Unrivaled Medicine God c1-2204

by Feng Yise

"Young Master Ye Yuan, the Cao Family's Third Young Master is here."

  "En. Let him come in then. Call Grand Elder Skymaple over too," Ye Yuan casually instructed.

  Cao Fang came before Ye Yuan with a nasty look. He never could have thought that Ye Yuan would actually address Master Wu Xuan with such great familiarity.

  Wu Fang City was an Alchemy Sovereign expert. His status in Wu Fang City carried weight.

  He himself always observed a pupil's manners in front of Wu Xuan, but Ye Yuan could already address him like brothers.

  "Ye . . . Ye Yuan, yesterday . . . yesterday's matters, it was my wrong! Please . . . Please forgive me!" Cao Fang contorted his face and stammered as he said to Ye Yuan.

  Ye Yuan shot him a glance and said indifferently, "You didn't do anything to me. Whether I forgive or not doesn't matter. As long as Grand Elder Skymaple can forgive you, I have nothing to say."

  Every injustice had its perpetrator, every debt its debtor. Ye Yuan was not a petty person. He only wanted to get justice on Skymaple's behalf.

  If Skymaple really suffered some serious injuries, Ye Yuan naturally would not let Cao Fang off easily. But Skymaple only suffered some hardsh.i.p.s yesterday and did not receive any substantial wounds. Since Cao Fang paid a visit to apologize, this matter was also considered to have passed.

  Of course, it was also Ye Yuan reaching there in a timely manner. Or else, if he were too late, what would have happened was really hard to say.

  While talking, Skymaple just happened to be called out too.

  "The main guy is here. Whether he forgives you or not will depend on your sincerity," Ye Yuan said coolly.

  Hearing Ye Yuan's words, Skymaple immediately understood what was going on. He could not help looking at Ye Yuan in surprise.

  A colossal giant like the Cao Family would actually apologize to a little Alchemy King like him! This had to be said to be immense face for Skymaple.

  Cao Fang gritted his teeth and lowered his head as he bowed towards Skymaple. He said, "Cao Fang was impulsive yesterday and offended Elder Skymaple. Elder, please don't blame."

  As he said, Cao Fang held a storage ring in his palm and said, "Inside this storage ring are 100 thousand high-grade essence crystals and also some healing medicinal pills. Cao Fang hopes to compensate for the mistake made yesterday."

  Skymaple looked at Ye Yuan. He saw Ye Yuan nodded slightly. Skymaple then said, "Forget it, forget it; this matter is over."

  Cao Fang was overjoyed when he heard that and could not help turning his head to look at Ye Yuan.

  Ye Yuan took over the storage ring from Cao Fang's hands and said, "Third Young Master Cao, don't blame me for shooting my mouth. People like Mao Yuanji, you'd best hang out with them less. Otherwise, there will come a day where you'll suffer a huge loss."

  Cao Fang nodded repeatedly and was just about to withdraw, but he saw Ren Dong dash inside like a gust of wind.

  "Master! I did it, Master!" Ren Dong's person had yet to arrive, and his voice reached already.

  While talking, Ren Dong already came before Ye Yuan and said with an excited look, "Master, I did it! I did it! Now, you can take me in as a disciple, right?"

  Cao Fang could not help jumping in fright when he heard Ren Dong's words, "What? You . . . You want to acknowledge him as your master?"

  When Ren Dong heard that, he was stunned too, "Mm? Cao Fang, why are you here too?"

  "I . . ."

  Cao Fang had yet to speak when Ren Dong's expression changed as he said, "You aren't trying to acknowledge Ye Yuan as your master too, right? You're not allowed to vie for Master with me! Humph, I'm telling you, even if Master agrees to take you in, I'm also your senior!"

  Cao Fang was thrown in confusion by Ren Dong. Even his brain was somewhat short-circuited.

  Ren Dong's strength was even greater than his, and he even had a peak Alchemy Sovereign grandfather. He actually wanted to acknowledge Ye Yuan as master?

  Ye Yuan scolded with a smile when he heard that, "What nonsense is this? Cao Fang came to find me for other matters. You said that you can do it but seeing is believing. However, this Feng Ya Pavilion doesn't seem to have pill refining rooms. Elder Brother Wu Xuan, is it fine to borrow your pill refining room to use?"

  Wu Xuan was also secretly alarmed by the side. A few days ago, Ren Dong was still at loggerheads with Ye Yuan. Now, he actually wanted to acknowledge him as his master.

