Novel Bin Chapter 15
Chapter 15
The golden light from the pill furnace did not last for long.
A moment later, as the golden light dissipated, everything returned to normal.
Lu Yuan and Bai Dafei were still staring at the pill furnace in confusion.
It was obvious that they didn’t know what had happened.
However, Lu Yuan quickly came back to his senses and used Item Manipulation to retrieve the ten pills from the furnace.
Among these pills, there was one that was obviously different from the others.
Not only was the surface of the pill smoother, but it glowed. One look and one could tell that it was no ordinary item.
Filled with curiosity, Lu Yuan looked at the description of the pill.
[Elementary Cultivation pill (perfect)]
[Effect: After consumption, it can greatly increase the user’s spiritual energy absorption speed, with a small probability of improving the user’s spiritual root quality.]
Good God, a golden legend!
Lu Yuan had never thought that his ordinary pill refinement would produce such a treasure.
This was the first time he had seen the word “perfect” describing an elementary cultivation pill that he had refined.
Other than the change in its name, the effects of this perfect elementary cultivation pill were also very exaggerated.
The other elementary cultivation pills could only increase the speed of the user’s spiritual energy absorption.
In contrast, the perfect elementary cultivation pill had the word “greatly”.
And this wasn’t even the most exaggerated part. The most exaggerated part was that the perfect Elementary cultivation pill could actually slightly improve the aptitude of the user’s spiritual root.
This was the first time Lu Yuan had heard of a pill that could improve the spiritual root aptitude of the user.
He couldn’t help but wonder if such an awesome cultivation pill had really been refined by a little trash like him…
Bai Dafei, who was standing at the side, had also regained his senses. He said in a complicated tone, “Junior Brother Lu, did you always create such a huge commotion when you were refining pills?”
Hearing Bai Dafei’s words, Lu Yuan snapped back to reality.
He put the perfect elementary cultivation pill into his storage bag and replied, “Senior brother, you’ve misunderstood. This is the first time I’ve encountered such a situation.”
Lu Yuan’s discreet actions were all seen by Bai Dafei, but he didn’t think too much about it.
Nowadays, who didn’t have some secrets?
The most important reason why Bai Dafei was able to establish a good reputation in the Qingyun Sect was that he would never pry into other people’s secrets.
After all, only by controlling one’s mouth could one make others let down their guard and build a good relationship with others.
Hence, Bai Dafei pretended not to notice Lu Yuan’s actions and simply smiled, “Junior Brother Lu, I naturally believe in your words. In my opinion, you don’t need to continue with the next assessment. Junior Brother, your pill refinement technique just now clearly shows that you’ve already mastered the technique of refining the elementary cultivation pill. Therefore, the following assessment will naturally be meaningless. Junior Brother, you’ve passed this assessment!”
Since even Bai Dafei, the senior in charge of the assessment, had said so, Lu Yuan would naturally not say anything more.
Soon, Bai Dafei brought Lu Yuan to register as an outer sect disciple of the Pharmacist Valley.
These few words were not to be underestimated. Lu Yuan had merely been an outer sect disciple of the Qi Cultivation Valley. With this status, he would only receive ten low-grade spiritual stones and five elementary cultivation pills every month.
In contrast, after becoming an outer sect disciple of Pharmacist Valley, not only could Lu Yuan receive 20 low-grade spiritual stones every month, but even the number of elementary cultivation pills he would get had increased to ten, which was a solid double.
Although Lu Yuan already had the qualifications to refine the elementary cultivation pill on his own, no one would complain about getting something for free.
Free things might not be the best, but they were definitely the ones that felt the best to get!
The registration process for the Pharmacist Valley’s outer sect disciples wasn’t long.
In addition, he had Bai Dafei, the “good guy”, to lead the way.
In less than the time it took for an incense stick to burn, Lu Yuan received his outer sect disciple uniform.
After everything was settled, Bai Dafei called out to Lu Yuan, who was about to leave.
“Junior Brother Lu, please wait!”
Lu Yuan stopped and looked at Bai Dafei in confusion.
Seeing Lu Yuan’s puzzled expression, Bai Dafei smiled and said, “Junior Brother Lu, I saw that you seemed to have been very interested in that threaded pill furnace just now. It just so happens that your senior brother, I, have an idle threaded pill furnace in my hands. I’ll give it to you as a gift for our first meeting.”
