"Hehe, look, Master, you’ve got to have a grand entrance, don’t you? Otherwise, it makes me look like an ineffective apprentice." Chen Tianlong grinned and asked deliberately, "Where’s Mengting? Why hasn’t she come to greet me?"

"Haha, you rascal, you finally remember our Mengting, don’t you? She’s a good girl; you should cherish her. Don’t forget, she’s the one who’s truly cared for you all along."

Tan Tian became slightly emotional as he continued, "I might have some old-fashioned views, but honestly, other women might make you feel the sweetness of love, but love can’t be swiped at an ATM to dispense cash. Only the woman who quietly earns money for you and provides a financial foundation is true love."

"Haha, Master, you’re absolutely right."

Chen Tianlong did not refute and offered no opinions. Wu Mengting’s love for him was something he deeply cherished in his heart, which is why he had previously decided to make Wu Mengting his girlfriend.

"Hmm, as long as you understand. I won’t say much more. Such a treasure is right in front of you; if you let it slip away, you’d be a fool. I believe you’re a smart person."

After saying that, Tan Tian led Chen Tianlong into the hall.

After setting things aside, they poured themselves tea and began discussing serious matters.

Initially, they chatted about the company’s development. As the topic shifted with Chen Tianlong’s lead, they immediately delved into the materials for the Super Qi Gathering Pill.

Tan Tian, being a medicine enthusiast, immediately lit up at the mention of this new type of pill. 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚

"You’re talking about the Super Qi Gathering Pill?"

Tan Tian had studied the Qi Gathering Pill for a long time, but considering the high cost and low return in the Celestial Dao, he had lost interest in further research.

But this time was different; Chen Tianlong brought the prescription for the Super Qi Gathering Pill.

The Super Qi Gathering Pill was something Tan Tian had heard about, a pill that allows breakthroughs in the Celestial Dao as much as one desires. However, the further one advances, the more quantities are needed, allowing upgrading to the Celestial Dao Seven Stars.

This is exactly why the Celestial Pill Sect boasts a group of Celestial Dao Seven Stars experts; without such resources, the Celestial Pill Sect wouldn’t be so revered.

"Yes, the Super Qi Gathering Pill. Here is the prescription!"

Chen Tianlong said as he handed over the well-organized prescription. But seeing it, Tan Tian instantly frowned, thinking, damn it, it’s impossible to gather all these ingredients!

"This..."

Tan Tian had the urge to give up immediately, at a loss for words.

The prescription was good, but the materials were impossible to gather, what a rip-off.

"Hehe, Master, I know what you want to say, but I’d like to tell you, apart from one thing I can’t find yet, I’ve either gathered or can get the rest." Chen Tianlong smiled lightly as he spoke.

"Hiss~ really?"

Tan Tian gasped, this apprentice is something else, being able to obtain such things.

"Of course it’s true, it’s just that Dragon Scales are hard to obtain, and it’s likely from a Spirit Beast Dragon..." At this, Chen Tianlong awkwardly scratched his head, not even knowing if dragons exist, yet it’s asking for their scales.

"Spirit Beast Dragon, huh~"

On hearing this, Lin Tianyou remembered something and quickly glanced at the nearby calendar. Seeing it was July 25th, he sighed in relief, "Thankfully, I didn’t miss it."

"Master, what is it? What didn’t you miss?" Chen Tianlong asked, puzzled.

Tan Tian lifted his head and smiled slightly, "The trial of the Celestial Pill Sect!"

"Oh? The trial of the Celestial Pill Sect, I seem to have heard of it, but with us opposing the Celestial Pill Sect, we wouldn’t even have a chance to participate, would we." Chen Tianlong chuckled bitterly.

"Not necessarily. The trial of the Celestial Pill Sect allows anyone to participate as long as they meet the trial conditions. After all, the rules of this trial weren’t set by the current Sect Leader but by the late grand uncle. If they refused you due to current grievances, it would be disrespectful to him."

Tan Tian explained, "The Celestial Pill Sect has been established for over five hundred years, they might be lenient on other matters, but when it comes to this, they strictly abide by the rules and won’t deny your participation due to personal grudges. Rest assured on that."

"Oh? Do you think I should participate? The conditions don’t seem that great, just one Qi Gathering Pill and one Great Rejuvenation Pill. They’re of no use to me."

Chen Tianlong remembered what Ye Feng had once mentioned and recalled it now as Tan Tian brought it up again.

"That isn’t the case anymore. Those were the old rewards. This year is special, so the trial of the Celestial Pill Sect was delayed. It normally starts on July 15, but this year it was postponed to August 10."

Tan Tian continued, "Moreover, this year’s rewards are especially generous. Those who pass the trial will receive a Super Qi Gathering Pill and a Super Great Rejuvenation Pill."

"Wow, that good? Then I have to participate."

Hearing about the Super Qi Gathering Pill, Chen Tianlong’s eyes lit up. Now he truly felt that leveling up was difficult. Currently at Celestial Dao Three Stars, Chen Tianlong was uncertain, knowing that future opponents would be stronger and had superior cultivation backgrounds. With a chance to level up, how could he let it go?

"Yes, I also think you should participate. Moreover, this year, the trial of the Celestial Pill Sect will open a very special area, the legendary Forbidden Land of the Celestial Pill Sect, the Five Elements Extreme Realm."

Tan Tian got somewhat excited as he mentioned it, "Do you know what the Five Elements Extreme Realm is?"

Chen Tianlong shook his head, offering a bitter smile, indicating he didn’t know.

"Haha, of course, you don’t know. The Five Elements Extreme Realm is a place where every inch is filled with Five Elements Qi. Attending cultivators can easily solidify their attributes, potentially breaking through one or two levels on the spot. It’s an excellent place for breakthrough and solidification."

If not for his age, Tan Tian would have wanted to participate, as improving strength is always advantageous.

"I see, I understand now. Thank you, Master. Rest assured, I’ll definitely make it before August 10." Chen Tianlong promised.

"Yes, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. I also hope you cherish it."

After reminding him of this, Tan Tian picked up the Super Qi Gathering Pill materials and said, "I’ll keep this prescription tucked away. No worries about it being stolen, right?"

"Haha, let them steal it, it doesn’t matter. If they can gather all those materials, they’re a super master themselves. Worth stealing from." Chen Tianlong shrugged.

"Haha, you brat... alright, I’ll help research it when I have time to see if some ingredients can be substituted."

"Alright."

Chen Tianlong smiled.

Just then, Wu Mengting came in, and seeing her, Tan Tian hurriedly said, "Ah, I have some matters to attend to in my room, you two have a good chat."
