After transmigrating, I cultivated immortality by smelling the scent.

Chapter 237 After refining one batch, there's still one more to go.

Half a day later, Ye Xiaobai successfully completed the refining of the Condensing Essence Pill.

The Liu family was overjoyed and expressed their gratitude repeatedly, even wanting to invite Ye Xiaobai to stay a few more days so they could treat him to a proper meal.

Upon learning that Ye Xiaobai was not yet married, they immediately wanted to introduce a young woman from their clan to him.

Ye Xiaobai naturally refused, and hurriedly left, saying that the sect leader had something to discuss with him.

After finishing one batch, I quickly made my escape.

……

Lingyun Peak.

"What urgent matter does the Sect Master have for me?" Ye Xiaobai asked upon seeing Sect Master Mu Beifeng.

"Junior Brother Ye, don't play dumb. In recent years, your reputation as a master alchemist has spread throughout the sect, while the alchemists within the sect have limited skills."

"Everyone hopes to receive your guidance, and as the sect leader, I naturally hope that the overall alchemy level of the sect can be improved!"

"Therefore, we have been waiting for you to finish your seclusion so that you can share your alchemy experience with everyone."

"Oh, it's just sharing alchemy experience. That's no big deal." Ye Xiaobai had initially thought it would be something troublesome, but it was just sharing alchemy experience, which was a trivial matter for him.

"I knew Junior Brother would be easy to talk to. How about we hold an alchemy experience exchange conference at Spirit Pill Peak in three days?"

"No problem, that's fine, I'll head back now!" Ye Xiaobai was also afraid that if he stayed any longer, he might get into some trouble, so it was better to leave as soon as possible.

"Hey, junior brother, don't be in such a hurry. You two haven't seen each other for a long time. I was originally planning to have a drink with you and catch up, but seeing how anxious you are, I'll just talk about something else."

"Sect Master, please speak plainly about what you need to say."

“One of my distant nephews originally had average talent and no hope of forming a core, but he reached the late stage of the Foundation Establishment stage thanks to the massive resources accumulated within our family.”

"However, I heard that our White Tiger Sect has produced a master alchemist like you, so I asked you to refine a high-grade Qi Condensation Pill, hoping that the family can have another Core Formation stage cultivator."

"I didn't want to get involved in this matter at first, but the elders in the clan have been earnestly persuading me, so I have no choice. We're all from the same clan, so I can only trouble you!"

"Alright, I understand! I'll give it to you at the alchemy exchange conference in three days!" Ye Xiaobai said helplessly.

"Then I'll have to trouble you, junior brother!" Mu Beifeng breathed a sigh of relief after hearing Ye Xiaobai's agreement.

Ye Xiaobai had just taken the materials from Mu Beifeng and was about to leave when he suddenly remembered that he had forgotten his important matter—the region rich in lightning elements.

"Sect Master, I also have something I'd like to ask. Do you know of any areas in the nearby countries or regions that are rich in lightning element?"

"Isn't the Purple Forest Mountains, a place rich in lightning element, often known for its thunderous weather? Didn't you go there before?"

“The Purple Forest Mountains do indeed experience frequent thunderstorms, but the intensity of the lightning element there is still insufficient. I need to find a place with a much stronger lightning element.”

"I don't know for the moment, but don't worry, we'll have the disciples in all four directions of the sect stay behind. I'll let you know as soon as I have any news!"

"Then I'll have to trouble the sect leader!"

"We're all on the same side, no need to be so polite!"

After chatting for a few more minutes, Ye Xiaobai left.

Since even the sect leader doesn't know where there are areas rich in lightning element, Ye Xiaobai feels it's really hard to find in a short time, so he can only take it slowly.

Thinking about the alchemy exchange conference in three days and the Qi Condensation Pill he promised to refine for the sect leader, Ye Xiaobai had no interest in wandering around the sect, so he chose to return directly to his cave.

In a short while, just as they approached the cave, they smelled a familiar scent, and it was two people, none other than Xiao Lele and He Hongyu from Lingdan Peak.

