2022-11-10 01:03:35"Third Disciple Zigang greets the honorable master." the youth immediately kneeled a knee and delivered his greetings. This youth is none other than Chen Zigang, the one who left Crimson River Town four days ago.
The grand elder reprimanded him, but the look of worry was not seen on Chen Zigang's face.
He had a face full of smiles instead.
After all, he had just arrived here with the grand elder. It was unavoidable for Chen Zigang to have a problem sleeping at night.
Furthermore, from this place alone, it was already twice the size of Chen Manor. And this was just the specially arranged accommodation for the grand elder's third disciple.
He had yet to see his other two senior brothers, but from what the grand elder shared, Chen Zigang knew both older brothers were at the level of Peak Golden Core Layer. All they need is a small push, and they'll likely advance to the realm of the Spiritual Sea Layer.
The Spiritual Sea Layer was already in an unthinkable cultivation realm that far surpasses Chen Zigang's understanding.
Of course, the positive part aside, being the grand elder's third disciple also comes with plenty of pressure. For example, one of them was fiercely glared at when meeting the rest of the disciples, who belonged to other elders.
While being a selected disciple of the elder is considered a blessing to their status, it was different when comparing them to Chen Zigang's status. It was a coveted status that even the second elder of the Tiangang Sword Pavilion would wish for.
This was also why the grand elder made that statement when he gave a token to Chen Zigang.
[With this token, all disciples of Tiangang Sword Pavilion will treat you like their ancestor wherever you go]
The grand elder didn't lie to Chen Zigang or the Chen Family. As long the token of Sword Lord is in Chen Zigang's hand, everyone will be beneath Chen Zigang's authority. He could even order the senior brothers in Golden Core or Spiritual Sea Layer to accompany him wherever he goes.
Still, he has to have sufficient cultivation strength on his own. With the cultivation of the fourth level in the Body Tempering Layer right now, he's a clown in the eyes of other chosen disciples.
Amongst the other elders' disciples, the weakest is at the peak level of the Body Tempering Layer. And there are even two disciples in their first and second levels in the Spiritual Condensation Layer. Of course, most of them had already reached thirteen years old.
"What's wrong with you? Can't sleep?" the grand elder slowly descended to the ground before gently patting Chen Zigang's head. The attention he gave was no different from a father to a child and even more considerate than Chen Tian Peng.
Perhaps, even Chen Tian Peng had not to pat Chen Zigang's head like a father. He could possibly only hug Chen Zigang once or twice when he was just born and before knowing how to walk.
"Yes... Disciple is nervous that I would be a disappointment." Chen Zigang said what was on his mind. After all, the two had been accompanying one another for days, naturally bringing this pair of master and disciple closer.
"What was there to be worried about? Everyone was a loser to start with. Only those that are willing to change could turn their loser status into an overlord." the grand elder said. At the same time, he gently used some Spiritual Energy to make Chen Zigang feel sleepier.
After a while, Chen Zigang falls asleep.
"Men..." the grand elder called.
"Grand elder!" an attendant approached Jian Wuxian and kneeled closely beside him.
"Bring him back into his room and get the Hundred-Tempering Liquid ready for him to soak inside in the morning." the grand elder ordered.
"Subordinate understood." the attendant was slightly shocked by what he heard but dared not to delay his response. He immediately took the disciple back to the room after catching Chen Zigang in both arms.
He was a little jealous of the treatment Chen Zigang had gotten.
If only he could soak inside this Hundred-Tempering Liquid that cost at least a hundred thousand Spiritual Coins for just half an hour...
That way, he might have the chance to advance into the peak level of the Spiritual Condensation Layer.
...
...
Next morning.
Chen Tu had been cultivating throughout the night. But no matter how much he tried, the amount of Spiritual Energy his body could hold only increased by a minuscule amount. If he could store two days' worth of Spiritual Energy before this, then it was around two days and two minutes more now.
The growth was too insignificant, making Chen Tu somewhat panicky.
He felt that something had to be done but was clueless at the same time.
(Would I find the answer if I pay a visit to the Book Pavilion later? I doubt people would be kind enough to guide me unless I pay for their service with Contribution Tokens...)
Chen Tu couldn't make up his mind, but that didn't stop him from doing what he should in the morning. As an illiterate individual, his only option was to open his mouth and ask for guidance.
He could only hope that someone was kind enough to guide him. Or perhaps, he could also ask Qin Lei when seeing the latter in the Spiritual Garden. And without delay, Chen Tu patronized the canteen for a sumptuous breakfast before he went to work.
To his disappointment, Qin Lei didn't turn up today. It was a different representative on duty today. From what he was told, Qin Lei had applied for a few days of leave to initiate closed-door cultivation.
His decision was abrupt, but it made sense. After all, Chen Tu was with Qin Lei when the latter paid for the ten drops of Pure Spiritual Beast Essence.
Looks like Chen Tu won't be working beside the Spiritual Herbs today. Instead of the usual weed removal task, he was assigned to reclaim the farmable land, with half of those reporting to work today.

