C733 Refining a Tier 5 Medicinal Pill
After waking up from his sleep, Xu Feng had been cultivating in the courtyard for the entire morning. After dinner, he was led by Zhao Yuanhann to the Zhao family's alchemy room.
Now that Xu Feng was a distinguished guest of the Zhao family, as the patriarch, Zhao Yuanhann had no reason to neglect him.
The furnace room of the Zhao family was huge and luxurious. All kinds of herbs and herbs were laid out in front of them, and the spiritual energy was rich.
In the furnace room, there were four or five Pill Alchemist refinements. They looked very old, but their eyes were shining brightly. Obviously, those who could stand here were not ordinary people.
"How dare you call yourself a Fifth Grade Medicinal Pill Master at such a young age? Aren't you afraid that the wind will blow your tongue?!"
One of them! An old man with a white beard and eyebrows spoke in a strange tone. He was the strongest Pill Alchemist refining Gu Yichen in the Zhao family. He was a renowned existence even in the entire Southern Ridge.
The reason Zhao Yuanhann called them here was naturally to let these Pill Alchemist see Xu Feng's ability and potential. This was something Xu Feng wanted to know as well. Otherwise, Zhao Yuanhann wouldn't be willing to help him find out about this.
However, how could Xu Feng tolerate such strange news? Furthermore, it was in front of Zhao Yuanhann.
He sneered and glared at Gu Yichen. Xu Feng said with a smile, "Refining pills isn't about age. It depends on one's brain and talent!"
This sentence could not be said to not be vicious. This was simply slapping the faces of all the Pill Alchemist refiners. He was telling them that this old man had brains and talent, but all of you were only able to achieve such an achievement at such a young age. It was truly a disgrace.
"You!"
Gu Yichen was proud and arrogant to begin with. When he heard Xu Feng's words, he lost his calm. His eyes were like copper bells as he stared fiercely at Xu Feng.
On the other hand, Xu Feng didn't pay any attention to Gu Yichen. He was an old man, yet his disposition was so unstable. When he said that he had some achievements in the field of alchemy, Xu Feng actually didn't believe it.
"Alright, alright. We are all Pill Alchemist. We are just exchanging pointers. Let's exchange some experience. Don't get angry!"
Zhao Yuanhann tried to smooth things over, but Gu Yichen didn't say anything. He just stood there quietly, waiting for Xu Feng to make a fool of himself.
A young man who was not even twenty years old. Even if he was called a Third Grade Pill Alchemist, he was still a genius in refining a Pill Alchemist, let alone a Fifth Grade Medicinal Pill Master!
One! An outstanding Pill Alchemist refinement was something that had been tempered over the years. Only by doing so would one have an even more exquisite control over a Pill Fire.
They had heard of Xu Feng's name before, but that was only in terms of cultivation and not alchemy. In their point of view, Xu Feng was just a liar.
"Don't look at me like that. Very soon, I will make your jaw drop!"
Smiling, Xu Feng didn't waste any more time. With a thought, he took out the Medicine King Cauldron. It was a dark cauldron with strange patterns lingering on it. However, it was extremely ordinary, and there was nothing special about it.
"Puchi..."
Once the Medicine King Cauldron was taken out, Gu Yichen could not help but laugh out loud. Such a simple and crude cauldron, how could it be called a Fifth Grade Medicinal Pill Master?
Every Pill Alchemist had its own cauldron, and the quality of its cauldron was very particular. Generally speaking, under the same level of cultivation, the better the quality of the pill furnace was, and the better the Medicine Pill refined would be.
However, Gu Yichen really didn't believe that this pill furnace in front of him could refine a Fifth Grade Medicinal Pill.
"What a bumpkin!"
Xu Feng shook his head. This was Great Monarch Shennong's pill furnace back then. It was fine that Gu Yichen did not understand it, but he still wanted to show it. Xu Feng found it funny. This kind of person was the most superficial. Everything depended on the surface.
"Let's see how you are going to make a fool of yourself later. As long as you can't concoct it, I will ask the Zhao family Master to kill you on the spot! Hmph!"
In the Zhao family, Gu Yichen's status as the number one Pill Alchemist was unshakable, but now, Xu Feng wanted to challenge his position. Therefore, from the very beginning, he had revealed a strong hostility towards Xu Feng.
Xu Feng didn't waste any time with words. The Blue Beauty Fire in his right hand slowly rose and landed under the Medicine King Cauldron to warm it up.
He had always been talkative. Yes. At this moment, the Blue Beauty Fire actually shut its mouth. In such an occasion, no matter what, he had to help Xu Feng exhale and raise his eyebrows. Moreover, his Blue Beauty Fire was a Heavenly Flame. If he couldn't even refine a Fifth Grade Medicinal Pill... That would really be a joke.
"What!? Alien Flame!"
The moment the Blue Beauty Fire appeared, a wave of exclamations sounded out from within the pill refining room. The Pill Alchemist refining people inside were not stupid. They knew what a 'Heavenly Flame' meant.
Gu Yichen was the one with the most ugly expression. If this continued, he, who originally thought that Xu Feng would not have the chance, would have a slight change at this moment.
"Chi La La..."
As the temperature rose, the Medicine King Cauldron became fiery red. The patterns on the pill furnace also became colorful and lifelike.
A green smoke rose from the pill furnace and filled the entire pill refining room. Under Xu Feng's control, the Blue Beauty Fire also gradually became exuberant.
"Nine Serene Grass, Ice Cold Leaf, Thunder Fruit..."
Xu Feng grabbed the void and grabbed a few herbs. He placed them in the furnace according to a specific order and the Blue Beauty Fire burned even more intensely.
