No matter what, he had to let Fatty Xie restore his divine sea and cultivate anew!
But Ye Yuan also knew that this was not something that could be done overnight.
The study of Alchemy Dao required acc.u.mulated practice and research. The higher the grade of the divine pill, the harder to comprehend, let alone talk about developing new medicinal pills.
Half a year was about to pass in a twinkle. The matter of Ka Xin being killed by Ye Yuan had long faded away already.
But now, the title of Capone Capital City's number one Fiend Apothecary rose in the capital city.
Every day, the martial artists who surrounded the Fiend Medicine Hall's front door to request for pills lined up like a long dragon.
The fiend general powerhouses in Capone Capital City all took pride in getting one of Master Source Night's medicinal pills.
The medicinal pills that Ye Yuan refined were hiked to an extremely high price in the black market.
It was inevitable. The medicinal pills that Ye Yuan refined, the quality was high, and the medicinal effect was strong. Others could not compare to Ye Yuan's pills at all.
However, through this half a year of training, Ye Yuan corrected all the bad habits of Meng Qi and the others. This made their pill refining standard improve greatly.
The five elders were all shedding tears of gratitude.
On this day, Meng Qi approached Ye Yuan and said carefully, "Master Source Night, our Long Ping Capital City, Blackjade Capital City, and Purple Nether Capital City's Fiend Medicine Halls' associates heard that Master's alchemy standard is extremely high and came attracted by your fame, hoping to listen to master preach on Dao. Wonder what is Master's opinion?"
Ye Yuan's eyes narrowed slightly and he said indifferently, "Did you all listen too much and feel that my preaching isn't worth money? Anyone can come and listen?"
Meng Qi's heart thumped and he hurriedly said, "This … Master's words are too serious! Master's preaching, every phrase is a gem, causing us to be enlightened at once. How could it be something cheap?"
Ye Yuan said coolly, "The reason why I stay here is that I owe your Blood Yama Hall a favor, not because I have nothing better to do. As for the other capital cities' Blood Yama Halls, I'm not acquainted with them, and I don't want to be acquainted as well. Let them go back where they came from!"
Meng Qi had an awkward look and withdrew helplessly.
After Meng Qi went out, Ye Yuan gave a cold snicker.
Did the Blood Yama Hall really take him to be a free labor force?
Not hemorrhaging any blood at all and wanted him to preach on Dao for them. Dreaming too beautifully.
Regarding those people coming to listen to the sermons, Ye Yuan did not have objections.
But they must repay it with a favor!
In this half a year, although Ye Yuan borrowed the Fiend Medicine Hall, this platform, his alchemy strength improved a lot.
But what the Fiend Medicine Hall obtained from here far exceeded what they paid.
Disregarding others, it was still very promising for the five elders to step into the realm of Three-star Fiend Apothecary in the future under his guidance.
Just this alone was already above their money's worth.
Chapter 1503 - Congratulations, You've Already Been Blacklisted
After leaving Ye Yuan, Meng Qi had a bitter smile on his face.
He knew that it would be this result.
It was just that the hall master made him come over. So he had no choice as well. He could only come and give it a try.
The Fiend Medicine Hall underwent an earth-shaking transformation under Ye Yuan's hands in this half a year.
Recently, these few days, Meng Qi faintly felt his realm that had yet to loosen for a long time actually have signs of going to break through.
This discovery made him extremely agitated.
Meng Qi had already stopped at this realm for 10 thousand years.
He knew that he had long exhausted his potential and that there was basically no hope of breaking through in this lifetime.
But now, he actually had hopes of breaking through to the legendary Three-star Fiend Apothecary. How could this result not make him wildly ecstatic?
But Meng Qi knew, for him to be able to break through, it was entirely Ye Yuan's credit.
In this half a year, Ye Yuan opened another window for them, letting him see a whole new world.
The few little tricks that Ye Yuan imparted to them could be said to have polish up their alchemy skill, making their strength advance by leaps and bounds.
Meng Qi refining the Devil Dragon Flame Crystal Pill currently was basically all middle-grade as the start. There was a very large chance of being able to refine high-grade.
