The sharp shout from Master Yuee Jinglou made everyone present tremble, falling silent as cicadas in winter under the imnse pressure.
But Chen Fei, Young Master Chen, paid them no mind. He casually sorted and prepared all the alchemy materials for the Yunmai Pill, then pointed at the Alchemy Furnace. With a muffled bang, the raging Earth Core Fire burst out like a furious dragon, engulfing the two-person-tall Alchemy Furnace in a sea of flas that spewed a frighteningly scorching heat.
Clearly, with his current Cultivation Level and the terrifyingly powerful alchemy techniques inherited from the experts of the Cultivation World, the difficulty of refining a so-called Second Level Superior Yunmai Pill was no different from fiddling with a furnace full of sugar beans. It was barely enough to pique his interest.
"What kind of alchemy technique is this? Controlling the Earth Core Fire to completely engulf the Alchemy Furnace? Isn't that just reckless?"
"Shh! Keep your voice down! Do you want to see Master Yuee get angry again? But is that kid a genuinely hidden expert, or is he just putting on an act? I've never seen or even heard of such a brazen alchemy technique!"
"That's enough. Let's just keep watching quietly. Whether he has real skill or is just faking it… everything will be clear when the alchemy is finished!"
…
This ti, the crowd outside the Alchemy Room didn't dare to erupt into a loud clamor.
However, they all fixed their gazes on Chen Fei, eagerly anticipating the final result. What would it be?
If a young man like him could truly succeed in refining a batch of Second Level Superior Yunmai Pills, what would that even an? The entire Eagle Gorge Area would probably be thrown into an uproar! He could only be described as a prodigy in the Alchemy Dao.
A Second Level Superior Alchemist in his twenties or thirties? What about when he's forty or fifty? Or sixty or seventy? It was entirely possible he could one day beco a Fourth Grade Alchemist or a Fifth Level Pill Master—highly respected figures even in a tropolis like Ghost Wolf City, which teed with experts and powerful Sects!
The re thought of such potential was enough to make one's scalp tingle! It was terrifyingly vast. Who wouldn't be envious?
At that thought, everyone's expression grew fraught with shock and awe. Their eyes were locked on the young figure performing alchemy, not blinking for a second.
WHOOSH! WHOOSH! WHOOSH...
After about half an hour, Chen Fei, who had seed slightly bored, suddenly adopted a serious expression. His eyes narrowed as he stretched out his hand and pointed at the Alchemy Furnace—now completely consud by the raging Earth Core Fire—at least a dozen tis in quick succession. Then, a surging pillar of fire shot shockingly toward the ceiling, dyeing the entire, spacious Alchemy Room red and sending out waves of blistering heat!
"This… Is this the Pill Purification Technique!?" Upon seeing this, Yuee Jinglou, who was already filled with shock, grew even more horrified. His expression twisted, and a storm raged in his heart, leaving him unable to calm down.
It was well known that among the countless techniques in the Alchemy Dao, the most precious and coveted were the legendary thod for tempering spiritual force and this, the Pill Purification Technique!
After all, just imagine if pills that were originally of two or three-pattern quality could be forcefully upgraded to four or even five patterns using this technique. What would that even imply?
The re thought of such a reality was enough to make one obsess over it day and night, crazily dreaming of obtaining it.
For this reason, the Pill Purification Technique, known as one of the ultimate Twin Stars of alchemy, was rare and precious to an absurd degree!
Forget Canglan Island; even in the entire Eagle Gorge Area, or as far as Ghost Wolf City, how many people possessed such a technique? You could probably count them on one hand. But now…
Just then, it seed that Chen Fei, Young Master Chen, was finally finishing up.
"Collect!"
He shouted lightly at the Alchemy Furnace. Instantly, the roaring Earth Core Fire that filled the Alchemy Room seed to lt away like ice and snow. The flas vanished in the blink of an eye. The furnace lid then gently floated open, and with a series of whooshes, six milky-white pills flew out.
"Silver… Silver Patterns!?" Seeing those six pills, Yuee Jinglou's eyes widened and froze. Not only had six pills erged, but their surfaces were swirling with conspicuous streams of silver energy!
As a Second Level Superior Alchemist, how could Yuee Jinglou not know what those silver streams were?
They were the legendary Silver Patterns, which only appeared when a pill's quality surpassed four patterns! Moreover, judging by the density of the silver streams, they were on the verge of fusing into a tangible form!
What does this an? It ans these probably aren't ordinary four-pattern pills, but possibly five-pattern, or even the legendary six… six-pattern!?
Yuee Jinglou gasped, a chilling horror surging through him instantly. He shivered, subconsciously sucking in a sharp breath. To refine a Second Level Superior Yunmai Pill to five or even six-pattern quality—what terrifying level of alchemy and strength would that require?
