First Immortal of Destiny

Chapter 106: Zhao Lingyin

Listening to the words of these alchemists, it seems that Zhao Lingyin, who left many alchemy records on the alchemy stele, is a renowned alchemy genius?

"I have never heard of this person."

Shen Mo muttered to himself with a self-deprecating smile.

In fact, not only had he never heard of Zhao Lingyin's name, he didn't even know who the strongest young genius among the disciples of the Linjiang Sect was.

Even the name and appearance of the Sect Master of the Linjiang Sect were unknown to him.

During the outer disciple stage, he had very limited exposure and a narrow field of vision.

And during this period of time after entering the inner sect, Shen Mo was either practicing and preparing for battles or experiencing secret realms.

He was indeed quite ignorant about the internal affairs of the sect.

"May I ask, senior brothers, is Sister Lingyin very strong?"

Shen Mo pushed through the crowd and asked a question that surprised and mocked everyone.

"A new alchemist?"

Among the crowd, a handsome alchemist in white robes smiled and said, "You don't even know Sister Lingyin?"

"Three years ago, she was brought to the Spirit Gathering Peak by Mr. Wu and became his only successor. It caused quite a sensation."

Three years ago?

Shen Mo heard this and shook his head with a bitter smile. "I really haven't heard of it."

At that time, he had not yet crossed over. The original owner of his body was guarding the mountain gate in the outer region, struggling hard for a bit of cultivation resources. At most, he only knew about some influential figures in the outer region.

For example, Lu Xu, Xu Longxiang, and other talented disciples in the outer region.

He had no contact with the true geniuses of the Linjiang Sect's inner sect.

After all, even the outer disciples were not allowed to enter many formal areas of the Linjiang Sect.

The outer and inner sects were like two completely different worlds.

"I hope you senior brothers can enlighten me."

He didn't care about the mocking expressions of others, but earnestly asked for information about the alchemy domain of the Linjiang Sect.

Most of these alchemist senior brothers had a certain temperament. Although they seemed a bit showy, they didn't mind his many questions. They answered one by one about the situation in the alchemy domain of the Linjiang Sect.

According to their words, Shen Mo roughly understood the detailed situation of the alchemy domain.

There were more than two hundred alchemists in the Linjiang Sect.

Most of these alchemists were cultivated by the sect, registered and known as disciples of the Linjiang Sect.

But there were also some alchemists, especially high-level ones, who were not official members of the Linjiang Sect.

Instead, they practiced in the Linjiang Sect as guest alchemists, enjoying a large supply of resources from the sect every month.

Of course, they would also contribute occasionally, refining pills for the sect and handling some alchemy affairs.

Currently, the only fourth-grade alchemist in the Linjiang Sect, Mr. Wu, was such a guest alchemist.

Countless alchemists in the Linjiang Sect wanted to become his disciples and receive his guidance on alchemy difficulties.

But Mr. Wu never easily gave guidance to others. He even rarely showed himself outside the Spirit Gathering Peak.

However, three years ago, he brought back a sixteen-year-old girl from an ordinary cultivation family in the mortal world and accepted her as his disciple.

This matter caused quite a stir in the alchemy domain.

But soon, everyone discovered that this disciple accepted by Mr. Wu was indeed extraordinary.

When she first entered the alchemy domain, this girl had no knowledge of medicinal principles and was completely ignorant of alchemy.

But in just one year, she was able to successfully refine second-grade spirit pills and even began to test her alchemy abilities in the alchemy tower, continuously breaking multiple records.

In the following two years, Zhao Lingyin's performance was even more astonishing. She quickly advanced to the ranks of second-grade alchemists and could stably refine third-grade pills.

Moreover, during this period, she would come down from the mountain to the alchemy tower to refine pills every once in a while.

Every time, she would break the records of several types of pills.

With such terrifying alchemy talent, she not only obtained many rewards from the tower spirit but also completely overshadowed the names of the alchemist disciples on the alchemy stele, gaining great fame in the alchemy domain.

