Chapter 119 Medicinal Hall
When Long Ming and Mu Qinglian returned to the sect, it was already past noon. When Long Ming returned to his Solitary Flower Peak, he saw Chu Li was already there.
" Ah! Senior Brother Long! You are here!"
" Hmm? Chu Li? What brings you here?"
Chu Li smiled with light shyness. " Umm, Senior Brother, the Soaring Water Moon Art is pretty profound for me. I can't understand some parts of the technique,"
Long Ming nodded " No worries. I will teach you in an easier way"
Long Ming already mastered the Soaring Water Moon Art. Therefore, Teaching Chu Li wasn't too big of a task for him. He slowly explained the profundity of the technique, making Chu Li got mesmerized by that.
" Chu Li, Unlike before, You have completely awakened your physique. The restriction of your cultivation has been lifted or even improved." Long Ming spoke.
"Therefore, You must seize this chance and improve your cultivation, making up the time you have lost." Long Ming looked at Chu Li and pondered.
" You have spent too much time in the Violet Palace Expansion Realm. Your foundation is solid, so multiple breakthroughs wouldn't be an issue."
" Multiple breakthroughs?" Chu Li gasped. " Senior Brother, wouldn't that be difficult for me? I mean, Multiple breakthroughs are something that only top geniuses could do."
" Top geniuses? What rubbish." Long Ming snorted. " As long as you have enough comprehension and support, you can break through as much as you want."
" Do you still have the Water Pearl Pills of Elder Liang?"
" Yes, Senior Brother. I haven't used them." Chu Li spoke.
" Very well, take it out and eat all of them at once."
" What?!"
Chu Li was dumbfounded when she heard that. " All at once?"
" Hurry up and don't ask." Long Ming chuckled, standing behind Chu Li. " Don't worry, You won't die, Chu Li. How can I harm my junior sister?"
Chu Li's heart thumped when Long Ming stood so near. She swallowed her saliva and nodded. She sat on a rock and took out a pill bottle. Inside it, there were five blue colored pills inside it.
" Tch, It's just Water Pearl Qi, and only two of them were at Mid grade pills while three of them were Low grade. Is Elder Liang really a Grandmaster Alchemist?"
Chu Li was stunned when she heard Long Ming's mutters. " Umm, Senior Brother, Refining pills are pretty hard you know. Not to mention, one has to go through many failures to refine a perfect batch of pills. Elder Liang concocted pills as fast as she could, so she might have not focused on the quality of the pills."
" I don't think so." Long Ming shrugged. " Since she is a Grandmaster Alchemist, she should be able to refine this pill easily. But I guess, some people are really talentless, huh?"
Chu Li trembled as she was shocked by Long Ming's blatant words.? Without saying anything else, she ate all five pills at once.
*BOOM BOOM*
A rich wave of Water Qi burst around her body as her divine sea was filled with it. Although they were only Mid grade and Low grade pills, the medicinal energy was definitely not low at all.
Chu Lu's expression turned contorted as she felt her divine sea swelling up. However, at that moment, she felt Long Ming placing his palm on her back.
" Don't worry. Just close your eyes and recite the chant along with me. Try to remember everything I have taught you and start circulating the Soaring Water Moon Art."
Chu Li's anxious heart calmed down when she heard Long Ming's voice. As if they contained some mysterious power, Chu Li felt like it would be as easy as cake.
Slowly, she circulated her technique as the Water Qi flower in her vein. She activated her River Carp Physique as a blue colored fish jumped out from her body, swallowing the Water Qi.
The true qi around her surged as they started to condense in her divine sea.
*BOOM BOOM*
Long Ming could feel the clash of true qi inside her dantian as the blue-colored carp swallowed the Water Qi.
As time passed, the true qi was absorbed by the palace foundation of Chu Li as the new Celestial Pillars started to emerge in her Divine Sea.
Chu Li's body trembled as his cultivation started to soar.? Mid stage of Violet Palace Expansion Realm, then High stage…Then all the way to the Peak stage, Chu Li reached it in two hours.
" This… This… This is too absurd!"
Chu Li slowly opened her eyes as she looked at his divine sea. She could feel the nine polished white colored Celestial Pillars, standing like towers.
" I created nine Celestial Pillars. And… All of them were Polished grade." Chu Li stammered.
There were also qualitative and quantitative differences between the Celestial Pillars. For example, Chu Li managed to create nine Polished grade Celestial Pillar, which is almost the highest grade a normal cultivator can have.
