Enduring humiliation for three years, seizing the elixir, the treasure, and the holy maiden.

To be fair, the price is really not cheap.

This is the amount of spirit stones that many inner disciples within the sect would have obtained in several months.

That's it!

Su Chen simply threw the spirit stones onto the table.

I chose the seventh alchemy room of the Jiazi year.

That is, the innermost part of Danfang.

The aroma of medicine wafted through the room.

It seems that many alchemists have refined pills here before.

Su Chen casually closed the door and took out several array flags from his storage bag.

Su Chen had no knowledge of formations; these were formation flags he had previously obtained from the inner disciples of the Luoyun Sect.

It is an isolation formation that can block a cultivator's spiritual sense from probing.

However, if someone were to actually break in, they probably wouldn't last more than a few quarters of an hour.

In fact, the reason why the Tai Xuan Sect is famous for its alchemy is largely due to its alchemy workshop.

That's the alchemy furnace here, all left behind by ancient cultivators.

The Tai Xuan Sect was willing to use these relics of ancient cultivators for its elders and disciples to refine pills.

In that case, the spirit stone wasn't entirely wronged.

Su Chen glanced at the alchemy furnace in front of him; it was indeed a treasure.

It has three legs and two ears, and although it is clearly made of meteorite, it is jet black.

Su Chen certainly didn't come here to refine pills.

I'm not an alchemist, and besides, in such a large alchemy workshop, I can't find many alchemical formulas that are useful to me.

He took out the jade bottle and pointed at it with his fingertip.

The bone inflammation directly entered the furnace.

Speaking of which...

Refining bone flames is not as easy as one might imagine.

This thing was originally refined by the demonic sect, and it carries a lot of malevolent energy.

The safest way to completely tame it is to find a stove that won't explode.

Then, he slowly suppressed the bone flame with his own spiritual power until it completely surrendered!

Only when this bone inflammation completely acknowledges its master can it be used for one's own purposes.

When ordinary cultivators refine pills, it is common for their furnaces to explode.

The main reason is drug interactions.

For example, fire-attribute spiritual plants are incompatible with water-attribute plants.

However, some elixirs happen to require this kind of refining method.

Two opposing spiritual energies repel each other, generating a large amount of spiritual pressure.

That's why the oven exploded.

Taming this bone flame is probably several times more dangerous than ordinary alchemy!

That's why Su Chen took the risk and decided to refine this flame here before leaving the Tai Xuan Sect.

...

"Have you found it yet?!"

At that moment, an elder from the Nine Heavens Sword Pavilion hurriedly asked a question.

"Reporting to the elder!"

"Senior Brother Lu said he was going to find Su Chen after he left this morning."

"After that, they disappeared without a trace."

"This disciple ordered a search of the entire Tai Xuan Sect, but we still couldn't find my senior brother's whereabouts."

At that moment, a disciple cupped his hands and said something.

Inside a side hall of the Tai Xuan Sect, several elders from the Nine Heavens Sword Pavilion remained silent.

These old guys were getting anxious.

Lu Feng is now a prodigy of the Nine Heavens Sword Pavilion.

Especially after winning the championship this time, all the elders in the sect have high hopes for Lu Feng.

In addition, Lu Feng does have some tricks up his sleeve.

They even decided to send Lu Feng to the position of a true disciple of the sect after returning to the sect.

But now the person is missing?

"There's no reason for this kid to disappear."

"The Tai Xuan Sect is waiting for Lu Feng to choose a day to enter the Spirit Pool for cultivation."

"At a time like this, people just die like that?"

At this moment, an elder of the Nine Heavens Sword Pavilion was holding a teacup in his hand.

"hehe!"

"Going missing is a minor matter!"

"Qingzhou has countless geniuses, and our sect is not lacking in Lu Feng alone."

"If we lose a disciple, we can just train another one."

"only..."

"The bone inflammation on Lu Feng's hand..."

Upon hearing this, the elders fell silent once again.

