Chapter 432 The Demon-Transforming Pill Formula!
Hong Haotian, being quite astute, smiled and said, "Vice-President Shangguan, please bring the Demon-Transforming Pill formula. Let's not keep Elder Ling waiting."
Ling Feng touched his nose and breathed a sigh of relief.
After all this effort, he finally got the formula for the Demon-Transforming Pill. He also had the primary ingredient, the crystal core of a thousand-year-old demonic shen.
In about a month, the promotion assessment at Tianwei Academy would take place. Typically, after the assessment, there would be a two-month break, which would be the perfect time for him to head to the demon domain in Nanjiang.
Not long after, Vice-President Shangguan Chu hurried back and handed Ling Feng a yellowed parchment scroll with a smile. "Elder Ling, this is the Demon-Transforming Pill formula. If you need to refine the pill, we can gather all the materials within ten days, except for the crystal core of the thousand-year-old demonic shen, which we currently don't have."
Hong Haotian also walked over with a smile, saying, "I've examined this scroll many times and have some insights. When you start refining the pill, I can assist you. Also, you can use the Six-legged Taotie Cauldron."
"Oh?" Ling Feng raised an eyebrow. It seemed the Alchemist Guild wanted to win him over by going all out to please him.
They were offering materials, a cauldron, and even Hong Haotian's personal assistance. Ling Feng touched his nose and looked at Yan Cangtian. Given his limited experience, it was better to seek Yan Cangtian's advice.
Yan Cangtian patted Ling Feng on the shoulder and laughed, "Since stingy old Hong here is willing to pluck his own feathers, what are you hesitating for? He's probably interested in the ancient pill formulas you have. Hehehe..."
Hong Haotian blushed and glared at Yan Cangtian, then coughed awkwardly. "Elder Ling, don't listen to his nonsense. As our chief elder, your matters are naturally the guild's matters as well!"
Ling Feng raised an eyebrow. Everyone understood the real motives, but it was still necessary to say some nice words. "Thank you, president. As for the crystal core of the demonic shen, I have a lead on that. I will return in ten days to start the pill refinement!"
"Great, we will begin refining the pill in ten days," Hong Haotian nodded. He didn't know where Ling Feng got the confidence to obtain the crystal core in such a short time, but if he could, Hong Haotian would be happy to witness the birth of the extraordinary Demon-Transforming Pill.
Who knows what surprises Ling Feng would bring then.
...
After some pleasantries, Hong Haotian hosted a banquet for Ling Feng, which lasted until sunset. Ling Feng then returned to Tianwei Academy alone.
Yan Cangtian stayed behind at the Alchemist Guild, as he had other matters to attend to.
Walking through the bustling streets of the imperial capital at sunset, Ling Feng felt a sense of nostalgia.
He didn't expect things to go so smoothly with the Demon-Transforming Pill. However, even if the pill was successfully refined, infiltrating the demon domain in Nanjiang, avoiding detection, and entering the sacred land of Heavenly Demon City to obtain the second part of the Reincarnation Sword Emperor's inheritance would be extremely difficult.
But to save his life, he had to take the risk.
After all, the Reincarnated Sword Will's sword embryo lurking in his sea of mind would backfire on his spiritual consciousness if he broke through to the Transformation Realm. He would then be trapped in endless reincarnation, forever losing his consciousness.
He had to obtain the Reincarnation Sword Emperor's inheritance before advancing to the Transformation Realm. Only by transforming the sword embryo into a complete sword will could he avoid this catastrophe.
As he pondered, Ling Feng noticed a little girl, around five or six years old, standing in front of a shop. She was curiously touching and looking at the various items on the shelves, her eyes full of excitement and wonder.
Ling Feng couldn't help but smile. The girl's cute and innocent appearance evoked a sense of childlike innocence in him.
Perhaps Ling Feng had forgotten when the innocent boy, who used to study medicine by his grandfather's side, had become an adult who had to suppress his feelings.
Grandfather, where are you...?
Ling Feng clenched his fists, feeling emotional.
The girl seemed to notice Ling Feng's gaze and playfully made a face at him before continuing to look at the cute items, seemingly wanting to buy them but with no adult around to help her.
Seeing this, Ling Feng shook his head with a smile. He was about to step forward and buy the items for her when suddenly, a loud and barbaric voice came from up the street.
"Move aside! Make way! Do you know whose dragon carriage this is?"
Ling Feng frowned and looked up to see a middle-aged man with a full beard standing on a dragon carriage pulled by a plate-armored earth dragon. He was frantically whipping the beast while ignoring the crowd on the street, causing it to recklessly charge forward.
The plate-armored earth dragon, a third-tier demonic beast with immense strength, rampaged down the street, knocking over stalls and sending people flying.
Sitting on the carriage, a man in a green robe, surrounded by women, laughed heartily as the dragon caused chaos. "This is fun! So much fun! Zhang Bao, speed up! Go faster! Hahaha..."
The people on the street were terrified by the giant demonic beast earth dragon and scattered in all directions. The once lively and bustling market suddenly turned chaotic and disordered.
