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 difference between the third and fourth levels was merely a digit, the actual disparity between them was wider than the distance between the two riversides.

Flesh Tempering is strong, but only externally. Compared to the Bone Tempering Stage, it still lacks endurance and power. But this was something only those at the fourth level had access to.

(I can believe how obvious the difference was...)

(If my body was comparable to a tree bark before this, my current one should be similar to a densely woven tree trunk. It was no longer a skin that could be shredded but a living one...)

Chen Tu flexed his palm and gradually opened his eyes. Naturally, returning to his sense also made him smell the terrible stench coming from him. As the smell was too unbearable, Chen Tu quickly made his way to get cleaned and changed into a fresh set of clothing.

He obviously had no reason to cultivate anymore for tonight. But to consolidate his foundation at the fourth level, Chen Tu decided to take two more days of rest and stabilize his cultivation behind closed doors.

By the time he came out, Qin Lei had already returned from the Crimson Flame City.

"Brother Chen!" Qin Lei excitedly came to Chen Tu's side and hugged him. Apparently, the mood of his senior brother was extremely good. In addition, a middle-aged adult is coming at them after Qin Lei.

Based on his appearance, this senior is likely Qin Lei's father, also known as Qin Tianbao. He appeared like an older, much more mature version of Qin Lei.

Still, nothing is more surprising than his cultivation strength. Even from afar, Chen Tu could sense the cultivation strength of an early Golden Core Layer. It could be comparable to Chen Tian Peng's power, who was the father of Chen Zigang and patriarch of the Chen Clan.

"This must be uncle Qin. This junior is Chen Tu, the youngest junior disciple of the fourth elder, Wei Xuan. I am also the junior of senior brother Qin." Chen Tu respectfully greeted Qin Tianbao.

"Hahaha... Our house Xiao Lei had been talking about you nonstop from our way here. You're that Chen Tu?" Qin Tianbao seemed to have a favorable opinion of Chen Tu. After all, what kind of complaint could he have about the person who selflessly helped Qin Lei to accumulate enough Contribution Tokens for the Spiritium Velvet Antler?

He would be no different from an ungrateful animal if he had the guts to say anything negative after getting Chen Tu's help.

"Come here and let me have a good look at you. I want to see what kind of brother did my Xiao Lei found for himself." Qin Tianbao waved and urged Chen Tu to come closer. Naturally, he also called Qin Lei to come along.

"Let's go, brother Chen. My father is a very nice person." Qin Lei grabbed Chen Tu's hand and pulled him over to his father. It was only natural for them to make their way over because regardless of how powerful Qin Tianbao appeared, he was a senior with a prosthetic leg.

"Not bad. What a pair of clear eyes you had. From this uncle's life experience, I could see no mockery or pointless thought in your gaze. Also, if I'm not wrong, Xiao Lei told me that you had plenty of interest in Alchemy, am I correct?" Qin Tianbao asked.

"Yes, uncle Qin." Chen Tu politely replied.

"Good, good. Throughout my experience wandering outside, I came across a few good things. Since you have been helping this uncle so selflessly as well as treating Xiao Lei like a brother of yours, what about this uncle give you something as reward?" Qin Tianbao continued.

After speaking his mind, the senior reached into his inner pocket and took two manuals from there. Apparently, the manual wasn't made from paper but the leather of a Spiritual Beast. Perhaps, this was the reason why it was preserved till today.

"From what I was told, these two manuals were lower-Tiered Bronze Grade recipes. I believe it would be more useful in your hand, instead of mine." Qin Tianbao said and stuffed the two manuals into Chen Tu's hand.

Considering Qin Lei's father's enthusiasm, Chen Tu naturally wouldn't reject his kindness. After all, it would appear offensive instead if he refused the other party's goodwill.

"Chen Tu appreciates uncle Qin's kindness. In that case, allow this nephew to accept these two manuals with gratitude." Chen Tu nodded and bowed with the books placed close to his chest.

"Alright, the two of us still had to meet with some people in the grotto. Shall we meet again tonight for dinner? Allow this uncle to treat you again and express his gratitude one more time." Qin Tianbao said.

"Sure, uncle Qin. This nephew will be waiting here patiently for you and senior brother Qin's return." Chen Tu replied.

"Alright! That's a promise. Let's meet again later tonight at the canteen." The father and son pair left after finishing what they had in mind. As for Chen Tu, he naturally had something else to do. After all, didn't he have two more medicinal pill recipes to study?

(Hmm...)

Chen Tu grumbled as he looked at the name of the Medicinal Pill.

[Spring and Autumn Profound Pill]

[Lesser Vitality Pill]

    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
