"Yao Lao, teach me the art of medicine!"
"Ah? No problem teaching you, but, Emperor, my alchemical skills might not be effective for you?" Yao Chen agreed straightforwardly. His alchemy techniques had been uploaded to the group store, and teaching Meng Chuan face-to-face posed no issues.
"It might not have an effect now, but it will be different after I learn it. Maybe I'll teach you a thing or two in the future," Meng Chuan smiled. The alchemy technique in the world of Medicine Dust was relatively subtle, and it was currently useless for him. However, after learning it, he could elevate this skill to a higher level by blending the old with the new.
Meng Chuan came to break the world with two goals in mind: to perfect the Daohuo Furnace and explore the great road of this world.
Alchemy was a crucial part of this world and would undoubtedly aid Meng Chuan in realizing the world's grand path.
Being able to perceive and understand the ways of different worlds was immensely beneficial for Meng Chuan at the moment, especially for his Dao Shi Avenue.
The emergence of chat groups had significantly expanded the upper limit of Taoism.
"Hahahaha, indeed. If my alchemy technique reaches the peak of this world, I might have to seek advice from the emperor!" Yao Chen figured out the key points and said with a smile.
If that day came, he wouldn't have time to celebrate. For Yaochen, refining medicine was the thing he loved most in life.
Although that day might be a long way off.
"Perhaps one day, I'll be able to refine the Nine Turns Elixir for you, Emperor!"
"No, no, Old Yao, once you cultivate to my level, refining a Nine Turns Elixir won't be a problem," Meng Chuan assured.
The Nine Turns Immortal Pill that covered the heavens wasn't crafted through orthodox methods of refining medicine. It was more like using the emperor's mighty power to temper endless divine talents, supplemented by the force of heaven and earth to form a pill.
Refining medicine wasn't the mainstream path in the world that covered the sky. Emperors would die if they didn't fight. Who would give them time to study refining medicine? They could have the time once they became emperors, but the highest achievement in pill medicine couldn't grant them immortality or longevity. The Road to Longevity couldn't be studied, let alone refining medicine.
In the original work, both Emperor Zun and Ye Fan had spent a considerable amount of time practicing elixirs. But if they were as skilled at refining medicine as they were at cultivating, it wouldn't necessarily lead to success...
This was one of the reasons why Meng Chuan wanted to learn the art of medicine alongside his martial skills. It would allow him to systematically learn medical knowledge.
"Xiao Yan's cultivation—how should we guide him, Yao Lao? The words about the one-year duel have already spread widely." Meng Chuan asked with a smile.
"Haha, it's time for the Emperor to witness my methods," Yao Chen smiled. But looking at Meng Chuan, he added, "Small methods are small methods."
"Hahahaha."
"Lao Yao, since I want to learn medicine refining from you, I should also give you a gift of gratitude," Meng Chuan said. He couldn't freeload, and he wasn't that kind of person.
"The Emperor has already seen through you. We're all friends in the group. What kind of gift do you want to give? I'm not that kind of person..." Yao Chen was about to refuse when he suddenly saw something Meng Chuan grabbed from the void. He choked and then said righteously:
"I'm not an ignorant person. Since the Emperor wants to give it, I can't decline; otherwise, it would damage the Emperor's reputation!"
Meng Chuan stared at Yao Chen, his face unwavering. He looked directly at Meng Chuan.
"Yao Lao, at this moment, you really resemble Xiao Meng."
As expected, the three black sheep of the chat group were you three!
Yaochen directly ignored Meng Chuan's words. You can say what you want; everyone knows that the big villain in the chat group is Big Meng Xiaomeng.
"Where did you get this, Great Emperor?" Yao Chen looked at the skeleton in front of him, his excitement evident.
"The Dou Qi Continent is quite vast. There are always places where Dou Emperors have died. My mind scanned the entire Dou Qi Continent and found a few Dou Emperor bones. This is one of them. If you're not satisfied, you can change it."
Meng Chuan hesitated and said, "Well, if you want a female Dou Emperor skeleton, I found one too, and I can give it to you. But I'm afraid it might not be suitable."
In reality, Meng Chuan had indeed found the bones of four Dou Emperors. In the history of the Dou Qi Continent, there were undoubtedly many Dou Emperors who met violent ends. One of them died under the ancient Bodhi tree!
Yaochen's face twitched. Do you know what you're talking about? Nonsense, nonsense, baseless claims!
"No, I think this one is pretty good; I like it very much." Yao Chen looked at the Dou Emperor skeleton in front of him, his expression very satisfied.
In the original plot, he had just used a Dou Zun bone and a Dou Saint arm bone as his body. Now, he had a complete Dou Emperor bone.
Wuhu! Ascension!
"Now, the only materials needed for the body are the bone-melting pill and the blood essence of monsters." Yaochen felt a bit pleased. These two things weren't difficult to obtain. With his current recovery speed, it wouldn't be long before he could refine the pill himself. As for the essence of blood, it was just a matter of finding a suitable monster and extracting some blood.
"Just leave these two things to me. Since you want to teach me alchemy and you've decided to continue on the path of martial ascension, I'll give you a grand gift," Meng Chuan assured Yaochen not to worry about it.
Yaochen looked at Meng Chuan, feeling warmth in his heart, and said a thousand words at the end: "Long live the Emperor!"
Meng Chuan: ???
"You're cursing me to die early? Well, you Medicine Dust!" Meng Chuan was furious. Eyes but no pearls, not knowing how to appreciate the situation. This ring, he decided, would not stay!
Meng Chuan had already lived for over 10,000 years in his first life. Not to mention the second life; even in the ninth life of the Road to the Red World, he finally achieved an endless life. Did that mean he would live forever?
Malicious!
"Hahahaha, slipped my tongue there." Yao Chen chuckled awkwardly, realizing that what he said was a bit off.
Medicine Dust: Pictures
Yaochen: A gift from the Emperor—the bones of the Dou Emperor!
Yaochen sent the pictures directly to the group to show off.
Bibi Dong: How did you give him a corpse?
Yuan Dagu: Somewhat shabby
Meng Qi: Love him, give him the best!
Meng Chuan: @孟奇, want
a set meal?
Seeing this message, Meng Qi was extremely annoyed. The authority dog! Bullies me, an ordinary administrator! I won't share the sky with you!
Meng Qi: The weather is very good today, are you still handsome, Great?
Zhang Sanfeng: Flattering?
Without bothering to check the "treasures" in the group, Meng Chuan began to ask Yaochen about alchemy techniques. As for Gu Ling's coldness, he had already finished his research.
"If you want to be a pharmacist, you need a trace of wood in the fire to become a pharmacist," Yao Chen said, looking at the colorful manifestations in front of him—fire in the wood, fire in the water, and fire in the gold. With heavenly emperor-level mana, he continued:
"The Emperor must meet this requirement."
"Then you need to have excellent soul perception, and when refining medicine, there must be a powerful flame that makes the process twice as effective with half the effort."
"Boom!"
Real fire from the sun ignited from a trace of Yuanshen power released outside Meng Chuan.
Medicine Dust: "..."
Great Emperor, I'm gaining supernatural powers soon!
