  Of course, the points that could be exchanged for each type of medicinal pill was different.

  But in comparison, it was much easier for Pill Hall disciples to obtain points than Martial Hall disciples.

  The majority of Pill Hall disciples had some foundation. Like Nanfeng Ruoqing, an alchemist who was selected to enter the sect, she could directly refine a complete Tier 2 medicinal pill independently. Points would naturally be much easier to earn.

  "This Senior Apprentice Brother, I want a Tier 3 refining room," Ye Yuan said to the disciple on duty.

  The disciple on duty shot Ye Yuan a glance and said in surprise, "You're a Martial Hall disciple, right? Concurrently holding the rank of low-rank Alchemy Master, what are you using such a high tier refining room for? I say, Junior, you don't need to squander points in this manner even if you have a lot, right? You'd better use a Tier 2 refining room."

  Ye Yuan was wearing a Martial Hall disciple outfit, but a two-star badge was hanging from his c.h.e.s.t. That disciple on duty could obviously see it distinctly.

  This disciple on duty was a warm-hearted person who tried to advise Ye Yuan enthusiastically.

  Ye Yuan did not think such a situation would occur. He smiled and said, "Many thanks for Senior Apprentice Brother's concern. But a Tier 2 refining room is really insufficient. It's better you give me a Tier 3 room."

  Tier 2 medicinal cauldrons simply could not withstand the refinement of Tier 3 medicinal pills, because the intensity of flames that Tier 3 medicinal pills required was much stronger than Tier 2 medicinal pills. Even for a peak Tier 2 medicinal cauldron existence, a single mishap, and the cauldron would blow up. Hence, Ye Yuan wanted a Tier 3 refining room.

  "Junior Apprentice Brother is new, right?"

  "Uh, yes. I've only entered the sect for a few days."

  "No wonder! Junior Apprentice Brother is likely still unaware of the value of points. Wasting it like this will affect your future cultivation!"

  ". . . Senior Apprentice Brother, I really want to use the Tier 3 refining room."

  "Sigh, I say, why are you so stubborn? Don't tell me that you, a low-rank Alchemy Master, can refine Tier 3 medicinal pills? One day in a Tier 3 refining room requires 300 points. Even if you have money, you shouldn't spend it like this!"

  Ye Yuan was on the verge of collapsing. But he was truly advising from the bottom of his heart, so he really could not lose his temper.

  Feeling helpless, Ye Yuan directly fished out his identity token and threw it to the disciple on duty, saying, "Swipe away, Senior Apprentice Brother. I do not lack money!"

  Chapter 234 - Tri-Origins Samsara Art!

  The disciple on duty took Ye Yuan's token to swipe it and laugh at the same time as he said, "Haha, you've just entered the sect for a few days, how many . . ."

  The second half of the disciple's words were forcefully stuck in his throat.

  1.13 million and 100 points?

  He read it multiple times before confirming that he did not see wrongly.

  "H-How can there be thi-this much?" The disciple on duty's eyes went wide, and his words even became stutters.

  "Can I enter now? En, two days will do. I'll have to trouble you, Senior Apprentice Brother." Ye Yuan obviously would not explain where these points came from.

  The disciple on duty helped Ye Yuan's swipe 600 points mechanically, then woodenly watched Ye Yuan walk inside.

  Ever since he entered the sect, he had never seen so many points before. This kind of visual impact was truly overwhelming.

  1.1 million points. How many Tier 2 medicinal pills needed to be refined to exchange for that?

  The disciple on duty could not help doing mental arithmetic . . . . . .

  Ye Yuan wanted a Tier 3 refining room naturally to refine Tier 3 medicinal pills.

  The Tier 3 medicinal pills he could refine now were not many. He could basically only refine low-grade Tier 3 medicinal pills, but this was already enough.

  The Demon Crystal Pill was only a low-grade Tier 3 medicinal pill!

  He promised Yuan Fei back then the Demon Crystal Pill, and now, he could already refine it. It was a full 10 months in advance of the time promised back then!

  The ingredients that the Demon Crystal Pill required were not uncommon. Yuan Fei had them prepared long ago. He was only waiting for Ye Yuan to become an Alchemy Grandmaster.

  Ye Yuan formed a seal, and Yuan Fei appeared.

