Chapter 47: The Forest of Qiu Lin

  "Just try it and you'll know." Long Ge said with a smile.

  "Alright!" The crowd immediately dispersed, giving Long Ge space to refine his elixir.

  Long Song took out his furnace, which was newly purchased and of the highest quality silverware, with excellent heat conduction and fire conduction properties, sufficient for refining third-grade elixirs.

  Long Song skillfully threw each material into the furnace one by one, then repeatedly refined them to remove impurities.

  Once refined, twice refined, three times refined.

  Four times purification, five times purification, six times purification!

  Seven times purification!

  The purity is already sufficient, Long Song begins to use his spiritual power to control the flames and melt the materials. The melting of the materials is very particular, if the fire is too strong it will burn, if the fire is not enough it will not melt, so the spiritual power must be grasped well.

  If it's said that Long Song had some difficulty refining the Small Soul Pill before mastering the Pear Flower Gun Method and the Dragon Family Gun Method, but now after twenty days of cultivation, his spiritual power has clearly increased, refining this Small Soul Pill is truly effortless.

  Long Song was calmly and slowly refining, no matter how tense or excited the people around him looked, his state of mind remained as calm as still water.

  Gradually, the powdered material turned into a liquid medicine, and the next step was to condense the dan.

  Long Song used his spiritual power to condense the medicinal liquid and then compress it. This step was the most difficult, if the force was too great, the efficacy of the elixir would be reduced or even disappear, and if the force was too small, the elixir could not be condensed.

  However, these difficulties were nothing for Long Ge, who had over 10,000 years of alchemy experience. He skillfully refined the medicine, and after about ten minutes, a strong fragrance wafted out from the furnace.

  "Whoosh~~~ done!" Long Ge let out a breath, then opened the alchemy furnace with an excited face.

  "Wow!" The people who came over to watch were all shocked. There were actually thirty-six small, round Soul Pellets in the furnace.

  Thirty-six pieces! The highest state of proficiency!

  "Six years old! A three-star alchemist at six years old!" The nearby alchemist was shocked.

  "This is absolutely unprecedented!" The union elder said affirmatively.

  "Wait a minute, Long Song," said another elder. "I'll get the certificate of third-class low-grade alchemist for you."

  "Alright." Long Song said with a smile, "Since there's still some time left, I'll continue refining two more Small Soul Pellets."

  "Continuous refinement is so exhausting for one's spiritual energy!" an elder said.

  "In this way, spiritual power can be improved faster!" Long Ge said, and then started refining.

  After a whole morning of refining, a total of four furnaces of Small Soul Dan were refined. Long Song sold three furnaces for over 1 million yuan and used 100,000 to buy medicinal materials for refining dan medicine, which was enough for Long Song to use during his training.

  Receiving the certificate of a third-class lower-grade alchemist, which was also a new badge, Long Song walked out of the Alchemists' Guild, leaving behind a group of people who were amazed by Long Song's ability to refine pills.

  Just out of the factory gate, I met Long Di and his friends.

  "Captain! I heard you're refining pills again, what kind of pill did you refine this time?" Long Di asked.

  "It's nothing, just casually refining some Small Soul Pellets." Long Ge said calmly.

  "Xiao Hun Dan?" Jin Yi exclaimed in surprise.

  "This is actually a third-grade elixir!" Rose's big eyes widened even more, "We've been struggling to go home and ask for money! If we knew you could refine third-grade elixirs, why would we still ask our family for money?!"

  "Haha!" Long Song couldn't help but laugh at Rose's cute and pleasant words, "Alright, from now on if you want to buy any equipment just let me know, I'll refine a few furnaces of dan medicine and sell them to get the money. Today I still have 900,000 gold coins left from selling dan medicine!"

  In the human mainland society, there are many rich people, so banks and bank cards were born. When you have a lot of money, you can put it in the bank and exchange it for a card. Now Longge has a card with a limit of 10 million, all his money is on the card. In big cities like Beijing, you can buy things by swiping your card, very convenient! Although 9 million seems like a lot, when exchanged for a card, it feels much lighter.

  To buy high-grade elixirs and high-grade equipment, the prices are in the millions or tens of millions, so later on, Long Song will exchange his cards for ones with a limit of one billion or even ten billion, but for now, there's not enough money, and a limit of several million is sufficient.

  Long Song can also refine equipment, just waiting for an opportunity to show it off. These 900,000 are enough to buy refining materials. Materials are easy to buy but refining is difficult, otherwise high-level weapons wouldn't be worth hundreds of thousands.

  With 900,000, the Desert Eagle squad went crazy shopping. Of course, this money couldn't buy high-end weapons or high-end medicine, but the Desert Eagle squad didn't lack these either. Each person already had two gold-level equipment weapons, and with Captain Longge, it was equivalent to having a medicine library, so they wouldn't lack medicine. Now their crazy shopping spree was mainly for food and clothes.

  Arriving at the top-grade clothing store, Long Song and his group bought clothes worth 100,000 gold coins. They really could wear them!

  Arriving at the top-class hotel, Long Ge and others spent 2 million gold coins on food, including Long Ge's favorite fish, Jin Zhen's favorite barbecue, Long Di's favorite soup, Mei Gui's favorite drink. They even bought a space ring with a capacity of 100 cubic meters! The Desert Eagle team can really eat!

