Chapter 279
Within the secret realm.
"Murong Feng, you are really cruel to ask Mu Chen to give you the Spirit Tower in exchange for the recipe of the Soul Returning Pill!" Zeng Mo sneered.
Murong Feng laughed and said, "When I said I wanted to do this, you didn't object!"
Murong Feng narrowed his eyes. Previously, he had stood up for Zhuang Yu and dealt with Ye Shi, but then Mu Chen appeared and ruined his reputation.
The people of Central Continent look down on people from outsiders, thinking that they are narrow-minded and like country bumpkins.
Murong Feng and others also looked down on the people of Zhongzhou, thinking that they were blindly arrogant, weak in strength but extremely proud.
Before entering the secret realm, Murong Feng regarded the rumors about Xuanyuan Cheng and Sikong Ming as jokes. Murong Feng had always been full of confidence, and had displayed his prowess in the secret realm countless times, which amazed the people of Zhongzhou.
However, as soon as he entered the secret realm, Murong Feng suffered a great loss at the hands of Mu Chen. He was beaten without any chance to fight back. Even when the five of them joined forces, they were still at a disadvantage against Mu Chen.
Thinking of Mu Chen's arrogant face, Murong Feng felt like he had eaten a fly. Murong Feng had always been known as a genius since he started practicing, and had never suffered such a loss.
Murong Feng narrowed his eyes and said with a somewhat sinister look, "It would be best if he handed it over. If he doesn't, I wonder how he will be able to pretend to have deep feelings for Ye Shi in the future."
Shi Jingtian stood aside with his arms folded. Bai Chenxing seemed to have deep affection for Ye Shi's mother and father.
Back then, he seemed to have misunderstood that Ye Shi's parents were with someone else and had another person's son. Even so, he remained a chaste man for more than ten years for the sake of Ye Shi's parents. If Qu Xinyang could not wake up from this, then... he might become jealous of Muchen because of this.
Zhuang Jin did not participate in the conversation, but watched Murong Yu advance from a distance.
Murong Feng looked at Murong Yu who was advancing and said gently: "Ayu's promotion is almost over! Once Ayu advances successfully, our strength should increase a lot." Murong Feng and Murong Yu are brothers and they have a good relationship.
Jiang Zhaolin nodded, his eyes resting on Shi Jingtian. "Ayu is almost successful, Zeng Mo is almost there too, the only one left is you, Jingtian!"
Shi Jingtian's face suddenly flashed with embarrassment, "I know."
Jiang Zhaolin looked at Shi Jingtian and said with a half-smile, "I'll give you twenty days. Is that enough? If you don't advance after twenty days, we might be at a disadvantage again."
Shi Jingtian clenched his fists, gritted his teeth, and uttered two words, "Enough."
Jiang Zhaolin nodded and said, "That's enough."
Shi Jingtian lowered his head. Although the five of them were all Zhuang Jin's husbands, Murong Feng and the others always intentionally or unintentionally excluded him. If he hadn't always received the least resources, how could he have always fallen behind them? Jiang Zhaolin's expression made him want to tell him directly, "Shi Jingtian, stop holding us back."
Shi Jingtian lowered his head, his eyes filled with sinister intent.
As Ye Shi watched the promotion draw to a close, a hint of unwillingness flashed in his eyes.
"Those who advanced seem to have succeeded." Ye Shi said.
Mu Chen nodded and said, "It should be."
"Why wasn't he struck to death?" Ye Shi said sullenly.
Mu Chen comforted Ye Shi and said, "Alright, don't worry, if it succeeds, it succeeds. It's just one more Wu Zong."
"Mu Chen, you have been in seclusion studying alchemy. Have you come up with any results?" Ye Shi changed the subject and asked Mu Chen.
Mu Chen put his hands behind his back and said confidently, "I think I can give it a try to refine the Golden Sun Pill. He has simulated the refining of the Golden Sun Pill hundreds of times in the Spiritual Pagoda. Before, he always failed, but recently he has succeeded many times.
