Chapter 491: Eight Tier Nourishment Pill Formula Acquired!
Song Qing wanting to tag along was one thing, but bringing up their previous alchemy discussion on purpose?
Wasn't that just making Wu Tian think they met up often?
Both women's expressions darkened this Song Qing was going too far.
"Haha, Brother Song Qing, since you all wish to discuss alchemy, please continue! High tier pills aren't my specialty. I happen to have matters to attend to, so I'll take my leave."
Wu Tian glanced at Song Qing, smiled slightly, and turned away.
Just like that, he completely dismissed his earlier agreement.
You want to interfere, Song Qing?
Fine, I'll let you succeed let's see how you handle the aftermath!
As Wu Tian walked away, Cao Ying and Dan Chen's faces turned pale Song Qing was beyond disgusting.
Without a second thought, the two waved their sleeves and chased after Wu Tian, completely ignoring Song Qing.
"Ying'er! Ying'er~~~"
Song Qing called after her like a desperate puppy, his voice growing more pitiful by the second.
But the louder he called, the more repulsed she felt.
"Song Qing, get lost! I never want to see you again!"
Cao Ying's personality was unpredictable, and even though she usually tolerated Song Qing, she had no mercy now.
Her icy voice was laced with disgust.
"Your actions are revolting! You disgrace the title of the Great Elder's disciple!"
Without another word, she turned and left.
Beside her, Dan Chen lowered her gaze slightly and whispered:
"Disgusting."
Song Qing: "..."
What did I do?
I barely said anything!
How did I suddenly become disgusting?!
Song Qing was only trying to disrupt things. How did it backfire like this?!
He only wanted to talk about alchemy how did that make him disgusting?!
Wu Tian!
He must have twisted things between me and Ying'er, making her resent me so he could take advantage of her!
No way!
I have to protect Ying'er before that beast Wu Tian does something to her… or worse, both her and Dan Chen!
As Song Qing's mind spiraled into paranoia, he stubbornly chased after them.
Wu Tian, sensing the persistent presence behind him, sighed internally.
How did I end up with this annoying tail?
Forget recruiting disciples even talking in peace was impossible now…
"Miss Cao Ying, Miss Dan Chen, I think we should meet another time. There are still seven days until the Pill Gathering, and we'll all be in Pill Tower. We'll have plenty of chances."
Wu Tian stopped, turned to them, and smiled gently.
"That's true… very well! Wu Tian, Dan Chen and I will be looking forward to it."
Cao Ying and Dan Chen smiled warmly, though their eyes flickered with frustration no matter what, they just couldn't shake off Song Qing!
With no other choice, the group parted ways…
As Song Qing watched Cao Ying's clear interest in Wu Tian, a cold glint flashed in his eyes.
For years, he had already claimed Cao Ying as his a treasure that belonged only to him.
If any man dared to touch what was his, he would crush them.
Even if that person was Wu Tian, the disciple that Xuan Kong Zi held in high regard.
"Wu Tian… just you wait!"
Song Qing stared murderously at Wu Tian's fading figure.
"My dear protector, you've managed to attract another jealous fool."
Cai Lin's seductive voice echoed in Wu Tian's mind.
Wu Tian sighed helplessly.
"Cai Lin, you should understand being too outstanding is a hassle. I keep attracting petty enemies without even trying!"
He shrugged, feigning helplessness.
"Tsk, tsk~ You? Outstanding? Please, you belong to me alone, my dear protector."
Cai Lin rolled her eyes playfully.
Wu Tian grinned mischievously.
"Cai Lin, the formula is finally in my hands! The Eight Tier Nourishment Pill now all that's left is refining it. I have a huge surprise for you!"
He excitedly took out the ring containing the pill formula.
"Pfft~"
Even the cold and noble Cai Lin couldn't help but smile joyfully.
"Look at you acting like a child when you're a powerful leader and a soon to be father."
Wu Tian chuckled.
"It's because of you and our baby that I'm so happy! I can't wait to meet her!"
Cai Lin huffed softly.
"Hmph! You're impatient, aren't you? Yet every time, you…"
Her voice trailed off, her cheeks reddening slightly.
"Listen, if our baby isn't perfectly healthy, I won't forgive you!"
Wu Tian immediately nodded obediently.
"Yes, yes~ My queen's command is absolute!"
At times, he regretted his actions…
But then nighttime came, and all reason vanished.
"Let's head to our residence and check the required ingredients. Why didn't Xuan Kong Zi include the materials?"
Wu Tian checked the contents of the ring and grumbled.
Xuan Kong Zi would have fainted in anger if he heard that.
"You want everything?! The pill formula wasn't enough?! Ingredients are expensive you're supposed to trade for them!"
But alas, before Xuan Kong Zi could negotiate, they were rudely interrupted by Cao Ying, Dan Chen… and that annoying Song Qing.
Wu Tian didn't wander around Pill Tower but instead headed straight to his residence, assigned by Elder Sheng.
Along the way, people glanced curiously at him, but none recognized him.
However, seeing his grinning, self talking behavior, they mistook him for a young alchemy genius driven mad by a failed experiment.
Upon arriving at his quarters, Wu Tian shut himself in his room, sat cross legged on his bed, and pulled out a scroll from the ring.
But this wasn't the Soul Hand Seal it was the formula for the Eight Tier "Imperial Soul Blood Fusion Pill"!
As an Eight Tier Pill, its ingredient list was overwhelming even more complex than the Fire Bodhisattva Pill from the Burning Flame Valley.
Most of the basic herbs were available in Cai Lin's treasury, but…
Several key ingredients were completely unfamiliar.
If Cai Lin's faction didn't have them, Pill Tower surely did.
And since he was participating in the Pill Gathering, it was only fair for Pill Tower to contribute some resources.
Xuan Kong Zi: "Shameless! Absolutely shameless!"
After reviewing the formula, Wu Tian pulled out another scroll this one contained a soul technique even stronger than the Soul Hand Seal.
Soul Finger.
A technique capable of piercing souls with a single strike.
But… its most powerful attack required using the middle finger.
Wu Tian's expression stiffened.
"…Well, that's unfortunate."
Still, he practiced it regardless.
As he focused on training his soul techniques, a mysterious voice echoed in his mind:
"The pinnacle of the soul… the divine gate remains sealed… absorb and temper the spirit…"
Deep in his training, Wu Tian remained unaware that the outside world was in complete turmoil because of him!
