Under Chairman Wen’s penetrating gaze, Qin Yichen felt somewhat awkward. He rubbed the bridge of his nose and smiled sheepishly.
For a moment, he had become carried away with pride, completely forgetting that a Chairman of the Alchemy Guild still stood beside him, watching.
Fortunately, Chairman Wen seemed to have sensed something, but chose not to speak of it.
As long as Qin Yichen could save his old friend, such matters were of no concern to him whatsoever.
Before long, Qin Yichen witnessed firsthand the formidable resources of the Gathering Space Tower.
He had written down nearly a hundred types of High Grade medicinal herbs. Yet the people of the Gathering Space Tower required less than half an hour to gather them all.
“Prepare an Alchemy Room for me. During my Pill refinement, no one is to disturb me under any circumstances.” Qin Yichen spoke with an air of solemn importance.
The people of the Gathering Space Tower naturally would not refuse such a request, nor did they find it excessive.
“Oh, my friend is still waiting for me downstairs. Might it be possible to bring her up?”
Just as he was about to step into the Alchemy Room, Qin Yichen turned his head back and addressed a Gathering Space Tower expert.
“That is naturally not a problem.” The man paused briefly, then accompanied Qin Yichen to fetch Long Qingyao to the top floor.
On the top floor, after receiving such elite treatment, Long Qingyao was utterly stunned, completely at a loss for words.
All this time, she had merely heard rumours about Qin Yichen, but now she was witnessing a miracle unfold before her very eyes.
The Gathering Space Tower.
It was a Force even more formidable than the Feng Family.
Yet within such a short span of time, the Gathering Space Tower had treated Qin Yichen as an honoured guest, and even she was receiving VIP treatment.
She could not fathom how Qin Yichen had accomplished this.
This could only be described as a miracle.
After settling Long Qingyao comfortably, Qin Yichen entered the Alchemy Room. Once he went inside, the experts from the Gathering Space Tower and Chairman Wen waited outside the door.
“Wow, this is truly amazing.”
“Oh? This one still has all its roots intact!”
Inside the Alchemy Room, Qin Yichen was not arduously refining Pills as they imagined. Instead, he was stuffing those precious medicinal herbs one by one into the Small Pill Furnace.
He had been worrying about lacking medicinal herbs to repair the interior of his Small Pill Furnace; this was the perfect opportunity that had presented itself.
Among these nearly hundred types of High Grade medicinal herbs, while not all were Medicine King Grade, there were over thirty types almost close to the Medicine King Grade, and more than ten that were actual Medicine King Grade.
This was already remarkably substantial.
A rough calculation revealed that the value of these medicinal herbs amounted to at least several hundred million gold coins!
When he observed that the small Pill Furnace had been repaired sufficiently, Qin Yichen casually selected some medicinal herbs from the medicine rack in the Alchemy Room and began refining.
Approximately half an hour later, Qin Yichen emerged from the Alchemy Room.
He was concerned that if time dragged on too long, Master Chang might suffer an unexpected complication.
However, when he produced the Pill, Chairman Wen drew in a sharp breath of cold air. “A Level Seven Fifth Grade Pill!?”
With a single glance, he discerned the Grade and Level of the Pill that Qin Yichen had refined.
Although it was merely a Fifth Grade Pill, it had reached a terrifying Level Seven standard.
Even for Chairman Wen, the finest Fifth Grade Pill he had ever refined had only reached the Level Six at most.
Yet the Pill Qin Yichen had refined surpassed his by an entire Level.
One should not underestimate this single Level.
For any Pill, once it reached the Level Five standard, each additional Level represented a significant threshold.
This particularly confirmed one crucial point: Qin Yichen’s Spiritual Energy mastery exceeded that of his own!
Therefore, upon seeing this Pill, Chairman Wen’s lips curved with a bitter smile.
How absurd that he had actually suggested Qin Yichen follow him. Looking at the situation now, who should follow whom remained very much uncertain.
The experts of the Gathering Space Tower, however, brightened considerably.
Originally, a trace of lingering concern had remained in their hearts. When they had gone to prepare the medicinal herbs, they had specifically consulted with the Branch Master behind the curtain.
Now, this Pill confirmed Qin Yichen’s own capabilities!
“Master, please!” Even his form of address towards Qin Yichen changed. He now addressed him directly as Master.
Anyone capable of refining a Level Seven Fifth Grade Pill absolutely deserved such a title!
Returning once more to Master Chang’s chamber, Qin Yichen placed the refined Pill into Master Chang’s mouth. Then, placing his palm on Master Chang’s wrist, he imperceptibly began actively absorbing the special energy within Master Chang’s body.
In truth, it was quite obvious. The Pill he had refined possessed no particular efficacy, merely some wound-healing effects. The true performance lay in the hand he had placed on Master Chang’s wrist.
As that special energy was extracted, Master Chang’s condition visibly improved.
First, his previously tightly furrowed brow relaxed.
This indicated that the pain in his body had been alleviated, perhaps even eliminated entirely.
“Inconceivable, simply inconceivable…” During this process, Chairman Wen had already exclaimed ‘inconceivable’ countless times.
The Branch Master, who had been sitting behind the curtain suppressing his injuries all this while, could no longer remain seated. He stood up and emerged from behind the curtain.
When the Gathering Space Tower experts moved to bow to him, he prevented it.
He approached Qin Yichen from behind and gazed at Master Chang on the bed, his eyes brightening.
Only those who personally suffered this affliction could truly comprehend the terrifying nature of that special energy.
Even though he possessed cultivation at the Peak Stage Martial Emperor Realm, he still had absolutely no way of dealing with that special energy. He could only allow those terrifying energies to rampage wildly through his body.
At this moment, he could sense that the special energy within Master Chang’s body was being stripped away.
After confirming that the last trace of that special energy had been absorbed, Qin Yichen released a long breath and stood up. Turning around, he immediately saw the Branch Master.
Though somewhat surprised, he was not particularly shocked.
“How is it?” The Branch Master asked, his breathing somewhat rapid.
He understood clearly that if that energy could not be removed, his death would be inevitable!
“It has already been cleared.”
Even facing this great personage, Qin Yichen’s expression remained unchanged.
“Oh.” The Branch Master’s heart was stirred. He instinctively moved to confirm Master Chang’s condition.
“Wait, Branch Master, you wouldn’t be intending to harm him, would you?”
Qin Yichen, however, blocked his path, preventing him.
Only then did the Branch Master realise his own condition. He retreated several steps, allowing the other Gathering Space Tower experts to step forward and confirm.
A moment later—
“It truly has been cleared!”
Someone from the Gathering Space Tower exclaimed, reporting to the Branch Master. “Although Master Chang’s internal injuries have not completely healed, there are no other issues whatsoever!”
“Thank Heaven! Brother Chang has finally escaped this calamity!” Upon learning the result, Chairman Wen displayed visible emotion.
“Please, Master Qin, please heal the injuries of our Branch Master…”
Members of the Gathering Space Tower actually knelt on one knee before Qin Yichen, making this request.
“Of course, no worries!” Qin Yichen would naturally not refuse such an opportunity to harvest medicinal herbs once again.
