The Strongest Dandy in the City Chapter 2580 - 2569: Preparations Before Alchemy
Previously on The Strongest Dandy in the City...
After it was confirmed one hundred percent that Ye Chenfeng was a Supreme Alchemist.
Fan Qianrong’s breathing suddenly became rapid. He knew that initially, his entry into the realm of Supreme Alchemist was far off, but having a Supreme Alchemist willing to mentor him was undoubtedly of immense benefit to him.
Those who excel in cultivation become mentors.
The same principle applies to alchemy. At the age of thirty, Ye Chenfeng reached the level of Supreme Alchemist, which testifies to his extraordinary talent and profound foundation in alchemy.
Coming back to his senses, Fan Qianrong stared at Ye Chenfeng with an excited expression, as if he was looking at a world-class treasure. His face flushed red, and his body trembled due to excitement: "Ye, Ye young friend, no, Ye senior, I apologize for my poor eyesight. Please do not take offense, Ye senior."
Fan Qianrong was very respectful, bowing toward Ye Chenfeng. In the world of alchemy, hierarchies based on grades are highly emphasized.
Therefore, Fan Qianrong did not show any awkwardness when he addressed Ye Chenfeng as senior.
Shen Tingyu’s beautiful eyes emitted a brilliant glow. In her heart, there was an indescribable feeling. At thirty years old, Ye Chenfeng had attained the Initial Stage of the Divine Emperor Realm—an unprecedented feat—and he was also a Supreme Alchemist, which was simply extraordinary beyond measure.
Meanwhile, Shen Xiuhai, upon confirming Ye Chenfeng’s identity as a Supreme Alchemist, instantly felt a surge of hope, and excitedly said, "Old brother."
After calling this, Shen Xiuhai paused slightly, now realizing he was truly unqualified to call Ye Chenfeng his elder brother.
One must know that Ye Chenfeng is indeed a Supreme Alchemist.
With the status of a Supreme Alchemist, there are many powerful beings at the Middle Stage of the Divine Emperor Realm in the entire Middle Realm willing to serve him, and countless families willing to assist him. Even in the Upper World, the identity of a Supreme Alchemist is not to be underestimated.
Ye Chenfeng noticed Shen Xiuhai’s thoughts and casually waved his hand, saying: "Let’s stick to the original terms of address. Since you’re willing to leave the last refinement chamber of the Emperor Chamber for me, I will naturally cherish this favor."
Seeing Ye Chenfeng speak so candidly, Shen Xiuhai was even more excited. He did not expect his enthusiasm would forge such an extraordinary bond with this old brother, and it seemed that their Shen family was truly about to prosper. He said: "Alright, old brother, no need to say much else. In the future, should you ever need anything from the Shens, our entire family will undertake anything without hesitation."
Ye Chenfeng merely nodded slightly: "Take me to see your brother’s situation first."
Shen Xiuhai promptly said: "Old brother, follow me."
After leaving the valley, Shen Xiuhai led them to a secret chamber in the Shen residence.
Upon entering the chamber, a bone-chilling coldness could be immediately felt, reverberating in the air.
The light in the chamber was dim, with a huge, elongated ice block positioned on the right side, from which the cold emitted.
On this massive ice block lay a middle-aged man in a state of unconsciousness.
Upon approaching the ice block, Shen Xiuhai said, "Old brother, this is my brother Shen Xiutian."
Ye Chenfeng placed his palm on Shen Xiutian’s chest, channeling spiritual energy into his palm to closely sense the condition within Shen Xiutian’s body.
Careful sensing revealed.
Shen Xiutian had not only sustained damage to his internal organs, but he was also afflicted by an extremely severe poison. Although Ye Chenfeng’s divine blood was impervious to all poisons, he estimated that this poison exceeded the scope that divine blood could neutralize. It seemed this Divine Origin Realm indeed was what it claimed to be, containing such potent toxins.
Ye Chenfeng glanced again at the massive ice block beneath Shen Xiutian and said, "Not bad, this Ten Thousand Year Northern Mystical Ice can indeed suppress the poison within his body and prevent his injuries from worsening, which has allowed him to survive until today."
"Which Supreme Elixir do you wish to craft?"
The elixir recipe was provided by Fan Qianrong, and he certainly did not conceal anything from Ye Chenfeng as his senior: "Ye senior, the elixir we wish to craft is the Boundless Origin Shattering Pill."
"Not only can this Supreme Elixir neutralize the poison within Shen Xiutian’s body, but it can also heal his injuries completely."
Speaking thus.
Fan Qianrong directly handed the recipe to Ye Chenfeng.
Taking the recipe, Ye Chenfeng swiftly scanned through it. He also had knowledge of a Supreme Elixir named Boundless Origin Shattering Pill in his mind.
However, the recipe in his mind was much more refined than Fan Qianrong’s version; it might even be considered an upgraded version.
Crafting elixirs according to the proportions in the recipe in his mind would not only enhance the efficacy but also increase the success rate of the elixir.
Since Fan Qianrong chose not to hide anything from Ye Chenfeng, Ye Chenfeng decided to help improve the recipe for Fan Qianrong. He said: "I believe the proportions in this recipe need to be adjusted. Using two blooms of Ten Thousand Year Tianhuo Grass in a single crafting, besides making the alchemical process unstable, what other purpose does it serve? It’s simply superfluous."
"Then there is the Ten Thousand Year Frost Dragon Fruit, a heavenly material treasure aligning with the Ice Attribute. It not only has medicinal efficacy but can also stabilize the alchemical process. The recipe requires two fruits, yet you’ve included only one, increasing the chance of failure."
"Furthermore..."
As Ye Chenfeng pointed out the flaws in the recipe, Fan Qianrong listened more and more attentively. Being a Ninth Grade Alchemist himself, he eventually showed a touch of respect and solemnity on his face.
Under Ye Chenfeng’s discourse, the recipe underwent significant changes.
Fan Qianrong bowed deeply to Ye Chenfeng again: "Ye senior, I have learned immensely; your alchemical prowess is admirable."
Fan Qianrong was quite prideful.
Seeing Fan Qianrong bow his head, Shen Xiuhai smiled, while Shen Tingyu slightly widened her eyes; she knew her master’s temperament best.
Ye Chenfeng said: "Crafting Supreme Elixirs causes great disturbances, necessitating a remote location. Additionally, when Supreme Elixirs form, heavenly punishment descends. Adequate preparation is essential before beginning the process."
Fan Qianrong, as a Ninth Grade Alchemist, was naturally aware of the terrifying nature of the heavenly punishment associated with Supreme Elixirs: "I think it would be best to craft them in the Barbarian Wasteland Mountains. Resources are scarce there, usually no cultivators venture close, and even demon beasts are rarely found in the mountains."
Shen Xiuhai nodded in agreement: "Indeed, that is quite a secluded place, fitting your requirements, old brother."
Ye Chenfeng nodded: "In that case, there’s no time to waste; we must head immediately to the Barbarian Wasteland Mountains. Before crafting, I need to make some preparations in the mountains."
