Only after Lin Langyun watched Chen Yuan return to the Main Peak did he look expectantly at the jade bottle containing Pills in his hand.
"The Senior Brother the Sect Master recruited this time is actually an Alchemist?"
"It's just a pity, the position of Senior Brother isn't one that a weak fellow can hold. The previous Senior Brother at the Divine Transformation Stage even died on the arena, how can your Qi Condensation third layer Cultivation be enough?"
Although Lin Langyun didn't Cultivate diligently, he still had Core Formation Cultivation; otherwise, how could he pick up girls?
As he pondered, Lin Langyun had already opened the jade bottle and saw the twelve flawed Essence Replenishing Pills inside, his breath slightly hitched.
"It seems I was overthinking it. Senior Brother's standard is, at most, just a hobby."
Lin Langyun didn't actually mock Chen Yuan, because Chen Yuan would most likely be gone after the Lower Sect Grand Competition three months later.
The Grand Competition between Lower Sects was said to be a farce, but the many Immortal Sects of the Upper Realm would genuinely give out rewards.
For example, Immortal Artifacts, Spirit Treasures, and all sorts of good things were available, which is why every time the battles were so fierce.
On the Main Peak, Chen Yuan returned to the main hall.
"I didn't expect the rewards this time to be so abundant. The Classic of Chaos Alchemy, Purple Fire Pill Furnace, Purple Extreme Heavenly Fire—these are all what I need."
"Claim, Classic of Chaos Alchemy."
The Classic of Chaos Alchemy contained countless Alchemy methods, Alchemy techniques, Alchemy experiences, Alchemy secret arts, Alchemy divine arts, and Alchemy fire arts.
Instantly, waves of Chaos light enveloped Chen Yuan, and a vast, enormous stream of information wrapped around him. Chen Yuan felt as if his entire mind was about to explode.
After his mind was filled, Chen Yuan felt as if he was swimming in a world made only of Pills, various kinds of Pills that he came to recognize and master.
From the pharmacology of the Pills down to every single fine line on them, Chen Yuan mastered it all.
Chen Yuan opened his eyes in disbelief.
"Is this what it feels like to become stronger?"
"If before I could only refine one furnace of Essence Replenishing Pills, now I can refine seven hundred furnaces."
This was the confidence Chen Yuan gained from mastering the Classic of Chaos Alchemy.
"There are still three hundred years of cultivation left to claim. I'll claim them all now."
Chen Yuan's breathing was slightly rapid. He didn't hesitate to claim the three hundred years of Cultivation feedback.
As three hundred years of Cultivation poured into him, Chen Yuan felt his Cultivation rapidly rising from the inside out, in a stable and robust manner.
Qi Condensation third layer.
Qi Condensation fourth layer.
Qi Condensation eighth layer.
Qi Condensation ninth layer.
Chen Yuan's aura rapidly settled and reached Perfection. In just nine breaths, he directly reached the limit of the Qi Condensation Realm.
In this world, the realms below Immortal are: Qi Condensation, Foundation Establishment, Core Formation, Nascent Soul, Divine Transformation, Mahayana, and Tribulation Transcendence.
Chen Yuan felt the surging power within him, overjoyed.
"This feeling of immense power. It's too exhilarating."
"Now, with my Cultivation combined with the Classic of Chaos Alchemy, I can easily refine all Pills below Earth Rank."
His formidable strength gave Chen Yuan the most ample confidence.
"Next, there's the Purple Fire Pill Furnace and Purple Extreme Heavenly Fire. Claim them all."
As Chen Yuan thought, an enormous Purple Fire Pill Furnace appeared.
The Purple Fire Pill Furnace was covered in ancient purple fire patterns, each strand seemingly a fiercely burning purple fire, giving a direct sensation of scorching heat.
Just looking at it for two glances would make one feel as if they were in an endless purple fire.
Paired with a portion of Purple Extreme Heavenly Fire, this set of Pill Furnaces could easily refine Heavenly Rank Spirit Pills.
