Primordial Qi

Chapter 108 Dark Horse List

Gu Qingxue was still sleeping, and it would take some time for her to absorb these soul powers. Gu Chenyu could not move freely, so he could only continue to refine the elixir and wait for her to wake up.

A month passed, and Gu Chenyu had almost finished refining the materials. The stone chamber was filled with bottles and jars, which contained many third-grade medicinal pills. There was also a small hill of ash, which was all the residue after refining the pills.

His legs felt loosened and Gu Chenyu opened his eyes, only to find that he had lost feeling in his legs. If nothing unexpected happened, something unexpected must have happened. Just as he was about to get up, he felt as if some of his meridians in his body were stretched.

The pain made Gu Chenyu cry. He touched Gu Qingxue, who was sleepy and had just woken up. She had obviously recovered a lot after a month of sleep.

"My soul? How come it has become so condensed?" Gu Qingxue was a little surprised. When she woke up, she found that her soul had become much stronger. She didn't have to worry about the soul problem in the short term.

"The Fang Yixian in my body has passed her soul power to you, and is still sleeping now." Gu Chenyu replied.

"Fang Yixian? Who is that?" Gu Qingxue showed a puzzled expression.

"The soul in my body in the ancient city." Gu Chenyu reminded that the two women had no memory of each other.

"Oh, I remember now. When did you become so close to her? She was even willing to give up her own soul power." Gu Qingxue asked with narrowed eyes, a hint of murderous intent appearing.

Gu Chenyu only felt a chill on his back. Gu Qingxue would reveal a murderous aura whenever she talked about the opposite sex. At this moment, her spirit was much stronger. An invisible pressure made Gu Chenyu a little breathless, so he had to beg for mercy in a hurry.

"It's not a big deal. She and I are innocent." Gu Chenyu said helplessly. Gu Qingxue turned her head away and did not show anything unusual, as if the murderous intent just now was nothing.

"I don't object to you being with anyone, but you have to let me check. She wanted to take over your body at the beginning." Gu Qingxue said nonchalantly. There was a bitter taste in her mouth when she spoke, and she didn't know why.

"Hasn't Tongtianjing reached a cooperation agreement with her? I am safe now. Besides, I have the Soul-Extinguishing Needle, so I am not in danger."

"Hmph, remember what I said, you have to keep a close eye on those weird cultivators. Forget about them as they have given birth to children. Don't make me worry about them every day." Gu Qingxue said in a relaxed tone and left slowly.

Gu Chenyu struggled to get up. His legs were numb after not moving for a month. He felt a little disappointed. He thought Gu Qingxue liked him, but now it seemed that she was just worried that he would not choose a good Taoist partner.

Alas, I don’t know how many causes and effects are involved in human love. Well, I’d better just focus on making the elixir.

Gu Chenyu didn't know what was going on. He started making mistakes and the furnace exploded.

After exploding several third-level alchemy furnaces in succession, Gu Chenyu left the stone chamber in a state of frustration. He took the jade pendant and the residue with him, and then flew away from Wanqiu Peak.

Flying aimlessly all the way, Gu Chenyu didn't know when he arrived at Tianyun City. It was amazing that his speed was so fast after his cultivation reached the Venerable Realm.

"Now that you're here, go find Li Min'er. We haven't seen each other for over a year."

After searching for a long time in the storage bag, Gu Chenyu finally found a sound transmission jade pendant, which was specially used to transmit sound to Li Miner. There were many messages in the sound transmission jade pendant, including Li Miner's invitation and her concerns, but Gu Chenyu never paid attention to these messages. After a year of seclusion, he had forgotten about the sound transmission jade pendant.

Type a paragraph of text to invite her out for a chat, but there was no immediate response. Gu Chenyu came to a random restaurant to drink alone. Gu Chenyu was not interested in the flesh and blood of these monsters. They were too low-level and useless to eat, so he ordered a few jars of fine wine and drank alone.

The sound-transmitting jade pendant vibrated, and Li Qiner's joyful voice was heard, asking where Gu Chenyu was at the moment.

After drinking two more jars of wine, a wealthy woman with a charming figure and wearing gold and silver jewelry came over. Li Qiner's skin became even whiter and tenderer. She had the temperament of a mature woman and the body of youth and vitality, which made people have wild thoughts.

Gu Chenyu didn't notice her and just drank alone. He felt lonely for some reason, perhaps because Gu Qingxue didn't have any thoughts about him in that way.

But he soon felt relieved. A familiar breath approached, and a smile appeared on Gu Chenyu's face, sweeping away his previous decadence.

"You're here." Gu Chenyu said with a smile.

Li Fen'er's eyes lit up with surprise. He hadn't seen Gu Chenyu for a long time. He came only after all the elixirs were sold out. However, it was normal for him to practice in seclusion for a year or two, so Li Fen'er was not too worried.

"What realm are you in now? I can't even see through you." Li Qiner said. She has now reached the Gathering Spirit Realm. With the resources for cultivation, it is normal for her to break through to this realm.