"What!? He wants to refine the high-grade Medicine Pill, Thunder Rumbling Pill, in the Fifth Grade Medicinal Pill!?"
Gu Xuanqing was shocked once again. This Thunder Rumbling Pill was an offensive Medicine Pill. It could unleash the attack of a Great Perfection of Essence Returning Stage expert, and its power was incomparably powerful.
However, the risk involved was also extremely great. As long as he failed, the backlash would be enough to kill Xu Feng, who had a strength that surpassed an Essence Returning Stage. Even he, Gu Xuanqing, had to be extremely careful when refining it.
However, when he looked at Xu Feng again, his face was calm and relaxed, and he didn't seem to be in a hurry at all. It didn't seem like it was his first time refining it, and he was very familiar with it.
"Rumble!"
In the small alchemy furnace, lightning flashed and thunder rumbled. Black gas kept surging out. These black gas were all the dregs of the spirit medicine.
After striking out a few seals, Yuan Power merged into the alchemy furnace and then used it on the spirit medicine. After an hour, the spirit medicine within the alchemy furnace turned into spirit liquid, rolling and tumbling. As for the black smoke, it had long been expelled!
"Cauldron lid!"
With a light shout, the cauldron cover flew out from the furnace. It made the last hand seal and merged into the pill liquid. With a "Clang!," the cauldron lid landed on top and merged with the body of the cauldron. It was airtight.
"Hu..."
Taking a deep breath, Xu Feng's face was full of sweat. However, he did not stop. He slowly sat on the ground with his legs crossed and put his palms together. He did not make the seal.
The Divine Sense was communicating with the Blue Beauty Fire. The fire was sometimes fierce and sometimes gentle. In the furnace, the sound of explosions could be heard from time to time. However, no one knew what was going on inside.
About four hours later, Xu Feng suddenly opened his eyes and started waving his hands. Each seal was filled with strength as it hit the furnace. A dull sound kept echoing in the furnace, echoing in the furnace room.
Xu Feng's action attracted everyone's nerves. After eighty-one seals were performed, Xu Feng's clothes were soaked with sweat. A smile appeared on his face as he muttered, "The pill is done!"
At this point, the Blue Beauty Fire slowly retracted, transforming into a wisp of flame that merged into Xu Feng's body.
Wiping the sweat off his face, Xu Feng smiled at Zhao Yuanhann and said, "Uncle Zhao, please examine the ___!"
"Okay!"
Zhao Yuanhann did not refuse. He took a step forward and slowly opened the cover of the top that weighed hundreds of kilograms. Suddenly, a violent force hit him.
"It... it's done!"
When the lid of the cauldron was removed, what appeared in front of Zhao Yuanhann were three entirely blue Medicine Pill. They were the size of a thumb and were crystal clear. There was even lightning circulating within the Medicine Pill.
"Phew... It's been a long time since I last concocted pills. I'm a little rusty now!"
This result was within Xu Feng's expectations. With the help of two great treasures and his study of the Myriad Completion Arts, breaking through to the Fifth Grade Medicinal Pill Master realm was a matter of course.
When these words fell into Gu Yichen's ears, it was different. He originally looked down on Xu Feng, but now he was full of admiration. If he was skilled, what would the Medicine Pill he refined look like?0
"The lightning within the pill is flickering and the power is completely restrained. It did not leak out in the slightest. This is the highest grade of the Thunder Rumbling Pill. This... Is this really the first time I refined it?"
One. A Pill Alchemist looked at the Thunder Rumbling Pill with eyes filled with shock. Although he wasn't a Fifth Grade Medicinal Pill Master, he still knew how to appraise the Medicine Pill.
"You... Is this really your first time refining a Fifth Grade Medicinal Pill? Could it be that you aren't a Sixth Grade Alchemist?"
These words were said by the proud Gu Yichen. When these words were spoken, even Zhao Yuanhann was shocked.
Gu Yichen had always been arrogant. He had never had such high expectations for anyone. But now, he had told Xu Feng that Xu Feng was an existence close to the Sixth Grade Alchemist. Such an evaluation was simply like breaking through the heavens.
"This is indeed my first time refining it!"
Xu Feng smiled slightly. He did not have the slightest bit of arrogance. He knew that Gu Yichen had been completely subdued by him after seeing the Thunder Rumbling Pill.
Gu Yichen gave in, and Xu Feng naturally would not step forward to step on him again. This was his demeanor.
"Genius! A genius in the field of alchemy!"
His body was trembling slightly. Gu Yichen said slowly, "In terms of alchemy, I, Gu Yichen, am willing to admit defeat. Patriarch, I am willing to give up the position of the number one Pill Alchemist refiner in Zhao family!"
"No, Senior Gu, your qualifications are older than mine. Your understanding of alchemy is deeper than mine. I am merely assisted by the Alien Flame!"
Xu Feng hurriedly declined. He concocted the ___ to show his strength and let Zhao Yuanhann gather information for him. He had never thought of snatching the job of someone else.
"Haha... Good! It's rare for Xu Feng to be so generous. Elder Gu, don't take the matter from before to heart!"
Zhao Yuanhann laughed and said hastily.
Of course, he wouldn't give the name of Zhao family's number one Pill Alchemist to Xu Feng because it was just a transaction. As for Gu Yichen, he was the one who had nurtured him, the Pill Alchemist that was incomparably loyal to the Zhao family.
After giving Xu Feng a grateful look, Gu Yichen took out the demeanor of an elder and stretched out his skinny palm, saying, "This old man is Gu Yichen. I'm sorry for my rudeness just now. In the future, we should communicate more on the path of alchemy!"
"I'm Xu Feng. Senior Gu, please advise me in the future!"
The two of them held hands. Xu Feng knew that his objective in today's trip had been achieved!