"Senior Sister Xiao, it's been so many years! You're still as graceful as ever! Hongyu is also quite nice; she's matured a lot," Ye Xiaobai said with a smile.

He Hongyu blushed upon hearing this, while Xiao Lele chuckled and said, "Junior brother, you're getting old now, and you've started to become quite glib!"

"Let's go inside the cave and sit down to chat."

The three then went directly into Ye Xiaobai's cave.

The cave dwelling was extremely simple, containing only some daily necessities, and the colors were very monotonous, either blue or white.

After the two were seated, Ye Xiaobai quickly poured them some spiritual tea.

Seeing that the cave dwelling was extremely simple, Xiao Lele joked, "Junior Brother, this cave dwelling is almost the same as that of the outer disciples. Should I ask the alchemy department of Lingdan Peak to arrange a more spacious cave dwelling for you?"

"Senior sister, you're too kind. I'm used to it and won't trouble you any further. But judging from your tone, you've been doing quite well at Lingdan Peak these past few years!"

"He only manages a few alchemy rooms, which is far inferior to my junior brother. My junior brother is a renowned alchemy master who has cultivated in the Pill Tower!"

"Senior Sister, you flatter me! You brought Hongyu here today, surely you have something else to discuss?"

“Indeed, look at the genius disciple you gave me. He has only been cultivating for a short time, but his cultivation level has already surpassed mine. He is currently at the peak of the late Foundation Establishment stage and is about to form his core.”

"Then congratulations, Senior Sister, on training such an outstanding disciple!"

After Ye Xiaobai finished speaking, he turned to look at Hongyu and said, "Hongyu, you're quite good too. As your senior uncle, I don't have much to offer, so I'll just give you some experience and insights in alchemy!"

Upon hearing this, He Hongyu immediately stood up excitedly, accepted the jade slip containing the alchemy experience, and said gratefully, "Thank you, Uncle Ye!"

"Look, Junior Brother is too kind. I originally had something to ask of you, but since you've given Hongyu such a generous gift, I don't know what to say anymore!"

"Senior sister, there's no need to be so polite. We're all family here, so just say what's on your mind!"

"Then I'll be frank. It's like this: Hongyu, as you know, is exceptionally talented. She's only been cultivating for a short time, but she's already formed her core. Under normal circumstances, with her talent, forming her core shouldn't be a problem."

"However, I once read in an ancient book that if one can take a perfect-grade Qi Condensation Pill to form a Golden Core, there is a slight chance of forming a flawless Golden Core."

"In this way, not only will the cultivation speed double, but there will also be no bottleneck in advancing to the Nascent Soul stage."

"Now that my junior brother has reached the level of a master alchemist, I naturally want to ask for a perfect-grade Qi Condensation Pill for my beloved disciple!"

"Oh, Senior Sister, you're being too polite. Of course, I just entered the Spirit Pill Peak, and it was Senior Sister who guided me through the basics. If I wanted a Qi Condensation Pill, I wouldn't say a word of objection even if you asked for a hundred or a thousand!"

"However, I have never refined a perfect-grade Qi Condensation Pill before, and I am not entirely confident. If I fail, please forgive me, Senior Sister!"

"Yes, yes, it's because Senior Sister's requirements are too high. Perfect-grade pills are extremely difficult to refine, but top-grade ones are also acceptable! This way, the quality of the core formation can be higher, allowing Hongyu to go further in the future."

"Senior sister, don't worry. Although I'm not entirely confident, I'm still quite confident that I can refine a perfect-grade Qi Condensation Pill!"

"Then I'll have to trouble you, junior brother!"

"Senior sister, you don't need to be so polite. In three days, the sect leader will arrange for me to share my alchemy experience at Lingdan Peak. I'll bring you the pills then!"

"Okay, then I'll wait for my junior brother's good news!"

After seeing Xiao Lele and the other person off, Ye Xiaobai had just turned around to return to his cave to refine pills when a familiar fragrance wafted over – the unforgettable scent of apricot blossoms.

Ye Xiaobai naturally guessed who the person was.
