Chapter 586: First Class on the Dou Qi Continent

From his experience, Dan Chen is not far from reaching the Eighth Grade Alchemist realm at this point.

If nothing unexpected happens, he will surely be able to refine an Eighth Grade Pill at next year's Dan Assembly.

Afterwards, he raised his head to look at the silver lightning gathering power in the sky, and his palm suddenly swung.

A surging scarlet whip-like bolt shot out, directly striking the thick dark clouds above the plaza.

"Boom—"

In a tremendous roar, those dark clouds and the Pill Lightning above completely vanished.

And the warm sunshine once again fell upon everyone.

Lin Feng saw this scene and couldn't help but click his tongue.

Although he could easily block the Pill Lightning, he could not simply swat it away with a casual hand.

As for Cao Ying standing nearby, upon seeing his alchemy level, a hint of apprehension quickly flashed across her crimson beautiful eyes.

This girl's alchemy ability is now not inferior to hers.

If it weren't for his lower Dou Qi level putting him at a disadvantage when refining such high-grade pills,

She could very well capsize and be overtaken by him.

As for the other members present, most of them cast astonished glances.

While they were still wandering around the Seventh Grade as senior alchemists, he had already become a Seventh Grade Pinnacle Alchemist.

Most importantly, Dan Chen is only eighteen years old, making him two to three years younger than most of the students here.

And after the Pill Lightning above him was destroyed, Dan Chen immediately waved his jade hand, sucking the escaping alchemy pill from the medicine cauldron into his palm.

He then approached Elder Zhong and handed the pill over for inspection.

"Not bad, the quality of the pill you just refined is only slightly inferior to Cao Ying's, but considering your own strength is at a disadvantage, on the path of alchemy you can be considered her equal."

Elder Zhong smiled and nodded after examining the pill.

Even he felt considerable envy for his alchemy talent.

His special physique, which can directly absorb soul power to strengthen himself, is already enough.

Even his learning ability is a rare existence in the world.

"I really don't know which man will end up benefiting from this genius in the end."

While feeling moved in his heart, Elder Zhong returned the pill to Dan Chen.

He then turned his head to Lin Feng and said, "Lin Feng, come refine a pill once to see your current level."

"Yes."

Lin Feng stood up, responded with an affirmation, and then walked toward the open space ahead.

Dan Chen, seeing this, also gave him an encouraging glance.

Lin Feng also gave a faint smile in response.

As for Cao Ying standing nearby, upon seeing their interaction, a hint of displeasure immediately appeared on her charming pretty face.

Although she currently has no particular feelings for Lin Feng, such a genius, unlike other men who shamelessly flatter themselves to come chat with her, is already enough.

Now, he is even exchanging flirtatious glances with his rival, which she finds somewhat intolerable.

However, Lin Feng at this moment naturally does not know that his interaction with Dan Chen has made Cao Ying unhappy.

After he sat down, he immediately took out that gray eight‑opening medicine cauldron.

Then he flicked his palm, and an azure flame traced through space into the medicine cauldron.

However, at the instant he summoned the Qing Lotus Earth Flame,

the flames within the bodies of the dozen or so people around him all trembled suddenly, submitting to that azure flame.

"That is... Strange Fire!"

Sensing the abnormal movement of the flames within their bodies, everyone first froze, then rose to their feet in unison, their faces flooding with a strong sense of astonishment.

After all, aside from Strange Fire, they could not think of any other flame capable of causing their own flames to behave this way.

"The azure flame, when burning, occasionally shows a lotus shape; it appears to be the nineteenth‑ranked Strange Fire, the Qing Lotus Earth Flame."

Elder Zhong was likewise astonished, gazing at the azure flame inside the medicine cauldron and muttering.

And the others also eventually recognized the Strange Fire in Lin Feng's hand.

For that wondrous flame coveted by alchemists across the continent, they certainly had learned about its information and could recognize it.

Meanwhile, Lin Feng had already begun refining the pill and naturally had no time to pay attention to everyone's astonishment.

However, when he produced the Strange Fire, he had already anticipated everyone's reaction.

At the same time, many people in the Dan Tower knew he possessed the Strange Fire.

Therefore, he never thought of hiding it in front of everyone.

"I never expected Lin Feng to have such luck, actually finding a Strange Fire and successfully absorbing it."

Cao Ying's crimson beautiful eyes fixed upon Lin Feng, who was intently refining the pill.

She began to scheming in her heart how to borrow his Strange Fire to play with for a few days.

Upon encountering such a supreme treasure, even if she cannot obtain it, borrowing it for a few days of play would also be fine.

After all, even the senior elders inside the Xiao Dan Tower do not necessarily all have used this Strange Fire to refine pills.

Given Lin Feng's current alchemy skill, the failure rate for refining Seventh Grade pills is extremely low.

Therefore, after the crowd stared at the Strange Fire with fiery eyes for several days, he successfully refined a Seventh Grade Pinnacle Pill.

"Not bad, your alchemy skill is probably the strongest among these students."

Elder Zhong glanced at the pill in his hand, his seasoned eyes immediately discerning its exact quality, and then he praised it.

He then tossed the pill back and said, "Return to your position; now that I have a general understanding of your information, I will now give you a lecture on some alchemy knowledge."

Lin Feng, after putting away the pill, also quickly returned to his original spot.

However, as soon as the former sat down, Dan Chen, who usually doesn't like to talk, acted out of character, eagerly moving closer.

"Lin Feng Big Brother, although it's a bit sudden, could you lend me your Strange Fire for a few days? I also want to try using Strange Fire to refine pills and see what it feels like."

Dan Chen stared at Lin Feng with fiery eyes, speaking full of anticipation.

Lin Feng smelled the faint fragrance from the girl beside him, and his expression turned somewhat strange.

He knew that whenever it had to do with alchemy, Dan Chen would act out of the ordinary and become different.

But he never expected that this girl's pursuit of alchemy would reach such an extent.

When Dan Chen saw Lin Feng not answering for a long time, the anticipation on her beautiful little face gradually faded, turning into disappointment.

However, although she was disappointed, she did not resent Lin Feng.

After all, such a precious treasure, few people dare to lend it out lightly.

If an accident were to occur, the loss would be huge.

At this moment, Lin Feng also came to his senses, his gaze falling on the girl beside him whose little face was full of loss.

Then, under the gaze of the girl whose eyes were suffused with a hint of mist, he nodded and smiled, saying, "No problem, after class, come to my room, and I'll tell you some precautions for using the Strange Fire."

"Lin Feng Big Brother, is this really true?"

Upon hearing that, Dan Chen's disappointed eyes instantly lit up, and she exclaimed in disbelief.

"Really."

Lin Feng nodded, and his hand unconsciously rested on her head, rubbing it.

However, he quickly realized the gesture was inappropriate and then withdrew his hand.

"Then Chen Er will first thank Lin Feng Big Brother here."

Upon receiving his confirmation, Dan Chen nodded without hesitation.

As for whether it was appropriate for the two of them to stay in a room together at night, she had long forgotten about it.

"Lin Feng, Dan Chen, you two don't space out; pay attention to the lecture. Otherwise, even if your soul power increases later, your alchemy skills will be a mess, wasting your talent for nothing!"

"Yes."

Lin Feng responded helplessly, and then, just like when he was a child in his previous life, he obediently listened to the lecture.
