Unrivaled Medicine God c1-1444

Spirit Wind Pill was a type of actual combat medicinal pill. Its applicability was very broad.
After consuming a Spirit Wind Pill, the martial artist could muster essence energy at an increased rate. When unleashing the same move, a martial artist who consumed a Spirit Wind Pill could save half the time!
At a realm like the Sea Transformation Realm, saving half the time to unleash a move meant holding an absolute initiative!
Your move was already released while others were still accumulating power to unleash their move. Which martial artist did not wish to have such an advantage?
If the Tranquil Cloud Sect’s Sea Transformation Realm martial artists carried such a medicinal pill around with them, their combat power would undoubtedly soar!
It was precisely so that Shao Yun expended such a huge amount of energy on this medicinal pill.
But this sort of Tier 4 medicinal pills was really not so easy to refine.
The defective products that he refined not only had extremely severe side effects, but the medicinal effects also were not obvious either. Such a medicinal pill was clearly unable to be used for actual battle.
Now that he had resolved this difficult problem, Shao Yun felt reinvigorated, and his spirit refreshed. He decided to properly thank Ye Yuan!
As for the matter of finding Ye Yuan to compete, it was long tossed beyond the ninth heaven by him.
After exiting seclusion, Shao Yun ran straight to the Earth Barracks No. 72, but he just happened to bump into Ye Yuan leaving with a young man.
“En? Ye Yuan, Guo Bin, where are you guys heading to?” Shao Yun asked with a face full of smiles.
Ye Yuan was at a loss. He did not even recognize this person. He only remembered that Shao Yun seemed to be a Pill Hall elder. As for his name, he could not recall it.
When Guo Bin saw Shao Yun, shock was written all over his face. He hurriedly went up to salute. “Disciple Guo Bin has seen Martial Uncle Shao. Replying martial uncle, Sect Master made me call Ye Yuan over to question him. Did Martial Uncle Shao exit seclusion?”
“En? Question? Did something happen?” Shao Yun’s face fell as he asked.
Guo Bin hesitated for a moment, but still summed up the incident simply. Speaking of which, Shao Yun was the first person sent to seclusion by Ye Yuan.
But when Shao Yun heard him, he immediately flew into a great rage. “Utter nonsense! What sorcerer? Ye Yuan is someone who rendered meritorious service upon the Tranquil Cloud Sect! Aren’t I perfectly fine? When did I get hexed? Which bastard talked behind my back? Is this cursing this Elder? Come, I’ll go along with you to see Sect Master together!”
He turned to Ye Yuan again and said, “Ye Yuan, I’m called Shao Yun, the Pill Hall’s Fifth Seat Elder. Thanks to you, I finally successfully refined the Spirit Wind Pill!”
When Ye Yuan heard that, he immediately knew who the other party was.
Those few level eight missions were naturally incomparably easy to Ye Yuan. Therefore, he prepared over a dozen copies of jade slips.
Whoever came, Lu-er would directly hand the jade slip to him after enquiring that person’s name.
It was also under such a circumstance that after eight elders announced closed-seclusions, nobody came by anymore.
Seeing Shao Yun express thanks, Ye Yuan smiled and said, “Just a simple matter that’s not worth mentioning.”
“Ugh, to you, it’s a simple matter. But to me and the sect, it’s a huge matter! Originally, when Grand Elder made you a nominal elder, I, Old Shao, was truthfully speaking unconvinced. But now, I’m sincerely convinced! Come, I’ll help you explain to the sect master!”
Finishing, Shao Yun dragged Ye Yuan and walked off.
Guo Bin by the side was shocked to the absolute limit!
Nominal elder? What kind of situation was this?
A Spirit Condensation Realm core disciple was actually a Pill Hall nominal elder?
When he came to look for Ye Yuan just now, his attitude was quite arrogant and bossy. Fortunately, Ye Yuan was rather cooperative. Otherwise, he would have made a move.
Thinking of how he nearly struck out against a Pill Hall elder, Guo Bin could not help breaking out in cold sweat.
