"Brother Gao, do you mean that you received guidance from Brother Chen and that's how you broke through in your leg techniques?" Xu Jie asked, speechless.

"Yes."

Gao Shan nodded and gave a wry smile, saying, "Actually, it's quite ironic. When I first started sparring with Brother Chen, he was deliberately holding back. I thought he was just not very good and that I probably wouldn't gain anything tonight."

As a result, Brother Chen's leg techniques became increasingly powerful, and I simply couldn't defend against them with my own. To be honest, if it weren't for our sparring last night, I don't know how long it would have taken me to perfect the Twelve-Road Tan Leg technique.

He himself felt fortunate when he said this.

Fortunately, he saw the news as soon as it was released last night; otherwise, he might have missed it altogether.

"I see. Brother Chen, you were probably testing your strength at the beginning, weren't you?"

"Yes, we need to proceed step by step. If he goes all out from the start, then there's no point in this sparring match."

Xu Jie and the others sighed, their eyes filled with deep envy.

"I never expected that Brother Chen is not only skilled in archery, but also in leg techniques. Even Brother Gao, who is proficient in leg techniques, has received guidance from him."

"Yes, no wonder he became a martial artist at such a young age. His talent is frighteningly high."

"It's a pity I practice martial arts; otherwise, I could have received guidance from Brother Chen, just like Brother Gao."

"Who isn't?"

Several people sighed in regret.

Just then, the sound of footsteps came from behind.

"Brother Chen!"

"Brother Chen, you've arrived!"

Some people even stood up excitedly from their seats.

"?"

Chen Fan was taken aback, then asked, somewhat amused and exasperated, "What's wrong?"

"Forehead……"

The group exchanged glances and then silently sat down again.

Based on Gao Shan's words, Chen Fan is likely proficient in leg techniques.

These people are all skilled in boxing and palm techniques; it's somewhat inappropriate for them to ask others for guidance.

"Young Master Chen,"

Gao Shan walked up and bowed.

"Brother Gao, what's going on?"

Chen Fan quickly helped him up, asking, "Why are you making such a grand gesture?"

Gao Shan waved his hand and said, "Brother Chen, you don't know this, but over the years, my leg techniques have always been at the Great Completion level, unable to reach the threshold of perfection. After our sparring last night, my leg techniques will be perfected when I go back."

"Is that so? That would be perfect."

Chen Fan smiled.

Actually, he wouldn't mind giving the other person a few pointers.

However, he only learned the Twelve-Road Tan Leg style after the other person left.

"Yes, Brother Chen, I don't know how to repay your kindness. If Brother Chen ever needs my help again, I will do my utmost!"

"Brother Gao, you're too kind."

Chen Fan waved his hand and looked at the others.

He vaguely understood why Xu Jie and the others were so excited to see him.

Since that's the case, he won't stand on ceremony.

"Gentlemen, is there anyone here who is proficient in fist and palm techniques?"

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone, including Gao Shan, was startled and stared at Chen Fan in astonishment.

What does that mean?

Brother Chen Fan, besides leg techniques, are you also proficient in fist and palm techniques?

"Young Brother Chen, I know palm techniques."

Tu Yue was the first to react and raised her hand.

"I also practice palm techniques!"

"I practice boxing."

"I also practice boxing."

The remaining people also chimed in eagerly.

"Okay, shall we have a sparring session afterwards?"

Chen Fan asked with a smile.

It will take at least half a day for the medicinal herbs to arrive.

Take advantage of this time to improve your basic fist techniques; it would also be good to upgrade your basic palm techniques.

The group was flattered and nodded repeatedly, like chickens pecking at rice, feeling extremely grateful.

Brother Chen, ostensibly there to exchange ideas, was actually giving them pointers.

A day passed quickly.

Xu Jie and the others all looked completely convinced and had benefited greatly from the experience.

At the beginning, it was indeed as Gao Shan said.

Chen Fan's basic martial arts skills are somewhat impressive, but not too bad.

But later on, even with their mastery of fist and palm techniques, they couldn't withstand the onslaught.

Of course, Chen Fan gained even more.

In one day, he raised both his basic fist and palm techniques to around level 25.

If you try to improve further, you'll encounter the same problem as with the basic leg techniques: the progress is too slow, taking several hours to advance one level.

If you want to continue to improve,

Either continue spending time, from a few hours, to a day, and then to several days.

Either find a formidable opponent,

Chen Fan decided to choose the second option. Once he passed the assessment, he would seek out martial artists in the Meridian Refining Realm within the association to spar, and even martial artists in the True Essence Realm!

After saying goodbye to the others, Chen Fan went to the front desk and picked up two packages.

They each carried one in one hand and returned to the lounge.

First, they disassembled the part containing the bow.

It was about the same size as the previous bow, but heavier, with thicker bow arms and a bowstring that was almost as thick as two fingers.

He then took out an arrow, a little over two meters long, almost as thick as an adult's forearm, and weighed it in his hand; it was close to ten pounds.

"Perhaps we don't need to use true energy. If this kind of arrow can hit the vital point of an elite-level ferocious beast, it should be able to kill it in one hit."

Chen Fan muttered to himself.

As for the range, we'll have to try it out to find out.

After all, a bow with a draw weight of 200 jin has a maximum range of 500 to 600 meters.

A bow with a draw weight of 10,000 jin (approximately 5,000 kg) has a maximum range of only 1,500 meters.

