Relatively speaking, these conditions were not harsh. After all, Yang Chen was asking for the acc.u.mulation of the Green Jade Immortal Island in the past. With paying a little price, Yang Chen had no objection and no reason to oppose it.
Shi Shanshan did not seem to change anything, but when they first met, her temperament was different. It seemed that after chatting with Yang Chen while drinking tea, she completely solved the knot and overcame her heart devil.
The movement of the island master was very fast. In less than two hours, several disciples brought thousands of pieces of jade slips. They were handed over to Yang Chen one by one.
Although there were few people studying this aspect, their achievements have been enormous after thousands of years of acc.u.mulation. The thousands of jade slips were not so exaggerated.
When Shi Shanshan saw so many jade slips, she said nothing and directly told her servant to pick out a quiet room for Yang Chen to settle down, so that Yang Chen could read with a peace of mind.
As of now, it was not known how many people hated Yang Chen to the bone, although the relationship between Yang Chen and Shi Shanshan was already widely spread, after all, it was only with them having a simple contact with each other. However, Yang Chen living directly in Shi Shanshan’s courtyard has never happened before.
Even if Yang Chen only stayed in the courtyard of Shi Shanshan, he would be misunderstood. If the island master of the Green Jade Immortal Island was not already strict and commanded that everybody must not hara.s.s Yang Chen, there would be many young disciples from the Green Jade Immortal Island to come to their door and fight Yang Chen to the death.
Yang Chen knew that Shi Shanshan’s heart had just calmed down and he did not want to disturb her, so he took out a second grade Questioning Inner Heart Pill for her to eat.
Shi Shanshan certainly would not suspect that Yang Chen would harm her. Although Yang Chen made her swallow a medicinal pill very awkwardly, she still did not refuse. In front of Yang Chen’s eyes, she took the pill.
Soon, Shi Shanshan noticed that something was not right it. When she regained her consciousness, Yang Chen smiled and signaled for her to retreat. Shi Shanshan wanted to talk to Yang Chen clearly, but the second grade questioning inner heart pill was really too precious. After Yang Chen said the name of the pill, Shi Shanshan no longer cared about the other things and quickly entered the state of seclusion.
Yang Chen looked at the jade slips one by one in the quiet room arranged by Shi Shanshan.
Because the research on marine elixir was not very systematic, these jade slips records were also very complicated. The seafloor was different from the ground, because the influence of the ocean currents was much more than that on the ground. Moreover, most of the oceans were dominated by water attributes and the research direction was somewhat biased.
These were the things that some of the predecessors of the Green Jade Immortal had spent a lot of time acc.u.mulating. Yang Chen couldn’t ignore it at all. Every piece of jade slip was very carefully scanned.
Although the things recorded on the jade were comprehensive, the content was not a lot, but Yang Chen always took a long time to study it. He had to connect with himself on the bottom of the sea and think for a long time.
Many of these marine medicines were unconfirmed. For some things, Yang Chen couldn’t be sure whether it was right or wrong. It could only be verified one by one in the future.
Every time he read, Yang Chen discovered the elixir that he had seen or had already collected, he would study it with A’Zhu and A’Bi. The two women also carefully observed the elixir in the medicine garden. It was as recorded on these jade slips; the days were very fulfilling.
There were two disciples of the Green Jade Immortal Island who have always been with Yang Chen. Every time Yang Chen reads a piece of jade slip, they would take back one piece and then always report to someone.
What made Yang Chen most satisfied was that every piece of jade slip that Yang Chen wanted to see and the elixir that was recorded on, when Yang Chen begins to read, these two disciples would always bring him the physical objects. Those elixirs which Yang Chen has not gotten yet would also be sent to him.
Yang Chen did not resist such an arrangement. The so-called consultation in the last words of the Island master would still be on these marine medicines. The things that Yang Chen knew before wasn’t a lot, but she believed that after a certain period of time, when Yang Chen has enough things, someone would come to discuss with him.
This was no wonder, after all the Green Jade Immortal Island was at sea with ready-made submarine medicine, it would certainly not be wasted. It was a pity that there were fewer people who were really good at alchemy, so the speed of the research would be very slow. But with Yang Chen, a senior alchemist master, he may soon be able to add several new medicinal pills to the Green Jade Immortal Island.
