Chapter 904 The Beihan Region Was Stirred
Forming a pill with a thought!
The cultivators on Planet Tianhuang hadn’t even heard of such a technique, let alone seeing it! Thousands of people in the entire State of Ancient Medicine were shocked as they stared at the screen in the sky.
Many seniors of the Alchemy Guild were dumbfounded.
Situ Cheng also widened his eyes and looked at the pill in Chen Fan’s hands. It was black and was as large as a kid’s arm. It was crystal clear like the brightest black diamond.
“This… This is impossible!”
Situ Cheng jumped and said furiously after a while, “This is definitely not a Recuperating Pill of Three Souls. It’s just an illusion. Not even Alchemy King or Heavenly Lord of Ancient Medicine were able to make a Treasure Pill so easily!”
Perfected Cultivator Wei Huang, Elder Chenyan and Hu Xiao were stunned at first and they responded after hearing this.
Right!
People might have believed it if Chen Fan made a normal pill in a few seconds. After all, it wasn’t difficult for Alchemy Grandmasters to form a pill within seven steps, but the Recuperating Pill of Three Souls was an inferior-grade Treasure Pill and it wasn’t that easy to make.
Even the best Heavenly Alchemist would need two hours to complete the entire process.
Making a pill with a thought was like a myth!
“Right, not even Elixir Lord is able to do this. You must have cheated and cast a spell!” Elder Situ said.
Then, a lot of disciples of the Alchemy Guild stepped forward.
They didn’t believe it either, and thought Chen Fan had cheated.
In the end, the entire State of Ancient Medicine was in awe. Even though they didn’t believe that Chen Fan would cheat in such an important battle, forming a pill with a thought didn’t seem possible either.
This had completely gone beyond the imagination of all the cultivators on Planet Tianhuang.
Even Qiao Qiao was doubtful about it. After all, she had also learned about alchemy and she knew how difficult it was to make a Treasure Pill.
“Did you say I cheated?”
Chen Fan narrowed his eyes.
“Yes, you must have used an illusion spell. This is all some kind of illusion. The pill in your hand is too perfect. It could be a supreme-grade or even an unequaled-grade pill, which is not something an Alchemy Grandmaster like you can make!”
Situ Cheng started to sound relieved and he looked at Chen Fan as if he had debunked him.
“All right, let the elders see if it’s real or not,” Chen Fan said calmly.
In front of countless cultivators, Elder Chenyan took the Treasure Pill and a few other elders gathered around him. Out of everyone’s expectation, those elders became terrified in the end.
“What’s going on?”
Situ Cheng was confident at first, but then he became anxious.
“After careful evaluation, we’re sure that this… is indeed a ‘Recuperating Pill of Three Souls’ and it’s an unequaled-grade pill!” Elder Chenyan said.
Everyone was startled!
Jiang Han and Yan Wuw.a.n.g also jumped up and Situ Cheng thought he had misheard. It should be just an illusion. How would it be real? Was there any problem with the eyes of the elders?
“It’s a real Recuperating Pill of Three Souls? Seriously?”
Wu Qinyan’s eyes popped out.
The acknowledgement from the elders dashed everyone’s last hope.
The entire State of Ancient Medicine went silent immediately and not a soul could even utter a word. Elder Situ looked like he had eaten a fly and the disciples of the Alchemy Guild were speechless.
Only Qiao Qiao jumped and cheered.
“He won! He won! Brother finally won!”
As the old man listened to his granddaughter, he felt like everything he knew about alchemy had been wrecked.
w.a.n.g Xuanfeng glanced at his friend.
“Brother Hu, looks like you’re wrong this time. Perfected Cultivator Azure Wood might even be more powerful than Elixir Lord.”
Hu Xiao remained silent.
“This isn’t real… This isn’t real.”
Situ Cheng knelt down after hearing the result.
He looked at Chen Fan with teary eyes like a gambler who had just lost. “Chen Beixuan, you must have made this Treasure Pill beforehand and took it out from a Dharma Treasure when I wasn’t looking…”
“That’s enough!” someone suddenly shouted.
Everyone looked up.
They saw Xu Yuan coming down to Situ Cheng and said, “Situ Cheng, you’ve let me down.”
“The platform we used for the battle was made by five of our elders; all treasures and Dharma Spells are forbidden. Besides, who can cheat in front of Master Xuanfeng, Master Xiao and so many elders?”
“The Alchemy Guild is willing to concede defeat.”
Then.
Xu Yuan bowed to Chen Fan.
“Alchemist Chen, the Alchemy Guild… lost!”
Situ Cheng fell on the ground and his face was extremely pale, just like a dead person. A lot of elders and disciples even looked as if somebody had died.
Everyone went silent.
It was an unimaginable result. Situ Cheng had lost so unbelievably?
However, thinking of how Chen Fan had made a pill with a thought, they realized that not even the other elders nor the Guild Master would have been able to win, let alone Situ Cheng!
