22 Han Fu Confidence

"In the Wing Sect alchemist are rare. Feng Yanlei maybe is the most talented disciple ever in the Wing Sect ever had in this world. But in the heaven, they have a lot of fighter that is just as talented as she is." Han Fu expression never change when he said it, calm and confident.

"How did you know all that?" Lu Yan still curious about it.

"The patriarchs of course. They gave me a lot of books about alchemy from the heaven. One of those is how to make a soul coagulation pill. Surely, I cannot make it here, since the ingredients and tools to make it are heaven made. They are considered rare as well in the heaven, so asking the patriarch to borrow it here is impossible. Despite all that there is one thing I am sure about. Given the right ingredients and tools, I will be able to make those pills and make it better than all of those ever given here." If it was anyone else say that Lu Yan will not believe them, but Han Fu has all the knowledge to back up his claim.

"I came up with a theory that all those pills brought here into our world are low quality. The patriarchs have confirmed this theory. Everyone that want to become a legit alchemist in the heaven has to passed an exam. For our sect those exams are the making of Soul Coagulation pill. Those pills from the exams are flawed as they most likely are the first soul coagulation pill they ever make, and these pills are those given to us here." Higher quality potion gives higher chance of success, with the low-quality pills no wonder the success rate is low as well for the disciples here in this world.

"Wow, they are totally unfair." Lu Yan hating the fact, that they not giving them a fair treatment to develop.

"Well it is not totally their fault. The patriarchs are all too old when they reach the heaven and so cannot develop their cultivation further. With them as an example those gods cannot possible invest more to us. Someone like Feng Yanlei can slowly change their view on us."

"Slowly?" Lu Yan cut him spontaneously, he still acting weirdly every time Feng Yanlei's name is mentioned.

"Yes, I know I might sound like I'm bragging myself too much. You ask before about my confidence, but the importance of an alchemist is so big in our sect. They even hired some outside help as of now. As soon as I got there, I will become one of them. Then it is possible for me to distribute some potions I made here. That is why even though almost all of the masters wants Feng Yanlei as the next candidate, the patriarchs never bother with it." Han Fu hesitate a little bit to continue his bragging. A part of him proud of it, while the other getting embarrassed.

"Still why are you not start your secluded meditation as soon as you got chosen? Why still give lectures and such?" If he so confident, he might just start doing it and maybe finish by now. The wait can only mean he is unsure about something.

"Yes, there is a problem. You are quite sharp. It just that my Soul Coagulation Pill is so flawed, I wonder how the person make it qualify as an alchemist. Well I cannot say about if other pills are like this, however I already study this pill in books all this time. So, I know exactly the quality of the pill I got. All this time I use everything I know to enhance the pill and make it a better one. Sure, there are rare ingredients that cannot brought here from the heaven, but for some common one the patriarchs can provide it for me. With their help I finally able to make my pill much better." This part of news has made Lu Yan respect him even more.

Potions enhancement is a thing. Although you cannot make a perfect one from it, it helps in some situations. However, this is not an ordinary pill. This is the pill that is come from another world.

Not only it is the first time Han Fu ever see it, even all the ingredients are unfamiliar to him. The closest he can get is a description from books. With that little information and experience he has to modify the one pill he got.

Perfect amount of ingredients and technique has to be applied. One mistake and the pill might break, once it happens who knows when he will get it again. Even the most genius person will have to think twice about it.

"You already succeed to enhance the pill? Are you really sure about it, I mean if you fail..." Lu Yan cannot finish his sentence, as he afraid to disrespectful towards him.

"I already enhance it once, but I will try the second process before I consume it. I cannot succeed with the pill they gave me. Except of the most talented people, there is hope at all. If it is the same quality of pill given to Yan Zuo, no wonder he failed before. He might not realize it, but as an alchemist, I cannot rest my fate on a flawed pill like that. Meditating and alchemy, both are part of cultivation. If I have to choose one I am more confident with my alchemy than anything else." There is truth in his words.

Everyone having their own weakness and strength. When time got hard you have to use your strength to overcome your weakness, rather to give up on the situation.

Many people consider Han Fu is weak and timid for someone at the very peak of cultivation level.

Ps: Yes, in this world the peak of Qi Absorption Technique is already considered the peak of cultivation

Lu Yan just realize all of it is untrue. His strength is just happened to be different than most of other people. He also certainly a brave one, it just that every action he takes has to think through every time. Han Fu will not blindly do something before he is doing some research first. Being brave doesn't mean it equal to being stupid. Han Fu is like the thin line that differentiate both traits.

"So, these lectures you give. Is there another meaning in it? Other than to reduce your stress level, of course." From their conversation Lu Yan realize that Han Fu will never do anything without any intention.

"Relieving my stress is one of that, but mostly is to look people like you. Someone that have another point of view in alchemy. Rare as it is, there still is someone in this world that can help me understand alchemy even further. You are one of those rare people." Lu Yan feel he gain a lot of things from Han Fu, while giving so little. It is indeed the truth, but for people like Han Fu that little knowledge given to him is huge. At his level of understanding in alchemy, this world almost unable to provide more to that.

This is why Han Fu become as great as he is right now. Many people will calculate the details of how much he gives and how much he takes. Who is benefit more from their exchange. They will not do the exchange at all if the other party will benefit more than they are. In the end nobody got the benefit, which also mean their loss.

Han Fu is not that kind of person. He always eager to learn no matter how small it is. He understands the more you know the less you can learn. He never calculating which side get more benefit, as long as he can get some is enough for him. If the other side can get something from him, he will just be happy about it.

This is a form of confidence that Han Fu has. He is never envy others, their ordeal is their own. He is good at one thing and will try his best to get better at that. There is no end to cultivation and so alchemy, nobody can know everything. So, the only things to do is to learn something new every day, no matter who give you the lesson.

Lu Yan get out of Han Fu place much wiser than before he came in. Their conversation has opened his mind further. Not just in alchemy but in a way of life and a new view on what a heaven really is. All he has to do now is to apply all those into his life.
