“Yuan Healing Pill, it’s really you…” Bian Lingzhu looked at Qin Yichen with utter shock, her small mouth opening and forgetting to close.
As an Alchemy Master herself, how could she not know the value of the Yuan Healing Pill? She could even imagine that if two medicinal effects could be fused together, could other medicinal effects not be combined as well!?
The key to fusing two different medicinal effects was in the hands of this youth not yet twenty years old before her.
[How did he manage to do it!?] Bian Lingzhu could not understand how a teenager could have such skills and knowledge.
Improving formulas and researching new formulas was something all Eight Millennial Families were doing. For example, Pills like the Qi Recovery Liquid were constantly being improved, but compared to the Qi Recovery Liquid from the Soaring Joy Chamber Of Commerce, those in the hands of the Eight Millennial Families were just trash!
“I can provide your Bian Family with Yuan Healing Pills, but I have one condition.” Qin Yichen said with a faint smile on his lips, looking at her.
“What is it?” Bian Lingzhu took a breath, suppressing the shock in her heart.
“I need… Heavenly Lightning Yuan Stones!”
“Heavenly Lightning Yuan Stones?” Bian Lingzhu looked at him with confusion.
Heavenly Lightning Yuan Stones were extremely dangerous objects. Not to mention their rarity, the most important thing was that Heavenly Lightning Yuan Stones possessed extremely destructive power.
If one kilogram of Heavenly Lightning Yuan Stones got detonated, it could definitely leave not a blade of grass within a ten kilometre radius.
So, Bian Lingzhu even suspected if Qin Yichen wanted to use Heavenly Lightning Yuan Stones to blow up the An Family or the Huyuan Family.
However, that was unrealistic.
The powerful experts of the An Family and Huyuan Family were not to be trifled with.
Moreover, detonating Heavenly Lightning Yuan Stones was actually quite troublesome, and most importantly, the person detonating it would certainly die without doubt.
“What do you want Heavenly Lightning Yuan Stones for?” Because of their rarity, Heavenly Lightning Yuan Stones were not cheap. One kilogram would cost at least a million silver coins!
That was a huge sum, even a Millennial Family could not easily produce such a large amount of money.
“Of course I have my uses for them.” Qin Yichen believed that with the Bian Family’s power, it would not be difficult for them to obtain Heavenly Lightning Yuan Stones.
In this era, Heavenly Lightning Yuan Stones had very low utility. Because of their super destructive nature, people did not even have the courage to research them and uncover their true value.
It was not until later generations that a person known as a ‘madman’ developed the Heavenly Lightning Separation Technique that the utility of Heavenly Lightning Yuan Stones was revealed.
Using Heavenly Lightning Yuan Stones to temper the body allowed one to cultivate that madman’s unique Cultivation Technique… the Heavenly Lightning God Body!
Moreover, after obtaining the Heavenly Lightning God Body, one could even absorb the Yuan Energy inside the Heavenly Lightning Yuan Stones to improve one’s cultivation realm.
Back then, it was because the madman needed something from Qin Yichen that he obtained the Heavenly Lightning Separation Technique and Heavenly Lightning God Body.
If the Bian Family could get him one kilogram of Heavenly Lightning Yuan Stones, absorbing the Yuan Energy inside would give him hope of advancing his Martial Arts cultivation realm to the Spirit Realm!
After all, one kilogram of Heavenly Lightning Yuan Stone contained enough terrifying energy to blow up a ten kilometre radius.
“Of course, I won’t take it for nothing. I will exchange it with your Bian Family for something of equal value.” Qin Yichen also knew that the Bian Family would not provide him with Heavenly Lightning Yuan Stones for no reason.
“I will report your intention to my Family.” Bian Lingzhu could not guarantee that the Elders in her Family would agree to this deal.
“En.” Qin Yichen nodded and reminded her, “Remember, at that time, in the entire Central Province, only your Bian Family will have Yuan Healing Pills.”
…
On another side, the examiner was standing respectfully in front of a desk.
A green haired Elder was seated there, his brows revealing dignity.
“I heard that among this batch of New Apprentices, there is one who didn’t participate in the Alchemy Tower Test?” The Elder spoke, his voice revealing severity. His gaze swept over, making the examiner not dare to raise his head.
Obviously, by the time the examiner arrived here, someone had already come to speak about this matter in advance.
“Yes.” The examiner wiped the sweat on his forehead and explained, “Elder Xiao Lin made a special exception.”
“Xiao Lin?” The green haired Elder was taken aback.
If it was just the examiner, there might still be a possibility of favouritism, but Xiao Lin would definitely not do such a thing.
“How is that person’s talent?” Seeing him ask, the examiner recounted the situation at that time in detail, without any exaggeration.
“Oh, even the Young Master from the Huyuan Family is not as good as him?” The green haired Elder was obviously surprised by this news. His fingers tapped on the desk intermittently, making it impossible to guess what he was thinking.
It was definitely unusual.
He was a boy from a small kingdom. No matter how talented, he should not be able to compare with a genius cultivated with all the resources a Millennial Family could provide.
Those small kingdoms rarely even had Spirit Realm experts, but that youth possessed Spirit Realm Spiritual Energy… This matter was strange in every aspect.
“Go call Xiao Lin to see me.” Finally, the tapping stopped, and the green haired Elder spoke again.
“Yes!” The examiner quickly retreated.
…
At Xiao Lin’s residence.
“Success, it really succeeded…” An ecstatic voice came from his courtyard, causing passersby to frequently look back, not understanding why the usually cold and aloof Elder Xiao Lin would shout so exuberantly.
Inside the courtyard, in a room filled with medicinal fragrance, Xiao Lin held a round Pill in his hand, his face full of excitement.
Originally, after hearing Qin Yichen’s theories, he was half-believing and half-doubting. Thus, he did not expect that it would actually succeed.
“That kid…” Xiao Lin rushed out, preparing to find Qin Yichen, when he happened to meet that examiner.
“Deacon Min wants to see me?” Xiao Lin frowned.
“Yes, the Deacon already knows about Qin Yichen’s matter…” The examiner also had a wry smile on his face.
It was very obvious that it must have been the work of Elder Chixing, who had the backing of the Huyuan Family. Otherwise, the Deacon would not be bothered with such matters.
After all, even if one entered the Alchemy Tower through connections, without sufficient strength, they would be quickly eliminated.
…
“Deacon Min, I think Qin Yichen can represent our Northern Region Alchemy Tower to attend the Alchemy World Summit!” As soon as they met, Xiao Lin said directly to the green haired Elder.
“Let him attend the Alchemy World Summit?” Deacon Min chuckled, “Xiao Lin, have you become confused from obsessing over Alchemy? You want a New Apprentice to represent our Alchemy Tower in that competition!?”
Alchemy World Summit. It was the biggest event in the World of Alchemy. Speaking of which, Deacon Min was actually having a headache over selecting candidates for the Alchemy World Summit.
After all, in the Northern Region Alchemy Tower, they do not have any truly outstanding Apprentices.
Although those Apprentices were considered geniuses in the Northern Region, when taken to the outside world, they did not amount to much. This was mainly because they lacked innovative thinking.
Alchemy Masters who could only refine Pills according to formulas were destined not to achieve great accomplishments.
