Unrivaled Medicine God, page 458
“Master, just what grade is this Dragon Sovereign Cauldron?” Liang Yuan asked.
Quan Xingzi fell silent for a moment and opened his mouth to say, “If it must be classified, the Dragon Sovereign Cauldron can absolutely squeeze into the ranks of transcendent-grade holy artifacts. However … the power of the Dragon Sovereign Cauldron should be even stronger than transcendent-grade holy artifacts!”
“Hiss …” The group of Alchemy Emperors sucked in cold breaths. Their eyes when looking at that tiny little incense burner in Ye Yuan’s hand were filled with intense heat.
To an alchemist, the medicinal cauldron was everything!
In his past life, Ye Yuan’s equipped sword was merely a top-grade holy artifact, while the Limitless Cauldron was an extremely hard to come by transcendent-grade holy artifact.
Ye Yuan actually had a transcendent-grade holy artifact medicinal cauldron in his hands. How could they stay calm with this?
In a twinkle, the Dragon Sovereign Cauldron expanded several times and was already not much different from ordinary medicinal cauldrons.
While at this time, the Dragon Sovereign Cauldron’s dilapidated appearance already completely faded away. Dragon qi revolved around the entire medicinal cauldron. Medicinal fragrance filled the air. Inside the medicinal cauldron, transmitted out powerful undulations of array formations.
Without a doubt, the Dragon Sovereign Cauldron was a transcendent-grade holy artifact!
In a corner, Yue Mengli’s gaze when looking at Yue Mengli was filled with worship and affection.
This man, even if he lost his previous life’s halo, he was still so dazzling, dazzling to the extent it pricked the eye!
Ye Yuan slowly came in front of the operating platform. Several dozen stalks of spirit medicine were placed on the operating platform.
Only to see him wave his sleeves grandly, sweeping those several dozen stalks of spirit medicine into the air.
Boom!
Ye Yuan abruptly slapped a palm out. An intense tremor emitted in the air. Those several dozen stalks of spirit medicine were directly turned to dust!
Chapter 939. Pinnacle Refinement! |
Quan Xingzi had just sat back down and recovered from his shock of seeing the Dragon Sovereign Cauldron.
Seeing Ye Yuan shatter the spirit medicines to dust, he suddenly stood up again.
“Shattering medicine and condensing the embryo!” Quan Xingzi cried out in shock.
Not just him, all of the alchemy emperors were incomparably shocked. They did not recognize the Dragon Sovereign Cauldron, but they all knew shattering medicine and condensing the embryo.
Shattering medicine and condensing the embryo was a method to extract and refine the medicinal embryo.
Talking about it was simple, but alchemists who were able to do it were a meager lot!
Crushing the spirit medicines to dust with one palm, this was nothing difficult. Shattering medicine and condensing the embryo, the hard part was essence energy control, not allowing the spirit medicine’s medicinal strength to flow away.
The difficulties involved, even for Alchemy Emperor powerhouses who were very experienced old-timers, it was very hard to accomplish it too.
Ye Yuan was merely 20 over years of age, and he could actually accomplish shattering medicine and condensing the embryo. How could this not astound them?
Shattering medicine and condensing the embryo this method was not flaunting technique, but that this kind of extraction and refining method made it easier to form the pill and refine high-quality medicinal pills.
Shattering the spirit medicines, then integrating them together, this way was more beneficial to the distribution ratio between the various spirit medicines and having sufficient contact.
This way, during the refinement process, the loss of medicinal strength would be even lesser. The fusion between the various spirit medicines would also be easier.
But this kind of method, if one’s level of skill was not up to par, it was very easy to lose medicinal strength, and make the medicinal pill even harder to refine instead.
Therefore, alchemists who dared to shatter medicine and condense the embryo were all undoubtedly people who were extremely experienced and had unparalleled strength!
Shattering medicine and condensing the embryo at an age like Ye Yuan’s was virtually impossible to succeed.
“This brat isn’t deliberately posturing, right? How can shattering medicine and condensing the embryo be so easy to accomplish?” An Alchemy Emperor appraised.