That's right!

The world of cultivation is just that cruel.

The life and death of a sect disciple is often not that important to these old guys.

But when it comes to fortuitous encounters, spiritual treasures, unusual flames, and elixirs...

These old guys are quite concerned.

The Bone Flame in Lu Feng's possession is a valuable item.

These elders knew perfectly well that if a Nascent Soul cultivator were to refine this flame...

From then on, he could even do whatever he wanted in Qingzhou.

I'm afraid there aren't many people who aren't afraid of this osteomyelitis.

If Lu Feng were to disappear without explanation, or even perish...

That thing will be gone.

It might even fall into the hands of other cultivators.

Thinking of this, the elders looked distressed.

And, just at this crucial moment, Lu Feng went missing.

It's possible that someone has their eye on that thing.

"Okay, okay!"

"My disciple has gone missing, yet you covet his strange fire!"

"At least my disciple has brought honor to the sect!"

The person speaking at this moment is none other than [someone else].

It was Li Yunhe, Lu Feng's master at the Nine Heavens Sword Pavilion.

"Hey Lao Li, are you actually taking your apprentice seriously?"

"Come on!"

"Don't pretend to have a deep master-disciple relationship."

"I'm afraid your disciple is really going to return."

"I'm afraid you were the first one to use soul-searching and spirit-refining techniques to steal your disciple's strange fire!"

At that moment, another elder sneered.

This left Li Yunhe speechless.

"I'm too lazy to play games with you!"

"The most important thing now is to find them!"

"Even if my disciple really dies, I need to know who killed him."

"At that time, getting this bone inflammation would be much easier..."

At that moment, Li Yunhe snorted coldly.

"Easy for you to say, they'll never appear, neither alive nor dead!"

"Where are we going to find it!"

The elder standing to the side spoke again.

Li Yunhe then stood up and paced back and forth in the room a few steps.

"Then we'll have to investigate further."

"I do have someone in mind."

"It is Su Chen, the true disciple of the Falling Cloud Sect!"

"This kid is my apprentice's mortal enemy. At this conference, Lu Feng even said in public that he would cripple him."

"This matter is probably inseparable from him."

"We might as well start the investigation from this person, but it's a bit troublesome. Our sect shouldn't get involved because of this person's identity."

"It seems we need to get an explanation from the Tai Xuan Sect and the Luo Yun Sect."

"Maybe it's him!"

At that moment, Li Yunhe stroked his beard and let out a cold snort.

"Ha ha ha ha..."

"joke!"

"That kid is also at the late Golden Core stage."

"But I have observed it."

"When I defeated that saintess, my swordsmanship was unique."

"But Lu Feng suffers from bone inflammation, and even Nascent Soul cultivators must avoid his sharp edge."

"If a fight really breaks out, I won't be able to defeat Lu Feng!"

Upon hearing this, the group exchanged glances.

"Don't underestimate that kid!"

"A few months ago, I personally witnessed that kid almost kill Lu Feng."

"Moreover, they are adept at concealing their true abilities, possessing a deep-seated cunning and ruthless decisiveness..."

"This is definitely not something a junior should do."

Li Yunhe said coldly.

...

"Boom!"

At this moment, the bone flames inside the alchemy furnace were violently raging and crashing around.

If it were any other alchemy furnace, it would probably have exploded long ago.

Su Chen felt as if all his spiritual energy was about to be depleted.

I really don't know how much effort Lu Feng put into refining this flame.

Six hours were about to pass.

Su Chen had no choice but to take the risk.

He directly activated the third sword intent of the Falling Clouds Piercing the Sun Sword Technique.

A surge of sword intent was poured into the furnace.

The osteitis gradually subsided.

"It really works!"

Su Chen's lips curled up slightly at that moment.

Suppressing the bone flame with sword intent did make it much more docile.

Now, the bone inflammation has been refined to seven or eight-tenths.

They can now be at Su Chen's beck and call.
