Chapter 313: Master is Frightened by Me Again

"This is practically a Quasi-God Artifact!"

"Forget the Purple Peak Unification Shield; even a defensive treasure of the same top-tier venerable artifact rank could be severed with a single strike!"

Su Lang's eyes gleamed. This you tian sword would become one of his extremely powerful trump cards!

"Jie jie jie jie, this feels too good!"

The intense excitement made Su Lang unable to resist letting out a wild laugh.

After a long while, he finally calmed his emotions and stored the you tian sword and the Purple Peak Unification Shield into his storage space.

"Next, I'll go to Instructor An Xin to 'study' the Pill Refining Technique, and then scavenge high-level Alchemy Materials from the Pill Refining Tower to refine pills and sell them for money!"

With a smirk, Su Lang left his small courtyard and headed straight to An Xin's courtyard with light, brisk steps.

On the way, he had already contacted An Xin through his communication jade token; he was coming today to learn even more profound Alchemy techniques.

"Disciple, you arrived so quickly?"

An Xin, being a Martial King, had sensed Su Lang's arrival with her Mental Energy and immediately opened the courtyard gates.

"Respects to Master, your disciple has come to pay his respects."

Su Lang gave a mock-ceremonious bow with a smile on his face.

"Uh… hello, Disciple."

Looking at the beaming Su Lang, a trace of strangeness couldn't help but surface in An Xin's heart.

Ever since she taught Su Lang Alchemy scriptures last time, she had begun to doubt who was actually the instructor.

Moreover, not long ago, she had heard about Su Lang defeating Li Ming and crushing the entire 24th floor of the Pill Refining Tower in refining speed, before taking nearly two hundred thousand sets of Alchemy Materials into a refining room.

Now that Su Lang had appeared before her, didn't that mean those nearly two hundred thousand sets of Materials had already been used?

How long has it been? He finished refining everything!

Even though she also possessed the Ziwei Indefinite Fire, she simply couldn't achieve that method of condensing a Pill Furnace with a Special Fire to refine massive quantities of pills simultaneously!

Combining all these factors, An Xin even felt that Su Lang's Pill Refining Technique had already surpassed her own!

"Master, don't just stand there, let's go inside!"

Su Lang looked at the dazed An Xin and chuckled inwardly.

"Oh, come in quickly!"

An Xin snapped out of it and hurriedly ushered Su Lang inside.

Soon, the two arrived at the room where they had studied Alchemy last time.

Two prayer mats and a table; the layout was very minimalist.

"Last time we reached the Grade 8 Pill Refining Technique, and you mastered it all. This time, we'll study Grade 9."

As she spoke, An Xin took out some Grade 9 Alchemy scriptures and placed them on the table.

"Mm-hmm, okay!"

With a curl of his lip, Su Lang picked up the scriptures and began to flip through them.

Just like last time, he skimmed through the scriptures at ten lines a glance, and then he had 'learned' them all.

“Hiss! Like this again!?”

An Xin still couldn't help but be shocked.

Then, refusing to believe it, she tested him, only for Su Lang to easily answer every single one of her questions.

"This disciple's Alchemy talent is simply too terrifying!"

An Xin suppressed the waves of shock in her heart and took out the Grade 10 Alchemy scriptures.

"This time, it shouldn't be that fast, right!?"

Licking her lips, An Xin stared intently at Su Lang, watching him continuously flip through the pages.

"Is Master being frightened by me again? Forget it, I'll slow down!"

After noticing An Xin's strange behavior, Su Lang deliberately slowed his pace, taking over ten minutes to finish learning.

Afterward, he spent fifteen to twenty minutes on each Grade 10 Alchemy book.

He even raised questions from time to time, pretending he didn't understand.

Seeing that Su Lang finally had things he didn't understand, An Xin instantly found her sense of worth and began to explain things to him with great enthusiasm.

Time flowed slowly, and several hours passed in the blink of an eye.

"The last Grade 10 Alchemy scripture, finished!"

Su Lang retracted his gaze from the books and was about to tell An Xin that he had fully integrated the knowledge from the scriptures.

But at that moment, a System prompt suddenly rang out.

"Ding! The Sea of Cultivation is full. Do you wish to Breakthrough?"

Su Lang was stunned, a flash of surprise in his eyes. He mentally inquired, "System, if I choose not to Breakthrough, can the automatic cultivation still increase my cultivation base?"

Up until now, every time his Sea of Cultivation was full, Su Lang had broken through immediately.

He hadn't really thought about this question before.

Right now, he didn't really want to Breakthrough in front of An Xin to avoid having to waste words explaining, which is why he asked.

"Ding! host, if the Sea of Cultivation is full and you choose not to Breakthrough, your cultivation base will no longer increase!"
