19: Alchemy

"Not going to call me that, are you? Then I can only continue." Yang Lingchen gave a wicked smile.

He continued to tickle her. Her skin was so delicate that he was actually a bit reluctant to let go.

"Ha... ha... Husband, please spare me!"

Tickled until her whole body felt itchy, Feng Xueqing finally began to beg for mercy.

"Haha...!"

Right then, Feng Xueqing, who had been lying quietly, suddenly trembled all over.

Following that, a faint blush gradually rose on her stunning cheeks. She looked extraordinarily beautiful and moving, like a delicate flower blooming in spring.

"Holy crap, what the hell is going on? What kind of expression is that? Why does she look like she's enjoying it? I didn't tickle her into stupidity, did I?"

Yang Lingchen was completely bewildered, his eyes wide open and his heart full of confusion.

"Little girl, are you okay?"

Yang Lingchen asked with a hint of curiosity, and then he reluctantly let go of Feng Xueqing's flawless, jade-like hand.

"Yang Lingchen, you're finished. This Young Lady is definitely going to break your third leg."

Feng Xueqing scolded in a tender voice, her expression gradually calming down.

At this moment, her beautiful eyes stared coldly at Yang Lingchen, her gaze seemingly hiding countless sharp blades as if she wanted to cut him into a thousand pieces.

"Feng Xueqing, we don't seem to have that much enmity! Wasn't it just snatching a profound spirit ginseng from you? At most, I'll pay you back later. I'm leaving now."

Yang Lingchen spoke quickly, tapped Feng Xueqing a few times to release her restrictions, then shifted his feet and leaped, instantly disappearing into the dense forest in the distance.

"Yang Lingchen, you despicable, shameless, lowly scoundrel, you just wait for This Young Lady!"

Feng Xueqing shouted loudly in anger, her voice filled with rage.

Thinking of her reaction just now, her stunning cheeks instantly turned as red as a ripe apple, while her beautiful eyes burned with endless fury.

From childhood to now, Feng Xueqing had never been so humiliated in front of a man.

However, what made her feel strange was that the peculiar feeling just now was actually quite comfortable. In all her years, this was the first time she had such an experience... Inner Sect of Heavenly Origin Palace.

"Brother, did you find that kid?"

Li Xinyi's beautiful eyes were filled with an angry light, as if a raging fire were burning within them.

She felt immense resentment toward Yang Lingchen. From childhood to now, no one had ever dared to treat her like that.

"Xinyi, don't worry. I've already sent people to investigate. However, there are tens of thousands of Outer Sect Disciples; finding him won't be that easy."

A cold aura flickered in Li Tianxing's eyes, his voice low and suppressed.

An Outer Sect Disciple had not only hit his sister but also extorted him. How could he swallow this resentment?

"I will definitely make him wish he were dead." Li Xinyi gritted her teeth, a deep malice in her eyes as if she wanted to completely devour Yang Lingchen... Outer Sect of Heavenly Origin Palace.

"Is that kid back yet?"

Chen Ming's gaze was incredibly sharp, like a keen blade, staring straight at the sturdy youth before him.

"Not yet, but I've already had people watch his residence. I'll notify you as soon as he returns."

The sturdy youth spoke in a low voice, his tone filled with awe.

"Good. This time, This Young Master will definitely break all four of his limbs."

A chilling coldness emanated from Chen Ming's eyes.

Whenever he thought of the loss he suffered at Yang Lingchen's hands, a towering rage surged in his heart, making him wish he could immediately tear Yang Lingchen into ten thousand pieces... Heavenly Origin Palace, Mission Hall.

Returning to the Mission Hall once more, Yang Lingchen handed in the completed missions one by one.

At the same time, he used the large number of Yao Beast corpses in his possession to exchange for many contribution points. After a careful count, he had actually earned over twenty thousand contribution points.

In the Tianyuan Sect, as long as a Disciple could hunt Yao Beasts or gather precious medicinal herbs, they could exchange them for contribution points. After all, many parts of a Yao Beast were important Materials for Alchemy and Artifact Refining.

Simultaneously, Yang Lingchen used those twenty thousand contribution points to exchange for many Alchemy Materials used for refining Bright Profound Realm Medicinal Pills.

Next was Alchemy. As long as he had Bright Profound Realm Medicinal Pills, Yang Lingchen was confident he could quickly Breakthrough to the Profound Understanding Realm.

Returning to his residence once again, Yang Lingchen tidied up and prepared to begin Alchemy.

Bang...!

"Little Bastard, today This Young Master is going to break your four limbs."

Just then, the door was suddenly kicked open with a heavy thud. Chen Ming walked in with an extremely cold gaze and a face full of ferocity, followed by over a dozen lackeys.

"Fuck, you're looking for death."

