I Use My Secondary Job To Add Talents

Chapter 38 Opportunity

After much consideration, I finally came up with a perfect plan to escape without disappointing Ma Qingshan's expectations or causing dissatisfaction from the Huang family.

But at this moment, Song Fulu suddenly realized something. He had already drunk several pots of tea and still hadn't seen any trace of Huang Yuyan.

How long has it been since she was supposed to arrive? Two or three hours?

Song Fulu's face darkened. Although he had no feelings for Huang Yuyan and had no intention of marrying her, she was being disrespectful. Even if she didn't want to, she should at least show up.

Song Fulu had thought of various ways to reject her and reasons for doing so, but they were all useless. Huang Yuyan didn't show up and directly kicked him out.

Although his appearance in this life was average, he was still a Middle Level pharmacist. Don't treat him like a nobody.

Song Fulu finished his tea, turned around, and walked towards the outside of the Hongye Tower, quickly disappearing among the leaves.

After a while, Huang Yuyan came out of the private room on the third floor, accompanied by a maid in a green dress. "Finally, he's gone. He made me wait in the room for so long. How annoying."

"Miss, is it okay for us to do this? Song Fulu is, after all, the fourth shopkeeper of the pharmacy," the maid in the green dress expressed some concern.

Huang Yuyan sneered, "Just a pharmacist from a mountain village. If it weren't for our Huang family appreciating him, he would still be staying in the village. A toad like him dares to climb high. No need to pay attention to him."

"Well..." The maid in the green dress furrowed her brows, not knowing what to say.

Huang Yuyan glanced at her, "Do you still want me to marry such a barbarian from the mountains? Then you'll have to be a servant in the bedchamber as well. Compared to Brother Yuqiang, he is far inferior. He lacks looks, talent, and family background."

"What does he know about sitting by the lake and loving the maple trees at dusk? Does he understand what it means for the stars to shine brightly in the sky? Can he accompany me in playing the zither and painting?," Huang Yuyan asked.

The maid in the green dress nodded, "How could someone from a mountain village understand these things? But this marriage is said to have the support of the eldest young master and the shopkeeper of the pharmacy. How should we handle it if they ask?"

"There's nothing to handle. How dare they introduce such a barbarian from the mountains to me? They should be prepared for my rejection," Huang Yuyan turned and walked away. "Let's go find Brother Yuqiang. It's been more than two days since we last visited him."

The maid in the green dress sighed and quickly followed.

The news of Song Fulu being stood up by Huang Yuyan during their blind date quickly reached Ma Qingshan, who had been paying close attention to the matter. He felt guilty and hurried to see Song Fulu, even giving him a few precious prescriptions and poison formulas.

Not only that, Ma Qingshan promised to help him find a better Huang family woman and ensure that he would become a son-in-law of the Huang family. This way, he could receive better cultivation from the Huang family and gain more power and status.

Song Fulu didn't mind. Although it was a bit embarrassing, it saved him a lot of trouble. He even comforted Ma Qingshan, making him feel even more guilty.

The matter ended there, and Song Fulu's life returned to peace. He refined medicine, cultivated diligently, and improved day by day. The progress of Blood Transformation was steadily increasing, and he was unknowingly approaching completion.

During this period, Song Fulu's lifespan continued to increase, gaining an additional two years.

At this time, Song Fulu received a piece of news from Ma Qingshan that made him excited.

Several elders of the Huang family discovered a medicinal garden in the marshes surrounding Passing River City. This garden was hidden deep within the marshes and was filled with Nurturing Spirit grass.

Nurturing Spirit grass is the main ingredient used to refine Nurturing Spirit pills. With Nurturing Spirit grass, the Huang family can produce a large quantity of Nurturing Spirit pills to enhance the spiritual power of their martial artists, especially the spiritual power of the Earth Gate elders. When their spiritual power reaches a certain level, they have the possibility of advancing to the Transcendent realm.

Based on the past few months of investigation, the Huang family does not possess any spiritual cultivation techniques like sensing arts. They can only rely on pills to enhance their spiritual power. Otherwise, the Huang family would not be searching everywhere for materials to enhance their spiritual power. Now their efforts have paid off.

Nurturing Spirit pills are high-grade pills at the Mortal Level. Only high-level pharmacists can refine them. The Huang family will only entrust the refining of these pills to high-level pharmacists. However, based on Song Fulu's current display of alchemy skills, it is clear that he is not qualified to refine Nurturing Spirit pills.

Not being able to refine Nurturing Spirit pills means that Song Fulu cannot benefit from them and quickly enhance his spiritual power. This is a significant loss for Song Fulu.

After months of practicing sensing arts, Song Fulu's spiritual power has only increased by about thirty percent. This is also due to Song Fulu's cultivation talent reaching twenty-five points. No, at this moment, Song Fulu's cultivation talent has already surpassed that.

Name: Song Fulu

Lifespan: 78 years

Free Talent Points: 0 points

Cultivation Realm: Interior Refinement Fourth Layer

Cultivation Talent: 27 points (excellent)

Auxiliary Talent: 16 points (excellent)

Martial Arts Mastery: Mountain Fist (Eighth Layer), Windborne Footsteps (Perfection), Whirlwind Blade Technique (Perfection), Wind Shadow Arrow Art (Perfection), Steel Armor Technique (Perfection), Concealment Technique (Perfection).

Secondary Skills Mastery: Weapon Refining Technique (Level 7), Seed Planting Technique (Level 7), Alchemy Technique (Level 10), Beast Taming Technique (Level 7), Formation Technique (Level 8).

Compared to before, Song Fulu's cultivation talent has increased by two points, reaching twenty-seven points. This corresponds to his Alchemy Technique reaching level ten and his Formation Technique advancing to level eight.

Enhancing spiritual power is extremely difficult. With the help of Nurturing Spirit pills, Song Fulu's progress will surely increase several times over, or even more.

However, Nurturing Spirit pills are extremely rare in Passing River City and in high demand. It is very difficult to buy them, even with money. Song Fulu feels somewhat helpless.

Now that such a good opportunity is in front of him, how could Song Fulu let it slip away? He must take a share of the benefits.

With Song Fulu's level ten Alchemy Technique, he can successfully refine at least one batch of Nurturing Spirit pills out of two. The goal set by the Huang family for Zhao Jiang and Ma Qingshan is to successfully refine one batch out of four.

This means that if Song Fulu participates in the refining process, he can extract at least half of the Nurturing Spirit pills. This is not a small number.

Therefore, what Song Fulu needs to do now is to quickly demonstrate his skills as a high-level pharmacist and let everyone know that he has broken through to become a high-level pharmacist. Only then can he join in the refining of Nurturing Spirit pills.

After some consideration, Song Fulu quickly chose a time. It will be tomorrow morning, not too late.

Time waits for no one, and the quantity of Nurturing Spirit grass is limited. He must join as soon as possible. This opportunity is extremely rare. As long as he seizes it well, Song Fulu's spiritual power will definitely soar.