  After buying things, Long Ge and his friends chose a secluded corner in the hotel to discuss where they would go for their three-month training.

  Long Song flipped out the map of the human continent: in the middle was the Dragon Empire, on the left was the Fire Empire, on the right was the Water Empire, above was the Earth Empire, below was the Wood Empire, and Long Song and his party were currently in the imperial capital of the Dragon Empire.

  "To the upper left of the Dragon Empire is the Desert Sea, located at the intersection of the Fire Empire, Dragon Empire and Earth Empire. We went there for our new recruit training before, are we going again now?" Long Ge looked at the map seeking everyone's opinion.

  "No way, the desert is too hot. I just spent a month getting my skin to turn white again and I don't want to get tanned again," said Rose.

  "Hmm, I think it's not necessary to go either. We've encountered desert sea level magical beasts before, and fighting again doesn't make much sense. Moreover, our strength has increased so much now, if we're going to go, let's go somewhere a bit more challenging." Long Di also analyzed beside him.

  "Ah, good, the Qiu Lin Forest is a great choice for us. The lowest level of magical beasts there are at the Qi Ling level, and Qi Xing level magical beasts are everywhere, and even some Qi Chui level magical beasts exist. That's where we should challenge ourselves." Long Ge said, pointing to the map.

  Longdi and they looked towards the direction that Longge pointed, Qulin's forest was at the lower left of the Dragon Empire, located on the border of the Fire Empire, the Dragon Empire, and the Wood Empire.

  "Alright! Let's go there then, I want to see just how powerful my Dragon-Slaying Sword Technique and Demon-Subduing Shield Technique are!" he exclaimed excitedly.

  "I agree!" Long Di said.

  "I agree too!" Rose said.

  Long Song looked at everyone with satisfaction and said: "Great! Let's have a happy meal, and tomorrow we'll hire an airship to set off!"

  "Good!" Everyone raised their drinks and happily toasted.

  The next morning, Long Ge and his friends arrived at the Adventurer's Guild.

  The Adventurer's Guild hires people with strength or special skills to do tasks, some of which are dangerous and others not. For example, the Dragon Song wants to hire an airship to go to the edge of Chulin Forest, this task is not very dangerous, but if you hire an airship to go deep into Chulin Forest, it's a very dangerous task.

  Long Song They came to the counter of the union and asked the service staff in charge of reception about employment matters.

  "Excuse me, is there anyone willing to send us to Chulin's Forest now?" Long Ge asked politely.

  "What are you doing in the forest of Qiu Lin?" The waitress was a beautiful woman with a good figure and a sweet voice, which could attract many people. Now she was surprised to ask Long Ge and others, and from her aura level, it was still possible to see the strength of Long Ge and others.

  "Our college gives us three months to gain experience, we plan to go to Qiulin Forest for training!" Long Ge said.

  "You're just a bunch of freshmen, going to the Forest of Qiu Lin isn't about delivering vegetables to those monsters, is it? I suggest you'd better go train in the Desert Sea!" The beautiful waitress glanced at the Imperial Academy school badge on Long Ge and his friends' chests. "I know students from the Imperial Academy are very powerful, but I've seen many students like you who think they're all that, every year there are students like you, every year they go to the Forest of Qiu Lin, but every year not many of them come back!"

  The waiter drank a glass of water and continued to scold Long Ge and the others: "You elementary school students who went there are just going to send yourselves to death, and some intermediate school students who went there won't even come back!"

  "...Long Ge they listened in stunned silence for a moment, but still firmly said, "We're going to Qiulin Forest, it's okay if it's a bit dangerous."

  "Alas!" The beautiful waitress sighed, "I knew I couldn't win an argument with you young men. 500 gold coins per person, pay 2000 gold coins and I'll send you to the Hill Forest!"

  Long Song and they exchanged 2000 gold coins, then took their tickets and prepared to board the airship flying to the edge of Qiu Lin's forest.

  The beautiful and charming waitress looked at the back of Long Ge and his group, as if looking at a group of children going to their deaths. The regret in her eyes was truly beyond words!

  Walking up to the huge airship, there were already many people waiting for the airship to start, including many students from the Imperial Academy.

  These students are basically from the intermediate department, and only five are from the advanced department. I guess those five are from the same team. When these students saw Long Ge and his group arrive, they all showed a look of surprise.

  "Are you also going to Qulin Forest?" a student of the same level asked, who should be a middle school student.

  "Yes! We are going to Qulin Forest for training." Long Ge replied.

  "Haha!!" The students in both the junior and senior departments burst out laughing.

  "Is it just the primary department that dares to come to Qulin's forest for training?"

  "If I'm not mistaken, there are two second-level Qi Infants!"

  "With such strength, going to the forest of Qiu Lin is just going to die!"

  An elder from a higher department walked over and said to Long Ge, "Young friends, it's better for you to go train in the Deserted Sea. The Forest of Qiu Lin is indeed not suitable for you!"

  Will Long Ge and his men retreat in the face of danger?

  Will Long Ge and his friends change their original intention in the face of doubt?
