325: Chapter 283 325: Chapter 283 This is why the resources of a great Sect are not as good as those of the Ten Great Clans,, it could be said to be a bit better than an average Immortal Sect, otherwise he wouldn’t have ended up as a mere Servant Disciple, the lowest level of disciple, and endured three years within the Sect.
That was the price of his youth,, how many three-year periods does one have in their life?
In the Cultivation World, a person like him with his current level of cultivation could possibly live for over 2000 years, and that’s with the inclusion of eating lifespan-extending fruits.
Those present in the room who saw the herbs Jiang Tang put into the Alchemy Furnace, although they were the same herbs they used, seemed to exude a much richer spiritual energy when sniffed.
Jiang Tang tossed the herbs into the Pill Furnace and began to move his hands in a specific technique,, this was the slowest speed, indeed his foundation when he first started alchemy, but even this foundation was from a Secret Manual produced by his space.
He propelled streams of spiritual energy into the Alchemy Furnace, with his eyes closed his hands continued to move,, his Divine Sense already able to feel the herbs within the furnace transforming into liquid.
He released more streams of spiritual energy along with techniques,, even though he had slowed down the movements, they were still dazzling to behold.
The Eldest Senior Brother and the others initially looked down on Jiang Tang, thinking he was just boasting.
But beneath his movements, even those who had never seen these techniques before could tell they were formidable.
The Eldest Senior Brother and the disciples went from initial disdain to seriousness,, their eyes fixed intently on Jiang Tang, not blinking, fearful of missing a single technique.
Jiang Tang felt the liquid inside the Alchemy Furnace begin to solidify,, his hands moved through several more techniques, and the liquid inside the furnace slowly solidified into Pills.
A confident smile appeared on Jiang Tang’s lips,, a smile that he often carried.
Everyone watched Jiang Tang intently,, seeing him smack the Alchemy Furnace, which opened its lid and ten high-grade pills flew out from inside.
Those in the Alchemy Room all opened their mouths wide in disbelief as Jiang Tang placed the ten Spirit Supplement Pills into a jade bottle.
Jiang Tang usually didn’t exert so much effort to teach alchemy, to produce five Supreme Elixirs was already the capability of this ordinary Pill Furnace, and with his intentional slowing of movements and the use of common flame, to be able to produce ten pills was a sign that his Alchemy Skill was improving.
The techniques he had shown these people were indeed the basics he learned at the start,, unlike the techniques he now used to create Supreme Elixirs.
He wasn’t foolish enough to teach his disciples all his skills and risk starving as a mentor,, he would never do such a thing.
To even teach these people advanced Alchemy was generous enough,, it was only because he once belonged to the Immortal Sect.
If it weren’t for that, considering their earlier scorn, he would have turned on his heel and left,, uninterested in the empty title of Elder.
“Elder, you are really incredible,” the first to regain composure was the disciple guarding the door,, clapping his hands.
The other disciples, impressed, couldn’t help but join in the applause,, even the Eldest Senior Brother’s anger had faded, as they recognized that Jiang Tang’s alchemy surpassed theirs.
No matter whether the Elder only taught them the basic foundation or had already passed on his most advanced skills,, this person was undoubtedly more skilled than they were.
The Eldest Senior Brother was unable to improve his Alchemy Skill and had always assumed it was due to insufficient Cultivation.
After seeing the techniques Jiang Tang used,, he realized it was the techniques that were at fault, not that their current techniques were inadequate, but that they lacked more advanced ones.
The Eldest Senior Brother, disregarding flattery like the others, was already recording Jiang Tang’s alchemy techniques in his mind,, eager to practice them on his own.
He wanted to see if his Alchemy Skill would improve after learning these techniques?
The Alchemy he knew from the past, even during the peak of his crafting when he was at his best, usually resulted in a furnace with at most one or two high-grade pills, sometimes only achieving middle or low-grade ones, and if luck was poor, the furnace might explode.
This time, while practicing, he wasted a lot of herbs by spoiling various new pills.
The Eldest Senior Brother silently practiced Alchemy,, using the techniques the Elder taught.
The other disciples weren’t idle either,, they each found an empty Alchemy Furnace and put into practice the Alchemy techniques they had learned.
Jiang Tang stood there, his gaze upon them as they practiced Alchemy,, even though he had slowed down his speed, their Alchemy speed could not compare.
