Chapter 124: Chapter 124: Repaying Kindness
"Young Master Feng, what you just said, is it true?"
Su Shisan asked, holding back his shock, "Can the Profound Soul Bodhi Pill really help a Fifth Grade Alchemist break through to the Sixth Grade?"
Gu Chenfeng chuckled softly, "The effectiveness of the Profound Soul Bodhi Pill is beyond your imagination."
"Breaking through to a Sixth Grade Alchemist?"
Su Xiangyang and the three elders also realized the significance, exchanging glances and seeing the astonishment in each other’s eyes.
"Is there really such a powerful Elixir?" Su Qianqian was full of disbelief.
If there truly is such an outrageous Sixth Grade Pill, wouldn’t the Cultivation Realm be full of Sixth Grade Alchemists?
Gu Chenfeng took out a Jade Scroll and smiled, "Patriarch Su, the Pill Formula and Refining Technique are recorded in the Jade Scroll; make sure to keep it safe."
"Wonderful! Many thanks to Young Master Feng!" Su Xiangyang quickly clasped his fists in gratitude, a bright smile on his face.
Gu Chenfeng reminded again, "Patriarch Su, the Pill Formula is extremely important and must not be leaked. Today’s events should not be spread to avoid bringing disaster to the Su Family."
"Rest assured, Young Master Feng, this matter will not be disclosed," Su Xiangyang promised, patting his chest.
In the Cultivation Realm, Elixirs that enhance Soul Power do exist, but they are all Low Grade Elixirs. Although they have some effect, it’s only minor aid to low-grade Alchemists.
A powerful Elixir like the Profound Soul Bodhi Pill does not exist in the Cultivation Realm, and even if it does, it would have been left by predecessors.
Therefore.
The Profound Soul Bodhi Pill is absolutely priceless.
The Pill Formula is an invaluable treasure.
With such a treasure, how could Su Xiangyang leak it?
Gu Chenfeng slowly rose and said, "You can prepare the materials first, and give the Pill Formula to the Alchemists to familiarize themselves and attempt the refining. I will return after some time."
"After some time?" Su Shisan was initially stunned, then asked in astonishment, "Young Master Feng, you’re leaving?"
"Yes." Gu Chenfeng nodded and said, "I have important matters to attend to."
"Really?" Su Shisan looked disappointed, "I still wanted to show Young Master Feng around the Imperial City and introduce him to some friends."
"There will be another opportunity next time." Gu Chenfeng smiled lightly and said, "Cultivate well and break through to the Golden Core Stage as soon as possible, so that next time you encounter the Donghuang War, you won’t be powerless."
Su Shisan anxiously asked, "Young Master Feng, what urgent matter are you going to attend to? Can’t you stay one more day? The Su Family hasn’t properly repaid Young Master Feng yet."
Gu Chenfeng patted Su Shisan on the shoulder and smiled, "Keeping an eye out for Ice Attribute Treasures for me is the best repayment."
Looking towards Su Xiangyang, Su Qianshan, and the others, Gu Chenfeng clasped his fists, "Patriarch Su, esteemed elders, Miss Su, farewell."
"Since Young Master Feng has important matters to attend to, I won’t keep you from them. Young Master Feng, please." Su Xiangyang smiled courteously, personally seeing Gu Chenfeng out.
After leaving the Su Family.
Gu Chenfeng did not leave the Imperial City; instead, he went to the Artifact Refining Pavilion.
If the Artifact Refining Pavilion had not sent strong people to assist last time, Gu Chenfeng and his party might have perished outside the Imperial City.
This was a life-saving grace.
Therefore.
Gu Chenfeng, who was in the Imperial City, found it necessary to properly thank the Artifact Refining Pavilion.
After all, the Ancient Divine Sect was quite far from the Imperial City, and Gu Chenfeng did not know when he would be back next.
Of course.
The Artifact Refining Pavilion was powerful, not weaker than the Ancient God Mountain Commerce Association, and forging a good relationship with it had several advantages.
Gu Chenfeng murmured to himself, "In my past life, the Artifact Refining Pavilion contributed both manpower and resources, helping me search for Ancient Immortal Artifacts and precious refining materials. That battle back then even left the Artifact Refining Pavilion severely weakened."
