I Hide And Farm In The World Of Cultivation To Increase My Proficiency Chapter 8

Chapter 8

In the hall of the Pharmacy Valley, although Lu Yuan had succeeded in his first attempt at refining the elementary cultivation pill, he did not become arrogant because of this.

Instead, he began to seriously analyze his previous pill refining process to see if any areas could be improved.

…

This indeed allowed him to gain a lot.

[You’ve seriously reflected on your pill refinement process. Pill Refinement Technique proficiency +15]

[Pill Refinement Technique (level 1): 35/100]

After concluding, Lu Yuan felt that a huge part of why his pill refinement this time had been successful was thanks to luck.

If he hadn’t used his luck talent, Destined Lucky Star, to distribute a large amount of his luck to pill refinement, there was a high chance that he would fail this time.

100 points of luck would increase the success rate by 25%.

If this 25% was removed, it would be considered good if Lu Yuan’s batch of elementary cultivation pills could even produce one finished product.

That being said, luck was also a part of one’s strength and Lu Yuan was the kind of person who could control his luck!

After concluding his pill refinement process, Lu Yuan started his daily cultivation as he had no more medicinal herbs and his spiritual energy was a little exhausted.

…

Just as Lu Yuan was concentrating on his cultivation, the old man who had been standing behind him quietly left.

Not long after, the old man returned to the back of the Pill Hall.

There was a Foundation Establishment Stage official disciple of the Pharmacy Valley here. He was responsible for recording the progress of the pill-refining apprentices outside.

They would try their best to ensure fairness and justice and not miss out on any talents.

What was the most precious thing in the celestial cultivation world? Talents, of course!

It was also because Qingyun Sect had such a complete talent-nurturing system that placed great importance on the nurturing of talents that the sect had more pharmacists than other sects.

Just as the official disciple was recording the pill-refining information of the individual disciples, the old man came over and said, “Chen Yongan, show me the kid’s pill refinement records. I want to know when he started to learn pill refinement.”

Chen Yongan raised his head. When he saw the old man’s face, he hurriedly stood up and said respectfully, “Yes, Elder Han.”

Following that, Chen Yongan looked in the direction that Elder Han was pointing at and saw Lu Yuan cultivating with his eyes closed.

Chen Yongan wrote down the number of the pill furnace in front of Lu Yuan and began to search for his records on the roster.

Very quickly, Chen Yongan realized that Lu Yuan was the Pharmacist Valley’s newbie who was on his first day here.

“Elder Han, that disciple’s name is Lu Yuan. He was transferred from the outer sect today.”

“Today, huh…” Han Yuanshan stroked his beard and narrowed his eyes.

From his expression, it was obvious that he was interested in Lu Yuan.

To be able to successfully refine elementary cultivation pills on his first day here, this kid was quite interesting.

In fact, the reason why he had observed Lu Yuan’s pill refinement was that he realized that the latter seemed to have a very sharp intuition when it came to pill refinement.

He was often able to immediately correct any problems he encountered.

If not for the fact that Lu Yuan had made many low-level mistakes in the entire process of pill refinement, Han Yuanshan even suspected that the kid had experienced pill refinement since back in the mortal world.

Now that he knew that this was indeed Lu Yuan’s first day at pill refinement, Han Yuanshan was even more interested in the latter.

From his point of view, if there was anyone in the hall who could become a pharmacist in the end, Lu Yuan would definitely be the one with the most hope.

Not everyone had such a keen pill-refining intuition.

“From now on, give him ten more sets of medicinal herbs for the elementary cultivation pill every day. If he asks, just say that it’s a test for him.” Han Yuanshan turned around and said, “If he can successfully refine a Foundation Establishment Stage pill within a year, I’ll take him in as the Pharmacist Valley’s direct disciple.”

“Yes, sir.”

After the Core Formation Stage elder Han Yuanshan left, the official disciple looked at Lu Yuan, who was still cultivating, with envy and remembered his face in his heart.

To be valued so highly by a Core Formation Stage elder, Junior Brother Lu’s future was limitless!

…

In the hall of the Pharmacy Valley, Lu Yuan had no idea that he had already become someone with a “bright future” in someone else’s heart.

He looked at the already dark sky outside, and after a moment of hesitation, he gave up on the idea of going back.

He thought, “Go home? Can a place with that demoness be called home?”

