Level Up in Martial World

"I wonder why the young master has called to take a furnace?" Yu Bai thought, feeling a little confused.

"Isn't the young master just at the martial trainee level?" A frown appeared on his face as he contemplated.

"Is he trying to become a pill apprentice?" Actually, since the pills were so rare and sacred and could only be made by first-stage martial artists, there was a profession that specialized in creating an inferior version of pills which could be made by any martial artist who had Qi. However, it was a very tedious process that needed to be carefully done with meticulous preparation.

The study should be thorough because they could create a paste with a similar effect to pills, but the effectiveness was at least 100 times lower than a pill.

Even if some martial artists devoted their entire lives to studying materials and the process, only then could any effective result be produced. It had nothing to do with talent, so there were rarely any pill apprentices in a generation.

Lu Zhen, who had never heard of such things, shouldn't even be able to get any result, even if he was talented in pill refinement, unless he was a first-stage martial artist, which was impossible.

"Young master must want to try new things. Awakening a bloodline really changes the whole personality of a person," Yu Bai thought with a sigh.

"Step! Step!"

The sound of approaching footsteps suddenly caught Yu Bai's attention, causing him to straighten up.

The door creaked open, and he was about to greet the person entering when he saw Lu Zhen's transformed physique.

He was left stunned, his gaze fixed on Lu Zhen's hulking body. Yu Bai could sense a significant increase in Lu Zhen's aura, and an unusual image of a tree mixed with a feeling of muscle flashed through his mind as he observed him.

"Don't worry about it. I just had a breakthrough in my cultivation," Lu Zhen explained, snapping Yu Bai out of his daze as he waved his hands.

Lu Zhen then turned his attention to the alchemy furnace in the room. "So this is the alchemy furnace, huh?" he remarked, his gaze fixed on the plain black cauldron covered with a simple lid.

"Yes, young master," Yu Bai confirmed, patting the furnace while trying to maintain his composure.

He continued, "And the meat of the third-stage beast has been delivered, young master, but…" Yu Bai hesitated, a look of concern on his face.

"But what?" Lu Zhen questioned, his eyes locked onto Yu Bai.

Yu Bai couldn't help but start sweating, feeling nervous under Lu Zhen's intense gaze. "It might be a little difficult for us to mine the qi stone secretly. If the other three major families discover it, they will undoubtedly want a piece of the pie," he explained with uncertainty.

"The three other major families, huh..." Lu Zhen thought, wearing a pensive expression.

"I will have to fight them eventually." Since Lu Zhen slaughtered the young master of the Xia family and kidnapped the young miss of the Huang family in broad daylight, nonetheless, he knew he had to confront the Huang family eventually.

For the Xia family, Lu Zhen was planning to hide Xia Long's death until forever, or when he became a first-stage martial artist. At that time, even if the Xia family wanted to do anything, they had to swallow their anger if they were brain dead enough to offend him. Lu Zhen wouldn't mind the four families becoming three major families.

"Alright, you can go, old bai." Lu Zhen said as he waved his hands.

Yu Bai nodded his head; however, he had a little hesitating expression on his face.

"Are you sure you would not need any pill techniques?" Yu Bai asked.

Lu Zhen just shook his head.

"I already have some technique; you don't have to give me old bai."

"Alright, young master." Yu Bai said as he left the room.

Yu Bai just sighed when he left the room.

"Young Master has become a grown man."

Lu Zhen just watched Yu Bai leave.

"So let's see." Lu Zhen said as he touched the cauldron that it was rather rough to the touch.

"Let's get started," Lu Zhen thought as he moved towards the corner of the room where the black sack was, for which he had gone to the trouble of kidnapping the Huang family.

[Verdant body-refining pill]

[Grade: Qi item]

[Remark: a book that has the perfect recording and teaching of wood qi paste and pill technique, which is tailor-made for wood attribute practitioners. It can help wood qi attributed martial artist to refine their body with wood qi faster.]

Lu Zhen casually took out a thick book from the book, which was comparable to the thickness of the combat art books, and looked at it with his golden eyes.

"This is exactly what I needed." Lu Zhen thought to himself as he flipped open the book.

The first thing he saw was a picture of a long list of details about herbs and extraction methods.

Seeing this, Lu Zhen frowned and just skipped the entire part, which was practically more than half the book.

And the other half or less was a long page of hand-drawn pictures that showed the details of the fusion process of the pills and the pastes.

The paste was quite complex to make, whereas the pill appeared to be somewhat simple to make, which stunned Lu Zhen. Although he couldn't understand what the last step of the pill was, it was undoubtedly more simple than the paste.

"A... why is it so easy to create the pills than the paste?" Lu Zhen thought as he carefully remembered the details of the pill.

"Wait, is it because of those strange symbols?" Lu Zhen thought as his expression morphed into a contemplative expression. As he thought more about it, Lu Zhen was pretty much 99% sure it was because of those strange symbols.

"Forget it then."
