Public Alchemy: Xiao Yan's Name Spread Across the Central Plains from Danta!

The next morning.

The top floor of the Danta, the Star-Gazing Platform.

Xiao Yan sat upright on the platform, having already taken out the Myriad Beast Cauldron and placed it in front of him.

The area around the Star-Gazing Platform was filled with people, all of them elders and deacons of the Danta.

This marked Xiao Yan's first public appearance in front of the many members of the Danta.

In his capacity as a disciple of the Xuan Yi sect and the Young President of the Danta, he will conduct a public alchemy demonstration.

Many of the audience members, who weren't well-informed, looked at the Eighth-Grade Alchemist badge on Xiao Yan's chest with some surprise and uncertainty.

So young, and already Eighth-Grade?

Is this Young President, Xiao Yan, really that exceptionally talented?

On a charming little building next to the Star-Gazing Platform, the Three Great Elders of Danta also made their appearance.

To their left were Venerable Feng and Mu Qingluan.

On the right are Ye Xinlan, Cao Ying, and Dan Chen, and behind them is Zi Yan, who can't help but yawn.

Queen Medusa received some pills from Xuan Yi and is currently in seclusion, so she hasn't had time to come out and watch Xiao Yan refine pills.

As for Zi Yan, she's been taking too many pills lately and yawns frequently. I reckon she'll need to go into seclusion to cultivate and prepare for her breakthrough.

Originally, Venerable Feng had planned to leave a month ago, but upon hearing that Xiao Yan was preparing to refine Eighth-Grade Pill, which was related to the resurrection of another Dou Zun expert, he insisted on coming to observe.

Xiao Yan thought that when Old Yao was resurrected, he would need Venerable Feng's help to find materials, so he invited him to go to the Ye Clan together, so that he could also help protect Venerable Skyfire.

Inviting Venerable Skyfire to join the Starfall Pavilion at that time would be a natural progression.

After all, although Xiao Yan is indeed the Young President of the Danta, he is also the only Young Pavilion Master the Starfall Pavilion.

Old Yao couldn't stay in the Danta forever; he would eventually have to return to the Starfall Pavilion. Given that, Xiao Yan naturally wouldn't want to let go of such a powerful force as Venerable Skyfire.

Moreover, Venerable Skyfire had nowhere to go, and Xiao Yan was his only successor, as well as an Eighth-Grade Alchemist.

If he wants to improve, he naturally won't leave Xiao Yan.

Xiao Yan had told him about the materials needed to revive him long ago, and the materials Xiao Yan had prepared were even better than what he had mentioned before. Yao Tianhuo didn't say it, but he remembered it in his heart.

At this moment, Venerable Skyfire, who was inside Xiao Yan's finger Storage Ring, was also somewhat excited as he watched Xiao Yan about to begin refining pills.

The final step towards resurrection is about to be taken. With Xiao Yan's current level, it will probably take about half a month to refine Eighth-Grade Bone-Growing Blood-Melting Pill. Half a month, and then it will probably take some time to travel to the Ye Clan. But it seems that within a month, his Yao Tianhuo will be able to usher in a new life!

I'm so excited just thinking about it!

Meanwhile, standing on the Star-Gazing Platform, watching Xiao Yan concentrate and prepare to begin refining medicine, the three little disciples' beautiful eyes also sparkled with anticipation.

Eighth-Grade Pill!

This was the first time they had ever witnessed their master refining pills of this grade!

Xiao Yan was not concerned with what everyone was thinking at the moment; he had already adjusted his state of mind.

"Gentlemen, what I am going to refine today is the Bone-Growing Blood-Melting Pill, which was originally only Seventh-Grade pill. By increasing the age of the medicinal materials in the prescription and compensating with the alchemy techniques, I will make it directly reach the level of Eighth-Grade Pill with at least Two-Colored Pill Lightning."

Xiao Yan's voice, amplified by his Dou Qi, resounded throughout the surroundings, unsurprisingly causing a commotion.

Many alchemists have not yet reached the Eighth-Grade rank and do not have a clear understanding of this.

However, Elder Sheng, who had already reached the level of Eighth-Grade Alchemist, and the other elders in the Danta who had also reached the Eighth-Grade level, all showed expressions of awe.

Generally speaking, the quantity and proportion of medicinal herbs in a prescription are within a fixed range, and cannot be changed at will.

Xiao Yan's ability to achieve this demonstrates his solid foundation and superb Alchemy.

However, Xiao Yan didn't care what they thought. He flicked his finger, and the Beast Fallen Lotus Heart Flame surged from his palm and flew into the Myriad Beast Cauldron.

The moment that powerful Fused Heavenly Flame, comparable to the Red Lotus Karma Flame, appeared, the temperature inside the Danta increased significantly.

