In a short time, he had become a Master rank alchemist. If one heard of this fact, then one would see Xu Yuan's figure as a lunatic.
How could an ordinary cultivator become an alchemist within a day? Coupled with the fact that Xu Yuan immediately jumped to the rank of Master.
At least if one wanted to become an alchemist, then one would need a strong will, and it would take several years to rise to the rank of Novice.
For Xu Yuan, as long as there is a system in his brain, nothing is impossible. Even if he wants to become a God, he only needs to give up a huge number of Exchange Points, and then the system will make him a God in a day.
But that huge amount was a number he couldn't even imagine, and he would need at least a few billion Exchange Points or even trillions of Exchange Points.
Earning 10,000 Exchange Points alone was already very difficult. How could he imagine that he would earn trillions of Exchange Points in his lifetime? At least it would take him a few hundred more years.
He also remembered that an alchemist needed strong mental training. So he also needed to buy a Fighting Art that could train his soul.
"System, I want to see some soul enhancement arts!"
His consciousness began to divert into the system store, and he saw a myriad of soul enhancement arts that allowed his soul to become stronger.
[Soul Absorbing Arts (Heaven Level): Master can absorb the existence of heaven and earth souls to increase Master's soul power. Masters can also absorb the souls of others or injure the souls of others; Price: 100 Exchange Points]
[Demon Inner Arts (Earth Level): Master can increase Master's soul power with the power of darkness, evil, cruelty. Masters can also turn other people into demons when this art is at its highest stage; Price: 50 Exchange Points]
[Soul Destroying Arts (Earth Grade): Has the same benefits as Soul Absorbing Arts, but Masters can raise the rank of this art to higher using many Skill Points; Price: 50 Exchange Points]
Xu Yuan was amazed after seeing the arts' usefulness, especially the Demonic Inner Arts. The user had to prioritize evil energy to be able to use the art. Still, unfortunately, Xu Yuan couldn't use the Demonic Inner Art, as he was not a cultivator walking the path of darkness.
Xu Yuan was more interested in Soul Destroying Arts, having the same uses as Soul Absorbing Arts, Sky tier arts. Still, Soul Destroying Arts were Earth tier arts, and he could raise the ferocity of higher tier arts using his Skill Points.
Xu Yuan had already decided that he would choose the Soul Destroying Art, "System, I want to purchase the Soul Destroying Art and raise the comprehension percentage to 100%,"
[Master has purchased the Soul Destroying Art, Master's Exchange Points will be reduced by 50 Points]
[Comprehension process art takes time, please wait a moment]
[…100%]
[Master has fully comprehended the Soul Destruction Art, Master's Skill Points will be reduced by 1,000 Skill Points]
Xu Yuan felt his consciousness becoming stronger, followed by his five senses getting sharper. It was all thanks to the Soul Arts he had just learned.
Now Xu Yuan was ready to face the Tang family alchemist tomorrow. He just stayed silent, waiting for it.
While passing the time, Xu Yuan thought about playing a smartphone game.
He immediately looked into the system inventory and saw several modern items that he usually used on Earth, such as smartphones, radios, televisions, even laptops. Everything is free because he is the one who makes the item.
He swung his hand, and then a flat black object was in his hand. Xu Yuan was happy. If only Gu Jian saw what was in his hand, he would be confused.
Xu Yuan turned on his phone, and the screen that was originally off started to light up. Shortly after that, he pressed the snake icon (Slither.io) and started playing the game.
All-day he spent playing games, without anyone coming to him.
Unbeknownst to him, time had passed quickly, and he had already lived a day in the Cultivator's Land. Today was also the day he would disguise himself as an alchemist.
Xu He and a few people in the pill shop started getting ready to welcome the arrival of the alchemist that Xu Yuan was about to bring.
They were also waiting impatiently, especially Xu He. He knew that Xu Yuan rarely went out of town, but how did Xu Yuan know an alchemist?
Xu Yuan was getting ready. Like the original plan, he would go to the mountains and emerge from there as a middle-aged man proficient in alchemy.
Without being escorted by anyone, including Gu Jian, Xu Yuan immediately went to enter the mountain. After that, he began to disguise himself as a short older man using the Shadow Arts he obtained from the system.
In the eyes of others, Xu Yuan would be seen as a stooped older man who looked in pain but exuded a terrifying aura.
"Looks like there won't be anyone who recognizes me in the entire Xianjin city, only people at the Heavenly Path stage can break my disguise, but in Xianjin city there isn't a single cultivator at that stage…," his monologue was satisfied.
Since he was still at the Birth level, the disguise he used wouldn't be completely perfect. Only cultivators who are at the Emperor stage can use the Shadow Arts of the highest level. Hence no one in this world will recognize you except God.
Xu Yuan let out a disappointed sigh. If only there were internet in the Cultivator Land, then he would have posted a status on his social media account with a photo of himself being an old man with the caption, 'Be undercover guys, while deceiving people… Capcusss!'
But it's a shame he couldn't catch the internet signal on his cell phone. Even though he can buy Wifi from the system store, he still needs a network on his Wifi.
Meanwhile, in the Xu Family shop, Xu He and a few people continued to wait for the alchemist Xu Yuan mentioned.
A moment later, a hunchbacked older man came up to them, and the older man was none other than Xu Yuan in disguise.
"I didn't expect to visit a slum like this…, tsk… tsk… tsk…," the old man monologued as he kept his eyes on the state of the room.
Xu He and a few maids frowned as they heard the older man's mutterings.
The old man continued, "If young benefactor Xu had not asked me to come to this small place, I would never have agreed,"
When Xu heard the word 'Xu' come out of the old man's mouth, he immediately approached the hunched old man.
"Excuse me sir, are you saying that the benefactor Xu that you mentioned earlier is young master Xu Yuan?" he asked doubtfully.
"Hmph! Of course! You should thank the Xu Yuan you mentioned. He was willing to kneel before me to get my help!" Xu Yuan happily tricked Xu He and the others.
He would use this disguise effect perfectly. He also deliberately added tragedy to the story he made so that everyone would feel moved by Xu Yuan's actions.
Xu He was shocked when he heard the older man's words before him, and he knew Xu Yuan would never kneel to a stranger. But the older man's words didn't appear to be a lie. If only Xu Yuan had knelt for the help of this older man in front of him, then the entire Xu family would be deeply indebted to Xu Yuan.
Suddenly a system voice rang in his brain,
[Congratulations! Master has deceived many people with good intentions, and Master got 2x big box of mystery]
