Chapter 1523: Chapter 1514: Advancement to 2-Star Alchemist
In the mountain valley.
As Dong Xiaomei and Dong Chengfei anxiously waited.
Dong Yehai and the other two brought Ye Chenfeng into the valley.
Dong Xiaomei was evidently still angry with Ye Chenfeng, firstly because he did not give her the Moon Slayer Sword; secondly, because he wandered off, causing her father to go out searching.
After bringing Ye Chenfeng back to the valley, Dong Yehai said to Dong Xiaomei, “Xiaomei, you and Chengfei take care of Brother Ye here; we need to start preparing for the Sea Clan event in twenty days.”
After giving his instructions to Dong Xiaomei.
Dong Yehai exchanged a few words with Ye Chenfeng before he and Wufeng Jiang, Wufeng Chi left the valley.
Given that both of Li Yanshan’s sons had died, this time at the Sea Clan event, Dong Yehai and the others needed to make comprehensive preparations.
After Dong Yehai and the others left, Dong Xiaomei glared at Ye Chenfeng, then said to Dong Chengfei, “Why are you still standing here? Come with me.”
As Dong Xiaomei left the valley, she said to Ye Chenfeng with annoyance, “We’ll be outside, call us if you need anything.”
Evidently, Dong Xiaomei’s anger had yet to subside, and she did not wish to see Ye Chenfeng.
Dong Chengfei whispered to Ye Chenfeng, “Boss, if you need anything, just call me. My sister’s just like that, she’ll be fine in a few days.”
After speaking, Dong Chengfei quickly followed Dong Xiaomei out of the valley.
The ancient saying goes, managing women and petty men is difficult.
Ye Chenfeng shrugged with a bitter smile, it seems the ancients were right.
Ye Chenfeng put the Moon Slayer Sword back into the storage ring and sheathed the Black Xuan Sword, once lodged in the valley ground, onto his back. As Old Black had said, until he broke through to the Creation Realm, he needed to rely on the Black Xuan Sword in battle.
Moreover, the three style sword moves of the heavy sword required a heavy sword to exert their power.
With the Black Xuan Sword hanging on his back, Ye Chenfeng walked towards the wooden house in the valley. Now, he was truly a Fifth-Rank Artifact Refiner, while Old White and Old Black were still pondering how to break the formation. Ye Chenfeng also needed to improve his artifact refining skills.
Entering the wooden house, Ye Chenfeng casually sat on the floor. With a shimmer from his storage ring, a black medicine cauldron appeared in front of him.
Seated cross-legged on the ground, Ye Chenfeng didn’t immediately start alchemy; his thoughts involuntarily drifted to the Soul-Imprisoning Talisman used by Li Pengtian and Li Pengyun earlier.
Ye Chenfeng knew that in the Earth Profound Realm, those who could create Spirit Talismans were called Talisman Masters.
Being a Talisman Master shared the same nature as being an Alchemist or an Artifact Refiner.
Back then, in the Secular World, there was an Underwater Palace.
At that time, Ye Chenfeng and Lin Xinyi were teleported into a peculiar room within the palace.
It was in that room where Song Chunmei from the Yinming Sect captured Lin Xinyi and broke all of Ye Chenfeng’s bones and meridians.
Fortunately, there was a bottle of elixir pills in that room, which allowed Ye Chenfeng to recover.
Besides the elixir pills, there was also an iron token and a book titled “Talismans” in that room within the palace.
Old White and Old Black had already explained the origins of the Underwater Palace in the secular world.
During Old White and Old Black’s era, the Yinming Sect was a formidable entity. A young man was expelled from the Yinming Sect, and through his efforts, continuously improved his strength, reaching the highest realm as a supreme rune master in the field of talismans.
According to Old White and Old Black, the palace under the Secular World’s sea was a secret treasure of the Yinming Sect, a treasure that reached the level of a semi-Immortal Artifact. The same person expelled from the Yinming Sect is then said to have stolen this semi-Immortal Artifact.
The iron token was the key to controlling the palace. Once Ye Chenfeng reached a certain strength, he would be able to summon the underwater palace in the Secular World through the iron token.
The book titled “Talismans” contained the life’s work of the supreme rune master.
In that book, various methods for creating Spirit Talismans are recorded, along with different experiences.
Now Ye Chenfeng was becoming increasingly interested in becoming a Talisman Master. He remembered Old White and Old Black mentioning that to begin the path of a Talisman Master, one must reach the Divine Thought Realm because creating Spirit Talismans required the power of divine sense.
Ye Chenfeng, having reached the peak of the Second Heavenly Layer of the Divine Thought Realm, asked in his heart, “Old White, Old Black, can I start learning to inscribe Spirit Talismans now?”
Old Black Jiang Yuntian directly refused, “Not yet.”
Old White Wu Fengxian explained, “Little fellow, you are currently on the path of both an Artifact Refiner and an Alchemist. If you immediately start on the path of a Talisman Master as well, it will be very detrimental to you.”
