Chapter 31: My Tree
Out of the seven elders in this Outer Grotto, perhaps Elder Mang Shu's fame was at rock bottom. There's not much to speak about here, as the elder was too low profile. If it were not for Elder Wei Xuan's remark, he'd still be known by Chen Tu and Qin Lei as the "Nameless Elder."Many disciples mistook him for the Book Pavilion Elder. However, he was, in fact, the person in charge of the Training Hall. The Pavilion Elder was a woman and the only female elder of the Blood Refining Grotto.Meanwhile, Elder Wei Xuan wasn't as low profile as the former, but he too was considered one of the few. The only thing that kept elevating his fame in this Outer Grotto was none other than his expertise and position as an alchemist.As a matter of fact, he was one of the two alchemists in this Blood Refining Grotto, responsible for all the pills available for purchase in Outer Grotto.He was considered the fourth of seven elders, with Elder Mang Shu at rock bottom. But in terms of cultivation, perhaps

Chapter 32: Harvesting
"Coming over to your tree? Unless you're away, who can come here? This shitty restriction itself already kicked everyone below Golden Core Layer away." said Elder Wei Xuan. It could also stop him from approaching if he hasn't reached the realm of a Golden Core Cultivator."But that kid did. Effortlessly." Elder Mang said."What did you say?" Elder Wei Xuan missed that reply. Even if he didn't, it was just too hard to believe."Do you think that I am the one that approaches that brat? He was the one that came through my barrier and spoke to me. Or else, who do I rely upon to get some wine?" Elder Mang gave a squinted look while replying.He appeared to be slightly dissatisfied with Elder Wei and the rest. But no matter how unhappy he seemed, Elder Mang didn't touch anything sensitive about his stay on this tree."That's impossible! He's merely a second-level Body Tempering brat. Did he have some secret treasure on him? Or maybe, refined plenty of Pure Spiritual Beast Essence from a you

Chapter 33: Burial Root
The rest of the disciples swiftly made their way into the Spiritual Garden, with Chen Tu and Qin Lei taking the lead. This pair of junior and senior brothers had already planned it out yesterday to make haste toward the furthest field.With only ten fields worth of Burial Roots all over this Spiritual Garden, the disciples had no choice but to share them evenly. Five of the fields will naturally have one extra disciple sharing them.Of course, having less competition doesn't mean it'll be better, in this case, like today.It was no secret that searching to dig out a Burial Root would take a quarter to half an hour. Furthermore, this timing was based on the speed of an experienced gatherer. And at the same time, this assumed that the Spiritual Herb has matured.If they weren't, the entire process, from removing to filling the soil back, would take a little over half an hour. Based on their standard of ten working hours, that would equal going through twenty Spiritual Plants.It was con

Chapter 34: Second Drop Of Sun And Moon Essence
"Fourteen roots!" Elder Wei Xuan read the number he has written down aloud to bring some meritorious points for Chen Tu. Even a fool could see through the elder's intention behind this.After writing the word down in the account book, the elder opened his palm with the brush, intending to handle the pen over to Chen Tu. It was obvious that he wanted Chen Tu to hold the pen."El - Elder?" Chen Tu was surprised by the elder's straightforward approach. Unsure what he wanted him to do, Chen Tu politely asked."Write down the name yourself." the elder said.While he knew that he couldn't expect too much from this junior, he should at least know how to write down his name. Furthermore, he was curious to see how much Chen Tu learned after a single night.Chen Tu calmed his raging heart before bravely reaching out to the brush. Next, he turned the tip of this brush facing down and adjusted his standing posture.This was something Chen Tu was taught last night when deciphering the Language Jad

Chapter 35: Attempting Third Level
At first, Chen Tu was slightly skeptical of the results. But he changed his mind after discovering that his body could still absorb more Spiritual Energy to produce a hint of Moon Essence.Although he wasn't sure how big was his holding capacity, it shouldn't be less than two drops of Sun and Moon Essence.(Could the amount of Sun and Moon Essence my body could hold is connected to my cultivation level? If I can store two drops at the second level of the Body Tempering Layer, would it increase to three after I advance?)Chen Tu had an undisclosed theory. But sadly, he had no one else to share this together. And only time and familiarity with cultivation could answer his hypothesis in the future.After circulating the Sun and Moon Condensation Art twice, Chen Tu shifted his attention to the Language Jade next. Chen Tu's consciousness immediately abandoned its physical body after injecting some Spiritual Energy into the treasure.He arrived in the studying space once more.To Chen Tu's

