Chapter 8

"Alright then." Bing Cheng truly regarded Bing Ranxue as a younger sister; ever since they met, they seemed to have never been apart.

While spending time with Bing Ranxue, Bing Cheng did not idle away; she would swallow Medicinal Pill to Cultivate while simultaneously starting the Pill Furnace for Alchemy, truly multitasking.

Bing Ranxue was easily satisfied, feeling that as long as she could stay with Bing Cheng, it was enough.

"Sister… I don't really want to stay here in the Taixuan Sect… Why don't we go out for training? I heard from the Senior at Longshou Peak that we are allowed to go out for training." Bing Ranxue clearly did not want to be restricted by the rules and regulations of the Taixuan Sect.

She missed the days of their leisurely life before with Bing Cheng.

Bing Cheng rubbed her cheeks. "Wait a while longer. Since we have just arrived at this Taixuan Sect, we must behave ourselves and stay for a while."

She also didn't like these days of always staying in the Sect; it was truly a situation where one had to be careful at every turn.

However, she had to first gain a foothold on this Wuming Peak; at the very least, having a background and a place to stay here in the Central Divine Region was necessary, right?

The Central Divine Region was not like the remote corners of the Southern Region, where the strongest Cultivator was only at the Soul Transformation stage.

The outside world was surely filled with experts, especially considering Bing Ranxue's identity. If they lacked the backing of the Taixuan Sect, she feared that once they reached the outside world, Bing Ranxue would be captured by other experts.

Anyway, there were many things to consider.

The solution to all this was to first establish a firm foothold in the Taixuan Sect; it would be best if she could obtain the status of an Inner Sect Disciple or a Core Disciple.

"Ranxue, does your Longshou Peak distinguish between inner and outer Sects?" Bing Cheng asked.

"It doesn't seem to have that. We all just move around freely on Longshou Peak; that group of Yao Beast does nothing but wander around or fight," Bing Ranxue said with a shrug.

"Isn't there a Master to teach you anything?" Bing Cheng wondered about the purpose of establishing Longshou Peak; could it be just to make up the number of peaks? However, the Mysterious Female Cultivator previously said she had found good teachers for both, so she shouldn't be lying.

"That Senior said I have a Master, who is also a True Dragon, but she is currently not within the Taixuan Sect… There is also a Master inside Longshou Peak specifically responsible for teaching us Yao Beast about human Spell… I think that's it," Bing Ranxue said adorably while holding her finger in her mouth.

Bing Cheng looked at Bing Ranxue like this and realized just how terrifying her own appearance was now.

She was a bit stunned, and couldn't help but plant a kiss on Bing Ranxue's cheek.

"Ah-la-la, does Sister want to eat Ranxue's dragon saliva?" Bing Ranxue said with a giggle.

"It's just that my Ranxue is too cute, so it's normal for a sister to kiss her younger sister's cheek, right?" Bing Cheng felt a bit awkward.

She immediately changed the subject. "Ranxue, do you have an identity token?"

"I do!" Upon hearing this, Bing Ranxue appeared a bit excited and took out a golden token. It was inlaid with many dazzling gemstones, with a lifelike Azure Dragon carved in the center, and below it were three vigorous characters.

Longshou Peak.

As the legends went, Dragons preferred such luxurious items.

Compared to Bing Cheng's ordinary identity token, it was a world of difference.

"It seems I thought too much before," Bing Cheng thought to herself; even the powerful Taixuan Sect valued Bing Ranxue, this True Dragon, quite highly.

When she previously communicated via voice transmission with Bing Ranxue, she saw that most of the creatures on Longshou Peak were of the flood dragon type.

Looking at it this way, the matter of going out of the Sect for training could be moved up; she just didn't know how things were on He Ruoxi's side.

Bing Cheng suddenly remembered that she still had many rare treasures, among which were some that Yao Beast could consume.

"Ranxue, these are Blood-Coagulating Fruits, a type of Spirit Medicine that can increase the Bloodline concentration of Yao Beast. I wonder if they are useful to you?" Bing Cheng took out a large pile of crystal-clear, blood-colored fruits, which vaguely emitted a scent of blood.