With that, Bai Dafei did not wait for Lu Yuan’s rejection and immediately stuffed a storage bag into the latter’s hands.
“Senior brother, how can I accept this?”
Although Lu Yuan was saying that, he was already holding the storage bag tight. His actions were more honest than his words.
Seeing this, Bai Dafei’s chubby, round face smiled even more kindly.
“Junior Brother Lu, you don’t have to think too much about it. I can see that you’re no ordinary person. You’ll soar to the sky one day. I’m just trying to build a good relationship with you in advance. I hope that if I run into any trouble in the future, you can help me out.”
Although Lu Yuan knew that Bai Dafei’s motive for giving him the threaded pill furnace wasn’t simple, he had to admit that he really couldn’t withstand such temptation.
This was especially so for such a verbal agreement that lacked binding power. It all depended on whether the other party was willing to keep the promise.
From this, it could be seen that Bai Dafei was really good at socializing.
Whether it was his enthusiasm when he first met Lu Yuan or his unhesitating decision to invest in him in advance, it was enough to show that Bai Dafei was a person with a high EQ.
After receiving such a gift, it was naturally impossible for Lu Yuan to not express his thanks.
“Don’t worry, Senior Brother Bai. In the future, as long as it’s within my power, I’ll do my best.”
“Well said, well said. In the future, you and I will be fellow apprentices. We should see each other more often!”
“Then I hope you won’t find me annoying when the time comes.”
“Hahaha! Junior Brother Lu, you’re such a sweet talker. If I didn’t have a mission to complete, I’d definitely have a few more drinks with you today!”
As if recalling something, Bai Dafei looked left and right. After making sure that there was no one else around, he lowered his voice and said, ” Junior Brother Lu, although what I’m going to say next is a little out of line, I can’t help but remind you. Remember not to show your special pill refinement technique to others. Although our sect strictly prohibits disciples from killing each other, people are alive while the rules are dead. Once someone with ill intentions has their eyes on you, junior brother, you’ll inevitably be in trouble.”
“Junior brother, when you refine pills in the future, it’s best for you to go to a special pill refinement room. Although it will cost you some spiritual stones, it’s safer. It’s just that you’re to my liking, junior brother. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have said all this. Of course, it’s up to you. That’s all I can say. As for today’s matter, I’m a bit undisciplined, so I dozed off while you were refining the pills, and I don’t remember a thing.”
With that, Bai Dafei patted Lu Yuan’s shoulder and left with a smile.
Lu Yuan looked at Bai Dafei’s back, his heart filled with complicated emotions.
Indeed, people with great luck were not simple.
Another person with great luck, Meng Ruyan was a spy in the sect. Generally, people with such a setting were definitely extras with a certain amount of screen time.
In addition, she was a female cultivator, so her role would probably be even more important. Her future was promising.
Chen Yan, who also had great luck, didn’t look like a simple guy. Although he had not experienced the cliché process of breaking off an engagement, seeing his fiancée with another man was no different from breaking off the engagement.
With such an encounter, Chen Yan’s heart would definitely be filled with anger. He might even be thinking something like “fortune knocks once at every man’s door” and he would prove to everyone else how great he was.
Not to mention that Chen Yan also had a luck talent, so his cultivation would definitely improve at a lightning speed.
If after something like three years, Chen Yan came back to prove him and Meng Ruyan wrong, the script would be perfect.
The last one was Bai Dafei, whom he had just befriended.
Don’t be fooled by Bai Dafei’s aloof and amiable personality. Such people usually had the most potential.
After all, regardless of whether it was the “undercover type” or the “engagement-breakoff type”, they were all remnants of the old era.
The really popular one now was the steady development type!
Bai Dafei’s style of doing things was very steady, exactly the same as Lu Yuan’s.
When he thought of this, Lu Yuan felt that he should really interact more with Senior Brother Bai in the future.
No matter how he looked at it, Bai Dafei was a big shot with a bright future. nove(l)bi(n.)com
After sighing with emotion, Lu Yuan listened to Bai Dafei’s advice and rented a single pill refinement room in the Pharmacist Valley.
The rent for the room was not expensive, only five low-grade spiritual stones a month.
After making sure that there was no one around, Lu Yuan took out the perfect elementary cultivation pill impatiently.
