My Master Knows It All

1389: Chapter 332_6 1389: Chapter 332_6 The crowd around fell silent immediately.

You’re in the middle of refining pills, yet you’re refining three types of pills simultaneously, and you even have time to listen to us speak?

Furthermore, you have the composure to explain things to us?

As for the claim that keeping the medicinal aroma entirely within the pill furnace guarantees the greatest efficacy, they had heard of it before, but such a feat was only possible for the most top-tier Alchemy Grandmasters.

Even Wen Dan and Luo Zhen couldn’t achieve this.

Could Cao Zhen, who was refining three types of pills simultaneously, possibly accomplish it?

Impossible!

Cao Zhen couldn’t be bothered to explain and continued refining pills.

Day by day, time passed, and the surrounding spectators dwindled drastically.

Only the disciples of the Holy Pill Sect and Dragon Chant Sect remained, and even Immortal Bi Yue had left.

After all, alchemy seems truly boring to outsiders.

Those disciples didn’t remain idle either.

Some took out their pill furnaces and began refining pills during this time.

After all, as Wen Dan had mentioned, refining those three kinds of pills required a considerable amount of time.

Refining all three pills to completion takes a year, and for just one of them, the Void Spirit Replenishment Pill takes up to five months by itself.

A month passed in the blink of an eye.

For those practicing alchemy, a month barely felt long at all, as refining even a single pill might take about a month.

While many were deeply focused on their own pill refinement, movement suddenly stirred in the pill furnace before Cao Zhen.

One of the furnaces began to tremble violently.

Cao Zhen instantly focused all his attention on it, furiously executing a series of Alchemy Techniques before lifting a hand and reaching toward the furnace.

The disciples who were still watching immediately noticed Cao Zhen’s movements.

“Pill Decoction?”

“What’s happening?

Why is Cao Zhen starting to decoct pills now?”

“It’s only been a month.

Did Cao Zhen already finish refining the pills?”

“Impossible.

Didn’t Senior Wen Dan say that of the three types of pills, the shortest refinement time for the Qiankun Transformation Pill is at least three months?”

“But now he’s already decocting pills!”

All eyes immediately turned toward Cao Zhen.

Even Wen Dan raised his head and stared at Cao Zhen in shock.

Even Luo Zhen, who had been refining pills himself, paused to cast an Alchemy Technique toward his furnace before glancing toward Cao Zhen.

The next moment, in the sight of everyone, Cao Zhen abruptly pulled his hand back, and from his pill furnace, one pill after another flew out.

In an instant, a total of 36 pills formed a chain and fell perfectly into the jade bottle that Cao Zhen had prepared beforehand.

Every single pill was perfectly rounded and radiated a Seven-Colored Radiance.

“Seven-Colored Radiance!”

“Those are Best Quality Pills, with only Best Quality Pills capable of emitting that rainbow light!”

“And the medicinal aroma that spread just as the pills emerged—just smelling it was enough to make one feel refreshed and serene!”

“He actually refined Best Quality Pills!”

“Each pill is Best Quality!”

“This… And it only took a month!

He managed to refine pills that should take three months in such a short time!”

“Don’t forget, he was refining three types of pills at the same time!”

The crowd could hardly believe their eyes.

Best Quality Pills—most of them had never even refined a single Best Quality Pill, no matter how basic the pill.

Wen Dan was completely dumbfounded.

Both he and Luo Zhen could refine Qiankun Transformation Pills, but with optimal conditions, their best performance would yield one or two High Quality pills from a single furnace, and Best Quality Qiankun Transformation Pills were utterly beyond their reach.

Moreover, when they decocted pills, the maximum number produced from a batch was merely ten at best.

Yet, Cao Zhen had just decocted a total of thirty-six pills from a single batch!

On top of that, Cao Zhen wasn’t even using larger quantities of medicinal materials than them; Wen Dan had seen his proportions beforehand.

Using the same batch of materials, Cao Zhen refined in less time, produced pills of higher quality, and created a greater quantity.

Compared to him, their works were utterly crushed!

Master!

Cao Zhen was without a doubt an Alchemy Master of the highest caliber!

Luo Zhen’s face turned unspeakably grim.

It was abundantly clear that Cao Zhen’s alchemy skills surpassed him by a long shot—even outclassing his father, who was also his mentor.

The method to refine Qiankun Transformation Pills had been taught to him by his father, but even his father couldn’t decoct more than twenty or so pills per batch.

And although they might occasionally yield a few Best Quality pills by sheer luck, this result—having all pills be of Best Quality—was entirely unheard of.

Cao Zhen’s level of mastery—if he claimed he were about to merge all three pills into a new one, could it actually be true?

Luo Zhen couldn’t help but grow anxious, realizing that his three treasures were likely to be lost.

Losing composure, Luo Zhen even forgot to continue refining his own pills, instead standing dumbfounded and staring at Cao Zhen.

Meanwhile, Cao Zhen, after finishing decocting one furnace, didn’t pause but turned decisively to the second batch of pills.

Before long, Cao Zhen executed another series of Alchemy Techniques.

The pills in this batch appeared to be Void Spirit Replenishment Pills.

Luo Zhen’s face changed once more—could Cao Zhen be decocting Void Spirit Replenishment Pills?

Under normal circumstances, refining those pills would take five months, yet Cao Zhen completed them in just one?

As Luo Zhen stared in astonishment and growing dread, Cao Zhen had already started decocting pills.

He too could refine Void Spirit Replenishment Pills, but he noticed that the materials Cao Zhen was using—except for certain aggressive ingredients—were identical to what he used.

However, Cao Zhen’s Pill Decoction Method was entirely different from his own.

It was a method that Luo Zhen had never heard of before.

With Cao Zhen’s hand movements, one pill after another emitting Seven-Colored Radiance flew out of the pill furnace, forming a chain in midair before landing neatly in a nearby jade bottle.

This batch was also thirty-six pills, every single one a Best Quality Pill once again!

At that moment, the surrounding crowd felt as if they were about to lose their minds, and cries of amazement rang out continuously.

“Best Quality, again Best Quality Pills!”

“Each one is Best Quality!”

“How did he do it!”
