BXBX NOVEL Chapter 44 - I Acted Courteously, But You..
Qin Yi feels that he is pretty busy today because his schedule is packed with visiting here and there.
After he departed from the Registration Hall, he went straight to the Mission Hall to pick up a second mission.
Unlike his previous choices, he only chose a green paper mission which was relatively safe and easy this time.
Mission: Collect 150 logs and hand them over to Elder Ji. Requirements: One.
Reward: 2 Merit Points.
Such poor reward, but Qin Yi took it without hesitation.
There are similar missions with more rewards, but they require a group to take them.
But when he looked at the missions in more detail, almost all of them were only half-filled. It takes some time for them to meet the complete requirements.
Therefore, he chose a solo mission.
Even though it was a bit of a hassle to chop down trees alone, at least he was confident that he could complete the mission today.
In addition, he could also do it while practicing archery in the woods behind the martial arts ground.
Qin Yi registered this mission with the female clerk. But this time, he didn't see Qiao Na.
Maybe it is not her shift today.
The female clerk clarified the contents of the green paper Qin Yi gave, "The mission to collect 150 logs. After that, hand them over to Elder Ji in the Resource Hall."
After that, she stamped the mission paper and handed it back to Qin Yi.
"Don't forget to report it back to the Mission Hall after you complete the mission!"
"I Understand!"
Not long after, Qin Yi exited the Mission Hall and headed straight for the woods behind the martial arts ground.
Once there, he took out the QuickWind Bow from the system storage.
Concentrating his mind and his eyes, Qin Yi used more of his Qi on his arrow and merged the Spiral Arrow skill with his heart.
Shoosh—
Crash!
The target within 50 meters of him immediately collapsed.
Although this archery technique is quite simple, the power generated by it was no joke.
One shot could tear down a large tree, and anyone who dares to underestimate it will surely suffer a loss.
After that, Qin Yi started to set his goal to shoot a thousand arrows as usual.
After a few hours, it was not known how many trees had fallen due to his shooting.
If anyone were to come here, they would be shocked by how much chaos Qin Yi had wrought to make this area almost bare.
Fortunately, after he tea- cough cuts the trees, he immediately replaces them with the new trees he made with the Raising Wood Technique.
It could be said that he is a nature lover.
He then chopped the trees into logs.
Qin Yi didn't chop many logs, only 75 pieces.
After he assembled the logs in one area, he immediately asked the system to extract them.
A second later, he took out 75 logs from his system storage and gathered them with the other 75 logs.
With this, he managed to collect 150 pieces of wood.
Qin Yi patted the dust on his hands and nodded in satisfaction, "Humu, mission complete!"
Just as he was about to put the logs into his storage bag, he suddenly froze.
He suddenly remembered that the storage bag he was currently wearing had only one cubic-sized space. It was impossible to stuff 150 pieces of wood into it; otherwise, the space inside would collapse immediately.
All the storage bags he extracted from others have the same quality; the space was no more than one cubic.
If he wanted to use an even better space artifact, he had to buy a space artifact called the Space Ring.
However, as far as Qin Yi knew, only the inner sect disciples and elders could afford such space artifacts.
If an outer sect disciple wanted to obtain it, they would have to exchange it with enormous wealth.
However, it was very difficult to obtain one with the poor condition of the outer sect disciples unless they came from a wealthy background.
"Forget it, I'll keep them in the Mystical Garden first, then hand them over to the Resource Hall tomorrow."
As he decided on his plan, he sucked the logs into the Mystical Garden.
After finishing his work here, he headed straight for Spirit Flower Peak since the sun was about to set.
***
In the Hundred Flowers Garden, Qin Yi met Xue Chan again.
Out of his expectations, Xue Chan actually asked if he went to the Registration Hall to test the secondary profession potential or not.
Since there was nothing to cover up, Qin Yi naturally answered her questions.
In the next second, Xue Chan's face was filled with shock as if she could hardly believe what she had just heard.
"Congratulations, Fellow Disciple Qin, having the potential of a secondary profession is worth celebrating. As a senior in the Alchemist field, you can ask me a few questions, and I'll do my best to answer them."
Even though she was surprised, she still congratulated him nevertheless.
It's good to have fellow disciples who have talent in Alchemist; they can exchange ideas and knowledge with each other in the future.
Of course, with Qin Yi's current level, he couldn't possibly reach the upper hand in their discussion. In fact, he will probably ask more than answer.
Nonetheless, Xue Chan had to leave pleasantries with this Fellow Disciple of hers.
Qin Yi laughed and said unabashedly, "Thank you, Fellow Disciple Xue. I am still a newbie and ignorant about this field. However, since Fellow Disciple Xu said this, I will not hesitate to ask what I have doubts about now and in the future."
Xue Chan twitched the corner of her mouth,
She was speechless.
I only said that as a courtesy, but you took it as a grant.
Where did your courtesies from yesterday go?
In spite of that, Xue Chang decided to keep smiling and patiently answered some of the questions Qin Yi threw at her.
Luckily the questions were easy, and she could answer them. Otherwise, she'd better choose to leave than stay here any longer.
About an hour later, Xue Chan left with a tired face.
Teaching a junior is quite tiring!
When Qin Yi was left alone in the garden hut, he fell into deep thoughts.
According to what Xue Chan had said, in order to start learning Alchemist, he should at least have a furnace and some common and inexpensive pill materials.
These things are not a problem for him.
For the Furnace, he has not one but three of them. They were Normal Artifacts that he extracted from the Treasure Pavilion.
As for ordinary and cheap pill materials, he didn't lack them either, as he had dozens of them in the system storage.
What he lacks is knowledge and experience.
Xue Chan said that the basic knowledge of concocting a pill could be read in Elder Gu's book.
Even so, it's still not enough for him to learn how to concoct pills in such a short amount of time correctly.
Even Xue Chan had spent almost two years learning to concoct pills, and she still hasn't succeeded at that.
This matter happened because there was no experienced person to teach her. The sect's support seemed to be nothing more than giving away some basic Alchemist's knowledge and how-to-concoct-pills books.
Everything she has achieved to date is self-taught
And the result is crude and ineffective.
If Qin Yi and Xue Chan wanted to get teachings from experienced people, they had to go to Wondrous Pills Peak.
But the Wondrous Pills Peak is located in the inner sect. If people like the two of them wanted to enter there, they should at least have the official status of the Apprentice Alchemist from the Secondary Professional Association.
Other than that, the two of them had to become inner sect disciples first.
For Xue Chan, becoming an inner sect disciple was extremely difficult. Even if she succeeded, it would surely take years, even decades.
But for Qin Yi, it was not an impossible thing to do in a short time.
But by doing so meant that he was ready to expose the extraordinariness and the secret of him that he had carefully guarded for two and a half years to the sect.
However, doing that for the sake of obtaining teachings from the Wondrous Pills Peak was... an absurd plan.
Qin Yi certainly wouldn't do that.
He's better off self-taught.
Even though it might be difficult and slow, it was a safe route for the situation he was in right now.
With the help of the system, unwavering hard work and keep being steady, he was sure that his achievements would be no less than his peers that were already far ahead of him.