"What a powerful flame! Judging from its color, it resembles the Sea Heart Flame, but its aura is no less than the Three Thousand Burning Flame sealed within the Star Domain!"

The Pill Tower Grand Elder, Qiu Ling, looked at the Heavenly Flames that Xiao Yan had unleashed and muttered to himself in surprise and confusion.

"Perhaps it's some kind of powerful Heavenly Flames that's not on the list."

Elder Sheng, who was standing to the side, guessed upon hearing this.

"Hmm, maybe, but I heard the Young President is not even sixteen yet? Such talent is truly terrifying!"

Qiu Ling nodded after hearing this, and then exclaimed in disbelief.

"Yes, at this age, no matter where you are, they are still children who haven't had their coming-of-age ceremony, yet they already possess such exquisite Alchemy, and their own cultivation has already reached the Peak Dou Emperor. It's truly enviable."

Elder Sheng couldn't help but agree.

Qiu Ling fell silent upon hearing this.

In comparison, these old folks who have lived for decades are actually less capable than a child?

A sense of absurdity welled up inside me.

But he was an old hand at this, and he quickly adjusted and began to carefully observe Xiao Yan's alchemy techniques.

For these Eighth-Grade Alchemists, observing alchemists of the same level refine pills is also a good form of cultivation.

By this time, Xiao Yan had already taken out all the prepared medicinal herbs and put them into the medicine cauldron one by one.

Deep within his soul's sea of consciousness, the Master of Devouring, residing within the Devouring Ancestral Symbol, was also silently observing and learning.

He found it quite interesting.

Although he lacks fire and wood attribute Dou Qi, his Half-Step Divine Palace Realm spiritual power, combined with the Devouring Ancestral Symbol, can generate the Devouring Flame.

He might be good at alchemy too!

If he ever has the chance to return to the Tianxuan Continent, he might be able to help Xiao Yan open a new path of alchemy in addition to the path of talisman masters.

If that's the case, the development of the Tianxuan Continent will surely be even better!

Once the medicinal herbs entered the cauldron, they rapidly shrank under the terrifying high temperature of the Beast Fallen Lotus Heart Flame, and were refined into some pure medicinal powder and liquid.

They were each swept up by Xiao Yan's soul power and floated on the edge of the medicine cauldron.

During this process, Xiao Yan will consciously use the spirituality within his soul power to imbue the medicinal powder and liquid with spirit. With each accumulation, a quantitative change can lead to a qualitative change, thereby improving the quality of the pills.

Two and a half hours later, Xiao Yan had easily refined all the medicinal herbs.

Next comes the process of integrating the essence of the medicinal herbs, which will take a long time.

Half a month passed in the blink of an eye.

Not a single person who was observing left.

At their level, if there's no energy expenditure, not sleeping is perfectly fine.

Even Xiao Yan's three young disciples, relying on some spirit-nourishing pills, managed to observe the entire process.

It was easy for everyone to sense how powerful the fluctuations emanating from Xiao Yan's medicine cauldron were.

What shocked them even more was that Xiao Yan hadn't made a single mistake from the beginning until now. If nothing unexpected happened, he would complete the refining of Eighth-Grade Pill in one go.

Compared to some Eighth-Grade Alchemist who need three or even five portions of medicinal herbs to refine a single pill, Xiao Yan is simply a monster.

Elder Sheng recalled what Xiao Yan had said about luckily refining High-Tier Seventh-Grade pill. Only then did he realize that for a genius like the Young President, a pill-refining skill that only succeeded once in three attempts could truly be considered a lucky success.

Because what this guy is pursuing is the state of 100% success in refining!

To achieve this, just how solid must his foundation be?

Facing the expectant gazes around him, Xiao Yan simply calmed himself down and changed the hand seals in his hands.

"Clang!"

As Xiao Yan changed the hand seals, the lid of the Myriad Beast Cauldron was suddenly lifted, and an astonishing energy wave swept out from the center of the cauldron, crashing hard against the inner wall of the cauldron and producing a deafening metallic sound.

Although the medicine cauldron blocked the flow, some energy fluctuations still spread out, causing Xiao Yan's robes to flutter in the wind.

Xiao Yan calmly rose, his long hair flying and his robes fluttering. His elegant demeanor made the eyes of his three young disciples on the pavilion sparkle.

Even the elders and deacons around him couldn't help but sigh inwardly, "This young man is even more handsome than I was when I was young!"

At this moment, a purple light also flickered in Zi Yan's eyes, and her pink tongue couldn't help but stick out and lick her lips.

This guy seems so pleasing to the eye today!

I really want to eat him!

Xuan Kongzi and Tian Leizi, however, shamelessly pondered, "This child looks exactly like me when I was young."

