Qianqiu exclaimed happily: "This technique is nothing, but the alchemy methods and some experiences recorded in this jade slip are very useful to me. Who knows, maybe I'll have a chance to become a great master of alchemy too?"

  Ye Tianfan was also somewhat delighted, after all, these alchemy formulas not only related to whether he could become a great alchemy master, but more importantly, they could accelerate his understanding of the five elements, and his cultivation would definitely make rapid progress.

  Ye Tianfan was excited, but he knew this wasn't a place to stay for long. Who knows, maybe someone outside is already looking for them. So Ye Tianfan said: "Sister, let's leave quickly, we've been gone for so long, Master should be worried, and there's nothing good to stay here for."

  Xie Qianqiu nodded and said: "Alright, let's hurry up and get out of here. We can't tell whether it's day or night in this place, and we don't even know how much time has passed."

  So the two of them went back along the same road, but they didn't have to worry too much about danger anymore, so they didn't proceed in single file like before, but rather walked side by side.

  Before long, the two of them arrived at the entrance of this cave. The two of them flew up to the mountain from here. At this time, it was already a night with sparse stars, and according to the situation, the two of them had only been in the cave for one day.

  Ye Tianfan sighed: "This formation is really amazing, it actually has the effect of turning decay into magic, I have the opportunity to study it."

  Qianqiu sneered, "You're already struggling to learn alchemy, and now you want to learn other things? Do you think your talent is that good, that you can pick up anything easily? Moreover, this will only distract you, and in the end, you won't be able to master either one."

  Ye Tianfan was about to make excuses, but Xie Qianqiu continued: "However, if you really master the formation technique, you'll have a chance to become an equipment refiner. Equipment refiners are more popular and rarer than pill refiners in the Cultivation Realm."

  Ye Tianfan was immediately drawn in by Xie Qianqiu's words, and instead of making excuses, he asked: "Sister, what does the Refining Master have to do with the Array Method?"

  Xie Qianqiu looked at Ye Tianfan with a silly expression and said, "Haven't you heard? A formation master is not necessarily an artifact refiner, but an artifact refiner must be a formation master."

  Ye Tianfan shook his head upon hearing this. He didn't really understand these things and only had some vague impressions.

  Qianqiu said, "The reason for this is that when refining a spiritual instrument, one must carve an array on the instrument's embryo. The higher the quality of the material used, the more advanced the carved array will be, and the better the quality of the spiritual instrument will be. But to carve such an array, you need to know how to do it, right?"

  Ye Tianfan nodded silently, indicating that he understood. In his heart, however, he secretly made up his mind to master the formation technique and hopefully learn how to refine equipment as well.

  The two of them walked and chatted, soon they arrived at the foot of the mountain. Ye Tianfan said: "Let's tell Master about this tomorrow, it's so late that Master should have rested already."

  Xie Qianqiu nodded and said, "Alright then, let's part ways here. Remember to get up early tomorrow, or Master might blame us for not telling him until the second day about such a big thing."

  Ye Tianfan nodded in understanding, and the two of them went their separate ways to their respective residences. Ye Tianfan had also exhausted a lot of spiritual energy today, so he returned to his bedroom to rest as well.

  No words were exchanged that night, and the next morning, Ye Tianfan arrived at Master Dan Lao's residence. His senior sister seemed to have just arrived as well, and hadn't had a chance to speak yet. So after calling out to Master, Ye Tianfan didn't say anything else, clearly yielding this opportunity for merit to his senior sister.

  Qianqiu thanked and saw Ye Tianfan's appearance, so he knew what he was thinking. He also didn't pretend to be polite and said to Dan Lao: "Master, we found the relics left by the founder of our sect in the back mountain, including the method of meritorious deeds and many alchemy recipes, most importantly, there is also a map leading to the central star domain."

  "What, are there many alchemy recipes?" Dan Lao asked excitedly, clearly thinking that the alchemy recipes were the most important thing, and everything else was secondary.

  Seeing Master's appearance, Xie Qianqiu hastily handed over the Dan Fang in his hand to Master and said: "Master, everything is on the Jade Strip."

  Dan Lao hastily took over, his consciousness sank in and looked at it immediately. After a while, Dan Lao exclaimed excitedly: "With these alchemy formulas, my stagnant alchemy skills will definitely make great progress, and I may even have the opportunity to become a great alchemy master! It's really wonderful!"

  It's clear that Dan Lao is really excited, but this is normal. What could be more important for someone who has devoted their life to alchemy than making great progress in their alchemical techniques?

  Xie Qianqiu also chimed in, "I too have the opportunity to become a Dan-refining master, and when that time comes, I'll be an elder. Who knows, maybe I'll even have the chance to become the Great Dan-refining Master? What do you think, Master?"

  "Yes, yes, it's indeed possible." Although Dan Lao usually would have struck Xiao Qiu a few times by now, his next sentence was to strike Xiao Qiu once again.

  Dan Lao said: "With these alchemy formulas, your junior brother will almost certainly reach the realm of a great master of alchemy."

  As soon as this was said, Xie Qianqiu immediately pouted and looked somewhat unhappy, obviously displeased in her heart, but Master said it was a fact, and she couldn't say anything.

  "Is the sect going to hand over these jade slips?" Ye Tianfan asked, "If they do, it might greatly increase the sect's power, but unfortunately, it would also put the sect in a precarious position. On the other hand, not handing them over isn't ideal either, since this was originally left behind by the founding ancestor for the sect."

  Xie Qianqiu hastily said: "How can that be, if so, wouldn't I, a future top-grade alchemist, become worthless?" It's clear that Xie Qianqiu still attaches great importance to his status in the sect.

  Dan Lao did not respond to Xie Qianqiu's opposition, but instead thought about the pros and cons of it. However, Dan Lao still couldn't make up his mind, so he asked: "Tian Fan, do you have any thoughts on this?"

  Ye Tianfan saw Dan Lao asking questions, just wanted to answer, Xie Qiujiu had already clenched his fist and waved it up and down in front of his face, apparently warning Ye Tianfan not to talk.

  Ye Tianfan didn't want to offend his senior sister either, and it wasn't because she might not be able to find the two jade slips herself. So Ye Tianfan said: "I don't know what to do either, but we can call up a few of the most important people in our sect to discuss it and gather everyone's opinions. What does Master think?"

  As soon as this was said, Xie Qianqiu was a little angry, but didn't say anything. Dan Lao struck the table and said: "It's settled then, I'll go see the sect leader now and have him gather a few Peak Masters to discuss it together." After saying that, Dan Lao hastily left, looking like a decisive and efficient person.
