Chapter 206 - Competition
As the old man waved his hand, the space slightly trembled. A dark bird with cauldron patterns engraving around the spirit fire appeared.
The dark colored pill furnace suddenly crashed to the ground!
“It is the ancestral dark bird divine fire furnace. Even if it’s a grade five spirit pill, it can increase the success rate by more than 30% . If there’s spirit fire, the effect can be even higher.”
With another wave of his hand, all the ingredients for the origin increasing pill were revealed.
The old man’s eyes were bright as he looked at Xuan Yi and extended his hand to indicate.
Gradually, Xuan Yi walked forward and circled around the pill furnace. A trace of satisfaction flashed in his eyes. With this pill furnace in his hand, Xuan Yi could display his skills.
Xuan Yi opened his eyes after a few breaths.
Under the surprised expression of the old man, a bit of spirit fire drilled out and released its power with a bang.
“Spirit Fire? !”
The old man’s heart shuddered. Even she, or even a sage expert who was stronger than him, might not be able to obtain spirit fire!
This fire was incomparably precious!
His eyes were filled with envy as the furnace began to turn crimson. Then, it began to float in the air, and the symbols around it began to slowly flow.
Xuan Yi nodded and entered the state of pill refinement. He waved his hand, and the ingredients for the essence augmenting pill flew up one after another. After they were processed separately, they jumped into the pill furnace to extract the essence!
Half a moment later, he cast the spirit incantation into the pill furnace, after which the ingredients began to spin inside the pill furnace.
Another half a moment later, the spirit fire retreated and returned to Xuan Yi’s glabella.
The pill furnace suddenly shook.
All of the eight pills belonged to high-grade fifth grade!
Just then, Xuan Yi reached out and grabbed the spirit pill in his hand, somewhat satisfied.
After all, this was only the first time he had refined the essence augmenting pill tower. Although this pill furnace was good, it was only his first time touching it. At the moment, he was somewhat familiar with refining pills, but he hadn’t fully displayed the pill King’s abilities. From the results, he could be considered pretty good.
The old man was pleasantly surprised, and his eyes shone brightly!
“All of the eight pills are of good quality! Fantastic!”
He had originally thought that it was already pretty good to have a few high-grade pills. He hadn’t thought that mystic one’s pill refining standards would actually reach such a high level!
In his opinion, he had already utilized the spiritual materials to the extreme!
“Give me six pills.”
As soon as he uttered this, Xuan Yi’s heart stirred slightly. Was he planning to go back on his word?
“Um, don’t joke with me.”
“Didn’t we agree on half?”
As Xuan Yi’s smiling expression disappeared, his face turned slightly cold.
He had agreed to give half, so it should be four pills. Now, he was asking him for six pills. He didn’t mention it clearly beforehand, and now he wanted to take three-quarters?
Xuan Yi frowned tightly as he looked at the old man from the south of the city.
He did not care about the number of pills. Although he had earned back the vitality increasing pills, which were nothing compared to the pills he was about to refine, he did not care about such a casual act.
Xuan Yi was very displeased.
How could a person go back on his word?
“Patriarch, I am serious with you. If you give me the spirit pills obediently, patriarch might even be kind enough to let you off!”
“No matter how much nonsense you say, believe it or not…”
He did not conceal his threat at all.
“I’m all alone. Even if I kill you and go far away, who can do anything to me?”
Xuan Yi was not in his eyes at all.
After all, he was from a family that had once produced pill kings. The old man from the south of the city knew very well that even an ordinary fifth rank pill King’s strength might not be at the sect master realm. Even if this brat in front of him was at the sect master realm, his fighting strength was not enough.
The reason was very simple. He didn’t have the time!
To become a pill king at such an age, how could he possibly have the time to cultivate Martial Dao?
Everyone knew that the Dao of alchemy and the Dao of Martial Dao were both big taboos.
Especially the Dao of alchemy. Even if one was a genius in the Dao of alchemy, if one didn’t put all of their experience above pill refinement and split their energy to study Martial Dao, then the final result would most likely be that both were useless.
Therefore, very few alchemists would split their attention to study martial arts.
Most alchemy kings were in the law enforcement realm.
Apparently, the old man from the south of the city was a genuine sect master realm.
What was even more wonderful was that he wasn’t from the myriad mountain region, and was even alone.
If Xuan Yi really didn’t know what was good for him, not only would he be able to instantly kill all the spirit pills, he could also obtain Xuan Yi’s spirit fire!
As the old man from the south of the city looked at Xuan Yi, his eyes were ice-cold, which indicated his strong killing intent!
In this world, the strong were the most respected.
Xuan Yi looked at the old man from the south of the city who seemed to have his way with him and smiled.
His eyes were slightly cold. “You want to kill me? That’s hilarious.”
“Before coming here, didn’t the Xiao family tell you that not only am I an alchemy king, but I’m also a sect master? !”
Boom!
Xuan Yi’s expression was cold as his aura erupted.
He looked at the old man as if he was a god.
It was one thing for this old man from the south city to go back on his word, but now, he was actually openly releasing killing intent at him. That incomparably greedy gaze that looked at the center of Xuan Yi’s brows caused Xuan Yi to fly into a rage!
“Fine!”
“If you want it, then come and take it!”
“If you can’t get it, then die!”
“Sect leader realm?”
The old man from the south of the city waited for Xuan Yi’s eyes, looking at him in bewilderment.
From his point of view, for Xuan Yi to be able to reach the fifth grade pill king realm at such an age was already an extremely heaven-defying matter. There might not be many in the entire south continent.
However, for the old man from the south of the city, entering the Pill King Realm in the Dao of alchemy, the martial realm would definitely not have any outstanding achievements.
Not all pill kings had the cultivation of the cult master realm. Even being able to reach the law enforcement realm was already not bad.
In fact, to be able to reach the law enforcement realm at Xuan Yi’s age, in the eyes of the old man from the south of the city, was already considered to have extraordinary talent in the Dao of martial arts!
However, to the cult master realm, the law enforcement realm could be destroyed with a flip of the hand.
And the old man from the south of the city himself was a genuine cult master realm expert.
That was why he felt that he had Xuan Yi by his side.
In the end, when Xuan Yi unexpectedly erupted with the fluctuations of the sect master realm, he was truly shocked.
But after a few breaths, the corners of his mouth curled up, and he couldn’t help but laugh out loud.
He himself was born into an alchemy family, and he clearly knew that ordinary people who wanted to break through to the fifth grade pill king realm would almost exhaust their energy. Therefore, in terms of martial arts, alchemists were usually not strong.
Moreover, so what if they were at the sect leader realm.
Alchemists who broke through to the sect leader realm mostly used medicinal pills to push themselves up.
The old man felt that the sect leader realm was just a seemingly unimportant slide pillow.
“Hahahaha! The sect leader realm! It’s really funny.”
The old man from the south of the city had a mocking look in his eyes as he narrowed his eyes. The spirit source around his body slowly rose and then fell with a bang!
In the sky, the wind became stronger and clouds darker. In an instant, dark clouds covered the sky, as if a thunderstorm was about to descend.
A terrifying pressure was suddenly unleashed.
“What happened?”
This fluctuation far surpassed law enforcement. It was even weaker than a Half Master Realm expert.
The hearts of the residents of Feng City trembled. They all raised their heads and looked towards the south of the city. They didn’t understand what was happening there.
