I Can Fix My Talent in Hundred Lives-Chapter 211 - 177: Tier Three Top Level Alchemist

The hustle and bustle at Gathering Pill Square gradually calmed down, and the final rankings were settled through the deliberation of five Grandmasters.

When the presiding elder announced "Thirteenth place, Chen Xihuo," Chen Xihuo standing behind the Pill Platform let out a long breath, sweat from his forehead slid down his jawline, dripping onto the Cyan Ink Jade ground and spreading a small wet mark.

He respectfully bowed towards Chen Sheng on the high platform, his eyes showing both relief and a hint of excitement.

...

Yunlan Mountain, Chen Clan Hall.

Chen Xihuo was respectfully waiting by the side at this moment.

He held a Jade Bottle in his hand, containing an indigo-colored Elixir Pill, with a smooth pill body and clear Pill Patterns, it was indeed of Tier Two Top Level quality.

Chen Sheng raised his hand and patted his shoulder, a trace of gratification flashed in his eyes:

"Well done."

Chen Xihuo promptly put away the Elixir Pill, bowed deeply, and said: "Without father’s guidance, your son would not have progressed so swiftly."

He had just passed eighty this year, with Late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivation paired with the identity of a Tier Two Top Level Alchemist, he was already a prominent figure among his peers, but in front of Chen Sheng, he always maintained a respectful and humble demeanor.

Chen Sheng’s expression remained neutral as he raised his eyebrows slightly; his son’s Alchemy Talent was indeed remarkable, with an extremely high sensitivity to fire control.

Compared to the two mediocre direct disciples from the previous life, he was far superior, roughly on par with Fang Lingxiao of the past.

He waved his hand: "Let’s go, I will take you to meet your seniors."

The two figures transformed into flowing light and flew towards Danxiao Peak outside the Dan Vein’s Outer Sect.

Fog shrouded the peak, with clusters of Alchemy Rooms scattered around the mountainside, occasionally, Pill Fragrance floated with fluctuating Spiritual Power, the sound of disciples reciting the Pill Scripture could be faintly heard.

Before an ancient palace, an elderly person with white hair and beard was sitting cross-legged; a set of worn Pill Furnace was placed on the stone table in front of him.

Seeing Chen Sheng’s arrival, the elderly person hurriedly stood up, his previously cloudy eyes instantly brightened:

"Fellow Daoist Micro-Image graces us with your presence, sorry for the lack of hospitality." 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂

After exchanging pleasantries, Chen Sheng introduced Chen Xihuo:

"This is Elder Mo Shan, the Guardian Master of the Danqing Hall, highly experienced."

Chen Xihuo promptly bowed in greeting: "Greetings, Elder!"

Mo Shan smiled kindly and lifted him up, his emaciated hand gently patting Chen Xihuo’s shoulder, his tone full of praise:

"Indeed, like father, like son! Seeing your steadiness, you are destined to be a pillar of the Alchemy Dao."

He turned to look at Chen Sheng, his eyes filled with gratitude:

"Special thanks to Fellow Daoist Micro-Image for refining the Longevity Pill for me last time, with two Pill Patterns of high quality, it forcefully extended my lifespan by fifty years."

Chen Sheng smiled casually: "It was the least I could do."

He had known Mo Shan from Danqing Hall, considered old acquaintances; this elderly cultivator had long approached the limit of his lifespan, taking the first Longevity Pill.

Later, as he approached the lifespan limit again, he sought another Longevity Pill, coinciding with Chen Sheng expanding the Dan Vein business, he came to request at his door.

For that batch of Elixir Pills, Chen Sheng used West Sea Spirit Turtle Shell as the medicinal guide, refining two Pill Patterns, allowing Mo Shan to forcibly extend fifty years more.

Since then, this cultivator with very old credentials in the Outer Sect became a reliable ally for him at the Dan Vein’s Outer Sect.

"Rest assured, as long as I am at Danxiao Peak, I will ensure Xihuo receives no grievances."

Mo Shan beat his chest to promise, then turned to Chen Xihuo: "Soon, I will take you to receive the Alchemy Room and classics."

Chen Sheng instructed Chen Xihuo to express his gratitude again, exchanged a few words with Mo Shan, then transformed into flowing light and returned to Nine Cloud Peak.

...

Thirty years passed like the blink of an eye!

On this day, within the Nine Cloud Peak Fire Chamber, heat waves rolled like tides, the Purple Gold Pill Furnace suspended in mid-air, the flowing Profound Patterns on the furnace body were shining brightly under the high temperature.

Chen Sheng stood in front of the furnace, the slight undulations beneath the Profound Silk Daoist Robe, the speed of his incantation at his fingertips grew faster and faster, the fire sea within the pill furnace suddenly exploded, transforming into four distinct fire aspects.

Leading was a Cyan-Scaled Fire Dragon, its horns resembling coral as it raised its head, followed by a Vermilion Bird, its tail feathers dragging flame light like flowing jade.

Additionally, a turtle shell with fire patterns like Black Tortoise, the dark blue flames flowing between the patterns capable of devouring all cold air, and a fierce fiery beast resembling a White Tiger, its fang-tipped sparks carving a sharp sound through the air.

Four fire aspects hung within the Pill Furnace, the flames in their eye sockets unusually lively, as if possessing a main consciousness, all gazing at Chen Sheng, awaiting instructions.

