Chapter 3831: The Imminent Imperial War
As the saying went, ‘The connoisseur recognizes the artistry while the layman simply enjoys the show’.
For those who were not divine alchemists and amateur divine alchemists, they failed to capture the intricacies of Duan Ling Tian’s technique. They only felt that Duan Ling Tian was skilled and had mastered some secret technique to refine the Vein Recovery Limit Divine Pill.
On the contrary, in the eyes of the experts, they simply could not see anything extraordinary with Duan Ling Tian’s technique at all. They could tell Duan Ling Tian was only able to refine the Vein Recovery Limit Divine Pill because he was able to easily sense the vitality energy in the Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy and easily extract the huge amount of vitality energy he sensed.
At least, this was what Yuan Guang Ming and Hou Fang thought. They assumed Duan Ling Tian had extracted all the vitality energy he had sensed.
“It’s very difficult to sense vitality energy, and it’s even more difficult to extract it. Even for experts, this has always been a problem. Alchemy geniuses are rare due to this problem,” Hou Fang said with a wry smile, “However, this problem is not a problem at all for Alchemist Duan. He can easily sense and extract so much vitality energy.”
The divine alchemists in the surroundings nodded in agreement when they heard Hou Fang’s words.
“Amazing!”
Ding Yan, who had overheard the divine alchemists’ conversations, sighed when he learned about Duan Ling Tian’s talent in sensing and extracting vitality energy from the Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy.
When Sikong Yue, who was also among the crowd, looked at Duan Ling Tian, her expression of disdain had been replaced by one of disbelief. At this moment, she felt incredibly ashamed. She was truly ordinary compared to him. For the first time in her life, she felt inferior.
Although there were many young talents in the Eastern Ridge Mansion, those superior to Sikong Yue were usually of noble birth or were raised in top emperor-rank forces, and they were also older than her. She had always assumed she would catch up to them when she was their age. However, when she saw how skilled Duan Ling Tian was despite being so young and having no support, she suddenly doubted herself.
At this time, Sikong Yue could feel Ding Yan staring at her with a mocking expression. However, she was not in the mood to argue with him. Instead, she looked at the purple figure in the distance silently and took a deep breath before she turned around and left without saying a word.
Ding Yan was slightly surprised. He had already prepared himself to bicker with her, but she suddenly left. Why did she suddenly change?
At this time, Duan Ling Tian had already begun to refine the second Vein Recovery Limit Divine Pill. The process was the same as before.
Hou Fang thought to himself, ‘I still find it hard to believe. I want to see if he’s able to extract so much vitality energy again. Perhaps, he had just gotten lucky previously.’
Many of the divine alchemists present, including Yuan Guang Ming, shared the same thought as Hou Fang. However, unlike the others who expected Duan Ling Tian to make a mistake, Yuan Guang Ming was confident the young man, who had also come from a Devata Realm, would still be able to extract a huge amount of vitality energy this time. He did not think it was a fluke earlier.
Soon enough, Yuan Guang Ming was proven right.
In fact, this time, Duan Ling Tian extracted even more vitality energy compared to before.
As expected, Duan Ling Tian easily refined another Vein Recovery Limit Divine Pill.
“He’s successfully refined two Vein Recovery Limit Divine Pills now!”
“Let’s see if he can also successfully refine the third Vein Recovery Limit Divine Pill! If it’s still a success, there’s no doubt he’s an alchemy genius!”
Now that Duan Ling Tian refined the second Vein Recovery Limit Divine Pill, even those who were not divine alchemists were stunned by Duan Ling Tian’s success rate. Moreover, the Vein Recovery Limit Divine Pill was one of the hardest king-grade Limit Divine Pills to refine.
Yuan Guan Ming, Hou Fang, and a few divine alchemists knew that refining Vein Recovery Limit Divine Pills came very easily to Duan Ling Tian. With his skill and knowledge in alchemy, coupled with his extraordinary sensing and extraction skills, it was just like a stroll in the park for him.
Under everyone’s watchful eyes, Duan Ling Tian continued to refine the third Vein Recovery Limit Divine Pill. They were shocked once again when he saw his success
“I really can’t believe he’s so skilled.”
