Ye Chenfeng faced immense heavenly might as he refined a Supreme Elixir, with massive red pillars and blood-red dragons threatening to destroy him. Though his ninety-nine energy barriers were shattered, Fan Qianrong and the others intervened, barely destroying the final two dragons. With the heavenly might subsiding, Ye Chenfeng successfully refined five Supreme Elixirs.

When Ye Chenfeng successfully refined the Wuji Poyuan Pills.

Many places throughout the entire Middle Realm all noticed the commotion over at the Barbarian Wasteland Mountains.

For a time, all the major powerhouses of the Middle Realm stepped into the air, gazing from afar in the direction of the Barbarian Wasteland Mountains.

Among these powerhouses, there was no lack of those with viciously sharp eyesight; they could clearly judge that a Supreme Elixir had just been born.

But since when had a supreme Alchemist appeared in the Middle Realm?

Thus, the various powerhouses all headed toward the Barbarian Wasteland Mountains to investigate.

And on top of a high mountain some distance away from the Barbarian Wasteland Mountains, one white and one black figure stood at the summit.

They gazed from afar toward the direction of the Barbarian Wasteland Mountains.

The White Shadow Person said, "Looks like that little guy has come to the Middle Realm as well. The moment he gets here, he stirs up such a huge commotion—sure enough, that’s his style. Judging by that little guy’s personality, he should already have left. He definitely wouldn’t stay in place waiting for others to arrive."

The black shadow also said, "I told you that kid doesn’t need us worrying about him. Along this journey, how many brushes with life and death has he gone through? He’s completely transformed into someone who can stand on his own, no longer that brat who had just set foot on the path of cultivation. Let him wander around on his own. Once we get to the Upper World, we’ll definitely run into him."

...

Just as Old Bai Wu Fengxian had guessed.

After Ye Chenfeng successfully refined the Wuji Poyuan Pills, he said to Fan Qianrong and the others, "Let’s leave here first."

Fan Qianrong, Shen Xiuhai, and Long Gaoyuan’s injuries weren’t very serious, and they strongly agreed with Ye Chenfeng’s decision. The Barbarian Wasteland Mountains were probably already being watched by many Middle Realm powerhouses.

They left the Barbarian Wasteland Mountains at the fastest speed and without incident.

Under Shen Xiuhai’s arrangements, they relied on the Teleportation Array to return to the Shen Residence; no one knew that the Alchemist who had refined the Supreme Elixirs was inside the Shen Residence.

After returning to the Shen Residence.

They went into that secret room, and Ye Chenfeng took out the five Wuji Poyuan Pills he had refined; he intended to give all of them to Shen Xiuhai.

Seeing this, Shen Xiuhai hurriedly said, "Old brother, this won’t do! You helped us refine Supreme Elixirs; that’s already a heaven-sized favor. I only need one Wuji Poyuan Pill."

Shen Xiuhai insisted again and again, and in the end Ye Chenfeng could only drop the matter.

Seeing Fan Qianrong to the side, wanting to speak but holding back, Ye Chenfeng understood what this old man was thinking. He casually handed him a Wuji Poyuan Pill.

Fan Qianrong had been wondering how to open his mouth; he wanted to take a Wuji Poyuan Pill to study it. Seeing Ye Chenfeng hand one over, he hurriedly said, "Little friend, thank you so much."

He didn’t get overly sentimental and directly put away this Wuji Poyuan Pill, then he said, "Little friend, this old man has an unreasonable request. I wonder if little friend would agree?"

Ye Chenfeng was quite fond of Fan Qianrong. "Speak."

Under the surprised gazes of the others, Fan Qianrong actually directly knelt toward Ye Chenfeng. "Little friend, I beg you to accept me as your disciple."

Fan Qianrong’s kneeling was something Ye Chenfeng hadn’t expected at all.

Seeing the old man’s sincere expression, and since he’d already knelt, Ye Chenfeng couldn’t very well refuse. "If you have any doubts in Alchemy, I can help you with them. As for formally taking me as your master, that won’t be necessary."

At these words.

Fan Qianrong became even more respectful. "A teacher is one who propagates the Dao, imparts skills, and resolves doubts."

"Since little friend is willing to resolve my doubts, then naturally you are my master."

"Master above, please accept this disciple’s bow."

As he spoke.

That stubborn old man Fan Qianrong really did kowtow to Ye Chenfeng.

With no other choice, Ye Chenfeng could only accept a disciple like Fan Qianrong. "Alright, I’ll take you as my disciple then."

Hearing Ye Chenfeng’s definite answer, Fan Qianrong became even more excited. He shouted at Shen Tingyu, who was standing dumbfounded to the side, "Tingyu, hurry up and pay respects to your grandmaster."

Shen Tingyu couldn’t process it at all. How had her master suddenly taken Ye Chenfeng as his master? And Ye Chenfeng had become her grandmaster?

Ye Chenfeng waved his hand and said, "That won’t be necessary, right?"

Fan Qianrong insisted, "Master, this is a matter of proper etiquette. If Tingyu is unwilling to pay respects to you, then I’ll expel her from my tutelage right now."

The dazed Shen Tingyu heard her master’s words, and her mind instantly went blank. She involuntarily knelt and paid respects. "This disciple’s disciple pays respects to Grandmaster."

This made Ye Chenfeng rub his nose with a wry smile. "All of you, get up."

Off to the side, Shen Xiuhai saw Fan Qianrong’s actions. Knowing this old friend’s personality, he didn’t find it strange. Holding a Wuji Poyuan Pill in his hand, he walked over to the unconscious Shen Xiutian, pried open his mouth, and stuffed the pill in.

The Wuji Poyuan Pill didn’t need to be chewed. After being put into Shen Xiutian’s mouth, it immediately turned into a stream of liquid, flowing down his throat on its own and into his stomach.

As the Wuji Poyuan Pill slowly took effect, they saw a surge of Spiritual Energy fluctuations rise from the unconscious Shen Xiutian. Dense black impurities were excreted from all the pores of his body—this was the poison within him.

And his damaged internal organs, under the medicinal power of the pill, were being nourished, recovering at an extremely fast speed.

Watching the changes in Shen Xiutian’s body, Shen Xiuhai couldn’t suppress the joy on his face. After all, his elder brother Shen Xiutian possessed late-stage Divine Emperor Realm strength.

As time slowly passed.

The medicinal power completely spread through Shen Xiutian’s body; his complexion grew ruddier and ruddier, and the breath from his nose gradually stabilized.

His entire body was already covered by the black impurities. These black impurities hardened quickly, forming a black shell on the surface of his body.

His fingers suddenly trembled.

Slowly, his body also began to move.

He stood up in his entirety.

"Crack! Crack! Crack!"

"Bang!"

As Shen Xiutian stood up, his body gave a shake, and cracks appeared on the shell covering his body.

The entire black shell shattered into pieces and fell off.

Having just woken up, Shen Xiutian’s thoughts were very muddled; he needed to carefully sort them out, since he had been unconscious for so many years.

After he recalled what had happened before he blacked out, he looked at Shen Xiuhai and asked, "Xiuhai, what’s going on? How am I still alive? And my body has recovered? How is this possible?"

Shen Xiuhai then roughly recounted how Ye Chenfeng had saved him, looking at his elder brother with a face full of excitement.

After stabilizing his emotions, he asked, "Big brother, what exactly did you encounter in the Upper World back then?"
