Chapter 92: The Stir in the Imperial City
Chapter 92: The Stir in the Imperial City
Su Yun nodded, his expression calm, as if being a Tier-6 Alchemist was just commonplace.
In fact, he was secretly thrilled.
Honestly, showing off in front of others occasionally felt quite good.
Fa Ma took a deep breath to calm himself, his demeanor becoming even softer.
"If so, you recuperate your Dou Qi here, and I will also prepare."
After saying this, Fa Ma immediately left the room, his thoughts in disarray.
Su Yun sat down cross-legged, taking out a pill from the system space to recover his Dou Qi.
With his current level of Dou Qi and the help of the Green Lotus Core Flame, he could completely refine another Tier-5 medicinal pill.
But not a Tier-6 medicinal pill.
The higher the cultivation of Dou Qi, the bigger the gap between each realm.
The same principle applies to medicinal pills.
The difficulty of refining a Tier-6 medicinal pill is not on the same level as a Tier-5.
He must recover his Dou Qi to its peak state.
After some time, Su Yun's Dou Qi was replenished and fully recovered.
Soon, Fa Ma returned.
He had just gone to the Alchemist Association's inner vault.
The assessment for a Tier-5 alchemist was simple; he himself was a Tier-5 alchemist, and it was easy to gather Tier-5 recipes and the corresponding medicinal ingredients.
But Tier-6 was different.
He had just gone to the inner vault to get three Tier-6 medicinal pill recipes and the corresponding medicinal ingredients.
After all, it was the headquarters of the Alchemist Association in the Jia Ma Empire, and they had this foundation.
However, for a Tier-7 alchemist, it would be different.
One must go to the Central Plains, to the Pill Tower!
Fa Ma returned to the room, his thoughts myriad. The last time they went through such trouble was for the assessment of that kid Gu He.
Hehe, one after another, all surpassing me?
Fa Ma looked at that excessively young face and said,
"How about it, has the old man prepared everything here?"
Su Yun nodded, indicating he was also ready.
Seeing this, Fa Ma placed the recipes on the table.
Su Yun still casually selected one, immersing his soul power in it.
Just like before, it wasn't long before Su Yun withdrew his soul power.
Fa Ma raised an eyebrow.
He wouldn't think that Su Yun was just lucky, only able to refine one or two Tier-6 medicinal pills.
A blind cat running into a dead mouse, happening upon just the right one he knew how to refine.
This young man, probably has traveled a not short distance in the realm of Tier-6 alchemists as well, and has mastered many Tier-6 recipes.
Fa Ma also looked at the recipe, then took out the medicinal ingredients from his storage ring.
Su Yun prepared himself, the green flame rising again to begin refining the medicinal ingredients.
Fa Ma looked at the green flame emitting a terrifying temperature, a hint of envy in his eyes.
Heavenly flames are fatally attractive to alchemists; every alchemist dreams of owning one.
Fa Ma shook his head, withdrawing his gaze.
Heavenly flames are not only difficult to find, but the difficulty of assimilation is also high, even the lowest-ranked Mysterious Yellow Flame requires surviving life-threatening dangers to assimilate.
This is also why incidents of killing for heavenly flames, in the Dou Qi Continent, actually don't happen often.
After all, those who can assimilate heavenly flames are not simple individuals.
And even if one goes to great lengths to snatch a heavenly flame, failing to assimilate it could lead to being burned to ashes by the heavenly flame.
When Gu He, In the three-year appointment , when Xiao Yan went to the Yunlan Sect, knowing Xiao Yan had snatched a heavenly flame, he didn't entertain the thought of killing for it.
That's the reason.
And even if one succeeds, the heavenly flame might occasionally erupt violently.
Other techniques do not have the same suppressive power over heavenly flames as the "Flame Mantra" does.
This can be seen from Han Feng's experience.
Even with the practice of a fragment of the "Flame Mantra" and possessing the strength of a peak Dou Emperor, he still had to be wary of the occasional outbursts of the Sea Heart Flame.
This was one of the reasons he desperately wanted the complete "Flame Mantra."
Although heavenly flames are valuable, not everyone can tame them.
The refinement of a Tier-6 medicinal pill is very difficult. Previously, refining the Breakthrough Pill took him a whole day, and this Tier-6 medicinal pill was the same.
A day later, a huge energy fluctuation spread from the Alchemist Association, and a more conspicuous phenomenon appeared in the sky than before.
The entire Imperial City was in an uproar.
"This phenomenon... is it the formation of a Tier-6 medicinal pill?"
"That direction, it's coming from the Alchemist Association."
"Could it be that Dan King Gu He has come to the Alchemist Association?"
"No, perhaps Chairman Fa Ma has reached the realm of a Tier-6 Alchemist."
The various powers within the Imperial City were all abuzz, with the clever ones already preparing gifts to congratulate the Alchemist Association.
From the direction of the Imperial Palace, a figure in hemp clothes with a heavy aura was flying rapidly towards the Alchemist Association.
Jia Xingtian's expression was solemn.
Whether Chairman Fa had successfully broken through to become a Tier-6 Alchemist or the mysterious alchemist who appeared in Black Rock City had come to the Imperial City.
He had to see for himself.
Inside the Alchemist Association, Su Yun felt the Dou Qi reserves in his body and shook his head.
Only ten to twenty percent left.
Su Yun took out another pill from the system space and swallowed it.
There's a reason every tier has medicinal pills for recovering Dou Qi and treating injuries.
Too practical!
He handed the Tier-6 medicinal pill to Fa Ma.
Su Yun continued to recover his Dou Qi on his own.
Fa Ma looked at the pill in his hand, his gaze stupefied.
A success on the first try!
This was much better than Gu He's previous attempt.
How high was his success rate?
Fa Ma couldn't help but wonder.
During Gu He's assessment, he used up all the medicinal ingredients and only succeeded on his last chance, passing the assessment.
This person's alchemy skills are probably even above the current Gu He.
Even now, having been a Tier-6 Alchemist for some time, unless he was incredibly lucky, Gu He probably couldn't succeed on the first try.
Huh?
Fa Ma slightly turned his head, sensing Jia Xingtian's aura appearing at the door of the Alchemist Association.
Another cold and massive aura was also rapidly approaching.
Fa Ma turned back, looking at Su Yun, who was sitting aside recovering his Dou Qi.
Such a young man had become the focus of the entire Imperial City.
Fa Ma looked at the Tier-6 medicinal pill in his hand again.
It should be so.
Fa Ma put the pill into his storage ring.
Hehe, this was also one of the perks of being the Chairman of the Alchemist Association; this Tier-6 medicinal pill belonged to him now.
Arriving at the door of the Association, Jia Xingtian was already waiting there.
Seeing Jia Xingtian's hesitant look, Fa Ma shook his head.
"It's not me, you know my situation too well; I probably won't be able to take that step until I die."
Hearing this, Jia Xingtian spoke.
"Could you introduce me?"
Fa Ma shook his head again.
Jia Xingtian frowned.
"Fa Ma, we've been friends for so many years, when did you become so stingy?"
Fa Ma wasn't annoyed and explained.
"Refining a Tier-6 medicinal pill isn't that easy; he's still recovering his Dou Qi.
How can I introduce you to him?
Besides, Ice Emperor is almost here, just wait a bit longer."