Offending one’s superior, such a crime was not what he could afford to bear!
Guo Bin’s status in the sect was even higher than Mo Yuntian and Xin Lie because he was Sect Master Luo Qingfeng’s personal disciple.
Even with this layer of identity there, if Ye Yuan were bent on pursuing it, he would also land himself in serious trouble!
Moreover, Shao Yun even said just now that Ye Yuan’s nominal elder was personally conferred by Grand Elder. Grand Elder was Luo Qingfeng’s martial uncle!
After just two steps, Shao Yun suddenly thought of something and turned around to say to Guo Bin, “If you heard that just now, then fine. But you’re not allowed to spread it around, got it?”
Guo Bin nodded mechanically, somewhat spaced out. Not sure if he really heard it or pretended to.
. . . . . .
When Luo Qingfeng and Ouyang Yu saw Shao Yun arrived together with Ye Yuan, they were at a loss.
“Why did you come, Shao Yun?” Ouyang Yu asked in puzzlement.
Shao Yun gave the two a bow and directly said, “Sect Master, Hall Head, you two are mistaken! Ye Yuan did not cast any spells on us but performed deeds of valor for the sect! If you punish Ye Yuan, wouldn’t this disappoint the hearts of all the disciples and elders bitterly?”
“Deeds of valor? What does that mean?” Luo Qingfeng asked uncertainly.
Shao Yun recounted the process of the incident, leaving the pair staring with their mouth agape.
No matter how they racked their brains, they could not figure out just how Ye Yuan’s Alchemy Dao level would be so high at such a young age? Could it be that he started learning alchemy skills in his mother’s womb?
“If my conjectures are correct, the other elders should be the same as me. Ye Yuan helped them resolve a problem that had troubled them for many years. That’s also to say that our Tranquil Cloud Sect’s Alchemy Path strength will take a huge stride forward! You guys tell me, did Ye Yuan perform valorous deeds?” Shao Yun was all worked up.
Luo Qingfeng and Ouyang Yu exchanged glances and saw the astonishment in the other party’s eyes.
“Ye Yuan, why didn’t you say earlier that you did something so big? We nearly wronged you!” Luo Qingfeng looked at Ye Yuan as he sighed emotionally.
Ye Yuan chuckled and said, “Actually, Grand Elder purposely goaded everyone to find trouble with me on that day. I guessed Grand Elder’s intentions, so I also made preparations in advance. These few days, I avoided meeting people not because I want to put on airs in front of the elders, but because I was really training in closed-seclusion. The sect’s grand competition is about to begin. I had just broken through realms recently and needed to consolidate my cultivation realm.”
The sect grand competition was about to begin in another two or three days. Ye Yuan was also itching to give this competition a go.
The reason why he entered the sect was in order to have exchanges in martial arts with all kinds of geniuses. This way, he could rise even quicker!
Even though Ye Yuan was formerly a Divine King Realm powerhouse, his foundation on the martial path was too weak. He basically had no real combat experiences.
While the horizons of these sect geniuses were not as high as Ye Yuan’s, they naturally had their forte to be called geniuses in the sect.
Such a competition was also an extremely good opportunity for Ye Yuan to temper himself. Why would he miss it?
In order to deal with Ji Canglan, Ye Yuan must experience countless bitter fights. How could he be able to temper himself for future battles without going through all these?
Through some medicinal pills and cultivation these few days, Ye Yuan already thoroughly consolidated his realm.
He was sharpening his knife just to deal with this upcoming grand competition.
Towards something good like this, Ye Yuan obviously would not reject it. Hence, he nodded and accepted it.
The following two days, Ye Yuan continued to make preparations for the sect grand competition while the elders in closed-seclusion all exited seclusion one after another!
After they exited seclusion, they obviously heard all kinds of rumors and gossips. They all went to find Luo Qingfeng to explain for Ye Yuan. Luo Qingfeng had to expend a great deal of effort before he could explain it clearly.
After two days, the sect grand competition was about to begin. But Ye Yuan welcomed a guest . . .

