...

Alchemy is a time-consuming and labor-intensive task.

Especially when refining a complex elixir like the Primordial Elixir.

From the pre-processing of herbs to the use of ground fire, and finally refining into pills, it took the entire afternoon.

"These are thirty-three Primordial Elixirs. I haven't refined them for a long time, so the quality is a bit off, but it won't affect usage."

"Take one before cultivation each day, and this month's supply will be sufficient for you." The third elder handed over the elixirs and said.

"Thank you, Third Elder."

Lin Zheyu said respectfully.

The elixirs were round, yellow-brown, and only half the size of a glass bead.

A tiny pill placed in the palm of the hand exuded an extremely rich medicinal fragrance.

Lin Zheyu gently pinched it, very hard, almost like a stone, as the energies of various herbs had been smelted together under the ground fire.

"The Primordial Elixir is different from other elixirs; it is as hard as a crystal stone and requires Qi Blood to assist in absorption."

The third elder smiled and explained when he saw Lin Zheyu curiously playing with the Primordial Elixir.

Other elixirs are easily absorbed by martial artists after refining, which is the advantage over herbal soups.

But the Primordial Elixir is different.

This kind of elixir is not prepared for ordinary martial artists, but for those with a certain foundation, at least at the Bone Marrow Refining Realm.

"You don't have much to do when you go back, so stay in the main sect for a few more days."

"Old Five and I will work overtime to prepare a year's supply of Primordial Elixirs for you, to prevent any unforeseen events from affecting your future cultivation."

"Otherwise, I'd be a sinner."

The third elder smiled and said.

Having witnessed Lin Zheyu's extraordinary talent in the Sacred Inference Spirit Skill and his formidable spiritual soul comparable to a Transforming Force martial artist at the Bone Marrow Refining Realm level,

He regarded him as the next generation's leading disciple.

Such monstrous talent even astonished the third elder.

In his two hundred years of life, he had only seen a few talents comparable to Lin Zheyu.

Fewer than five fingers could count.

No, those talents weren't even as great as Lin Zheyu.

After all, Lin Zheyu was exceptionally admitted to the Infinite Sect.

Before that, the training, guidance, cultivation techniques, and resources he received were far inferior to those of the top sect disciples.

Even so, in less than two years after joining the Infinite Sect, this kid had rapidly risen as if on a rocket, defeating Liang En and ranking 24th on the Hidden Dragon List.

Becoming the top of the younger generation in the Infinite Sect!

This kind of talent is simply terrifying.

"Is the situation so severe now?"

Lin Zheyu couldn't help but ask.

He had felt the situation was a bit severe back in Wuling City.

In the sect, almost all experts above the Transforming Force level were busy with various tasks. Even Senior Sister Guo Wenzi, whom he often met, hadn't been seen for several months.

Only in the last few days, he encountered her as Senior Sister Wenzi finished her tasks.

"It's a bit troublesome."

"Although it doesn't threaten the Central Plains yet, it's steadily approaching."

"At that time, even an old bone like me probably won't be able to hide and enjoy leisure." The third elder laughed.

He looked at Lin Zheyu and laughed as he asked, "When you fought Liang En that day, I saw it. You didn't use your full strength, did you?"

"If going all out, do you think you have the confidence to make it to the top ten of the Hidden Dragon List?" The third elder asked curiously.

For a genius like Lin Zheyu, even though he was a grandmaster-level expert and the third elder of the Infinite Sect, he offered Lin Zheyu the proper respect.

Instead of directly testing Lin Zheyu's strength, he inquired verbally.

"Hmm..."

"The martial artists in the top ten of the Hidden Dragon List have extremely monstrous talents. I haven't fought them, so I'm not completely confident."

Lin Zheyu hesitated and replied ambiguously.

He felt that being ranked 24th was sufficient and didn't want to climb higher, as it would draw too much attention.

The higher the rank on the Hidden Dragon List, the better the auxiliary effect of the Hidden Dragon Order on martial artists, but Lin Zheyu primarily relied on Source Power for cultivation, and the Hidden Dragon Order only served as an additional enhancement.

Lin Zheyu felt that being within the top 30 was enough.

The Hidden Dragon List is mysterious, with rumors saying that reaching the top will bring immense opportunities.

Lin Zheyu wasn't very interested in that.

No opportunity could be greater than the Source Power he possessed.

Exposing himself to the eyes of powerful cultivation experts for an unknown opportunity is extremely unwise.

Lin Zheyu believed that the powerful cultivation experts of Great Wei must be in control behind the Hidden Dragon List.

"Haha..."

"Don't be too modest, where did that courage you showed earlier go?"

"Without mastering the Primordial Infinite True Skill, you already have such strong power. Once you cultivate it, your strength will rapidly improve."

"By then, even the top three of the Hidden Dragon List might not be out of reach!"

The third elder said with a smile.

He left out one thing—The Primordial Infinite True Skill is reputed as one of the most powerful true skills in the Guanghua Domain.

The founding ancestor of the Infinite Sect developed it, which made the Infinite Sect the undeniably strongest sect in the Guanghua Domain.

Unfortunately, after the ancestral founder, no disciple has ever fully mastered the Primordial Infinite True Skill.

"Yes."

"I will do my best." Lin Zheyu said.

He felt a bit helpless inside.

After ranking on the Hidden Dragon List, it became his burden.

Lin Zheyu has now received subsequent cultivation techniques.
