Unrivaled Medicine God, page 251
Yet, he had never heard before that drinking this Immortal Remembrance Jade Brew actually had so many details to pay attention to.
"The fragrance that southern sandalwood gives off when mingled together with this wine will make the flavor even stronger when it enters your mouth. Furthermore, low-grade Immortal Remembrance Jade Brew still has some impurities. Cups constructed out of Southern Sandalwood can slightly cleanse these impurities, making the taste of the Immortal Remembrance Jade Brew even more fragrant," Ye Yuan explained.
"There's actually such attention to detail? Cups made from Southern Sandalwood, I actually have them here. It's just that I thought all along that jade material wine cups are more suited for the Immortal Remembrance Jade Brew, and that wood material cups will spoil the taste of the Immortal Remembrance Jade Brew. Hence, I've never used it to drink. Today, hearing Younger Brother say this, I really have to give it a try."
Wu Xuan ran into the room. Soon enough, he really brought out two wooden cups.
Pouring the wine in, Wu Xuan moved the cup in front of his face and sniffed. His eyes involuntarily lit up, "It's really more fragrant compared to before!"
Following that, he sipped a mouthful of wine. A look as if he was walking on clouds immediately appeared on his face, like he was really comfortable to the max.
Wu Xuan did not speak. He just took a sip one after another in this manner and drank this cup of wine entirely in just a short while.
Ye Yuan smiled. Likewise, he picked up his cup but downed it all at once.
This low-grade Immortal Remembrance Jade Liquid, Ye Yuan simply could not be bothered to savor the wine.
In his previous life, what Ye Yuan drank were all heaven-grade Immortal Remembrance Jade Liquid. The taste was on a completely different level from this low-grade one.
He placed the cup on the table, and gave Ye Yuan a big thumbs up as he praised, "Using southern sandalwood cups to hold the wine, the taste and flavor improved at least 10% from before! Younger Brother, you're truly impressive!"
Ye Yuan chuckled and said, "Elder Brother don't make fun of me. Little Brother, I, merely just happened to know it, that's all."
But Wu Xuan said with a laugh, "As far as I know it, in this Endless Forest, only Fu Yunjing alone knows how to brew this wine. He also accidentally obtained this secret recipe in a cave somewhere when he was wandering the Endless Forest in his early years. That secret formula also stated that the Immortal Remembrance Jade Brew is divided into five grades. It's just that the secret recipe only had the brewing method for the low-grade on it. The middle-grade's brewing method was incomplete. I see that Younger Brother seems to be very familiar with this Immortal Remembrance Jade Brew. Could it be that . . . you've drunk this wine before in the past?"
Ye Yuan knew that Wu Xuan was trying to understand his background by beating around the bush, so he said with a smile, "Not only have I drank it before, I even know how to brew it. If Elder Brother is interested, I can pass this low-grade brewing method to Elder Brother."
Wu Xuan nearly jumped up when he heard that and said excitedly, "Is Younger Brother for real?"
Ye Yuan said with a smile, "Look at what you're saying. Would I scam Elder Brother?"
"That's great! Haha! Fu Yunjing that old fellow is always showing off his Immortal Remembrance Jade Brew in front of me. Wait until I brew this Immortal Remembrance Jade Brew. See if he still dares to show off in front of me!"
Wu Xuan was like a kid in a fit of pique right now, wishing to run in front of Fu Yunjing to posture a round right away.
Seems like Wu Xuan had most likely been nursing grievances in front of that Fu Yunjing for a very long time!
Thinking about it, that was right. This low-grade Immortal Remembrance Jade Brew was naturally not considered much in Ye Yuan's eyes. But in the Endless World, it was a top-grade fine wine.
Fu Yunjing possessing such a secret recipe and showing it off a bit in front of his companions was also human nature.
Furthermore, it seemed like that Fu Yunjing and Wu Xuan were both people who loved alcohol greatly. Otherwise, Wu Xuan could not possibly have southern sandalwood wine cups here.
"This low-grade Immortal Remembrance Jade Brew's brewing method seems to have some flaws. The taste doesn't seem to be very orthodox. Elder Brother, when you use my method to brew this wine, I presume that the taste should be able to be improved tremendously," Ye Yuan said with a smile.
. . . . . .
While Ye Yuan and Wu Xuan, the two of them were drinking wine and having a good talk, Cao Fang currently had his nose pointed at by Cao Zheng, and the former was being scolded severely.
"You fool! You knew perfectly well that that boy is the honored guest that the Three Sects and Ren Xingchun invited, and you actually dared to use this kind of method to provoke him! Are you going to squander away all the reputation that my Cao Family has garnered for thousands of years? If the Thousand Query Wall collapses, my Cao Family will no longer have the opportunity to rise up again! Do you understand?! How many times have I told you, don't hang out with those riffraff friends! Place your sights on Ren Dong! If you're unable to surpass him, my Cao Family will continue to be suppressed by the Ren Family!"
