"Indeed well-deserving of being Empyrean Loneswan! Toward a young man's affront, he's actually not angry at all and even has the intention of guiding him."
"Heh, you look at that kid! His proud appearance really pisses people off!"
… …
Actually, how was there any pride? Ye Yuan just had a calm expression, that was all.
It was just that in the view of these people, when Ye Yuan saw a powerhouse like Empyrean Loneswan, he should be reverent and respectful, trembling with fear and trepidation, akin to treading on thin ice.
Only that way would it be apt for Ye Yuan's status.
Ye Yuan gave Empyrean Loneswan a glance and said with a strange expression, "Really want me to pick?"
Empyrean Loneswan could not help laughing as he said, "This Empyrean is a Seven-star Alchemy God. Battling in alchemy with you, a junior, could it be still let this Empyrean pick?"
Ye Yuan nodded slightly and said indifferently, "In that case … Crimson Flame Heavenly Soul Pill then."
Empyrean Loneswan's gaze turned sharp, almost choking to death.
This Crimson Flame Heavenly Soul Pill was one of the medicinal pills with the greatest difficulty among rank six divine pills.
Even refining it with his current strength, the success rate was also not high.
Furthermore, even if it succeeded, the grade would not be too high either.
He opened his mouth, wanting to speak, but he did not know what he should say.
Say that he could refine?
What to do if he screwed it up?
Saying that he could not refine?
Did he have shame or not?!
"Junior, you're deliberately here to mess with this Empyrean, right? This medicinal pill, you probably can't even learn the rudiments, right?" Empyrean Loneswan said with a dark expression.
Ye Yuan shook his head and said with a sigh, "Looks like you don't have much confidence in refining the Crimson Flame Heavenly Soul Pill. Then why not … the Amethyst Instant Pill then."
Empyrean Loneswan nearly spewed out a mouthful of old blood. Don't dig up people's dirt like this!
Furthermore … it was another level nine medicinal pill!
He was already very sure that this kid was definitely here to mess with him.
Could he have been … sent by those few fellows?
Chapter 2074 - Distinguished Guest
"The Amethyst Instant Pill doesn't work too?"
Ye Yuan shook his head with a disappointed look. He already lowered the benchmark by a lot, but this Empyrean Loneswan's strength somewhat disappointed him.
Looking at the other party's appearance, he reckoned that being able to reach the middle-stage Dao Realm was already very impressive.
Most likely, he was still lingering around the initial-stage Dao Realm.
"Uh … then let's lower the difficulty a bit, Earth Nether Imprint Pill then."
Ye Yuan talked to himself. Empyrean Loneswan's face opposite turned green.
This guy was absolutely here to nauseate him.
"Humph! Earth Nether Imprint Pill then! This Empyrean wants to see if you really have that much capability, to be able to refine a level nine medicinal pill," Empyrean Loneswan said with a cold snort.
Although this Earth Nether Imprint Pill was a level nine medicinal pill, he still had some confidence. Basically, refining middle-grade or even high-grade was not too big of a problem.
Below the stage, the faces of Song Cao and the rest were similarly ugly.
The rank six medicinal pills that Ye Yuan said, forget about refining them, they could not even learn the rudiments of them.
Their master could naturally refine them, but the success rate was not high either.
It was not that they doubted Master's strength, but that these medicinal pills were seriously too difficult to refine.
But in the view of other martial artists, they were somewhat surprised.
Empyrean Loneswan … yielded to Ye Yuan?
Ye Yuan said three kinds of medicinal pills, but he chose the final medicinal pill. Clearly, he did not have much confidence in the other two.
"Humph! Ignorant fool! To refine level nine medicinal pills, one needs to at least enter the Dao Realm before one has the chance to refine those pills successfully. He's so young, so could it be that he can be a Dao Realm powerhouse?" Song Cao said with a cold smile.
"Humph, so what even if he's a Dao Realm powerhouse? Our master is already peak initial-stage Dao Realm. Coupled with the disparity in cultivation realm and soul force, could he still lose to him?" Luo Yu said with a disdainful look.