With the real thing, Yang Chen knew more intuitively. And after confirming that these elixir were non-toxic, Yang Chen would personally taste some and try the medicinal essence.
This issue, many jade slips have records of it, but Yang Chen does not dare to believe it easily, it always has to be confirmed personally. He also found several things that were different from the records on the jade slips.
When Shi Shanshan was retreating, the island master has been there once again. It was when Yang Chen had seen most of the jade slips, when she saw the state of Shi Shanshan, she guessed what had happened. She was full of kindness and smiled and looked at Yang Chen for a long time, she was satisfied before leaving.
Subsequently, Yang Chen ushered in several alchemist masters in the Green Jade Immortal Island. In these alchemist masters, there were men and women, old and young, there were Yuanying stage masters, there were also Jiedan stage masters, as well as foundation stage disciples and so on. However, everyone was very respectful to Yang Chen, they were not scornful because his cultivation base was not high.
The person who could refine the second grade questioning inner heart pill, in the mind of the alchemist masters, let alone being a master of the Jiedan stage, even if he was only a foundation stage disciple or a qi refining stage disciple, he would be a respected senior alchemist master who several alchemist masters respected and seek advice from. They often discussed with Yang Chen on the understanding of certain marine medicines.
They have all studied these marine medicines and some things were very familiar to them. However, in terms of understanding of medicinal properties, they were much worse than Yang Chen.
Every time there was a dispute, Yang Chen always inadvertently used one or several kinds of elixirs that could be taken on land. They were all similar medicine. The attributes of the five elements were slightly different. At this time, Yang Chen could find that one or several alchemists would secretly record these conclusions of Yang Chen as a treasure.
This situation lasted for almost a year. Yang Chen had already read all the jade slips and also for many of them, they have been pa.s.sed with these alchemist masters and even Yang Chen used several of them to refine water attribute qi replenishing pills and cultivating yuan pills to prove his point of view, this kind of weightlifting posture made it so that several alchemist masters all admire him.
It was unknown if the news that Yang Chen was studying underwater spirit medicines in the Green Jade Immortal Island was revealed by the sect intentionally or unintentionally.
On the one hand, this was not a secret matter, so there was no need to be sneaky about it. On the other hand, some of the people who disliked Yang Chen in the Green Jade Immortal Island seemed to have no obligation to keep this secret. After a comprehensive balance, the island master actively spread the news.
For those who were in the Pure Yang Palace, they would be a.s.sured of Yang Chen’s safety when they heard that Yang Chen was in the Green Jade Immortal Island. However, if they let them know from other sources rather than from the Green Jade Immortal Island side, they may have some other ideas. This was also one of the factors considered by the island master.
This news seemed to have aroused a strong interest from the outside world. Everyone knew that there were abundant resources in the sea, but apart from a big sect like the Green Jade Immortal Island, they were several large rogue cultivators alliances and they were still far from the Central Plains.
Cultivators have always expected to fully utilize the rich resources of the sea, but there has been no good way, so what was the meaning of Yang Chen’s high-profile exercise in the ocean at this time?
Those who understood Yang Chen’s personality believed that he was indeed only studying marine medicine. Those who did not understand Yang Chen began to wonder if Yang Chen had obtained some secrets and was able to use these marine medicines.
Reminiscent of the fact that Yang Chen liked to read some miscellaneous books, many people became interested in Yang Chen again, not knowing which kind of miscellaneous book he has benefited from. Who would think that the request was made by the two medicinal garden spirit tools of Yang Chen?
Some people immediately began to plan how to get benefits from it and more greedy guys began to plan how to get these things that Yang Chen got as their own.
Yang Chen who was in the Green Jade Immortal Island certainly does not care about the thoughts of these people. The reason why he stayed in the Green Jade Immortal Island so long was that he was waiting for Shi Shanshan to complete her seclusion.
After a year, Shi Shanshan finally woke up from the retreat. As soon as she opened her eyes, there was a glimpse of a glimmer of light in Shi Shanshan’s eyes.
