Having acquired the allegiance of Yan Zhou, the Iron Lion, a master at the Peak of the First Heavenly Layer of Foundation Establishment True Person Realm, even though it's only for two years, Chen Fei felt that his purpose for this trip was already accomplished.
So, he began to entertain thoughts of leaving.
"Well, since my goal here at Azure Dragon Ravine has been achieved, it's time to return. Yan Zhou, go bring your brother here. I am now the Master of Enlightened Deity Cave. You can bring your brother directly to our cave."
Chen Fei downed the last sip of Ice Pure Liquid he held in his hand, as he got up to leave.
"As you wish, Lord Cave Master." Yan Zhou, the Iron Lion, trembled with excitement as he spoke.
Finally, there was hope for his brother's plight.
"Master Chen, you're leaving? Could you perhaps wait another day? You know of that auction by Giant Void Sect and Sima Kun tomorrow? It's said there's a seven-hundred-year-old Xuann Yin Grass among the items up for bid." Yuan Qing Master hesitated momentarily upon seeing Chen Fei's intent to leave, and hurriedly tried to persuade him to stay.
"Seven-hundred-year-old Xuann Yin Grass?" Chen Fei paused as he heard this, eyes filled with surprise as he hadn't expected such news.
"What! Xuann Yin Grass? Master Yuan, could it be the main ingredient for Yin Extinguishing Pill?" Quann Zhenyi was also visibly shocked, subconsciously sucking in a cold breath upon hearing this.
For though many might not know of Xuann Yin Grass, the Yin Extinguishing Pill was notably famous!
This pill is a Fourth Grade Low Grade Pill, able to give a Peak of Qi Refining Ninth Layer expert a thirty percent chance of advancing to Foundation Establishment True Person Realm!
What concept is this!?
Indeed, if such a pill could truly be crafted, it would undoubtedly shake the grounds, as many forces would spare no expense to cultivate a master of Foundation Establishment True Person Realm!
"Precisely!" Yuan Qing Master nodded without hesitation and said to Chen Fei, "Master Chen, what do you think? Should this Xuann Yin Grass come into possession, with your capability, crafting the Yin Extinguishing Pill surely wouldn't pose any difficulty, would it?"
"No, this item shouldn't be wasted on crafting Yin Extinguishing Pill. That would be a complete waste." However, Chen Fei shook his head, murmuring with narrowed eyes.
"Waste?" Yuan Qing was taken aback, never expecting Chen Fei to say such a thing.
It's a precious pill that gives experts a thirty percent chance to advance to Foundation Establishment True Person Realm!
Yet now, Chen Fei implies that crafting such a precious pill is a waste?
Yuan Qing felt his mind stumble a bit, somewhat befuddled.
"Indeed, a waste. But it seems we must stay an extra day. That Xuann Yin Grass is a rather good item." Chen Fei chuckled with narrowed eyes, deciding to stay an additional day.
After saying this, he seemed to suddenly recall something, slapping his forehead, and turned to smile at Quann Zhenyi.
"Look at me and my memory. Previously, I promised you rewards if the matter was handled well." Chen Fei smiled at Quann Zhenyi.
"Master Chen, I, I…" Upon hearing this, Quann Zhenyi's eyes narrowed. His emotions flared instantly.
He certainly hadn't forgotten what Chen Fei had promised him.
To make him, make him, a Third-Level Alchemist!
"Here's how it is, I'll teach you a method of alchemy, alright? This method can slightly enhance the quality of pills." Chen Fei then chuckled slowly, as he spoke.
"What? An alchemy method that improves pill quality?" Quann Zhenyi was still processing the information when Yuan Qing Master beside him exclaimed with excitement.
In the alchemist circle, it's widely known that any alchemical method with amplifying effects is exceedingly valuable! Any alchemist possessing such a method guards it as a prized treasure, more precious than their own life!
Yet now, Chen Fei offers to teach Quann Zhenyi such an alchemical method and one that enhances pill quality, how could Yuan Qing not be astonished!?
Knowing that Yuan Qing himself, at such a height and level, has nothing resembling a decent alchemical method!
And now …
Thud!
"... Alchemical method? Thank you, Master Chen, thank you, Master Chen, thank you, Master Chen…"
Stunned for some time, Quann Zhenyi finally returned to his senses.
With a thud, he kneeled directly.
His face was full of immense excitement, trembling with gratitude.
As an alchemist, he comprehends profoundly the astonishing value of alchemical methods!
And this, for him, could potentially alter his entire life.
How could he not be excited!?
"Stand up. No need for that, young one. Master Yuan, perhaps you'd like to take a look too? Perfect chance to see if my method needs any refinement. Let's discuss together." Chen Fei shook his head, encouraging him to rise.
He then looked toward Yuan Qing, extending the invitation to join. The method was entirely ordinary, nothing problematic, so he was happy to do someone a favor.
"I can join too?"
"Ah!"
Upon hearing this, even Yuan Qing Master couldn't help but take a deep breath.
His heart was already in tumult. Trembling with excitement.
But after the fervor, a moment of hesitation appeared across his expression, eventually steeling himself to speak, "Young Master Chen, may I perhaps call some others, to have them come observe as well?"
With an opportunity like this, naturally bringing more alchemists to observe and enhance together is the optimal result.
Yet, he worried about Chen Fei's willingness. After all, allowing Yuan Qing to join was generous enough, wanting to push further seemed unreasonable.
Thinking this, Yuan Qing regretted causing trouble for himself. His thoughts conflicted greatly.
"Alright. But, those below Third-Level Alchemist shouldn't bother, it'd be too difficult to understand, and I lack the time to explain one by one." Chen Fei didn't mind, smiling as he relayed.
He had far too many such methods in his possession, enough for casual dissemination without any concern.
"Master Chen possesses a generous heart." Upon hearing, Yuan Qing felt a slight pang of guilt. His gaze toward Chen Fei brimmed with respect.
Being willing to spread such invaluable alchemical methods reflects a magnanimous spirit deserving admiration.
"Nothing much to it. Let's find a suitable place to practice alchemy." Chen Fei shook his head with a smile, standing up.
"Master Chen, everyone, come with me please." Yuan Qing Master promptly took the lead in guiding them, leading Chen Fei and the others to his exclusive top-tier alchemist site.
Meanwhile, the news that Yan Zhou, the Iron Lion, and Yuan Qing Master were accompanying Chen Fei arrived at Elder Duanmu's Duanmu Mansion through informants.
