Supreme Lord of Towers

The elder with a fiery temper was the Third Elder of the Celestial Pill Pavilion’s branch, named Real Fire.

Although he wasn’t a Golden Core Realm expert, his achievements in the Alchemy Dao had already reached the Master Level, which gave him a high status in the Celestial Pill Pavilion’s branch.

In his view, Ye Chen was only about sixteen or seventeen years old, still just a fledgling.

Even if he truly possessed a high Divine Soul Talent, it would be difficult for him to cultivate his Divine Soul to the Third Level of Divine Sense Realm at this age, let alone refine elixirs.

”Old Third, since Young Friend Ye Chen has said so, let him try.” At this moment, Grand Elder Venerable Yuanming suddenly spoke.

Although he didn’t believe Ye Chen could refine elixirs, letting him try wouldn’t take much time.

After all, their Celestial Pill Pavilion had several Alchemy Rooms, and they were well-stocked with alchemy materials. Refining elixirs wasn’t difficult at all.

”Ye Chen, the materials listed in your pill formula are exactly available in our Celestial Pill Pavilion, but they are extremely valuable. If you fail to refine the elixir, you’ll have to bear the entire cost of these materials! If you agree, I’ll take you to the Alchemy Room now,” Venerable Qingfeng said, stroking his chin.

You should know that the materials to refine the Peiyuan Pill consist of more than thirty types, and all of them are Spirit Medicine.

Their total value definitely exceeds one hundred million ordinary Spirit Stones.

Though this fortune is nothing to Venerable Qingfeng,

if Ye Chen can’t refine the Peiyuan Pill, Venerable Qingfeng won’t be foolish enough to cover it for him.

Not blaming Ye Chen for deceiving them was quite generous of him.

If it were someone else, Venerable Qingfeng would certainly punish them severely.

Since Ye Chen is a Body Refining prodigy that even Venerable Zi Chen holds in high regard,

he was willing to give face to Venerable Zi Chen.

”No problem, I have fifty thousand Celestial Spirit Stones with me; buying these materials is not an issue,” Ye Chen replied with a slight smile.

He had never displayed his alchemy achievements before others, so it was natural for Venerable Qingfeng not to trust him.

Therefore, he didn’t take it to heart at all.

”Fine! Ye Chen, follow me to the Heaven-graded Alchemy Room,” Venerable Qingfeng said blandly and then stepped out of the VIP room.

The Heaven-graded Alchemy Room was the best in the Celestial Pill Pavilion.

Usually, only Venerable Qingfeng and a few Elders from the Celestial Pill Pavilion were qualified to enter and refine elixirs there.

Shortly, under Venerable Qingfeng’s guidance, Ye Chen arrived at the Heaven-graded Alchemy Room.

This was a spacious hall, luxuriously decorated, with even the upper parts of the walls plated with gold, making the whole Alchemy Room shine brightly.

In the center of the hall was a massive Alchemy Furnace.

It was about as tall as two people and crafted from a special kind of Divine Copper, with numerous engravings and patterns, giving it an ancient charm.

”Ye Chen, this Alchemy Furnace is a Treasure; this level of furnace must be your first time seeing it, right?” Venerable Qingfeng chuckled, looking quite proud.

As you should know, a Treasure is a grade higher than a Spiritual Artifact, with value beyond estimation.

Even many Profound Pills experts don’t possess a Treasure, let alone a Divine Mansion Realm cultivator.

Thus, in Venerable Qingfeng’s eyes, Ye Chen, who came from a mere Mortal Dynasty, probably had never seen a Treasure, let alone used one.

”This Alchemy Furnace is pretty good; it should be able to refine ten-quality pills.” To everyone’s surprise, Ye Chen wasn’t surprised at all and spoke with a calm expression.

It seemed that in his eyes, this Alchemy Furnace wasn’t much.

In Ye Chen’s Celestial Soul Divine Tower, there’s a Pill Emperor Divine Furnace stored.

This Pill Emperor Divine Furnace is one of the most powerful Alchemy Furnaces in All Heavens and Myriad Realms.

Back in the day, the Supreme Human Emperor often used this furnace to refine elixirs.

And although this Alchemy Furnace before him was a Treasure, compared to the Pill Emperor Divine Furnace, it was far inferior.

So, naturally, Ye Chen didn’t think much of it.

”Haha! This Alchemy Furnace can surely refine ten-quality pills, but it depends on who’s using it! If it’s some random nobody, no matter how good the Alchemy Furnace is, they could never refine ten-quality pills,” the Third Elder Real Fire couldn’t help but scoff, a thick sense of ridicule on his lips.

In this world, elixirs are categorized from one-quality to ten-quality based on their effectiveness.

One-quality pills are of the lowest quality, and nobody wants them.

While ten-quality pills are of the highest quality, and once they appear, they surely provoke a frantic scramble among cultivators.

Yet, refining ten-quality pills is exceptionally difficult. Even in the Southern Heaven Domain, few can achieve it.

Venerable Qingfeng, despite reaching a Master Level in alchemy, usually produces elixirs with only seven to eight-quality effects.

Only on very rare occasions can he successfully refine a few ten-quality pills.

Only those who have achieved a Grandmaster Level in alchemy, Divine Soul Masters, can ensure most of their refined elixirs are ten-quality.

Such alchemy grandmasters, even in the Southern Heaven Domain, are as rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns.

Their status is not inferior to Quasi-God level experts.

These individuals are vigorously courted by the Six Great Sacred Lands, enjoying unimaginable prestige.

In a small place like Cang Province, it’s virtually impossible to produce such figures.

”Hehe! You’re right; if one’s alchemy attainments are poor, no good Alchemy Furnace will help them refine ten-quality pills. However, an Alchemy Furnace is quite crucial; if it’s of poor quality, it will heavily affect the pill’s quality,” Ye Chen said with a slight smile.

”Oh, it seems you do know some alchemy knowledge, but these basics are common knowledge for anyone slightly interested in alchemy, nothing worth boasting about,” Real Fire replied with mocking tone.

A mere greenhorn dared to show off before him—a master of alchemy—truly laughable.

”Young Friend Ye Chen, the materials you requested, I have brought them,” Chief Steward Lin Bei suddenly walked into the Heaven-graded Alchemy Room and said to Ye Chen.

In his right hand, he held a storage ring.

The materials needed for refining the Peiyuan Pill were all stored within this storage ring.