Before Yang Chen saw it, the slightest embarra.s.sment and worries immediately went away, Instead, it was replaced by Shi Shanshan’s confident and strong gaze.
Don’t mention the second grade questioning inner heart pill, even a first grade questioning inner heart pill could easily allow an expert to pa.s.s their bottleneck, not to mention that Shi Shanshan was only in the middle Jiedan stage.
After Yang Chen persuaded Shi Shanshan, she had almost no psychological pressure. Even if she didn’t take the questioning inner heart pill, the breakthrough was only a matter of time and it would not last more than five years. Now with the help of the second grade questioning inner heart pill, it took just a short period of one year, Shi Shanshan directly skipped the previous bottleneck and completely entered the late Jiedan realm.
It could be said that Shi Shanshan’s cultivation apt.i.tude was simply rare in the world. After entering the Jiedan stage for less than 20 years, she has broken through the thresholds of the middle Jiedan stage and entered the late Jiedan stage. This cultivation speed was quick, even a little faster than Gongsun Ling in his previous life.
About the second grade questioning inner heart pill, he believed that Shi Shanshan would not disclose it, the island master also seemed to want to determine what it was, but she would never think that it was the second grade questioning inner heart pill, at most she thought it was a first grade questioning inner heart pill.
Yang Chen has not left, just waiting for Shi Shanshan to wake up. Of course, this was only part of the reason, the other part was to wait for some unscrupulous guys.
In fact, in the later period, the people who came here to ask Yang Chen questions were more than a few alchemists, some curious Green Jade Immortal Island disciples also came.
Yang Chen promised to the island master that as long as it was not against the rules of the Pure Yang Palace, other aspects should also be as convenient as possible. These people had a wide range of problems, most of which were related to alchemy. However, on several occasions, Yang Chen received several very strange requests.
The other party held some different ancient scriptures and all the characters were words from over 10,000 years ago. They asked for advice in front of Yang Chen, if Yang Chen could recognise it.
These ancient writings, Yang Chen recognized a large part of it. In order to not expose their true intentions, the people who asked for it worked hard. Several junior disciples brought a few different jade slips to ask for advice. Every piece of jade were real antiquities.
The things left by the immortals on the Immortal Executioner Stage were also tens of thousands of years old. Therefore, Yang Chen has indeed worked hard in this respect. The inheritance of the Blue Vault Mountain Immortal’s Cave also made Yang Chen more familiar with the mastery of ancient Chinese characters.
Take the jade slip that Yang Chen pointed out, it did not record anything too important. A very old cultivation method, which has now been improved, a pill recipe, it was no longer meaningful and another one was something like a story book. Three jade slips, three language, each of which was different.
When Yang Chen was very accurate about telling the disciples who came to ask for the contents of several pieces of jade slips, the disciples showed considerable disappointment.
This seemed very normal. Everyone wanted to get some good things from the ancient jade slips. When they found that they were just a bunch of meaningless methods, they would have such disappointment.
However, this behavior was what made Yang Chen puzzled. Few people would study this ancient scripture, except for Yang Chen, who has received the inheritance of the Blue Vault Mountain Immortal’s Cave. But how could some of the junior disciples of the Green Jade Immortal Island have such opportunities? Were they also studying Yang Chen and reading through various books?
Now because of Yang Chen’s heaven defying achievements, every sect was consciously investing a lot of manpower in some miscellaneous books and expecting to be like Yang Chen, so that they could find some major secrets. Especially like the Blue Cloud Sect, which has already benefited, it has spared no effort to promote it.
But this kind of thing, how could they get Yang Chen to ask for advice, it was somewhat puzzling. The performance of those disciples seemed normal, but Yang Chen believed that they just want to confirm whether Yang Chen knew the ancient writings.
After trying to understand this, Yang Chen did not care. These people were at most the errand boys, they were not the real mastermind. They were not worth his time.
He was waiting for Shi Shanshan to wake up, just to let her handle this matter. These disciples, if they were inspired by the Green Jade Immortal Island, it would be fine, but if they were doing things for other sects, it would not be such a wonderful thing for the Green Jade Immortal Island.
Yang Chen also firmly believed that those people must be the latter. The Green Jade Immortal Island seemed to have the tragedy of rebellious disciples.
