Unrivaled Medicine God c1-2204

by Feng Yise

  They finally know now, how Ye Yuan's reputation of 'closest to Alchemy God' came about.

  Honestly speaking, when they heard this label back then, they more or less still snorted in contempt inwardly.

  In the era where Divine Dao dwindled to zero, how many exceedingly talented people did not dare to say that they could reach the Deity Realm either. What right did Ye Yuan have?

  But now, they felt that this title did not have any excessive aspects in the slightest.

  "Tch, nothing to be excited about! Looking at your expressions, it's feeling shocked by Ji Qingyun's achievement, right? It's merely 5000 over matches undefeated, that's all!"

  Just as everyone was currently immersed in shock, a very scornful voice sounded out.

  Xiao Ruyan's brows knitted and she said unhappily, "Who are you, to be so arrogant? Merely 5000 over matches? If you have the capabilities, you try consecutively winning 5000 over matches too!"

  The one speaking was a young man. Behind him even followed a Divine King powerhouse. Presumably, his background was not ordinary too.

  That young man was merely Alchemy Venerable Realm, but had a look of unruliness, looking very disdainful toward Ye Yuan's battle results on the Alchemy Emperor Proclamation.

  The young man looked towards Xiao Ruyan. A hint of astonishment flashed across his eyes, but he said with a laugh, "You guys just came to Cloudmarsh City, right? Not recognizing this young master is also excusable! You remember it, this young master is called Gu Yue! Ji Qingyun's record will be broken by me!"

  Gu Yue had an arrogant look with a kind of domineeringness that watched as masts and oars turned to dust while talking and laughing together 1 .

  Xiao Ruyan was angered until she laughed because of his haughty manner. Seen before posturing, but never saw before posturing until this manner.

  The number one achievement in 100 thousand years, this guy actually dared to brag, saying that he was going to break it. It was fine if he was an Alchemy Emperor, but he was just an Alchemy Venerable.

  "Yo, so impressive? I wonder what number your esteemed self is ranked on the Alchemy Emperor Proclamation currently?" Xiao Ruyan said with a laugh.

  Gu Yue's face turned black and said, "You know perfectly well that this young master is only Alchemy Venerable Realm at present, you did it on purpose, right? But I'm not afraid to tell you either, this young master already has over 3400 matches of consecutive victories on the Alchemy Venerable Proclamation. Latest by next year, the Alchemy Venerable Proclamation's first place will be mine!"

  Hearing Gu Yue blow his own trumpet, Xiao Ruyan was startled in her heart. Three thousand four hundred over matches of consecutive wins, this achievement was already rather impressive.

  But she still had a look of disdain on her face as she said, "Brag! Keep on bragging! Who doesn't know how to boast?"

  Gu Yue's expression changed, and he said in a solemn voice, "Who's bragging to you? Randomly find a person to inquire about it, in this Cloudmarsh City, who doesn't know me, Gu Yue! That Ji Qingyun, there will come a day where I'll trample him underfoot!"

  Xiao Ruyan became enraged the moment she heard and said angrily, "This young lady doesn't believe it! Come, come, come, this young lady is going to trample on you under her foot today! Don't you have over 3400 matches of consecutive victories? I want to see just what kind of standard your more than 3400 matches of consecutive wins is!"

  Ren Dong also silently nodded by the side and said very earnestly, "En, en, count me in!"

  The moment Gu Yue heard, he laughed.

  "Alright, but … not any random nobody can challenge me, Gu Yue! I have a condition, if you agree, this young master will accept your challenge!" Gu Yue smiled with evil-designs as he said.

  Xiao Ruyan's face turned black, and she said, "What condition?"

  Gu Yue seized Xiao Ruyan up lecherously and said, "If you lose, you have to become Dao companions with me! How's that? You got to know, in this Cloudmarsh City, the female martial artists that want to become Dao companions with me, Young Master Gu, line up over several streets!"

  Each word that Gu Yue said, Xiao Ruyan's face became a degree more sullen.

  Honestly speaking, she was still really quite nervous.

  This guy dared to say that he won over 3400 matches consecutively, it was probably not wild talk. This sort of lies, randomly finding a person could expose it. There was no meaning at all.

