Chapter 776 Impossible to Learn, Pharmacist Profession Promotion

“Pharmacist Yang, the Holy Land has arranged for another group to enter the Demon Cave!”

“Hall Master Gu An is going with them!”

“Apparently, the first group that went in lured out some powerful members of the Earth Demon Alien Race from inside the Demon Cave. Now, they’re planning to completely annihilate them!”

Han Bingyu was reporting the latest intelligence she had on the Demon Cave and the Holy Land to Yang Chan. She had come to deliver it the moment she got her hands on it.

She made a point to highlight the news concerning Gu An.

Han Bingyu knew about the relationship between Yang Chan and Gu An, so she paid special attention when gathering information.

“What were the Holy Land’s casualties inside the Demon Cave?”

Yang Chan asked, looking at Han Bingyu.

“There are no exact numbers, but it’s said that more than half of them died!”

Han Bingyu replied immediately. This was something she had been following closely, which was why she could answer Yang Chan’s question without hesitation.

“More than half… That’s much higher than I expected!”

Yang Chan was surprised to hear this.

The situation in the Demon Cave was even more troublesome than he had anticipated. It had only just begun, yet the casualties were already this high. As the campaign pressed on and the fighting grew more intense, he could only imagine how high the casualty rate would climb. It was very likely that for every four or five people who entered, only one would return alive!

Of course, it would all depend on the specific circumstances of the Merak Sacred Land and the Demon Cave.

“The first group was ambushed by the Earth Demon Alien Race inside the Demon Cave, which is why the casualties were so high!”

“A Blood Exchange Martial Saint Level expert has already made a move, but a victor has yet to be decided!”

Han Bingyu continued to share what she knew, all information she had gathered through her own channels.

The Merak Sacred Land had also made arrangements to monitor the situation inside the Demon Cave, allowing them to prepare their countermeasures in advance!

“With this next group going in, it’s estimated that Supreme Elders and other high-ranking members will have to get involved. The battle will likely become even more brutal!”

The moment a Blood Exchange Martial Saint Level expert took action, Han Bingyu knew the scale of the conflict would only grow.

She had also investigated the aftermath of the previous clash between the Blood Exchange Martial Saint Level experts. Their combat power was terrifying, and in the face of such immense strength, one could only feel a sense of powerlessness.

The gap was so vast that it was impossible to even think of resisting!

“Even the Blood Exchange Martial Saint Level is getting involved… The conflict is escalating much faster than I thought!”

Yang Chan’s brow furrowed slightly.

The Merak Sacred Land’s approach to the Demon Cave was extremely decisive, with no hesitation whatsoever.

They said they would eradicate it, and they immediately committed immense force, not bothering with various probing tactics.

Then again, one couldn’t afford to be sluggish when dealing with the Alien Race from the Demon Cave. It was just like when the Alien Race had previously appeared on the Taiyu Divine Continent; the major powers had swiftly joined forces to annihilate them, handling the threat with extreme efficiency.

Otherwise, if the Alien Race were given more time, there was no telling what they might have accomplished.

“Is there any other intelligence?”

Yang Chan asked, looking at Han Bingyu.

“Not at the moment!”

“The intelligence I’ve brought you now came through the Holy Land’s channels. I can only learn more once the Holy Land relays new information from the Demon Cave!”

Han Bingyu shook her head and explained.

She had asked Yang Chan before if she should arrange for her own people to go in, but he had told her it wasn’t necessary.

Of course, looking at it now, more than half of anyone sent in would die, and even if they survived, whether they could get any intelligence out was another question.

“I understand. Continue to monitor the situation in the Demon Cave.”

Yang Chan nodded, showing he understood.

The scale of the battle in the Demon Cave was immense and could potentially affect the Holy Land, even though the fighting was taking place deep underground.

However, Yang Chan didn’t have the power to change the outcome.

As for Gu An going in, he had already prepared the Recovery Spirit Pills for him. The rest was up to Gu An himself.

‘Time to get back to Alchemy. My Daily Potential Point Collection has been increasing steadily, which means my Pharmacist profession is about to advance!’

‘I’ll focus on advancing my Pharmacist profession first. Then I’ll be even more proficient with my Alchemy!’

Yang Chan thought to himself as he watched Han Bingyu leave.

Over the past few days, Yang Chan had been attempting to refine the Water Rhythm Marrow Replenishing Pill, and he had finally succeeded.

A Top Quality Water Rhythm Marrow Replenishing Pill provided him with a Daily Potential Point Collection of 3.8, bringing his total to 44.8.

‘At this rate, I’ll probably advance sometime after midnight!’

Because the Potential Point values were only approximations, even if there was a discrepancy, it would be extremely small. Therefore, Yang Chan wasn’t sure of the exact time his Pharmacist profession would advance, but overall, it would only be a difference of a day at most.

It wouldn’t have a major impact on him; after all, he wasn’t in a rush for a single day.

No matter how intense the battle in the Demon Cave became, as long as the Merak Sacred Land showed no signs of decline, the impact on him would be minimal.

At most, he would have to spend time that would have been used for refining other elixirs on making Recovery Spirit Pills instead, stockpiling strategic supplies for the Merak Sacred Land’s war effort.

‘Once my Pharmacist profession advances, I’ll continue to raise my Martial Arts Cultivation. In the end, absolute strength is the only thing that provides a true sense of security!’

Previously, Yang Chan had always focused on raising his Martial Arts Cultivation, which was why his progress had been so fast. This time, he had spent a while improving his Pharmacist profession as a way to prepare for the future.

Within the Merak Sacred Land, his Pharmacist profession gave him a sense of security. At the same time, advancing it would also make his status even more transcendent.

However, while his plans were well-laid, the situation in the Merak Sacred Land was also changing rapidly.

This campaign against the Alien Race in the Demon Cave, for instance, was a development he had not anticipated at all.