Amidst the questioning voices, the two people started the alchemy battle.
The moment Empyrean Loneswan's aura released, everyone burst into an uproar.
These martial artists had never seen a Seven-star Alchemy God take action before. The moment he made his move at this time, it was God knows how many times stronger than the likes of SonG Cao.
To these martial artists, it was incredibly astonishing!
"This is the strength of a Seven-star Alchemy God! Even level nine medicinal pills are also a piece of cake to Lord Loneswan, right?"
"That kid actually wants to challenge such an existence, is his head okay?"
"Heh, in my view, this kid is deliberately here to nauseate people. At his age, knowing some superficial knowledge is already pretty good."
… …
The moment Empyrean Loneswan made his move, it gave people an extremely breathtaking feeling.
It was as if what everyone saw in the past were all ugly girls. Now, suddenly seeing a top-grade beauty, it drove people crazy.
There was a wave of cheering voices below the stage, cries of exclamations, as well as disdainful voices toward Ye Yuan.
Ning Tianping could not resist rolling his eyes and said speechlessly, "Truly a bunch of bumpkins who have never seen the world before. This bit of strength can let them cheer until like this."
Song Cao was standing right beside him. Hearing that, he said in a great rage, "This bit of strength? That brat probably doesn't know how to refine pills at all, right? You look, he hasn't even started until now!"
Ning Tianping laughed in spite of himself and said, "My lord is being kind-hearted and is giving your master a chance to perform. The moment he makes his move, your master will be crushed until he could be badly mauled all over!"
Song Cao smiled coldly and said, "Being razor-tongued can't change the outcome too! You guys had best be prepared to hand over the Sunshine Glow's recipe."
Ye Yuan stood on the stage, his gaze brimming with a look of disappointment.
Empyrean Loneswan's bit of strength could not even compare to the weakest Empyrean in the Cloudpill Summit!
"Open!"
Ye Yuan gave a low cry, reached his hand out, and beckoned. The medicinal pills were all taken into the medicinal cauldron.
Immediately after, a vast surging aura burst out of his body.
Everyone's cheers abruptly ceased!
Under Ye Yuan's aura, Empyrean Loneswan's alchemy aura was like a baby; weak to the extreme.
Empyrean Loneswan's expression changed wildly, the seals formed in his hands could not help but to stop.
It was only to hear a puff. A burnt smell came out of the medicinal cauldron. The materials inside were directly being refined into a ruined pill.
It was very taxing for him to refine level nine medicinal pills to begin with, so how could he withstand Ye Yuan's heavy pressure?
To him, Ye Yuan's aura was like Mount Tai crushing down on top of him; he did not have the slightest strength to resist at all.
A shock to the extreme expressions appeared on Empyrean Loneswan's face.
However, he did not fly into a great rage but was attracted by Ye Yuan's pill refinement very soon.
Not just him, his disciples were also drawn by Ye Yuan's bedazzling pill refinement.
In a place like the Northernmost Steppe, encountering such earth-shaking
alchemy skill was undoubtedly like a good rain after a long drought to them.
Ye Yuan's every move and action had a tremendous sense of beauty, possessing unusually deep Dao acc.u.mulations.
In their eyes, Ye Yuan was not refining pills but manipulating the Great Dao!
This kind of alchemy skill had simply reached the acme of perfection; inconceivable!
Amidst everyone's cries of exclamations, Ye Yuan successfully condensed the pill.
Only after a long time did Empyrean Loneswan awaken from the shock. Then, amidst everyone's shocked gazes, he bowed in salute toward Ye Yuan and said, "Master Ji's alchemy cultivation is unrivaled, Loneswan admires greatly!"
"This … Lord Loneswan, an exalted Empyrean, actually paid such solemn respects to a True God Realm boy?"
"Shocking! Too shocking! I originally thought that Lord Loneswan's alchemy cultivation already reached the acme of perfection. Who knew that Master Ji's alchemy strength is more than a hundred times stronger than Lord Loneswan!"
… …
In Skyreturn Plaza, astonished voices rose and ebbed like waves.
