"Vine Saint!"Chase was stunned to hear that.A Vine Saint existed in this world?While he was pondering this, the green light gathered in front of Chase and condensed into the figure of an old man. Chase felt a chill when he noticed the similarity this place had with the Dragon Vein Secret Realm.Where was this? Could it be…?Chase did not even have time to defend himself against the sudden appearance of the man. He did not even have time to feel alarmed. All he could do was stare at the old man warily.Fortunately, the man did not seem to have any ill intentions toward Chase. Lucas did not trick him."Don’t be afraid, young friend. I can sense the aura of another young friend from you. Are you willing to tell me who led you here?" the old man asked in a friendly manner.There was no aura from the old man at all, and he could even be a hallucination, but Chase knew that the old man was real. This was only happening because his cultivation was completely gone."I was led here
"You got lucky, young man. When you were falling down the abyss and fell unconscious, Master Vine conducted a test on your character while you were passed out. If he had found you to be filled with ill intentions, you wouldn’t be here at all."It’s because you've passed the test that you’re able to appear within the Holy Vine. I had no idea that you had a good heart," Lucas explained slowly with slight jealousy and slight relief."Is this the internal location of the Vine Saint that you mentioned?" Chase looked around curiously."Yes. You can only come here if Master Vine approves of you. Hurry up and cultivate, young man. I’ll explain more to you once you’re out," Lucas insisted.Chase stopped chatting with Lucas and immediately sat on the ground cross-legged. He began to cultivate.He found that his cultivation had been restored during the process and guessed that Master Vine had lifted all restrictive mechanisms off him. The moment he channeled his skills, a flash of green ener
Chase leaped down the abyss once more at this thought. He prepared to get to the bottom once more.Just as Chase made the leap and was right above the abyss, the restrictive mechanisms were triggered and Chase’s body fell downward.Chase was suddenly transported away.He returned to the cliff before the abyss.What?Did something go wrong with the restrictive mechanisms?Chase leaped down once more, and he was in mid-air.A flash was seen.Chase returned to the cliff again.He finally understood that there was no issue with the restrictive mechanisms.Chase vanished and reappeared inside the Dragon Vein Secret Realm. He realized that the dragon image in the air seemed to have consolidated more.He did not think much about it as he appeared in Lucas’ space."What happened, Sir?" Chase asked.Lucas had to know something because he was looking at Chase strangely."You’re the first person whom Master Vine has tried to hide from, young man. That’s really something."Lucas sta
The scent of herbal medicine filled the air. Anyone present would be astounded by this. Chase did not require a pill furnace to refine the pills. He was refining them in the air just like that.Probably no one in the cultivating world had witnessed such a thing before. Fortunately for Chase, he was doing this in the pavilion, and no one was there to see this.Only the two men in Chase’s mind were able to sense this with their mental energies. However, they knew that this was a crucial moment and did not disturb him. They waited until the pills were formed.The medical herbs in the air vanished. Ten Element Nurturing Pills floated in the air in place of the herbs.Lucas could not help exclaiming."Where did you learn to refine pills this way, young man?""I learned it from my master, of course," Chase replied."Who exactly is your master?" Lucas asked once more."I have no idea what his name is, but I’ve always just called him ‘old man’," Chase replied honestly. He had spent mor
"This isn’t possible!""How is this happening?""What exactly is your cultivation level?"The group of Esoteric Medical Sect disciples began exclaiming in shock when they felt the powerful energy from Chase.Livingston did not dare make a move as he stood still where he was. He stared at Chase’s back in fear. He could sense the astonishing power from Chase even from his back."You’re here under the orders of Floyd Bale, aren’t you?" Chase looked at them and asked slowly."N-No, we’re not. We’re just here to get to know you because you’re new to the sect," Livingston stammered in reply when faced with Chase’s question."How dare you lie to me?!" Chase raised his voice slightly.Livingston got scared."You…"Are you trying to kill me while inside the sect? Our rules have stated that disciples aren't allowed to kill one another. Don’t do anything stupid. If anyone dies here, the Esoteric Medical Sect won’t accept you!"There was fear in his voice, but it did not stop him from t
"I heard that he’s a cultivator who is younger than us. I wonder if it’s true that he’s a Pill Refining Master.""It doesn’t matter if he is one. I bet you guys don't know that Floyd successfully refined a grade-six pill yesterday. He's now officially a Pill Refining Master in our sect.""What? Is that true? Floyd finally did it. I wonder what grade-six pill he managed to refine?""It’s the legendary Inedia Pill. Even though this pill isn’t really anything powerful, it’s still a grade-six pill. Floyd would be at least in the top three.""But I heard that we’re not the only ones participating in the Pill Refining Summit. Many of the elders are taking part as well. The elders have been around for years. There must be a Pill Refining Master among them.""Is that true? If they’re taking part as well, what chance do we have?""Haven’t you heard? A new sect master might be appointed via the Pill Refining Summit. The elders would want to vie for that position.""We shouldn’t be comment
Supreme Elder Phoenix, who was in child form, sat down slowly.Everyone standing in front of the tables got busy the moment he made his announcement."Look, Floyd is starting to refine his pill.""Elder Erwell is starting too.""Hey, look at Chase Collins. Why is he just standing around?"Most of the disciples watching the summit noticed that all Chase did was go blank while standing after Supreme Elder Phoenix announced the summit’s commencement. He was not refining any pills, and it ignited a discussion."He must've been scared silly because he has no experience in such a huge event.""You’re right. I heard that he was an independent cultivator before Elder Evans brought him back to the sect. It’s only normal that he feels frightened in an event like this."Many of the disciples agreed with this statement.It was not that Chase did not want to start refining pills. He watched as the people around him began to start fires while adding various spiritual plants into the pill fu
"Hahaha! Looks like it."While everyone was discussing this, Lundly had successfully refined a vat of pills and was presenting it to Supreme Elder Phoenix to verify."Good. Not bad at all. I didn’t know that you’ve become a Pill Refining Master. You’ve managed to refine grade-five Energy Reviving Pills!" Supreme Elder Phoenix exclaimed in surprise after verifying the pills."No wonder Floyd Bale was able to refine his pills successfully. It’s because he has a good master. Look at them, both master and disciple are now Pill Refining Masters. The sect will rely on them from now on."As the supreme elder, Supreme Elder Phoenix was happy to see this. It has been a long time since the sect had such encouraging news since the passing of their last sect master.Supreme Elder Phoenix’s words immediately attracted all the disciples to crowd around them."What? Did I hear this right? Elder Erwell managed to refine grade-five pills?""Is that true? That’s grade-five pills we're talking abo
