Sixth-Rank Beast Flame!
Hearing the voice, Wang Chen immediately put his things away, got up, and opened the door.
"I understand, Senior Brother."
The visitor was none other than Medicine Elder's disciple and Wang Chen's senior brother.
The middle-aged supervisor who had interviewed Wang Chen back then—Qi Ming.
"Hurry up. Teacher looks to be in an excellent mood. He must have brought the Beast Flame back for you."
Seeing Wang Chen move at such an unhurried pace, Qi Ming grew a little anxious.
He hurriedly grabbed Wang Chen and rushed toward Medicine Elder's Study.
He knew exactly why Medicine Elder had gone out this time.
To be honest, he had felt a tiny bit jealous when he saw how much Medicine Elder valued Wang Chen.
After all, even he, a disciple Medicine Elder had taught for many years, only had a Tier 5 Beast Flame.
Yet for Wang Chen, a disciple he had taken in less than a year ago, Medicine Elder had personally risked himself to search for a Sixth-Rank Beast Flame.
Anyone would feel a little upset at such unequal treatment.
But Qi Ming was, after all, an upright Alchemist, not some petty villain who envied the capable.
That small resentment did not last long before it faded away.
Not only did he stop being jealous of Wang Chen, his junior brother, he instead helped him at every turn.
As long as one was not an idiot, they would not offend a genius Alchemist with whom they had a good relationship.
In Qi Ming's words, he had to butter him up.
With a genius Alchemist as his junior brother, wouldn't there be someone to refine things like Imperial Extreme Pills and Sect-Breaking Pills for him in the future?
Wang Chen was not someone utterly ignorant of human relationships. Under Qi Ming's deliberate efforts to befriend him, the two developed an excellent relationship.
Throughout Jia Nan Academy, Qi Ming was one of Wang Chen's only two friends.
The other was Man Hu, who had shamelessly insisted on recognizing Wang Chen as his boss back in Wutan City.
At that time, Wang Chen had not yet truly risen to prominence, but Man Hu had already acknowledged him as his boss.
Naturally, that carried a completely different meaning from running over to rely on him only after he had become successful.
Wang Chen was not stingy toward an obedient lackey like Man Hu.
Not only had he used his Golden Finger to strengthen a Mystic-Tier High-Level cultivation method for him, he also supplied him with Medicinal Pills that accelerated cultivation from time to time.
In any case, none of that took much effort for Wang Chen.
After all, over the past half year, he had used the Golden Finger's abilities to strengthen cultivation methods of various attributes.
Through Jia Nan Academy's channels, he sent those attribute-based cultivation methods back to the Xiao Clan.
After all, he was also a member of the Xiao Clan and held no ill will toward it.
As long as it was within his abilities, he did not mind helping the Xiao Clan.
Wang Chen himself currently needed all kinds of resources, so he had not sent the Xiao Clan any Medicinal Pills.
However, cultivation methods were useless to Wang Chen.
They also cost little and were more than enough to help the Xiao Clan.
Copying one out for a loyal lackey was practically effortless charity.
With Wang Chen's help, Man Hu's strength had soared from Five-Star Dou Zhe to Nine-Star Dou Zhe. He was now only a single step away from becoming a Dou Shi.
Naturally, Man Hu became even more loyal to Wang Chen.
He was not especially clever, but he knew who was worth following.
Wang Chen was a rapidly rising golden thigh. If he did not cling to him, he would not merely be stupid—he would be an idiot.
Dragged along by Qi Ming, they soon arrived at Medicine Elder's Study.
"Teacher."
"Teacher."
Wang Chen and Qi Ming both bowed respectfully.
Any student would respect a teacher like Medicine Elder, who sincerely devoted himself to nurturing his disciples.
Even Wang Chen, a transmigrator, genuinely acknowledged this teacher and treated him like a father.
"Alright, no need for such formalities among family."
There was still dust from the road on Medicine Elder's clothes as he casually waved his hand.
It was clear that he had returned to Jia Nan Academy and immediately summoned Wang Chen.
"Look!"
Medicine Elder did not waste any time and directly took a bead from his Storage Ring.
Golden flames burned within it, and a flood dragon rolled through the fire.
"This is the Beast Flame of a peak Sixth-Rank Purple-Gold Scarlet Flame Flood Dragon."
Medicine Elder explained with considerable pride.
He had gone to great lengths to obtain this Beast Flame.
He had not only invited two Dou Emperor elders from the Outer Academy, but had also invited two Dou Emperor elders from the Inner Academy.
Four Dou Emperors, plus himself, a Peak Fifth-Grade Alchemist, had spent nearly two months to obtain this single Beast Flame.
One could imagine how difficult this had been.
Fortunately, everything had gone rather smoothly, and the Beast Flame he had prepared for his disciple was now in hand.
So he immediately returned to Jia Nan Academy, intending to give the Beast Flame to Wang Chen.
After all, Wang Chen had previously displayed the strength of a Da Dou Shi in public.
With that level of strength, combined with his powerful Soul Power, refining this Sixth-Rank Beast Flame should not be much of a problem.
After all, it was merely a Beast Flame, not an actual Sixth-Order Magical Beast.
Moreover, Medicine Elder had long since prepared all the Medicinal Pills and supplies needed to refine the Beast Flame.
Wang Chen only needed to follow the steps, and he would be able to refine the Beast Flame successfully.
"Thank you, Teacher."
After hearing Medicine Elder's explanation, Wang Chen felt heartfelt gratitude.
Previously, he had thought that the Sixth-Rank Beast Flame Medicine Elder intended to prepare for him would, at most, be a Purple Flame.
After all, the original work had described the Purple Crystal Lion King's combat strength as not particularly outrageous.
With Medicine Elder's influence, taking a Purple Flame should have been relatively easy.
But the Purple-Gold Scarlet Flame Flood Dragon was completely different.
Though it was still a Sixth-Order Magical Beast, it was a peak Sixth-Order Magical Beast.
Its combat power could rival that of an ordinary Tier 7 Magical Beast to a certain extent.
The difficulty of taking its Beast Flame could not be compared to the former.
Facing such a top-tier Sixth-Order Magical Beast, even Dou Emperors were in considerable danger.
Fortunately, Medicine Elder was an Alchemist with sufficient influence.
Furthermore, Jia Nan Academy's foundations were deep enough to gather a sufficient number of experts.
Otherwise, even a Peak Fifth-Grade Alchemist like Medicine Elder would not have found it easy to seize this Sixth-Rank Beast Flame.
"This Storage Ring contains all the supplies needed to refine the Beast Flame, along with some of the insights and experience I gained when refining Beast Flames in the past.
Go back and study them carefully first. The day after tomorrow, I will personally stand guard for you while you refine this Beast Flame."
After handing the Beast Flame to Wang Chen, Medicine Elder took out another low-grade Storage Ring and instructed him.
For a Da Dou Shi, refining a Sixth-Rank Beast Flame did have a chance of success.
And that chance was not low.
But one still had to be extremely cautious. A single mistake could lead to all kinds of accidents.
A moment of carelessness could very well result in irreparable losses.
Especially for a top genius like Wang Chen, Medicine Elder did not want anything to happen to him.