Under Chen Yuan's control, the Purple Extreme Heavenly Fire suddenly ignited within the Purple Fire Pill Furnace.
Purple fire burned the heavens, surging and powerful.
"The Purple Extreme Heavenly Fire has been easily mastered by me."
"This feeling is truly exhilarating."
"Next, I'll continue Alchemy."
"However, with my current strength, I'm already capable of refining more Advanced Spirit Pills, which will also yield more rewards."
"But what kind of Pill should I refine?"
"The grades of Pills, below Immortals, are Spirit Pills, divided into Heaven, Earth, Profound, and Yellow Ranks. Among them, the Spirit Gathering Pill, although a Yellow Rank entry-level Spirit Pill, is far from my current limit. I can refine all Pills below Earth Rank."
"But considering the quantity of Spirit Medicine I currently have, I'll refine the Profound Rank Supreme Grade Pill, the Profound Spirit Pill."
Once decided, he began Alchemy immediately.
The Purple Fire Pill Furnace vibrated, hot waves surged, and a vast amount of Origin Qi was released from Chen Yuan's hand. A ball of Purple Extreme Heavenly Fire roared out like a fiery Dragon.
It encircled the entire Purple Fire Pill Furnace, boiling ceaselessly.
One Spirit Medicine after another was precisely controlled by Chen Yuan and sent into the Purple Fire Pill Furnace.
Compared to his previous clueless Alchemy, Chen Yuan's Alchemy technique this time was undoubtedly many times stronger than a Grandmaster of Alchemy.
Purple fire roared, refining the Pills, solidifying their forms, tempering, and Fusion.
In less than a quarter of an hour, an incredibly rich Pill fragrance wafted out from within.
The Profound Rank Supreme Grade Pill, the Profound Spirit Pill, was successfully formed.
This batch yielded seventy-two Pills.
That was sixty more than the previous twelve per furnace.
This was the terrifying improvement from the Classic of Chaos Alchemy.
Coupled with Chen Yuan's significant increase in strength this time, the Pills he refined directly improved by dozens of levels.
"What a pity, only seventy-two. After all, my experience is still too little, considering this is only my second time doing Alchemy."
Chen Yuan glanced at the few remaining Spirit Medicine beside the Purple Fire Pill Furnace, understanding.
"The Spirit Medicine is almost used up. Next, I need to find an opportunity to get some more Spirit Medicine."
"I wonder if selling these Profound Spirit Pills counts as giving them away?"
"I can try later. If not, I'll sell some Pills and give some away too."
Chen Yuan took the seventy-two Profound Spirit Pills and went down the mountain.
Just as he descended the mountain, he happened to run into Lin Langyun, who hadn't gone far yet.
"Hey. You over there, stop."
Lin Langyun's body stiffened. He felt like he had heard that phrase somewhere before, and it felt somewhat familiar.
However, this time, he had just been rejected by a beautiful Junior Sister who disliked his low Cultivation, so he turned around impatiently and looked at Chen Yuan.
"What do you want?"
Chen Yuan said with a cheerful smile.
"Junior Brother, I have a few Pills here. How about I sell them to you?"
Seeing Chen Yuan's handsome face, Lin Langyun immediately remembered that when he first arrived, Chen Yuan had given him a bottle of flawed Essence Replenishing Pills. Even an Alchemy apprentice could refine better than Chen Yuan.
So Lin Langyun's first reaction was naturally unwillingness.
But Chen Yuan's identity as Senior Brother was also present here. If he refused to buy Chen Yuan's Pills, and Chen Yuan said a few words to the Sect Master, then he would be in big trouble.
His reputation was already not very good, and Lin Langyun, with his Core Formation second layer cultivation, was always worried about being noticed by powerful figures within the Sect like the Elders and Sect Master.
So, with the goal of spending money to avert disaster, Lin Langyun forced a smile and nodded.
"Senior Brother, I'll buy your Pills, but please don't sell them to me next time, okay?"
