Chapter 90: Pills Form Amidst Laughter

Such a feat, let alone a seventh-grade alchemist could achieve it.

Even Lu Chong, the sect master of the strongest alchemy faction in the Tianzun Imperial Dynasty, would not dare to claim so. Otherwise, why would Lu Chong have cried out just now?

Clearly, this scene caused a massive visual shock to Lu Chong and to everyone inside and outside the arena.

Even Shangguan Luoyun and Chi Lian exchanged bewildered glances, their eyes filled with disbelief. Xu Chen could actually refine pills? And even refining a hundred spirit herbs at once without a single flaw? They were stunned.

Even Lu Chong does not possess such technique; this is truly formidable!

Perhaps Xu Chen has truly grasped the essence of alchemy, or maybe a grandmaster is guiding him in secret? They were not entirely sure, but they knew this was a good thing.

Shangguan Luoyun smiled lightly: "Just now, who said Xu Chen could not refine pills?" Upon hearing this, many great powers twitched at the corners of their mouths: "Sect Master Shangguan, alchemy has only just begun. Being able to merge the medicinal liquids does not mean the pill embryo can be formed."

"Even if the pill embryo can be formed, it does not mean it will not become a failed pill. Even if it does not become a failed pill, the final quality of the pill is not necessarily up to standard, is it? The steps of alchemy are complex and numerous; it is not this easy." Shangguan Luoyun smiled: "That makes sense, then let us continue to watch." Having said that, she clasped her hands behind her back and calmly watched Xu Chen, her eyes filled with considerable satisfaction.

Chen, my man, you are becoming more and more powerful.

At this moment, not only were the people outside the arena shocked, but even those inside were startled. They had just said Xu Chen was not dual-cultivating in both alchemy and martial arts, yet Xu Chen immediately refined a hundred spirit herbs simultaneously and succeeded.

Such powerful alchemy technique, they had never seen before. Ye Xuan, standing nearby, was so struck he nearly went dumb. He was so shocked he began to stutter: "T-this, is this real?"

The Spirit Venerable responded internally: "Sigh, this master was short-sighted. Although I was once a Wu Di, I have never seen such technique."

The Spirit Venerable looked at Xu Chen, filled with emotion.

He even thought, if only he had taken Xu Chen as his disciple. This youth, Xu Chen, will surely shock the entire continent in the future.

Ye Xuan's face felt as if it had been slapped, burning with pain, and he was extremely embarrassed. Meanwhile, Xu Chen, after merging the medicinal liquids of the hundred pills, remained completely at ease. He even had time to look at Ye Xuan: "See that, trash? Although I have only learned for a few days, it is enough to crush you."

Ye Xuan twitched at the corner of his mouth. Did this look like someone who had learned for only a few days? Yet he swore he had truly never seen Xu Chen refine pills before.

Moreover, this bastard refining a hundred pills simultaneously was bad enough, but he did not even use a pill furnace; it was truly absurd. If he had not witnessed it with his own eyes today, he would never have believed such a thing existed in this world.

Ye Xuan gritted his teeth: "Do not be arrogant. You have only merged the medicinal liquids; your pill embryo is not yet formed. Furthermore, without a pill furnace, it is extremely difficult to control the fire intensity. These medicinal liquids could explode at any moment." Xu Chen said calmly: "Ye Xuan, when you refine pills normally, how long does it take from the medicinal liquids to the pill embryo?"

Upon hearing this, Ye Xuan proudly declared: "I only need one hour to form the embryo of a seventh-grade pill. If it were anyone else, it would probably take two hours. What, do you think you are faster than me?"

In the midst of his words, Ye Xuan regained his confidence and once again looked down on Xu Chen. In this area, he felt he could surely crush Xu Chen.

Hearing this, the crowd outside the arena nodded silently.

Forming the pill embryo from the medicinal liquids in one hour is actually considered fast. Basically, a normal seventh-grade pill takes about an hour and a half. Lu Chong praised: "Even I, as a ninth-grade alchemist, need half an hour. This Ye Xuan is good." Shangguan Luoyun smiled lightly: "What if Xu Chen is even faster?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Chong's face instantly froze: "Impossible to be faster. Xu Chen is currently at most a seventh-grade alchemist." Chi Lian curved her red lips: "Sect Master implies, what if..." Lu Chong: "..."

Upon hearing this, a bead of cold sweat began to form on Lu Chong's forehead. No way, could Xu Chen be even faster than this? Anyway, he could not imagine how it could be any faster.

At this moment, Xu Chen said calmly: "One hour? Truly trash."

Upon hearing this, the many alchemists inside and outside the arena instantly froze. Forming the pill embryo from the medicinal liquids of a seventh-grade pill in one hour, how is that trash?

Ye Xuan also angrily said: "If you have the ability, try forming the pill embryo from the medicinal liquids in half an hour." Xu Chen sneered: "Half an hour is also garbage; do not mention it in front of me." Lu Chong twitched at the corner of his mouth. Half an hour is garbage? Could you possibly do it in a quarter of an hour?

Impossible. There is no such superb alchemy technique in this world; it is absolutely impossible.

Ye Xuan, unwilling to yield, gritted his teeth: "You boast quite well, but how many hours do you think you need?"

Xu Chen shook his head: "Hours? Sorry, I do not calculate my alchemy by hours. I can form the pill embryo right now."

"Voom!"

Having said that, Xu Chen secretly employed a special technique.

In an instant, the medicinal liquid shrank and solidified, gradually transforming into the pill embryo.

About ten breaths later, which was while he was still speaking, the pill embryo was completely presented before everyone.

Xu Chen said with ease: "There, trash, do you see?" At this moment, everyone was once again dumbfounded.

It, it did not even take half a quarter of an hour to completely form the pill embryo? Damn it!

People usually take several days to refine a single seventh-grade pill. Looking at your situation, it seems you can finish refining it in at most one hour.

First, refining a hundred spirit herbs simultaneously without a single one damaged; this was already astonishing.

Immediately after, condensing the medicinal liquids into the pill embryo within just a few breaths; this was a genius appearing out of nowhere.

Such a powerful technique; I'm afraid few alchemists in the entire Tianzun Imperial Dynasty could match it. Even Lu Chong would feel ashamed in the face of such a technique.

As expected, Lu Chong said in a daze: "I did not expect there to be such a genius in this world; I was ignorant."

Everyone also looked stunned. Forming the pill embryo in a few breaths?

If they had not seen it with their own eyes, no matter what others said, they would never have believed it. Xu Chen's talent is truly terrifying.

Shangguan Luoyun and Chi Lian's mouths hung open, their jade hands covering their mouths. Oh my god, Xu Chen is too strong. It was not that they were not shocked; this move was simply terrifying.