However, although the spiritual tower simulates alchemy, it is still a simulation after all.
It was still okay if it was a simulation. If it were real, he would not be able to bear to have hundreds of Golden Sun Pill Materials burned to ashes. No wonder there are so few level eight alchemists.
The person who attempted to refine the Nine Yang Burning Heaven Pill was a ninth-level alchemist. Although Mu Chen only learned a small part of that person's knowledge, he still benefited a lot from it. The confusion he had previously encountered in refining the pill was easily solved.
Ye Shi nodded and said happily, "That's great."
Mu Chen looked at Ye Shi and said, "Perhaps, we don't have to waste time and energy searching for spiritual herbs and spiritual objects in secret realms. I'll refine some more pills, and we can exchange them for them."
Ye Shi thought for a moment and said, "That's fine, but it's best to refine the Golden Sun Pill first. That way, we can attract everyone's attention."
Mu Chen nodded and said, "I think so too."
The Spirit Tower has infinite uses. When refining a seventh-level elixir in it, the Spirit Tower can help conceal the phenomenon of the seventh-level elixir being successful. However, this cannot be done for an eighth-level elixir.
There is a huge difference between eighth-level elixirs and seventh-level elixirs. If you refine an eighth-level elixir in a spirit tower, it will cause the spirit tower to be destroyed, even if the Golden Sun Pill is only a low-level eighth-level elixir.
Outside the secret realm.
Wu Feng looked at Bai Chenxing with a strange expression, and said hesitantly: "Chenxing, the Golden Sun Pill seems to be an eighth-level pill."
Bai Chenxing nodded and said, "It should be."
Wu Feng blinked and said, "So, Mu Chen is going to refine the eighth-level elixir?"
Bai Chenxing frowned, thought for a moment and said, "That should be it."
"Has his level reached this point?" Wu Feng said with a strange expression.
Bai Chenxing shook his head and said, "I don't know. Before entering the secret realm, he should have been only a seventh-level alchemist."
Wu Feng looked at Mu Chen on the screen and muttered, "Is Mu Chen being too hasty?"
Level eight spiritual herbs are very rare. If Mu Chen destroys them in one go, it would be a waste of resources.
However, every eighth-level alchemist will waste countless eighth-level spiritual herbs before becoming an eighth-level alchemist, which is unavoidable.
For Yu Muchen, this Golden Sun Fruit should be the first eighth-level spiritual medicine to be wasted.
An ordinary seventh-level alchemist who wants to become an eighth-level alchemist will spend a lot of money to hire an eighth-level alchemist for guidance. It is the first time that Wu Feng has seen someone like Mu Chen, who thinks he is almost ready and rashly refines eighth-level pills.
Danta gathers the best alchemists in the world. There are only a few level eight alchemists on his side. Mu Chen is still so young. If he can really refine level eight pills, the senior level seven alchemist in Danta will probably vomit blood.
Wu Feng looked towards the alchemists at Danta, and saw dozens of them with their sleeves gathered up, their faces full of mockery, as if Mu Chen was overestimating his own abilities.
Mu Chen chose an empty mountain to refine the Golden Sun Pill.
Ye Shi set up a series of restrictions around Mu Chen's location to prevent him from being disturbed while he was refining the elixir.
Outside the secret realm.
"President Ge, judging from Mu Chen's attitude, he is going to refine an eighth-level elixir, right?" asked a cultivator next to Ge Yi.
road.
Ge Yi nodded and said, "That should be the case. With Mu Chen's level, refining a seventh-level advanced elixir is not a problem at all. There is no need to mobilize a large force."
"President Ge, do you think Mu Chen can refine the eighth-level Golden Sun Pill?"
Ge Yi smiled dryly, stroked his beard, and said: "It's hard to say, Mr. Mu, a young talent, maybe you can do things that ordinary people can't do." Ge Yi said this, with a hint of disapproval in his eyes.
