"T-This..."
"Master Yan..."
The Senior Alchemists had so many questions in their head, but they failed to voice it out.
In the end, they could only call Master Yan... and simply answer the question they did not ask.
Master Yan said, "Mortal Grade, Human Grade, and even Earth Grade Pills have seven flas purity as its perfection. Pill resonance is achieved when six flas purity is manifested, but it’s not perfect yet.
When it has beco perfected and manifests seven flas, it is called Pill Apotheosis."
"Pill Apotheosis..."
The Senior Alchemists mumbled.
Of course, they were aware of the term, but there was not a single alchemist in history to manifest Pill Apotheosis and achieve the perfect purity of the pill.
Despite it being only in the Mortal Grade, the fact that Pill Apotheosis was difficult to achieve, even from a Master Alchemist, already showed how outstanding the boy below them has perford.
And for once... they were grateful to him.
Even Huo Wu, who has deep hatred for Liu Wei.
Simply because they witnessed a once in a millennia event.
"And when Pill Apotheosis is manifested, the pill will be able to summon a Pill Phantom, which blesses the surroundings, depending on its properties."
As the Pill Phantom raised the pill earlier, it suddenly released a rich Life Qi, to the point those who were sick in the city were cured.
Every single being was cured... except for one...
...
In the underground of the capital city of the Kingdom of Jinwu, there was a vast expanse of darkness that seed to loom a threatening existence.
Darkness creeped in every corner, but strangely, a shadow revealed a colossal being that has a wing as wide as the city itself.
It was sleeping peacefully, its body moved slowly, resuscitating... and also recuperating.
Suddenly, as the Pill Phantom blessed its surroundings from its seed, the wave was so wide it reached the colossal bird... that it awakened its golden eyes.
Its iris has a vigorous sun-like symbol... and a wave of flas gnawed on the darkness, as soon as it woke up.
It trembled.
"A natural alchemy prodigy? Just this perfect purity mortal grade alone already heals for ten years!"
Its voice was difficult to fathom its gender, but it was raging... thundering and the place was quivering.
Thankfully, the place, despite being underground, was a long way for the tremors to reach the surface.
"No! He must be mine!"
It was ready to flap its wings and escape the place, but then it realized it was hasty.
"Wait! Such a phenonon would certainly catch the eyes of those insects! I must be patient. I must utilize what I have!"
Then, it closed its eyes and humd... boiling the blood of the descendants of the first King of the Kingdom of Jinwu, for they... possessed its bloodline.
...
Soon, the Pill Phantom faded, not until she returned her seed to Liu Wei with a bright smile. Liu Wei, on the other hand, simply smiled in return, watching Mother Earth dissipate into the pill.
He scrutinized the pill and saw there were indeed seven flas on the surface. He sniffed the scent and was surprised by how vigorous the life Qi it radiated.
Liu Wei would not be even surprised that once it was consud from the dead—of course, not dead for long ago—they would be revived.
He mumbled. "This is so precious. It should only be mine."
As soon as he said so, Master Yan was about to announce, but then realized there were still nine other people, who were just about to finish concocting their pills.
He smiled.
Master Yan said, "Even if we are unable to persuade Liu Wei to beco a mber of the Alchemy Association, our future is still bright."
The Senior Alchemists nodded in delight.
Among other nine participants who were still concocting, at least three of them belonged to the Alchemy Association, and there were at least two who did not belong to any other factions.
The Alchemy Association would definitely offer them benefits of joining their association far bigger than the other factions could offer.
Furthermore, just as they were admiring the participants, Cai Hui had already finished concocting her pills and had achieved the pill resonance.
Even when the Master Alchemist told them that Cai Hui has already been able to manifest pill resonance before, seeing it with their own eyes, they could still not help but be shocked.
After all, Pill Resonance was difficult to manifest, even more so when they were still in the Body Tempering Stage.
It also showed that Cai Hui had indeed achieved the minor completion of Dao of Alchemy, like what the Master Alchemist had said.
