Translator: 549690339
There’s such a place rich with Spirit Qi deep underground in the Crescent Valley?
Luo Chen was surprised, before realizing something.
However, he did not rush to explore it.
Instead, he first stepped outside, showing his face to Gu Caiyi and the others, signaling that he was fine.
He knew very well that if something were to happen to him, Mi Shuhua would undoubtedly come to check on him.
At that point, his exploration findings would unavoidably be exposed.
By evening, most of the Pill Hall cultivators had left. The elixirs refined today were also specially stored in the Pill Cultivation Room.
Luo Chen waved goodbye to Gu Caiyi, stating that he would be back late today as he wanted to try refining a Jade Marrow Pill.
Gu Caiyi had no objections.
Currently, the task of refining Jade Marrow Pills was entirely handled by Luo Chen.
The other medicine disciples and fire workers were only learning some of the techniques he had taught them.
After most of the Pill Hall cultivators had left and only a group of guards remained, Luo Chen returned to the stone house.
“Let’s see if the First Order Spirit Vein Tributary really exists down there!”
Removing the stone slab, Luo Chen descended into the underground cave.
He chose a mine passage that extended downwards, released a small puppet, and it followed behind him closely.
“Is it blocked?”
“This route is also impassable, let’s switch to another mine passage.”
“It seems like the direction is off.”
“It looks like I might have to resort to some measures!”
When he was blocked yet again at the end of a closed-up mine passage, Luo
Chen realized that the spot might not have been found by anyone yet.
Therefore, there was no direct mine passage leading to it.
If this were before, he would have to use a magic tool to create a path, slowly digging out a tunnel.
But now, he had another method at hand.
Mountain Breaking Palm!
Raging Spirit Power was channeled through his meridians and surged outwards.
With a palm strike from Luo Chen hitting the ground, there was a heavy thud.
A large area of rocks shattered. Luo Chen did not dodge, letting the shards hit him.
Then, they slid off under the Defense Light Shield of his Medium Grade Robe.
“It seems pretty deep!”
He sighed and continued hammering down with his palms.
Palm after palm, again and again!
Every once in a while, he would encounter some unmined Star Silver Mine. Luo Chen would use the Jade Sword Magic Tool, struggling to cut it off.
In this process, his proficiency in Mountain Breaking Palm constantly increased.
“It’s just a worldly martial skill after all. It’s usage of Spirit Power is rather crude.”
“But that’s okay too. It doesn’t consume so much Spirit Power.”
Luo Chen glanced at the Attribute Panel, satisfied as he watched the proficiency of the Mountain Breaking Palm steadily increase.
After about an hour, Luo Chen had to stop his actions.
“Damn, how deep is this!”
“I guess I can’t finish this today. I’ll continue tomorrow!”
If he continued to delay, it would be too late to go home.
Zhou Yuanli and Liu Qiang, his two bodyguards, were still waiting for him at the Crescent Valley.
Luo Chen did not continue, turning and leaving the narrow mine passage.
Before leaving, he used a large stone to block the mine passage.
“Luo Chen came looking for me at the Headquarters today?”
Having just finished his conversation with a new Foundation Establishment cultivator who had moved in, Mi Shuhua heard Mi Junping’s report.
He was puzzled.
“What does that boy want from me?”
Mi Junping did not like Luo Chen. He had gotten too many benefits from the gang.
He always seemed unsatisfied.
Compared to the benefits he received, the value he created for the Broken Mountain Gang and the Mi Family was still far from adequate.
“Heh, what else could it be? He definitely wants more benefits from you. That guy, he’s insatiable!”
Seeing his daughter’s reaction, Mi Shuhua couldn’t help but frown.
His daughter was still too petty.
Only concerned with short-term gains and losses, unable to see the long-term benefits.
Compared to the things they were giving him now, the value Luo Chen could bring in the future was unpredictable!
As for Mi Junping, she couldn’t control herself early in her life, became engaged to a cultivator and even had a child.
As a result, even though she had his full support, she would never be able to reach the Foundation Establishment Stage in this lifetime.
Mi Shuhua was forced to use the Foundation Establishment Pill, which was hard to come by, as a reward.
There was nobody in the second generation of the Mi Family!
Fortunately, among the children of the third generation, there were a few who were worth cultivating.
After contemplating, Mi Shuhua said: “Mi Li is back home, isn’t she? Call her over; I want to ask her something.”
Mi Junping didn’t look kindly upon her own daughter.
Becuase of that man and this daughter, her chance of reaching the Foundation Establishment Stage was hindered.
However, under her Foundation Establishment Stage father’s gaze, she had no choice but to go fetch Mi Li.
In a short while, Mi Shuhua learned most of what Luo Chen had done in the Pill Hall that day.
He promoted an old cultivator to be the head fire worker, an act of kindness?
The head worker had gone out with Luo Chen to ask questions about his realm.
It seemed that Luo Chen was experiencing confusion in his cultivation.
Ah, so that’s why he came to see me.
“This afternoon, Hall Master Luo successfully refined a batch of Jade Marrow Pills.” Mi Li spoke softly.
“He truly has a talent for alchemy. None of the second and third generation of my Mi Family can compare to him.”
Mi Shuhua sighed.
“It seems like there was some issue during the refining process; Hall Master
Luo was even bleeding from his eyes.”
Upon hearing this news, Mi Shuhua couldn’t sit still.
“What happened?”
His urgent, concerned look was not at all feigned.
Mi Li pursed her lips, feeling a hint of sadness in her heart.
Never once has my grandfather shown such concern for me..
