Chapter 1219: Chapter 1217: Alchemy Sanctuary

Inside the cave in the back mountain.

“Failed again!”

Zuo Linglong’s face looked extremely unpleasant. He clenched his fist directly and smashed the rock beside him with force before starting to speak: “Why do I feel my medicine-crafting level is gradually declining since I’ve recovered from illness?”

“Could it be that my past illness still has some effects on me? But that can’t be possible, right?”

Zuo Linglong also began to ponder in his heart, as this seemed to be the truth.

The quality of the elixirs he refined was getting worse, even worse than the ones he previously made!

Yet during this time, he had been working to improve his elixir-crafting skills, so why do his efforts seem to produce the opposite effect?

After hesitating for a moment, Zuo Linglong prepared to leave in frustration, but he saw Wang Zhan and a few others approaching him. He paused for a moment and, full of confusion, said: “Brother Wang? When did you all return? And why didn’t anyone inform me? Had I known you were returning, I would’ve gone outside to greet you!”

Seeing Zuo Linglong’s expression, Wang Zhan shook his head. Anyone could tell that Zuo Linglong was just forcing a smile.

Moreover, Wang Zhan and the others had already heard Zuo Linglong’s words. Since he was already upset, yet still pretending to be cheerful, she really was a thoughtful young girl!

After patting his shoulder, Wang Zhan smiled and said: “Alright, you don’t need to continue hiding your emotions in front of us. We already heard you get angry, so we naturally know your mood isn’t good now.”

“But I still want to advise you that you must keep your mind stable. Once your state of mind becomes increasingly troubled, it will have an impact on you, potentially even affecting your elixir-crafting skills.”

“We came here this time to help you solve this problem. We’ve come up with a method that might allow you to break through the bottleneck and enable you to completely refine high-grade elixirs, but the process will be challenging. So if you’re ready, I’ll take you to a paradise for elixir crafting!”

Sword Spirit and Fire Qilin’s expressions remained unchanged, standing like protectors beside Wang Zhan.

Yet everyone’s gaze was fixed on Zuo Linglong, clearly waiting for his response.

After hesitating for a moment, Zuo Linglong asked: “Is there such a magical place on the Star War Battlefield? How haven’t I heard of it before? Brother Wang, is it possible you’re lying to me because you see my mood isn’t good? But if that’s the case, I advise you not to waste time. I am not the type of person you think, and I won’t take this to heart.”

Zuo Linglong was trying his best to adjust his mindset, believing that with some time, he could arrange everything properly, even restore his mindset, and even improve his elixir-crafting skills!

But before Wang Zhan could speak, footsteps were heard from behind, followed by someone saying: “I assume they plan to take you to the Elixir Valley. I know there are several experts in Elixir Valley who are always contemplating how to refine high-grade elixirs. It truly is a paradise for you!”

“But you need to be cautious. People in the Elixir Valley are often arrogant, this results from the Star War Battlefield praising them highly, claiming the alchemy Grandmasters on the battlefield are all inferior to the Elders of Elixir Valley!”

“But indeed, the Elders in Elixir Valley are seasoned goblins, exceptionally skilled in elixir crafting, reportedly reaching a state of mastery.”

Hearing this voice, Wang Zhan immediately showed a helpless smile.

The three of them had hidden their presence, so the people Inside Tian Pavilion did not notice them, but they overlooked one crucial detail, which was that Inside Tian Pavilion there was a Hexagonal Golden Snake, much stronger than the three of them!

So even if they purposely concealed their presence, they couldn’t hide from the eyes of the Hexagonal Golden Snake!

It appears it indeed was so, as the Hexagonal Golden Snake has found its way here.

Wang Zhan’s mouth curved into a helpless smile, then he directly turned his gaze to the Hexagonal Golden Snake, smiling as he spoke: “I knew you would certainly come, but I didn’t expect your senses to be so keen, discovering our solution so quickly?”

“Alright, let’s not talk about that now.”

The Hexagonal Golden Snake waved at Wang Zhan, not showing any resentment, continuing, “Since you intentionally concealed your presence, you must have made your decision, but I need to remind you, Elixir Valley is not easy to traverse.”