  Seeing that they were in a refining room, Yuan Fei was rather unsure.

  "Young Master, this is?"

  "Yuan Fei, this period of time, you went through fire and water with me. I've always borne this in mind. Now, the time to repay you has arrived," Ye Yuan said with a smile.

  Yuan Fei reacted very swiftly and said delightedly, "Young Master, you mean . . . Demon Crystal Pill?"

  "That's right."

  "But Young Master, you're only . . ."

  Yuan Fei saw Ye Yuan's realm and could not really continue speaking. How could an Alchemy Master refine a Tier 3 medicinal pill?

  "Only an Alchemy Master? Hur hur, don't tell me you think I called you out just to mess with you?" Ye Yuan said with a laugh.

  "Yuan Fei dare not!"

  "I originally thought that I would only have high-rank Alchemy Master soul force at the late stage Spirit Condensation Realm, that's why I promised you a year's time. But now, I already have the soul force of a high-rank Alchemy Master, so we obviously don't need to wait for such a long time."

  Yuan Fei was exuberant when he heard it and said, "Young Master actually has such strength!"

  Ye Yuan nodded and said, "Naturally! Although it will be somewhat strenuous, refining the Demon Crystal Pill shouldn't be an issue."

  The strenuous Ye Yuan talked about was actually referring to insufficient essence energy.

  The consumption of essence energy to alchemists was naturally much greater when refining Tier 3 medicinal pills. If Ye Yuan had late-stage Spirit Condensation Realm strength, refining would be much easier.

  In fact, Ye Yuan's present essence energy could already compare to ordinary late stage Spirit Condensation Realm, but the expenditure of Tier 3 medicinal pills was far from comparable to Tier 2 medicinal pills. That was why it was taxing.

  Listening to Ye Yuan's words, Yuan Fei started to tremble with excitement.

  He gave up the dignity of an ape king to willingly become Ye Yuan's servant, wasn't it for today? Now that Ye Yuan actually realized the first promise so quickly, how could this not agitate him?

  "Yuan Fei thanks Young Master!"

  "Haha, I know that you still have doubts in your heart. So give thanks after I refine the medicinal pill."

  Ye Yuan retrieved the ingredients from his storage ring and started to fiddle with it on the operating station.

  The refinement of Tier 3 medicinal pills was not as easy as Tier 2 medicinal pills. Otherwise, there would not be so few Alchemy Grandmasters.

  Wanting to refine Tier 3 medicinal pills, the b.a.r.e minimum requirement was soul force reaching the degree of Alchemy Grandmaster!

  That also meant that only a heaven-defying existence like Ye Yuan could use refinement techniques to compensate for the inadequacy of soul force.

  But it was not that one could compensate for this kind of inadequacy just by grasping the refining method.

  Ye Yuan's refining technique had to be trained to the Legendary Realm before he could accomplish this sort of impossible task!

  Leaping ranks to refine medicinal pills was much more challenging than crossing ranks to do battle!

  Many martial artists could leap ranks to battle, but there was likely not a single one who could leap ranks to refine medicinal pills in the Endless World!

  Perhaps there were some alchemy path geniuses with powerful soul force that could cross a minor rank to refine medicinal pills, but it was virtually impossible to cross a major realm to refine medicinal pills!

  Forget about the Endless World, even in the Divine Realm, those who co
uld leap ranks to refine medicinal pills were scarce and few.

  The other thing was essence energy. The higher the medicinal pill rank, the greater that expenditure of essence energy. Without the adequate essence energy reserves, it was basically impossible to support the refinement of the medicinal pill to completion.

  Only refining techniques that had reached the Legendary Realm could lessen the consumption of essence energy to the greatest extent to complete this kind of virtually impossible thing.

  Crossing ranks to refine Tier 3 medicinal pills was also a humongous challenge to Ye Yuan. For this, he even specially spent 15 minutes to meditate.

  He only started the preparation work after he completely entered Heart Like Still Water state.

  Preparing the herbs, extracting and refining the medicinal embryo, Ye Yuan's preparatory work was done very quickly.

  But this time, Ye Yuan's preparatory work was different from the past. He did not split the herbs into two portions.

  If Nanfeng Ruoqing were present, she would surely be greatly alarmed and asked "Could it be that you are not using the Yin-Yang Separation Flow Technique to refine Tier 3 medicinal pill?"