"The realm of Venerable." Gu Chenyu answered calmly, as if he was talking about something insignificant.

"So fast? Your realm is advancing too quickly." There was some surprise in Li Qiner's eyes. In just one and a half years, his strength broke through to the Venerable Realm. Isn't this more outrageous than those geniuses?

"It's just a matter of piling up resources. Li Yue'e should be able to form a golden elixir and become a Grandmaster cultivator in no time." Gu Chenyu said.

"Yue'er is good, and her cultivation progress is really fast." Li Yan'er said happily. She had also received letters from Li Yue'e, which made her feel relieved.

"Sir, these are the spiritual stones I got from selling the elixirs. Please take a look."

Li Miner took out a storage bag with a lot of spirit stones in it. Gu Chenyu didn't bother to count them. He didn't remember how many times he had refined the spirit pills. He also took out a storage bag and handed it to Li Miner. There were more than 300 bottles of Gathering Spirit Pills and 100 bottles of each of the other three kinds of pills.

Li Qiner covered her mouth in surprise, and lamented that there were so many pills in it that one person's efficiency was comparable to that of several alchemists.

"How did you make so many pills?"

"Well... not eating or drinking for a month should be enough." Gu Chenyu held his forehead and rubbed his temples vigorously. He had not rested for a month, and the light of his soul was extremely excited at this moment.

"what?"

Li Qiner covered her mouth, thinking it was a gift, but unexpectedly it was the result of persistence and hard work.

After chatting with Li Qiner for a while, Gu Chenyu went back to drinking alone, but this time he went to a different place, drinking on the rooftop of a restaurant where he could take in many beautiful views.

A slender little hand snatched Gu Chenyu's wine glass and drank it all in one gulp. She had noticed that something was wrong with this guy when Gu Chenyu was still feeling depressed. She followed him all the way and only then did he reveal his true face, drinking with a bitter face.

"Li Min'er? Why are you back again?"

"Well, since you don't tell me and I don't ask, how about we just drink?" Li Qiner said with a smile, her two dimples looked very charming at the moment.

"it is good."

After drinking a glass together, the wine suddenly tasted much better. Gu Chenyu was no longer depressed and started to drink and chat happily.

"I was able to fight a hundred people alone in the Qingming Secret Realm. If it weren't for the intervention of the Tianren Patriarch, those disciples would never have been my match."

Gu Chenyu was a little drunk, and he started bragging as soon as he closed his eyes. These wines were not open to ordinary cultivators, and they were only sold to those who were at the Venerable Realm like Gu Chenyu. The old wine, which was based on spiritual liquid and had been buried in the soil for hundreds of years, naturally tasted extraordinary. His face had already started to turn red, and he was obviously drunk.

"I am alone, so how can I be happy when I gain something, and how sad when I lose something." Gu Chenyu felt a little sad, and raised the jar of wine and shouted to the bright moon.

Li Qi'er watched quietly. This high-spirited young man had an innate sense of loneliness, and his words at this moment sounded as if he had been heartbroken.

"If you're feeling down, take a walk with me."

Li Qiner walked up to his side and whispered softly. Gu Chenyu didn't think much about it. After paying the bill, he walked with her on the streets of Tianyun City.

Gu Chenyu was obviously drunk and was staggering when he walked. He came to his senses and used his spiritual power to force the alcohol out of his body. His face immediately turned red and white mist rose from his head.

"You finally get drunk, why do you force yourself to wake up again?" Li Qiner was a little disappointed and wanted to talk to him more.

"No, it's getting late. I should leave." Gu Chenyu said, and without paying attention to Li Qiner's attempts to keep him, he instantly walked out of the city and flew away.

Li Qiner couldn't help feeling a little disappointed. She admired this young man very much. His cultivation progressed rapidly and his alchemy skills were not bad either. If he could be promoted to a celestial pharmacist, that is, a third to sixth rank alchemist, his existence would be a great help to her.

.........

At the gate of Qingming Sect, many disciples were still discussing the latest scoreboard. The first place was Xiao Tian. His strength had improved at an amazing speed. The sect master even accepted him as his direct disciple, which made people very enviable.

The scoreboard, the newcomer list, the dark horse list, these strange lists were released, and Gu Chenyu's name was listed first on the dark horse list.

The only male disciple of Wanqiu Peak, with the cultivation level of the Venerable Realm. His battle record and strength are unknown. Apart from mentioning his cultivation level, there is no other information.

Gu Chenyu was still a little drunk. He walked to the sect entrance and walked inside in a daze.

Someone recognized him. He liked to wear blue and white clothes, had black hair, brown eyes, a delicate face and a thin figure, and two bells in his hair. It was obvious at first glance that he was pretentious.

Many people were discussing him. He performed mediocrely in the martial arts competition, but afterwards he broke through to the Venerable Realm in one fell swoop, making him the one with the highest achievement among them, bar none.
