The Divine Dao Alchemy Emperor
Chapter 26
As Ma Da Jun had said, this matter had nothing to do with him, so once he said what he wanted to say, he left immediately. He still had to complete the task Ling Han had ordered him to do.
"Grandfather, are we really going to do what he said and obey Ling Dong Xing and his son's orders without question?" Ling Mu Yun asked, gritting his teeth. How could he resign himself to do such a thing? Ling Han was a famous piece of trash, and for him to actually obey the order of a piece of trash ... Just thinking about it made him feel stupid.
"Of course not!" Ling Zhong Kuan waved his hand forcefully, I have worked so hard all this time, how can I let a piece of trash ruin all my hard work? Whether that brat was real trash or had just pretended to be one, there was no way he could hinder me from taking over our Ling Clan! "
"But Grandpa, what's our next move?" Ling Mu Yun looked extremely dazed.
"Wait!" Ling Zhong Kuan said in a deep voice, The relationship between the Cheng Clan and us is very tense right now. Although Ling Dong Xing was able to counterattack with the help of Ma Da Jun, the Cheng Clan was not easily taken lightly. Force them into a corner and they will definitely put everything into the fight."
"At that time, we will give Ling Dong Xing an additional stab in the back, and push him from the position of clan head!"
Ling Mu Yun's face lit up after hearing this, but his eyes were filled with poisonous fury, "Grandfather, that little Ling Han boy must be handed over to me, I want to kill him with my own hands!"
"You'll definitely get your wish!" Ling Zhong Kuan said with a cold smile.

The next morning, Zhu He Xin once again visited the Ling Clan. Now Ling Dong Xing finally understood why Ma Da Jun was so respectful towards his son. It was because even a Black Class alchemist like Zhu He Xin would stand with both hands by his side in front of his son - the epitome of an obedient student.
This solved the mystery but caused Ling Dong Xing to become even more shocked. Because, in the latter case, it was only a Yellow Class alchemist, but now even a Black Class alchemist had great respect for his son. What the hell is going on here?
The reason behind Zhu He Xin's visit was to pass on some news to Ling Han.
There was news that a stalk of Earth Dragon Grass might have appeared in the Seven Wind Mountains.
When Liu Yu Tong went to buy the ingredients to concoct the Little Cloud Pill and Water a few days ago, he also asked Zhu He Xin about the ingredients for another pill formula. This pill formula has a total of four ingredients that fall into the 'extremely rare' category'. Even the Heaven Medicine Pavilion did not have these materials in stock.
Or rather, the branches in the Rain Country did not have them. However, based on his current rank, Zhu He Xin had no way of checking the stock of a larger branch, not to mention transferring something.
This pill formula was the formula needed to concoct pills to cure Ling Dong Xing's Spirit Base. The name of the pill was "Restore Spirit Pill", an Earth Grade middle-tier pill!
Earth Dragon Grass was one of the four missing ingredients that this pill formula required. So, as soon as he received this new item, Zhu He Xin quickly came to visit the Ling Residence personally. Of course, while one of the reasons was to inform Ling Han of the important news, he also wanted to come and seek guidance from Ling Han. Other times, he would not dare to come and disturb Ling Han.
Ling Han was naturally elated. But after he carefully asked about the circumstances surrounding the Seven Wind Mountains, he could only decide to temporarily delay the trip.
The reason for that was, the one who brought the news was a strong warrior of the ninth layer of the Element Gathering Level. By the time he was discovered by the herb collecting team, he was already on the verge of death. He only managed to say "cave", "giant red snake" and "Earth Dragon Grass" before he died.
Thus, this led to the conclusion that/it had an Earth Dragon Grass within the Seven Wind Mountains, yet there had to be a giant red snake guarding on it. It even managed to injure a powerful warrior of the ninth layer of the Elemental Gathering Level.
However Ling Han knew that/that where there was an Earth Dragon Grass, there would normally be a Red Scaled Dragon Snake coiling nearby. The snake would absorb the weak Dragon Qi released by the Earth Dragon Grass to slowly evolve and complete the transformation from a snake into a dragon.
An adult Red Scaled Dragon Snake would possess a cultivation comparable to the ninth layer of the Element Gathering Tier. Furthermore, because it had a bit of a dragon bloodline, its strength far exceeded that of ordinary warriors of the ninth layer of the Elemental Gathering Level. It could be considered to have one foot in the Flowing Spring Level and was the invincible king of the Element Gathering Level.