  Ye Yuan really did not plan on using the Yin-Yang Separation Flow Technique!

  Arriving in front of the medicinal cauldron, Ye Yuan s.u.c.k.e.d in a deep breath, and abruptly fired out a streak of fire from his finger, enveloping the medicinal embryo.

  It was precisely the Cleansing Sandal Sacred Flame!

  Ye Yuan pushed the power of the Cleansing Sandal Sacred Flame to the limits of Tier 2, but it was much better than the refining room's fire seed.

  The first step, cleansing!

  The extraction and refinement of medicinal embryo was only a crude refinement. There were still various kinds of residual dregs within the ingredients which must be cleansed completely using flames!

  The Cleansing Sandal Sacred Flame had an innate advantage at this step. Its innate attribute was cleansing!

  It was precisely so that the Cleansing Sandal Sacred Flame was one of the essence fires most adored by alchemists.

  Ye Yuan's hands danced around like phantoms while that bundle of fire danced along with Ye Yuan's hands.

  After a few short moments, Ye Yuan's hands split and pressed down.

  Only to hear a boom, the entire medicinal cauldron ignited instantly. The refinement officially began.

  "Tri-Origins Samsara Art! Begin!"

  Ye Yuan gave a soft cry. The flames in the entire cauldron instantly skyrocketed!

  At the same time, Ye Yuan's figure also vanished from its original spot, leaving behind an afterimage!

  Seeing this scene, Yuan Fei's eyes became fixated.

  Although he did not know alchemy, he was present when Ye Hang was refining pills before, and there was not such a commotion.

  Similarly refining Tier 3 medicinal pills, wasn't this commotion too big?

  With Yuan Fei's visual prowess, he could naturally see Ye Yuan's figure.

  While Ye Yuan's actions were extremely fast, virtually like going in circles around the medicinal cauldron, Yuan Fei could see clearly that Ye Yuan only paused slightly at three points surrounding the medicinal cauldron!

  And every time he stopped, he would form an extremely profound seal, striking it into the medicinal cauldron using essence energy.

  "Young Master's alchemy skills are much stronger than his father's! I really don't dare to believe it! He's only 15 years old, how on earth did he train it?" Yuan Fei was blown away.

  Chapter 235 - Dual Breakthroughs!

  Although Yuan Fei was an outsider in terms of alchemy, he still had a good knowledge of it.

  Ye Yuan's refining method was not even on the same level as Ye Hang's!

  Yuan Fei could tell that Ye Yuan only struck out seal at three points. The location where he fired out the seals, and his strength, were exactly the same as the previous time!

  Being able to ensure such outrageously exquisite skills during such high-speed movements, judging with his own abilities, Yuan Fei was certain that he simply could not do it!

  Even the Tier 3 him could not do it, but Ye Yuan did it!

  Yuan Fei felt that this sort of refinement technique, without repeatedly tempering over and over again, it was impossible to achieve!

  The problem was, Ye Yuan was only 15 years old. How did he do it?

  Furthermore, Ye Yuan's technique flowed freely like water, making him feel relaxed and refreshed in spirit. It was clearly a set of seals, but Yuan Fei felt that it was a kind of art!

  It was simply inconceivable!

  Yuan Fei was only a layman. As the saying went, professionals could see the intricacies, while laymen would watch the show. If Nanfeng Ruoqing were here, she would definitely be so shocked that she would scream!

  Or perhaps, she would enter sudden enlightenment state again and achieve a breakthrough on the Alchemy Path.

  Because the Tri-Origins Samsara Art that Ye Yuan was using currently was also wielded to the Legendary Realm!

  And the Tri-Origins Samsara Art was even more ingenious, even more complex, and even harder to train in compared to the Yin-Yang Separation Flow Technique.

  Ye Yuan gave a light cry. "Tri-Origins, congeal, pill formed! Condense for me!"

  Only to see three streaks of light converge within the medicinal cauldron at the same time, disappearing after. The initially frenzied refinement also became peaceful currently.

  "Huuu . . . Using the Tri-Origins Samsara Art now is indeed too early! However, the Heart Like Still Water Realm is indeed powerful. I can actually really support it!" Ye Yuan flopped onto the ground and sighed with admiration.

