Chapter 1996 - 1996: Potion Sensation (1)
“Disciple, you’re here.” In the yard where Feng Qingxuan lived, a cup of hot tea was put on the table. Yun Feng and Qu Lanyi walked in. Feng Qingxuan raised his head and smiled at Yun Feng. Then, he rolled his eyes. “You’re here too.” He was quite cold to Qu Lanyi’s greeting.
Qu Lanyi didn’t care. Feng Qingxuan had never been warm to anyone except Yun Feng. In the eyes of this respected senior, only his only disciple could make him smile.
“Master, is there any news on the map?” Yun Feng walked over and sat down in the place Feng Qingxuan indicated. Feng Qingxuan smiled casually. “I’m not very smart anymore. I’m afraid I can’t help you much on this map. I’ve compared the remaining memories of the past with this map carefully and found nothing useful. The place drawn on this map existed a long time ago.
This place probably changed when I was active.”
“So, the elders of the Naxi family won’t know where we are.” Qu Lanyi frowned. Feng Qingxuan nodded solemnly. “Indeed. If there are older people in this world, they might be able to help you. However… it’s unlikely that such old guys will appear again.”
Yun Feng frowned. So, could it be that the news of the Lightning Seed was interrupted here? Among the people and Magic Beasts she knew, Magic Beasts certainly had a longer lifespan. The oldest were the Fantastical Beasts. However, the Fantastical Beasts lived in the Beast Region. With rules, they couldn’t enter and leave the Beast Region casually, so they certainly weren’t familiar with the changes in the terrain of the current world.
“This is a bit difficult.” Qu Lanyi frowned. “Unless they show up themselves, we won’t be able to find such old guys. Besides, is it really possible for someone older than Senior Feng to survive in this world?”
Feng Qingxuan frowned. “Don’t underestimate the desire of humans for immortality. The stronger they are, the more they want to be immortal. It’s what all powerhouses do. I’m no exception.” Feng Qingxuan sneered. “However, immortality doesn’t exist in this world. No matter how long they live, they’ll be destroyed one day. That’s the simplest logic, and the most difficult for these powerhouses to understand.”
“The elders of the four families don’t know about it. We can only see if there are any Seniors who have survived until now. There’s definitely not a high chance of success if we take the initiative to search for them. The only thing we can do is to lure them out.” Yun Feng frowned and pondered. Qu Lanyi then whispered, “To lure these old guys out, we can only show them what they need in their minds.”
Things they needed? Yun Feng and Qu Lanyi’s eyes glittered. Feng Qingxuan said casually, “If they can really survive until now, nothing can attract them more than eternal life.”
“Senior Feng is right. Those who can survive until now will definitely pursue a longer life!”
“Disciple, I’ve never asked you. I’m afraid you’ve already reached the
Grandmaster Level.” Feng Qingxuan smiled. Everything was as he expected.
Yun Feng smiled casually. “I’m not talented. I’ve just reached the Grandmaster
Level. ‘
Feng Qingxuan burst into laughter. “There’s no Grandmaster Level expert at your age! You’re unprecedented! That’s right!” Feng Qingxuan had never been stingy with his compliments for Yun Feng. Feng Qingxuan wasn’t like this in the past. However, after experiencing so much and settling down, Feng Qingxuan had already changed his mind. He wouldn’t have been able to sit here calmly and give Yun Feng so much help if he hadn’t changed.
Yun Feng was too embarrassed to smile, but Qu Lanyi was a bit shocked. The Grandmaster Level? “That’s the highest level of the pharmaceutical level, right?”
Feng Qingxuan raised his brows. “Kid, who told you that the Grandmaster Level is the highest level of making medicine?”
“Is there anyone above the Grandmaster Level?” Qu Lanyi had never dabbled in pharmaceuticals. The highest level he had heard of was only the Grandmaster Level. There were probably not many grandmaster-level pharmacists!
“As far as I know, there are less than five Grandmaster Level pharmacists.
They’re all in the Pharmacists’ Union. I’ve never heard ot any pharmacists above the Grandmaster Level,” said Yun Feng as she looked at Feng Qingxuan with glittering black eyes. If she was right, her master should be above the Grandmaster Level in pharmaceuticals!
“Disciple, it’s already not easy for you to reach the Grandmaster Level right now. Your talent in potions is also incomparable. Even though I’m proud of you, I don’t want you to stop here. The Grandmaster Level isn’t the top of the pharmaceutical world. There’s another level above the Grandmaster Level, called the Zen Master.”
“The Zen Master Level?” This was the first time Qu Lanyi heard that. “Senior
Feng, are you… the Zen Master Level?”
Feng Qingxuan snorted. “Kid, do you really think I have nothing to do here?” Qu Lanyi was a bit embarrassed. “That’s not what I meant… I’m just surprised…”
“What’s there to be surprised about? I was already at the Grandmaster Level before I was trapped in the Beast Region. It’s been so long. If I still haven’t reached the Zen Master Level, won’t I make others laugh their heads off?”
Qu Lanyi curled his lips. It was definitely better not to say anything. Senior
Feng was truly rude to the others. Yun Feng looked surprised. “The Zen Master Level! Master’s pharmaceutical ability should be the best right now! ”
Feng Qingxuan shook his head. “I don’t know how the pharmaceutical world is right now. In the era when I was active, there were pharmacists at the level of a Zen Master. However, as time passed, they died. Most pharmacists weren’t strong to begin with. It was a very difficult process to achieve a win-win situation in terms of strength and potions. I could enter the level of a Zen Master because I abandoned my strength and focused on this.”
Yun Feng nodded. It wasn’t so simple to do multiple jobs at the same time. She had to do each identity well and reach an unimaginable height. Single tasks were fine, but if she did all of them, she would have to spend unimaginable energy! Yun Feng’s way of making medicine was different from ordinary methods. She took a shortcut and avoided the long and complicated process. If Yun Feng was like the others, she probably wouldn’t have the energy to reach the Grandmaster Level at all..