A few days ago, he received Ye Yuan’s message asking him to make a trip back to the sect saying that he already collected enough points and could exchange for the lower half of the Purple Center Soul Incantation.
Receiving this news, the shock in Jiang Yunhe’s heart could not be any greater.
It was not even a month since Ye Yuan left the State of Qin. He already earned enough points?
One had to know that he had already been the dean in the State of Qin for over ten years before barely scrimping 1 million points. He still lacked 400 thousand points.
Ye Yuan actually earned 400 thousand points using less than a month!
He told Ye Yuan that he had 1 million points, so he thought that Ye Yuan only had 400 thousand.
But when Jiang Yunhe met Ye Yuan, and he directly transferred 1.4 million points into his identity token, he stared at Ye Yuan blankly for a long time unable to say anything.
“This . . . This. . . It hasn’t even been a month since you entered the sect. Where did so many points come from?” Jiang Yunhe asked in astonishment.
“Hur hur, extorted a small sum and also did some missions,” Ye Yuan explained with a chuckle.
Seeing Ye Yuan dismiss it lightly, Jiang Yunhe’s heart crumbled. Who did he extort to get so many points? Even elite disciples and them, these external staff members, could not possibly have so many points on them, right?”
Jiang Yunhe’s brain could not quite wrap itself around this. After a long while, he shook his head and said, “No can do. I’ve already amassed roughly 1 million points these few years. I don’t need so much. Just 400 thousand will do. I’ll transfer the rest back to you. You’ve just entered the sect and don’t know the preciousness of points. Save these points to use for yourself.”
“After Dean Jiang exchanged for the Purple Center Soul Incantation, you still have to think of ways to raise your realm. There are still many areas you need to use points for. Keep your points for yourself. Don’t worry, Dean Jiang, I have plenty of points. Even cultivating to the Sea Transformation Realm inside the sect is enough,” Ye Yuan said.
Jiang Yunhe sucked in a cold breath instead. Enough even to cultivate to the Sea Transformation Realm? How many points was that?!
Those dozen over jade slips that Ye Yuan prepared were all put to use in the end. The worst among these jade slips were level seven missions.
The points from over a dozen missions added up virtually caught to up Skymaple’s level nine mission. It was close to 300 thousand points.
In addition to the one million points from selling the pill formula and Skymaple’s 500 thousand points, Ye Yuan roughly had around three million points on hand!
Even if he transferred 1.4 million to Jiang Yunhe, he still had 1.6 million points left. Even if he spent every day in an A-grade cultivation room, he could stay for 20 years!
If he really did that, would Ye Yuan be limited to the Sea Transformation Realm?
Of course, Ye Yuan naturally would not use such a clumsy training method. Sea Transformation Realm was not as distant as others imagined in Ye Yuan’s viewpoint.
Ye Yuan would not spend these points like that . . . He would spend them even more extravagantly.
The next few days, Ye Yuan already spent several tens of thousands of points. The vast majority of them were used to exchange for some rarer Tier 2 and Tier 3 medicinal herbs.
To Ye Yuan, points were just numbers. The real thing was the most fundamental.
When he was at the State of Qin, Tier 3 medicinal herbs were already extremely precious. Even if Ye Yuan had abilities to mount the heavens, he would also be like a clever wife unable to cook without any rice.
But there were many precious medicinal herbs in the Tranquil Cloud Sect that were simply unseen in the secular world. Ye Yuan could use them to refine many medicinal pills in case of unexpected needs.
Towards Ye Yuan’s words, Jiang Yunhe remained somewhat suspicious. But after he looked at his identity token, Jiang Yunhe finally accepted Ye Yuan’s aid.
“I originally thought that I have to slog for another few more years in the State of Qin, but I didn’t expect happiness to come so quickly. Thank you, Ye Yuan!” Jiang Yunhe said sincerely.
In the Tranquil Cloud Sect, to alchemists, Alchemy Grandmaster to Quasi-Alchemy King was an extremely huge threshold.
Cross it, and one would be a sect elder and belong to the sect upper echelons. Fail to cross it, they could only fade away into the masses and become outer-circle people taking care of the sect.
