Chapter 875 Rapid Breakthrough

Qin Haodong didn’t seem to notice all this at all. He continued to shout, “Add Seven-star Grass and Blue Toad…”

Under the circumstances, Fang Qiong’er was also risking her life. Without thinking, she put the two medicinal materials into the furnace as Qin Haodong said. She had no more medicinal materials in her hand at this time.

When the medicinal materials were added into the furnace, the furnace boiled even more violently and the waves of heat distorted the air.

Su Wuxian was extremely nervous. His mind was working at high speed, as he tried to find a way to minimize the losses for the time being. But at this moment, he heard Qin Haodong shouting again, “Increase the firepower!”

“Oh, My God! Is he crazy?”

Su Wuxian almost wanted to rush over and shut Qin Haodong’s mouth. He even wanted to increase the firepower at this time. Wasn’t he afraid that the explosion of the furnace would kill all these people?

“Increase the firepower?”

Fang Qiong’er frowned. At this moment, the furnace could no longer bear it. If she increased the firepower, it would explode soon.

However, after a moment of hesitation, she made a decision. If the sky fell, they would die together at worst. After all, she could not allow him to look down on her.

Thinking of this, she immediately increased the firepower in the furnace as Qin Haodong had said.

Under the surge of Genuine Qi, the flames in the furnace suddenly more than doubled and the whole furnace was enveloped by the hot flames.

“Crack… Crack… Crack…”

Fang Qiong’er’s furnace was only an ordinary furnace, not a divine artifact like the Shennong Furnace. At the final moment of its collapse, the cracks on the furnace suddenly increased and the sounds of it breaking rang out.

Su Wuxian’s heart suddenly sunk. It really was going to explode.

A huge explosion sounded. The furnace exploded, scattering fragments in every direction.

Fang Qiong’er, who had increased the firepower, did not expect the explosion to come so suddenly. She had no time to react and could only close her eyes.

“It’s over. I was really killed by this guy!”

Just when she thought she was going to die, she was surprised to find that the explosion was not as violent as she had imagined, although she also felt the impact of the heatwave and the fragments from the furnace.

Moreover, the intensity of the explosion was far less than that of the explosion of the Level Five pills. It even failed to break through her Genuine Qi.

“What’s going on?”

When she opened her eyes again, she found that Qin Haodong was standing in front of her, holding a jade bottle and putting the nine Cultivation Pills that flew out of the furnace into it.

“Although these pills only have one vein, it’s not bad. At least the medicinal materials were not wasted.”

“What? Pills can fly from the explosion of the furnace? And there were veins on those pills?”

Fang Qiong’er sat there in a daze. She couldn’t believe everything that had just taken place in front of her. She even forgot to wipe the black dust off her face.

What the hell was going on? Not only was the power of the explosion reduced but pills could also be refined. If it was someone else who said this, she would not believe it but now the facts were right in front of her.

By this time, Su Wuxian came over and asked Fang Qiong’er with great concern, “Are you all right?”

“I’m fine!”

Fang Qiong’er came to her senses and jumped up from the ground. She grabbed Qin Haodong’s arm tightly and cried, “How did you do that?”

Seeing that his student was fine, Su Wuxian was relieved. Then he asked curiously, “Yes, Little Qin, how did you do it? It’s a miracle!”

Qin Haodong smiled and said, “It’s just a little trick. The reason why the explosion occurred was that the energy in the furnace was out of control.

“If we can integrate all the energy into the pills at this time, the power of the explosion will be greatly reduced and we won’t lose the pills at the same time.”

Both Su Wuxian and Fang Qiong’er were dumbfounded. They were all Alchemists, so they naturally knew how dangerous it was. This theory was reasonable, but in practice, it was extremely dangerous. Any slight carelessness on their part, the explosion would tear them apart.

After staring blankly for a moment, Fang Qiong’er suddenly said, “Junior Brother, I want to be apprenticed to you and learn alchemy from you.”

Su Wuxian was shocked. He knew what Fang Qiong’er’s character was like. She was extremely arrogant and never took anyone else seriously except him.

But now she wanted to be apprenticed to the young man in front of her. It could be seen that she was completely convinced in her heart.

The relationship between him and Fang Qiong’er was the teacher-student relationship. It was mostly limited to the academy. This teacher-student relationship was different from the master and apprentice relationship in a traditional sense. If Fang Qiong’er left the academy, they would not have much contact.

But it was a different story when it comes to apprentices, which was traditionally a lifelong relationship.

Qin Haodong was also a little surprised. The little girl in front of him was arrogant. However, she readily lowered herself as she was totally convinced of his skills.

He said, “Senior Sister Fang Qiong’er, you said that I am your Junior Brother. How can I be your master?”

Fang Qiong’er said sincerely, “It doesn’t matter. The one who is more capable can be my master. I think your alchemy skills are good enough for you to be my master.”

Qin Haodong waved his hand and said, “No, no, I am still a student now. I have no intention of accepting apprentices at all. If you are willing, we can learn more from each other in the future.”

“This…”

Fang Qiong’er still wanted to say something, but Qin Haodong did not give her the chance. He stuffed the pills he had just taken from the explosion of the furnace into her hand and then said to Su Wuxian, “President Su, based on your assessment, did I qualify?”

“Little Qin, your performance can be said to be perfect. From now on, you are the Level Five Alchemist of our Alchemist Association. This is your medal.”

Su Wuxian was completely convinced by Qin Haodong’s performance. He immediately took out a medal of a Level Five Alchemist from his Storage Ring and handed it to Qin Haodong.