That was a devil’s den that ate people whole!

He refused to go “home”. He would never go back no matter what!

It had to be said that Lu Yuan felt that he was now well-fledged and had the capital to fight against Meng Ruyan.

He believed that as long as he stayed in the Pharmacist Valley and relied on its special status in the Qingyun Sect, he would be fine.

Even if Meng Ruyan, the Foundation Establishment Stage demoness, wanted to find trouble with him, it would not be an easy task!

When an adult man didn’t want to go home after work, it meant that he had “matured”.

Lu Yuan felt that he was a mature man now.

Thus, in the following month, Lu Yuan simply stayed in the hall of the Pharmacy Valley.

Other than getting the occasional Inedia pill and other necessary resources, he never left the main hall. He was extremely hardworking.

Since the second day after he arrived at the Pharmacy Valley, the number of medicinal ingredient sets that Lu Yuan could have to refine the elementary cultivation pill had increased from ten to twenty.

He also found out that a Core Formation stage elder named Han Yuanshan had taken a fancy to his pill-refining talent. This made Lu Yuan very excited.

As long as he could meet Han Yuanshan’s requirements within a year, he would be able to become the latter’s direct disciple.

A direct disciple! Not just an ordinary official disciple!

If he could become a direct disciple, not only would he be able to obtain more cultivation resources, but his status would also surpass that demoness Meng Ruyan.

At that time, he would no longer have to worry about being sucked dry or killed by Meng Ruyan.

Under the threat of a “life and death crisis”, Lu Yuan started to live the regular life that an adult man should have.

In the morning, he would observe the other senior brothers’ pill refining. In the afternoon, he would refine the elementary cultivation pill by himself. At night, he would cultivate hard.

Time flew, and Lu Yuan spent his first month in this world in the Pharmacist Valley.

What was worth mentioning was that the Pharmacy Valley’s requirement for each apprentice was to provide 90 elementary cultivation pills every month, which meant that they had to at least make three pills a day.

As long as they could fulfill this basic requirement, the apprentices could freely deal with the extra elementary cultivation pills that they had refined.

They could exchange the pills for sect contribution points or use them for themselves. Anything was fine.

If they had any connections, they could even sell the extra pills to other disciples in private in exchange for cultivation resources.

Lu Yuan, who had the skill interface as well as the luck talent, Destined Lucky Star, could already make five elementary cultivation pills a day.

Occasionally, when he was lucky, he could even make six or seven pills.

Lu Yuan didn’t choose to sell these extra pills. Instead, he used them himself.

After all, his cultivation with his “balanced spiritual roots” was already harder than ordinary people.

When other people absorbed spiritual energy, 70% to 80% would be allocated to the main spiritual root.

But for Lu Yuan, the spiritual energy he absorbed would be evenly distributed among all five of his spiritual roots.

As such, his cultivation speed was much slower than the others.

Fortunately, he now had a large number of elementary cultivation pills to help him, so his cultivation speed was much faster.

With the help of the elementary cultivation pill, although the time he spent on cultivation this month was less than two-thirds compared to the previous months, in terms of the effects of his cultivation, this month’s cultivation was equivalent to two to three months of his previous cultivation.

If this continued, Lu Yuan felt that he had a high chance of reaching the Foundation Establishment Stage before the next sect assessment.

After handing over the elementary cultivation pills that fulfill the requirements for the month, Lu Yuan looked at his gains for the month.

[Qingyun Technique (level 3, Qi Cultivation chapter): 353/500]

[Swordsmanship (level 2): 100/200]

[Item Manipulation (level 4): 59/400]

[Fire Manipulation (level 6):120/600]

[Pill Refinement Technique (level 2): 15/200]

Other than his Swordsmanship, which he had not practiced much, the proficiency of all his other skills had made great progress compared to a month ago.

At this moment, Lu Yuan was filled with a sense of accomplishment.

He had really become stronger!

However, just as Lu Yuan was feeling proud of his success and was preparing to have a good night’s sleep to welcome a new month of study tomorrow, an alluring figure appeared at the entrance of Pharmacist Valley.

It was Lu Yuan’s nightmare, Senior Sister Meng Ruyan!

The purpose of her visit was very simple. She was preparing to “visit” her “partner” who had not returned home for a month.

She wanted to ask him why he was hiding from her, and who gave him the courage to do so!
