Chapter 2791: Horrible Pill Refining Technique
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The three prominent Celestial Alchemists felt that Duan Ling Tian’s feeding technique was too clumsy and crude, and they could not help but feel anxious.
“Out of the first four steps of the pill refinement process, it can be seen that he doesn’t place much importance in the way he retrieves the ingredients. His positioning of the pill cauldron and feeding the ingredients to the pill cauldron are unsightly as well. As for the heating of the pill cauldron, it remains to be seen if it’s successful. After all, in my opinion, it’s impossible to heat a pill cauldron in half an hour.”
“Let’s continue observing…” Situ Ming said as he shook his head.
Yu Zhong Jing nodded. At the same time, after Duan Ling Tian was done feeding the ingredients to the pill cauldron, he extended his Divine Consciousness into the pill cauldron to have a look at the situation inside. However, he discovered his Divine Consciousness could not approach the pill cauldron at all. “What’s going on?! How powerful is his Celestial Fire? Even my Divine Consciousness can’t go near it?” He was amazed to discover an aura from the pill cauldron had blocked his Divine Consciousness. He could barely catch a glimpse of what’s happening in the pill cauldron. However, at this moment, his attention was fully focused on Duan Ling Tian’s Celestial Fire.
“What kind of prominent Celestial Fire does he own? It managed to block my Divine Consciousness from such a distance!” Yang Chong exclaimed in surprise.
“You’re also blocked?” Situ Ming asked as he looked at Yang Chong in disbelief.
“So it’s the same for both of you as well…” Yu Zhong Jing was quick to realize that he was not the only one whose Divine Consciousness was blocked. Through what little his Divine Consciousness managed to glean, he suddenly said, “He’s beginning to refine the pills!”
“He has begun to refine the pill?”
“Let’s see his pill refining techniques…”
The three prominent Celestial Alchemists shifted their attention back to Duan Ling Tian as Duan Ling Tian carried out the fifth step, which was the refining process. All three men watched unblinkingly as they tried to use their Divine Consciousness to glean what little they could as well. Their expression turned from solemn to strange suddenly when they saw Duan Ling Tian refining the pills. Indeed, Duan Ling Tian seemed quite skilled in refining pills, but it was clear to them that most of his skills came from his Celestial Fire. Without the Celestial Fire, his refining techniques were rather weak.
Yang Chong thought to himself, ‘Although his refining techniques are weak, with the help of his prominent Celestial Fire, his efficiency is way higher than mine.’
‘It’s truly terrible to make comparisons… How did he obtain such an extraordinary prominent Celestial Fire? Is it even a prominent Celestial Fire? Even supreme Celestial Alchemists with their supreme Celestial Fires wouldn’t be as efficient as him, right?’ Situ Ming thought to himself.
Yu Zhong Jing shared the same thoughts as well.
After three hours, the three prominent Celestial Alchemists discovered Duan Ling Tian had completed refining the pill. They were amazed by his remarkable speed.
“This prominent Celestial Fire is truly remarkable!”
“If I have this prominent Celestial Fire, with my refining techniques, I’d need two hours at most to complete the refining of the pills.”
“Me too.”
The three prominent Celestial Alchemists’ attention was on how extraordinary Duan Ling Tian’s Celestial Fire was. They completely disregarded his skills and techniques. It was clear they were envious of his Celestial Fire. Fortunately, Celestial Fire could not be stolen by another person. Otherwise, they would have already attacked Duan Ling Tian to steal his Celestial Fire.
“He’s starting to dissolve the pill!”
As soon as Duan Ling Tian had completed the fifth step, he immediately proceeded with the sixth step, the pill dissolving step. The pill refining step was to refine the medicinal ingredients The next step, the pill dissolving step was to turn the refined ingredients into liquid. This process also fully relied on the power of the Celestial Fire. Therefore, it did not take long for Duan Ling Tian to complete this step as well.
“Even his pill dissolving technique is terrible!”
“Well, it seems like he’s truly capable of refining the Overarching Heaven Pill… However, his techniques and skills are weak. He’s not worthy of his Celestial Fire.”
“I don’t understand how a weak prominent Celestial Alchemist like him managed to obtain such a remarkable prominent Celestial Fire.”