  The same as the previous time he crossed ranks to refine, Ye Yuan was so tired that he was about to collapse.

  But the difficulty of the refinement this time was incomparable to the previous time. If not for the Heart Like Still Water Realm supporting Ye Yuan, he might just have given up halfway.

  Such complicated seals, such precise technique, such a high-intensity refinement, the exhaustion on the mind was enormous.

  Ye Yuan's current divine soul realm was not yet sufficient to support him in completing this refinement. It was that Heart Like Still Water heart Realm that compensated for this inadequacy.

  "Are you alright, Young Master?" Yuan Fei asked concernedly.

  If not for him, Ye Yuan would not need to refine the Demon Crystal Pill in advance and did not need to work so hard.

  Crossing ranks to refine was impressive, but it was not something easy.

  Ye Yuan waved his hands and said, "No matter, just rest a while and I'll be fine."

  Finishing, Ye Yuan reached out and beckoned. The medicinal pill flew out from the medicinal cauldron and landed in his hands.

  "Hur hur, my efforts were not wasted. It's actually transcendent-grade again! Yuan Fei, you keep it first. In two day's time, I'll bring you into the cultivation room. You break through there."

  Ye Yuan directly threw the medicinal pill to Yuan Fei. He himself fished out a medicinal pill to consume and began to recover his condition.

  . . . . . .

  A day later, Ye Yuan brought Yuan Fei into an A-grade cultivation room and started to undergo a breakthrough.

  Yuan Fei adjusted his condition and directly consumed that transcendent-grade Demon Crystal Pill.

  Very soon, the fluctuations within the cultivation room gradually grew stronger.

  Yuan Fei was originally peak early-stage Tier 3. With the transcendent-grade Demon Crystal Pill, breaking through was a cinch.

  The breakthrough process was very smooth. Roughly half a day's time, Yuan Fei advanced to the middle-stage Tier 3!

  The first thing Yuan Fei did after breaking through was to give a deep bow to Ye Yuan.

  "Yuan Fei give thanks to Young Master!"

  Ye Yuan waved his hands and said, "No need to be courteous between us. This is what you deserve."

  Yuan Fei sighed emotionally and said, "Yuan Fei is ashamed! Back
then when I listened to Young Master's words, Yuan Fei even thought that it was a young man's wild pitch. Thinking back now, following Young Master was truly the most correct thing that Yuan Fei did in this life!"

  Although Ye Yuan convinced Yuan Fei back then, towards Ye Yuan's rampant words, Yuan Fei only believed half of it.

  He followed Ye Yuan merely to seek out that trace of hope to break through.

  In the beginning, the martial talent that Ye Yuan displayed was naturally without question.

  All the way until Ye Yuan taught Ye Hang alchemy did Yuan Fei finally rejoice over his choice.

  To be able to guide an Alchemy Grandmaster on how to refine medicinal pills, that meant that Ye Yuan at least had the strength that did not lose out to an Alchemy Grandmaster. As long as his realm reached the mark, he could naturally refine Tier 3 medicinal pills.

  Except, Yuan Fei never could have dreamt that this day would actually arrive so quickly!

  Seeing Ye Yuan personally refine a Tier 3 medicinal pill, Yuan Fei finally knew just how powerful this master he submitted to was.

  "Haha! To recognize an Essence Qi Realm martial artist as master, you also needed great resolve. Back then, I already said that you have immense luck. Your accomplishments in this life will definitely not be just Tier 4! Widen your horizons more. Tier 5, which is Taking Form, is the starting point of you demonic beasts!" Ye Yuan said with a laugh.

  Hearing these words, Yuan Fei's heart jolted.

  Honestly speaking, he did not think about Tier 5 Taking Form, even after he followed Ye Yuan! Being able to break through to Tier 4 was already the limits of his imaginations.

  Tier 5 Taking Form was too hard, way too difficult!

  One had to know that demonic beasts Tier 4 was equivalent to the amalgamation of the human race Sea Transformation Realm and Soul Sea Realm, virtually the distance of two major realms.

  In the Endless World, Tier 4 was roughly the endpoint for demonic beasts.

  But hearing the present Ye Yuan, it was just a matter of course.

  If he heard others say this kind of words in the past, he would definitely give that person a tight slap, then tell them to not reach beyond their means.
