Nine Revolutions Star Technique

Chapter 81: Chapter 82: Alchemy Genius?

Dragon-Clutching Mountain is a massive mountain range in Daqian Country, stretching thousands of miles. It is not only the number one mountain range in Daqian Country, but also in the entire Cyan Continent.

Named ’Dragon-Clutching Mountain’ because it resembles the shape of a dragon, devouring its own tail.

The dangers within the mountain far exceed those of Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain.

Rumor has it.

In Dragon-Clutching Mountain, there are even powerful beasts that surpass the Spiritual Sea Realm.

”Is this Dragon Tail Ring that my father left related to Dragon-Clutching Mountain...”

Ye Qingchen held a book quietly in contemplation.

”Forget it!”

After a moment, he shook his head privately.

Whether it is related or not, he plans to visit Dragon-Clutching Mountain to take a look.

”However, my current strength is still lacking; I need to enhance it a bit more!”

At this thought.

Ye Qingchen put down the book and walked out of the Library.

Upon seeing Chu Yao again, she was still busy with alchemy.

However, with Ye Qingchen’s guidance, she could now successfully refine the Bone Marrow Supplement Pill. Yet, what frustrated Chu Yao was that the pills she refined didn’t match up in color or quality to those of newcomer Ye Qingchen.

”Oh, you’re out already? Did you find the information you wanted?” Chu Yao’s attitude was much nicer.

”Thank you for your concern, Miss Chu. I have found it.” Ye Qingchen cupped his hands in gratitude and left directly.

Chu Yao didn’t mind.

Her main focus remained on the alchemy furnace before her.

Moments later.

Another batch of pills was completed.

Chu Yao eagerly grabbed the Bone Marrow Supplement Pill, examined it carefully, and her face fell again.

Because compared to the pills Ye Qingchen refined, her Bone Marrow Supplement Pills were smaller and more flawed, lacking the pearl-like appearance his had.

”Am I really inferior to a novice?”

Chu Yao sighed inwardly.

At this point.

Suddenly, strange voices came from outside the courtyard, and Chu Yao frowned and looked over to see a silver-haired elder with his hands behind his back, scrutinizing the surroundings with evident surprise in his ancient eyes.

The previously troubled Chu Yao immediately broke into a smile, ”Master, you’ve returned?”

The elder before her.

Was the Imperial Tutor, Kong Shun!

Kong Shun nodded slightly, his eyes twinkling as he pointedly asked, ”Was someone just here who managed to break my Illusion Array?”

”A young man, who just left not long ago.” Chu Yao replied honestly, without her former arrogance.

Upon hearing this, Kong Shun looked surprised. This Illusion Array had been set up by a Sword Dao master he commissioned, and even an expert in arrays would have a hard time breaking it.

And now, a young man broke through it?

It was simply incredible!

”When did Celestial Peak Country produce such a skilled young array master? Could he be a disciple of those old fellows?”

Kong Shun pondered silently. However, when he saw Chu Yao smiling at him, his face immediately turned stern, and he scolded, ”What are you doing here? Have you finished refining the Bone Marrow Supplement Pills?”

Chu Yao replied, ”I have refined them!”

Kong Shun: ”Bring them here for me to see!”

Chu Yao hesitated.

She was about to present her own pills, but they were too unsightly, and she feared more scolding.

So, after a moment of consideration, she directly took out the pills Ye Qingchen refined.

”Look, these are the pills I refined!”

See here.

Nine pills lay quietly in her palm, exuding a pleasant fragrance.

Uniform in size, round and lustrous, they were exceptionally fine.

”Oh?”

Kong Shun’s expression changed slightly as he picked up a pill and examined it closely.

Beside him, Chu Yao raised her head smugly, obviously pleased with his reaction. However, just as she awaited praise, Kong Shun snorted coldly:

”These pills were not made by you!”

”How do you know?” Chu Yao was dumbfounded. She thought she could pass off these pills as her own without anyone knowing. To her surprise, he saw through it at a glance.

Kong Shun held the pill, glanced at Chu Yao, and said, ”The quality of this pill is extremely high, almost reaching the pinnacle of the Yellow Grade. The power within is blended exquisitely; add a bit more and it would be too much, a bit less and it would be too little. You don’t have such high ability, so how could you refine such high-quality pills?”

Chu Yao’s face fell.

She could only honestly present her own refined pills.

Indeed.

Upon seeing them, Kong Shun nodded approvingly, ”Not bad, these are the pills you made!”

Chu Yao smiled wryly, a testament to the Imperial Tutor’s skill.

Nothing could be hidden from him.

”Oh?”

At this point.

Kong Shun expressed his surprise once more as he continued scrutinizing the pill, unable to help his exclamation, ”How peculiar! This pill...”

”What’s wrong with the pill? Is there a problem?” Chu Yao asked curiously.

”Indeed!” Kong Shun nodded, ”From this pill, you can see that the person who refined it has an exceptional grasp of medicinal power, akin to a master who has immersed themselves in alchemy for many years. Yet, some common novice errors still appeared within... So, I find it quite curious!”

Reaching this point, Kong Shun suddenly looked at Chu Yao and directly asked, ”Who exactly refined these pills?”

”It was the young man who just broke the array!” Chu Yao responded honestly.

Hearing this, Kong Shun shook his head, expressing regret.

As an Alchemy Master.

He could naturally see that the one who refined the pill possessed extraordinary talent.

But to have such unnecessary flaws now, he couldn’t help but sigh, ”Wasting heavenly resources! I wonder whose disciple this is, not seriously taught. When I see them, I must give them a stern lecture!”

He felt a deep sense of regret.

For you see, alchemy is a profound discipline, not tolerating a single error.

For low-level pills, it may be insignificant.

But for high-level pill refining, a mistake could lead to pill destruction or even death!

”Master, that young man never studied alchemy; he just watched behind me for a while and then refined this batch of Bone Marrow Supplement Pills.” Chu Yao whispered.

”What?”

This time.

Kong Shun was utterly shocked.

To be able to refine the Bone Marrow Supplement Pill just by watching for a while?

What talent is this?

Truly an unprecedented genius!

”Do you know that young man’s name?” Kong Shun quickly asked.

Such a talent must be recruited.

If he can devote himself to studying alchemy under him, his achievements in the future will surely exceed what most can imagine.

”Ah? I... I didn’t ask.” Chu Yao sheepishly rubbed her hands, full of remorse.

She was too focused on alchemy to pay attention to his name!

”Ah! You... Gah!” Kong Shun lamented, stamping his feet and blowing his beard in frustration, ”What are you waiting for? Go after him quickly! I want to meet him!”