Cao Zheng had a face like he had expected better from him. Clearly, he was greatly exasperated by Cao Fang.
The swelling on Cao Fang's face had long subsided. But that five fingerprint mark still remained on his face.
Being reproached badly by Cao Zheng at this time, how could he dare to talk back?
Cao Zheng scolded for a long time before saying fiercely, "Tomorrow, you bring along gifts and personally go to Feng Ya Pavilion to apologize to Ye Yuan! You must get his forgiveness! Otherwise, if he throws a tantrum and doesn't take part in the Endless Meet the day after tomorrow, you'll be smacked to death by Qin Hongtao the three of them!"
Chapter 516. Not Allowed to Vie for Masters with Me |
At the City Lord Manor.
A bout of wild laughter came from inside Ren Dong's pill refining room.
"Hahaha! I finally succeeded! I finally succeeded!"
Ren Dong looked at a transcendent-grade Tier 1 medicinal pill in his hand in a frenzied state.
"Turns out that Lesser Phaseless Art can really refine transcendent-grade medicinal pills! Looks like I, this high-rank Quasi-Alchemy King, am utterly unworthy of the title! Even the Lesser Phaseless Art can refine transcendent-grade medicinal pills. It can be seen that along the way, I've missed out too many things! Ye Yuan, you this master, I'm acknowledging you for sure!" Ren Dong sucked in a deep breath and muttered under his breath.
Bang!
Ren Dong opened the pill refining room's door and ran out like a gust of wind.
"Little Dong, where are you doing?" A kind sounding voice was heard, stopping Ren Dong.
"Aunt, I'm going out to do something important. I'll come and pay respects to Aunt after I return! I'm going first!" Ren Dong's footsteps did not even stop and directly dashed out far away.
"This child!" The woman gave a melancholic sigh.
If Ye Yuan were here, he would surely be happy. This woman was exactly the mother that he yearned for day and night, Ren Hongling!
"Sigh. I also don't know how Yuan-er is like as of late. He's no longer who he was now. He should be living very well, right?" Ren Hongling murmured to herself.
Ren Hongling was grounded by Ren Xingchun and was only permitted to move about within the tall walls.
There were only two people on her mind. One was the Ye Hang who was imprisoned by Ren Xingchun. The other was naturally her son, Ye Yuan.
In her home, the person Ren Hongling liked the most was Ren Dong this nephew. Because every time she saw Ren Dong, it was as if seeing Ye Yuan.
She came to find Ren Dong today because she wanted to make him go and beg her father, Ren Xingchun, again, to let him spare Ye Hang.
Who knew that Ren Dong was in a rush and directly ran off.
Ren Hongling was helpless and could only go back.
. . . . . .
Cao Fang followed the servants into Feng Ya Pavilion one step at a time. When he had just entered the backyard, he heard a hearty laughter.
"Hahaha! With this recipe, the expression on Fu Yunjing that old punk's face will definitely be very interesting to look at! He keeps the Immortal Remembrance Jade Brew recipe like a treasure, showing off in front of me every day. This time, I'll see how he still show off!" Wu Xuan said with a big laugh.
Hearing Ye Yuan say that he had the recipe, Wu Xuan directly drank and finished the six bottles of low-grade Immortal Remembrance Jade Brew with Ye Yuan yesterday.
He came to find Ye Yuan today to get the recipe.
"Elder Brother, this low-grade Immortal Remembrance Jade Brew isn't considered much. It only needs half a month to finish fermenting. But it won't do for brewing the middle-grade one. For the middle-grade quality, it needs half a year. Anyhow, you gather the ingredients according to the recipes that I gave you. After half a year, forget about that Fu Yunjing, even Lord Chairman will probably come to request from you as well," Ye Yuan said with a smile.
Upon hearing this middle-grade Immortal Remembrance Jade Brew, Wu Xuan's saliva almost drooled down.
According to what Ye Yuan said, the taste of the middle-grade Immortal Remembrance Jade Brew surpassed the low-grade one by ten times!
The low-grade was already so delicious. What will the taste of that middle-grade be like?
Thinking about it made people long for it endlessly!
"Young Master Ye Yuan, the Cao Family's Third Young Master is here."
"En. Let him come in then. Call Grand Elder Skymaple over too," Ye Yuan casually instructed.
Cao Fang came before Ye Yuan with a nasty look. He never could have thought that Ye Yuan would actually address Master Wu Xuan with such great familiarity.
Wu Fang City was an Alchemy Sovereign expert. His status in Wu Fang City carried weight.