“Over the years, Elixir Valley has provided numerous elixirs for many experts on the Star War Battlefield, and those people have long looked to Elixir Valley for guidance, so if you intend to take action against Elixir Valley, all of them will become your obstacle, so you must be careful.”

“Moreover, it’s said that the strength of those officials Inside the Elixir Valley is even on par with mine. Unless it’s absolutely necessary, make sure not to engage in a fight.”

Hexagonal Golden Snake kindly reminded them, as he couldn’t follow Wang Zhan’s group closely, leaving the upcoming arrangements to Wang Zhan and the others.

Wang Zhan nodded, smiling as he spoke, “I’m well aware of this, so I won’t engage with the people of the Elixir Valley. The reason for going there is to exchange ideas with them and see if Zuo Linglong can overcome the bottleneck; the other matters are not as important.”

Hexagonal Golden Snake smiled and nodded, knowing Wang Zhan’s prudence meant there was no need to worry much.

“By the way, I forgot to ask you, how is the Ninefold Thunder Sound Tower matter handled? Did you manage to get the Ninefold Thunder Sound Tower?”

Without any reservation, Wang Zhan told Hexagonal Golden Snake everything that transpired in the Ninefold Thunder Sound Tower.

Hexagonal Golden Snake was repeatedly shocked, believing he wouldn’t be able to leave the Ninefold Thunder Sound Tower unscathed if he ventured inside. Wang Zhan and his group were truly fortunate to emerge unscathed from such a perilous situation!

Truly admirable!

Meanwhile, Wang Zhan spoke again, “By the way, I’ll need you to continue holding the fort Inside Tian Pavilion, but once we settle things here, we’ll hurry over and definitely won’t delay too much.”

“It might be troublesome for you during this time, but having them by your side should provide some assistance.”

Hexagonal Golden Snake chuckled and waved his hand. Staying Inside Tian Pavilion wasn’t a taxing matter; he found it quite relaxing.

Being by Wang Zhan’s side often meant facing life and death situations, and constantly engaging in battles. Although Hexagonal Golden Snake was very confident in his skills, it made it impossible to focus calmly on improving his cultivation!

Even though protecting everyone Inside Tian Pavilion was necessary, the pavilion’s reputation as the top faction in the area deterred anyone from easily causing trouble. Moreover, mundane duties were handled by Xuan Yu and others, granting him leisure!

“Alright, you don’t need to worry about these things. With me holding the fort Inside Tian Pavilion, I guarantee nothing will happen here. Make sure you all stay cautious. If anything unexpected arises, remember to have someone return to Tian Pavilion and report back!”

Wang Zhan simply nodded and didn’t elaborate further.

He and Hexagonal Golden Snake didn’t need lengthy exchanges or formality; their bond was forged through life and death encounters. If not for Wang Zhan standing up for Hexagonal Golden Snake against the Heavenly Tribulation, he might not be alive today!

And later on, Hexagonal Golden Snake repeatedly risked himself for Wang Zhan; without his help, Wang Zhan might not have survived until now.

Thus, they were truly brothers in life and death!

However, Zuo Linglong, standing nearby, was still deep in thought. His eyes shifted before he slowly spoke, “How come I’ve never heard of matters concerning Elixir Valley before?”

“Are the people Inside Elixir Valley really that formidable? Can they truly craft high-grade elixirs?”

During this period, Zuo Linglong had been tirelessly exploring methods to refine high-grade elixirs but often faced obstacles.

Thus he understood the struggles and challenges involved!

Yet, since Zuo Linglong hadn’t seen much of the world, he stayed in the village before meeting Wang Zhan. How could he be familiar with everything concerning Elixir Valley then?

Now, after understanding matters about Elixir Valley, he naturally felt extremely shocked.

Wang Zhan and his group exchanged glances, then all chuckled and shook their heads.

“Elixir Valley certainly exists, and on the Star War Battlefield, they indeed have a place. Their factions are beyond your imagination.”

“And there are indeed some Grandmasters of alchemy among them, but worry not; this time, you’ll certainly gain substantial benefits.”

“So there’s no need to worry further. Quickly pack up a bit and come with us.”
