang saw Chu Cheng's awakening, he nodded with satisfaction and almost said that a boy can be taught...
"Senior Brother Fang! If you still have any questions, let's take a step forward." Chu Cheng said goodbye.
Chu Cheng left the alchemy hall and came to the teleportation array to teleport back to Area B of the outer gate. Then he came to the creek and washed the stains on his body before he dared to go to the agreed place.
Beside the teleportation array in Area B, Ma Yuncai was waiting impatiently. Half an hour had passed since he called Chu Cheng.
"Junior Brother Ma, do you think Chu Cheng will not come?" Standing next to him were three other people, all of whom were outer disciples on this trip. One of the women said.
"It's also possible that Junior Brother Ma told him about that place? And then he went there on his own?"
"Impossible! Senior Brother Chu would never do such a thing." Ma Yuncai said hurriedly. "I haven't revealed that valley yet!"
"Okay, wait!" said a tall young man.
Another stick of incense passed, and Chu Cheng hadn't arrived yet, and even Ma Yuncai was worried. Bang! There was a roar! There was an explosion.
In an alchemy room, smoke was everywhere, full of burnt smell, mixed with a faint smell of herbs.
"Ahem!"
Chu Cheng was choked and kept coughing. At this time, his face was completely black and his black hair stood up.

"Okay, wait!" said a tall young man.
Another stick of incense passed, and Chu Cheng hadn't arrived yet, and even Ma Yuncai was worried.
The other three people were anxious that Chu Cheng might have really gone to that valley alone. Even if Ma Yuncai said it but didn't reveal it, there was no basis for what he said. Who knows whether it was true or not. What Ma Yun is anxious about is that Chu Cheng has made a mistake and really won't come.
After all, the agreed time was three days, and now it has been ten days.
Just then, Ma Yun saw a dark shadow in the distance.
"It's Senior Brother Chu!" Ma Yuncai was overjoyed and shouted hurriedly.
The other three people looked up and exhaled.
After a while, the black shadow got closer and closer, and it gradually became clear that it was Chu Cheng.
Chu Cheng stood down, cupped his hands and said, "Sorry, I kept you waiting for a long time due to some trivial matters!"
While Chu Cheng was cleaning up by the stream, he remembered the former stronghold of the Burning Gang. There happened to be a hot spring there, so he simply went there to freshen up.
The hot spring was so comfortable that Chu Cheng actually fell asleep while soaking in it, which was a bit embarrassing.
Ma Yuncai hurriedly waved his hand and said with a smile: "Senior Brother Chu, what are you talking about? It's been seven days since the agreed date, but Senior Brother has been waiting for a long time."
Chu Cheng nodded and looked at the other three people. The woman was of average appearance and not weak in cultivation. She already had the fifth level of Qi Gathering. The tall young man's cultivation was at the sixth level of Qi gathering, and the other young monk also had the fourth level of Qi gathering.
Coupled with Chu Cheng's sixth level of Qi gathering and Ma Yuncai's fourth level of Qi gathering, this team is not weak. It would definitely be no problem to deal with a level two monster.
When the three monks saw Chu Cheng, they also cupped their hands as a greeting.
Ma Yuncai pointed at the female monk and said, "Brother Chu, this is Junior Sister Zhang Hong." They introduced each other one by one. The tall young man was named He Tao, and the other young man was named Li Ye.
As for Chu Cheng, he needs no introduction. Since uprooting the Fenshao Gang, he is now very famous in the outer sect, and is quite famous even among the inner sect. After all, a core disciple was severely punished because of him!
"I've met you all!" Chu Cheng smiled and held his hands in greeting, and the three of them suddenly felt amiable.
"I have heard about Senior Brother Chu's reputation for a long time, but now that I have seen him, he is seven times more heroic than the rumors say!" He Tao chuckled.
Chu Cheng smiled. Everyone likes to hear this kind of flattery. He also clasped his fists and said: "No matter where you are, you are not inferior to me. Once this trip is over, the next time the five of us meet, I'm afraid we will all be in the inner sect." bingo."
When He Tao and the other four heard this, they all smiled slightly. If this trip goes well, the spiritual stones exchanged will indeed enable him to successfully enter the seventh level of Qi Gathering.
"Senior Brother Chu, shall we set off now?" Ma Yuncai said.
"Okay!" Chu Cheng naturally agreed and couldn't wait for a long time. Exchange resources as soon as possible to cultivate and become an inner disciple as soon as possible so that you can return to Huang Country as soon as possible.
Naturally, the other three people would not refuse.
Five people walked into the teleportation array one after another and teleported out of Area B.
Outside Luoyun Sect, there was a fluctuation in the teleportation array, and five people appeared one after another.
"Who is it?" shouted a foundation-building monk standing outside Luoyun Sect.
Ma Yun just walked out of the teleportation array and said respectfully: "Senior brother, the five of us are disciples from Area B of the outer sect and want to travel for three days."
"Give me your identity card." The foundation-building monk said calmly.
After hearing this, Chu Cheng and the other five handed over their identity cards one by one.
The foundation-building monk took the identity card, wrote the names of the five people on a music score, and then returned the identity card.
"When you return to the sect, your names will disappear from this score. Remember, if you exceed four days, you will be fined thirty lower-grade spiritual stones per day."
Chu Cheng was dumbfounded. Thirty low-grade spiritual stones were needed in one day. A one-way trip to Huang Country would take seven days, and a round trip would take fourteen days. Even if he only stayed in Huang Country for an hour, it would still cost 300 low-grade spiritual stones! Although Chu Cheng could get it, it was quite distressing to take out three middle-grade spiritual stones.
"Thank you, senior brother!" the five of them said in unison.
The five people left Luoyun Sect and flew south for more than ten miles before stopping.
"Senior Brother Chu, it's quite far to get to that valley, it will take about half a day." Ma Yuncai said.
"It would be great if there was a flying magic weapon. It could save several hours." He Tao said.
A flying magic weapon requires at least more than 70 contribution points. How many contribution points do they need to complete a third-level mission? Of course I can't bear to change it.
"Flying magic weapon?" Chu Cheng turned his hand, and a small flying boat suddenly appeared in his hand.
With a wave of Chu Cheng's hand, the small flying boat instantly became larger and could accommodate about six people. This flying boat was obtained by Chu Cheng after spending 80 contribution points.
"Flying magic weapon!" Several people were moved when they saw this flying boat. Secretly, Chu Cheng was so extravagant.
"Everyone, please!" Chu Cheng smiled slightly and invited them to get on the flying boat.
The flying magic weapon was nearly 40% faster than Chu Cheng's full speed, and it reached its destination in less than four hours.
Chu Cheng looked down from the sky. The valley was overgrown with weeds, with almost no trees visible. It was a barren valley.
The other three people were anxious that Chu Cheng might have really gone to that valley alone. Even if Ma Yuncai said it but didn't reveal it, there was no basis for what he said. Who knows whether it was true or not. What Ma Yun is anxious about is that Chu Cheng has made a mistake and really won't come.