After the shock, everyone was all somewhat scoffing in contempt towards Ye Yuan’s actions. Liang Yuan took these voices into his ears, and deeply felt that way too.
This brat was definitely intentionally posturing to show off skill!
In a while, when he refined a useless pill, see if he still dare to be so cocky!
But in a corner, Yue Mengli was secretly laughing in her heart. If even Ye Yuan could not accomplish shattering medicine and condensing the embryo, then nobody in this world could do it.
That one currently refining pills was Qingyun Zi!
The Ye Yuan who entered a pill refining state was already completely focused without distracting thoughts. Everything in the outside world had nothing to do with him.
Only to see his hands’ actions as swift as lightning, drawing in those shattered until virtually could not be seen spirit medicine fine powder together.
Very soon, a sparkling and crystal-clear medicinal embryo appeared on his left hand.
Done with these, his right hand did not pause in the slightest, drawing a circle high in the air. The Cleansing Sandal Sacred Flame immediately condensed to form a fire ring.
Ye Yuan’s right hand made waves-like movements. That fire ring gradually started to surge.
Rumble!
On top of that fire ring, another fire ring actually condensed and formed once more!
“Cleansing Sandal Sacred Flame! Nine-Story Pagoda! This boy is simply god-like!”
“Nine-Story Pagoda is an extremely profound fire-controlling art! Even you and I are unable to accomplish it too!”
“This fire-controlling art requires repeated tempering. Even if one trained for a hundred years, they might not be able to learn the rudiments either. This boy is just around 20 years old, how in the world did he do it?”
The crowd of Alchemy Emperors’ cries of shock rose one after another, being utterly astonished by Ye Yuan’s fire-controlling means.
It was only to see the fire rings in Ye Yuan’s hand pile on one layer by one layer. It became the shape of a pagoda very quickly.
Rumble!
Ye Yuan formed an incantation with his right hand. The Nine-Story Pagoda directly sunk into the Dragon Sovereign Cauldron. Instantaneously, the Dragon Sovereign Cauldron started seething with excitement.
Ye Yuan did not hesitate in the slightest. Lightly pushing with his left hand, the medicinal embryo entered the Dragon Sovereign Cauldron.
Following which, Ye Yuan’s body was akin to a wandering dragon, revolving around the Dragon Sovereign Cauldron and firing in spells non-stop. The movements of his hands and feet were extremely profound.
With this, cries of alarm sounded out again!
“Eight-Diagrams Wandering Dragon Secret Art! It’s the Eight-Diagrams Wandering Dragon Secret Art! He … how can he possibly grasp such a profound refining method?”
Starting from when Ye Yuan stood up, the group of Alchemy Emperors was seemingly like a bunch of primary school students watching a master’s exhibition match, being shocked by Ye Yuan’s performance unceasingly.
First was shattering medicine and condensing the embryo, then the Tier 8 Cleansing Sandal Sacred Flame, the Nine-Story Pagoda fire-controlling art, and lastly, this Eight-Diagrams Wandering Dragon Secret Art. It thoroughly set them ablaze.
A roughly 20 years old young man, how could he possibly have such profound alchemy skills?
This scene was simply unbelievable!
The Eight-Diagrams Wandering Dragon Secret Art was one of the Divine Realm’s pinnacle-most refinement methods. Those able to grasp this refinement method were all the Divine Realm’s pinnacle-most existences. How did Ye Yuan acquire it?
Furthermore, his refining method was even extremely well-practiced. This was simply too inconceivable.
Yue Jianqiu’s eyes flickered, faintly having some surmises in his heart. Could it be that Ye Yuan really had extremely deep ties to the Soul Martial Divine King?
Otherwise, how could a 20 years old brat possibly have such attainments in alchemy?
His gaze involuntarily looked towards his daughter but saw that Yue Mengli was long mesmerized from watching.
Yue Jianiqu could not help heaving a sigh. His daughter had always been cold. When had she ever displayed such a young girl’s side before?
Ye Yuan’s state was getting better and better. The maneuver of his hands and footwork became increasingly profound. Gradually, a strange kind of atmosphere undulated out.