"Mr. Mu, even though he is a genius, he has only just entered the Martial Sect and is already taking the risk of refining an eighth-level elixir. It's really a bit too hasty."
"What a pity for the Golden Sun Fruit, an eighth-level spiritual fruit. It's a rare commodity."
In the secret realm, Mu Chen took out the alchemy furnace, closed his eyes, and made final preparations for alchemy.
Ye Shi was extremely patient. He surrounded Muchen and set up a series of restrictions.
Mu Chen, who was standing in front of the alchemy furnace, suddenly opened his eyes and began to process various spiritual herbs. Mu Chen's movements were smooth and flowing, giving people a sense of naturalness.
Mu Chen didn't know that outside the secret realm, there were countless people staring at him.
Generally, seventh-level alchemists would avoid others when refining pills. For someone like Mu Chen, due to special circumstances, the entire alchemy process is rarely exposed.
Mu Chen's alchemy skills had long been famous. Before Mu Chen started refining the elixir, the news that Mu Chen was going to refine the eighth-level elixir spread at lightning speed. Although not many alchemists thought that Mu's exhibition would be a success, there were still countless alchemists who rushed to watch the excitement.
Wu Feng looked at Mu Chen in the image with her eyes narrowed. Although she didn't know much about alchemy, she suddenly had a feeling that Mu Chen was likely to succeed.
Because Muchen's expression was calm and composed, and his hands were steady, many level seven alchemists who tried to refine level eight pills failed due to nervousness.
Wu Feng looked towards the Alchemy Tower where the alchemists gathered. At this moment, the Alchemy Tower was gathering countless alchemists, and the number was still increasing.
Mu Chen's soul power spun madly, and finally melted all the spiritual materials into pills.
Ge Yi stared at Mu Chen intently, the contempt on his face had long since disappeared.
This is totally unacceptable. This should be Mu Chen's first time refining an eighth-level pill. However, his movements are so refined that it doesn't look like it's his first time at all.
Ge Yi didn't know that this was not Mu Chen's "first time" to refine the elixir. If he hadn't conducted hundreds of simulations in the Spirit Tower, there was a 100% chance that Mu Chen would fail in this attempt.
In the secret realm, Mu Chen's eyes turned silver, and his soul power was running as fast as a whirlwind.
"The Hundred-Turn Alchemy Method, this guy..." Ge Yi frowned. Mu Chen actually mastered such a difficult alchemy method. He doesn't look like a 20-year-old boy at all!
Wu Feng looked at the people in the Alchemist Tower, their faces filled with amazement, shock, and disbelief. He then looked at Muchen's expression, adding a touch of caution. "Could this guy really succeed?"
"It's time to condense the pill." said a seventh-level cultivator from Danta.
In the secret realm, Mu Chen suddenly opened his eyes wide, and a huge amount of soul power surged out. A furnace of elixir liquid was divided into six parts, gradually gathering into the prototype of the elixir.
Mu Chen's eyes turned golden, and six balls of elixir were continuously compressed.
Mu Chen was refining the elixir here when thunderclouds suddenly gathered in the distance.
Ye Shi looked at the thunderclouds in the distance and felt depressed. There were thunderclouds yesterday and there are thunderclouds today. It seems that there will be another martial master in the secret realm.
The more martial masters there are in the secret realm, the more trouble there will be. I hope this one is not from Zhuang Jin's side.
Ye Shi withdrew his gaze and focused on Mu Chen who was refining the elixir.
On Zhuang Jin's side, Shi Jingtian looked at Zeng Mo who had advanced, and a deep jealousy flashed in his eyes. Mu Keyu advanced, Zeng Mo advanced, and now he was the only one left. The feeling of being suppressed by everyone and unable to breathe was not good at all. Shi Jingtian only felt extremely depressed in his heart.