Using the tension multiplier to estimate the range is inaccurate, but the power is decent.

"Next is..."

Chen Fan put the bow and arrows back in place and opened another package.

Inside, different medicinal herbs were neatly arranged and labeled with their quantities; there were exactly 125 portions, no more, no less.

He brought the medicinal herbs to the alchemy room.

The room was spacious, with lab benches around it and various cups and utensils on display.

In the middle is a furnace taller than a person, whose temperature and time can be controlled by electronic buttons.

Having machines can certainly save a lot of trouble, but that doesn't mean you can rest easy once you have them.

All the preliminary preparations must be carried out by the alchemist, and if anything unexpected happens along the way, the alchemist must also be responsible for resolving it.

Chen Fan separated the thirteen kinds of medicinal materials he would use and measured them one by one with a balance.

Although the medicinal materials used to refine the top-grade Qi and Blood Pill are the same as those used to refine the high-grade Qi and Blood Pill, the proportions are subtly different.

Moreover, the subsequent refining steps and the temperature of the heat are slightly different.

As the saying goes, a small difference can lead to a huge error, not to mention the consequences of many small differences piling up.

After dividing the herbs into 125 portions, Chen Fan began processing them. The process was tedious and lengthy, taking more than three hours before he finished the preparations and began the formal alchemy process.

It takes nearly fifteen minutes to prepare a batch of pills, during which the heat must be constantly adjusted.

When a crisp sound came from the alchemy furnace, Chen Fan knew that the pill was complete.

He first turned off the instrument, and then reached out to open the furnace lid.

The moment it was opened, an extremely rich aroma of medicinal pills wafted out, quickly filling the entire alchemy room.

Just smelling it makes your blood boil.

Chen Fan took out the batch of pills and counted them.

There are a total of six high-grade Qi and Blood Pills and four top-grade Qi and Blood Pills.

Yes, statistically speaking, there should be a maximum of three top-grade Qi and Blood Pills, but this time, there was one more than expected.

"I guess I just had a stroke of good luck."

Chen Fan smiled, picked up a top-grade pill, and popped it into his mouth.

Then there's the second one.

The third one.

In less than half a minute, he had consumed all ten Qi and Blood Pills on the spot.

Potential points instantly surged to nearly 40.

"So-so, enough for one pulse breakthrough."

Chen Fan glanced at it.

It's a bit small, but it's a good deal.

After all, the cost of these ten coins is only 2 yuan, not counting electricity costs.

If you want to buy it, the association only has the top-grade Qi and Blood Pill, which costs 66 contribution points.

Of course, everything has its advantages and disadvantages; while cost savings are possible, time cannot be saved.

Based on a refining time of 15 minutes per batch of pills...

124 copies is 1860 minutes, or 30 hours!

Chen Fan took a deep breath. There was nothing more to say; he just had to get to work.

A quarter of an hour,

Half an hour

One hour,

More than ten hours have passed.

"Strange, why didn't I see Brother Chen this morning?"

Xu Jie, holding his breakfast, glanced around.

"They'll be here soon, right?"

Gao Shan chuckled.

"Yes, it'll be ready in a bit."

Tu Yue smiled.

She had a discussion with Chen Fan yesterday and gained a lot of inspiration.

Of course, it can't compare to the progress made on a mountain; it all depends on individual effort.

However, after waiting for a long time, Chen Fan did not appear in the restaurant.

"Strange, is Brother Chen still not awake?"

Several people looked at each other.

"I'll ask in the group."

As Xu Jie spoke, he took out his phone and asked a question in the branch group, but no one replied.

"I guess you've been too tired these past few days?"

Tu Yue guessed, "He hunted so many high-level ferocious beasts by himself the day before yesterday, and then he sparred with so many of us by himself yesterday. It's normal for him to be tired. Let's go train on our own first."

"Too."

The others nodded.

Although I'm a little disappointed, I estimate I'll see him around noon.

However, noon arrived before they knew it, and they still hadn't seen Chen Fan.

"What's going on? Brother Chen still hasn't woken up? It's already noon!"

Xu Jie couldn't help but say.

"That can't be right, can it? Could they be training in the training room?"

"That doesn't seem right. I saw that all ten training room doors were open."

"Could it be that they went out?" Zhao Xuewen suddenly asked.

Upon hearing this, the expressions of the others instantly changed.

The chairman specifically instructed them the day before yesterday to stay at the base for the next few days, and they knew exactly what it was about.

Chen Fan killed many people from the trading company, and they will definitely seek revenge.

If Chen Fan went out at this time...

"Why don't we ask the president?"

Tu Yue said worriedly, "If Chen Fan really goes out, the consequences will be unimaginable."

"Yes, ask the president."

Xu Jie made the call directly.

"Huh? You mean Chen Fan might have gone out?"

Upon hearing this, Sun Wei was both amused and exasperated. "No, he's been staying in the base the whole time; he hasn't gone out."

"I didn't go out."

The group breathed a sigh of relief.

"President, why haven't we seen him all day? Is he still resting in his room?"

"I'm not sure, but he should be refining pills in the alchemy room right now, right?"

Sun Wei guessed.

Chen Fan found him last night and took the key, but hasn't returned it yet; it's probably still in the alchemy room.

That's how alchemy is. In the past, which of those people didn't work day and night, neglecting to eat and sleep?

"Alchemy?!"

Upon hearing this, their minds went blank, and they were almost dumbfounded.