He himself always observed a pupil's manners in front of Wu Xuan, but Ye Yuan could already address him like brothers.
"Ye . . . Ye Yuan, yesterday . . . yesterday's matters, it was my wrong! Please . . . Please forgive me!" Cao Fang contorted his face and stammered as he said to Ye Yuan.
Ye Yuan shot him a glance and said indifferently, "You didn't do anything to me. Whether I forgive or not doesn't matter. As long as Grand Elder Skymaple can forgive you, I have nothing to say."
Every injustice had its perpetrator, every debt its debtor. Ye Yuan was not a petty person. He only wanted to get justice on Skymaple's behalf.
If Skymaple really suffered some serious injuries, Ye Yuan naturally would not let Cao Fang off easily. But Skymaple only suffered some hardships yesterday and did not receive any substantial wounds. Since Cao Fang paid a visit to apologize, this matter was also considered to have passed.
Of course, it was also Ye Yuan reaching there in a timely manner. Or else, if he were too late, what would have happened was really hard to say.
While talking, Skymaple just happened to be called out too.
"The main guy is here. Whether he forgives you or not will depend on your sincerity," Ye Yuan said coolly.
Hearing Ye Yuan's words, Skymaple immediately understood what was going on. He could not help looking at Ye Yuan in surprise.
A colossal giant like the Cao Family would actually apologize to a little Alchemy King like him! This had to be said to be immense face for Skymaple.
Cao Fang gritted his teeth and lowered his head as he bowed towards Skymaple. He said, "Cao Fang was impulsive yesterday and offended Elder Skymaple. Elder, please don't blame."
As he said, Cao Fang held a storage ring in his palm and said, "Inside this storage ring are 100 thousand high-grade essence crystals and also some healing medicinal pills. Cao Fang hopes to compensate for the mistake made yesterday."
Skymaple looked at Ye Yuan. He saw Ye Yuan nodded slightly. Skymaple then said, "Forget it, forget it; this matter is over."
Cao Fang was overjoyed when he heard that and could not help turning his head to look at Ye Yuan.
Ye Yuan took over the storage ring from Cao Fang's hands and said, "Third Young Master Cao, don't blame me for shooting my mouth. People like Mao Yuanji, you'd best hang out with them less. Otherwise, there will come a day where you'll suffer a huge loss."
Cao Fang nodded repeatedly and was just about to withdraw, but he saw Ren Dong dash inside like a gust of wind.
"Master! I did it, Master!" Ren Dong's person had yet to arrive, and his voice reached already.
While talking, Ren Dong already came before Ye Yuan and said with an excited look, "Master, I did it! I did it! Now, you can take me in as a disciple, right?"
Cao Fang could not help jumping in fright when he heard Ren Dong's words, "What? You . . . You want to acknowledge him as your master?"
When Ren Dong heard that, he was stunned too, "Mm? Cao Fang, why are you here too?"
"I . . ."
Cao Fang had yet to speak when Ren Dong's expression changed as he said, "You aren't trying to acknowledge Ye Yuan as your master too, right? You're not allowed to vie for Master with me! Humph, I'm telling you, even if Master agrees to take you in, I'm also your senior!"
Cao Fang was thrown in confusion by Ren Dong. Even his brain was somewhat short-circuited.
Ren Dong's strength was even greater than his, and he even had a peak Alchemy Sovereign grandfather. He actually wanted to acknowledge Ye Yuan as master?
Ye Yuan scolded with a smile when he heard that, "What nonsense is this? Cao Fang came to find me for other matters. You said that you can do it but seeing is believing. However, this Feng Ya Pavilion doesn't seem to have pill refining rooms. Elder Brother Wu Xuan, is it fine to borrow your pill refining room to use?"
Wu Xuan was also secretly alarmed by the side. A few days ago, Ren Dong was still at loggerheads with Ye Yuan. Now, he actually wanted to acknowledge him as his master.
Wu Xuan's thinking was around the same as Cao Fang's. Although Ye Yuan's talent seemed to be very monstrous, Ren Dong had a peak Alchemy Sovereign grandfather behind him. Could it be that he still needed to acknowledge other people as his master?"
Hearing Ye Yuan's request, Wu Xuan nodded and said, "No problem."
Wu Xuan was also very curious how Ye Yuan was going to test Ren Dong.
Chapter 517. Establishing Rules |
Inside Wu Xuan's pill refining room, it was already packed with people currently.
When Xiao Ruyan heard that Ye Yuan was going to test Ren Dong, she was full of reluctance but insisted on following over no matter what.
Meanwhile, Cao Fang was also very curious, following over at the behest of supernatural power, causing him unable to resist.
Ye Yuan naturally noticed it but did not say anything either.