Chapter 82: Lost Pill Recipe
Next morning. Following Tang Yun Long's suggestion, Chen Tu made his way to the Registration Office after breakfast. And as usual, he waited with the others in the queue until it was his turn. "What can I do for you today, junior?" the worker asked with impatience in his tone. In his opinion, Chen Tu is likely another disciple coming to claim his monthly salary provided by the Blood Refining Grotto. But all his following words were stuck in his throat before he could continue after Chen Tu had his disciple token taken out. "Chen - Chen Tu? You're Chen Tu?" the worker's tone changed into a more polite and easy to the ear. His attitude also had 180 degrees of turnover. Chen Tu didn't reply to him but simply nodded with a smile. And to these workers who looked down on the weak disciples, such treatment was the best venom to reeducate them. The worker immediately changed how he addressed Chen Tu from "Junior" to "Fellow Disciple Chen." And needless to say, this instantaneous change
Chapter 81: Small World
"Teacher, really? We're going to attend the examination for the Titled Alchemist this year?" Tang Yun Long couldn't help but feel excited. Naturally, he was very happy with what Elder Wei Xuan had said. After all, Tang Yun Long is turning eighteen this year. And even amongst all the disciples from both elders, his talent in Alchemy was the highest. But regardless of how he requested, Elder Wei Xuan would always reject him when it came to permission to attend the Titled-Alchemist Examination. No matter how much he begged, the elder would deem he was not ready for the test yet. Counting from the year he had been asking until now, it was almost four years past. But today, the sun seems to be rising from the west. Of course, Tang Yun Long realized that the change in Elder Wei Xuan's mind did not come from him but from Chen Tu. Without bathing in this junior brother's brilliance, he might have to wait another year or two before his chances arrive. Obviously, there was a reason for the
Chapter 80: Crimson Emblazing Pill
"Good. Very good. Then, you'll be the second official disciple of this old man from this moment onward. I am looking forward on how far you can grow." Elder Wei Xuan appeared very satisfied with Chen Tu's instant reply. This could also show how much Chen Tu had longed for this chance. "Disciple understood!" Chen Tu kneeled and raised a teacup in both hands to the elder. Regardless of the custom, serving a cup of tea to your master is essential. This customary practice not only creates a proper master and disciple but also the connections in between. "En... Those unimportant things will be told to you by Xiao Long later. For now, take this as your gift to study under my tutelage. It was the Pill Formula I promised you last time." the elder said after placing the teacup aside and taking something from nothingness. Apparently, the elder had a piece of Spatial Jade too. And from the look of it, the quality is slightly better than what Tang Yun Long had. "Why don't you take a look at i
Chapter 79: Second Official Disciple
"junior brother Chen, this Three-Star Pill... Did you refine them by yourself?" Tang Yun Long asked. Even he hadn't had success in refining a pill of this quality. At most, he is only confident in refining Two-Star Pill. Furthermore, this result was before Chen Tu was officially accepted by the elder as his second official disciple. If he was, would he be capable of Four-Star, or even a Five-Star? Of course, that kind of level is nowhere to be heard of... After all, no alchemist would dedicate all their time to researching and refining a four or Five-Star Grain Pellet. Even if that alchemist is the most foolish one, he would likely have zero to little interest in an entry-level pill like this. Looking at the Three-Star Grain Pellet sitting on the table, the elder couldn't calm his heart down. And without further ado, he put his hand out toward Chen Tu and asked for something. "Xiao Tu... Bring the Alchemist Token out." Elder Wei Xuan asked. It appears that what he will be doing
Chapter 78: About To Faint
(Hmm... I wonder what kind of medicinal pill is this Spring and Autumn Profound Pill and Lesser Vitality Pill. Could their effect be something extraordinary, like the Spiritual Replenishing or Spirit Desertification Pill?) Chen Tu spoke to his own while flipping through the pages. The contents were fairly easy for him to understand, and there was nothing to be suspicious about. But when Chen Tu came to the ingredient part, he had the urge to scratch and pull his hair. (Aargh... Now, this is where my first obstacle comes in...) Chen Tu took a few deep breaths after he set the book aside. He had mixed feelings due to what was going on inside his mind. The reason for these confusing thoughts was naturally understandable. After all, this was a lost recipe Qin Lei's father, Qin Tianbao, found from excavating the tomb of a certain expert. Interestingly, this relic site was also where Qin Tianbao had a mishap and lost one of his legs. And no wonder he would be allowed to keep these two
Chapter 77: Uncle Qin Tianbao
(What an amazing feeling... Could this be something only those in the fourth level would realize?) Chen Tu remained seated, but for every breath he took, the Spiritual Energy of his surroundings was attracted over. His body was like a leaf sponging up all the dew as it absorbed all these blimps of Spiritual Energy to nourish his flesh. This mist-like Spiritual Energy is incomparable to what a Spiritual Replenishing Pill offers. Still, it was something nobody would complain about. After all, no matter how diluted and faint this Spiritual Energy was, they're still the Spiritual Energy everyone pursued. Nobody would cover their water well when it rains because they're afraid it would be overfilled by the rainwater. Apparently, Chen Tu's guess was correct. A feat like this was indeed someone above the Flesh Tempering Stage could enjoy. And thanks to his fully-tempered flesh, Chen Tu is now more than capable of applicating Spiritual Energy to strengthen his physique. Although the diff
