Chu Chen quickly raised his hand and said, "Yes, do you dare to ask me your senior sister's name?"
"Just call me Qingyue. Are you sure you want to become Elder Lingxin's alchemy assistant?" The woman in green looked at him for a few times, and a strange look suddenly appeared on her elegant face.
Chu Chen's lips curled up: "Senior sister, what are the cultivation requirements for Elder Lingxin to recruit assistants? I haven't reached the Lingshui realm yet..."
Before she finished speaking, Senior Sister Qingyue waved her hand quickly: "That's not what I meant. Elder Lingxin does not have high requirements for the assistant's cultivation level, as long as he reaches the sixth level of spiritual energy. It's just... just..."
She hesitantly wanted to say something, looked around, pulled Chu Chen to a somewhat remote corner, and whispered a few words softly, "It's just that Elder Lingxin's temperament is a bit unpredictable, he has a bad temper, and he is extremely harsh. , there are already several brothers with good tempers who want to take on this task, but after only two days of doing it, they were scolded by the elders and turned back. I think you are a bit unfamiliar. You must have just started, so I am afraid that you will not be able to bear it. of."
Chu Chen was stunned for a moment. He has basically never been to the mission hall, so he hardly knows the people here.
Seeing the senior sister's warning in a low voice, I couldn't help but feel moved in my heart, and smiled gratefully: "Thank you, senior sister, for the tip. It's just that since the elder has issued this task, he must be quite anxious. Moreover, if this task cannot be completed, how can it be done?" Aren’t you going to bother me by having to wait here every day? Let me give it a try. Anyway, it won’t matter if I get beaten a few times.”
Senior Sister Qingyue frowned and thought for a while, then looked at Chu Chen a few more times, and nodded hesitantly: "That's right, that's good... If Elder Lingxin sees that you are new here, he should lower his requirements a little. Son... Then you go and try. But don't blame me for not reminding you. You must be careful and endure a few scoldings from her. Don't get angry and contradict the elder in person (Baidu search is the fastest and most stable). That is a big sin. !”
"Sister, don't worry, I naturally know this." Chu Chen said with a smile.
"Well, then follow me." Qingyue waved her hand and walked towards the exit of the hall.
The courtyard where Elder Lingxin is located is in a valley on the top of a very remote hill.
According to Senior Sister Qingyue, Elder Lingxin has a bad temper and is extremely withdrawn. He has little interaction with other elders and has always been a loner.
This also meant that when she wanted to refine the elixir, she couldn't find anyone to help her, so she had to issue a task to recruit an assistant for refining the elixir.
"Elder Lingxin's medicine refining skills are extremely impressive. Even the sect leader is amazed by it. If you work well, are appreciated by the elder, and are accepted as her direct disciple, you will reach the sky in one step!"
Now that Chu Chen has been led into the cold valley of Elder Lingxin, Senior Sister Qingyue can only encourage him bravely.
Chu Chen smiled and nodded. But he didn't worry about it. He didn't care about being a direct disciple.
With a treasure mountain in Black Mist Valley, he no longer cares about any kind of orthodoxy or inheritance.
What's more, one's personal mentor is not someone you recognize casually. As the saying goes, "Once a teacher, always a father." There are many monks who have cultivated to advanced levels and can easily live for hundreds of years.
But their parents and relatives cannot have such a long life span.
Therefore, in the world of monks, the relationship between master and disciple is stronger and more reliable than the relationship between father and son in the mortal world. It is the true inheritance of the mantle.
The master is choosing his disciples, and the disciples are also choosing their master.
Passing through the cold valley covered with bluestones and planted with several wintersweet trees, and entering the ancient palace of Elder Lingxin, a strong scent of medicinal fragrance hit his face, shocking Chu Chen's whole body, and he immediately felt refreshed. All the fatigue was swept away.
Looking around, the huge ancient palace is filled with large and small medicine boxes, medicine stoves, medicine cauldrons, medicine basins, and medicine shelves. In the center of the main hall, a three-foot-tall bronze medicine cauldron, embroidered with simple and mysterious patterns, and glowing with gleaming light is burning. The intense aroma of medicine comes from this bronze medicine cauldron. spread out.
In front of this huge medicine furnace, a slim figure was sitting cross-legged with his back to them. Streams of bright and dazzling light emanated from her body and continued to submerge into the medicine furnace.
On her body, the green thin shirt was soaked with sweat, which made her slim figure look extremely attractive.
When Chu Chen was about to speak, Senior Sister Qingyue next to him pulled him, quietly made a silencing gesture, and stood respectfully on the side of the hall, waiting patiently.
Seeing this, Chu Chen also understood that this elder was at a critical moment of refining medicine and could not be disturbed. Therefore, he followed Senior Sister Qingyue and stood aside respectfully, not daring to move.
After a full hour, with a soft sound, the huge medicine furnace suddenly shone brightly. In the bright flames, the huge bronze furnace lid suddenly opened, and balls of dazzling golden light rose into the sky.
"Well done!"
Only a scolding sound was heard. The figure sitting cross-legged on the ground waved his sleeves and a ray of clear light burst out. In an instant, he caught the golden light in the air and put it into his storage ring.
"This furnace of 'Blue Blood Golden Pill' is finally finished!"
Along with a voice full of tired joy, the figure who was sitting cross-legged finally stood up and turned his head.
At that moment, Chu Chen's eyes suddenly widened.
Stunning! Extremely stunning! What appeared in front of Chu Chen's eyes was a face that was so beautiful that it seemed to eclipse the world. It had slender eyebrows, phoenix eyes, cherry lips, and a beautiful nose. The face was exquisite and impeccable, as if it was carefully carved from smooth white jade.
Her cloud-like hair poured down like a waterfall, floating slightly behind her.
This is an unimaginably beautiful woman. Not only is she beautiful, she also has an extremely hot figure. Under the slender neck, which is as delicate as a swan, the plump breasts support an exaggerated arc. Further down, there is a slim waist, angry hips, and round and slender legs. Seriously, no matter which aspect you look at it, you can't find any faults.
Is this the spiritual elder? She actually... is such a young and beautiful woman
Chu Chen opened his mouth in surprise. In his concept, the so-called elders all have powerful magic and endless power. They must be the image of old people with immortal demeanor. But the woman in front of him has an extremely young appearance. She looks like she is in her twenties, a few years older than Chu Chen, and yet she has become an elder
"I've met Elder Lingxin!"
Senior Sister Qingyue next to her saw the elder finishing refining the medicine and quickly bowed and saluted. She turned around and saw Chu Chen still staring blankly at the elder, with a stunned expression on his face. She couldn't help but feel anxious and gave him a hard pull.