“Dean Jiang is too courteous. If not for you asking Teacher Huyan to protect me, I’d have already become a dead soul under Su Yubai’s palm. This minor thing is not worth mentioning,” Ye Yuan said with a smile.
“Since that’s the case, I won’t give such a cliché reaction. I’ll accept this big gift! Oh right, tomorrow is the sect grand competition. Ye Yuan, I know that you are extremely strong, but your realm is too low in the end. There are still a few people you have to take note of,” Jiang Yunhe suddenly said.
Ye Yuan also became interested after hearing that. It had been nearly a month since he came to the Tranquil Cloud Sect, but he only had dealings with those Pill Hall elders. He really did not have the time to understand which formidable characters the Martial Hall had.
“I’m willing to hear the details!” Ye Yuan revealed an eager look.
Jiang Yunhe nodded and said, “In my opinion, although you’re in the Earth Barracks now, your strength is already not beneath the Heaven Barracks’ core disciples! Within the Heaven Barracks, there are several people whose strength is relatively heaven-defying. When you encounter them, you have to be careful. Of course, the reason why they are strong is that their realm is much higher than yours. If you guys were at the same level, I believe that you can instantly defeat them!”
Jiang Yunhe’s judgment of Ye Yuan’s strength was actually roughly the same as Mo Yuntian’s.
The Fourth Level Spirit Condensation Realm Ye Yuan was most likely not inferior to those elites in the Heaven Barracks anymore. But when comparing to the pinnacle in the Heaven Barracks, Jiang Yunhe did not have much confidence.
Ye Yuan’s current strength was likely no longer inferior to an ordinary Crystal Formation Realm martial artist.
However, even Ceng Cheng could achieve crossing ranks to kill an ordinary Crystal Formation Realm martial artist. The strength of Heaven Barracks disciples could be imagined!
Don’t think that Ceng Cheng was very formidable in the Earth Barracks. In the Heaven Barracks, he was trash!
Ye Yuan was obviously very clear about his own strength. However, as for how far he could go, he himself did not know how things stood.
“Hur hur, Dean Jiang flatters me. Just which few are they?”
“There
are three people you need to pay attention to. The first is Luo Chengfeng. This person is only at the peak of the Ninth Level Spirit Condensation Realm, but his strength is already firmly in the top three of the Heaven Barracks. Many half-step Crystal Formation Realm Heaven Barracks disciples are not his match. It could be seen how great his strength is! This person is as his name implies, Chengfeng or riding wind; he specializes the most in swift attacks. His opponents tend to have difficulties in following his speed! If you match up with him, take care not to clash with him,” Jiang Yunhe said.
Ye Yuan nodded but did not say anything. He truly had no fear in comparing speed!
Jiang Yunhe continued, “The second person is a girl, her name is Tang Yu-er. She has the extremely rare Innate Water Spirit Body. Only two years older than you but already a half-step Crystal Formation Realm expert! The speed of her cultivation is number one in the Tranquil Cloud Sect! Without any accidents, she will probably be able to break through to the Crystal Formation Realm latest by next year!”
When Jiang Yunhe finished talking, he suddenly felt that something was off and could not resist taking a look at Ye Yuan.
To talk about the monstrosity of cultivation speed, most likely, nobody could compare with this person in front of him, right?
This was not even a month yet, and this boy broke through two realms consecutively again!
Jiang Yunhe knew that Ye Yuan only used three to four month’s time to go from First Level Essence Qi Realm to Fourth Level Spirit Condensation Realm.
No matter how monstrous that Tang Yu-er was, she would most likely need five years, right?

Ye Yuan nodded inwardly and remembered Luo Chengfeng’s and Tang Yu-er’s names.
For Jiang Yunhe to be so serious about this matter, these two people were definitely peak existences in the Heaven Barracks. Their combat power was likely no longer beneath Crystal Formation Realm experts.
The sect grand competition was not a deathmatch. Ye Yuan naturally could not use all of his trump cards.