Murong Yin Yue, the Third Miss of the Murong clan, was stunned when she saw Duan Ling Tian successfully refining three Vein Recovery Limit Divine Pills in a row. At this time, she felt that if she were with Hou Qing Ning, her status did not give her an advantage over Hou Qing Ning at all. Although Hou Qing Ning’s background was not as good as hers, with a friend like Duan Ling Tian, Hou Qing Ning would be highly respected.
After Duan Ling Tian put away the Vein Recovery Limit Divine Pill, he rose to his feet and said, “Alright, I’m done.”
“Alchemist Duan, you… Uh, you’re really amazing,” Hou Fang said. He had wanted to say Duan Ling Tian was highly skilled, but that was really not the case for him. To him, Duan Ling Tian was born sensitive to vitality energy that gave him an advantage.
Yuan Guang Ming sneered, “Old Hou, are you unwilling to admit that Alchemist Duan is skilled? Don’t forget that sensing and extracting vitality energy is also a skill, and one of the most important aspects to refine pills. Even experts find it difficult to sense and extract vitality energy. If you don’t think he’s skilled, then who do you consider skilled? Those who mastered special techniques that anyone can master over time?”
Upon hearing this, Hou Fang, who usually bickered with Yuan Guang Ming non-stop, had nothing to say. A thought appeared in his mind, and he looked at Duan Ling Tian as he cupped his fists together and said, “Alchemist Duan, you’re so skilled that I’m no match for you. I hope you’ll advise me in the future when you have time.”
Then, Hou Fang brought his Soul Pearl before he continued to say, “Why don’t we exchange Soul Pearls? In the future, you can also look for me if you have any questions. You came from the Linghu clan, right? My junior brother’s disciple is also from the Linghu clan. In a way, we’re also related.”
Hou Fang laughed after he finished speaking.
However, Yuan Guang Ming looked at Hou Fang and sneered. “Old Hou, you’re really shameless. Related? What kind of far-reaching claim is that? In the first place, Alchemist Duan is only a Revered Elder in the clan, he has no blood relations to the Linghu clan at all. His surname is Duan, not Linghu.”
“Well, it’s also a form of connection! Apart from coming from a Devata Realm, do you have any commonalities with him?”
When Duan Ling Tian saw the two old men arguing again, he only shook his head and left silently.
Yuan Guang Ming and Hou Fang only stopped arguing when Duan Ling Tian had left. Then, they began to blame each other, starting another round of bickering.
“It’s all your fault I didn’t get to exchange Soul Pearls with Alchemist Duan!”
“You’re not the only one who failed to do so!”
At this moment, the duo did not look like Black Dragon Elders of the Flying Dragon Sect at all. They looked more like two crabby old men quarreling.
As for the others, those with the highest status were only White Dragon Elders. How could they dare to stop the duo from arguing?
The inner disciples thought that even Black Dragon Elders were no different from them. Just like them, Black Dragon Elders were also ordinary people like them. They felt as though their horizons had broadened.
…
After returning to his room, Duan Ling Tian finally had some peace and quiet.
“I can’t believe I obtained 300,000 contribution points and rare medicinal ingredients so easily.”
Duan Ling Tian was very pleased when he thought about the things he obtained in exchange for refining three Vein Recovery Limit Divine Pills in front of everyone. It took him only three hours to obtain all those things.
…
Over the next month, Duan Ling Tian continued to refine Vein Recovery Limit Divine Pills in exchange for contribution points and rare medicinal herbs. Apart from that, he also refined other divine pills, including lord-grade Limit Divine Pills.
When he refined the lord-grade divine pill, the Pill Tribulation was different from that of a king-grade Limit Divine Pill. For this reason, the others were under the impression that Duan Ling Tian had simultaneously refined two Vein Recovery Limit Divine Pills.
Word of it spread like wildfire in the Flying Dragon Sect.
When Yuan Guang Ming, Hou Fang, and the other divine alchemists heard of it, they were dumbfounded.
With some effort, Yuan Guang Ming and Hou Fang also managed to exchange Soul Pearls with Duan Ling Tian. However, after that, they discovered reality was different from what they had imagined. Previously, they thought they would be able to ask Duan Ling Tian to help them to refine other king-grade Limit Divine Pills. Alas, before they could even open their mouths, Duan Ling Tian had bombarded them with all kinds of profound questions about alchemy and divine pills. Some of his questions were so difficult that they had to look for the former Sect Leader of the Flying Dragon Sect for answers.
…
Time continued to pass, and the Imperial War drew closer and closer.