  Wu Xuan's thinking was around the same as Cao Fang's. Although Ye Yuan's talent seemed to be very monstrous, Ren Dong had a peak Alchemy Sovereign grandfather behind him. Could it be that he still needed to acknowledge other people as his master?"

  Hearing Ye Yuan's request, Wu Xuan nodded and said, "No problem."

  Wu Xuan was also very curious how Ye Yuan was going to test Ren Dong.

  Chapter 517 - Establishing Rules

  Inside Wu Xuan's pill refining room, it was already packed with people currently.

  When Xiao Ruyan heard that Ye Yuan was going to test Ren Dong, she was full of reluctance but insisted on following over no matter what.

  Meanwhile, Cao Fang was also very curious, following over at the behest of supernatural power, causing him unable to resist.

  Ye Yuan naturally noticed it but did not say anything either.

  When Wu Xuan saw the materials Ren Dong picked, he could not help being stupefied. He said, "Younger Brother Ye, why did he choose all Tier 1 medicinal herbs? Isn't the threshold of your acceptance test too low?

  Ye Yuan said with a smile, "Elder Brother, you watch first. You'll know in a while. This Ren Dong still has some comprehension abilities. To think that he could achieve it so quickly. Looking at how both of his eyes are bloodshot, presumably, he didn't even shut his eyes these few days."

  How could the acceptance test that Ye Yuan set up be achieved so easily?

  Even for the lowest level Lesser Phaseless Art, wanting to reach the standards of refining transcendent-grade Tier 1 medicinal pills, those with slightly better talent also needed around half a month's time of bitter training. Those with poorer natural endowments might not even find the knack to refining at all.

  Just as Ye Yuan predicted, Ren Dong did not rest for a single second these few days. From morning to night, he was immersed in the pill refining room, for the sake of completing the acceptance test as soon as possible.

  Furthermore, for this Lesser Phaseless Art to reach the level of refining transcendent-grade medicinal pills, it was not achievable with just bitter training as well.

  If there were not Ye Yuan's demonstration, Ren Dong could not possibly find the trick to it so quickly either. He had been recalling the scenario of Ye Yuan refining pills bare-handedly these few days, contrasting it continuously. That was why he could understand the secret so quickly.

  It was just because the Lesser Phaseless Art was too simple and practically did not have much skill content; that was why Ren Dong could reach such standard in a few days.

  But for Ren Dong to be able to reach this level, it also showed that his talent surpassed others.

  In Ye Yuan's perspective, Ren Dong's alchemy talent should be even higher than Xiao Ruyan's.

  Everyone all looked at Ren Dong very curiously, wanting to see just what of thing this acceptance test was.

  Although Ren Dong was very tired, he was currently in a state of extreme stimulation.

  Ye Yuan opened a window for him, letting him see a great path linking to the heaven. To alchemists, there was nothing more exciting than this.

  All the preparations were in place. Ren Dong said to Ye Yuan with an excited face, "Master, watch closely!"

  When Ren Dong made his move, everybody could not help staring wide-eyed.

  "Lesser Phaseless Art? Younger Brother, what kind of medicine are you selling in your gourd here?" Wu Xuan was completely baffled.

  Using the Lesser Phaseless Art as the acceptance test. How low was this threshold?!

  Even Alchemy Grandmasters when taking disciples could not pos
sibly use this as the evaluation too.

  "Huhu, Elder Brother carry on watching. This boy is quite interesting," Ye Yuan said as he behaved like a senior.

  It was naturally quite interesting. Ren Dong only used three days and actually touched upon the threshold of the Legendary Realm. Looks like his conditions were really decent.

  The Legendary Realm was only normal to Ye Yuan.

  But to others, it was not something that simple.

  Furthermore, it was simply not possible for there to be people who would devote time and energy into the Lesser Phaseless Art to reach the Legendary Realm.

  Any refining technique would have very impressive effects after reaching the Legendary Realm. The Lesser Phaseless Art was no exception either.

  Of course, that effect was only aimed at Tier 1 medicinal pills.

  Cao Fang looked at Ren Dong with a face full of contempt.

  This fellow's brain isn't spoiled, right? That Ye Yuan is clearly fooling him. He actually took it seriously! A Quasi-Alchemy King acknowledging another Quasi-Alchemy King as his master. Hehe, really comedic enough! Cao Fang was criticizing Ren Dong incessantly in his heart.

