A Miraculous Fire Control Technique, a Gambler

Not far away, Duan Chong was processing herbs. His Cultivation Method was very strong, also of the Heaven Grade Supreme Quality, so the quality of his Spiritual Qi energy was naturally excellent. In addition, his Dao of Alchemy lineage was also very strong, so he processed the herbs quite quickly.

Duan Chong had already processed nearly 70% of the herbs. Hearing the commotion around him, Duan Chong frowned, a sense of disbelief rising in his heart.

Have you finished processing the medicinal herbs?

Female cultivator?

Who is it?

Duan Chong paid no attention to the Supreme-Grade Law Treasure Pill Furnace, as he also used Supreme-Grade Law Treasure Pill Furnace.

He even possessed Supreme-Grade Spirit Treasures, top-grade Profound Heaven Law Treasures, and Heaven-Connecting Law Treasure Pill Furnace.

These were part of the initial resources his Lineage provided him before he went down to the Canglan Realm for training.

After all, how can an Alchemist function without a good Pill Furnace?

Of course, the total amount of resources each member of the Duan Household obtains before going down to the mortal realm for training is fixed. Since he spent a lot of resources on the Pill Furnace, other resources will definitely be reduced accordingly.

However, Duan Chong didn't care about this. He was extremely good at earning resources. He only needed to obtain some rare medicinal herbs from the Canglan Realm, along with his Pill Furnace, and he could earn everything else on his own.

What he's concerned about now is whether there's someone in the Canglan Realm who can process medicinal herbs faster than him?

How is that possible?!

He wouldn't think much of it if the other party was Golden Core Realm Dao of Alchemy master or a Nascent Soul Realm Alchemist.

After all, different levels of cultivation lead to different insights into Dao of Alchemy.

However, the Alchemists in this palace are all at the second level, and their cultivation is all at the Foundation Establishment Realm.

At the same level, how could he lose in handling medicinal herbs!?

Moreover, the gap is quite large; he has only dealt with a mere 70% of it so far!

Who exactly is it?

Duan Chong Chonggang pondered this question, a figure suddenly appeared in his mind.

The female cultivator... it's her?

Duan Chong stopped processing the medicinal herbs and turned around. Just as he expected, he saw Lin Ying tending a fire to warm the stove.

Although he already had some guesses in his mind, Duan Chong's pupils still contracted slightly when he saw this scene with his own eyes.

He was very familiar with his own lineage. Although Dao of Alchemy Duan Household, over countless years, they had accumulated a lineage that reached the Integrated Body Realm.

In addition to his own Spirit Physique, combined with Heaven Grade Supreme Quality Cultivation Method, the various heavenly materials and earthly treasures he had used since childhood, and the various Pill Formulas he had studied...

It can be said that his starting point was much higher than that of the cultivators in the Canglan Realm!

Under such circumstances, how could he have been defeated by a female cultivator from the Canglan Realm?

Is she actually from the Spirit Realm?

It doesn't seem like it.

Could it be because of that male cultivator?

His eyes flickered, a hint of alarm appearing on his face.

In that case, the male cultivator's background is probably stronger than he imagined.

If this female cultivator is a native of the Canglan Realm, and she was able to be cultivated into such a terrifying Dao of Alchemy prodigy by that male cultivator, then the Dao of Alchemy resources he possesses must be extremely abundant!

Of course, this female cultivator's Dao of Alchemy is probably not bad either; perhaps she is also a Spirit Physique?

However... as an Azure Wood Spirit Physique, Duan Chong did not sense any special fluctuations from this female cultivator's Spirit Physique.

Could they be hiding?

Duan Chong were racing as he continued to look at Lin Ying. Soon, his pupils contracted, and he was even more surprised.

He saw Lin Ying throw all the processed medicinal herbs into the Pill Furnace at once!

This...

How is that possible?

Can a second-tier Alchemist process so many medicinal herbs at the same time?

And it can even condense elixir?

Even Duan Chong, whose Divine Sense strength had reached the Golden Core Realm and was even close to the Nascent Soul Realm, could not achieve this!

Because no matter his experience in Dao of Alchemy, fire control techniques, or pill-condensing techniques, he could not achieve this level!

However, Lin Ying actually did just that!

Duan Chong subconsciously held his breath, and even stopped refining his pills.

He wanted to see how Lin Ying handled so many medicinal herbs!

The next moment, he saw a wisp of eerie green light flash in Lin Ying's eyes, which then transformed into flowing Runes.

