"It seems you are quite lucky! With this kind of spiritual energy infused, it can increase the success rate of alchemy. Just this 'revival' alone is something ordinary people cannot achieve. Old Man has truly gained some insight today; in the future, your skills will surely surpass mine by a lot! 'If you become rich and powerful, don't forget your roots!'"
Li Rui forced a smile, not expecting that the gas produced from the wordless book would have such effects. He must study this thing thoroughly.
"You have already helped me with this matter; now it's time for me to fulfill my promise."
Hearing this, Li Rui couldn't help but feel delighted; he would have alchemy techniques to learn.
"Follow me."
Li Rui then followed the crazy old man in a daze.
He didn't know how long they walked, but they soon arrived at a place that seemed very familiar. Wasn't this the place they had accidentally passed before? What was this old man bringing him here for?
"Greetings, Grand Elder!"
This...
Li Rui was stunned in place, not expecting this guy to be the Grand Elder, the previous Grand Elder at that. His skills were indeed impressive. Looking at the abilities of these two guards, they were formidable enough to bow their heads in front of the crazy old man.
"Are you sure..."
Before he could finish his sentence, the Grand Elder leaned in and whispered something to them. The two then cupped their fists and allowed him to enter directly.
In this situation, it seemed only the total Helmsman of Tai Xuan Sect could challenge the Grand Elder! Perhaps even they couldn't.
What frustrated Li Rui was not knowing what they were going to do in this forbidden area. He felt an inexplicable sense of crisis sweeping in from all directions.
It seemed as if something was lurking ominously, creating an extremely eerie atmosphere.
"Where are we going next? Why do I feel uncomfortable as soon as I step in here?"
"You would be strange if you felt completely comfortable! Don't you know this place is called the Forbidden Land? I am the guardian of this Forbidden Land for a hundred years, and the one who just brought you here is the next one, understand?"
"What about the previous Helmsman?" Li Rui couldn't help but ask.
The crazy old man seemed to be lost in thought for a moment, then waved his hand, swallowing back whatever he was about to say.
Soon, we arrived in front of a waterfall. Suddenly, the crazy old man pointed at a stone pillar and signaled for Li Rui to stand on it.
"Are you kidding me? Standing under such a high waterfall, won't I..." Li Rui pointed at his own nose, his eyes wide with disbelief, and asked.
"When I tell you to do something, just do it. Why so much nonsense?"
Li Rui swallowed hard, realizing that this waterfall was at least several thousand meters high, and it was the kind that seemed endless.
It would be strange if standing up there didn't cause any problems!
However, for the sake of his alchemy skills, Li Rui decisively climbed up onto the stone pillar.
The first time he stood on top, he really felt a bit unsteady and almost fell off. The stone pillar was about ten meters high and as thin as an arm! With both feet planted firmly, he found it quite difficult to maintain his balance.
Moreover, the impact of the waterfall was tremendous! He had a vague feeling that something unexpected might happen in the next second.
After just three seconds, Li Rui could no longer hold on and jumped straight off the stone pillar, suddenly realizing that he felt icy all over and was shivering.
It was only winter now, but here it was warm in winter and cool in summer! How could the water in this waterfall be so cold?
Seeing Li Rui's condition, the crazy old man couldn't help but chuckle awkwardly.
"Young people are indeed young! Can't even handle this little bit?"
"Why don't you give it a try?" Li Rui couldn't help but roll his eyes.
Little did they know, the Mad Old Man had already stepped up, hands clasped together, eyes shining brightly like an old monk. Time seemed to pass quickly, and soon an hour had gone by.
The Mad Old Man stood there with an air of arrogance, seemingly unfazed, which left Li Rui extremely frustrated.
"At his age, still bullying children. I really can't understand how people like this get by," Li Rui murmured.
Then the Mad Old Man came down without saying much to Li Rui, telling him to go up and stand there. Standing for three hours would be enough; at least he needed some composure during Alchemy.
As for what happened later, it seemed that this was something that had to be done.
Li Rui just gritted his teeth and stomped his feet before going up.
The initial effect was not bad; he managed to endure thirty seconds under the waterfall.
When he came down, he was shivering and sneezing all over; the scene was truly comical.
For the first few times, the Mad Old Man indeed stayed beside Li Rui, but by the time they reached the third round, it seemed like the Mad Old Man received some kind of notification.
He wrote down a note and placed it in his treasure pouch, instructing Li Rui to open it after completing his task. He must finish everything within half a month; otherwise, he wouldn't need to come see him again. This...
Moreover, there was no food at all; everything had to be hunted by himself. It was truly frustrating!
Perhaps from an outsider's perspective, with the support of the Grand Elder of the Xuan Sect, one would surely elevate to a higher level. Little did they know that all of this was training in the devil's hierarchy!
A week later, Li Rui began to realize that he could endure for several hours. Little did they know that he actually persisted for five hours; it was quite impressive.
"It’s time to open the Old Man's treasure pouch."
Upon opening it, Li Rui felt his vision darken, nearly fainting on the spot. This was not just devil training; it was hellish training, and he never expected the requirements of Alchemy to be so harsh! With dozens of tasks to complete within twenty-four hours, he truly felt extremely frustrated.
It seemed that in the days to come, Li Rui wouldn't even have a moment to rest his eyes.
The next training session involved lifting a ten-thousand-pound boulder placed nearby and standing on a stone pillar for five minutes.
Moreover, it was two ten-thousand-pound boulders. Li Rui couldn't help but swallow hard.
Little did he know that it was quite difficult at first, but gradually, he became immune to the sudden cold and could even start playing with his toes on top of the boulders.
This time, the efficiency was very high; he completed it in just sixteen hours.
Immediately after, Li Rui did not take a break and opened the next task.
What… there’s actually this kind of operation? Li Rui felt extremely frustrated.
This Mad Old Man actually wanted him to sit still and watch the prey while performing long-range attacks. This was something only possible in the Cleansing Realm! Suddenly…
