Alchemy Master

Chapter 345, About to Erupt

Translator: Silavin

A Fifth Grade Pill could only be refined by a Human Grade Alchemy Master. If one’s Spiritual Energy had not reached that level, they would need to rely on the power of the Pill Furnace.

Naturally, the Pill Furnace would need to be at least be of the Earth Grade to help the Alchemist in this regard. Otherwise, there would be absolutely no possibility of successful refinement.

They did not believe that the thing in front of Qin Yichen, which barely qualified as a Pill Furnace, could be an Earth Grade Pill Furnace.

While they were sneering, Chairman Lin had already thrown the Spirit Medicine into his Pill Furnace. As a Human Grade Alchemy Master with Understanding Realm mastery over Spiritual Energy, he had reached the state of being able to measure in his heart.

What made the Elders want to burst out laughing was that Qin Yichen was simply doing the same thing, grabbing Spirit Medicine and casually throwing them into his broken Pill Furnace.

At this point, they did not even want to mock his ignorance and arrogance anymore. Still, they were rather curious – how could such a Small Pill Furnace possibly hold so many Spirit Medicine thrown in at once?

However, amid their surprised gazes, Qin Yichen did manage to shock them. Indeed, that palm-sized Pill Furnace somehow managed to contain all the Spirit Medicine, which in a pile would be several times its size.

“Look, Chairman Lin has started refining!” Soon, the Elders stopped paying attention to Qin Yichen and turned their admiring gazes toward Chairman Lin, who had already started the firing refinement process.

With his movements, a vast wave of Spiritual Energy subtly spread out. Under this Spiritual Energy, the Elders all felt a sense of oppression.

Under such pressure, forget about Pill refining – normal people would find it difficult to even breathe normally.

*Pat! Pat!* After two palm strikes that separated the medicinal materials in the Pill Furnace for refinement, Chairman Lin did not continue refining but instead turned his gaze toward Qin Yichen opposite him.

“This… is Chairman Lin not planning to expend effort?”

Seeing his actions, the Elders’ pupils contracted. From the looks of it, Chairman Lin was not planning to end this Alchemy Duel with Pill refining.

During the Pill refinement process, comparing Spiritual Energy was the true essence of an Alchemy Duel!

Although Chairman Lin’s action seemed somewhat like bullying, nobody would say anything.

After all, that kid had brought it upon himself!

As Chairman Lin’s gaze fell on Qin Yichen, a vast surge of Spiritual Energy emanated from his body, transforming into a tide that crashed toward Qin Yichen.

Sensing this movement, the Elders’ expressions changed. From this Spiritual Energy tide, it was clear that Chairman Lin was not using his full power. Even so, this casual strike would be difficult for these Elders to withstand.

“Ah, what a pity, missed another chance to witness Chairman Lin refining Pills.”

The Elders shook their heads slightly. Since Chairman Lin had made his move, this Alchemy Duel should be over.

*Bang!*

Carrying violent turbulent winds, the Spiritual Energy tide rushed toward Qin Yichen. It was already approaching, yet he still showed no reaction, as if frightened stiff.

Nobody present mocked him though. For a seventeen or eighteen-year-old youth to be scared stiff when facing a Human Grade Alchemy Master’s attack was understandable.

Meanwhile, Chairman Hai wore a smile, his thoughts were very different. He also could not be bothered to explain anything.

“Damn brat, weren’t you sharp-tongued earlier? Think I’ll let you off if you act pitiful now? Since you dared to insult me, you must pay the price for it!”

A fierce look flashed in Chairman Lin’s eyes as his Spiritual Energy pressed down directly. While not intending to outright kill Qin Yichen, he clearly meant to destroy his Divine Soul Bead and waste his Spiritual Energy cultivation.

Just as that Spiritual Energy tide was about to crash into Qin Yichen, he finally raised his head.

*Boom!* The moment he raised his head, a terrifyingly vast Spiritual Energy also surged forth, violently meeting the attack.

*Bang!*

Before anyone could react, their Spiritual Energies had already collided, transforming into violent spiritual storms sweeping outward.

*Thump!* Under this impact of Spiritual Energy, Chairman Lin’s body actually stepped backward, while in contrast, Qin Yichen stood firmly in place, unmoved.

“Old Lin, are you just tickling me?” At this moment, Qin Yichen’s mocking voice rang out, accompanied by a terrifying pressure of Spiritual Energy spreading outward.

“Hu-Human Grade Alchemy Master!” Feeling this Spiritual Energy wave that could crush their own, the Elders’ eyes were filled with shock.

“Human Grade Alchemy Master? This is impossible!!” Chairman Lin, who had stepped back, now came to his senses. Though, he was still in shock. He could not believe his eyes. However, that Spiritual Energy pressure was indeed comparable to his own!

“This the person Chairman Lin called us here to expel!?”

At this point, the Elders began to question Qin Yichen’s identity, turning their gazes toward Chairman Hai, whose composed smile left them speechless.

Chairman Hai had clearly known about Qin Yichen’s strength all along.

[How can this kid be a Human Grade Alchemy Master!? Even I only broke through to become a Human Grade Alchemy Master at sixty years old! Him? Eighteen? Nineteen? Even if he started cultivating in the womb, it shouldn’t be possible to be this fast!] Chairman Lin’s heart surged with shock, but after a moment, he pushed these chaotic thoughts aside.

[So what if you’re a Human Grade Alchemy Master? Someone your age can’t possibly have achieved this through normal cultivation. You must have encountered some great opportunity! *Hmph!* Having powerful Spiritual Energy means nothing if you can’t control it properly. How can you possibly compete with me in an Alchemy Duel?!]

Soon, Chairman Lin collected himself, and with a thought, terrifying Spiritual Energy emanated from him again. This time, he was not holding anything back.

“Chairman Lin is getting serious!”

“Such a young Human Grade Alchemy Master deserves Chairman Lin’s full attention, but he still won’t be his match.”

“Of course not. Chairman Lin has been a Human Grade Alchemy Master for over ten years. How could some lucky youngster possibly compare to him?”

The observing Elders unanimously stepped back, afraid of being caught in the aftermath of their Spiritual Energy.

It was no joke. Even with their Peak Spirit Realm Spiritual Energy cultivation, they could not compare to Human Grade Alchemy Masters.

One had formed a Spiritual Body, while the other relied on their Divine Soul Beads to control Spiritual Energy. There was a fundamental difference between the two!

As Chairman Lin made his move, Qin Yichen was not idle either. Terrifying Spiritual Energy similarly surging forth as they faced each other.

On one side was Alchemy Central’s one of two giants, Chairman Lin.

On the other side was an unexpected youth, who was a Human Grade Alchemy Master.

The Alchemy Duel between the two was about to erupt!
