A god-level alchemist, starting by manually crafting forbidden pills.

Luo Fan stood still, looking down at the embroidered shoe that still carried a faint warmth and a sweet fragrance.

Small and exquisite.

The silk uppers of the shoes are embroidered with elegant magnolias.

Could this be considered a unique token of love?

Luo Fan felt a little strange.

After all, it was a young woman's personal item, and she had just taken it off, so he tucked it into his arms.

"Old man, I promised you I would protect Danfeng. I hope you can watch over Senior Sister Bai from heaven and make sure nothing goes wrong."

He looked at Li Chishui's grave and said, "Otherwise, I'll have to dilute your wedding wine."

If Li Chishui could hear this, he would definitely roll his eyes.

And then he said, "You little brat, you're really too filial. Even though I'm dead, you're still threatening me."

Doesn't your conscience hurt?

Back in the alchemy room, Luo Fan frowned in thought.

I promised Zhao Mang and Wang Zhong yesterday that I would come to collect the pills today, so I need to prepare quickly, but I'm having some trouble.

What should I refine?

He wasn't sure if having mastered the Spirit Fusion Technique would mean that the pills he refined would be free of side effects.

Luo Fan decided to try refining the most basic pills, so he fed all six hundred low-grade spirit stones to the Great Dao Furnace.

The spirit stone's luster quickly dimmed, turning to ashes in the blink of an eye. Luo Fan's heart ached so much that he convulsed.

He took out the materials needed to refine the fasting elixir and put them into it one by one.

An hour later, the furnace lid was opened.

Three round, plump pills, white in color and exuding the fragrance of grains, lay at the bottom of the furnace.

Yellow-tier top-grade!

The quality was perfect, and it contained spiritual energy. Luo Fan picked one up, looked at it, and smelled it.

No matter how you look at it or smell it, it's exactly the same as a normal pill.

"Could this technique really control the side effects?"

While normal pills do not possess the miraculous effect of sharing cultivation power, they are almost guaranteed to pass the sect's assessment.

Danfeng was thus saved.

As long as I stay in the sect, why should I worry about not having the opportunity to improve my cultivation while lying down?

"Senior Brother Luo, are you there? Help, Senior Brother!"

Outside the alchemy room.

Then came Zhang Tie's signature loud voice.

Luo Fan opened the door and saw Zhang Tie hesitate, then sighed and sat down on the steps.

"Junior Brother Zhang? What's wrong with you?"

Luo Fan was both amused and exasperated. "Tell me, who humiliated you?"

"Senior brother, you've ruined my life!"

He complained with a frustrated expression, "After taking your Qi-Strengthening Pill, I mastered the Primordial Qi Technique, and my strength has indeed increased greatly, but there's always a strange taste in my mouth..."

He sighed again.

"That's fine, but the problem is that the smell gets even stronger when I use my internal energy. If I don't eat anything, my power is greatly reduced, but if I eat something, I just want to..."

Zhang Tie looked miserable. "Senior brother, you know how this is. How am I supposed to face anyone? You have to think of a way for me. I don't even dare to eat my favorite Purple Vermilion Fruit anymore."

His attitude was clear: he wouldn't leave unless Luo Fan resolved the aftereffects.

Anyway, there's no shortage of food and drink in Danfeng, and you might even get a free elixir or something.

Senior Brother Luo, on the other hand, certainly doesn't want the sect to find out about his pills, so he will definitely find a solution for him.

"Junior brother, don't panic. I expected this situation."

Luo Fan remained outwardly calm, but inwardly he was overjoyed. He took out the refined pill.

"This pill is called the Purifying Origin and Abstaining from Grains Pill. It is made using the ancient method of cleansing clothes and is forged with the help of the secret technique of purifying the mind."

It specifically counteracts the impure energy generated by your practice, and can also purify your internal energy, alleviating any awkwardness during practice!

Hey!

If Zhang Tie wants to use the Hunyuan Qi Gong in the future, he will have to keep his Bigu Pill on hand.

He saw his long-term meal ticket beckoning to him!

"Huh? Isn't this just a regular fasting pill?"

Zhang Tie didn't see anything special about it.

Just as he was about to reach for it, Luo Fan pulled his hand back. "Thank you, one hundred low-grade spirit stones."

"What?!

One hundred yuan?! Senior, are you robbing me?!