To be able to have this kind of improvement in half a year, it could simply be described using riding a rocket.
If it were before, Meng Qi never dared to think that he could still have such rapid improvement in alchemy!
He knew that the other four elders also obtained varying degrees of improvement.
And all this was all thanks to Master Source Night!
Meng Qi even knew that the hall master's improvement in this half a year was similarly very great. He already flung the other two Three-star Fiend Apothecaries in the city far behind.
The current Ye Yuan was already revered by them akin to a god!
The Fiend Medicine Hall's change was so great, but Ye Yuan never opened his mouth to ask for anything before.
Even with him being present and refining pills, it was the customers that prepared the required spirit medicines themselves for refinement. The Fiend Medicine Hall did not need to do much.
It was the Fiend Medicine Hall that owed Ye Yuan greatly.
Now, the other capital cities' people are coming to seek experience. This was clearly the interaction between the upper echelons.
The Blood Yama Hall treated Master Source Night as someone that could be squeezed dry. It would be weird if he was happy.
Kong Xiao was Blackjade Capital City's Fiend Medicine Hall's hall master. Regarding upstairs making him bring people over to listen to people preach on Dao, he was actually very disdainful in his heart.
Fiend Apothecaries were all proud. He, a Three-star Fiend Apothecary, how venerated was his status? Ordinary Fiend Apothecaries, he did not pay any attention to them at all.
His alchemy strength was also a first-rate existence among the hall masters in the nearby few capital cities.
What made him even more gloomy was that he heard that this Fiend Apothecary preaching on Dao was actually just a Two-star Fiend Apothecary.
How to make him accept this?
"Yi Mo, this master has such airs. Even you, a hall master, can't invite him?" Kong Xiao said unhappily.
A Fiend Medicine Hall's hall master wanting to meet a Two-star Fiend Apothecary actually still had to pass on a message. Wasn't this a joke?
Yi Mo was Capone Fiend Medicine Hall's hall master. Out of fear of losing face, that was why he made Meng Qi go and invite Ye Yuan.
Actually, he also knew that Ye Yuan most likely would not agree to meet these people.
"Kong Xiao, this place isn't the Blackjade Capital City. If you don't care about it, you can immediately leave, I didn't invite you to come!" Yi Mo said with a dark expression.
The moment Kong Xiao heard, he was delighted and said with a smile, "Yo, became courageous huh?! If not for my hall master asking me to come, do you think I'll come to this lousy place? What master still, pooh! A Two-star brat also dares to come out and show off! It's just your lousy standards that you call anybody your master when you see them, right?"
Capone Capital City's Fiend Medicine Hall was indeed ranked near the bottom of the few capital cities in the vicinity.
From numbers to strength, they were all far inferior to the other few cities.
Hence, when Kong Xiao saw Yi Mo, he had his head held high, not taking the latter seriously at all.
Yi
Mo was livid with rage and said, "Good! Very good! Since you don't care for Master Source Night's preaching the Dao, then please go back!"
Kong Xiao was just about to speak when Meng Qi came out from inside and said to Yi Mo with a bow, "Hall Master, Master Source Night said, let them go back where they came from!"
The two people's conversation just now, Meng Qi heard all of it.
He originally wanted to say it a little tactfully. Now, he did not give face at all, directly reiterating Ye Yuan's words as it was.
When Kong Xiao heard this, he directly lost it and said furiously, "Ha, what high-sounding sentiments! A measly little Two-star Fiend Apothecary actually dares to speak to this hall master this way! I'll go and meet your hall master straight away. I want to see what she says! Wu Hao, Metalheart, they are kneading us here. Let's go find their hall master together then!"
Wu Hao and Metalheart were respectively Long Ping Capital City and Purple Nether Capital City's Fiend Medicine Hall's hall masters.
When Kong Xiao said finish, he turned around and was about to leave.
But walking a few steps, he discovered that Wu Hao duo did not follow after.
He could not help stopping and said with a frown, "Didn't the two of you hear? They are having us go back to where we came from? You guys still want to drag out your stay here to look at people's countenance?"
