Chapter 626 - 606: Potential Points Breakthrough

’The Potential Points from the Nourishing Vein and Bone Marrow Cleansing Pill are much higher than I expected!’

After successfully refining the Nourishing Vein and Bone Marrow Cleansing Pill, Yang Chan began to consume it.

Going from a normal Nourishing Vein and Bone Marrow Cleansing Pill at the start to the Top Quality version now had only taken a single day.

Upgrading the Nourishing Vein and Bone Marrow Cleansing Pill to Top Quality after a successful refinement wasn’t complex for Yang Chan. It was merely a matter of adding a few more details to the process, something that was effortless for him.

The various summaries he usually made played a huge role at this moment. Yang Chan had long since integrated these practices into his daily routine, and the benefits were obvious.

’A standard Nourishing Vein and Bone Marrow Cleansing Pill provides 3.0 to my Daily Potential Point Collection, while the Top Quality version boosts it to 3.4. This has pushed my Daily Potential Point Collection from 12.8 to 16.2, letting me use four more Potential Points each day.’

’As expected, the better an Elixir’s quality, the more it adds to my Daily Potential Point Collection.’

’If I refine other Elixirs for a Bone Marrow Cleansing Grandmaster’s Cultivation, I should be able to break past 20.0 for my Daily Potential Point Collection.’

Yang Chan mused silently.

His Alchemy Ability improved every day. The Elixirs he could provide became more precious and their effects more potent, which naturally caused his Daily Potential Point Collection to skyrocket.

For instance, a single Nourishing Vein and Bone Marrow Cleansing Pill now provided as many Potential Points as several different types of elixirs combined.

The problem was that the gain in Potential Points could not be repeatedly obtained from the same type of Elixir. Otherwise, Yang Chan would have just eaten several hundred Nourishing Vein and Bone Marrow Cleansing Pills a day. If he could do that, he wouldn’t even need to worry about the Blood Exchange Martial Saint Realm.

Still, being able to increase his Potential Points by four each day would allow Yang Chan to boost his Combat Power much faster.

After all, he could previously only add 12 Potential Points a day. Now, at 16, it was an increase of one-third over the original amount. For Yang Chan’s daily Cultivation, this was a significant boost.

It was all the more precious at a time like this, when he urgently needed to increase his Combat Power.

’Sect Leader Gu and the others should be back at the Sect tomorrow. I’ll find out more about the situation from him then.’

’If the situation is dire, he should have made some preparations!’

’For now, I’ll refine more Nourishing Vein and Bone Marrow Cleansing Pills as a backup. That way, even if things get bad, my Daily Potential Point Collection won’t be affected!’

Yang Chan was very happy about the increase in his Daily Potential Point Collection, but with the crisis not yet over, he naturally had to consider things carefully.

Normally, after successfully refining a batch of Nourishing Vein and Bone Marrow Cleansing Pills, Yang Chan would have begun researching the Pill Formulas left behind in the Sect.

The Cyan Yuan Sect had Pill Formulas left by its ancestors to aid a Bone Marrow Cleansing Grandmaster’s Cultivation. Yang Chan had also obtained some Pill Formulas when his Pharmacist profession advanced to a higher level. He previously lacked the corresponding ingredients, as the main components for these formulas were all Top Level Spiritual Materials, which were quite difficult to acquire. However, the situation was different now.

In the Purple Void Secret Realm, Yang Chan had harvested a great deal of Top Level Spiritual Materials. Later, the Array Spirit "invested" some more in him, allowing him to reap great rewards. Naturally, he could now refine the elixirs from these Pill Formulas.

However, before starting the refining, he still needed to study the entire process first. After all, Pill Formulas of this level were not easy to refine and would also consume a great deal of time.

But because of the Alien Race on the border, Yang Chan could only postpone this matter for now. Instead, based on the current situation, he would prepare more Nourishing Vein and Bone Marrow Cleansing Pills, just in case.

The Alien Race on the border was a huge problem.

...

"Pharmacist Yang, Sect Leader Gu is back!"

Han Bingyu came to the study to report the situation to Yang Chan, just as he had previously arranged.

Yang Chan had been waiting for Gu An to return to the Cyan Yuan Sect to find out exactly what had happened in the Purple Void Secret Realm.

Even after so many days back in the Cyan Yuan Sect, Yang Chan still hadn’t figured out how the Purple Void Secret Realm had allowed those Alien Races to enter the Taiyu Divine Continent. There hadn’t been a single trace of them before.

While inside the Purple Void Secret Realm, he hadn’t seen any sign of so many Alien Races.

Or perhaps it was more accurate to say that at the time, Yang Chan didn’t think these Alien Races could cause much of a stir; they were just beings to be surrounded and killed.

Of course, this was only one of his concerns. He also wondered about the state of the Purple Void Secret Realm and the Solitary Void Trial Array. The latter was especially important, as it concerned the Array Spirit, an existence that could bring him many Potential Points. He couldn’t let it just disappear; that would be a great disappointment to him.

Finally, there was the matter of the situation with the Alien Race. This was very important. The information Yang Chan could get through the Cyan Yuan Sect was limited, and he knew nothing of the more secretive details, let alone anything else.

However, Gu An was returning from the border. He should have a lot of confidential information—news that hadn’t yet spread and that Yang Chan had no way of obtaining before.

"Let’s go and greet him."

Gu An was returning. Whether as the Sect Leader of the Cyan Yuan Sect or as a survivor of the Purple Void Secret Realm, he had to be welcomed.

As the Chief Pharmacist of the Cyan Yuan Sect, Yang Chan was no exception.

Gu An’s return was a major event for the Cyan Yuan Sect. Han Bingyu wasn’t the only one who received the news; the other halls naturally heard it as well, and everyone flocked to the sect gate to welcome him.

When Yang Chan and Han Bingyu arrived, there were already people waiting there.

In truth, Yang Chan’s own return should have been met with a similar reception, at least from the people of the Medicine Hall. However, he hadn’t notified anyone before coming back, returning directly to the Cyan Yuan Sect at night, which had caught everyone by surprise.

After learning of Yang Chan’s return, many people had come to visit. Some needed to request his Alchemy services, while others wanted to inquire about the situation in the Purple Void Secret Realm. Everyone had a different purpose.

Yang Chan had responded to them all appropriately. He shared what information he knew and made arrangements for Alchemy requests. Everything was handled reasonably. Of course, Han Bingyu’s help in this matter had saved him a lot of trouble, giving him more time to refine Elixirs.

It also allowed Yang Chan to refine the Elixirs needed for a Bone Marrow Cleansing Grandmaster’s Cultivation, which were of great help to an expert like him who had completed his first Bone Marrow Cleansing.

At this moment, before the Cyan Yuan Sect’s gate, numerous disciples had gathered. Although their numbers were not as great as before, the crowd was still vast and impressive.

These people represented the foundation of the Cyan Yuan Sect. Although the sect had endured many hardships and its overall Combat Power had declined significantly, the Cultivation Resources accumulated within the Sect were far greater than before.

The appearance of Taiyin Heaven and the Purple Void Secret Realm had brought the Cyan Yuan Sect a great deal of Spiritual Materials needed for Cultivation.

The two large Secret Realms had appeared in quick succession. The Cyan Yuan Sect had also leveraged its connection to the Merak Sacred Land to gain a bountiful harvest from within the realms. Thus, they had an abundance of Cultivation Resources. These were the sect’s foundation, capable of nurturing more talent.

The Cyan Yuan Sect had fewer members now, but with these accumulated resources, returning to its peak was not a problem.