  To be able to have this standard, he was likely really not too easy to push around.

  Seeing Xiao Ruyan hesitate, Gu Yue became even more smug as he said, "Why, scared? Like I said, be a little low-profile if you don't have much strength. Not everyone is what you're able to challenge. But if you want to be my, Young Master Gu's Dao companion, I still welcome it very much, haha …"

  Xiao Ruyan was indeed breathtakingly beautiful. The first time Gu Yue laid eyes on her, he found her to be to his liking very much. Just as he said, ordinary women, he really held in contempt.

  "Agree with him." Right then, Ye Yuan's nonchalant voice sounded out.

  Xiao Ruyan jumped in fright. Using watery eyes to look at Ye Yuan, she said, "Master, how can you be like this?"

  Ye Yuan said smilingly, "You guys learned from me for so long. If you don't even have this bit of strength, you can find a piece of tofu to go commit suicide already." Shortened saying that is a reference to Three Kingdoms story, where Cao Cao's sh.i.p.s turned to ashes in a blaze.

  Chapter 1030 - Silent Offering

  "Master? Hahaha, you … are you all mistaken? This brat is at the very most just 30 years old. You guys actually call him your master? Hahaha, what does he have to teach you guys?"

  Hearing Xiao Ruyan's form of address towards Ye Yuan. Gu Yue laughed himself into convulsions.

  He laughed for a long time and suddenly discovered that no one went along with him, and could not help feeling very awkward.

  And he suddenly noticed that Ye Yuan's party all used strange eyes to look at him. This involuntarily made him rather angry from embarrassment.

  "What are you looking at?! Could it be that what I said was wrong?" Gu Yue said irately.

  "En, what you said was very right. Alright, since there's nothing on, the two of you have a proper match with him then," Ye Yuan said with a smile.

  ...

  "Quickly look! Gu Yue is having a pill battle with someone again! I wonder what kind of opponent he ran into this time is like? Will they give him a little trouble or not?"

  "How is that possible? Alchemy Venerable Realm, it's totally impossible for someone to be his match. Otherwise, how can he possibly win 3420 matches in a row?"

  "Makes sense! Gu Yue this brat is a little c.o.c.ky, but his strength really is formidable! Continuing to develop with this trend, he might really be able to break Ji Qingyun's record!"

  Gu Yue and Xiao Ruyan's pill battle immediately drew a large group of people's attention.

  Just as Gu Yue said, his fame in Cloudmarsh City was really huge. Having 3400 over matches of consecutive wins was also not bragging.

  Virtually every time he had a pill battle, it would be a full house.

  Gu Yue's personality enjoyed this sort of 'a myriad of stars surrounding the moon treatment' most of all.

  Xiao Ruyan was still somewhat not confident. After all, the opportunities she had to really compete with someone were too few.

  Although she knew that Ye Yuan was very incredible, she was uncertain whether she really learned the quintessence of Ye Yuan's pill refinement or not.

  When at the Crimson Afterglow Holy Land, Xiao Ruyan had once made a move to lecture a bunch of Alchemy Ancestors before. But at that time, it was just competing in fire control.

  While pill battles were a one-time comprehensive test towards alchemy skills. It was completely different from controlling fire.

  Furthermore, her opponent was also so powerful!

  Gu Yue saw through Xiao Ruyan's uncertainty and said smilingly, "Beauty, don't need to worry. Becoming Dao comp
anions with me, I'll impart to you the quintessence of alchemy skills."

  Xiao Ruyan's face turned black, and she said in a solemn voice, "Don't come out and make a spectacle of yourself with your middling skills! When this young lady beats you down, you'll kneel and beg me to take you in as a disciple then!"

  The agreement between them, if Gu Yue won, Xiao Ruyan would become Dao companions with him. If Xiao Ruyan won, Gu Yue would kneel and call out master three times.

  Cloudmarsh City's pill battles were hosted by the City Lord Manor. The pill battles between Alchemy Venerables would be presided over by initial-rank Alchemy Emperors.

  An Alchemy Emperor came onto the stage and slowly said, "According to the two of your agreement, the medicinal pill that your pill battle chose is the Emerald Sea Truewater Pill. This pill is a water-attribute high-grade Tier 8 medicinal pill. The one with the better grade wins. Begin now!"

