Ms. Diviner: The Prodigal Daughter's Return

Chapter 1526: Chapter 1526: He Was Completely Stunned

”Hahaha, so that’s how she’s making elixirs. Have you ever seen such alchemy? No, no, I’m going to die laughing.” Han Yutang was stunned for a while, finally coming to his senses, laughing so hard he bent over.

While laughing, he secretly took a step back.

This Dragon Cloud Nine Heavens Furnace was old and in disrepair, the original seal was somewhat incomplete, and any carelessness could cause an explosion. Just as Mu Hanyan suspected, because the pill furnace itself was extraordinary, even if it exploded, it wouldn’t be too damaged, but the power leakage had the might of Nine Heavens Thunder. It’s said that over the millennia, at least more than a dozen gifted alchemists were seriously injured beneath this Dragon Cloud Nine Heavens Furnace.

Those alchemists were trained in Holy Court alchemy since childhood and still ended up in such a state. Mu Hanyan just started learning, and that’s one thing, but she used such a crude alchemy technique, as if she were forging iron. Not exploding would be strange, and he definitely didn’t want to be caught in the crossfire.

”Explode, explode, explode...” Seeing Mu Hanyan’s movements getting faster and the muffled sounds from the furnace getting louder, Han Yutang’s face turned red with excitement, and eventually he couldn’t help but shout out loud, ”Explode!”

”What did you say?” Mu Hanyan suddenly stopped her movements and looked toward Han Yutang.

”Uh... nothing, nothing. You continue, continue.” Han Yutang realized he was behaving too obviously and said, attempting to cover.

”Oh, no need to continue, I’ve finished refining.” Mu Hanyan said, then opened the furnace lid.

A pure white elixir spun upwards, appearing before everyone, its surface floating with a layer of mist-like aura. The quality was even superior to those elixirs Han Yutang had previously treasured.

”Refined, she actually refined it!” Zhuang Ping’an and others stared at Mu Hanyan in surprise.

Seeing Mu Hanyan’s unbelievable alchemy technique, which was like forging iron, they didn’t dare to have high hopes. Unexpectedly, Mu Hanyan successfully refined it, and the quality was so high. Compared to this elixir, those so-called low-grade elixirs in the past couldn’t even be called elixirs—they were complete waste.

”How is this possible? It didn’t explode and even produced such a top-grade elixir!” Han Yutang stood there, mouth agape, unable to come to terms for a long time.

Even those elite geniuses who practiced Holy Court alchemy since childhood could be seriously injured by this Cloud Dragon Nine Heavens Furnace. Mu Hanyan’s alchemy method, as bold and rough as iron forging, was somehow more advanced than their alchemy skill?

Impossible, absolutely impossible!

Moreover, he painstakingly set a prohibition in the Cloud Dragon Nine Heavens Furnace. Even if Mu Hanyan’s iron-forging-style alchemy has hidden secrets, it wouldn’t be unscathed, let alone successful in refining.

Luck, it must be luck! Han Yutang couldn’t make sense of it and could only conclude it was due to luck.

”Brother Ping’an, this elixir should be what you wanted, right?” Mu Hanyan said and handed the freshly refined elixir to Zhuang Ping’an.

Being called Brother Ping’an made Zhuang Ping’an feel unexpectedly honored. His hands trembling slightly as he took the elixir. Although it was just an elixir, its power was many times stronger than the ones he previously got from Han Yutang and others. Even if all the ones he got earlier were waste pills, he wouldn’t care.

This Zhuang Ping’an really hit the jackpot, gaining such a superb elixir. Staring at the elixir in Zhuang Ping’an’s hand, Han Yutang’s eyes were full of envy and resentment.

”Brother Sang, Aotian, do you still need any elixirs? I can help you refine them.” Mu Hanyan said to Sang Qinghe and others.

Hearing Mu Hanyan’s words, Han Yutang regained his energy, cursing in his heart: ”Really unaware of danger, do you think you’ll always have such good luck? Let’s see how you perish!”

Sang Qinghe and others, unaware of the secrets of the Cloud Dragon Nine Heavens Furnace, just thought that refining these elixirs was no difficulty for Mu Hanyan, so they weren’t reserved and handed over their elixir recipes.

Mu Hanyan prepared the ingredients and quickly began refining again.

As her hand formation waved, a semi-transparent flame flickered gracefully at the bottom of the furnace, its surface rising like clouds and mist, with the Gray Dragon faintly appearing.

Mu Hanyan once again demonstrated the Li Family’s iron-forging-style alchemy method, kicking and punching at the furnace with thudding sounds.

”Explode, explode, explode!” Han Yutang’s face turned red again with excitement, his whole body trembling slightly.

”What’s wrong with you again, having a seizure? Need me to refine some elixir for you?” Mu Hanyan suddenly stopped and turned to Han Yutang, asking doubtfully.

”No, nothing, just continue, don’t mind me.” Han Yutang quickly put on a nonchalant appearance.

”Oh, it’s already done.” Mu Hanyan said, opening the pill furnace, a heart-calming elixir fragrance wafted, and an elixir leapt from the furnace, its quality matching Zhuang Ping’an’s perfectly.

How is this possible, another success, and the furnace still didn’t explode! Mu Hanyan’s luck is that good? Han Yutang was completely dumbfounded.

”Brother Sang, here’s your elixir, keep it safe.” Mu Hanyan waved her hand, and the elixir flew to Sang Qinghe’s side.

”Young Master Mu, thank you, thank you, such great kindness, I, Sang Qinghe, don’t know how to repay, I can only... only...” Sang Qinghe was so excited he was lost for words, not knowing what to say.

”Just a small matter, Brother Sang, no need to fret, quickly store it away.” Mu Hanyan feared he might rashly offer himself as repayment, which she didn’t want at all, so she quickly advised.

Sang Qinghe finally came to his senses and hurriedly placed the elixir into the jade bottle.

Such a superb elixir shouldn’t be taken thoughtlessly—it requires the best physical condition and the optimal cultivation place to fully absorb its power.

”Aotian, I’ll refine the next elixir for you first,” Mu Hanyan said. Friends over two lifetimes, Mu Hanyan certainly wouldn’t shortchange him.

After consecutively successfully refining two elixirs, her confidence soared. Although the rune inscriptions on the Cloud Dragon Nine Heavens Furnace were profound and mysterious, hard for ordinary alchemists to handle, Mu Hanyan discovered that the way to control this furnace had an uncanny similarity to her Nine Heavens Star Falling Sword and Star Falling Eight Desolate Sword.

Mu Hanyan even suspected that this pill furnace was also a magic artifact left on the Holy Continent by that mysterious woman. Even if it wasn’t, there was certainly some connection. By understanding the Nine Heavens Star Falling Sword and Star Falling Eight Desolate Sword, using this Cloud Dragon Nine Heavens Furnace was entirely effortless, even trying to explode the furnace would take some effort.

”Alright, thanks.” Nan Aotian nodded generously.

”Courting death, daring to court death again!” Han Yutang perked up his spirits, focusing intently on Mu Hanyan, cursing inwardly.

Next, Mu Hanyan repeatedly used the Li family’s iron-forging alchemy technique to refine elixirs for everyone one by one.

Watching elixirs leap from the furnace, under Mu Hanyan’s incredible alchemy method even bolder than iron-forging, the crowd went from initial incredulous laughter to awe and wonder, eventually becoming completely numb.

”Explode, just explode, why the heck aren’t you exploding yet?” Han Yutang desperately looked at the steadfast Cloud Dragon Nine Heavens Furnace, no longer with his previous anticipation and excitement on his face.