  Cao Fang did not doubt Ye Yuan's alchemy standards. Because his performance in front of the Thousand Query Wall already indicated everything.

  At least, Ye Yuan's theoretical standards were pretty high.

  Making disciple acceptance test Tier 1 medicinal pills and Tier 1 alchemy techniques, what was this if not being a joke?

  Refinement of Tier 1 medicinal pills did not take too much time. Ren Dong finished refining very quickly.

  "Condense!"

  Ren Dong gave a light cry. The medicinal pill was done.

  "Hehe, master, you come and evaluate it?" Ren Dong came in front of Ye Yuan and said fawningly.

  Ye Yuan nodded with a smile and said, "Not too bad. But the Lesser Phaseless Art is just an entry-level alchemy skill. There are still many areas that you need to learn. Next, your task is to use the Greater Phaseless Art to refine a transcendent-grade medicinal pill."

  "Ah? G-Greater Phaseless Art?" Ren Dong still did not come around for a moment.

  But Xiao Ruyan could not carry on watching by the side silently. She reproached Ren Dong daintily, "You dunce-head! Still not hurrying over to acknowledge Master?!"

  Ren Dong came to a realization. His face revealed wild elation as he kneeled on the ground with a thud. He exclaimed, "Master is high above. Please accept a bow from Disciple!"

  "Get up. In the future, Ruyan is your senior apprentice sister. I don't have many rules under me. But there are several points that you have to remember," Ye Yuan said coolly.

  "Master, please say!"

  Ye Yuan nodded and said, "Mustn't defy orders and be unfilial! Mustn't commit crimes in violation of the law! Other things, free rein. If I discover that you all did something that goes against the heaven and reason, I'll personally cripple you guys! Ruyan, same for you too!"

  "Yes, Master! Disciple will definitely bear it in mind!" Ren Dong hurriedly said.

  "Disciple understands!" Xiao Ruyan also did not dare to have a cheeky smile when she saw how solemn Ye Yuan said it.

  Being around Ye Yuan for a long time, Xiao Ruyan more or less also grasped Ye Yuan's disposition a little clearer.

  Majority of the time, it was fine no matter how she joked around. But once Ye Yuan became serious, then it was not that fun anymore.

  However, Xiao Ruyan did not have much evil thoughts in her heart. Such rules were actually dispensable to her. She did not take it to heart too much either.

  "Younger Brother Ye, you were saying earlier . . . using the Lesser Phaseless Art to refine transcendent-grade medicinal pills?" It was only after seeing that they finished acknowledging master-disciple relationship did Wu Xuan ask Ye Yuan in amazement.

  "That's right. This was the entry test that I gave Ren Dong," Ye Yuan said smilingly.

  "Hiss . . . Let me take a look."

  Wu Xuan opened the medicinal cauldron and took out that medicinal pill. It was indeed transcendent-grade without a sham.

  "Using Lesser Phaseless Art can actually refine transcendent-grade medicinal pills! Except . . . what use does this have?" Wu Xuan asked puzzledly.

  Transcendent-grade Tier 1 medicinal pills could be refined using high tier alchemy skills too. There wasn't anything impressive.

  Although using Lesser Phaseless Art to refine transcendent-grade medicinal pills exceeded Wu Xuan's expectations, in his view here, it was pointless.

  With so much time to research a Tier 1 alchemy skill, why not spent the time on higher tier alchemy skills?

  Cao Fang was also very disdainful inwardly. It was just that he did not dare to make a sound. Hearing Wu Xuan question at this time, he perked his ears up too, wanting to hear how Ye Yuan was going to explain.

  Ye Yuan said with a smile, "One will never achieve their goals without doing things one step at a time. This lineage of mine, what it attaches the highest importance to isn't garish alchemy skills, but it is laying a solid foundation! Don't look down on Tier 1, Tier 2 alchemy skills. Even high tier alchemy skills were born from these low tier alchemy skills too. Researching low tier alchemy skills thoroughly, then cultivating high tier alchemy skills, will have the effect of half the effort and twice the results."

  Wu Xuan shook his head and said, "It just that this way, it will expend huge effort. The loss outweighs the gain!"

  Ye Yuan did not answer Wu Xuan's words, but he asked Ren Dong, "Do you feel that the loss outweighs the gain?"

  Ren Dong shook his head very affirmatively and said, "Absolutely not!"