Qin Haodong took the medal and took out the Cultivation Pills refined by him. “President Su, didn’t you say that you wanted to buy the pills I refined? Do you want to pay for it?”

“No problem, yours are the Level Three pills. I’ll buy them at the price of 400 top-level Spirit Stones for each pill. Here are 3600 top-level Spirit Stones. Keep them!”

Mr. Su said as he took out 3600 Spirit Stones from his Storage Ring. He put them in a small bag and then gave them to Qin Haodong.

Fang Qiong’er said, “President, if it weren’t for my Junior Brother’s help, not only would I have been seriously injured, but I wouldn’t have been able to take back these nine Cultivation Pills, so these pills should also be considered his.”

With that, she gave Su Wuxian the nine Cultivation Pills Qin Haodong had just given her.

Su Wuxian took the pills. “Level One Cultivation Pill with one vein is a little weak. I’ll buy them at the price of 300 top-level Spirit Stones per pill.”

He took out 2700 Spirit Stones and gave them to Qin Haodong.

Qin Haodong was overjoyed. This time, not only did he receive the Level Five Alchemist Medal but he also earned more than 6,000 top-level Spirit Stones, which gave him a sense of sudden wealth.

“President Su, do you have a quiet room that I can use? When I was refining the pills, I had some enlightenment. I want to break through.”

“Of course. This is the quiet room where I cultivate. Since you want to use it, I can let you use it.”

Su Wuxian said as he took Qin Haodong to a quiet room nearby. Then he retreated outside the room with Fang Qiong’er and closed the door casually.

Qin Haodong set up the restriction in the room and took out 6,300 top-level Spirit Stones from his Storage Ring. He piled them up in front of him. The quiet room was suddenly filled with rich Spiritual Qi.

He sat cross-legged. His Nascent Soul started rotating. The rich Spiritual Qi suddenly rushed into his body like rivers flowing into the sea. Then his cultivation improved rapidly.

As a master at the stage of Tribulation Realm in his previous life, Qin Haodong had no inner demons or obstacles in the cultivation. As long as he had enough Spiritual Qi, he could improve his cultivation to a higher level.

It didn’t take long for him to break through the bottleneck of the Apotheosis Realm and reach the early stage of the Voiding Realm.

He did not stop there and continued to absorb the Spiritual Qi in the air. About ten minutes later, there was another cracking sound inside his body. He had reached the middle stage of the Voiding Realm.

Qin Haodong slowly opened his eyes. Two successive breakthroughs had consumed a lot of Spiritual Qi. He wanted to see if these top-level Spirit Stones were enough for him to continue to break through.

However, he was shocked when he saw it. The 6,300 top-level Spirit Stones that had just been piled up had almost been used up. There were only a few hundred left.

He counted and found that there were less than 300 top-level Spirit Stones.

He couldn’t help shaking his head with a bitter smile. He had known that this kind of cultivation consumed a lot of Spirit Stones, but he didn’t expect it would be to this extent. He was rich just now but he became poor again in the blink of an eye.

These Spirit Stones could no longer be used. He needed to use them to buy herbs to refine pills and exchange for more Spirit Stones.

He had just reached the middle stage of the Voiding Realm, but he had already used up 6,000 top-level Spirit Stones. If he wanted to advance further, he didn’t know how many more Spirit Stones he would need. He had to get at least 10,000 top-level Spirit Stones.

Outside the room, Su Wuxian said to Fang Qiong’er, “What happened when you were refining pills? Why did the furnace suddenly explode?”

Fang Qiong’er lowered her head and said with embarrassment, “Mr. Su, I was too competitive. I saw that Qin Haodong had refined the Cultivation Pills in advance and my mind was disturbed. That’s why the furnace exploded.”

Su Wuxian said, “Qiong’er, you are very talented, but your only flaw is that you are too arrogant. I have told you long ago that there will always be someone better than you. You have seen it for yourself today, right?”

“Well, Mr. Su, I know I’m wrong. Although Junior Brother Qin Haodong is younger than me, his achievements in alchemy are definitely much higher than mine. I will learn more from him in the future.”

Su Wuxian nodded and said, “Qiong’er, it was Little Qin who taught you how to solve the crisis just now. Can you tell me how to gain profit in risk when it was about to explode and successfully refine nine Cultivation Pills?”

“Mr. Su, I still haven’t fully understood it. I can only describe the process of the operation to you…”

The teacher and student stood outside the classroom. They began to discuss the technique mentioned by Qin Haodong. However, this kind of thing was easy to say but extremely difficult to do.

The more they discussed, the more they felt that this was incredible. It was definitely not something an ordinary person could do.

Just when the two were discussing this heatedly, the door of the quiet room opened. Qin Haodong came out.

“Little Qin, you finished cultivating so soon?”

Su Wuxian was a bit surprised. Normally speaking, a cultivation breakthrough would take at least a few hours, yet he came out after just half an hour. Could it be that he failed?

Qin Haodong said, “President, I’ve reached the stage of the Voiding Realm. Can you let me try the exam for the Level Six Alchemist?”

Qin Haodong deliberately played a word game. He directly said that he had reached the Voiding Realm but did not mention the middle stage of the Voiding Realm. Otherwise, it would be difficult for people to accept that he had successively skipped two levels in such a short time.

“What? You broke through so quickly?”

Even so, the two were still shocked. They looked at Qin Haodong as if he was a monster. When did it become so easy to break through the bottleneck?

Qin Haodong said again, “President Su, can I take the exam to become a Level Six Alchemist?”

Just now, Su Wuxian had said that all his examinations today would be free of charge, including the use of medicinal materials.
