“I’m fine. Your learning speed is too fast. The speed of my great-aunt’s teaching is almost unable to catch up with your learning speed. This is really unbelievable.”

“Grandaunt, you flatter me. I’ve seen these techniques and skills for handling medicinal herbs in the stone building and remembered them at that time. That’s why I can learn them so quickly now.”

Six hours later!

“I’m fine. Is this really your first time dealing with medicinal ingredients? Why do you know so many things that my great-aunt has never taught you? Could it be that you have memorized all the books on how to deal with medicinal ingredients in the stone tower?”

“Grandaunt, you flatter me. I only remembered a portion of it, not even one-tenth of it. It’s far from being comparable to Grandaunt. However, I’m very interested in this area, so it’s not surprising that I remember a little too much.”

12 hours later!

“Aunt thinks that you know everything I know. It’s as if you’re helping Aunt revise her lessons instead of teaching you. It’s too strange.”

“If it wasn’t for my great-aunt’s personal guidance and practice, I wouldn’t have improved so quickly. Therefore, all of this is thanks to my great-aunt.”

Two days later!

“I’m fine. Grandaunt feels that my fifty years of training in handling medicinal ingredients have all been spent on dogs. It can’t even compare to the medicinal pill records that you’ve read for a few months. You can even point out the errors in Grandaunt’s body. You can handle these medicinal ingredients. I feel that you have already completed your apprenticeship. Moreover, you have surpassed your master. I will go and rest for a while…”

Looking at Zhu Wanzi, who was a little dizzy and didn’t seem to believe what was happening in front of her, Zhu Wuwan couldn’t help but laugh bitterly. It wasn’t a good thing to learn things too quickly. It almost scared her aunt silly.

Moreover, Zhu Wuwan had already suppressed her speed. Otherwise, it would be too exaggerated and she would easily be suspected. At the same time, she would also be targeted by the Zhen Clan.

But even so, Zhu Wanzi was still frightened to this extent. It seemed that he was right to hide his strength.

At this moment, whether it was the ability to identify medicinal herbs or the ability to handle medicinal herbs, Zhu Wuwan was not inferior to an ordinary official alchemist. Whether it was theory or practice, she was even better to a certain extent.

The only thing that Zhu Wuyang lacked now was the ability to fight in actual combat. In other words, she had to personally refine pills. This was also the most important thing for an alchemist.

However, as an apprentice apothecary who had just entered Huo Yuan Peak, it was obviously not an easy thing to get the opportunity to refine pills personally.

Under normal circumstances, Zhu Wuyang would have to endure for at least half a year before he was qualified to try refining some ungraded pills. As long as he could successfully refine a few pills, it meant that Zhu Wuyang had stepped into the ranks of alchemy apprentices and would be recognized by everyone.

However, how could Zhu Wuwan wait for such a long time? Therefore, he was prepared to find an opportunity to secretly try refining a few kinds of pills. He would first reveal the strength of an apprentice alchemist. This way, he would be able to obtain more resources and opportunities.

Because of Zhu Wanwan’s ability, Zhu Wanzi felt much more relaxed. She was no longer as tired as usual and had a lot of time to rest. She also took out her old alchemy tools under Zhu Wanwan’s tutelage and took the time to teach Zhu Wanwan official alchemy techniques.

Even though Zhu Wanzi knew that Zhu Wuyan was talented in alchemy, in Zhu Wanzi’s opinion, it would take at least a few months for Zhu Wuyan to successfully refine a pill and step into the threshold of an apprentice alchemist.

Zhu Wanzi had never thought that Zhu Wuyang would ‘step into’ the ranks of apprentice alchemists in just a few days.

While sorting and processing the medicinal herbs, Zhu Wuwan naturally wouldn’t forget to fill her own pockets. She took three pieces of each medicinal herb and placed them in a hidden place.

Zhu Wuyang did not consume these medicinal herbs immediately. Instead, he stored them all and prepared to wait for the right opportunity to increase his strength in one go.

After all, he didn’t dare to increase his strength without restraint to avoid exposing any flaws and attracting the Zhen Clan’s attention.

Moreover, while Zhu Wuyang was sorting and processing the medicinal herbs, he had already noticed that there were spies from the Zhen Family secretly observing him to see if there was anything suspicious about him.

Therefore, Zhu Wuan was also worried that these Zhen Clan members would have detection magic tools on them, which would expose his true strength.

At this moment, the higher Zhu Wuyang’s strength increased, the greater the possibility of being exposed.

Since that was the case, why not temporarily store the things that could increase his strength? When it was safe later, he could increase it in one fell swoop.

However, even though Zhu Wuwan had deliberately suppressed the increase in his strength, his strength was still increasing very quickly. Many small things in his daily life could bring him breakthrough stones.

” Congratulations to the host for processing the crocus for the first time in your life. You have received 0.5 Breakthrough Stones…”

“Congratulations to the host for hiding the residue of the Explosive Qi Pill for the first time in your life. You have obtained a breakthrough stone ?”

” Congratulations to the host for hiding a thousand-year-old ginseng for the first time in your life. You have obtained two Breakthrough Stones…”

The longer Zhu Wuyang stayed in Huoyuan Peak, the bolder he became. The things he dared to hide became more and more precious. He even hid some of the residue of some medicinal pills and some of the medicinal pills that had been refined to waste. Of course, it was those that were harmless to the body.

Although these dregs and waste pills did not have much medicinal power, they could still bring Zhu Wuwan a lot of breakthrough stones.

After all, how could using a useless pill and using a good pill give the same impression?

Some of the useless pills could even make Zhu Wuyang have diarrhea for two days. This way, the impression would be even deeper, and Zhu Wuyang would be able to obtain more breakthrough stones.

Zhu Wuan was an invincible cultivator in the Aura Refining realm. His status was extraordinary, his strength was quite strong, and his physical fitness was amazing. If he could cause him to have diarrhea once, how could the impact be small?

Of course, if Zhu Wuyang was ruthless enough, she could also do some things that were not so friendly to herself, such as drawing a ghost face for herself, braiding herself, or shaving her head…Even if he couldn’t finish writing a book, he would enter the palace and become a eunuch…This way, he would definitely be able to obtain a large number of breakthrough stones, allowing his strength to soar.

It was just that unless Zhu Wuyang’s brain was filled with water, she wouldn’t easily do such a thing. Of course, if she really encountered some circumstances that forced her, Zhu Wuyang wouldn’t hesitate to be ruthless to herself. For example, a few months ago in the Nine Zhao Imperial Palace, in order to avoid suspicion, Zhu Wuyang didn’t hesitate to shave her head.

Until now, Zhu Wuyan’s hair had not fully grown and was only a few inches long. She had to wear a hat every day. Otherwise, it would be too strange, at least for the disciples of Hundred Poisons.