Yet learning his techniques was correct,, they managed to craft a furnace full of pills,, and although they didn’t produce as many high-grade pills as Jiang Tang did, even having one or two high-grade pills represented an improvement in their Alchemy Skill.
“Haha, I can also make high-grade pills now,” the disciple guarding the door was the happiest,, when had a guardian like him ever managed to craft a high-grade pill before?
He was just a disciple guarding the gate, and his alchemy skills were learned from the Scripture Pavilion.
In order to learn alchemy, he spent all the money he earned on renting the Alchemy Room and buying Spirit Grass.
The guardian was so happy, the other disciples were also joyful, following suit and dancing along.
The eldest senior brother was also pleased, yet for the sake of his dignity, he dared not express his gratitude to Jiang Tang.
“Alright, continue your training!
I’ll leave this place to you.”
Jiang Tang felt that having achieved his goal, he had fulfilled his responsibilities.
He had helped all that he could, and from then on, how they would perform?
That was entirely up to them, whether they could grow and strengthen themselves was also entirely up to them.
After leaving the Alchemy Room, Jiang Tang didn’t return to the Elder’s house, but instead headed towards Refining Artifacts Peak.
The sliver of Divine Sense he left in Yan Weiwei’s courtyard felt Yan Weiwei and Cai Xiangxiang coming out of their rooms.
Jiang Tang went to the girls’ courtyard, wanting to drink with them again and chat.
As Jiang Tang walked, he no longer needed to use his previous footwork.
Though magic artifacts were not allowed in the Immortal Sect, he had the ability to walk as if on the wing, arriving at the entrance of Yan Weiwei’s courtyard at Refining Artifacts Peak in a few bounds.
The fellow disciples who were patrolling around Yan Weiwei’s courtyard, on seeing Jiang Tang visit again, glared at him but dared not say anything, feeling that this person had become even more mysterious and seemed to have increased his cultivation again.
This was an intuition of cultivators; in the Cultivation World where the strong are revered, who would dare to utter a word of dissent?
Daring to disrespect an Elder with high cultivation would mean ruining their future prospects.
No matter whether he was an Elder of this particular peak, he was still an Elder.
Disrespecting an elder was asking to be punched.
Jiang Tang, indifferent to the anger yet silent curses from these men, entered Yan Weiwei’s courtyard with integrity, right in front of them.
Yan Weiwei and Cai Xiangxiang were in the living room.
Cai Xiangxiang had gone into the kitchen after coming out and prepared a great meal, already placing it on the table.
The two of them didn’t start eating immediately; they believed Jiang Tang would surely come again, but just to be safe, they still sent out a message.
“Are you two beauties waiting for me to eat?”
“Jiang Tang, Cai Xiangxiang has made a big meal again, waiting for you to come and eat with us.”
“Oh, Cai Xiangxiang’s cooking skills are not bad, this meat smells so good.
Can you make more of this kind of meat?”
“Jiang Tang, isn’t there enough food for us this time?
There’s still more in the kitchen.
I prepared so much meat beforehand, did you eat it, or did someone else come in?”
“Hehe, Elder sister Yan knows, I have a pet, and my pet said the big meal you made is delicious and insisted that I bring some for it.
Moreover, it has a big appetite, it can gulp down so much meat in one go.”
“Jiang Tang, is it that same little bird from earlier?
How did it become so gluttonous?”
“Yes, it’s that little bird.
Now that it has grown up, it’s eating too much.”
After finishing his sentence, Jiang Tang picked up his chopsticks to eat, seeing Eryao drooling over the meal outside in the space, but remembering that Jiang Tang had brought food back into the space earlier, so it wasn’t just for him alone.
Now, being considered a glutton by the beauties, Eryao couldn’t help but glare at Green Ox.
Green Ox was also looking out at the feast, saliva dripping from the desire for the enticing aroma, oblivious to Eryao’s glaring.
“Mmm, delicious, the beauties’ cooking skills have improved,” Jiang Tang said after tasting a piece of meat and finding it extremely tasty.
“Jiang Tang, I have a name, can you not keep calling me ‘beauty’?”
“I like calling you beauties, and indeed you are beauties, hehe.”
“Jiang Tang, with a mouth as sweet as yours, it’s no wonder so many girls like you.
You can’t get any sweeter, or it will cause even more beauties to fall for you.”
Yan Weiwei joined in with the joke.
