Chen Fei walked towards the hot spring and prepared to start cultivating the Suppressing Dragon Elephant.
After settling the matter of the Flying Ascent Pill’s formula, Chen Fei’s time became much more relaxed. Now, he only needed to grind the proficiency of the Suppressing Dragon Elephant and cultivate his inner strength daily. The other cultivation techniques had already been cultivated to the level of perfection.
Chen Fei decided to wait for the Alchemist Alliance’s mission to be completed before finding an opportunity to look for Si Yuanhai and see if he could learn the method to enter the Strange Heart Realm.
Even if he didn’t venture into the Strange Heart Realm, entering it every day to temper his own core soul energy was a huge boost to his cultivation.
The Receival Bead’s aperture shattered, and a surge of Vital Energy surged into Chen Fei’s body. The Suppressing Dragon Elephant revolved, tearing apart the Vital Energy and fusing it into Chen Fei’s bones.
The master-level Suppressing Dragon Elephant had already begun to temper Chen Fei’s bones. Just like the martial artist’s five states of body tempering, the Suppressing Dragon Elephant also followed the same steps.
As he was cultivating with his eyes closed, Chen Fei’s expression suddenly changed slightly. Some small sounds entered Chen Fei’s ears.
Chen Fei’s current senses were much sharper than those in the Visceral Tempering realm. Although the sound was very soft, Chen Fei still caught it.
Chen Fei’s figure disappeared from the hot spring. When he reappeared, he was already in a corner of the courtyard, stabbing his sword at the fake mountain.
“Ding!”
The sound of swords clashing rang out, and the surface of the rockery seemed to have turned into water. A figure emerged from it, and with a leap, he rushed out of the hot spring courtyard.
Chen Fei’s figure flashed and arrived on the roof. Looking at the assassin in the distance, a longbow appeared in Chen Fei’s hand. In the next moment, three arrows were shot at the assassin.
The arrows were extremely fast and caught up to the assassin’s back in an instant. The assassin sensed something was wrong. He turned his head back to look and was shocked. He subconsciously slashed at the arrow.
“Bang!”
A ball of flames rose and surrounded the assassin.
Chen Fei’s face revealed a smile. This was Chen Fei’s specially made arrow. This flame attack was actually not strong. The main thing was that it contained some poison powder. When it was in contact with fire, it could produce even more intense changes.
However, to be honest, this kind of thing was not very useful to true experts, especially those in the Visceral Tempering realm. They had tempered all their internal organs once, so even if they were poisoned, they could still quickly expel the poison unless the amount was very large.
However, one still couldn’t escape the early stages of poisoning, dizziness, and ringing, and that would come in useful.
As expected, the assassin’s movements were paused for a moment. Chen Fei sent dozens of arrows flying over, one of which pierced the assassin’s left arm.
However, the assassin also took advantage of this time to jump into the alley and disappear after a few flashes.
Chen Fei didn’t chase after him and put away his longbow. The assassin’s actions were a little strange, especially after he jumped out of the courtyard. He didn’t escape into the alley immediately but ran on the roof.
Perhaps the other party did not expect Chen Fei to have a bow and arrow, but that posture clearly had the suspicion of luring Chen Fei into chasing after him.
Chen Fei returned to the inn and checked the formation of the Heaven Room. It was intact, and he could not help but shake his head slightly. This formation was only effective against prying eyes. It had no effect on intruders.
Several miles away.
“Are you hurt? Where is he?”
“That Chen Fei was very cautious and didn’t follow. I was injured by his bow and arrow. His arrow is even poisoned. This kid is really…” As the assassin spoke, he couldn’t help but scratch the skin on his back, which was now full of blisters.
When he scratched, his hand was covered in pus, itchy, numb, and painful.
This poison was not fatal. If it was fatal, it would be easy to get rid of it because the location of the poison was too obvious. On the contrary, this kind of poison targeted all sorts of strange locations. Instead, it took a lot of time to clear it, and it was also extremely painful.
“Did you find anything?”
“No, we were discovered as soon as we infiltrated.”
“Alright, go and rest. I’ll go back and report.”
The voice quickly fell silent, leaving only the assassin’s constant scratching and cursing.
The next morning, Chen Fei arrived at the Alchemist Alliance.
“Young Master, are you here for the mission?” Qin Jinglan looked at Chen Fei, her eyes flashing.
“Yes, please report it.” Chen Fei said with a smile.
“Please wait a moment, Young Master.”
Qin Jinglan actively ran to the counter to report. In just a moment, Tu Jilin’s figure appeared in front of Chen Fei.
“Senior Tu!” Chen Fei cupped his hands.
“Are you planning to submit the pill formula from yesterday, or are there new developments?”
Tu Jilin looked at Chen Fei and asked with uncertainty. Seeing Chen Fei’s confident appearance yesterday, he should not have come to submit the old pill formula. But now, only a day had passed, and there was already a new harvest?
What kind of efficiency was this!
“Senior Tu, please try this.”
Chen Fei handed over the pill bottle containing the full-veined Flying Ascent Pill. Tu Jilin subconsciously took it and glanced at Chen Fei before opening the bottle.
A light medicinal fragrance wafted out. Tu Jilin’s expression changed slightly. This fragrance was very different from the usual Flying Ascent Pill.
Tu Jilin impatiently poured the pill into the porcelain plate. As the Flying Ascent Pill rolled, the Pill Veins on the top were clearly visible. They were complete Pill Veins, not half Pill Veins like yesterday.
Tu Jilin’s eyes widened slightly as he looked at Chen Fei in surprise. Then, he carefully examined the Flying Ascent Pill. He had really refined it?