Yang Lingchen's eyes narrowed as fury instantly flared within him. Without a word, he swung his spiked mace and charged at Chen Ming.

Bang... Bang... Bang... Bang...!

"I'll teach you to act tough."

"I'll teach you to disturb me."

"I'll teach you to call yourself 'This Young Master' in front of me."

"I'll teach you to be so ugly."

"I'll teach you to have a filthy mouth."

Yang Lingchen roared while swinging the spiked mace in a flurry of strikes.

He was just about to start Alchemy. Chen Ming barging in like this was lucky he hadn't started yet; otherwise, a whole furnace of pills would have been completely ruined.

In the face of absolute strength, within a few breaths, Chen Ming was beaten by Yang Lingchen until he looked like a swollen pig's head.

As for the lackeys who came with Chen Ming, they were terrified by Yang Lingchen's brutality and retreated repeatedly.

They knew very well that when Yang Lingchen made a move, he wouldn't stop until he had beaten someone senseless, leaving them with no power to fight back.

"Little Bastard, you're dead. Having offended my Tiger Society, there will be no place for you in the Outer Sect of Heavenly Origin Palace."

Chen Ming stared at Yang Lingchen with malicious eyes. Despite his current pathetic state, he still stubbornly spat out threats.

Crack, crack.

"Fuck, you still dare to act tough?" Yang Lingchen smashed down twice more with his mace.

Following two crisp sounds of bone breaking, Chen Ming's legs were instantly shattered by Yang Lingchen.

"Young people can be arrogant and domineering, but they shouldn't be brainlessly arrogant. To keep acting tough after being floored is just seeking death."

Yang Lingchen reached out his right hand and lightly patted Chen Ming's face, looking like he was lecturing a Junior, his tone full of disdain.

"You..."

Rage surged to Chen Ming's heart. His eyes rolled back, and he fainted on the spot from pure anger.

"That's it? Tsk, I thought you were someone important!"

Yang Lingchen gave a disdainful sneer, stripped off Chen Ming's Storage Pouch, and then kicked him out.

Subsequently, Yang Lingchen left his residence. He chose not to continue Alchemy there because Alchemy required an extremely quiet and undisturbed environment. If he were interrupted at a critical moment, the loss would be massive.

Yang Lingchen found a very secluded spot, hid the Vast Heaven Jade properly, and then entered the haotian jade space.

Yang Lingchen took out the Pill Furnace and then carefully sorted the portions of medicinal herbs.

Following Ling Juechen's Alchemy memories, Yang Lingchen activated the Pill Fire, controlling the heat with extreme care, and then began placing the herbs into the furnace one by one.

Although he possessed the memories of the Pill God Ling Juechen, this was only his second time performing Alchemy, so his technique was still somewhat unrefined.

Of course, this 'unrefined' was only in comparison to a Pill God like Ling Juechen.

If compared to ordinary Alchemists on the Tianwu Continent, his technique could already be described as masterful.

Bang...

About fifteen minutes later, a furnace of supreme grade bright profound pills was successfully refined by Yang Lingchen.

"Haha! supreme grade bright profound pills."

Yang Lingchen laughed heartily, feeling very satisfied with the results of this Alchemy session.

With the bright profound pills, his cultivation would soon be able to rise rapidly.

Afterward, Yang Lingchen threw himself back into Alchemy.

Several hours passed in the blink of an eye.

After several hours of meticulous refining, Yang Lingchen successfully produced another twenty furnaces of pills.

Ten of those furnaces were Advanced bright profound pills. Since he planned to sell these ten batches, he intentionally refined them into Advanced pills to avoid drawing too much attention.

As for the supreme grade pills, he intended to keep them for his own use.

After a brief tidying up, Yang Lingchen quietly left the haotian jade space and headed toward the Outer Sect trading plaza.

He planned to go there to sell some pills and earn some contribution points and Spirit Stones along the way.

Heavenly Origin Palace, Outer Sect Disciple Trading Plaza.

Yang Lingchen found an empty stall, brought out a table, and then took out several Advanced bright profound pills, arranging them neatly on top.

Then, he set up a sign in front of his stall, neatly writing on it: "Advanced bright profound pills, 1,000 contribution points each, or 30 Low-Grade Spirit Stones."

The Outer Sect trading plaza was a place specifically for Outer Sect Disciples to trade items.

Here, many people were selling weapons, medicinal herbs, or things like Cultivation Techniques and Martial Skills.

Of course, in the Outer Sect trading plaza, there were basically no particularly precious treasures; they were all low-level weapons and Elementary Cultivation Techniques and Martial Skills.

After all, no one would be willing to bring truly good things here to sell... [Realms: Yuan Gathering, Mingxuan, Tongxuan, Void Inquiry, Entering Profound, Returning Profound, Spirit Profound, Spirit Sea, King, Emperor]