Xuan Yi at Xiao Yan's handsome and spirited appearance, Xuan Yi couldn't help but smile with satisfaction.

Although she had only spent half a year with Xiao Yan, she truly treated Xiao Yan like her own child. Now, seeing Xiao Yan's charming and handsome appearance, she, as his mother, was naturally incredibly proud!

Old Yao couldn't reveal himself, so he was hiding in his Storage Ring, but he was still observing Xiao Yan's performance.

With his seasoned insight, it wasn't hard to tell that the pill Xiao Yan had refined this time would at least have Two-Colored Pill Lightning. But based on his understanding of his disciple as a teacher, Xiao Yan was probably able to refine a three-colored, or even Five-Colored Pill Lightning this time.

Because...

Xiao Yan has completely figured out all of his methods.

Today's alchemy session is not only Xiao Yan's way of announcing his emergence to the Danta and ushering in a new era for him, but also the day he officially graduates from his apprenticeship.

As the earth-shattering energy fluctuations spread out, the Myriad Beast Cauldron trembled violently, and a massive blue pillar of fire shot into the sky!

The blazing flames illuminated the entire top floor of the Danta as if it were daytime, and the energy fluctuations emanating from within the pillars of fire caused many Dou Zong experts to show expressions of horror.

At the end of the Tian Huo, high in the sky, strange mist rapidly condensed, soon manifesting the shape of thunderclouds.

Everyone held their breath, countless eyes fixed on the churning thunderclouds in the sky.

As expected, amidst the churning thunderclouds, the blue and silver colors slowly emerged.

"Two colors! It really is Two-Colored Thundercloud!"

Looking at the color of the thunderclouds, the many elders and deacons who were observing the alchemy process cheered excitedly.

This observation of medicine making was very beneficial to them.

"No, the thunderclouds are still churning, and new colors are appearing!"

Amid the cheers, a sudden exclamation rang out.

Upon hearing this, everyone was startled and quickly focused their attention on the surging thunderclouds in the sky. Sure enough, they saw a touch of red gradually emerging from the blue and silver, which soon painted the thunderclouds into three colors: blue, silver, and red!

Tricolor thunderclouds!

In just three months, the Young President's Alchemy have improved again!

Elder Sheng was somewhat numb.

That's how geniuses are; they break through limitations as they practice.

He's used to it.

As for Xiao Yan's three little disciples, they had already transformed into a cheering squad of girls, cheering and shouting for Xiao Yan, completely disregarding their girlish reserve.

Master is so handsome!

"The Three-Colored Pill Lightning..."

Xuan Kongzi was at a loss for words.

Back when he was the same age as Xiao Yan, let alone the Three-Colored Pill Lightning, he probably couldn't even summon Pill Cloud to refine pills.

This child is absolutely phenomenal!

Tian Leizi, standing to the side, also showed a rare smile of satisfaction. After all, he had taught Xiao Yan a lot. Just now, while refining medicine, he had already discovered traces of those things. This child had truly mastered what he had taught him.

This is undoubtedly a very fulfilling thing for a teacher.

"More than."

Only Xuan Yi seemed to have discerned something from Xiao Yan's unchanging hand seals, and a tender and nostalgic look appeared in her beautiful eyes.

So that's what this child was planning all along?

Yao Chen has truly taken on a fine disciple!

"Oh?"

Hearing Xuan Yi say this, the people around him were also stunned. There was more than that?

Xuan Yi remained silent, only turning his gaze back to Xiao Yan with a mysterious smile on his lips.

Hmph, as her mother, how could she not know what her own child was thinking?

I will enjoy this happiness all by myself!

Seeing this, everyone felt somewhat helpless. However, the three old men knew Xuan Yi's temperament and had no way to deal with her. The five young girls were also reluctant to question their elders. At this moment, they could only suppress their curiosity and turn their gaze to Xiao Yan on the Star-Gazing Platform.

Xiao Yan calmly stepped forward, his palm reaching directly into the pillar of light in front of him.

The quality of Eighth-Grade Pill, and the amount of energy it contains, is no longer so important; what matters is its spiritual essence.

To improve the quality of elixirs, one must enhance their spiritual essence.

The principle is simple, but putting it into practice is not easy.

Even among Alchemy Grandmaster who have spent many years immersed in the Eighth-Grade realm and possess great abilities, very few dare to forcibly improve the quality of a pill after it has been formed.

After all, one careless move could destroy the elixir and cause a backlash against the person.

However, while others might not dare, Xiao Yan is now fearless.

Because he inherited all of the Old Yao's alchemy skills!

That was the alchemy master that Old Yao was so proud of, and it was also proof that Xiao Yan had truly graduated!

Its name Spirit Ascension!
