The Divine Urban Physician

Chapter 3859: Chapter 3859: Wasted Life! (Third Update)

Upon hearing these words, Elder Tiandan’s face lit up with joy, nodding repeatedly, ”As the Saint Master says!”

He had used pills to enter the Dao, cultivating all the way to his current state. If Ye Chen could solve his doubts above the Dao of Alchemy, allowing him to progress further, it wouldn’t just improve his alchemy, it might even loosen the bottleneck of his cultivation that had been stagnant for millennia!

Compared to that slight possibility of advancement, what did a mere Wu Clan pill formula amount to?

Ye Chen took the pill formula, his eyes unconsciously showing a hint of excitement, and immediately unfolded that piece of beast skin, focusing intently as he read.

He looked at it for an entire day and night!

However, this amount of time passed like the snap of a finger for those present.

As the morning sun rose, Ye Chen finally opened his eyes again, his gaze bright with divine light!

Upon seeing this, Elder Tiandan felt a stir in his heart and said to Ye Chen, ”Saint Master, I have researched this pill for thousands of years and still cannot refine it. Its temperature control is extremely difficult to manage. If you want to increase the success rate, why not come with me to the Eight Cold Demon Domain and refine the pill amidst the wind and snow, using Mystic Cold Spiritual Energy? That should be effective!”

Saying this, Elder Tiandan felt quite proud in his heart. This was a technique he had explored over thousands of years. Even if it didn’t allow him to complete the pill using this method, it should at least elevate the Saint Master’s opinion of his own Dao of Alchemy!

Unexpectedly, after Elder Tiandan spoke, Ye Chen merely smiled lightly and said, ”Why go through so much trouble? Do you have an alchemy cauldron and materials on hand? I will refine the pill here, and you can watch from the side.”

Hearing this, Elder Tiandan was astonished!

To him, the Golden Witch Body Refining Pill, which consumed countless efforts and yet he couldn’t refine, seemed to be something Ye Chen could handle with ease?

He couldn’t help but marvel in his heart, is this the realm of an Alchemy Saint Master? His gaze towards Ye Chen even carried a hint of reverence.

However, as the pill had not yet formed, it was too early to draw conclusions.

Elder Tiandan’s eyes glimmered, and he immediately waved his hand, revealing the alchemy cauldron and materials, ”Please have a look, Saint Master.”

Countless rare materials brimming with spiritual energy appeared in the courtyard, the overwhelming spiritual energy flooding like a tidal wave, even causing Gu Xuan to look on in shock.

The Purple Rhinoceros Divine Light Horn, the Taibai Ling Han Flower, the Hundred Treasures Lotus Heart... Elder Tiandan’s wealth was indeed astounding!

These treasures were priceless objects on their own!

Yet the most striking of all was a three-legged Black Gold Tripod exuding an aura of daunting Dao Integration!

Even Gu Xuan, looking at this Black Gold Tripod, trembled a bit as she spoke, ”A Nine-grade Emperor Artifact?”

Emperor Artifacts were divided into nine grades, with the latter grades increasingly rare, and a ninth grade was a rare spiritual artifact crossing the boundaries of the Heavenly Repair and Qiankun Realms!

A Nine-grade Emperor Artifact was a Supreme Treasure even within the Dark Domain; though born into a prestigious family in Jing Province, she herself did not possess an artifact of this level. Of course, the Gu Family in Jing Province had several such items, and even possessed higher-level ones!

That was enough to demonstrate just how valuable this was!

And now, merely because of Ye Chen’s words, Elder Tiandan had brought out all these rare materials and the Nine-grade Emperor Artifact?

It showed just how high Ye Chen’s status was in Elder Tiandan’s heart!

Xiao Rou watched in a daze from the side, unable to comprehend that the young man she once thought to eliminate just days ago was respected to such a degree by an individual of such strength!

On the surface, Ye Chen appeared calm, but inside he was overjoyed. Honestly, even with guidance from Xuan Han Yu, Ye Chen was not entirely confident about successfully refining the Golden Witch Body Refining Pill on the first try.

However, if he didn’t exude the demeanor of a master, how could he persuade this seemingly stubborn old man to bring out these treasures?

With this Three-legged Black Gold Tripod, the success rate for refining the Golden Witch Body Refining Pill could be significantly increased!

Seeing Ye Chen’s pleased expression, Elder Tiandan smiled smugly and said, ”This tripod is called the Black Gold Medicine King Tripod, originating from the Ancient Medicine King Valley. I expended considerable effort to procure this tripod; I hope it meets the Saint Master’s standards.”

Ye Chen smiled and replied, ”Thank you, Senior.”

Without further ado, he sat cross-legged in front of the Black Gold Medicine King Tripod. Elder Tiandan watched this scene with anticipation; witnessing a Saint Master of Dao of Alchemy refining pills was an honor for any alchemist who hadn’t reached this level!

Ye Chen reviewed the alchemy technique pointed out by Xuan Han Yu in his mind. After mastering the Solar Lunar Dragon Transformation Pill with pill patterns, his level in the Dao of Alchemy had improved; however, the Golden Witch Body Refining Pill was an exceptionally unique pill, and its refinement difficulty exceeded even the Solar Lunar Dragon Transformation Pill!

His eyes shone with divine light as a water-blue pearl fell into the Medicine King Cauldron. At the same time, he pointed a finger, and a blue-violet flame, exuding an exceedingly fierce aura, entered the cultivation vessel!

The entire Black Gold Medicine King Tripod was immediately engulfed in a blue-violet flame, and the water-blue pearl quickly melted. As time passed, one treasure after another entered the Medicine King Cauldron. Sweat accumulated on Ye Chen’s forehead, and the aroma of medicine in the courtyard grew ever richer, while Elder Tiandan, who was initially a bit tense, was now immensely excited!

He looked at Ye Chen and the alchemy cauldron, as if witnessing a divine miracle!

Ye Chen’s technique, control of heat, and timing all gave this grandmaster of alchemy standing at the pinnacle of the Dark Domain a refreshing feeling!

Having witnessed Ye Chen’s alchemy, Elder Tiandan felt as if he had wasted his entire life!

At this moment, he had no doubt about Ye Chen’s identity as an Alchemy Saint Master!

At the same time, Elder Tiandan’s eyes flickered; after Saint Master finished refining pills, he must request to become a disciple. Following such a master of alchemy, listening to his teachings, would be the pinnacle of fortune for any alchemist like himself!

He even wondered, was Ye Chen truly youthful because he had refined some legendary Immortal Pill that gave him eternal youth?

The more he mused, the more plausible it seemed. Otherwise, how could the Saint Master achieve such accomplishments in the Dao of Alchemy at such a tender age?

Unconsciously, Elder Tiandan’s gaze towards Ye Chen grew ever more reverent.

He couldn’t fathom why the Saint Master would be Gu Xuan’s disciple.

To Elder Tiandan’s perspective, Ye Chen’s prowess in the Dao of Alchemy seemed profound; every moment of the process to refine the Golden Witch Body Refining Pill refreshed his understanding of the Dao of Alchemy, with every detail worthy of deep reflection.

Furthermore, Ye Chen’s level of cultivation must exceed his own, marking him as a terrifying existence beyond the Late-stage Qiankun Realm, merely appearing youthful due to consuming some Immortal Pill for eternal youth.

Such an existence, the idea of a mere Qiankun Realm late-stage girl being his master, seemed utterly absurd!