Chapter 36: Third Level In Body Tempering Layer
"Aargh!" the suffering got through Chen Tu's mental defenses and forced him to release a painful cry. The trial for advancing their level was usually accompanied by multiple nerve-breaking tortures.Of course, a cultivator's strong mental fortitude was thanks to these trials. From Flesh to Bones and Bones to Blood, these were the three trials a cultivator had to overcome to achieve the peak strength of the Body Tempering Layer.Only by completing these nine trial levels can a cultivator obtain the qualification to challenge the Spiritual Condensation Layer.According to what the experts in the higher cultivation realm shared, Body Tempering was a stage where one prepared their body to achieve immortality. And Spiritual Condensation is where an individual learns how to respire like an immortal."Ah - Aargh!" Chen Tu gave out his second painful cry. The entire process was akin to destroying his flesh and recovering them. And without a doubt, this process was accompanied by bleeding and

Chapter 37: Wang Yun
"I don't think there's a name written on any of the seats here. Plus, there are so many seats nearby, why do you insist on using this table?" Chen Tu had a slight irritation in his voice when responding to them.Although he could simply return to the counter to grab another plate of food, it was still a provocating action from them to slap his breakfast off the table.It might be a few steamed buns and a plate of stir-fried vegetables, but to Chen Tu, this kind of food is something he hardly got to eat back in the Chen Family Manor."Who are you to question what we do? Are you deaf, huh? I said, this table is reserved for our young master Wang!" the disciple continued. His hand was already on its way to Chen Tu's collar at the end of his sentence."Who is that young master Wang?" Chen Tu asked. The disciple's action had gotten into Chen Tu's bad side, and he retaliated by grabbing that hand in a flash. Additionally, Chen Tu waved his hand off the table, slapping the disciple's face on

Chapter 38: Broken Nose
"How dare you try to go against me here in this Outer Grotto?" Wang Yun yelled and raised his hand in an attempt to slap Chen Tu. But his attack missed the target.Instead, Chen Tu had been ready for quite some time.As a servant before this, he had gotten used to the petty tricks those young misses and masters tried to do. They would always raise their voice to attract people's attention before slapping at the servant to bring out the best effect.Perhaps in their mind, they'll gain some popularity from doing so.Unfortunately, the Chen Tu today was no longer a slave servant as before. And as someone who often experienced this kind of treatment, how could he be unaware of what Wang Yun was trying to do?Chen Tu dodged the slap beautifully and returned the favor by slapping him back.**PA!**That sound from that slap was memorable. At the same time, smiles can be seen on a few disciples nearby. Needless to say, these people were those who got shamed by Wang Yun before.What could be m

Chapter 39: Title Plaque
"Had the gossip already spread until here?" Chen Tu smiled in embarrassment, with his finger scratching his nose gently."It was just some exaggerated gossip by the others, senior brother. You don't have to take their words seriously," he added, but neither denies that he had broken Wang Yun's nose.After all, there's no point denying that fact because the truth will be exposed sooner or later. It would be more inappropriate for Chen Tu to say anything once the actual story regarding the fight surfaced.Furthermore, the incident reminded Chen Tu about something he had experienced while accompanying Chen Zigang.The incident happened when both of them were about eight years old. Back then, Chen Zigang and Chen Tu were involved in a major fight between the youths outside the Liu Family Manor.In his attempt to gain victory, Chen Zigang didn't hesitate to resort to deadly tactics. He broke one of his opponent's legs as collateral to stop the rest from coming at him and Chen Tu.As a resu

Chapter 40: Sweet Potato
(Why wasn't I the one to be given the Bronze-Titled Plaque! I heard that those with the plaque could enjoy top-level treatment in all business establishments and a further 20% discount on all purchases in businesses related to the Heavenly Alchemist Association!)Their eyes were burning with jealousy. With that plaque, wouldn't they be allowed to buy a Spiritual Replenishing Pill for eight Spiritual Coins instead of ten? Similarly, the plaque holder can exchange ten pills for eight Contribution Tokens.Such a discount means it is possible to get more cultivation resources while spending less. And in this world, who would complain about having more resources?At the same time, it allowed them to look at Chen Tu more seriously. Suppose he is already so well-treated right now. Won't that assure Chen Tu a position of the elder's second official disciple when the timing was correct?If that happened, they would have to address Chen Tu as their second senior disciple. And if this was someth