When Wu Xuan saw the materials Ren Dong picked, he could not help being stupefied. He said, "Younger Brother Ye, why did he choose all Tier 1 medicinal herbs? Isn't the threshold of your acceptance test too low?
Ye Yuan said with a smile, "Elder Brother, you watch first. You'll know in a while. This Ren Dong still has some comprehension abilities. To think that he could achieve it so quickly. Looking at how both of his eyes are bloodshot, presumably, he didn't even shut his eyes these few days."
How could the acceptance test that Ye Yuan set up be achieved so easily?
Even for the lowest level Lesser Phaseless Art, wanting to reach the standards of refining transcendent-grade Tier 1 medicinal pills, those with slightly better talent also needed around half a month's time of bitter training. Those with poorer natural endowments might not even find the knack to refining at all.
Just as Ye Yuan predicted, Ren Dong did not rest for a single second these few days. From morning to night, he was immersed in the pill refining room, for the sake of completing the acceptance test as soon as possible.
Furthermore, for this Lesser Phaseless Art to reach the level of refining transcendent-grade medicinal pills, it was not achievable with just bitter training as well.
If there were not Ye Yuan's demonstration, Ren Dong could not possibly find the trick to it so quickly either. He had been recalling the scenario of Ye Yuan refining pills bare-handedly these few days, contrasting it continuously. That was why he could understand the secret so quickly.
It was just because the Lesser Phaseless Art was too simple and practically did not have much skill content; that was why Ren Dong could reach such standard in a few days.
But for Ren Dong to be able to reach this level, it also showed that his talent surpassed others.
In Ye Yuan's perspective, Ren Dong's alchemy talent should be even higher than Xiao Ruyan's.
Everyone all looked at Ren Dong very curiously, wanting to see just what of thing this acceptance test was.
Although Ren Dong was very tired, he was currently in a state of extreme stimulation.
Ye Yuan opened a window for him, letting him see a great path linking to the heaven. To alchemists, there was nothing more exciting than this.
All the preparations were in place. Ren Dong said to Ye Yuan with an excited face, "Master, watch closely!"
When Ren Dong made his move, everybody could not help staring wide-eyed.
"Lesser Phaseless Art? Younger Brother, what kind of medicine are you selling in your gourd here?" Wu Xuan was completely baffled.
Using the Lesser Phaseless Art as the acceptance test. How low was this threshold?!
Even Alchemy Grandmasters when taking disciples could not possibly use this as the evaluation too.
"Huhu, Elder Brother carry on watching. This boy is quite interesting," Ye Yuan said as he behaved like a senior.
It was naturally quite interesting. Ren Dong only used three days and actually touched upon the threshold of the Legendary Realm. Looks like his conditions were really decent.
The Legendary Realm was only normal to Ye Yuan.
But to others, it was not something that simple.
Furthermore, it was simply not possible for there to be people who would devote time and energy into the Lesser Phaseless Art to reach the Legendary Realm.
"The fragrance that southern sandalwood gives off when mingled together with this wine will make the flavor even stronger when it enters your mouth. Furthermore, low-grade Immortal Remembrance Jade Brew still has some impurities. Cups constructed out of Southern Sandalwood can slightly cleanse these impurities, making the taste of the Immortal Remembrance Jade Brew even more fragrant," Ye Yuan explained.

But for Ren Dong to be able to reach this level, it also showed that his talent surpassed others.
In Ye Yuan's perspective, Ren Dong's alchemy talent should be even higher than Xiao Ruyan's.
Everyone all looked at Ren Dong very curiously, wanting to see just what of thing this acceptance test was.
Although Ren Dong was very tired, he was currently in a state of extreme stimulation.
Ye Yuan opened a window for him, letting him see a great path linking to the heaven. To alchemists, there was nothing more exciting than this.
All the preparations were in place. Ren Dong said to Ye Yuan with an excited face, "Master, watch closely!"
When Ren Dong made his move, everybody could not help staring wide-eyed.
"Lesser Phaseless Art? Younger Brother, what kind of medicine are you selling in your gourd here?" Wu Xuan was completely baffled.
Using the Lesser Phaseless Art as the acceptance test. How low was this threshold?!
Even Alchemy Grandmasters when taking disciples could not possibly use this as the evaluation too.
"Huhu, Elder Brother carry on watching. This boy is quite interesting," Ye Yuan said as he behaved like a senior.
It was naturally quite interesting. Ren Dong only used three days and actually touched upon the threshold of the Legendary Realm. Looks like his conditions were really decent.
The Legendary Realm was only normal to Ye Yuan.
But to others, it was not something that simple.
Furthermore, it was simply not possible for there to be people who would devote time and energy into the Lesser Phaseless Art to reach the Legendary Realm.
