Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 1449: Chapter 540: The Nine Zhang Cauldron, Hundred Pills Unison Refining!_3

”Who knows for sure, but what I do know is that for these past few months, Demon King Qingyang hasn’t been preparing elixirs at all, but has been building up his energy, while waiting for those below to prepare various raw materials for him in advance.”

”What are you all whispering about? Being able to watch a Third Order Pill Refiner personally conduct pill refinement, this may be the only bragging right you’ll have in your entire life. Why aren’t you watching more attentively?”

”Senior’s rebuke is well deserved! We were being frivolous.”

”Yes, indeed. If by chance we can learn even just one or two techniques and pass them on to future generations, it wouldn’t be a bad heirloom skill.”

In the midst of such torrential discussions like waves crashing one after another,

on that peacefully towering small island, silhouettes under the methodical direction of a tall female cultivator, moved fluidly as if they were water, each stepping out in their own way.

They took up positions around the island, then each took out various kinds of medicinal ingredients from their storage bags.

Upon closer observation, the ingredients each person brought out were exactly the same type, without any deviation.

In total, there were eighteen people, spaced far apart, but upon closer inspection, it was clear that they formed a large circle.

In the middle was left an open space.

The crowd exchanged glances—could it be that the open space in the middle was where the pill refinement would take place?

But there were no signs of any special preparations!

There were no fireproof bricks, fire formations, or any other auxiliary tools typical of a pill refinement room.

How was Demon King Qingyang going to refine pills?

Just as the crowd was immersed in their doubt and speculation, there came a sudden stir.

Unknown to them when, there already stood a man in the center of the circular plaza, draped in a large, white Daoist robe.

Merely standing there, his tall figure was like a mountain, compelling people to hold their breath and look up.

It was Demon King Qingyang!

Suddenly,

with a grand sweep of his wide sleeves, a small tripod swirlingly flew out.

The small tripod was pale gray in color, as if it were outside the realm of the Five Elements, yet paradoxically seemed to encompass all things within the universe, the Yin and Yang, the Five Elements.

Once released, it grew upon meeting the wind.

Three inches, seven inches, one foot, ten feet, thirty feet...

Ultimately, under the astounded gaze of everyone watching, it transformed into a nine Zhang tall giant cauldron, standing thunderously like a high-rise, upon Yao Yue Island.

By the lakeside, some lower order cultivators could not help but exclaim,

”Is that really a pill refining cauldron?”

Three legs and two handles, its shape rounded and full, with a thick pill fragrance lingering around it—it was indeed a pill cauldron, its only discrepancy being much larger in size.

Luo Chen watched this scene with satisfaction, then opened his mouth to exhale.

A wisp of green flame gently billowed out.

With the amplification of his Qi Power, it too grew upon meeting the wind, transforming into a roaring blaze that completely enveloped the Primordial Chaos Tripod.

That was not all; he leaped into the air, flying up high to overlook the scene below.

His sleeves billowing out, the prepared medicinal materials near him, shone like Liuguang as they continually fell into the Primordial Chaos Tripod.

One portion, two portions... until a hundred portions of medicinal ingredients were all gathered within the cauldron, only then did Luo Chen cease his movements.

At this moment, his expression took on a few shades of solemnity.

The test had come!

If he could successfully conduct the Hundred Pills Unison Refining, then in the future, he could save a tremendous amount of time wasted in pill refinement during his cultivation journey.

He would be able to refine many elixirs at once, allocating the time saved to other pursuits.

In the Green Sun Great Hall on Yao Yue Island, a black flag leaned against the doorway.

On the flag, a pair of ghost Qi condensed eyes burned fiercely, watching the figure above the giant cauldron.

”Such a grand spectacle, even the Medicine King Sect only witnessed it once every ten years.”

”Even the Grand Alchemy Sect Green Dan Valley would rarely see such an event.”

”Such a display, such bearing, such grace—it is in no way inferior to those Fourth Order Pill Refiners from the Nascent Soul Ascendant Sect!”

”Luo Chen, haha... The cultivators here only know you as Demon King Qingyang but are sadly unaware of your Daoist name, Dan Chenzi; truly a pity.”