"We have these on Longshou Peak too, but they are refined into Medicinal Pill." A blood-red Medicinal Pill appeared in Bing Ranxue's hand, which contained a rich Bloodline Power.

"There is such a Medicinal Pill?" Bing Cheng was stunned; it seemed this was another information gap.

When she was in the Southern Region, the Pill Formula there were almost all for cultivation pills, Divine Soul pills, and some healing Medicinal Pill.

It seemed she was still a country bumpkin; Bing Cheng felt it was time to update her database. Perhaps, just like how she obtained the Ancient Array from the Strongest Cultivation Technique last time, she might even obtain an ancient Pill Formula.

After thinking about it, Bing Cheng decided to go to the Pill Pavilion to find Elder Zhong.

"Ranxue, you wait for me at the residence, Sister will be right back." Bing Cheng felt that since Bing Ranxue was not a Disciple of Wuming Peak, it wouldn't be good for her to wander around Wuming Peak.

"Mm-hmm." Bing Ranxue nodded obediently.

With a few teleports, Bing Cheng arrived in front of the Pill Pavilion on the mountainside.

On the mountainside, besides the Pill Pavilion, there were also the Artifact Pavilion, Talisman Pavilion, Formation Pavilion, and so on, but Bing Cheng would not expose those methods for now.

Entering the Pill Pavilion, she saw Elder Zhong dozing off again.

Elder Zhong sensed Bing Cheng's arrival and immediately opened his eyes.

"Little one, what brings you to the Pill Pavilion with leisure time today?" Elder Zhong said with a chuckle.

"Senior, this Junior has come this time to request some Pill Formula." Bing Cheng stated her purpose directly.

Elder Zhong was taken aback, then slapped his forehead. "Apologies, little one; last time, this old man forgot that you came from the Southern Region." Obviously, he also knew that the number of Pill Formula in that remote corner of the Southern Region was very small.

While speaking, Elder Zhong took out a thick tome.

"This contains most of the Pill Formula currently existing and circulating in the Central Divine Region, though the Legacy Pill Formula of various Sect forces are not recorded."

The tome was wrapped in spiritual power by him and handed to Bing Cheng.

After Bing Cheng casually flipped through a few pages, she felt an anomaly in her Sea of Consciousness.

Immediately, she knew it was stable.

"Many thanks, Senior." Just as Bing Cheng was about to take her leave, she was called back by Elder Zhong.

"Little one, don't be in such a hurry to leave. Tell this old man, if you use an Earth-grade Pill Furnace for Alchemy, how many Immortal-grade Medicinal Pill can you refine in one batch?"

Bing Cheng thought for a moment and replied, "About three."

Based on the Alchemy attainments she had previously revealed, she could produce one Immortal-grade pill in a batch using a Profound-grade Pill Furnace, so if she used an Earth-grade one, it should at least increase by a few, right?

"Good, take this Earth-grade Pill Furnace; from now on, you are a Core Disciple of my Pill Pavilion." Elder Zhong took out an Earth-grade Pill Furnace and handed it to Bing Cheng.

At the same time, Bing Cheng felt the identity token in her bosom tremble, and after probing with her Divine Sense, she discovered that there were twenty more symbols.

This action by Elder Zhong had been discussed by the Elders of the Pill Pavilion; after Senior Sister Dongfang He returned from exchanging Alchemy insights with Bing Cheng, he had informed the Elders of the Pill Pavilion about what he had seen.

The Elders of the Pill Pavilion also saw Bing Cheng's extraordinary nature.

A Genius walking out of the Southern Region could even suppress the Prodigy of the Central Divine Region; it was rare to see one such person appear in ten thousand years, so Bing Cheng was undoubtedly a child favored by Heaven.

"Uh… Elder Zhong, you think too highly of this Junior." Although Bing Cheng needed a relatively important status, this progress was truly too fast.

She had only joined a few days ago, and she had already obtained the status of a Core Disciple of the Pill Pavilion.

She estimated that many people would be eyeing her in the future.
