Chapter 1073: Alchemy Battle (Part 1)

Please continue reading on ΒOXΝʘVEL.ϹΟM . Earlier, Ye Chen had not noticed her. After all, his focus was on the Alchemy Conference, and getting strong enough to face the Blood Spirit Clan.

The hundred-year deadline was approaching, so if he did not improve himself before that, the consequences would spell the end of him, his loved ones, and the Kunlun Mountains.

After settling matters in Danxu Town, he would start making plans and preparations to advance to the Supreme Emperor realm. If those six Blood Spirit Clan members were already this strong, then the seven experts that would come in a year or so would be extremely terrifying!

Furthermore, no matter what, he could not avoid this matter, as it involved the ancient mighty experts of the Samsara Graveyard and their true bodies. He was their only hope!

“Mr. Ye?”

When Ruo Han saw that Ye Chen did not respond, she called out softly, waking him up from his reverie.

Ye Chen’s absent-minded gaze turned to Ruo Han.

Because at this moment, Ruo Han’s expression was exactly the same as when he first met Xia Ruoxue.

“Ruoxue?”

The moment the words left his mouth, Ruo Han became confused. “I’m Ruo Han.”

Ye Chen quickly realized that he had made a mistake.

It had been almost a year since he entered the Kunlun Mountains from Huaxia, and he would often think of his loved ones that were not here.

Later on, the more enemies he faced, the heavier the burden on his shoulders, and the less time he had to think about it.

At least he had a wife in Huaxia.

She was still his only legal wife.

If he did not go back and bring Ruoxue back to the Kunlun Mountains, he would really be letting her down.

Furthermore, the arrival of the Blood Spirit Clan would cause trouble for the Kunlun Mountains, Huaxia and the entire Earth. Huaxia’s Dark Hall would not be able to protect Xia Ruoxue, and only by keeping her by his side could he feel at ease.

More importantly, for some reason, whenever Ye Chen thought of Xia Ruoxue, blood and demonic energy would flow out from his forehead, as if portending that something unsettling was about to happen.

Ye Chen’s eyes narrowed. He had already made up his mind. Once the matter at the Core Tower was over, he would immediately make the trip to Huaxia!

“Mr. Ye?”

After Ruo Han called out a few more times, Ye Chen finally reacted and a smile appeared on his lips.

“Miss Ruo Han, I’m really sorry. You reminded me of a certain friend just now.”

“Is that so?” Ruo Han’s eyes gleamed when she heard that. “In that case, I am really envious of that girl called Ruoxue. If there’s a chance, please introduce her to me, Mr. Ye.”

“Why don’t we do this? After the conference ends, I would like to invite Mr. Ye to discuss the Dao together.”

“Ruo Han! What are you doing?”

Luo Yao saw that Ruo Han and Ye Chen were chatting and immediately became anxious. She stomped her feet and shouted, “Mr. Ye, once the Alchemy Conference is over, why don’t you come over to the Luo family’s residence? Uh, this is what your senior brother, Ye Shitian, instructed!”

Ye Chen was stunned.

‘I’m Ye Shitian. When did I tell you that I have to come to the Luo family’s residence after the Alchemy Conference ends? Luo Yao is really quite the character.’

“I’ll be competing with you in the Alchemy Conference. I hope that we’ll both have good results,” Ruo Han said softly.

“Alright!”

“Let’s get back to business. The Alchemy Conference will now continue!” Alchemy Master Ling Yi gestured to Alchemy Master Xingtian to take out the 30 cauldrons from his storage space and place them on the arena stage.

They were arranged in three rows, with ten alchemists in each row, separated by a few meters.

At the same time, Alchemy Master Ling Yi took out 300 sets of different medicinal herbs and gave them to the 30 young alchemists to choose from.

“Remember, you have six hours. The quality of the pill refined will determine who is the best!”

“If the quality of the pills is the same, the number of pills you produce in the cauldron will determine who is better!”

“In addition, there are a total of 300 sets of medicinal herbs. You can choose them yourselves!”

Among them, there were ingredients for the Ancient Hundred Spirit Pill, Spirit Comprehension Pill, Heaven Yellow Pill, Water Pill, Fire Pill, and so on. Each of them required three kinds of medicinal herbs, while some of the other herbs were added for variety and challenge.

Cui Yue took the lead and took a portion of the medicinal ingredients for the Spirit Comprehension Pill!

He exchanged glances with Cui Xu and Cui Wan, their furious gazes landing on Ye Chen.

Their family head had just died at Ye Chen’s hands. How could they not hate him?

Soon, Cui Yue and Cui Wan were given their positions, just to Ye Chen’s left and behind.

Ruo Han was on Ye Chen’s right. Luo Fang and the other twenty or so young alchemists lined up in order. They were all prepared and each selected their own medicinal ingredients!

“Now, let’s begin!”

As soon as Alchemy Master Ling Yi finished speaking, the young alchemists quickly took action.

“Six hours!”

“There’s plenty of time. I’ll refine a cauldron of Spirit Comprehension Pills first. Then, I’ll see what kind of pills Ye Chen refines and find an opportunity to suppress him!”

Cui Yue’s expression was ferocious as he looked at Ye Chen with a sinister smile, thinking to himself, ‘Ye Chen, this is our home ground! If you can completely refine a medicinal pill, you win!

‘It’s an indisputable fact that you’re powerful, but this time, it’s about alchemy! Hmph!’

Cui Yue’s palm emitted flames as he released the alchemy flames in his body. After the condensation of the wisps of clouds just now, the alchemy flames had become stronger!

He suddenly slapped the cauldron with the back of his hand. The alchemy flames gathered into the cauldron and lit up a white flame that looked ferocious and terrifyingly hot. Other ordinary cultivators would have been instantly burned to death by these flames!

He grabbed two handfuls of medicinal herbs. “Spirit Void Herb, Yellow Rock Lotus!”

“Ice Grass, White Mist Flower…”

Cui Yue selected dozens of medicinal herbs in a row and added them into the cauldron according to the quantity and order.

Then, he closed the lid of the cauldron and jumped onto it. His fingertips were surrounded by rays of light, and waves of blood energy entered the cauldron. Within the cauldron, under the influence of the blood energy, the Ice Grass, Spirit Void Herb, and other medicinal herbs were the first to melt.

Next, the White Mist Flower melted.

Many medicinal liquids gathered and were fused together by the alchemy flames, combining their medicinal properties.

On the other side, Ruo Han formed a seal with both hands. She was elegant and awe-inspiring, like a fairy in the mortal world. Streaks of starlight spread out, and an invisible force picked up a medicinal herb and threw it into the cauldron!

“I’ll refine a cauldron of Spirit Comprehension Pills,” she muttered to herself. Her forehead flashed with an icy light, and a wave of power was infused into the cauldron.

Together with her icu-blue alchemy flames, she began to refine and fuse the medicinal properties of the various medicinal ingredients.

After that, she would then use her own true qi or special cultivation techniques to dissolve the medicinal herbs and condense them into pills.

This was the simplest method.

The twenty young alchemists in the second and third rows did the same.

However, the Ice Pill, Fire Pill, Heaven Yellow Pill, and so on that they first refined were all seventh-grade medicinal pills. The time it would take to refine these pills was around two hours, so they could first refine a cauldron of these pills before trying to refine the Spirit Comprehension Pill in the remaining time.

Unlike them, Ye Chen grabbed the cauldron and threw it high into the air. He then released an invisible force that held the cauldron in place in mid-air!