After spending some time to dissolve the ingredients, Duan Ling Tian continued to the seventh step, the spirit gathering step. The spirit gathering step required the help of the Celestial Fire as well even though it was not as much as the previous steps. Therefore, Duan Ling Tian had to spend significantly more time on this step.
“Well, his spirit gathering techniques are not bad, it’s not so crude… However, it’s still a far cry from us.”
“Without the help of his powerful prominent Celestial Fire, this step will not be successful… His spirit gathering step is successful only because of his prominent Celestial Fire!”
“Based on what I’ve seen so far, I can confidently say his techniques are only mediocre.”
“I agree.”
Soon, Duan Ling Tian continued on to the eighth step, the pill forming step.
Just as the three prominent Celestial Alchemists had predicted, Duan Ling Tian’s pill forming technique was crude as well. Duan Ling Tian would have undoubtedly failed if it were not for his remarkable prominent Celestial Fire!
Finally, Duan Ling Tian arrived at the ninth step, the pill harvesting. It was an easy step.
“Hmm, not too bad… I managed to harvest five pills this time!” Duan Ling Tian muttered to himself. He was fully focused on refining the pills that he had completely forgotten there were four other people observing him.
“Five pills?”
“He harvested five pills?”
“Unbelievable! Based on his techniques and level, he’s at most at the early stage of a prominent Celestial Alchemist. However, he managed to successfully refine five Overarching Heaven Pill?”
The three Prominent Celestial Alchemists communicated through Voice Transmission as they looked at each other in disbelief.
“Although it’s hard to accept, there’s no doubt he has proven himself. Don’t forget, he’s not even 100 years old!” Yang Chong said through Voice Transmission to Situ Ming and Yu Zhong Jing.
Not even a100 years old! How rare was it for someone who was not even 100 years old to be able to master pill refining techniques regardless of how crude they were? Moreover, when the three prominent Celestial Alchemists were Duan Ling Tian’s age, they were far inferior to him.
“Five Overarching Heaven Pills?” Bai Ping, the Sect Leader of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect, was relieved and overjoyed when he saw Duan Ling Tian successfully refining the Overarching Heaven Pills. Moreover, Duan Ling Tian had managed to refine five Overarching Heaven Pills! He was not stingy with his praise. “Five Overarching Heaven Pills! Master Duan, your pill refining techniques are truly remarkable! Brilliant!”
In Bai Ping’s opinion, Duan Ling Tian’s skill was far superior to the three prominent Celestial Alchemists in his sect.
Naturally, the three prominent Celestial Alchemists were displeased when they heard Bai Ping’s words. However, there was nothing they could say. After all, Celestial Fires played a big part in refining pills and could also be counted as one’s skill. Although Duan Ling Tian’s pill refining technique was only average, they could not say anything since the result spoke for itself.
At this moment, Duan Ling Tian said, “Three masters, the purpose of me refining the Overarching Heaven Pills and to become the Chief Celestial Alchemist of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect is to deal with the Martial Dragon Celestial Sect and the Thousand Spiders Celestial Sect…”
Duan Ling Tian could brag about his success in refining the Overarching Heaven Pill, and yet, he did not. He looked at the three prominent Celestial Alchemists and said, “Guardian Tie had killed two men from the other two major Celestial Sect since they’d offended me, the Chief Celestial Alchemist of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect. If I weren’t the Chief Celestial Alchemist of the sect, I’m afraid they would make things difficult for Guardian Tie and the sect. I know my pill refining technique is only average, and the reason for my success is largely due to my prominent Celestial Fire. Indeed, with my skills, without the Celestial Fire, I’m not qualified to be the Chief Celestial Alchemist of the sect. However, I hope all of you will cooperate and make it known to the public that I’m the Chief Celestial Alchemist of the sect to avoid trouble. However, I don’t mind it being an empty title as long as no one knows about it!”
Duan Ling Tian clearly knew of his skills, and he knew the three prominent Celestial Alchemists could see through his skills as well. They must know his success was largely due to his remarkable Celestial Fire.
“Hm?” Bai Ping and the three prominent Celestial Alchemists were truly shocked by Duan Ling Tian’s humble words.
