Chapter 718 - 718 718 A Palm

Chapter 718: Chapter 718: A Palm Chapter 718: Chapter 718: A Palm Silence! The streets around the teahouse went dead silent.

The transcendent alchemy had shocked everyone present.

The crowd on the streets around the teahouse seemed to be frozen in place by a spell, the scene came to a standstill, and no one moved an inch.

Master Li, the alchemist, was completely dumbfounded, his old eyes wide and bulging. He had never seen nor heard of such miraculous alchemy.

Master Li could hardly believe it. A young man in his early twenties possessed such terrifying and mystical alchemical skills.

“He… he doesn’t even need a pill furnace! How is that possible…” Gong Shaoye said in a daze, his expression rigid to the extreme.

Gong Shaoye was the first to break the silence, his trembling voice shattering the dead quiet.

“Was the elixir concocted?” someone asked in a dazed blink.

“It… it was concocted, or… it seemed like it wasn’t, but he doesn’t even have a pill furnace!”

“In the blink of an eye, the elixir was concocted! How is that possible! Is this some sort of trick?”

Feng Wuchen’s alchemy was too fast. The scene was ethereal and magical, giving people the impression of a trick, and before everyone could react, the elixir was ready.

In just a moment, the streets around exploded into a cacophony, the noise surged skyward, almost drowning out Xuanmu City.

It was too mystical, so much so that everyone found it hard to believe. They would rather believe that pigs could climb trees than accept that Feng Wuchen had instantaneously concocted a Sixth Grade elixir.

Feng Wuchen looked at Master Li, who was stunned and confused, and said with a light smile, “Master Li, this Huoyang Purple Spirit Pill of mine, in both quality and aura, surpasses the one you concocted. You’ve lost.”

Even those who weren’t alchemists could see that the elixir Feng Wuchen had made was of much higher quality and had more spiritual energy than Master Li’s. The difference was too great and apparent at first glance.

“Impossible… this just can’t be possible…” Master Li said, shaking his head in disbelief.

As a Fifth Grade alchemist and the strongest in the vicinity of Xuanmu City, being defeated by a junior, and so miserably at that, was something Master Li couldn’t accept.

Looking at the shocked crowd, Liu Qingyang and the others wore a hint of smugness on their faces.

“Now you can tell me about Kunlun Valley, tell me everything you know,” Feng Wuchen said with a calm smile, his tone quite even.

“Master, don’t let him deceive you!” Gong Shaoye suddenly woke from his shock and said in a hurried voice: “There is no such powerful alchemy in this world, he’s tricking us! He didn’t concoct that elixir; he must have prepared it in advance.”

“Deceiving? Prepared in advance?” Liu Qingyang and the others were taken aback, and couldn’t help but twitch at the corners of their mouths.

“Gong Shaoye has a point! Who can concoct an elixir instantly?”

“Right! He must be tricking us, he doesn’t even have a pill furnace! How could he possibly concoct a Sixth Grade elixir?”

“I also don’t believe in such Nitian alchemy. Even an Eighth-Rank Alchemist can’t do it, let alone a junior. It’s just not possible.”

With Gong Shaoye’s words, there was a strong reaction from the crowd; they all believed what Gong Shaoye said.

Concocting a Sixth Grade elixir in an instant was indeed too mystical and terrifying to be believed.

Seeing the crowd’s reaction, Feng Wuchen was also somewhat taken aback; winning yet being suspected of cheating!

Feng Wuchen was almost laughably helpless, yet there was nothing he could do.

The Divine Skill, One-Thought Pill Concoction, was indeed hard to believe.

“You little rascal! How dare you fool me!” Master Li’s face twisted fiercely as he lashed out at Feng Wuchen, his eyes filled with murderous intent.

No matter whether Master Li believed whether Feng Wuchen was cheating or not, he at least had to find a way to save face. As the strongest alchemist in Xuanmu City, how could he lose face before the people of Xuanmu City? And how could he lose to a junior?

If he lost, could Master Li Dan ever show his face again?

“Whether it’s a bluff or not, you know in your heart. If they can’t see it, can’t you?” Feng Wuchen said with a faint cold smile.

“Master, this kid is clearly insulting you! Stop wasting words with them, kill him!” Gong declared, fanning the flames.

As a genius of Xuanmu City, having been seriously injured by Liu Qingyang with one punch, Gong had completely lost face; now that he had the chance for revenge, he would certainly not miss it.

“Buzz!”

The terrifying power of an Eighth Grade Heavenly Human burst forth from Master Li Dan, and a green light instantly spread out from under his feet, a fierce Qi Force sweeping across, creating a howling wind that frightened the onlookers into sheer panic.

“The old man is quite strong!” Beidou Yan commented with a faint cold smile.

“He’s just overestimating himself,” Liu Qingyang said, shrugging off the comment.

“Boom!”

Without another word, Master Li Dan violently stomped on the ground, with a blasting sound as he surged out, exploding the ground and sending rock fragments flying.

The terrifying momentum was heart-stopping, and the streets cracked where Master Li Dan passed.

In the blink of an eye, Master Li Dan’s figure abruptly approached, bringing a strong whirlwind with him, his palm, imbued with terrifying power, showed no mercy as it struck towards Feng Wuchen.

Master Li Dan struck viciously, with intent to kill in a single blow!

The many onlookers displayed schadenfreude smiles, all with the appearance of someone expecting to see Feng Wuchen dead.

“Boom!”

“Pfft!”

Feng Wuchen’s expression remained unchanged. As soon as Master Li Dan moved, Feng Wuchen casually struck back with a palm, and with a booming sound, Master Li Dan, whose face bore a vicious smile, suddenly stiffened and spat out blood, his body was sent hurtling backward, flying to the end of the street.

“How is this possible…” Master Li Dan’s face shifted dramatically, his eyes nearly popping out in shock.

As an Eighth Grade practitioner of the Heavenly Human Realm, Master Li Dan had been nonchalantly struck by a junior, causing him to spit blood!

Shock! The whole place was in shock!

The onlookers who reveled in the disaster and those who had imagined Feng Wuchen being blasted to death, now wore expressions of horror and disbelief.

“Li… Master Li Dan has been injured by a palm strike from that youth…”

“How… How is this possible? Master Li Dan, with his Eighth Grade Heavenly Human cultivation, can’t even withstand that youth!”

“A casual palm strike injured Master Li Dan, could that youth possibly be from the Tianji Realm?”

At this moment, the scene once again erupted, with everyone terrified by Feng Wuchen’s fearsome strength, their gaze towards him now filled with immense fear.

So young, yet so terrifyingly strong, could his background be minor?

“Master Li Dan, after losing, do you still want to kill to silence others? Can’t you accept defeat, or are you just afraid of losing face?” Feng Wuchen asked coldly with a sneer as he stepped forward.

As he passed by Gong, Gong was so scared that he collapsed to the ground, overwhelmed with fear.

The wounded Master Li Dan, looking at Feng Wuchen with incredible shock, couldn’t believe that the young man before him possessed such terrifying cultivation.

“Master Li Dan, either accept the bet and admit defeat or I’ll kill you. Choose one,” Feng Wuchen said with a faint cold smile, and in the blink of an eye, he had eerily made his way in front of Master Li Dan, his domineering presence shaking him to the core.
