Chapter 71: Back to the Alchemist Room

Jiang Chen felt proud of himself when he was promoted to senior disciple . But after learning that Ning Haotian ranked the first on both lists, this proud feeling disappeared . He started to think about the current situation again and plan what to practice .

Undoubtedly, he had to achieve the Mental Wander State .

But if he wanted to enhance his state in a short period, he had to make good use of every resource he had .

First of all, the benefits for senior disciples .

Senior disciples had three enviable resources that could benefit their practice .

The first was the Transdragon Pool .

Each entry in it cost a million contributions . One would see fabulous changes after bathing in the Transdragon Pool . Besides enhancing their state, they would progress rapidly in their future practice .

"The top ten disciples on the Talent List get one free chance to bathe in the Transdragon Pool every month . " Jiang Chen felt complicated when he remembered this rule .

The second was the Deity Elixir .

It was similar to the Pure Yang Pill refined by Jiang Chen, a super helpful object for a Gathering Yuan State to achieve the Mental Wander State .

The third was the Martial Arts Technique Department .

The importance of martial arts techniques was obvious . As long as you spent some time in the Martial Arts Technique Department, your attainments of martial arts techniques would be greatly enhanced .

Among the three resources, Jiang Chen was only interested in the Transdragon Pool .

"Contributions… Without contributions, there is no difference between the top ten sects and schools and the Hundred Thousand Mountains," Jiang Chen thought to himself .

At that moment Meng Hao told him the good news . "Jiang Chen, the alchemist room is done . "

Jiang Chen's eyes lit up . As long as he could refine panaceas, all his problems would be sorted out .

"I think the princess likes you," Meng Hao said abruptly .

"What?" Jiang Chen thought he had misheard . Then he understood what Meng Hao meant .

It was Wen Xin who paid for the construction of the alchemist room . She had also paid for the herbal garden which was still under construction .

Wen Xin had never fulfilled a single task . She simply exchanged rose gold coins for contributions .

Although Jiang Chen had claimed it was due to the contributions he borrowed from her, he wasn't a fool and knew exactly how difficult it was to borrow money . And the princess had never shown any hesitation .

However, Jiang Chen had never thought of that possibility .

Frankly speaking, he was unwilling to consider a romantic relationship before he met that woman again in the Sacred Zone .

Most importantly, he had lost his confidence in women .

Jiang Chen felt most natural when he regarded Wen Xin as a friend, but if it wasn't friendship between them, he would feel a bit weird .

"Stop that foolish talk . I'll show the Natural Law School the charm of an alchemist!"

As a senior disciple, Jiang Chen didn't have to behave cautiously anymore . So he taught Meng Hao a class-one method, which excited him .

For the time being, Jiang Chen would go back to the alchemist room .

Class-one panaceas couldn't satisfy him anymore since he was in a higher state . Jiang Chen was going to refine class-two panaceas .

More than one kind!

He was going to refine Black Yuan Elixir, Revival Elixir, and Sky Yuan Elixir .

Black Yuan Elixir was similar to a Gathering Qi Pill . It could help a guy in the Gathering Yuan State double his results with half the effort in practice .

Revival Elixir wasn't for practice, but it could help one recover his strength quickly .

This kind of panacea wasn't less popular than panaceas at all . In a fight, as long as the two opponents didn't have a huge difference in states, usually the one who could last longer won .

Some powerful people were besieged and died of exhaustion . There were many such examples .

For example, Jiang Chen's father Jiang Qingyu was caught by the Black Dragon City because he was stuck in a battle that wore him down and then was subdued by a tactical formation .

The thing was, although the whole world knew how important it was to recover strength, there were only a few of this kind of panacea .

And the current ones didn't work so well . They could only recover a little strength, and it took a long time . This was fatal in a battle .

In this sense, Revival Elixir was different . It was one of the best among the recovery panaceas used in the Sacred Zone .

Even in a desperate fight, one could see obvious changes, even if he only took one elixir .

The last one was Sky Yuan Elixir . It was used for practice . What made it special was its ability to purify the genuine yuan of a guy in the Gathering Yuan State .

Once these three panaceas were refined successfully, Jiang Chen would make a great fortune without having to leave the house .

When Jiang Chen was about to refine the panaceas, he felt the advantages of a top ten sect and school . He could find whatever medicinal materials he needed here and the amount was abundant .

Jiang Chen borrowed money from Wen Xin again . This time, he said, "It's about time . As soon as I get the panaceas ready, the Redcloud Peak will be the richest peak among the senior disciples' . "

"These are the last fifty thousand contributions my family gave me . Take them . " Wen Xin was resolute as always . She gave him her disciple token immediately .

The disciples' contributions were recorded in their disciple tokens .

Just then, Jiang Chen recalled what Meng Hao had said . He hesitated and didn't take the token right away .

He thought for a while, and said, "Meng Hao told me you liked me . "

If Meng Hao were here, he would definitely kick Jiang Chen .

Wen Xin was frozen . Coldness showed in her eyes . She said emotionlessly, "I'm gonna kill him . "

Then she looked up to Jiang Chen and asked, "What are you trying to say?"

Jiang Chen looked serious and terribly rational . "I want to say I am wholeheartedly looking to achieve the peak of martial arts techniques . I don't have extra time for—"

"Enough!" Wen Xin interrupted him and said discontentedly, "Don't worry . I don't like you . I moved here because I wanted you to instruct my swordsmanship and I want to see more progress quickly . Like you, I am also wholeheartedly trying to reach the peak . "

"That's great . " Jiang Chen grinned, as if he had removed a huge burden from his back . He took the disciple token and left Wen Xin's room .

As soon as he left, Wen Xin's whole face turned red, even her neck .

"Bastard!" she scolded while watching him leave .

Jiang Chen sneezed and scratched his head .

Then he asked Meng Hao to purchase the materials he needed, and went into the alchemist room when he got them .

Meng Hao was guarding outside . In a short while, he heard fire burning inside . Then there was smoke coming through the window, along with the slight aroma of medicine .

An hour later, Meng Hao started to worry about Jiang Chen .

He could sense the high temperature in the alchemist room even from outside . One would imagine it was like a steamer inside .

He hesitated to knock, but the door was opened from the inside . The heat wave rushed at him like a fiery dragon, forcing him to step back .

Jiang Chen walked out of the smoke like a celestial being descending to the earth . He was totally drenched in sweat .

"Have you succeeded?" Meng Hao asked .

"Of course," Jiang Chen smiled confidently . He wiped the sweat off of his face and said, "I'll deploy a cooling formation in the alchemist room later . Otherwise I'll die from overheating . "

"Take this . "

Jiang Chen gave Meng Hao a jade bottle with the three kinds of panaceas inside .

"They are equivalent to three months' disciple benefits," Jiang Chen said .

Meng Hao beamed . He thanked Jiang Chen while taking the bottle . He opened the bottle and smelled it . Suddenly, he felt refreshed .

"Jiang Chen, it seems to me that you are incapable of nothing," Meng Hao exclaimed .

Jiang Chen found three wooden boxes and filled them with the three kinds of panaceas . Then he headed for the chamber of commerce for senior disciples with Meng Hao .