At the same time, Lin Ying's fair hands danced like butterflies, forming mysterious and complex hand Hand Seals in the air.

As the Hand Seals were completed, the Pill Flame beneath the Pill Furnace seemed to come alive, and Lin Ying was able to control it perfectly.

The Pill Flame was divided into several streams, some of which circled the furnace wall to maintain the temperature inside the Pill Furnace, while others focused on heating a specific area.

Some flames were extremely hot, while others were much cooler; even the colors of the flames varied slightly—some were red, some white, some blue...

The various streams of flame are colorful, like gorgeous flowers blooming and swaying.

This bizarre scene caused all the Alchemists who were watching Lin Ying to widen their eyes, their mouths slightly agape, their minds blank, unable to utter a single word.

Only Duan Chong knowledge and experience, was able to maintain a certain degree of rationality.

Even so, Duan Chong was still deeply shocked.

This Fire Control Technique is definitely not your average Fire Control Technique!

Even the strongest Fire Control Technique in the Duan Household's Dao of Alchemy lineage is no better than this, and may even be slightly inferior!

This female cultivator's Dao of Alchemy skills are probably at the Body Integration Realm Stage!

It's even possible that it's at the Mahayana Realm stage.

After all, this female cultivator's cultivation level is still low. The fact that she can use such Fire Control Technique is already terrifying. If she wants to use a higher level of Fire Control Technique, her cultivation level is probably insufficient.

Even so, with just this Fire Control Technique, this female cultivator would be considered a top-tier prodigy among Alchemists of the same level in the Spirit Realm!

It's hard to imagine that Duan Chong would encounter such a monstrous talent in a small place like the Canglan Realm!

Even Duan Chong was so shocked, let alone the other cultivators.

The Alchemists were stunned for a few moments before gradually regaining their senses.

They looked at each other, their eyes filled with shock and disbelief.

A hoarse voice exclaimed, "... What... what kind of Fire Control Technique is this?! What kind of Dao of Alchemy Divine Ability is this?"

"Incredible... she actually controlled the Pill Flame to such an extent!"

"Who... who exactly is this fairy? What is her background? This Fire Control Technique is something even Golden Core Realm Dao of Alchemy master probably wouldn't know, right?"

"Absolutely not! Even among the Dao of Alchemy Grandmaster, there probably aren't many who know this kind of Fire Control Technique, right?"

"..."

The crowd murmured amongst themselves, but instinctively kept their voices low, not daring to disturb Lin Ying as she refined the pills.

After all, it's obvious to anyone with eyes that a female cultivator who can master such Fire Control Techniques, process medicinal herbs with such incredible speed, and possess Supreme-Grade Law Treasures, couldn't possibly not have a powerful background.

In fact, her background might be more powerful than anyone can imagine!

Not only did they have this guess, but other Alchemists in the distance also looked over and made their own guesses, including Jian Shuchen.

Jian Shuchen when Lin Ying started making a commotion, so he naturally turned to look at her.

When he saw Lin Ying's incredible Fire Control Technique, his eyes widened suddenly, a chill ran through him, and even the Spiritual Qi within his body fluctuated.

Although he was arrogant, he wasn't stupid. If he had previously thought that Lin Ying's statement that she wouldn't pursue the matter was just a show of bravado, then he would have realized that she was actually weak-willed.

Now, recalling Lin Ying's previous gaze and tone, a sense of fear welled up within him.

As a disciple of Nascent Soul True Lord, he naturally knew that even Nascent Soul True Lord might not possess such a legacy!

This female cultivator might come from an Immortal Sect Holy Land at the Spirit Transformation Realm!

If that's really the case, then my previous attitude towards her...

He didn't even dare to imagine how this female cultivator would retaliate against him!

Cold sweat poured down his forehead and back, and his hands trembled slightly.

Soon, his eyes lit up, as if he had grasped at some lifeline, and he thought of another possibility.

Perhaps this female cultivator obtained her inheritance from some Ruins!

Right!

Perhaps she's just a lucky one who obtained this inheritance from the Ruins, and is now eager to show off at the Crimson Cloud Sect's Dao of Alchemy Convention and gain the Crimson Cloud Sect's recognition!

Right!

If that's the case, there's still hope for me!

Perhaps... I might even have a chance to inherit this legacy!

At this moment, Jian Shuchen's eyes were bloodshot, like a gambler who had thrown all the options that were completely unfavorable to him to the back of his mind, leaving only the guess that could put his mind at ease!