Before her, the most recognized young genius in the Dan Realm was Senior Brother Liu Yuan.

He reached the level of a third-grade alchemist at the age of thirty, with the prospect of advancing to the fourth grade in the future.

But now, looking at Zhao Lingyin's momentum, it is feared that she will have the opportunity to become a third-grade alchemist at the age of around twenty, and her reputation has already surpassed Liu Yuan, becoming the recognized number one genius in the Dan Realm of the Linjiang Sect.

"The number one genius?" Shen Mo heard this information and gained a rough understanding of the situation in the Dan Realm.

A fourth-grade alchemist is the highest standard in the Linjiang Sect.

Except for Wu Keqing.

And there are only eight third-grade alchemists in total.

As for second-grade alchemists, although there are quite a few, most of them are over fifty years old, and their potential in this lifetime is already visible, with no hope of promotion.

Alchemists like Shen Mo, who are of this age, are basically hovering at the first-grade level.

After all, alchemy requires a lot of accumulated practice to have a chance to advance.

"Based on my current situation, even in the Dan Realm, I can be considered outstanding."

Although Shen Mo has not yet reached the level of a second-grade alchemist, he believes that this day will not be too late.

He only needs to spend some time focusing on alchemy, and it is enough to fill up the remaining experience points.

To reach the level of a second-grade alchemist before the age of thirty is already rare within the sect.

Of course, there may be a gap between him and the alchemy prodigies mentioned by these alchemists, such as Zhao Lingyin and Liu Yuan.

But this gap is not insurmountable.

The main reason is that Shen Mo started practicing alchemy too late and only opened the Destiny Panel half a year ago.

If his vision is extended to the next ten or twenty years, he is confident that he can catch up with or even surpass these people.

"Just relying on the experience point function of the Destiny Panel gives me the confidence and courage to catch up with geniuses. Moreover, I can also accelerate my progress by extracting destiny and promoting my foundation."

With this thought, he became more confident in his future path to immortality.

However...

"Senior Brother, I heard you say just now that if I participate in the trial in the Dan Tower and break the records on the alchemy stele, I can get rewards?"

"That's right."

"The Dan Tower is an item left by the Alchemy Alliance, specifically used to communicate with alchemists from all over the cultivation world and cultivate and encourage alchemy geniuses."

"If you have the ability to break the records, the Tower Spirit will communicate with the Alliance and bestow many alchemical treasures."

Unlike the solitary cultivation of talisman dao cultivators.

The number of alchemists in the cultivation world is much larger.

Their influence is also much greater than that of talisman masters.

Therefore, the Alchemy Alliance was established many years ago in the cultivation world.

This alliance is spread all over the cultivation world, and as long as there are slightly larger sects, they will have a Dan Tower established by the alliance.

Inside the Dan Tower, there are various alchemy training levels, and there are exclusive alchemy steles that record the alchemical achievements of alchemists under the age of thirty.

As long as you leave your name on the alchemy stele, the Dan Tower will follow the procedures established by the Alchemy Alliance and bestow many alchemical treasures.

"There are rewards?"

After Shen Mo confirmed, he couldn't help but feel tempted.

On the alchemy stele, there are hundreds of records of spirit medicines and elixirs.

From the highest third-grade to the lowest gradeless elixir, they are all included.

For Shen Mo, those high-level elixirs are things he has never mastered.

Even if he does, he is currently not yet at the level of a second-grade alchemist, so it is impossible for him to refine a third-grade elixir.

But if it's about refining Yang-boosting powder, Qi-replenishing elixir, or small nurturing elixir...

Shen Mo is confident that he can break the records on the alchemy stele and leave his own name.

After all, he has refined these elixirs countless times, and his proficiency has reached the peak.

No matter how talented Zhao Lingyin is, she is still unable to compare with Shen Mo in terms of proficiency in alchemy.
