The Cloudless Mountain Range was located not far from the south of the Central Region. It was a deep forest, not far from the center of the Central Region. There was a Dan Temple in the mountain range. It was neither big nor small and looked very simple.
Xiao Chen searched in the mountains for a long time before he found a courtyard house in a small valley. It had been there for a long time and the walls were full of plants.
Xiao Chen slowly descended into the small valley and looked at the Dan Temple from afar. He murmured to himself, "Sixteen alchemists. The strongest one is a Fifth Realm Alchemist at the Mid Divine King Realm. There is also a Third Realm Alchemist at the Early Divine General Realm. The rest are all Second Realm Alchemists at the Profound God Realm. Except for the temple master, the rest are all in their early twenties!"
Speaking of which, Xiao Chen saw a young man walking down the mountain with a basket on his back on a rugged path halfway up the mountain in the distance.
Xiao Chen mumbled, "Rank Two Alchemy Master. Including him, there are seventeen Alchemy Masters in the Elixir Temple. The herbs used by the Elixir Temple are probably collected from the mountains. The pills they make are sold in the Central Divine Capital in exchange for Divine Origin Stones for cultivation. In that case, the pills they make are just average."
A few minutes later, the young man arrived at the foot of the mountain. After seeing Xiao Chen, he did not look surprised or flustered. Everything was normal.
"Little brother, please wait." Xiao Chen stopped the man.
"Big brother, what's the matter?" The man asked with a smile. He wore a white Daoist robe. His face was handsome and his eyes were clear. His long hair made him look like a Daoist.
Xiao Chen sized up the man and asked, "What's your name?"
The man smiled, "I don't have a name. My master named me Dan Huo. My name is Dan Huo."
"I see. Little brother Dan Huo, take me to your master." Xiao Chen smiled.
"Please follow me." Dan Huo smiled politely and made a gesture of invitation.
Inside the courtyard of Alchemy Temple, five or six men of the same age as Alchemy Flame were busy. Alchemy Flame smiled and said, "They are my senior brothers and sisters. I'm the youngest in Alchemy Temple. This is Alchemy Water, this is Alchemy Wind, and this is Alchemy Wood."
After introducing the people in the yard, Dan Huo continued, "There are other senior brothers and sisters who are concocting elixirs. Master is in the hall, probably studying elixirs. Master likes concocting elixirs very much and regards it as more important than his own life. Please follow me."
"You view alchemy as more important than your own life? In that case, it won't be difficult to invite them to join Soulgate. "Xiao Chen laughed in his mind.
Dan Shui and the others looked at Xiao Chen curiously. Normally, very few people would come to the Alchemy Temple. It was rare to see someone like that today, and he was dressed so strangely.
"Master, someone is looking for you." Dan Huo knocked on the door.
"Invite him in." The voice of an old man came from the hall.
Dan Huo looked at Xiao Chen and said with a smile, "You can go in. I have to dry the herbs."
"Thank you," Xiao Chen said with a smile before stepping into the hall.
The hall of Alchemy Temple was simple and crude. Everything seemed old, but it was very clean and spotless.
Xiao Chen glanced around the hall and saw an old man in a white robe on the right side of the hall. The old man was studying the prescription very intently and seriously.
Xiao Chen walked up to the old man slowly and did not say anything. Instead, he looked at the prescription that the old man was looking at. The old man seemed to have noticed Xiao Chen and asked, "Young man, what business do you have with me? I can see that you are also an alchemist, but I don't know what grade you are. "
"Junior Xiao Chen is here to invite senior and alchemists to join Soulgate!" Xiao Chen went straight to the point.
"Soulgate? Old Man, why haven't I heard of it before? "The old man was stunned and looked at Xiao Chen in confusion.
"Soulgate has just been established and needs time to develop. Therefore, I came to find senior first." Xiao Chen explained with a smile.
"I see. No wonder you need an alchemist." The old man nodded and stood up slowly. "Little brother Xiao Chen, forgive me for not being able to accept you. Old Man doesn't want to interfere with anything in the Realm of the Gods. I can only refine pills quietly with my disciples."
"Of course, senior only needs to refine pills. Moreover, I will provide you with herbs and better conditions for refining pills. I can also provide Divine Origin Stones for your cultivation." Xiao Chen smiled. As long as he could subdue the alchemists of Alchemy Temple, Xiao Chen would be able to help them improve their alchemy realm. Moreover, these young people had good aptitudes. Xiao Chen was looking for such young people.
The old man smiled faintly and wasn't tempted by Xiao Chen's conditions. He smiled and said, "Little brother Xiao Chen, there are many forces that came to invite Old Man, but I have rejected them all. Please go back."
"Senior, don't reject me first. The reason why you didn't accept them is that their conditions didn't tempt you. However, my conditions will definitely tempt you." Xiao Chen smiled confidently. He knew that the old man valued alchemy more than his life. Xiao Chen wasn't afraid that he wouldn't agree.
