The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 1493 Immortal Lord Ziyun?

"I have studied 'The Fundamentals of Daoist Alchemy,' 'The Complete Book of Medicinal Herbs,' and 'The Eight Methods of Alchemy'..."

Lin Chen spoke at length, then thought for a moment and added, "Oh, and the Great Luo Elixir Scripture..."

Ouyang Jing looked at Lin Chen in surprise: "You've studied the Great Luo Elixir Scripture?"

Lin Chen replied, "There's only half a book, it should be the first half, which records alchemy techniques and the methods for making several kinds of pills..."

Ouyang Jing said "Oh," and replied, "Yes, that's the first half of the book. The rest is all about pill formulas. Have you learned the first half?"

Lin Chen nodded: "Yes, I wouldn't call myself an expert, but I know a thing or two."

Ouyang Jing looked slightly surprised and smiled, "I originally thought you might be a novice in alchemy, but it seems your basic skills are very solid. Tell me about the pills you can refine."

Lin Chen answered honestly once more. Ouyang Jing stood up and said, "Come on, refine the Seven Emotions Pill for me. Let me see your technique."

Lin Chen asked, "I don't have any medicinal herbs on hand."

"I have no shortage of medicinal herbs here."

Ouyang Jing pointed to the golden alchemy furnace in the center of the room: "You can use that furnace to refine the pills. Have them prepare the medicinal herbs for you. The one on the left is called Ru Shuang, and the one on the right is called Ru Xue. They are my maids here, and also my assistants in refining pills."

"it is good."

The two maids quickly prepared the ingredients for the Seven Emotions Pill for Lin Chen, and Lin Chen began refining it under Ouyang Jing's watchful eye.

Lin Chen wasn't intimidated, but unsurprisingly, his attempt to refine the item failed.

Although Lin Chen was mentally prepared, he was still slightly embarrassed. He had learned the formula for the Seven Emotions Pill, but he had never actually tried to refine it. After all, the pill's effects were rather unusual, and few people had ever refined it.

Ouyang Jing remained calm, even with a slight smile: "Your basic skills are alright... I understand your general level now, which is much better than I expected. To reach this level without expending much effort, you have quite a talent for alchemy."

Lin Chen cupped his hands in greeting: "I hope you will take good care of me, senior."

Ouyang Jing waved his hand: "The matter of alchemy is nothing more than observing, refining, and summarizing. There are no tricks. I will teach you various techniques and alchemy skills, but you still have to rely on yourself to truly study and master them."

"it is good!"

Lin Chen settled down in the valley and stayed there for five years.

Over the course of five years, Lin Chen didn't know how many batches of pills he had refined, but his pill-refining skills continued to improve.

Lin Chen, who was so focused on learning alchemy, even gave up cultivation. His extreme focus led to extreme improvement, and his alchemy skills had reached a very high level. Although he was still some distance from the Pill King Ouyang Jing, he was already able to refine most of the common pills in the entire Immortal Realm.

"Lin Chen, there's nothing more I can teach you. The rest of your improvement will depend on your continuous study and practice." Lin Chen bowed respectfully, "Thank you, senior!"

Ouyang Jing waved his hand casually: "I obtained the Original Alchemy Scripture and taught you alchemy. This is a transaction, and it's what you deserve. Now that my alchemy skills have made breakthroughs and improvements, I'm the one who actually profited from this transaction."

Lin Chen smiled and said, "I have bothered you for five years and ruined countless expensive medicinal herbs. I have finally made some progress. I will remember your guidance."

Ouyang Jing laughed and said, "Those are all minor matters. I've always had a question, and I've always been curious about it..."

Lin Chen replied, "Please ask, senior."

Ouyang Jing stared at Lin Chen and said, "Your master is..."

Lin Chen answered decisively, "White Crane Immortal Sect, Heavenly Sword Su Shaoling."

"It's him!"

Ouyang Jing suddenly realized and laughed, "That explains it."

Lin Chen hesitated for a moment and said, "Senior, actually, I've always had a question in my mind..."

Ouyang Jing laughed: "Alright, let's lay our cards on the table today. Go ahead and tell me."

Lin Chen asked, "Senior, what exactly is Fairy Ziyun's background?"

Ouyang Jing looked at Lin Chen in surprise: "You didn't know?"

Lin Chen shook his head: "I've been with her for a long time, but she never told me anything, only that her name is Fairy Ziyun..."

Ouyang Jing said "Oh," and then unexpectedly shook his head: "I don't know either."

Lin Chen was stunned: "Didn't she say she had met you before, an old friend?"

Ouyang Jing replied, "I have indeed seen her, but when I saw her, she wasn't called Fairy Ziyun, but Immortal Lord Ziyun, and she looked much younger than before..."

Ziyun Immortal Lord has become Ziyun Fairy, and she looks even younger than before.
Ouyang Jing pondered for a few seconds and said, "Immortal Lord Ziyun hasn't made a move many times, but she is powerful, ruthless, and quite famous. She never talks about her origins, but many people speculate that she might be from Qingyun Valley..."

Qingyun Valley?
Qingyun Valley, that mysterious place where few enter the world, but those who do become powerful.
Ouyang Jing laughed and said, "Of course, this is just a guess. I can't guarantee whether it's true or not."

Lin Chen nodded and smiled, "Even if it's just a guess, it's still very good..."
