Da Feng: From copying golden entries to becoming an immortal in the mortal world

"Junior Brother, you broke through so quickly?"

Song Qing didn't react for a moment, and secretly grumbled to himself:

Could it be that he was in a fake seclusion? This breakthrough was so smooth, it was as easy as drinking water.

He knew that Luo Chen would break through to the Alchemist realm quite quickly, but he really didn't expect it to be this fast!

I went in and stayed for a while, and then I broke through the barrier and came out.

"Senior Brother Song Qing, you truly deserve to be called a master of alchemy after years of immersion in the field. Your explanation has made many of my doubts instantly clear."

Luo Chen noticed the slight embarrassment in Song Qing's expression, and generously attributed half the credit to her.

Furthermore, his words were earnest and his gaze sincere:

"If it weren't for my senior brother's guidance, I would never have broken through so smoothly."

Upon hearing this, Song Qing's subtle imbalance vanished instantly, and she felt completely at ease.

He was thrilled!

Did you hear that?! Junior Brother's breakthrough was thanks to me!

I, Song Qingzhen, am a fucking genius!

Upon hearing this, Song Qing felt somewhat embarrassed and quickly waved his hand, saying:

"Junior brother, you're too kind. Your successful breakthrough has really nothing to do with me."

"Even if I were given another chance to break through to the sixth rank, I would never be able to do it so quickly."

After a brief exchange, Luo Chen began studying alchemy techniques.

The elemental light clusters in the world seemed to come alive, swimming around him and brimming with vitality.

At this moment, he was able to craft magical artifacts by hand.

However, compared to Teacher Jianzheng, the gap is still significant.

After all, Master Jianzheng is an extraordinary being who can forge divine weapons with his bare hands.

"Junior brother, you are now a true alchemist."

"If you're willing to join the alchemy department, I'm happy to be your deputy!"

Excitement gleamed in Song Qing's eyes, and her hands clenched into fists as if she could already see the glory of the future.

"In my opinion, your alchemical talent is far superior to your cultivation talent!"

"If we brothers join hands, it won't be long before our alchemical creations spread throughout the Great Feng Dynasty, and even the entire Nine Provinces!"

In Song Qing's mind, a grand blueprint had already been drawn up, and he imagined that his alchemical works could be as well-known and famous as his junior brother's divine rice.

Luo Chen noticed the fervor in Song Qing's eyes, a fervor that he himself lacked.

He knew that he was merely building upon the work of his predecessors, standing on the shoulders of giants.

Song Qing, however, was like a brave giant, fearlessly exploring the unknown realm of alchemy.

Luo Chen said sincerely, "Senior Brother Song Qing, you are the true alchemy genius. My ambition lies elsewhere; only you can carry forward the art of alchemy."

"If all alchemists were as passionate as my senior brother... given time, alchemy might very well be able to separate itself from the sorcerer system and become a unique tradition similar to craftsmanship."

"In this way, not only can the learning threshold be lowered, but it can also attract many up-and-coming talents who love alchemy to explore together."

"At that time, even those who are not sorcerers will be able to devote themselves to the study of alchemy."

Upon hearing these words, Song Qing seemed to have truly taken on the responsibility of inheriting and developing the field of alchemy, and the fervor in his eyes grew even stronger!

He sensed the tactful refusal in Luo Chen's words and understood that Luo Chen had his own firm aspirations, and that this matter could not be forced.

"Junior brother, you truly are my mentor!"

Song Qing was filled with emotion, his eyes brimming with admiration and gratitude:

"Although I have always wanted to promote alchemy, I never thought of making it independent from the sorcerer's training system."

"Why don't you, junior brother, come up with a name for this new lineage?"

After a moment's thought, Luo Chen conjured a charcoal pencil and a drawing in his hand and wrote two large characters.

--science!

Upon seeing this, Song Qing couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, "Science?"

Luo Chen nodded in confirmation, his expression serious and his tone steady: "That's right, it is the 'Ke' in 'Imperial Examination' and the 'Xue' in 'Scholar'."

"Science is the method of investigating things to acquire knowledge. It aims to thoroughly investigate the inherent laws of heaven and earth and all things, to understand their changes, to clarify their rules, and then to conduct in-depth research in a systematic and categorized manner."

"Specialized learning, in short, is science."