Zhang Tie gasped. "This thing is worth at most ten low-grade spirit stones in the market. Besides, isn't this after-sales service? Why are you charging me?"

"That's not true. How could my item be ordinary?"

Luo Fan remained calm and composed, saying, "This pill contains the true essence of ancient methods. One hundred spirit stones is already a discount given because of our affinity!"

He patted Zhang Tie on the shoulder, winking and saying, "Think about it, have any of the pills I gave you before caused you any harm?"

He doesn't know whether others have suffered a loss or not, but Luo Fan will never let himself suffer a loss.

Zhang Tie paused for a moment, then thought back carefully.

That seems to be the case. His strength has improved, so he definitely didn't lose out!

With trembling hands, he took out the spirit stone and handed it to Luo Fan, but held it in his hand for a long time without letting go.

His eyes were fixed on it, until finally he deflated like a punctured balloon.

"I believe my senior brother!"

Zhang Tie seemed to remember something, "By the way, Senior Brother, Senior Brother Ji Kun from the Hall of Affairs contacted me privately yesterday and asked who helped me improve my strength."

Luo Fan's heart skipped a beat. "What did you say?"

"I said it was an epiphany I had!"

Zhang Tie scratched his head, "But Senior Brother Ji doesn't seem to believe it. He's a very cunning person. Senior Brother, you should be careful not to give him any leverage."

After saying that, Zhang Tie left in a hurry.

Luo Fan stood still, his brows slightly furrowed.

Ji Kun, the eldest disciple of the Hall of Deacons.

Why is he asking about this?

At this moment, in front of the deacon's hall.

Dozens of disciples stood in neat rows, fully prepared and ready to go.

Bai Jie stood at the front of the group, wearing a light purple belted long dress that accentuated her shapely figure.

Beneath the hem of her skirt, a pair of long, straight legs were faintly visible, and she wore soft boots with cloud patterns on her feet.

It makes her appear even taller, and her cool temperament is enhanced by a rare mature charm.

She held the jade bottle containing the Exploding Pill, a blush creeping across her cheeks.

Why did I... throw my shoe in his face?

Looking back now, it was really outrageous. Could that little rascal have thought of something else?

Or perhaps...

What were they secretly doing with her shoes?

Bai Jie felt increasingly embarrassed and regretful as she thought about it.

If that little rascal hadn't angered her, she wouldn't have done such a thing; it's too late to regret it now.

"Senior Sister Bai, everyone has arrived. We can set off now," a disciple stepped forward to report.

Bai Jie hummed in agreement, concealing her panic.

Just then, a handsome young man dressed in a brocade robe, with a hint of arrogance between his brows, walked over, fanning himself with a folding fan.

This person is Ji Kun, the eldest disciple of the Hall of Affairs.

His gaze was intensely fixed on Bai Jie, especially lingering on her legs for a moment, his eyes revealing undisguised admiration and possessiveness.

"Junior Sister Bai, the location of this mission is near the Black Wind Mountains, where powerful demonic beasts occasionally appear, making it quite dangerous."

Ji Kun flashed what he thought was a charming smile. "Would you like me to accompany you, so I can look after you?"

"Thank you for your kindness, Senior Brother Ji. It's just eliminating low-level monsters that attacked the village. There's no need to trouble you. I can handle it myself."

Bai Jie frowned almost imperceptibly, her tone distant and polite.

She didn't glance at Ji Kun again, turned around and shouted, "Let's go!"

The disciples transformed into streaks of light and sped away from the mountain gate.

Ji Kun stood there, watching Bai Jie's graceful and charming figure disappear into the distance. His eyes narrowed slightly, and a determined smile appeared on his lips.

"Tsk tsk... Junior sister seems more mature and alluring than usual."

He sneered, fanning himself with his folding fan. Such a stunning beauty should belong to him, Ji Kun, as his woman.

Why pretend to be so high and mighty?

Sooner or later, I'll make her lie obediently beside me!

What he thinks about, what he can shoulder, may not necessarily be responsibility.

It could also be some disobedient beauty.

If the soft approach doesn't work, then we'll have to use the hard one!

Besides, women always respond better to a firm stance than a gentle one!

Ji Kun had already gone through the complete plan in his mind. First, he would go to Danfeng.

"Useless trash, it's your honor to be able to make some contribution for me before you're expelled from the sect."

Ji Kun sneered, put away his folding fan, and turned to walk in another direction.