Those present were all Alchemy Emperor powerhouses. They detected this aspect very acutely!
Ye Yuan entered the Legendary Realm!
To be able to exhibit the Eight-Diagrams Wandering Dragon Secret Art to the Legendary Realm, how heaven-defying an Alchemy Dao attainment did this require?!
All the alchemy emperors exchanged glances, seeing the astoundment in the other party’s eyes.
This young man’s attainments in the Alchemy Path was seriously too terrifying!
Quan Xingzi’s eyes were glued onto Ye Yuan’s actions as if wanting to see through him completely. He really wanted to know why he could not refine the Soul Separating Pill.
But the Ye Yuan in the Legendary Realm, each move and each stance all had a feeling of being an ensemble of nature. This sort of feeling already gradually aligned with Heavenly Dao.
One could say that Ye Yuan had already gradually touched the pinnacle realm of Alchemy Dao.
Under such a state, refining out any kind of medicinal pill would also not be strange.
He wanted to know, but he could not perceive why.
Quan Xingzi’s alchemy strength left no room for doubt. Even when Ye Yuan was at his prime, wanting to beat Quan Xingzi was not something that easy either.
But this Soul Separating Pill was different.
It was a pill formula that Ye Yuan took out. How the duration and degree of heating between the spirit medicines should be grasped, only Ye Yuan himself knew.
Furthermore, this sort of thing could be understood but not expressed with words.
Although it was just a Tier 8 medicinal pill, the difficulty of refining was indisputable. Even with Ye Yuan’s pill formula, this medicinal pill was also not what ordinary people could refine.
In a blink, half a day’s time passed.
This half a day, the Alchemy Emperors all stared at Ye Yuan refining the pill without blinking.
But they did not feel the least bit weary and dreary. On the contrary, each and every one of their faces all had agitated looks like they had obtained the most valuable treasure.
This level of master-class refinement was not that easy to come across.
Right at this time, Ye Yuan gave a loud cry: “Condense!”
All of a sudden, the Dragon Sovereign Cauldron emitted an incomparably resplendent brilliance, piercing until people could not open their eyes.
Not long after, the splendor faded away, and Ye Yuan’s figure appeared.
Chapter 940. Just a Part-Time Occupation |
“So fragrant! Is this the fragrance of the Soul Separating Pill?”
A thick medicinal fragrance wafted out along with the wind, tunneling into everyone’s nostrils, and refreshing the mind.
On the table, a crystal-ball like medicinal pill lied in a jade container quietly.
When the group of Alchemy Emperors saw the medicinal pill, all of them revealed astonished looks.
“Transcendent-grade! Transcendent-grade Soul Separating Pill!” An Alchemy Emperor exclaimed in shock.
These Alchemy Emperors could not even refine a defective product, but this initial-rank Alchemy Venerable youth before their eyes actually refined a transcendent-grade Soul Separating Pill. This was also too freakish, right?
Soul Separating Pill, although it was just a Tier 8 medicinal pill, in terms of refining difficulty, it was absolutely harder than the vast majority of Tier 9 medicinal pills!
From a certain degree, it was even harder to refine than high-grade Tier 9 medicinal pills!
Otherwise, how could Quan Xingzi this peak Alchemy Emperor possibly be unable to refine it?
Bang!
Ye Yuan lightly moved his body a bit, but his feet gave way, and he almost tumbled to the ground. Luckily, he held onto the table, that was how he did not fall down.
Yue Mengli’s expression changed, arrived beside Ye Yuan with a large stride, and supported him.
“Ye Yuan, are you alright?” Yue Mengli asked concernedly.
Ye Yuan shook his head and said feebly, “I’m fine, just a little drained.”
With Ye Yuan’s present cultivation realm, refining the Soul Separating Pill was indeed rather forceful. Furthermore, during the refinement process, he suppressed his soul force to initial-rank Alchemy Venerable the whole time. This way would make his pressure skyrocket.
Actually, Ye Yuan’s present soul force magnitude already far exceeded initial-rank Alchemy Venerable. If he erupted with full force, refining the Soul Separating Pill also would not be so arduous.