The thought alone was enough to stupefy him. To think that just before, he had claid it was a complete waste for such a person to receive the Snow Spirit Liquid. But now…
Now, the slap to his face was agonizingly painful.
An Alchemy Master capable of refining five-pattern, even six-pattern, Yunmai Pills… He, Yuee Jinglou, was not even qualified to carry such a person's shoes!
"Hiss! Heavens, did you all see that? The color of the pill aura? It's silver… Silver Patterns!?"
"How… how is this possible!? A single set of alchemy materials yielded six finished pills, and not only that, but all six of them have Silver Patterns!? What does that even an?"
"Can anyone tell how many patterns are on that Yunmai Pill? Four? I saw a four-pattern Yunmai Pill once at Azure Dragon Ravine, and it didn't look like this. The silver pill aura on that one was… much, much fainter!"
"No, it's not four patterns. If this old man is not mistaken, those six Yunmai Pills… all appear to be of six-pattern grade! My god…"
"Six… six patterns? You're full of it!"
"I am Quann Zhenyi, and you dare say I'm full of it!?"
"Ah? Y-You are Master Quann Zhenyi, the Second Level Mid-Grade Alchemist from Jinbao Pavilion!?"
"Master Quann, are those six Yunmai Pills truly all six-pattern quality?"
…
At that mont, the entire scene exploded into an uproar. Everyone's face was etched with profound shock and disbelief.
Six-pattern Yunmai Pills! What did that even an!?
Even the Liu Family of Jinbao Pavilion's most talented alchemist on Canglan Island, a Low Grade Third-Level Alchemist, could never refine the Yunmai Pill to six-pattern quality! No, forget six patterns—that alchemist likely had little confidence in even producing a four-pattern pill, the lowest grade of Silver Pattern Pills. But now?
Now, soone who looked to be only in his twenties had successfully refined a batch of Yunmai Pills. Moreover, he produced six pills in one go, a full third more than Master Yuee Jinglou!
And the most terrifying part was the quality. Six-pattern Yunmai Pills? Such a thing had probably vanished even in a place like Ghost Wolf City, right? So what exactly had they witnessed today? A miracle?
It was simply too fantastical, too unbelievable! A uniform look of stunned silence fell over the crowd. When they looked at Chen Fei's back again, their eyes were filled with deep reverence and awe.
They knew exactly what it ant for an alchemist to be able to refine six six-pattern Yunmai Pills from a single set of materials.
Most importantly, what kind of background did such a person have? Just how terrifying of an alchemist was he!?
Even Zhen Jingkong, within the sea of consciousness, was left dumbstruck and speechless. He had thought he was ntally prepared, but in the face of this, what was the use of preparation? It was completely futile. His roots and origins were in the Qiannan Ancient Kingdom Inner Domain, so he understood better than anyone here what an alchemist capable of refining six-pattern pills signified. Six-pattern pills were truly just one step away from the legendary Golden Patterned Pills!
It was said that a saying was widely circulated within the Alchemist Circles of the Inner Domain of the Ancient Country. Starting with Fourth Grade Low Grade Pills, if an alchemist could produce a Golden Pattern—even the lowest quality seven-patterned pill—that alchemist was 100% guaranteed to beco a legendary King Level Alchemist. Such a being could stand on equal footing with princes, lords, and world-shaking tycoons even in the Inner Domain of the Ancient Country, possessing an incredibly noble status!
Although the pills Chen Fei had just refined were rely Second Level Superior, he had already showcased his boundless potential. What's more, when he was refining that so-called Yunmai Pill, hadn't he been impatient and inattentive, not even using his full strength?
At this thought, the shock in Zhen Jingkong's heart deepened. If this kid were to get serious about alchemy, what incredible heights could he reach? How astonishing would he be?
"One set of alchemy materials, six pills ford, six-pattern quality… I've won, right?" At that mont, Chen Fei retrieved the six six-pattern Yunmai Pills from the Alchemy Furnace. Expressionless, he placed them one by one before the dumbfounded Yuee Jinglou, Manager Lin Ye, and Lin Moxin, speaking in a cold, indifferent tone.
Hearing this, Yuee Jinglou shivered violently. His body began to tremble, and his voice ca out filled with regret and panic as he bowed deeply to Chen Fei. "S-Senior, I was blind and failed to recognize a great man… You have won."
In both the Cultivation Realm and the Alchemy Dao, accomplishnt dictates seniority. Since Chen Fei could refine six six-pattern Yunmai Pills in a single batch, calling him Senior was expected; even calling him Grand-Teacher would not be an exaggeration.
anwhile, Manager Lin Ye of the Twin Rain Tower wanted nothing more than to slap himself countless tis. His face was a mask of regret. What an incredibly foolish thing I've done!
