"Sect Master Su has now reached the Supreme Realm, and our Sect Master is currently unable to produce any pills that would be useful to him. Therefore, we have brought these Body Tempering Pills for Sect Master Su's disciples. It is a small gift, and we hope that Sect Master Su will not find it offensive," Yue Gan said with a smile.
In fact, their sect does have pills that are effective even for those at the Supreme Realm, but there's no need for them.
She, Su Yuewan, the sect leader of a sect that has now fallen on hard times, is not worth them sending such high-grade pills as gifts.
"Thank you for your sect leader's gift." Su Yuewan glanced at the box of Body Tempering Pills indifferently and had the Grand Elder take it from her.
She knew what the Pill Sect meant by sending this box of Body Tempering Pills; it wasn't a genuine gift, but rather a perfunctory gesture.
Although Body Tempering Pills are considered very precious pills by many people, for Pill Masters, they can easily produce a large quantity of such pills.
But now they've only sent ten pills, which clearly shows they don't want to give anything too precious.
Because they felt that Su Yuewan was not worthy of their high-grade elixirs as gifts.
"Is there a second thing?" Su Yuewan narrowed her eyes slightly.
Yue Gan had already stated that he had come for two purposes. The first was to deliver gifts, which was merely a prelude. The second was their true objective.
Seeing Su Yuewan's directness, Yue Gan chuckled and said, "Actually, when I was young, I often heard our sect leader mention that Sect Leader Su's alchemy skills were also superb, on par with our sect leader. And a few days ago, when Sect Leader Su refined a Saint-grade pill, it even triggered a seven-colored pill lightning, which greatly shocked us."
The most shocked by the seven-colored lightning of that day was none other than the Pill Sect.
Only those who actually practice alchemy know how difficult it is.
However, while many people believed that Su Yuewan's alchemy skills had not declined after she emerged from seclusion, and that she had even successfully refined a saint-grade pill, the people of the Pill Sect did not think so.
The appearance of the seven-colored lightning only symbolizes that the sacred-grade pill is about to be refined, but there is still a certain gap between it and the pill being truly formed.
The seven-colored lightning that day appeared for an extremely short time, far less than the time required to successfully refine a true saint-grade pill.
Therefore, they guessed that Su Yuewan must have failed to refine it that day!
"It's nothing. I was just casually practicing that day. I didn't expect it to alarm your sect leader," Su Yuewan said absentmindedly.
She does seem a bit distracted right now.
Because she was wondering what Bai Hao was doing at this moment.
There's less than an hour left until lunchtime; he should start preparing her lunch now.
What could it be?
Scrambled eggs with tomatoes, stewed chicken with mushrooms, braised pork belly, or braised duck?
She wanted to eat everything...
Seeing Su Yuewan's absent-minded appearance, Yue Gan suddenly felt insulted.
He is an elder of the Dan Sect, and an elder who can successfully refine sixth-grade pills. Wherever he goes, he is revered by all.
Even in top-tier sects, their sect leaders treat him with utmost respect; how could Su Yuewan be acting this way now?
They weren't even talking to him properly!
However, he did not lose his temper. Instead, he suppressed his anger and said with a smile, "In fact, not long ago, I was already able to refine saint-grade pills. I came here this time to exchange alchemy skills with Sect Master Su."
That's his real purpose for coming here today.
This is also the goal of the Dan Sect.
They wanted to know if Su Yuewan could really succeed in refining a sacred-grade elixir.
If Su Yuewan is truly capable of refining Saint-grade pills, then the threat she poses to their Pill Sect will be immense.
It should be noted that currently, the only ones with a high probability of successfully refining Saint-grade pills are the sect leader and the Grand Elder of the Pill Sect. Of course, Yue Gan cannot refine Saint-grade pills yet, but only by saying this can he get Su Yuewan to compete with him and thus test Su Yuewan's abilities.
The fact that Lianzhou's sacred-grade pills are the reason why even the sect leaders of first-rate sects treat them with utmost respect is also the reason why Lianzhou's sacred-grade pills are the reason why they treat them with utmost respect.
Because the effects of the sacred pills are so great, one pill is enough to change everything.
If Su Yuewan is also able to refine Saint-grade pills, then it will obviously pose a great challenge to the status of their Pill Sect.
"A contest of alchemy?"
Su Yuewan finally heard it clearly online.
She raised an eyebrow, already guessing what Yue Gan meant.
So this is indeed a test to see what she's capable of.
But sending an elder to try and probe her background? The Dan Sect is underestimating her too much.
A captivating smile appeared on her lips, and just as she was about to speak, a loud roar suddenly came from the backyard.
Immediately following was another deafening thunderclap that resounded throughout the entire Falling Sea Sect.
Before the people inside the hall could figure out what was going on, the people outside were already shouting.
"Danlei! This is Danlei!"
"And this is even colored Dan Lei?!"
"Colored Danlei?"
Upon hearing this, Yue Gan immediately frowned, then rushed out of the sect's main hall and outside.
Sure enough, a small dark cloud had gathered in the sky above the backyard of the Falling Sea Sect, and a bolt of red lightning was flashing within the cloud!
A single-color Danlei means it is not a sacred item.
Colored Dan Lei represents the pinnacle of alchemy techniques.
The red lightning represents the pinnacle of first-grade pills—it's not only saint-grade pills that can represent a person's talent in alchemy.
A single-colored pill lightning is a phenomenon that only occurs when a pill is refined to its ultimate state; otherwise, it is just ordinary white pill lightning.
Now, this red thunderbolt represents the finest grade of first-grade pills.
This single-colored lightning is equivalent to the seven-colored lightning of a sacred-grade elixir.
In a sense, the difficulty of generating a single-colored pill lightning when refining a first-grade pill is the same as that of generating a seven-colored pill lightning when refining a saint-grade pill.
Although Yue Gan could refine sixth-grade pills, he could not refine a single first-grade pill with a single-color pill lightning!
But now, the Falling Sea Sect actually has someone who can refine the One-Color Thunder Pill?
And that person wasn't Su Yuewan?!
Thinking of this, Yue Gan flew directly towards the backyard without hesitation.
He simply couldn't accept this fact!
How could a place like the Fallen Sea Sect possibly produce a second alchemy genius?!
Su Yuewan was also drawn out by the commotion. She watched as the single bolt of lightning in the sky, after brewing for a moment, struck the backyard hard, causing an even louder noise.
She frowned, knowing without a doubt that Bai Hao was refining pills, as he was the only one in the backyard.
"That little rascal was secretly making pills behind my back?!"
Su Yuewan gritted her teeth and immediately leaped away.