"In this life, the Artifact Refining Pavilion has saved me again. After so many years, it’s time to repay the favor."
Entering the grand hall of the Artifact Refining Pavilion.
A maid recognized Gu Chenfeng and quickly stepped forward, bowing respectfully, "Young Master Feng, if you need any treasure, I can take you there."
Gu Chenfeng also recognized the maid and smiled politely, "I’m not here to buy treasures today; please take me to see the Artifact Refining Chief."
"Please follow me, Young Master Feng," the maid gestured respectfully.
Following behind the maid, Gu Chenfeng quietly sensed, thinking to himself, "I can’t sense the aura of the Artifact Pavilion Master or the Elders, nor can I feel their Soul Power fluctuations. It seems they are not in the pavilion."
Soon after.
The maid led Gu Chenfeng to a serene courtyard.
The courtyard housed a magnificent building, from which a powerful Soul Power emanated.
Xiao Hanfeng, the Chief, was refining artifacts.
"To report to the Chief, Young Master Feng requests an audience," the maid respectfully reported, gesturing for Gu Chenfeng to wait momentarily before leaving.
"Young Master Feng?" Xiao Hanfeng suddenly opened his eyes, a delighted smile appearing on his aged face.
The next second.
Xiao Hanfeng appeared outside the building.
With a full smile, Xiao Hanfeng clasped his fists and laughed, "Welcome, Young Master Feng, please come in."
"Thank you, Chief," Gu Chenfeng politely clasped his fists.
Inside the luxurious building.
As Xiao Hanfeng poured tea for Gu Chenfeng, he chuckled and said, "Young Master Feng, I have already reprimanded that old fellow Mo Qing, so I hope you won’t mind."
"If you hadn’t mentioned it, Chief, I would have forgotten about it," Gu Chenfeng smiled subtly, "This time, I’ve specially come to thank the Chief."
"If it hadn’t been for the Chief sending strong people to assist last time, my senior brother and senior sister and I might not have survived."
Xiao Hanfeng smiled slightly, "Young Master Feng, don’t be so polite; it was a small effort."
Gu Chenfeng chuckled lightly and said, "While it might have been a small effort for the Chief, it was a life-saving grace for me."
As they talked,
Gu Chenfeng took out a Jade Scroll and handed it to Xiao Hanfeng with a light smile, "A drop of water given in need shall be returned with a spring in deed; please accept this modest token of gratitude."
Xiao Hanfeng waved his hand, courteously declining, "There’s no need for repayment. I only hope that Young Master Feng can offer more guidance in the future; it’s been many years since I’ve made any progress as a Sixth Grade Artifact Refiner."
"Please don’t refuse me so quickly, Chief; once you’ve seen the Jade Scroll, I guarantee you’ll like it," Gu Chenfeng said softly, with a mysterious smile appearing at the corner of his mouth.
"Oh?" Xiao Hanfeng’s curiosity was instantly piqued.
Xiao Hanfeng accepted the Jade Scroll and infused it with a trace of Spiritual Power to view it.
"This is..." Xiao Hanfeng’s expression was suddenly jolted, his old eyes rapidly widening.
Seeing Xiao Hanfeng’s extremely shocked expression, Gu Chenfeng smiled silently.
Xiao Hanfeng was stunned for a full two minutes before coming back to himself.
"Immortal Technique of Refining Artifacts!" Xiao Hanfeng suddenly exclaimed, his chest heaving violently, feeling almost breathless.
Gu Chenfeng smiled slightly, "What do you think, Chief? Are you satisfied?"
Xiao Hanfeng looked at Gu Chenfeng in extreme shock, unable to believe that Gu Chenfeng could produce the Immortal Technique of Refining Artifacts.
He had only had Hei Xuan help out a bit, yet Gu Chenfeng gifted him with the Immortal Technique of Refining Artifacts!
Where did Gu Chenfeng obtain the Immortal Technique of Refining Artifacts?
Astonished, Xiao Hanfeng quickly said, "Young Master Feng, this item is too precious, exceedingly so, and I absolutely cannot accept it."
Gu Chenfeng smiled lightly, "Take it; it is also a means to repay the favor."
