Chapter 265

After he failed to concoct a High-Level Sky Grade Pill several times, without batting an eye, he turned his attention over to cultivation .

Since he had a lot of time to refine and make his cultivation stable, he thought of breaking into the next level of Essence Gathering Cultivation .

So, he used up a several hundred Low-Level Spirit Stones and reached Peak-Level Revolving Core Stage, only a step away from reaching the Body Transformation Stage .

Then, he took his chances and tried to break through into the Gold Stage but it proved futile even before he started .

He figured that it might take a year or more for him to walk that step once he actually tried .

Plus, he took his chances with Soul Forging Cultivation but that ended in failure too . He didn't use Elder Severin's Soul Essence to breakthrough because it was just too wasteful as it was a Mid-Level Elder Soul Stage Soul Essence .

Evidently, he painfully understood that as the cultivation stage increases, it takes more time for him to make it stable and robust enough to experience having a breakthrough .

He decided that it was almost time for him to start hunting down souls for the improvement of his Soul Forging Cultivation .

After all, he knew that his Soul Forging Cultivation can't be impeded because he possesses Fallen Heaven .

Plus, he had already possessed the knowledge of Soul Forging Cultivation which he gained from Old Man Garvin's teachings .

All he had to do was reach the bottleneck and digest on the insights and contents that he had in his knowledge .

However, he actually understood that even though he wouldn't be impeded, it doesn't mean that it would help him stabilize his Soul Forging Cultivation, nor increase his foundation .

That's why he needed knowledge in all fields of cultivation . More wealth meant that he could purchase more books to increase his knowledge!

That's why before hunting, he needed to put this pill profession of his to good use!

. . .

Davis gradually woke up after a long sleep of three days . His Soul Force was fully restored and he felt well-rested as well as refreshed .

Trying to concoct High-Level Sky Grade Pills for several times had exhausted him to a great degree .

He donned on the alchemist robe and went outside after leaving the residence in Natalya's care .

The reason he could leave without worrying about Natalya's safety was because he had bought a Mid-Level Sky Grade Defensive Formation, which curbed almost all Fifth Stage Cultivators from breaking the barrier .

What if Sixth Stage Cultivators attacked? He wouldn't have a chance to save her even if he was near unless they were weak in Soul Forging Cultivation .

Straightaway heading to the Thousand Pill Association, he entered the majestic structure with ease .

Like the last time, he spoke to the receptionist about the examination, but this time, he inquired about the Mid-Level Sky Grade Examination .

The receptionist answered all his questions professionally, even though she deemed that the other party couldn't possibly complete the examination .

The receptionist mentioned that there were three sections of the examination, unlike the lower level examinations .

The first test was a written test, followed by a test where one should tell the ingredients used in the pill and obviously, the last exam was to concoct a pill of the required grade .

Davis sighed thinking that it was a drag .

After this, the receptionist excused herself to inform her superiors of a candidate who was present to take the Mid-Level Sky Grade Alchemy Exam .

Davis stood in front of the reception when suddenly his eyes caught hold of a figure that he was all but familiar with!

Davis and Tina Roxley both looked and noticed each other at the same time, their expressions quite taken aback .

A moment later, he smiled wryly as he saw her walk towards him with a teasing smile on her face .

'It was a careless mistake . . . ' Davis berated himself .

He presumed that this woman probably knew that Mister Scythe and the man in VIP room 17 was the same person . She belonged to the Roxley Family and had numerous methods to check on him, even though he disguised himself .

Still, the only thing that the Roxley Family and she didn't figure out was his identity as a young man .

Tina smiled as she stood in front of him, her grin seemed to say that he messed up big time .

Her slightly V-shaped face adorned with a pair of sharp amethyst eyes, a small nose, and sweet lips made her look quite charming, to say the least .

Although she was blindingly beautiful, Davis was irked inside as he thought, 'This woman even followed me to this place? What exactly have I done to her? Why won't she leave me alone?'

He even doubted that this woman had set up people to monitor him, placed around his residence .

"This can't be a coincidence, right? It can be only said as fate . . .

" Tina slightly raised her brows as she uttered, her eyes emitting a complex gaze .

Davis replied back in that deep voice he got used to,

"Miss Tina, there's no need to go this far, right?

"

Davis straight away drove into the matter, not mincing his words .

Tina's grin left her face, replaced with a look of confusion .

Just before she could reply, the receptionist came back with an elder who looked middle-aged and quite haughty .

The elder didn't even bother to look at Davis when his eyes suddenly got hold of another figure,

"Oh! If it isn't Junior Sister Tina!

"

"Junior Tina greets Senior Brother Wade Renfield . . .

" Tina slightly bowed and uttered .

"Miss Tina, you have come! You can take the Low-Level Earth Grade Alchemy Exam you have requested for . . .

" The receptionist spoke after, grinning with a resplendent smile .

Tina nodded her head,

"Thank you, I'll take the exam as soon as I'm done here . . .

"

She turned her head and looked at Davis,

"I'm sorry, we can talk at a later time since I have an exam to complete . . .

"

Davis just nodded his head, just watching her leave the reception .

He stayed silent for a while, incredibly embarrassed! If one were to take his mask off, that person would see a bright red face painted with embarrassment in front of them .

He didn't think that she was truly here for another purpose!

Davis felt like he had lost face, it was truly a blunder on his part but the good thing was that Tina didn't seem to mind anything about his question .

'Thankfully, she brushed it off probably because of this person . ' Thinking so, Davis turned to smile at Elder Wade, whose face was quite ugly at the moment .
