Shen Yuan Ring

Chapter 189 Returning to the Pill Hall

Time flies like an arrow, and a day passes in the blink of an eye.

The spatial passage leading to the Lotus Sect ruins slowly closed at the last moment, and the elders of the various forces finally realized that those who did not return had virtually no chance of survival.

They could never return to this world; they could only sleep eternally in that unknown land.

As the spatial passage closed, the leaders and elders of the various factions gathered together, clasped their hands in greeting, and bid each other farewell.

However, despite all their schemes, the demons were unable to obtain the scriptures from Ji Daoyi and Wu De.

Nevertheless, deep down she firmly believed that the scriptures must be on Ji Daoyi.

Although Wu De also had the possibility of possessing the scriptures, the demon was convinced of its own intuition.

After a brief and polite exchange of pleasantries, these powerful individuals from different families and sects turned and embarked on their journeys home, gradually disappearing into the distance.

Watching Ji Daoyi leave with Dan Daozi, Chi Mei did not chase after them. She just took a deep look at him and then quickly left with her people.

Some figures disappeared into the horizon, becoming tiny dots; others vanished into the dense forests, leaving no trace.

The square in front of the Tianji Pavilion gradually returned to its usual tranquility, as if this grand adventure had never happened.

the other side,

After leaving the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion, Dan Daozi led Ji Daoyi and several others onto a main road.

In this short day, Ji Daoyi actively interacted with other disciples of the Pill Hall, trying to understand the situation of the Pill Hall.

However, to his dismay, the vast majority of people seemed indifferent to him.

These people always treated him with a condescending and disdainful attitude, as if to say, "Hmph, what right does a guy from some backwater have to talk to us like an equal?"

Faced with this situation, Ji Daoyi was dissatisfied, but he also knew that it was not advisable to make enemies when he first arrived, so he did not bother with these people.

I simply wrote these people down in my mental notebook, thinking, "Today you ignore me, tomorrow you'll be begging for my attention."

"Dao Yi, you don't need to pay attention to those arrogant and incompetent guys. They've always been like that! Once your master clears your name, they won't be like that anymore."

Ji Daoyi replied, "Ke'er, I'm fine!"

The speaker was a young girl whose long, black hair cascaded down to her waist like a waterfall, swaying gently in the wind as if it could stir the heartstrings.

Her figure was graceful and slender, with exquisite curves, and her pink dress made her look like a peach blossom in spring.

Her large, delicate eyes and pouting lips accentuated her youthful innocence and cuteness.

The dark green bracelet on her right wrist was crystal clear and smooth as jade, which complemented her snow-white skin and made her look even more radiant.

This girl was the only one willing to get close to Ji Daoyi; her name was Cheng Ke'er.

Like Ji Daoyi, she was not from Zhongzhou. She was chosen by an honorary elder of the Pill Hall by chance because of her extraordinary talent in alchemy.

She was able to participate in this exploration of the ruins with others entirely thanks to her powerful master.

"By the way, what are your plans for the future? You know, if your master goes into seclusion for a long time, you won't be able to gain the recognition of the Pill Hall. During this period, you won't receive any benefits from the Pill Hall!" Cheng Ke'er asked Ji Daoyi.

"Well... we'll just have to take it one step at a time! Speaking of which, I've never been to Zhongzhou before, so this is a good opportunity to explore it properly. As for you, what are your plans after you go back?"

Ji Daoyi didn't care. After all, he had no choice but to come to Zhongzhou this time, and he never expected to get free resources. Moreover, he already had enough resources to cultivate for a long time.

That's why he can be so calm; most people would be crying and complaining if they were in his shoes.

Hearing this, Cheng Ke'er pouted and muttered unhappily, "Sigh, I'm so envious of you! You can do whatever you want, and you have such a cute little wolf like Crescent Moon by your side."

"Unlike me, once I go back, I'll probably only have that alchemy furnace to keep me company all day long. I reckon my master will never let me out of seclusion the day I become a high-level alchemy master."

As Cheng Ke'er complained, her hands kept tugging at Yueya's body, almost stripping all of Yueya's fur off.

"Oh, isn't this great? I still don't know when I'll be able to become a high-level alchemist!" Ji Daoyi tried to comfort him.

However, Cheng Ke'er shook her head vigorously, saying angrily, "What's so good about it! It's not fun at all! All we do all day is refine pills, it's incredibly boring and tedious!"

……

It truly proves the old saying: "Some suffer from drought, while others suffer from floods."

The things in this world are often so unfair and frustrating.

Some people dream of having a renowned mentor to guide them on the road to success; however, there are others who avoid the guidance of renowned mentors like the plague.

However, although geniuses have lost many of the joyful moments they should have had in their childhood, their efforts have not been in vain.

With their exceptional talent and relentless hard work, they eventually reach heights that ordinary people can only dream of, becoming the center of attention and reaping countless accolades and honors.

Time flies like an arrow.

After several days of arduous travel, enduring wind and rain, Ji Daoyi and his entourage finally embarked on their journey home and arrived at the Dan Palace.

The headquarters of the Dan Palace is located in Dan City, the most prosperous and bustling city in the Central Plains.

The name Dancheng may only contain the simple character "Dan," but its profound meaning is extraordinary.

It should be noted that this calligraphy was personally written by the first master of the Pill Hall, a peerless figure known as the Saint of Pill Dao!

Legend has it that when the first Alchemist Sage wrote the character "丹" (Dan), he incorporated his lifelong experience in alchemy into it.

If someone with exceptional talent in alchemy can decipher even a tenth or a twelfth of the essence and mystery of the word "alchemy," then achieving the position of Alchemy Emperor in the future will be as easy as taking candy from a baby, and becoming an Alchemy Saint is not impossible.

However, after tens of thousands of years, very few people have been able to comprehend the Dao of alchemy from it.

Nevertheless, countless alchemists still flocked to this rumor, hoping to gain even the slightest inspiration or insight from it.
