Alchemy Master

Chapter 906, The Shock Qin Yichen Brought

Translator: Silavin

The people of Brilliant Sky Sacred Land naturally least wanted to see Qin Yichen poached by the Sacred Martial City Envoy.

It wasn’t that Brilliant Sky Sacred Land lacked exceptionally talented individuals. Someone like Mu Yanfeng would absolutely not fall behind Sacred Master Candidates from other Sacred Lands.

But it was only to that extent.

Even if Mu Yanfeng eventually managed to ascend to the Saint Realm, he could only maintain Brilliant Sky Sacred Land’s current position.

But Qin Yichen was different.

In Qin Yichen, they saw hope for the Sacred Land’s rise!

Crushing Ling Tuyai, who had obtained the Azure Waves Saint’s Inheritance, this fully demonstrated that Qin Yichen possessed talent surpassing Ling Tuyai’s, and moreover, his future achievements would certainly exceed the Azure Waves Saint’s!

Just thinking of this set their hearts ablaze.

Therefore, at this moment, everyone felt extremely tense.

If Qin Yichen personally agreed to the Sacred Martial City Envoy, they would not be able to retain him.

Everything still depended on Qin Yichen’s own choice.

Thinking of this, the people of the Northern Brilliant Hall could not help feeling somewhat reproachful of themselves.

Because before Qin Yichen, they had all played inglorious roles, targeting Qin Yichen at every turn without exaggeration.

If due to them Qin Yichen chose to leave Brilliant Sky Sacred Land, the fault would be inescapably theirs.

“Whatever the Envoy wishes to instruct this Junior in, you might as well speak directly.” Facing the Sacred Martial City Envoy, Qin Yichen maintained a modest attitude, turning toward him with a demeanour of respectfully receiving instruction.

However, precisely because of this seemingly normal statement, the expressions on Yu Qianqiu’s and the Envoy’s faces changed somewhat.

Yu Qianqiu had originally harboured some worry, but now, those slightly furrowed brows relaxed. Though his face showed no smile, one could tell he had breathed a sigh of relief.

Meanwhile, the Sacred Martial City Envoy sighed inwardly.

Though Qin Yichen had not refused him and had expressed respect, he knew that taking Qin Yichen away had become impossible.

Surely he could not forcibly take him away against his will?

‘Forced melons were not sweet’, even he understood this principle.

“I have several questions I’d like to ask you.” Nevertheless, the Sacred Martial City Envoy’s face still bore a smile as he asked Qin Yichen, “What level of attainment have you reached with your Spiritual Energy?”

With this question, everyone’s attention once again focused on Qin Yichen.

Even those not from the Pill Hall clearly understood that this youth had been treasured and hidden away by those old fellows from the Pill Hall.

However, they did not really know Qin Yichen’s specific situation.

“It should count as Unity of Heart and Soul, I suppose.” Being stared at by everyone, Qin Yichen rubbed his nose with a somewhat bashful expression as he answered.

“Unity of Heart and Soul!?” The moment these words left his mouth, sounds of sharp intakes of breath immediately filled the great hall. Even Pill Hall Master Dan Xuanzi reacted this way.

Within every pair of eyes, nothing but shock and disbelief showed.

Unity of Heart and Soul!

That was the highest level of Spiritual Energy mastery!

Even figures like Brilliant Sky Sacred Land’s Dai Cangshan and Qiu Yanyu, Pillars of the World of Alchemy, had only reached the Peak of Perfection.

From this, one could see how difficult reaching Perfection was!

Moreover, according to records, for Alchemists to transcend Mortality and become a Saint, their Spiritual Energy cultivation must reach Unity of Heart and Soul.

The reason Dai Cangshan and Qiu Yanyu were stuck at the Peak Heaven Grade, unable to advance further, was precisely because of this.

Conversely, anyone whose Spiritual Energy cultivation broke through to the Unity of Heart and Soul Realm could almost be said to have a natural progression to become an Alchemy Saint in the future!

Therefore, everyone present, including Yu Qianqiu and the Sacred Martial City Envoy, were moved.

Because the youth before them not only had hope of becoming a peak Martial Saint in the future, he might even become a great Alchemy Saint!

Saints.

Every Sacred Land had a Saint presiding over it.

However, not a single Sacred Land possessed an Alchemy Saint.

They knew that in this entire territory, only Sacred Martial City had an Alchemy Saint presiding within!

One could see how rare Alchemy Saints were.

One could see how difficult achieving Unity of Heart and Soul was.

Yet the youth before them, not even twenty years old, had already reached that level that all Alchemists could only look up to.

The psychological impact on them was immense!

No one could remain calm.

Because most importantly, Qin Yichen was still young!

Youth was his greatest asset. He had the ability to potentially reach even higher levels.

Qin Yichen naturally knew this would produce a massive impact on everyone. However, he also knew he could not conceal it.

The reason, of course, was his use of Spiritual Energy to resist Saint Prestige!

Saint Prestige’s power could crush everything.

If he only had Perfection Realm or Spiritual Transformation Realm mastery over his Spiritual Energy, he absolutely would have no way to resist the Saint Prestige.

And this was also why the Sacred Martial City Envoy had remained in Brilliant Sky Sacred Land.

Therefore, at this moment, he had directly asked about it.

“It really is Unity of Heart and Soul.” The Sacred Martial City Envoy murmured, his gaze constantly resting on Qin Yichen.

Speculation and confirmation were completely different matters.

However, at this moment, Feng Qianxue standing beside Qin Yichen seemed somewhat timid, hiding behind him without even daring to show her face.

The auras of everyone in the great hall felt mountainous and oceanic, placing tremendous pressure on her.

Qin Yichen seemed to sense her unease, grasping her small hand and silently comforting her.

Feng Qianxue raised her head, looking at the youth before her brimming with confidence. For some reason, her panicked and timid heart gradually settled.

She knew that he would shield her from the wind and rain!

“Wait, if your mastery over Spiritual Energy is so strong, how is your Physique…” Suddenly, the Sacred Martial City Envoy thought of another problem.

Although Qin Yichen’s Spiritual Energy could resist Saint Prestige, he had also witnessed Qin Yichen consistently choosing to clash head-on with Ling Tuyai, and moreover, crushing Ling Tuyai in those clashes!

“The Envoy may not know, Qin Yichen cultivates both Alchemy and Martial Arts.” At this moment, Yu Qianqiu spoke, his face bearing a smile.

“Dual cultivation of Alchemy and Martial Arts. He, could he be a Heavenly Martial Artist!?” The Sacred Martial City Envoy stood up with a *whoosh*, even losing composure.

If before this, someone said Qin Yichen possessed the talent to be a Heavenly Martial Artist, he might only pay slight attention without giving it much weight.

Because Heavenly Martial Artists were too difficult to develop. It could practically be called harder than ascending to Heaven!

The reason, naturally, was that bottleneck to the Saint Realm!

In other words, Heavenly Martial Artists must simultaneously possess the talent to break through to Saint Realm in both Martial Arts cultivation and Spiritual Energy cultivation.

Either one alone was already extremely difficult, rare to see once in thousands of years, let alone requiring both talents concentrated in a single person.