But Long Ming's Celestial Pillars were Heavenly grade pillars, which even surpassed ancient geniuses.
" Well, Before the Imperial Tournament begins, you might able to reach the True Core Formation Realm." Long Ming smiled. " Hmm? This…"
Long Ming's Heavenly Revelation Eyes flickered as he looked at Chu Li. " Chu Li, can you activate your physique? Let me see if you received any special ability from your physique."
" Well, Apart from managing a vast amount of Water Qi, I think… My Spiritual Qi increased."
A blue colored carp appeared around Chu Li as he released his spiritual pressure. Long Ming nodded with satisfaction when he realized Chu Li's soul was as powerful as a Mid stage True Core Formation Realm.
" I guess the true power of your physique lies in the Spiritual Qi. Using Water Qi and Spiritual Qi, you might become an excellent Rune Master."
" Rune Master? Hmm, Actually, I have more interest in alchemy though." Chu Li blushed.
" Alchemist? Hmm…" Long Ming pondered." Alchemist works with Fire Qi, which is the opposite of Water Qi. However, it's not like you can't become an alchemist."
" I thought it would conflict with my cultivation?" Chu Li was a bit worried.
" Not really. As long as you can balance your Fire Qi with Water Qi, You will able to become an excellent alchemist." Long Ming spoke. " Here, Take this technique. This is called Flame Dragon's Breath."
" Although it's more like a Fire type battle technique, you will be able to be more natural with Fire Qi after practicing this," Long Ming spoke. " Hmm, You will need some pills to balance two different qi like that. I will bring it for you."
" Wahhh! Senior Brother, You are so good!" Chu Li turned around and hugged Long Ming tightly. Long Ming's expression was a bit stiff when he saw that.
' Hmm, Chu Li is still growing… I will let her grow a bit more.'
Long Ming thought about something as he nodded. " Chu Li, You should stay here and stabilize your cultivation. I will go to the Medicinal Hall for some work."
" Yes, Senior Brother."
Long Ming turned around and disappeared, flying toward the Medicinal Hall. When he arrived there, a dense medicinal aroma hit his nostrills as he walked inside.
" Huh? Isn't that Senior Brother Long?"
" Oh my! Senior Brother is here, in Medicinal Hall?
" Let me inform all our sisters!"
" Kyahhh~"
Long Ming didn't walk to the Alchemy Room, but to the place Study Room. There were several shelves of books regarding alchemy and pill refinement. Long Ming didn't waste any time on the characteristics of medicinal herbs as he learned the Flame Controlling and Pill Refinement.
' Skill Learn skill is pretty good. I already have a basic grasp of refining the medicinal essence thanks to my Wine Master Profession. So, I can learn alchemy even more thoroughly.'
Long Ming didn't talk to anyone for one hour as he comprehended everything he read in the Study Hall. After that, we he opened his eyes, he saw that many girls were surrounding him.
All of them were silent as they looked at Long Ming with sparkling gaze, with hidden scent of desires. However, all of them were completely silent, as if they were afraid of disturbing Long Ming.
" Ahem, Greetings, Junior Sisters. I hope I didn't disturb you guys?"
" No!! Not at all."
" it's a pleasure that you came to our department, Senior Brother Long."
Long Ming's Heavenly Revelation Eyes flashed as he looked at the girls. Not only were they covered with dense medicinal qi, but they also looked pretty exhausted.
' I guess alchemy is really draining their energy and time, huh? They are almost the same as employees of a black company.' Long Ming clicked his tongue.
" Junior Sisters, First of all, I thank you sincerely. Thanks to you guys, our sect is receiving a steady supply of herbs and medicines." Long Ming smiled.
A small praise of Long Ming seemed to evaporate the exhaustion and fatigue of those female disciples as their eyes sparkled with joy.
" Thank you, Senior Brother Long."
" You are too polite, Senior Brother."
"Hehe, Don't worry. We will continue to work hard."
Long Ming nodded as he looked at one of them. " Well, Since I am here for the first time, is any junior sister willing to show me something about alchemy technique?"
" Sure, Senior Brother!"
" We are willing to show you our pill refinement techniques!"

*After Three Hours*
" Look at this! Senior Brother Long! I managed to make Mid rank Spirit Grade pills only after five failures."
" Senior Brother is my lucky charm! I managed to refine a Xuan grade pill and I only exploded two cauldrons for this!"
Long Ming's face turned dark when he saw the results. It's the same as giving twice of effort and having half of the result… No, it's half of half a result.
' What the fuck with this level of resources burning?! I need to do something!'
