Chapter 99: Chapter 85 Body Tempering Elixir? Joining an Immortal Cultivator Sect?_1
After the matter with Luo Yao had ended,
peacefulness once again returned to the Luo Family in Qingshi Town.
Apart from Luo Yao’s courtyard, which saw an increase of over a dozen charming wives and concubines,
the vast Luo Family remained as tranquil as it always had been.
…
In the blink of an eye, several days had passed.
During these days,
Luo Changfeng, the Ancestor of the Luo Family,
had devoted all of his time to how to increase the success rate of refining the Mirror-Breaking Elixir.
However, no matter how hard he tried,
the results were still minimally effective.
Having no choice, Luo Changfeng could only attempt to expend 200 Qi-Blood points to raise his understanding of the alchemy arts from two percent to three percent.
And as Luo Changfeng’s alchemy arts improved yet again,
the success rate of the Mirror-Breaking Elixir also saw a significant boost.
That is, from having only one success in a hundred attempts, he now succeeded about once in every eighty.
Although this success rate was still pitifully low,
the Mirror-Breaking Elixir was at least
now usable.
A common Mirror-Breaking Elixir could grant a cultivator at the Bone Refinement Perfection the opportunity for a breakthrough.
Under such circumstances, even if only one out of eighty attempts to refine the Mirror-Breaking Elixir was successful,
the stockpile of elixirs would surely grow larger as Luo Changfeng’s number of refinements increased.
…
As the reserves of the Mirror-Breaking Elixir gradually increased,
during those three days, Luo Changfeng also gave one to a servant at the Bone Refinement Perfection stage.
Luo Changfeng attempted to artificially create the Luo Family’s third Organ Refinement Realm cultivator.
If successful, with three Organ Refinement cultivators within the Luo Family Ancestral Land,
the Luo Family’s overall strength would experience another explosive increase.
Unfortunately,
his plan to create the third Organ Refinement Realm cultivator for the Luo Family failed.
It wasn’t clear whether it was due to the servant’s potential being completely drained by the Epiphyllum Elixir, or for some other reason,
but in the end, it failed.
The price of failure was that the servant at the Bone Refinement Perfection stage would now forever remain at that stage,
with no more chances to break through to the Organ Refinement Initial Realm.
This was a kind of helplessness, too!
…
In the blink of an eye, another day had passed.
It was now early morning,
the sky not yet fully lit up.
Luo Changfeng, the Ancestor of the Luo Family, had already quietly left his residence,
heading alone towards the Library Pavilion.
Thanks to recent developments, the number and variety of books in the Luo Family’s Library Pavilion had doubled.
…
Given the early hour,
the Library Pavilion was almost devoid of people,
except for Luo Yang, who spent his days there poring over introductory alchemy books, studying how to refine the Body Tempering Elixir.
Beyond Luo Yang, Luo Changfeng could see no other members of the Luo Family Clan.
Ah, wait a moment…
As Luo Changfeng ascended to the third floor of the Library Pavilion,
he seemed to have spotted another figure.
This figure was somewhat familiar.
“Patriarch Changfeng…”
Luo Chuan, situated on the third floor of the Library Pavilion and holding an “Introduction to Formation” book,
upon seeing the arrival of his family’s patriarch,
couldn’t help but gently set down his book,
and gave Luo Changfeng a respectful bow.
“So it’s that little fellow Luo Chuan…”
Looking at the person before him, Luo Changfeng couldn’t help but feel surprised.
In his memory, Luo Chuan was not someone who should be staying in the Library Pavilion.
“Have you recently been researching formations?”
After glanced at the book in Luo Chuan’s hands that had “Introduction to Formation” inscribed on it, Luo Changfeng couldn’t help but ask aloud.
“Yes!” Luo Chuan nodded silently and said in a low voice, “I suddenly found formations interesting, so I’ve been looking into them.”
“But it seems the depth of formation knowledge is a bit beyond my expectations…”
“I’ve been studying for nearly half a month, and I’m still quite confused…”
“Is that so?” Luo Changfeng looked at Luo Chuan once more.
After nodding, he left the place.
…
After staying in the Library Pavilion for about two or three hours,
Luo Changfeng left with an “Introduction to Artifact Refining” book.
Whether it’s alchemy, talisman crafting, artifact refining, or formation,
each profession is quite important.
However, if one had to rank them, Luo Changfeng felt that alchemy was the most important.
Talisman crafting, artifact refining, and formations,
these three professions were slightly less important than alchemy.
Of course, this was just Luo Changfeng’s personal feeling,
not to say that talisman crafting, artifact refining, and formations were definitely inferior to alchemy.
…
After bringing “Introduction to Artifact Refining” back to his courtyard,
Luo Changfeng did not immediately intend to apply his Qi-Blood Force to the profession.
He wanted to first see whether his talent for artifact refining was good or bad.
Who knows, maybe his talent for artifact refining might rival his talent for talisman crafting?
Perhaps he might be able to save some Qi-Blood Force?
However, while the intention was good,
the reality proved to be quite cruel.
After studying for three full days and nights, let alone any talent for artifact refining, he couldn’t even grasp the basics.
Without being able to get started, he was not eligible to allocate points to artifact refining.
With no other choice, Luo Changfeng reluctantly decided to put aside his intention to study artifact refining for the time being.