It was just that some things were not appropriate to show in front of so many people.
Especially with Quan Xingzi this sly old fox present, slightly giving himself away a little would be found out. Therefore, during the refinement process, Ye Yuan had constantly exercised extreme caution.
“The medicinal pill is already completed. I wonder if anyone has any doubts?” Ye Yuan said to the audience.
“None! A flawless refinement! Honestly speaking, seeing Little Brother Ye’s pill refinement, this elderly self feels like so many years of living were considered to have been utterly wasted!” An alchemy emperor shook his head and said.
“Refinement technique, ratio of spirit medicines, were exactly the same as on the pill formula! Even if there’s really any underhanded activities, very sorry, pardon this old man for not being able to perceive it,” another alchemy emperor said.
“If we really have to say, then it’s that our skills are not there yet! Little Brother Ye’s alchemy skills simply take people’s breath away in amazement! This old man admires it! I wonder if Lord Quan Xingzi has any thoughts?”
Utilizing the Eight-Diagrams Wandering Dragon Secret Art to the Legendary Realm, if these Alchemy Emperors still could not perceive the disparity, then they would be a bunch of fools.
Some medicinal pills, could not be refined based solely on the pill formula.
When the medicinal pill’s composition was complicated to a certain degree, what alchemists contended in was refinement skill, as well as understanding towards medicinal theory.
Very clearly, in these aspects, their disparity with the initial-rank Alchemy Venerable Ye Yuan was too great!
Quan Xingzi gave a very meaningful glance at Ye Yuan and slowly opened his mouth to say, “There’s naturally no problem. Truly didn’t expect that Little Friend’s pill refining skills are actually so transcendent! Having seen Little Friend’s refinement, this old man thought of another genius alchemist.”
The group of Alchemy Emperors was startled. Someone opened his mouth to say, “Could what Your Excellency be talking about be … Lord Qingyun Zi?”
When Yue Mengli heard this name, her heart involuntarily pounded, her expression becoming ugly.
Fortunately, the rest of the people’s expressions were very ugly too. Yue Mengli’s expression did not have any areas which drew people’s attention.
And Ye Yuan, it was as if they were talking about another person, an expression of indifference towards honor or humiliation.
Quan Xingzi nodded his head and said, “Although the Medicine King Hall isn’t on particularly good terms with our Alchemist Association, Qingyun Zi’s Alchemy Dao attainments are indeed remarkably startling! But I observed that Little Friend Ye’s alchemy skills will likely be even above Qingyun Zi’s in the future!”
All of the alchemy emperors were taken aback and could not help looking towards Ye Yuan with extremely astonished gazes.
These words coming out from the mouth of the Alchemist Association’s Lord Vice-Chairman, the weight was extraordinary!
This was extremely high praise and honor towards Ye Yuan. This sentence of Quan Xingzi’s was sufficient to let Ye Yuan’s name shake the Divine Realm!
Ye Yuan smiled and said, “Alchemy Dao, is it? This is just my part-time occupation. This Ye’s pursuit is the paramount Martial Path! If Senior wishes to invite me to join the Alchemist Association, please save your breath.”
The moment these words came out, the group of Alchemy Emperors was collectively dumbstruck, including Quan Xingzi.
Part-time occupation … could even have such standards. Then wouldn’t they all, these full-time alchemists, have to find a piece of tofu to commit suicide and be done with it?
Posturing was not postured this way!
Exasperating people to death without paying for it?
Yet, they did not know that to Ye Yuan, this was his genuine thoughts now.
No matter how formidable his Alchemy Path strength, it could not help him take revenge either.
Only by taking his revenge could he place all of his body and mind on alchemy.
The Liang Yuan beside Quan Xingzi already did not know what he should say at this time.
The haughty look right at the start had already completely disappeared from him.
Observing Ye Yuan’s pill refinement process, it didn’t only shock his heart, but also his entire being!
His age was even quite a bit older compared to Ye Yuan. But the disparity between the two people was simply comparing a firefly to the bright moon.
…
Ye Yuan’s one sentence repelled Quan Xingzi back. The final result was naturally departing on a sour note.
