Chen Tianwen stared at the prescription for a full hour.

This also shows Chen Tianwen's powerful spiritual sense. If it were an ordinary person, it would probably take several days to read through all these pill formulas.

Although Chen Tianwen's simplification principles are now sealed, he can still simplify complex formulas based on his experience in simplifying countless pill formulas.

The original recipe required 30,000 kinds of immortal herbs, but after Chen Tianwen's continuous screening, only more than 300 kinds of immortal herbs remained.

Chen Tianwen frowned; this was definitely not the limit of simplification.

Chen Tianwen believed that if he applied the simplification principle, this pill formula could be simplified to only require a few dozen kinds of immortal herbs!

Chen Tianwen silently calculated that with over three hundred kinds of immortal herbs, it would take him at least three days to form a pill.

Although this speed was already astonishing, Chen Tianwen was still not satisfied.

"There must be something I haven't noticed!"

Chen Tianwen thought to himself, and then continued to study the pill formula.

Xu Tian looked at the silent Chen Tianwen and didn't interrupt him.

Although Xu Tian did not understand the art of alchemy, he knew that a celestial alchemist needed to carefully deduce a new formula before attempting to use it.

Xu Tian obtained this prescription from an ancient book.

The recipe for a celestial pill of the fifth rank is something that Xu Tian, ​​who is only at the level of a Great Luo Golden Immortal, cannot use yet. However, taking out this recipe is enough to test Chen Tianwen's true ability in alchemy!

Xu Tian was confident that Chen Tianwen had never seen this elixir before.

If Chen Tianwen can successfully refine it, then Chen Tianwen will be a true Pill King!

At that time, Chen Tianwen's status will definitely rise, and everyone will have to be careful.

Three hours later, Chen Tianwen slowly exhaled a breath of stale air, looked at Xu Tian, ​​and said:

"Five hours! The pill can be formed in five hours!"

Chen Tianwen's voice was not loud, but it was extremely firm.

Xu Tian was stunned for a moment, clearly surprised that Chen Tianwen was so confident in his success.

And it only takes five hours!

Although Xu Tian was extremely surprised, he didn't say anything to express his doubts. Instead, he said very politely:

"Then I'll have to trouble you, young master!"

Xu Tian had no choice but to treat an alchemist who was very likely a Pill King with utmost respect.

Without further ado, Chen Tianwen took out the alchemy cauldron and began to put various immortal herbs into it.

After Chen Tianwen continuously simplified the formula, the number of medicinal herbs required for the pill was reduced to just over one hundred!

This was also the first time Chen Tianwen had simplified something using his own abilities.

Although the effect was not yet comparable to the true simplification principle, Chen Tianwen felt a small sense of pride!

If one can simplify things with their own eyesight, then it proves that they have vaguely grasped the essence of alchemy.

Although this improvement was intangible, it laid a solid foundation for Chen Tianwen's future ascension to godhood!

Chen Tianwen kept throwing immortal herbs into the immortal cauldron, a technique that made Xu Tian frown.

Xu Tian knew that Chen Tianwen had used this same alchemy method to refine the fourth-grade supreme immortal pill, Qiankun Yuandan, in front of the Pill King's Mansion!

Therefore, Xu Tian wasn't particularly surprised; he just didn't quite understand Chen Tian's method of alchemy.

Outside the inn in the east of the city, many people arrived after hearing the news.

Now everyone knows that City Lord Xu Tian personally went in to test Chen Tianwen's alchemy skills.

Once Xu Tian comes out, Chen Tianwen's alchemy skills will become self-evident.

Of course, some people have already prepared the immortal herbs, ready to rush in as soon as Xu Tian comes out and ask Chen Tian for the pills and medicine!

Although the area outside the inn was crowded, no one spoke; they simply waited quietly.

Several hours later, someone finally couldn't hold back any longer and spoke up:

"Could something have gone wrong? It's been so long!"

"Refining elixirs always takes months, it's only been a few hours, what's the rush!"

"Fellow Daoist, you may not know this, but this alchemy master refined a top-grade fourth-rank immortal pill within an hour! His alchemy speed is beyond our comprehension."

"What? It only took one hour to refine a top-grade fourth-rank immortal pill?"

Upon hearing the introduction, those who were not familiar with Chen Tianwen exclaimed in surprise.

However, after a moment of surprise, someone quickly reacted and said:

"It only takes an hour to refine a top-grade fourth-rank immortal pill, so it's been going on for so long now. Does that mean the city lord is trying to refine a fifth-rank immortal pill?"

"Impossible..." Someone was about to retort, but the words caught in their throat.

If it weren't a fifth-grade immortal pill, how could it possibly take so long?

For a moment, everyone fell silent!

At the same time, everyone felt a little excited.

If it really is a Grade 5 Immortal Pill, then these people will have the honor of witnessing the birth of another Pill King!

Everyone remained silent, but no one was in a hurry. Such a moment of witnessing history was a rare and precious opportunity.

Meanwhile, the people from the Danwang Mansion, who were hidden among the crowd, quietly left the crowd and went back to report!

Xu Tian walked out of the inn, expressionless, silently watching the sea of ​​people.

The onlookers wanted to ask about the outcome, but fearing Xu Tian's imposing presence, they dared not speak.

However, many people speculated that Xu Tian's expression meant that Chen Tianwen had failed to refine it.

Otherwise, who wouldn't be excited to obtain a fifth-grade immortal pill?

Thinking of this, these people couldn't help but shake their heads.

The Pill King is not someone who appears so easily!

A moment later, the crowd made a commotion and cleared a path.

An elderly man with white hair walked over, supported by Wang Kun.

"King Qi Dan, it's actually King Qi Dan himself who has come!"

Upon seeing who it was, gasps of surprise rippled through the crowd, but they quickly quieted down.

Although King Qi Dan was being supported by Wang Kun and looked frail, no one doubted the terrifying strength contained within his body!

Because King Qi Dan was not only a fifth-grade alchemist, but also a powerful cultivator in the early stages of the Immortal Lord realm.

Even Xu Tian quickened his pace upon seeing King Qi Dan arrive and respectfully bowed to him.

King Qi Dan smiled slightly, his face showing a kind expression, and said:

"Lord Xu, there's no need for such formalities."

Xu Tian's expression was respectful, not only because of King Qi Dan's status, but also because of King Qi Dan's strength.

King Qi Dan didn't waste any words and spoke to Xu Tian:

"I heard that City Lord Xu personally tested that alchemy master's skills. I wonder what the result was?"

Xu Tian dared not hide anything and directly took out a pill box from his pocket and respectfully handed it to Qi Danwang!