One of the Senior Alchemists teased the Master Alchemist, "It seems there will be another Master Alchemist that is far more talented than you, Master Yan."
Master Yan chuckled and nodded. "And I’m so delighted to hear that. If a Master Alchemist and a president of our association has talent that even reaches the Spirit Ascension Domain, our Alchemy Association would grow."
"But that doesn’t an that Cai Hui will not be limited to here? She might want to ascend to the Spirit Ascension Domain and leave us, right?"
Master Yan simply smiled and said, "Of course, she will leave. However, don’t forget that our president in the past, younger ones, beca president and led the association after so ti before leaving. As long as Cai Hui has cented her legacy as a president of the Alchemy Association, even when she leaves and ascends, our Alchemy Association will still grow."
The Senior Alchemist nodded and heaved a sigh of relief.
After all, it appeared that the Master Alchemist already knew what would happen and how he would act.
As expected of the Master Alchemist and the president of the Alchemy Association, he knew how to handle things in an optimistic way.
However, there was still one problem that Huo Wu noticed.
He asked, "Or what if she will leave the association to follow that boy."
Everyone turned quiet.
They glanced at Master Yan, hoping to give them an assurance.
They heaved a sigh of relief when they saw Master Yan smile.
"Then, leave her be. In fact, her future is brighter if she follows that guy. No matter what, the fact that she is an alchemist in our association and has beco my disciple before following that guy is enough to inform every sects, factions, and kingdoms in the Mortal Domain, even in the Spirit Ascension Domain, increasing our status.
Don’t forget there’s a very good reason why even a kingdom would go to such lengths to befriend a single individual..."
The Senior Alchemists quietly applauded the Master Alchemist’s wisdom.
They stared at him with eyes that scread of admiration.
Master Yan simply smiled and continued, "And when that boy becos a Grandmaster Alchemist... and possibly a Divine Fla Alchemist... then, everyone will know about Cai Hui. Then, everyone will know that Cai Hui was once my apprentice. Then, everyone will know that a Divine Fla Alchemist had participated in the competition here.
Then, everyone will know, even in the Spirit Ascension Domain, of a certain Alchemy Association of the Kingdom of Jinwu."
At this mont, the Senior Alchemists were unable to hold back themselves from clapping on Master Yan’s words.
His wisdom and optimism instantly changed their perspective about the future of the Alchemy Association.
Master Yan, on the other hand, simply smiled and waved his hand, still watching the participants finish their pills concocting as he had already decided the top ten winners of the Radian Cauldron Assembly.
He said, "Everyone, prepare to accommodate alchemists from the Spirit Ascension Domain. If there’s soone who visited, seemingly being a Master Alchemist, then don’t forget to inform and I will welco them by myself."
Every Senior Alchemist, and even his first disciple, nodded sternly.
One of the Senior Alchemists asked, "But, will they not inquire about that boy? How about we focus on his accommodation at first, or even place our whole attention on how to invite him to chat with us and celebrate the Radiant Cauldron Assembly."
The Master Alchemist grinned.
"Don’t worry. I just received a call and confird he is a friend of that boy. He told he will try to persuade that boy into having a conversation with us. But he warned us that if that boy rejected us, then we must not force him."
"Who is that friend? Why does it seem he holds far more power than us to talk to you that way?" Huo Wu asked in a dissatisfied tone.
Master Yan glared at him and said, "Because he does."
Huo Wu was so taken aback that he was unable to retort.
The Senior Alchemists grinned at him and stared at him with a mocking gaze.
Huo Wu was infuriated but he was helpless.
As much as he wanted to take revenge for the humiliation he felt at the mont, he knew he did not hold power... even if he hired assassins.
After all, the guards of each individual present... was as strong as the imperial guard.
It explained how influential and powerful alchemists were.
They were treated as equal to the noble of the Kingdom of Jinwu.
That was why, aside from becoming an imperial scholar to hold a position in the Kingdom of Jinwu, many sought to beco an alchemist of the Alchemy Association to change their life.
For even the Kingdom of Jinwu held the alchemist status as high as the noble...
