Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 134: Chapter 102: Carefree Wandering Finalization_2

”Moreover, it also gave me an achievement point.”

Thinking this way, it didn’t feel like a great loss after all.

Furthermore, the Carefree Wandering Finalization has increased the speed of his Wind Riding Technique by thirty percent.

Now his flying speed has thoroughly surpassed those Late Stage Qi Refinement Cultivators who are using Flying Magic Tools.

His small-range zigzagging movements were full of variations, truly giving him a sense of freedom and pleasure in roaming the void.

If the Wind Riding Technique was also finalized, the combination would probably possess even more remarkable power.

Not to mention, Luo Chen has almost maxed out his expertise in the skill of escaping.

On his way back, he ceased using the Carefree Wandering Technique, instead resorting to the Wind Riding Technique for flight.

Proficiency is gradually brushed up in such daily routines.

Soon he returned to Crescent Valley.

As soon as he landed, he was called out by Murong Qinglian.

”Here, this was sent by the Gang Leader. See if it fits you.”

Looking at the pure-white, fluffy coat in Qinglian’s hands, Luo Chen was somewhat surprised.

”Does the gang provide such clothing?”

As he spoke, Luo Chen put on the coat.

Murong Qinglian watched from the side, her eyes revealing a hint of astonishment.

What a handsome gentleman he is, charming and striking!

Perhaps due to his recent injury, his immersion in practicing techniques, and obsession with pill refinement, he seemed less worldly and more serene than ever.

Overall, he appeared like a prince or a notable disciple of the Great Sect.

”You suffered a hidden injury after your breakthrough, didn’t you? You can’t stand the cold, so the Gang Leader had this coat made of Demon Fox skin sent over.”

”Our region has a mild climate, and winter comes later than elsewhere. Once the heavy snow seals off the mountains, it can still be very cold.”

”With this coat made of the Demon Fox’s skin, you don’t have to constantly use you Spirit Power to maintain your body’s temperature.”

Hearing Murong Qinglian chatter on, Luo Chen felt warmed both physically and emotionally.

”The stitching is excellent! Unnoticeable unless you look closely. The material isn’t too shabby either. If an array could be inscribed, it doesn’t seem to fall short of a Lower Grade Robe.”

As Luo Chen evaluated, he also offered some praise to Mi Shuhua, who was away.

The old man is thoughtful!

Murong Qinglian smiled and said, ”The gang is planning to start a business with this idea, making use of any miscellaneous materials found during hunts, sewing them into coats. During the winter, it can generate some income in Spirit Stones.”

”Is that right?”

”Yes indeed. The Medicine Hall and the Beast Hall fought over this very business.”

Murong Qinglian glanced at the female cultivators in the valley and sighed, ”Most of the Medicine Hall cultivators are women. There aren’t as many herbs to collect in the winter, so we need to find something for them to do for income.”

”This coat you’re wearing was also made by the female cultivators in the Medicine Hall. It’s just that the Demon Fox skin was provided by the Gang Leader.”

Luo Chen was silent for a while.

He had also experienced the winter in The Great River District before. Those days were indeed tough.

When it was closed off by heavy snow, hunting in the mountains, gathering herbs or mining would all become inordinately difficult.

Many rogue cultivators simply couldn’t endure the winter, either choosing to stop their cultivation or moving to other, warmer markets to live.

How did he survive that winter, again?

The answer is... capitulation!

He endured each day by relying on the Fasting Pill refined by himself and didn’t dare to mention his cultivation.

Thinking back to those days, as Luo Chen felt the warmth from the coat, he cautiously spoke,

”Sister-in-law, fight for what you believe in. When the time comes, I’ll undoubtedly back you. I’ll also talk to Zeng Wen and Brother Wang Yuan.”

”Thank you so much! In the future, if you need this coat cleaned, you can give it to the female cultivators from the Medicine Hall.”

Murong Qinglian had a beaming smile on her face. That was the answer she was hoping to hear.

After engaging in a little more small talk, they decided to return to the manor at the end of the month to attend a birthday banquet. Then, Luo Chen hurried back to the Pill Hall.

It was this time of day when he would return to the Pill Hall to handle the afternoon’s pill manufacturing task.

The Jade Marrow Pill refinement was all assigned to the morning, while the afternoon was primarily to refine Allure Pills and a small quantity of Fasting Pills.

Regarding the pill formula and tricks for the former Allure Pill, he still had a grasp on it.

As for the latter, he had already taught it all.

There’s no need for him to handle such tedious tasks that don’t generate any profits at all.

Rather, he frees up quite a lot of spare time by excluding himself from these trifling matters.

”Mi Li, you’re responsible for the Large Pill Room today!”

”Tang Quan, you will handle the Small Pill Room!”

”Everyone else co-operates well, I want to see how much progress you’ve all made during this period!”

Following his command, all the young cultivators bustlingly got to work.

Luo Chen stood outside, his gaze fell on another abandoned Pill Room. He frowned.

”Leaving a Pill Room vacant is such a waste.”

”Not only does it limit my proficiency increase, but it also results in a decline in pill production, and those come with my dividends!”

”No, I have to get Mi Shuhua to buy a new Pill Furnace!”

Having not sheared the sheep [or taken advantage of a situation] for a long time, his heart started to feel restless as he put on his new clothes.

For a while, Luo Chen’s fingers were itching.

...

...

Life unfolds within small courtyards and the vast world alike.

The once serene and lonely northern city lane was filled with liveliness from the afternoon.

People were coming and going. From time to time, various items were moved inside.

Some residents managed to catch people going in and out and asked what was going on. They only received the news that someone’s birthday was happening.

They didn’t know who it was. Those guys from the Broken Mountain Gang didn’t specify either.
