C45 Pills

Returning back to his residence, he greeted Zhou Xuan before Gu Tianchen entered her own residence.

With regards to Su Lan Yuan taking note of his cultivation resources, Gu Tianchen didn't say much. Firstly, he didn't want Zhou Xuan to worry about him, and secondly, Gu Tianchen felt that it was better if he remembered this kind of thing in his heart.

Once his strength had risen, he would be able to personally take care of Zhou Tianyuan and Zhou Qingshan. That was the way the Old Devil Tianchen handled things.

"Little Black, I'm sorry. This time, there's only this much junk food. Why don't you grind your teeth?"

Putting the bag of spirit stones on the table, Gu Tianchen released the Spring and Autumn Gu that was in between his brows. The small Gu seemed to not be interested in these 100 low rank spirit stones, and after searching for a long time, he only absorbed 2 or 3 spirit stones worth of spirit energy.

Seeing that, Gu Tianchen could not help but sigh, then took the Spring and Autumn Gu back into his own body.

"Since Xiaohei doesn't like to eat junk food, I'll have to refine these spirit stones myself!"

A Gu Master's cultivation can be divided into two ways.

The first was to nurture a Gu, and when the Gu becomes stronger, it will feed back the Gu Master that refined it. At that time, the Gu Master would not need to cultivate hard, and he would still be able to obtain a strong cultivation base.

Second, Gu Masters could cultivate, and when their cultivation level increases, they could feed back the Gu worms. Similarly, Gu worms didn't need to absorb much energy, they could both complete the advancement and increase the Gu Master's overall strength.

Of course, these two methods had their pros and cons.

Cultivating Gu worms required many high quality spiritual materials, such as heavenly materials, treasures, elixirs, elixirs, and top quality spirit stones.

These spirit materials, to low rank Gu Masters, were hard to obtain without the support of a huge family or force behind them.

Thus, although the method of raising a Gu worm was pure for raising one's strength, due to the restrictions of many conditions, there were not many Gu Masters who chose this method.

As for cultivating one's own body, this method was much simpler. Whether it was low grade spirit stones, normal pills, or low grade spirit materials, as long as it could raise a Gu Master's cultivation, it could be used to cultivate one's own body.

The only drawback was this method of cultivation. Gu Masters would absorb a lot of external impurities, such as the minerals in low grade spirit stones, the medicinal dregs in normal pills, and the poison in low grade spirit materials.

This way, the Gu Master's cultivation level would be impure, and if it was fed back to the Gu in their body, it could cause their cultivation level to drop by a huge amount.

For example, a Rank three Gu Master, because they absorbed too much of the external impurities, their cultivation was not pure, and when they returned the energy to the Gu worms, because their primeval essence was not pure enough, they absorbed too much of the primeval essence, and after the Gu worms finished absorbing it, their own cultivation dropped to the realm of Rank two Gu Master.

This kind of example has happened several times in the history of cultivation for a Gu Master!

In short, cultivating a Gu worm was too difficult, and the risk to one's cultivation was too high.

Of course, this was only true for ordinary Gu Masters.

However, for Gu Tianchen who possessed the Spring and Autumn Ten Thousand Life Gu, which was one of the tens of thousands in the universe, other than cultivation resources, these problems would not be a problem.

"This amount of low-grade spirit stones should only be enough for me to recover from my injuries!"

Gu Tianchen looked at the hundred spirit stones on the table that were of the worst quality, and hated Zhou Tianyuan to the bones in his heart.

But her cultivation was too low right now, so Gu Tianchen could only endure and wait, he had no other choice.

After thinking about it, Gu Tianchen kept his thoughts and started refining the Spirit Stone on the table.

After a while, the piece of low grade spirit stone was turned into powder by Gu Tianchen.

After the tiny amount of spirit energy within the spirit stone was absorbed by Gu Tianchen's body, it was transformed by the Spring and Autumn Gu into an extremely pure vital force, which returned back to Gu Tianchen's body.

After a while, Gu Tianchen could feel that the injuries in his body had recovered slightly.

"It's still too slow." After he muttered with some dissatisfaction, Gu Tianchen grabbed ten spirit stones and activated the True Essence in his body to absorb them all at once.

Time passed. In the blink of an eye, two hours had gone by.

If these spirit stones were refined by the Spring and Autumn Gu, it would probably only take fifteen minutes to turn them into powder. However, if Gu Tianchen refined it himself, he still had more than ten spirit stones left.

During this time, Zhou Xuan came in and asked Gu Tianchen to eat.

But when he saw that Gu Tianchen was at the critical point of his training, Zhou Xuan silently closed the door and did not disturb Gu Tianchen any longer.

After another incense worth of time had passed, Gu Tianchen let out a long breath of foul air, and finally finished refining all the remaining spirit stones.

"My injuries are finally almost healed. I don't know if that old fogey Li Long has finished refining my pills yet, but I think I should break through as soon as possible!"

Gu Tianchen opened his eyes, and a glint seemed to flash past his eyes. He then stood up, and after a simple wash up, Gu Tianchen finished his lunch, and walked towards the danta.

Not long after, after Gu Tianchen forgave a few rounds, he finally arrived at the danta.

"Young master, long time no see!"

The maid that came out to receive Gu Tianchen was the one that he had previously saved.

But because of Gu Tianchen, after that incident, not only did Li Long personally apologize to him, he also apologized to everyone. Qiu Han's position in the danta not only did not decrease, it had actually increased by a lot.

Seeing that his benefactor was knocking on his door, Qiu Han was overjoyed, and took the initiative to welcome him.

"Hehe, I wonder if Grandmaster Li Long is around?" Gu Tianchen laughed and said, he felt that Qiu Han's appearance was not bad, although it was not as good as Zhou Mingyue's, but she could still be considered as a middle-aged lady, so he could not help but take a few more glances.

"Master Li and young master really share the same mind. Today, he has already informed young master that he might come visit our danta and thus has been waiting for young master inside the inner room!"

Qiu Han covered her mouth and laughed, instantly becoming extremely enchanting, and her gaze towards Gu Tianchen was filled with a trace of inexplicable meaning.

Just as he finished speaking, an old man walked out from within. It was Li Long, whom he had not seen for a few days.

It was just that the ruthless and deathly aura on Li Long's face had disappeared quite a bit today. It looks like he had indeed taken Gu Tianchen's suggestion to obediently recuperate his body for a while.

"Hahaha, Master, Li Long has been waiting for you for a long time!"

When Li Long suddenly appeared, he could not hold back and laughed out loud, walking to Gu Tianchen and speaking humbly.

This scene caused those who did not know of Gu Tianchen's origins to be secretly shocked.

Since when did a Tier 3 alchemist become so humble to a little kid?

Everyone was confused, only the clan disciples who recognized Gu Tianchen exclaimed secretly, and could not help but whisper to each other at the side.