A dignified Seven-star Alchemy God actually carried out the etiquette of a disciple to a Six-star Alchemy God. How could it not make people marvel?
These martial artists were not versed in alchemy and did not understand the disparity between Empyrean Loneswan and Ye Yuan.
But as an alchemist, Empyrean Loneswan understood that the disparity between him and Ye Yuan was too big!
People should not look at how he was a Seven-star Alchemy God. The rank seven divine pills that he could refine were very limited.
When rank seven divine pills reached level three difficulty and above, one could not refine them at all if their realm was lacking.
Hence, when he saw that Ye Yuan had such strength, he was immediately shocked beyond words.
As for Song Cao and the rest, they had long turned to stone on the spot.
Their godlike master was actually defeated just like this?
How could this brat-like young man have such terrifying alchemy strength?
"This … Loneswan has many questions on alchemy. I wonder if Master Ji has spare time to give Loneswan a pointer or two?" Empyrean Loneswan asked carefully.
Ye Yuan said coolly, "The Northernmost Steppe's Alchemy Dao is behind the times. Coming here, this Ji will just take it as giving you a fortuitous encounter."
The moment Empyrean Loneswan heard, he could not help being overjoyed.
If there were no accidents, his accomplishments in alchemy would just be like that for life.
But if there was someone giving guidance, especially the guidance of a master like Ye Yuan, that would be totally different.
"Many thanks, Master Ji, for showing pity! Loneswan can't repay it even with ten thousand deaths!" Loneswan was incredibly agitated and gave another respectful bow toward Ye Yuan.
Finished saying, he straightened his back and immediately recovered his Empyrean's majesty as he said in a clear voice, "From today onward, Master Ji is this Empyrean's distinguished guest. If anyone dares to offend Master Ji, it's setting yourself against this Empyrean!"
Chapter 2075 - Sweeping Through Jiu Luo
Several days later, a piece of extremely explosive news spread throughout the entire Jiu Luo Ji.
Empyrean Loneswan acknowledged Ji Qingyun as his master and paid respects to the latter as a disciple!
This news was akin to a heavyweight bombshell, stirring up titanic waves in Jiu Luo Ji.
"Did I hear wrongly? No matter how powerful that Ji Qingyun is, he's also merely a Six-star Alchemy God. Does Lord Loneswan have this need?"
"Truly inconceivable! A Seven-star Alchemy God actually acknowledged a Six-star Alchemy God as a master. I've lived for tens of thousands of years, but it's still my first time hearing of such a thing."
"Just what kind of god is Ji Qingyun, to actually be able to bring Lord Loneswan into submission?"
… …
The entire Jiu Luo Ji blew up. Everyone was discussing this matter frenziedly.
Everyone was filled with curiosity toward this Ji Qingyun that popped out from no idea where.
Empyrean Loneswan had always been a godlike figure in Jiu Luo Ji all along.
Even Empyrean powerhouses also showed extra reverence to him and did not dare to offend in the slightest.
But now, this kind of godlike existence actually acknowledged a thousand over years old youth as his master. It was simply too astonishing.
But very soon, another explosive news came over. Grand Pill Establishment rolled out a new kind of wine. The name of the wine was Sunshine Glow.
Grand Pill Establishment was recruiting nine sales representatives. Once the news came out, it immediately caused a great sensation in the entire Jiu Luo Ji.
This Grand Pill Establishment was Empyrean Loneswan's force.
Not only this wine called Sunshine Glow had excellent taste, but it also had the effect of keeping out the cold.
As long as Celestial Deity Realm martial artists drank a cup, they would not need to use any cold-warding method for half a month.
As soon as this wine was rolled out, it immediately spread throughout the entire Jiu Luo Ji in a frenzy. Various restaurants, taverns, and wine shops rushed toward Grand Pill Establishment crazily, wanting to obtain Sunshine Glow's dealership rights.
Hearing this news, Zhang Tu almost went mad.
Others did not know, but he knew that this Sunshine Glow was Master Ji's wine!
Now, his intestines were almost green with regret.
Back then, if not for a moment of muddleheadedness, offending Master Ji, with the Raging Fire Tavern's strength and his relationship with Master Song Cao, wouldn't getting Sunshine Glow's dealership rights still be accomplished with ease?