Seeing that Song Qing possessed considerable talent in this area, Luo Chen further painted a rosy picture of the future (pie in the sky, offering empty promises and platitudes!):

"From now on, Senior Brother Song Qing, you will be a scientist!"

"Just as physicians establish unique medical theories and pharmacists develop highly effective prescriptions, which are revered by later generations, this is the meaning of 'family' as a self-reliant school."

"Firstly, he is an expert in science, possessing extensive knowledge and profound understanding, achieving outstanding accomplishments, and becoming an authority in the field."

"Secondly, originality is the ability to forge a new path, establish one's own viewpoint, and form a unique system."

"Thirdly, be resolute in your commitment to science, dedicate your life to it, remain single-minded, and persevere without giving up."

"Fourthly, the community, which belongs to the scientific community, where we learn from and pass on knowledge with our peers, and jointly promote the cause of science."

Upon hearing this, Song Qing was taken aback, then murmured to himself, full of praise:

"I've long heard of Junior Brother's exceptional talent in Confucianism and Taoism, and the name you chose today is indeed extraordinary."

"So, does that mean I'll be a scientist someday?"

Luo Chen smiled gently, "That's right, and he'll be a great scientist!"

Song Qing instantly became as if he had been injected with chicken blood, and shouted:

"Then I, your elder brother, will certainly not disappoint you!"

"If I, Song Qing, am going to do something, I'll do it the greatest scientist ever, and I'll definitely push the field of alchemy to its zenith!"

Song Qing pondered to himself, such a great legacy should not be enjoyed by one person alone.

He couldn't wait to tell all his fellow disciples in the alchemy department about this grand plan!

Let's work together to create a brilliant future!

Before long, the entire alchemy department learned that Luo Chen had broken through to the sixth-grade alchemist level and had entrusted the important task of passing on the science to his senior brother Song Qing.

"What?"

"Even Senior Brother Luo Chen praised Senior Brother Song Qing's talent as extraordinary, far surpassing his own, which is why he entrusted the important task of promoting science to Senior Brother Song Qing!"

"Furthermore, Senior Brother Song Qing promised that the first batch of alchemists to join the scientific sect will all have the potential to become scientists in the future!"

As we all know, both "家" (jiā, meaning family) and "君" (jūn, meaning ruler) are extremely important honorifics. To some extent, "家" is even more revered than "君".

Luo Chen's face lit up with excitement when he saw the alchemists.

He couldn't help but sigh, "This era is truly wonderful!"

A big pie can ignite the fighting spirit of a research genius, making them work harder than oxen and horses!

If everyone works diligently towards a better future, what is there to worry about in achieving a happy and prosperous era for everyone!

……

The Star-Picking Tower and the Bagua Terrace.

"Teacher, just now, the Star-Picking Tower was flashing with golden light, and there were countless starlight points. What exactly happened?"

Chu Caiwei was trapped in the formation by the supervisor, and she was already reluctant to practice alchemy, so she couldn't calm her mind at all.

At this moment, her mind was filled with thoughts of what she should eat with Luo Chen that evening.

Upon hearing this, the supervisor stroked his beard slowly, a hint of weariness in his expression, and said leisurely:

"Caiwei... that strange phenomenon just now was caused by Xiaochen breaking through to the sixth-rank sorcerer."

Upon hearing this, Chu Caiwei's beautiful eyes widened instantly, her face filled with disbelief, and she blurted out:

"How is this possible? I've only been here a short time, and he's already broken through?"

The supervisor did not directly respond to her question, but instead began to sigh to himself:

"Xiao Chen's fate has changed many times, and even I, his teacher, cannot see how far his future will go."

"He's making progress, but what about you?"

"Although you have been childhood sweethearts, I fear that if this continues, you will be destined to be apart in the future."

Upon hearing this, Chu Caiwei's face turned deathly pale, as if the supervisor had revealed her most secret thoughts.

[Impossible! Impossible... My junior brother loves me the most, he won't leave me!]

[Master is a master of destiny; perhaps he saw something?]

The supervisor noticed that Chu Caiwei's eyes instantly reddened, even though he had experienced the vicissitudes of life and seen all kinds of people.

Faced with Chu Caiwei's tearful appearance, he could only sigh helplessly and murmur:

"The affairs of the world are always so unpredictable..."

"Life is not worth living..."