Should Ling Han enter the Seven Wind Mountains at this stage, there was no way he could be the same opponent as the Red Scaled Dragon Snake - it would be - even with Liu Yu Tong's help, he said, unless Liu Yu Tong had one foot in the Flowing Spring Level as well.
Moreover, the core within the Red Scaled Dragon Snake could be refined into a Transcending Origin Pill. Taking this pill would allow a martial artist at the Element Collection Level to directly advance one layer of – with the limit of being the peak of the third layer of the Element Collection Level. Moreover, since the Red Scaled Dragon Snake had a bit of a dragon bloodline, its blood and flesh were extremely nutritious and would allow Ling Han to comprehend the Level of the Dead Tree, the first level of the Unbreakable Heaven Scroll, at a faster rate.
He decided to continue to work hard at his cultivation and only set out towards the Seven Wind Mountains after he had broken through to the Elemental Gathering Level. He could also utilize the core within Dragon Snake to quickly raise his cultivation level to the third layer of the Element Gathering Tier, after which he would easily break through to the fourth layer.
Moreover, he also had to increase his own strength through actual battle experience and strengthen his foundation. While in his last life he stood at the pinnacle of martial arts, to be honest, he was not considered the person with the strongest combat power.
There's a simple reason for that. His cultivation progress was faster than that of an average cultivator because he already had a Heaven Class high-tier Spirit Base, but if he fought with a warrior of the same cultivation level, it would be the same, he still had to take into account his opponent's battle tactics and the level of control he had over the use of martial arts skills.
In his last life, Ling Han was really very intelligent, though, because how else could he be the first Alchemy Emperor ever - a record that no one had ever managed to achieve and it was likely that no one else would ever achieve it? However, there were bound to be limits to one's time and energy. He had spent most of his time on alchemy research and concocting alchemy pills. No matter how much time he had left, he had spent on increasing his cultivation level, so how much time was left to refine his martial arts skills?
But this was not a problem, because his cultivation progress was too fast. With the additional support of the alchemy pill, how could his opponents compare to him? He only needed to use the difference in cultivation levels to destroy his opponents. He doesn't need to use any tactics.
But once he reached the pinnacle of martial arts, this weakness was revealed.
In Ling Han's last life, there were a total of seven strong warriors of Heaven Level. Based purely on his actual battle power, he must be at the bottom. The reason for that was the fact that/that he relied on the use of alchemy pills to increase his cultivation level and did not really have much actual battle experience.
It could be said that his/her Heaven Tier cultivation level was actually quite hollow!
Of course, if he spent over a hundred years to continue his martial arts skill training, he would definitely be able to compensate for this inability. After all, he was still too young. Three
a hundred years of the Heaven Tier was still an extremely rare existence in history - such people could be counted on the finger of a single hand.
In this life, Ling Han no longer wanted to become this kind of paper tiger warrior, so he definitely had to leave deep footprints behind every step of his - every step had to be taken firmly.
Ling Han had no exaggerated thoughts. In addition to cultivating the Five Elements Heaven Grade Skill every day, he also began to refine his martial arts skills. In his last life, he had given up on using his Yellow Class and Black Class martial arts skills at a very early stage. He was mostly just stuck to using Heaven Grade martial arts skills, and only occasionally would he deign to use Earth Grade martial arts skills.
But now, he could only use the Yellow Class martial arts skills. As a result, he needed to work extremely hard to cultivate and make himself a persistent ruler of all people with the same cultivation level, he said, and not only did he gain his victory by taking advantage of the difference in cultivation level between him and his opponents.
However, he had a wide variety of high-level martial arts skills, but very few were low-level ones.
That's natural. In his previous life, he had become a powerful warrior of the Heaven Tier. Even if he had discovered the Black or Yellow Class martial arts skills on the historic site, how could he possibly train in one of them? He might flip through some of them, but there must be some of them.
Fortunately, he was also a martial artist who slowly rose from the bottom in his last life, so he still had some low-level martial arts skills.
Shocking Electricity Sword Arts, Flying Fire Palm Arts, Dashing Panther Fist, and Exiting Cloud Step were all Yellow Class high-level martial arts skills.
However, what caused Ling Han to feel a little embarrassed was the fact that he had yet to develop these four martial arts skills to the highest level in his last life, as he had always been busy with concocting pills.
So, he just had to start all over again. He's still young anyway.
Ling Han started with the Shocking Electricity Sword Arts. Simple reason. His current cultivation level was still too low, so he needed the support of a weapon to increase his strength, and the favorite weapon of most martial artists was a sword or a sword.