The old man was surprised. "Oh? Little brother, tell me about it. "
Xiao Chen took a look at the formula that the elder had just studied and smiled. "Senior, the formula you just looked at was a formula for a fifth-grade pill, and it was also one for increasing one's cultivation. It is a pity that the formula is damaged, and the words of two herbs are no longer visible. Senior, you must be studying which two herbs are needed."
Xiao Chen had bought a lot of herbs from the auction. From low-grade to seventh-grade pills, Xiao Chen had them all. Moreover, he was very familiar with the properties of these herbs.
The old man didn't say anything. He knew that Xiao Chen had more to say. Then, Xiao Chen smiled and said, "Even if senior has studied the herbs, you might not be able to successfully refine them. Pills that can improve cultivation are very difficult to refine. With senior's alchemy skills, I'm afraid you won't be able to refine them."
The old man smiled. "Looking at your young age, you know a lot. You are much better than Old Man's disciples. However, how do you know that Old Man won't be able to refine them with his alchemy skills? Aren't you underestimating Old Man too much? "
Xiao Chen turned his hand and took out an alchemy manual. He handed it to the old man and said with a smile, "Senior, if you think that your alchemy skills are better than mine, then you can refine them. Otherwise, you won't be able to refine them."
The old man looked at Xiao Chen suspiciously. He then opened the alchemy manual. With just a glance, the old man's body trembled. His eyes widened and his old face was filled with shock.
"Senior, this is a fifth-grade pill prescription. It is also a pill that can improve cultivation. I believe that it is several times better than your prescription." Xiao Chen smiled and handed another fifth-grade pill prescription to the old man. It seemed that he wouldn't stop until the old man's jaw dropped.
The shocked old man hurriedly took the prescription. After looking at it, his face changed again and he was even more shocked.
"Senior, if you agree to join the Soulgate, I can provide you with alchemy skills, prescriptions, herbs, and Divine Origin Stones. My alchemy skills can help you improve your alchemy skills in a short time!" Seeing that the old man was moved, Xiao Chen gave him another dose of medicine.
"Danqing!" The old man was shocked for a long time. Then, he suddenly shouted. Xiao Chen was secretly surprised.
After a while, a man ran over. He was a third-grade alchemist. He asked, "Master, what's the hurry?"
"Quick! Tell your junior brothers to pack up immediately. We are going to the Soulgate! "The old man hurriedly said. He even took Xiao Chen's alchemy manual and the prescription.
Hearing the old man's words and seeing the old man's anxious appearance, Xiao Chen was stunned. The old man's face changed faster than flipping a book. A second ago, he didn't agree, and the next second, he asked them to pack up!
"Senior, you haven't told me your name yet." Xiao Chen hurriedly asked.
"Old Man, Dan Yunshan. Little Brother Xiao Chen, don't go back on your words!" Dan Yunshan said in ecstasy. He was so excited that he found it hard to suppress his emotions now that he had an even more powerful alchemy technique and pills.
Half an hour later, Dan Yunshan, Dan Qing, and Dan Huo followed Xiao Chen out of the Dan Temple and headed to the Soulgate!
Xiao Chen didn't ask these alchemists to refine pills immediately. Instead, he asked them to become more powerful alchemists. This way, their soul power could improve faster.
At the same time, Xiao Chen also spread the news that the Soulgate was recruiting experts from all walks of life. However, this one sentence also attracted many wandering cultivators to join the Soulgate.
Under Nie Wuqing's careful selection, the first batch of Soulgate brothers was finally selected. However, there weren't many of them, only a hundred or so. The strongest among them was only a mid-stage God King. In just a few days, the Soulgate had grown a lot. However, it was still only a third-rate organization with a magnificent palace.
Of course, Xiao Chen didn't send people out to recruit experts like he did in the Immortal World. Xiao Chen only said one sentence and didn't say anything else. As for whether the experts of the Immortal World wanted to join the Soulgate, Xiao Chen didn't care.
In the hall, Nie Wuqing asked doubtfully, "Xiao Chen, it's been more than ten days and not a single person has come to join the Soulgate. Why didn't you spread the news?"
"I want experts, not weaklings. If I spread the news again, those who want to join the Soulgate are only weaklings. The Soulgate doesn't need too many guards." Xiao Chen smiled. It was too hard to nurture weaklings. Xiao Chen was too lazy to recruit them. Moreover, there were still people from the Immortal World, Demon World, and Ghost World who would ascend to the Immortal World. Rather than nurturing others, it was better to nurture his own people.
Bai Xinlan frowned, "Big Brother Xiao Chen, it's not that easy to recruit experts. Without a strong backing, they won't join."
"There's no rush. Take your time. Alright, I'm going to cultivate. You guys should go back too." Xiao Chen smiled and left the hall in a flash.
Xiao Chen used Spatial Transference to arrive at the mountain behind the Soulgate. He found a natural cave and condensed five clones. Two of them cultivated the power of the soul, while the other three and the true body cultivated physical strength.
"My cultivation has reached the peak of late-stage Profound God. After consuming the Heavenly Azure Profound Divine Pellet, refining the dragon soul's essence blood and the Immortal Soul's chaos energy, breaking through to the Divine Champion realm shouldn't be a problem." Xiao Chen muttered as he cultivated.