This was the manifestation of Chen Sheng’s mastery in fire technique; these fire aspects had preliminarily birthed fire spirits and could be classified as Tier Four.

"Rise!"

Just as Chen Sheng’s low shout faded, the Cyan Dragon leaped first, its crimson flame tail sweeping across as the remaining fire aspects moved in response.

The Vermilion Bird held a strand of starfire and tossed it towards the center, while the Black Tortoise absorbed and exhaled with its blue flames to envelop it, and the White Tiger used its sharp claws to carve intricate array patterns in the void.

The four fire aspects entwined, devoured, and merged, the crimson and blue weaving into a spiral light band, the Vermilion Bird’s jade fire darting through like an arrow, finally forming a naturally integrated Four Symbols True Spirit Array.

The array steadily reached Tier Three High Grade!

Chen Sheng flicked his fingers, and the long-prepared Tier Three Top Grade spiritual material "Ice Crystal Snow Lotus" just approached the array.

The Black Tortoise dashed forward, gently inhaling, and the ice shell of the lotus vaporized into white mist, the silver-white heart slowly spreading under the wrapping jade fire, with the dew on the petals dropping towards the array, surprisingly held up by the crimson flame without falling.

"White Tiger!"

With a light shout from Chen Sheng, the Tier Three Top Grade "Thunder-Blending Iron Wood" laced with purple lightning just entered the array, and the White Tiger fire aspect pounced fiercely, its fangs tearing open the wood grain instantly, pale purple thunder patterns clashing with fierce flames, erupting into crackling rain.

Chen Sheng formed spells with his hands, controlling the blue flames spat out by the Black Tortoise fire aspect to smooth the thunder patterns one by one, allowing the essence of the iron wood to blend into the surging fire waves.

As the most precious "Taiqing Golden Essence Fruit" transformed into golden liquid and fell, the Cyan Dragon fire aspect let out a resonant dragon’s roar, its scales expanding three feet, holding the golden liquid steadily in mid-air.

The four fire aspects exerted their strength simultaneously, crimson, cyan, blue, and purple flames like living creatures burrowing into the golden liquid, forcing out the essence contained and merging it with the essence of other spiritual materials.

"Kan-Li Balance, Water-Fire Harmony!"

Chen Sheng’s voice carried a peculiar rhythm, and the four fire aspects suddenly changed formation.

The Cyan Dragon coiled into a ring, the Vermilion Bird placed the lotus heart in the ring, the Black Tortoise’s blue flames wove a screen on the outer layer, while the White Tiger continued to flap the flame screen with its claws, compressing the fused paste further and further.

The originally surging colored flames gradually unified, turning into pure sky blue flame light, its temperature skyrocketing several times higher than before, even the void was burned into slight fissures.

The mixed paste with silver-white snow lotus, thunder pattern purple lightning, and dragon saliva golden light rotated within the blue flames.

With the refinement of the three main materials completed, Chen Sheng promptly added seventeen types of Tier Three auxiliary spiritual materials.

"Go!"

Chen Sheng, with hands forming spells, manipulated the Grand Array to evolve invisible forces of the Four Symbols, quickly melting these spiritual materials, the gray-black impurities being stripped away by the fire array, dissipating into blue smoke.

The paste’s volume shrank gradually, but its color grew increasingly transparent; faintly, nine essences floated within, like nine small fish swimming freely in a jade-green wave.

With the veins on Chen Sheng’s forehead pulsing continuously, maintaining such lively fire aspect array consumed a significant amount of heart spirit.

He could clearly feel the Golden Core within his Dantian spinning at high speed, golden mana continuously flowing along the meridians towards his fingertips, connecting with the consciousness of the four fire aspects.

The Cyan Dragon’s breath grew heavy, the Vermilion Bird’s tail feathers dimmed slightly...

"Come!"

He promptly absorbed the prepared elixir pills, which turned into warm currents upon reaching his stomach, gradually restoring his state.

When the paste had shrunk to the size of a fist, golden light in Chen Sheng’s eyes merged with the flame light of the fire aspects:

"Congeal!"

The four fire aspects simultaneously issued a long cry!

The Cyan Dragon opened its mouth to spray out the final streak of crimson flame, the Vermilion Bird folded its wings to wrap the flame light into a sphere, with the other fire aspects transforming into streamers and diving into the flame sphere.

The sky blue paste emitted a crisp hum under extreme compression, the outer blue flame suddenly collapsed inward, countless Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi frantically infused into the pill ball, nurturing the Pill Spirit!

Chen Sheng finally exhaled a long breath, the subsequent process would now be simpler.

As time slowly passed, accompanying the last Pill Collection Technique falling into the Pill Furnace.

The Purple Gold Pill Furnace trembled violently, the furnace lid was "clanged" and flew off.

A sky blue elixir pill the size of a dragon’s eye broke out of the furnace, room full of fragrance, spirit light swirling over the pill body like a living dragon, after circling three times in the air, it was seized by Chen Sheng and placed into his palm.

The pill was warm to the touch, a cool breath spread along his arm to his whole body, instantly calming the spiritual power agitated by excessive consumption.

Chen Sheng carefully inspected the pill in his palm, the pill body round and full, spirit patterns continuous and clear, its Pill Spirit exceptionally lively, precisely the traits of a Tier Three Top Level Elixir.

"Finally succeeded, Tier Three Top Level Taiqing Dust Transformation Pill!"

"Two hundred and fifty-five years, finally achieving the status of a Tier Three Top Level Alchemist!"