However, it was still impossible to be completely certain. After all, there were actually many ways to make pills form Pill Veins. The difficult part was how to control the cost of the pills.
“You still need to refine it on the spot. At that time, there will be a few people present to verify it.” Tu Jilin finished observing the Flying Ascent Pill and did not find any other problems. He turned to look at Chen Fei and said.
Chen Fei nodded and did not object. This was the process.
Chen Fei was led to a large pill room. The Alliance was very efficient. In just a short while, there were already a few other old pill refiners standing in the pill room.
“Let’s begin.” Tu Jilin signaled to Chen Fei that they could start.
Chen Fei nodded his head and began to select the medicinal ingredients. Most of them were the original ingredients of the Flying Ascent Pill, and some were other ingredients that Chen Fei had chosen in order to increase the conflict between the medicinal properties.
Tu Jilin and the others silently watched Chen Fei’s actions and estimated the cost. Compared to the original Flying Ascent Pill, there was not much difference.
Chen Fei checked the pill furnace and did not find any problems. He started the fire, set up the furnace, and the rising flames licked the entire furnace.
Other than Tu Jilin, the other alchemists’ expressions were slightly fluctuating. It was obvious that it was their first time seeing such a pill refining technique. It was quite shocking.
The medicinal fragrance began to spread, but immediately, the medicinal fragrance gradually became faint, and in the end, it was even barely noticeable.
Tu Jilin and the others looked at each other and saw the surprise in each other’s eyes. He had really used these medicinal herbs to refine a full-veined Flying Ascent Pill.
A quarter of an hour passed, and with a dull sound, the lid of the furnace opened. Tu Jilin and the others could not wait to step forward and look at the situation inside the pill furnace.
Three Flying Ascent Pills lay quietly in the furnace, the pill patterns clearly visible.
“The younger generation is formidable!” An alchemist said in a low voice.
“Little friend, where is your master? I would like to visit another day.” Another pill refiner couldn’t help but ask curiously. This kind of pill refining method was too curious.
“I am self-taught, now under the tutelage of the Primordial Sword Sect.” Chen Fei cupped his hands.
Tu Jilin didn’t say anything. He looked at the Flying Ascent Pill in his hand. It was exactly the same as the one Chen Fei had sent over. Looking at Chen Fei’s state of ease just now, it was obvious that this kind of refinement could be repeated.
In other words, after learning the pill formula, if others had sufficient ability, they could also refine such a Flying Ascent Pill.
Let’s verify the effects of the medicine. If there’s no problem, I think we can inform the Alliance Master.” Tu Jilin turned to look at the other alchemists.
“Of course.”
“That’s right!”
The other pill refiners nodded in agreement. They could not wait to see the pill formula. What kind of technique could actually refine such a Flying Ascent Pill?
The verification of the medicinal pill passed very quickly. An hour later, Chen Fei met with the Alliance Master of the Alchemist Alliance, Wei Xingshan.
Wei Xingshan looked at the pill formula in his hand. With his own pill refining skills, he only needed a moment to understand the principle of the pill formula in his hand. He could even refine it immediately.
“Ingenious, almost all the medicinal properties in the medicinal ingredients were stimulated.” Wei Xingshan shifted his gaze away from the pill formula and raised his head to look at Chen Fei with a hint of admiration in his eyes.
Before coming, Wei Xingshan already knew all of Chen Fei’s information. He remembered that Chen Fei came to the Alliance for help and said that he was being bullied by Hong Yuanfeng of the Immortal Cloud Sword Sect.
“Thank you for your praise, Alliance Master!” Chen Fei cupped his hands.
“Your refining technique is almost at the peak. However, according to the rules, you still have to wait for more than ten days before I can give you the reward,” Wei Xingshan said with a smile.
“Junior understands.” Chen Fei nodded.
“This pill formula is extraordinary. What do you plan to do with it?”
Chen Fei was startled. Wasn’t this pill formula used to exchange for the Origin Awakening Pill? Why did it sound like it could be used to deal with the ownership of this pill formula?
“The Alliance set up this mission to encourage everyone to be more innovative. Although the pill formulas still have to be sold to the Alliance, the profits still belong to you.”
Wei Xingshan saw Chen Fei’s expression and understood that Chen Fei had misunderstood this mission. He could not help but explain.
The huge Alchemist Alliance actually possessed a huge amount of resources. Although such a pill formula was extraordinary, Wei Xingshan did not really take it seriously.
In the end, the Flying Ascent Pill was only a top-notch medicinal pill in the Body Tempering realm. However, in the eyes of true experts, the Body Tempering realm was just the beginning.
Chen Fei’s eyes lit up slightly. He could actually sell the pill formula. Now, he had to consider whether to buy it out or split it.
The pill formula that Chen Fei had created actually had obvious advantages and disadvantages.
The advantage was naturally that the medicinal efficacy of the Flying Ascent Pill had increased greatly. There were fewer impurities, and it was easier to refine.
However, the weakness was also very prominent. That was, the difficulty of refining was actually very high. In the process, extremely complicated control techniques had to be used. At the very least, one had to cultivate the Fasting Pill to perfection, or even close to perfection, to control the details.
In other words, it would probably be very difficult for the majority of Tier 7 alchemists to refine the full-veined Flying Ascent Pill. If they were to split the profits, they would probably get a wave of sales dividends in the early stages. However, once their reputation spread, the number of people who would change would probably decrease.
“Can I use this pill recipe to exchange for the Alliance’s Thousand Thread Technique?” Chen Fei suddenly raised his head and asked..