“I told you I’d give you five chances. This is only the first battle. I’ll wait for the coming four,” Chen Fan said and left.
The people of the Alchemy Guild looked at one another with a pale face.
“Who can win against such an Alchemy Art? It’d be the same even if we have four hundred battles. It’s like bringing a knife to a gunfight.”
The old man in grey robe sighed.
The news about Chen Fan defeating Situ Cheng were spread across dozens of cities in the State of Ancient Medicine and even started to go out of the state.
The defeat of Situ Cheng wasn’t surprising. After all, he had just become a Grandmaster; he wasn’t a top alchemist yet.
But the way he lost was unbelievable and unimaginable.
“Making a pill with a thought? It’s definitely fake!”
Many people couldn’t believe it.
They thought that what had happened in Medicine City was just a rumor.
“Baisu, tell me if it’s true or not.”
The Ancestral Patriarch of the Wu family sent a message to Wu Baisu to confirm the news. After all, this was unbelievable and a cultivator who had almost become a Heavenly Lord such as him was also doubtful.
“It’s true, Ancestral Patriarch. My sister and I saw it with our own eyes. She even tried to recruit Alchemist Chen to the Wu family,” Wu Baisu replied.
“Tell Qinyan to do anything to rope Alchemist Chen in. We can even let Qinyan marry him,” the Ancestral Patriarch of the Wu family said.
“Ancestral Patriarch, you’re too generous. Qinyan is the most outstanding alchemist of the Wu family in the last few centuries and she also stands out among her peers. How can we just let her marry some early-stage Golden Core Cultivator?”
Wu Baisu was a bit shocked.
The Ancestral Patriarch of the Wu family interrupted, “Hm, you’re too young. You don’t know what it means to be able to form a pill with a thought.”
He looked up and said, “It’s a technique that belongs in myths. Only the ancient Alchemy Saints and Medicine G.o.ds could form a peerless Treasure Pill so quickly.”
“But Chen Beixuan is such a young man. Would he really be a Medicine G.o.d?”
The Ancestral Patriarch of the Wu family couldn’t believe it.
Such a conversation…
It wasn’t only held in the Wu family mansion.
The Hu family, the w.a.n.g family and the Ethereal Heavenly Sect also sent similar messages, but their thoughts were completely different from those of the Ancestral Patriarch of the Wu family. Many Heavenly Lord Families thought that this might just be an accident.
They wouldn’t regard Chen Fan as a Medicine G.o.d or Alchemy Saint just because he had made a pill with a thought once.
“There aren’t even many Heavenly Alchemists on modern day Planet Tianhuang. If he really were a Medicine G.o.d, how earth-shattering would that be? Even an Immortal Divine Sect would be stirred!” Many people thought.
The battle was only an accident. Chen Fan might have practiced some kind of special secret arts or tried making the “Recuperating Pill of Three Souls” before, hence such an astonis.h.i.+ng result had been produced.
But what happened next was beyond everyone’s imagination.
Three days later.
Chen Fan had a battle with Zhang Baihong, the ninth elder of the Alchemy Guild who was known as “Grandmaster Rebellious.” They had to make an inferior-grade Treasure Pill, the “Five Transformation Spirit Pill.”
When Zhang Baihong was at an advantage, Chen Fan made an unequaled-grade pill with a thought again and defeated Zhang Baihong, winning the second battle.
Six days later.
Chen Fan formed a pill with a thought and defeated Elder Chenyan. He won the third battle.
Nine days later.
Chen Fan won again…
He won all four battles in a row! During the fourth battle, the Guild Master himself, Xu Yuan, was Chen Fan’s opponent. The pill they had to make was a superior-grade Treasure Pill, the “Heavenly Soul Blood Pill.” There were only three people in the entire Beihuang Region who could make such medicine.
But Chen Fan still won and formed a pill with a thought again.
Until that moment, even the dumbest person knew Chen Fan was much stronger than Situ Cheng, the elders of the Alchemy Guild and all other Alchemy Grandmasters. He had reached an incredible level which people could only look up to.
A Heavenly Alchemist? A Medicine G.o.d? An Alchemy Saint?
n.o.body knew.
Chen Fan stood there like a tall mountain, looking down upon everyone else. Even Hu Xiao was speechless and Violet Moon Fairy’s eyes were glittering when she looked at Chen Fan. Those of the Alchemy Guild were all gloomy. Losing four battles was too much for them.
He had defeated the entire guild!
The Alchemy Guild had never had such a severe blow in the past thousands of years! Meanwhile, there was only one battle left. If even Xu Yuan had lost, who else could win?
While many people were feeling hopeless.
A message came and astonished the entire Beihuang Region.
Elixir Lord was going to have a battle with Chen Fan on the top floor of the tower!
That would be a battle between the strongest alchemists in the Beihuang Region. The entire region and the world of alchemy in the north were stirred!