  Chapter 518 - Meeting Begins

  Ren Dong was not s.u.c.k.i.n.g up.

  When he trained the Lesser Phaseless Art close to the Legendary Realm, he actually discovered that he had many new comprehensions.

  Back then, when he had just come into contact with alchemy, he had many things that he did not notice.

  All the way until today where it suddenly dawned upon him. he discovered just how unstable his own foundation was.

  Ye Yuan being able to freely refine transcendent-grade medicinal pills was indeed not coincidental.

  Recalling the words that Ye Yuan said when he was acknowledging him as his master, Ren Dong only came to realize the truth now.

  Ren Dong believed that as long as he continued walking down the path which Ye Yuan designated, he would definitely discover a new continent.

  Of course, to most people, doing this was a pointless effort. Because they did not have a master like Ye Yuan.

  Without Ye Yuan's personal demonstration, Ren Dong could not possibly have touched upon the threshold of the Legendary Realm too.

  The Lesser Phaseless Art was just the most basic entry-level refining technique. The higher the tier of the refining technique, the more challenging it naturally was to want to reach this step as well.

  Without the guidance of a great teacher who had a profound understanding, they might never find where the Legendary Realm was throughout their lives.

  Cao Fang curled his mouth. He was clearly very condescending towards Ren Dong's excuse.

  Wu Xuan knew that it was not that there weren't people who wanted to train the basic alchemy skills to an extremely high realm. But without any exception, they all took too many detours.

  Those alchemists who were originally around the same realm as them had flung those people who researched alchemy skills that way several streets behind.

  Wu Xuan initially wanted to persuade Ye Yuan a little. But upon recalling Ye Yuan's performance, he swallowed the words at this throat back down.

  Ye Yuan this Alchemy Emperor naturally had more authority to speak regarding laying down a foundation or speed-walking this sort of issue.

  He knew that Wu Xuan and the rest all did not believe. But the moment when Ren Dong soared to the skies in a single leap, they would surely have a completely new appraisal of this matter.

  With Ren Dong's talent, this day might n
ot need too long.

  . . . . . .

  The following two days, Ren Dong practically immersed in studying beside Ye Yuan, while Ye Yuan did not hide anything either. He demonstrated the Greater Phaseless Art's Legendary Realm once for Ren Dong to see.

  Ren Dong's talent was indeed remarkable. He actually comprehended some knack to it very quickly.

  But, very clearly, the speed of him comprehending the Greater Phaseless Art was no longer as quick as the Lesser Phaseless Art.

  And right at this time, all the titans in the Northern Domain finally gathered at Wu Fang City. The Endless Meet officially convened in the City Lord Manor.

  In the main hall, all seats were occupied, and those people who were seated, the weakest had middle-stage Divine Traversing Realm strength.

  Four seats were arranged on the left-hand most side. Sitting there were respectively Ren Xingchun and the Three Sects' old ancestors.

  They were evidently the Northern Domain's pinnacle existences!

  And sitting to their right were not those late-stage Divine Traversing Realm experts but an unknown Sea Transformation Realm youth.

  This youth was naturally Ye Yuan.

  The big shots present, quite a few people brought the juniors that they were most proud of over. It was just that those juniors all stood behind them with their hands by the sides.

  Very clearly, in such an apex meeting they did not have a chance to speak.

  Even Qin Yan, Guo Taoqun, and Yin Yanhua were all by the side too.

  Only Ye Yuan this young person sat very conspicuous.

  Many people had not met nor heard of Ye Yuan before either. Him sitting naturally incurred many interested gazes.

  Regarding this kind of focused looks, Ye Yuan was very calm.

  The previous life's Ji Qingyun had experienced countless great spectacles. Such a small occasion was simply too substandard to show in public.

  Everyone got in their seats. Ning Yixian was the first to speak. "Everyone, time is tight. This Ning won't blabber any more nonsense either. Today, we convened everybody to discuss the major issue of how to respond to the Fierce Gale World's invasion. Several thousand years ago, the Endless World had the Grand Yan True Sect this extraordinarily powerful sect to seal the realm passageway. But now, not that this Ning is belittling our capabilities, but we might not be the Grand Yan True Sect's match even by combining our Three Sects' power! Hence . . . our situation has already reached an extremely grim state! And the most terrifying thing is that we know absolutely nothing about the Fierce Gale World! Their strength, their plans, their habits, we don't understand anything at all! Now, everybody state their views."