But sadly, there was no regret medicine in this world that could be eaten!
Even so, Zhang Tu still brought a large gift and went to find Song Cao.
"Master Song Cao, you're also aware, my Raging Fire Tavern is number one in Jiu Luo Ji. There are hundreds of branches alone …"
"Number one? Heh heh, that's all in the past! The moment Sunshine Glow emerged, your Raging Fire Tavern probably can't even enter the top 10 anymore. Brother, don't blame me. Want to blame someone, blame yourself for not having eyes, offending Grandmaster. These things, bring them away. If Grandmaster knew about it, wouldn't he break my legs?"
Zhang Tu's words were not finished saying yet and were interrupted by Song Cao coldly, directly issuing an order to evict the guest.
Leaving the Song Manor, Zhang Tu felt like the entire world turned gloomy.
A single misstep resulted in eternal regret!
In the old days, his Raging Fire Brew was unique in Jiu Luo Ji. It could be said that he could summon the rain and wind in Jiu Luo Ji.
But now, the Raging Fire Brew was left without anyone caring about it overnight.
Sure enough, the nine great representatives were picked very quickly. As soon as Sunshine Glow came out, it was akin to like a fierce wind passing through, being all the rage.
There were long queues in the shops of the nine sales representatives every day.
Many martial artists queued for several days and nights in order to taste a mouthful of this legendary Sunshine Glow.
"Really too freaking delicious! Grand Pill Establishment is really harming people! After drinking this wine, drinking other wines will be like horse piss."
"Equipped with this jar, I won't need to think of ways to ward off the cold within a year anymore!"
"This wine should only belong in the heavens! Fine wine! Fine wine!"
… …
After Sunshine Glow came out, it became an extremely popular item very soon. Even if Grand Pill Establishment brewed it around the clock, it was also unable to satisfy the enthusiasm of all the martial artists.
Later on, the various major restaurants could only limit the supply.
A cup of Sunshine Glow was even
hiked to a sky-high price.
But even so, no one would go and sell the wine at all.
People who had the luck to purchase the wine all cherished what was theirs, hiding and tucking it away, fearful of being known by people.
On this day, Zhang Tu finally purchased a small jar of Sunshine Glow after queuing for seven days and nights.
Hence, he could not wait and drank a mouthful.
The moment the wine entered the abdomen, a mellowness instantly spread throughout his four limbs and bones, as if an electric current ran through.
At the same time, a hot current gathered at this dantian area, as if it was the blazing sun illuminating from high up, continuously warming his body.
"Fine wine! Truly excellent wine!" Zhang Tu could not resist praising.
But after praising, his expression turned dim.
Such a fine wine, he actually passed right by it!
Originally, it should be him who became a figure who could summon the wind and rain in this Jiu Luo Ji.
But now, everything was gone!
… …
Inside Grand Pill Establishment, Empyrean Loneswan was looking at Ye Yuan with a look of worship.
Toward Ye Yuan, he already prostrated on all fours in admiration.
After Ye Yuan entered Grand Pill Establishment, Empyrean Loneswan asked him about some areas that he did not understand. The incisiveness of Ye Yuan's understanding took his breath away in astonishment.
On some areas that were obstructed originally, he suddenly saw the light.
The following few days, the more he consulted Ye Yuan on Alchemy Dao, the more that he felt that Ye Yuan was unfathomable.
He even suspected whether or not Ye Yuan already stepped into the legendary Ancestor Realm.
Otherwise, how could he have such a deep understanding of Alchemy Dao?
Therefore, he steeled his resolve and acknowledged Ye Yuan as his master.
Ye Yuan hesitated for a moment but still agreed.
This Empyrean Loneswan could acknowledge him as master as a Seven-star; it could be seen that he genuinely loved alchemy.
Furthermore, Ye Yuan still had to borrow Empyrean Loneswan's power to save Lu-er.
After acknowledging him as his disciple, Ye Yuan took out the Sunshine Glow's recipe and handed it to Empyrean Loneswan.