But Wu Hao chuckled and said, "You leave then. Our Long Ping Capital City came over harboring the attitude of learning. How can we sweep away the host's face? Since he's a master, he naturally has his pride. We should bring out some sincerity."
Metalheart also smiled and said, "Why not Brother Kong Xiao go and find Lord Hall Master? Perhaps we'll be able to meet Master Source Night."
Kong Xiao's brows furrowed, countless question marks flashing across in his heart.
What was with these two people?
He knew that these two people also looked down on the Capone Fiend Medicine Hall.
When they just entered the city, the three of them even met up and discussed together that they could not let Yi Mo become intoxicated by success, and had to extinguish their prestige properly.
Why did their attitudes have a 180-degree major change now?
There must be something that he did not know in-between this!
His face fell and he said, "The two of you, what's the meaning of this?"
Wu Hao smiled and said, "No meaning. We came to Capone Capital City without paying heed to the distance. We naturally have to have an exchange with Brother Yi Mo more. Brother Yi Mo, this Wu had some queries recently, let's … explore it?"
Yi Mo had yet to speak when Metalheart also smiled and said, "Brother Yi Mo, I brought quite a few people this time. We're brothers, so we need to interact more!"
Yi Mo was confused, but one could not reach their hands out to hit a smiling face. He clasped his hands and said with a smile, "That is, of course!"
Kong Xiao's eyes narrowed slightly and he gave a cold snort as he said, "Humph! I don't believe that a Two-star Fiend Apothecary can actually defy the heavens? He's not meeting us, right? I'll make him crawl over to see me!"
Done talking, Kong Xiao was just about to flick his sleeves and leave.
Right at this time, Ye Yuan slowly walked out and just happened to hear this sentence. He said with a smile, "Is that so? Then congratulations to you, you've already been blacklisted and can head back home."
Kong Xiao suddenly turned around and said in a cold voice, "You're that whatever bullshit master? Heh, I was wondering who it was, turns out that it's a brat still wet behind his ears! Yi Mo, you all are really declining with the passing of time! Kid, you rest assured. I'll head back home. But you need to be on your knees and give me three kowtows first!"
But Ye Yuan did not even bother with him and said to Yi Mo, "Hall Master Yi Mo, this recent half a month, I want to return to the Fan Family for closed-seclusion. This half a month, don't send people to come and find me."
Finished talking, he did not wait for Yi Mo to answer either, directly walking past from Kong Xiao's side and left the Fiend Medicine Hall.
Chapter 1504 - Redeeming Favor
Pfft!
A cloud of green smoke emerged from the medicinal cauldron. The medicinal pill inside already became a scrap pill.
Ye Yuan sighed slightly and said, "Failed again! Could it be that this medicinal pill to restore the divine sea really can't be refined?"
In order to refine the medicinal pill to help Xie Jingyi recover his divine sea, this half a year, Ye Yuan had already failed no idea how many times.
He attempted no less than one thousand over ways of combining spirit medicine, but he never succeeded even once.
These one thousand over kinds of combination methods were just the results that he derived in the end.
There were at least several tens of thousands of pill formulas derived in his mind.
It was just that in the end, a vast majority of them was rejected by him.
In order to derive this brand new pill formula, Ye Yuan could be said to have cudgeled his brain.
However, the result made him very disappointed.
"You've already done your best. Even though Alchemy Gods are Deity Realm powerhouses, they don't dictate all life on earth too. There are times when human strength would not do. You don't have to be discouraged either. A medicinal pill to repair the divine sea had never been heard of in the Heavenspan World. It's easier said than done for you to want to develop it yourself." Dustless' figure appeared and consoled him.
Ye Yuan smiled and said, "I'm not discouraged. In fact, through this half a year of deducing experiments, I feel that I'm already very close to it! It's just that, this layer of windowpane paper can't be poked through from start to end, making me somewhat depressed. I have a feeling that as long as I poke through this layer of windowpane paper, my alchemy strength will advance a step further!"
