Standing in the middle of their attention, Qin Lei explained his circumstances and reason for collecting such a fund. Naturally, that includes what happened to his father and his intention to buy the Spiritium Velvet Antlers from the Worldly Treasures Pavilion.
The exorbitant price of seven hundred Contribution Tokens naturally explained why they needed all they could get. Although this means that not everyone can afford to buy the treasure, there's no say about what would happen if it stays unsold for some time.
Although he hadn't intended to eavesdrop on their conversation, the elder could not help but shake his head after listening to Qin Lei's story. Hearing from a distance to a Golden Core Layer cultivator is as simple as breathing.
The elder naturally knew who Qin Lei was talking about. After all, the sixth elder, who is also an acquaintance of Qin Lei's father, was the one who asked him to take care of Qin Lei if possible. It was obvious that he knew about this.
The only part he had no idea about was that the sixth elder managed to find a Prosthetic Master by asking around. A portion of Qin Lei's father's misfortune came from his attempt to cover everyone while retreating from one of their expeditions.
This was why expeditions like this are extremely dangerous and filled with unknown rewards.
Feeling that he should come out and say something, the elder quietly came to their side and gently rubbed Qin Lei's head. He naturally could sense what was happening in this youth's heart.
"Where is the Alchemist Token I gave you, Xiao Tu?" the elder asked.
"It's here, teacher! Disciple has kept it safely in my pocket wherever I go." Chen Tu quickly took the plaque out from his chest pocket and handed it in both hands to the elder.
"As long you present this Alchemist Token to those in the Worldly Treasures Pavilion, they'll give you a 20% discount on everything. After deducting a hundred forty from the initial price of seven hundred, won't the final amount comes within your budget?" said the elder.
The meaning behind his word is obvious. As long they use this Alchemist Token, they'll naturally be qualified for the 20% discount. All that was necessary was a word from the elder.
"Please accept a kowtow from this useless disciple as his way of saying thank you." Qin Lei immediately got down on both knees and prostate until his forehead touched the ground. Chen Tu was about to follow suit but discovered something invisible was stopping him from going down.
"Come here, Xiao Tu." the elder called Chen Tu to come closer next.
"Keep this with you. In case there's something else you need, you can use it." said the elder. He handed a piece of Contribution Token, but this one appeared slightly different from the rest.
It was made from a certain metal with a dark color and had a layer of gold wrapped around the edges.
"This is?" Chen Tu asked. This was the first time he had seen something like this. But the others had a face full of jealousy in them.
"If you two continue to dilly-dally here, the Worldly Treasures Pavilion will be closed." the elder interrupted. He appeared to be uninterested in answering Chen Tu's question.
"Disciple understood. Junior brother, let's go!" Qin Lei stood up and grabbed Chen Tu's hand as they ran toward the Worldly Treasures Pavilion.
"The rest of you, let them realize what the black token is for." the elder to the rest to keep the secret.
"We will follow the teacher's word obediently." they replied. Naturally, everyone left and returned to wherever they should go. As for the remaining duties, it falls into the hand of the senior workers.
...
......"Stop right there. Visiting time is over. The pavilion is closing in ten more minutes." the guards stopped them from entering. Since there are only ten minutes left to visit, most people are forbidden from entering as it would be a waste of entrance fees.
Of course, they could still have a go if they insist.
"Fellow brother, we're here in a hurry to buy an important material. Please allow us to enter. We already know where it is and won't be too long!" Qin Lei said. How could he wait for tomorrow while holding this amount of Contribution Tokens?
"In that case, make it quick." the guard left the door ajar for them to enter. After paying two Contribution Tokens as their entrance fee, the two charged upstairs like a flying arrow. They stopped right before the podium with the Spiritium Velvet Antlers and immediately asked for a staff.
"What's wrong with you two?" asked a worker when he saw Chen Tu and Qin Lei panicked for their attention. The possibility of them buying this treasure never crossed his mind.
Although... The unexpected thing always happens at the most unexpected time.
"We wanted to buy this pair of antlers!" Qin Lei said. How much has he been holding himself to be able to say this sentence aloud?
"Don't joke with me here... These Spiritium Velvet Antlers cost seven hundred Contribution Tokens. Don't tell me you have that much of a token with you?" the worker said.
"Yes, we do!!!" Chen Tu interrupted this time and heavily placed the Contribution Tokens bag on the counter. He had no idea why the worker was making this difficult for them.
(Was he trying to delay the time until it was closing? What is his motive?)
The worker narrowed his eyes and started to count the number of tokens in the bag. But after stacking them in a column of ten, they only came to a total of five-hundred and sixty.
"Not enough! It's seven hundred Contribution Tokens, not five-sixty! You're a hundred and forty short!" the worker said. This time, he smiled. It appeared that he already had some intention on the antlers and purposely made it troublesome to make Chen Tu and Qin Lei give up on buying them.
But it never came across his mind that Chen Tu would take something out that made the worker turned speechless.
"Here, take a look at this! Our teacher said that we will be given a 20% Discount by showing this token!" Chen Tu said and placed the Alchemist Token down on the table.
(WHAT!!!)

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