  This Emerald Sea Truewater Pill's refining difficulty was rather high. Ordinary Alchemy Venerable experts could not refine it at all. But to Gu Yue, this was not too difficult of a matter.

  With his strength, refining the Emerald Sea Truewater Pill, there was an 80% assurance to refine a high-grade one.

  If his luck was good, he could even refine a transcendent grade!

  While Xiao Ruyan was merely middle-rank Alchemy Venerable. Even if her strength was any more heaven-defying, being able to refine a complete medicinal pill was already pretty good.

  This pill battle was a competition that was impossible to lose to Gu Yue.

  He had the intention of showing off as well. After extracting and refining the medicinal embryo, Gu Yue separated his two palms. One hand brought out a fire dragon while the other hand brought out a fire tiger.

  A dragon and tiger began raising the temperature of the medicinal cauldron under his guidance.

  "Tiger Crouching, Dragon Coiling! This is an extremely profound fire-controlling art! Gu Yue actually used it effortlessly! His 3000 over matches of consecutive victories were indeed not by a fluke!"

  "You look at that lass, what fire-controlling art is that? Hahaha, does she think that she's lighting a fire to cook a meal? That sort of inferior fire-controlling art, she's sure that it can refine medicinal pills?"

  But the two people who entered a pill refining state already could not hear the comments of outsiders.

  One should not look at how Gu Yue was haughty. His alchemy skills were absolutely not undeserved reputation. Ordinary alchemy venerables were really not enough to look at.

  When Ao Qian saw Xiao Ruyan's level of fire-controlling art, he also could not quite look on anymore and could not resist saying, "Milord, Ruyan that little lass looks like she's still rather nervous. This kind of fire-controlling skill, how can it win the other party? Milord, although your Alchemy Dao is godlike, she's not you after all!"

  But Ye Yuan said without a care, "Old Ao, no need to be anxious. Keep watching, and you'll know. Ruyan this lass can still keep her cool at crucial moments."

  Ao Qian and the rest could not help being speechless. Already nervous until she could not control fire, she could still keep her cool?

  Which eye saw through that she was keeping her cool?

  Right at this time, waves of exclamations suddenly emitted from the crowd.

  "Quickly look at that lass's medicinal cauldron! This … How is this possible?"

  "Glittering and crystal clear! The medicinal cauldron actually became glittering and crystal clear!

  "This … The fire-controlling art that this lass used, could it be that legendary Silent Offering? This was the fire-controlling art that Lord Qingyun Zi used when competing in alchemy back then!"

  "Back then, Lord Qingyunzi relied on this extremely unsightly fire-controlling art and astounded countless people, making countless geniuses yield in admiration! Didn't think that after a time interval of 300 years, this Silent Offering fire-controlling art actually appeared once more!"

  For the sake of impartiality, the medicinal cauldrons that both parties used were only the most ordinary Tier 8 medicinal cauldrons.

  The requirements that this kind of ordinary Tier 8 medicinal cauldrons had towards fire-controlling art was exceedingly high.

  A moment of carelessness would affect the whole medicinal pill's refinement.

  While at this time, Xiao Ruyan's medicinal cauldron became glittering and crystal clear, akin to a glazed tile. This was the sign of receiving extremely uniform heat distribution.

  Only when the fire-controlling art reached an exceedingly high level could one affect the medicinal cauldron to such an extent.

  But just earlier, everyone was still mocking Xiao Ruyan's fire control like it was starting a fire to cook a meal.

  Such a scene was extremely similar to 300 years ago.

  Only when everyone came back to their senses did they recall the scene of Lord Qingyun Zi rampaging in all four directions in Cloudmarsh City 300 years ago.

  The fire-controlling art was precisely Silent Offering.

  Just as everyone had their breath taken away, Ye Yuan shook his head and said, "Still lacking some skill level. Just barely managed to smelt the medicinal cauldron to become glittering and crystal clear. Looks like the pill refinement this time is also just superior-grade. Ren Dong, when your senior apprentice sister comes back, tell her that Silent Offering still needs to practice an additional 50 thousand times."