“However, we don’t oppose you becoming a Talisman Master eventually, but wait until you have raised both your artifact refining and alchemy to the Sixth Rank before starting on the path of a Talisman Master.”
“Now, you should focus your energy on artifact refining and alchemy.”
Ye Chenfeng understood the wisdom in not biting off more than he could chew. After listening to Old White’s words, he gradually calmed his mind. For now, he aimed to become a Sixth-Rank Alchemist and Sixth-Rank Artifact Refiner first.
It had been a while since Ye Chenfeng last practiced alchemy, and he wanted to reacquaint himself with the feeling.
Ye Chenfeng was now only a First-Grade Alchemist, and he planned to first refine some First-Grade Spirit Nourishing Pills and Spirit Supplementing Pills to adjust his state.
Spirit Nourishing Pills are meant to help cultivators enhance their cultivation, and Spirit Supplementing Pills are used to replenish spiritual energy within the body.
Ye Chenfeng’s storage ring contained mostly High Grade Spirit Stones and various Spirit Grass, as he had emptied the Blood Soul Clan’s treasury earlier.
To refine Spirit Nourishing Pills, Blood Heart Flower, Thousand Spirit Herb, Skywood Herb, and Reviving Spirit Fruit were needed.
The storage ring flashed, and a large pile of Spirit Grass needed for refining Spirit Nourishing Pills filled the space beside him.
Ye Chenfeng flipped his palm, and the Green Flame appeared in his hand.
Then, with a flick of his finger, the Green Flame immediately flew into the black Medicine Cauldron.
Ye Chenfeng skillfully tossed the Spirit Grass required for refining Spirit Nourishing Pills into the black Medicine Cauldron one after another, constantly controlling the temperature of the Green Flame.
Ye Chenfeng had refined Spirit Nourishing Pills and Spirit Supplementing Pills many times before, using this to find his rhythm.
After one day.
Inside the wooden house in the valley.
The floor was covered with hundreds of porcelain bottles, each containing six elixir pills, filled with Spirit Nourishing Pills and Spirit Supplementing Pills.
Ye Chenfeng had refined these hundreds of bottles of Spirit Nourishing Pills and Spirit Supplementing Pills after a day and night of work.
The wooden house was filled with the fragrance of elixir pills.
After refining hundreds of bottles of Spirit Nourishing Pills and Spirit Supplementing Pills, Ye Chenfeng reached the optimal state for alchemy. After a brief rest, he said in his mind, “Old Bai, I can refine Second-Grade Elixir Pills.”
Old Bai said, “The hardest to refine among Second-Grade Elixir Pills is the Mind-Nourishing Pill, which specifically enhances the power of Divine Sense. If you can refine the most difficult Mind-Nourishing Pill, then you should have no problem with other Second-Grade Elixir Pills, and by then, you should be considered a Second-Grade Alchemist.”
“Little fellow, I’ll demonstrate the process in your mind, watch each step carefully.”
After Old Bai finished his demonstration.
Ye Chenfeng took a deep breath, exhaled slowly, aiming to enter an Ethereal State. After adjusting with closed eyes for ten seconds, Ye Chenfeng slowly opened his eyes, which were now serene.
To refine Second-Grade Mind-Nourishing Pills, Goldwood Grass, Blood-Activating Flower, Divine Soul Fruit, Black Orchid Grass, and Iron Ginseng Root were needed.
Ye Chenfeng’s storage ring contained all these Spirit Grass.
After reviewing the refining process of Mind-Nourishing Pills in his mind, Ye Chenfeng tossed the five types of Spirit Grass, including Goldwood Grass, into the black Medicine Cauldron, cautiously controlling the burning of the Green Flame inside.
“Poof!” was heard.
However, shortly after, the Spirit Grass turned to ashes in the Medicine Cauldron.
Ye Chenfeng’s first attempt at refining Mind-Nourishing Pills ended in failure.
Nonetheless, Ye Chenfeng was not one to easily admit defeat. After pondering where he went wrong, he started a second attempt.
As time went by.
The second attempt was much smoother than the first; Ye Chenfeng cautiously controlled the Green Flame, as the Spirit Grass in the Medicine Cauldron gradually fused together.
About twenty minutes later.
A fragrance wafted out of the Medicine Cauldron, and the elixir pills inside began to take shape.
Yet Ye Chenfeng dared not be careless.
Five minutes later.
A purple glow flashed inside the Medicine Cauldron, accompanied by a rich fragrance.
Ye Chenfeng retrieved the Green Flame and found six purple elixir pills quietly lying in the Medicine Cauldron, these were the Mind-Nourishing Pills.
Ye Chenfeng succeeded on his second attempt at refining them? These are the most difficult among Second-Grade Elixir Pills.
Old Bai, Wu Fengxian could only smile wryly at this, as Ye Chenfeng’s talent amazed both him and Old Hei.
A few days ago, Old Hei was constantly being impressed, and now it was Old Bai’s turn to be amazed by Ye Chenfeng.
The Mind-Nourishing Pill was successfully refined.
Ye Chenfeng smoothly became a genuine Second-Grade Alchemist.