Dustless looked at Ye Yuan in surprise, as if he did not know the latter.
He knew that Ye Yuan's current alchemy level was already far stronger than the Heavenly Empyrean Immortal Grove in the same period.
Advancing a step further, he even did not quite dare to imagine it.
Could it be that this guy did not have a limit?
"Water will flow when a channel is formed. Being too deliberate can be counterproductive instead. This period of time, why don't you relax a little first? Perhaps, you'll straighten out your ideas one day," Dustless said.
Ye Yuan nodded his head and said, "It's also time to leave seclusion. I'm afraid some people are already tired of waiting."
Ye Yuan exited seclusion, Long Zhan was long already waiting for him.
"Master, there's a Blood Yama Hall's guest waiting for you in the box room," Long Zhan said.
Ye Yuan nodded his head slightly and said, "You withdraw then, I'll handle it."
Walking two steps, Ye Yuan suddenly turned back and said, "You go and find Fan Yu to fetch a batch of spirit medicines over, just say that I said it. This is the formula. You've already been stuck at half-step Origin Deity for very long, right?"
Hearing this, Long Zhan involuntarily trembled all over. A surge of wild elation welled up in his heart and he hurriedly knelt down and said, "This lowly one has already been stuck at this step for 15 thousand years!"
Ye Yuan gave an 'mmn' and said, "Your talent is pretty good. Originally, entering the Heavenspan World, you could break through to Origin Deity. It's just a shame that it was delayed. Looking on the account of your diligence and earnestness these few years, I'll give you a ride!"
Long Zhan's entire body trembled agitatedly as he said, "Long Zhan thanks Master very much!"
Ye Yuan voiced his assent and turned around and left.
Long Zhan's pair of fists were gripped tightly, his face appearing somewhat red because of excitement.
These 100 thousand years, it was his first time being so agitated.
His state of mind that was originally akin to low-level of
water finally produced a trace of ripple.
For 100 thousand years, he bem.o.a.n.e.d how tragic his own fate was all the time.
His entire person seemingly fell into darkness, all the way until Ye Yuan's appearance.
Long Zhan had never thought that this bumpkin who came out of the Immortal Grove World like him actually had such outstanding talent.
The entire Capone Capital City was stirred until waves ran high by his new master.
All forces were revolving around his master.
"Sigh! One misstep and every step became wrong! Got to double down my efforts from now onwards. I hope that I can get Master's forgiveness in the future!" Long Zhan said with a sigh.
...
When Ye Yuan saw Yi Han, he could not help being somewhat surprised.
"Source Night pays respect to Hall Master. I didn't think that Hall Master actually arrived in person," Ye Yuan said with clasped hands.
A hint of surprise flashed across Yi Han's gaze and she said with a smile, "You actually guessed my identity long ago! Looks like I still underestimated you!"
Ye Yuan smiled and said, "Didn't think of it at that time. But after coming back from the Hundred Knows Hall, I thought carefully, and I realised that Hall Master had many suspicious points on you."
Yi Han smiled sweetly and said, "No wonder Ka Xin would die at your hands. His level of skill is far too lacking compared to you!"
Ye Yuan smiled and said, "Hall Master is too kind."
Yi Han giggled and said, "I even find that I didn't praise enough! It looks like I indeed didn't find the wrong person."
Ye Yuan gave Yi Han a glance with a profound expression and said, "Hall Master coming personally, could it be to have me return the favor?"
Yi Han gave Ye Yuan a glance reproachfully and said with devilish flirtatiousness: "You slippery little fellow, not even willing to help Elder Sister with a small favor. Must I use favor to pay it off??"
Ye Yuan broke out in goosebumps all over and said with a smile, "This favor of Hall Master isn't small! If my conjectures are right, there are already quite a few capital cities' Fiend Medicine Halls that have gathered at Capone Capital City, right? The moment I start a sermon on Dao, the entire Eminent Orchid Imperial City's Blood Yama Hall's Fiend Medicine Halls' strength will collectively rise a major level. How big this favor is, Hall Master is adept at this and don't need me to calculate, right?"