  Ren Dong's expression was calm as he said with a nod, "Yes, Master!"

  Ao Qian and the rest exchanged glances, thinking to themselves that this master was also a little too terrifying, right?

  You were the number one person in 100 thousand years, but others were not! This already aroused everybody's cries of exclamation, but you made her practice an additional 50 thousand times when she comes back …

  Was there teaching disciples like this?

  But in reality, Ye Yuan taught disciples just like this!

  In Ye Yuan's view, refining pills never had shortcuts to talk about. Without millions upon millions of repetitive dreary training, it was completely impossible to truly attain a higher level.

  Don't look at how Xiao Ruyan and Ren Dong normally behaved in a cheeky and boisterous manner.

  The hardsh.i.p.s that they suffered in these dozen over years, only Ye Yuan himself knew.

  Chapter 1031 - Kowtow and Acknowledge as Master Then

  Next, entering the pill refining process, the two people each had their nerves wound up tightly.

  The Emerald Sea Truewater Pill was not the average high-grade Tier 8 medicinal pill. It did not allow for them to have the slightest bit of carelessness.

  But Gu Yue's refining method was the same as his personality, very high-profile. While Xiao Ruyan's refinement was methodically and unhurried.

  Of course, this did not mean that Gu Yue was flashy without substance.

  In truth, his alchemy skills were indeed very consummate. His Six Unity Heavenly Desolation Art was displayed flawlessly and actually already reached the realm of major accomplishment!

  In contrast, Xiao Ruyan's was a notch weaker in technique again. What she used was the Five Elements Heavenly Word Art.

  Not all alchemists could train refinement techniques to the level of the Eight-Diagrams Wandering Dragon Secret Art.

  To Alchemy Venerables, being able to cultivate the Six Unity Heavenly Desolation Art was already very impressive.

  As for Xiao Ruyan, she still had not trained in the Six Unity Heavenly Desolation Art at present.

  "Sigh, fire-controlling technique is just an aspect of refining pills. It was startling just now, but this match, it's probably still Gu Yue who wins."

  "Yeah. This boy's strength is too formidable! At a young age, he's able to cultivate the Six Unity Heavenly Desolation Art to the realm of major accomplishment. In the same realm, how many people are his match?"

  "That girl's age is much younger than his. But her strength is indeed formidable too. It's just a pity that who she ran into was Gu Yue.
"

  The surrounding alchemists were all people with rich experiences. They could practically discern the difference in superiority with one glance.

  The sturdiness of Gu Yue's foundation made many of the older generations all sweat profusely with embarrassment.

  It was true that Xiao Ruyan was formidable, but she was still a little young in the end.

  Ao Qian opened his mouth and was just about to say something. But seeing Ye Yuan's relaxed expression, the words that reached the tip of his tongue was forced back down.

  Ye Yuan said smilingly, "You guys don't need to worry. This has only just begun! It doesn't mean that the refining technique being high-level, the medicinal pills refined will definitely be good."

  Ao Qian was left speechless. He knew that Ye Yuan would say it like that.

  But along with the progress of the refinement, Xiao Ruyan actually gradually entered an optimal state. The movements of her hands became faster and faster, and increasingly natural and smooth.

  The many alchemists observing the battle by the side actually became rather infatuated from watching.

  "Hiss … Legendary Realm! This lass actually cultivated the Five Elements Heavenly Word Art to the Legendary Realm!" someone cried out in shock among the crowd.

  The gaze of that Alchemy Emperor expert presiding over the pill battle also became intent. He finally detected Xiao Ruyan's transformation.

  Regardless of what level of refinement technique, wanting to cultivate to the great circle of perfection was easy. But wanting to cultivate to the Legendary Realm was even harder than ascending to the heavens!

  Furthermore, along with the increase in cultivation realm, after people had the ability to cultivate high-level refinement techniques, there would also not be anyone who would expend huge amounts of energy to go cultivate the Legendary Realm that could not be touched at all.

  However, Xiao Ruyan did it!

  Ao Qian finally heaved a sigh in relief when he saw Xiao Ruyan's state. But his gaze looked towards Ye Yuan with endless shock.

  The master was monstrous, the disciples taught were actually so freakish too!
