Chapter 1698 - 1726: Lu Feng Palace Master
Even Dan Xuan didn’t have the courage to refine pills and conceded without even trying, with a bitter expression on his face.
However, none of the people present looked down on Dan Xuan for conceding without competing; everyone knew the gap was too vast to have any semblance of competitiveness.
It’s important to remember that Ye Feng managed to create a super-grade Dao Qi Pill, whereas Dan Xuan is only a second-tier Dao Level Alchemy Master. Even if his skills are remarkable, at best he could only refine a middle-grade Dao Qi Pill. To ask Dan Xuan to produce a super-grade Dao Qi Pill is simply impossible.
There’s no need for a competition; even if a contest were held, it would only result in humiliation.
At this moment, Liu Huayuan looked at Ye Feng as if he were seeing a monster. He hadn’t expected Ye Feng to be so terrifying, his pill refinement skills are simply unheard of...
Nonetheless, Ye Feng remained calm and composed, as if he had done something incredibly simple and easy.
"Good! A remarkable super-grade Dao Qi Pill. I hadn’t expected our Spirit Martial Continent to produce such a prodigious Alchemy Master!" At that moment, a voice echoed from the Pill Hall’s entrance, causing everyone to turn toward its source, where a group emerged from the hall.
That group carried an undeniable air of arrogance, leaving an impression of nobility.
At the forefront was an elderly man in a purple-gold robe, whose cultivation level wasn’t low, having reached the Great Perfection of Entering Dao. He was accompanied by two guards at the initial stage of Asking.
The old man exuded a certain authoritative presence, and upon seeing him, everyone’s expressions turned respectful, as they clasped their fists and bowed: "Greetings, Hall Master Lu!" This person was none other than the Pill Hall Master of the Spirit Martial Continent, Lu Feng.
Behind Lu Feng were several elders from the Pill Hall, each a formidable Alchemy Master.
Lu Feng himself was a fourth-tier Dao Level Alchemy Master, the premier Alchemy Master beneath the Holy Land.
Lu Feng looked at Ye Feng with a gaze of appreciation: "No Cauldron Alchemy, I’ve never seen such a method. Despite studying alchemy for two millennia, I still encounter masterful talents like you. May I ask where you received your training and how you are addressed?" Everyone’s gaze focused on Ye Feng.
Ye Feng responded calmly: "I am Ye Feng, an Outer Court disciple of the Daoist School..."
"What!" Everyone was stunned; they hadn’t expected Ye Feng, such a talent, to be merely an Outer Court disciple of the Daoist School, which surprised them greatly, revealing an unexpected look in their eyes.
Lu Feng straightforwardly invited: "Ye Feng, I see your prowess in alchemy as extraordinary, at least at a third-tier Dao Level. Such talent should not be an Outer Court disciple; it’s simply wasting your potential. Why not join our Pill Hall? I would personally recommend you to join the Holy Land Pill Hall. With your gifts, should you join,
your alchemy skills would surely rise rapidly, and becoming a Holy Pill Master wouldn’t be difficult. You might even have the potential to become the Pill Hall Master of the Holy Land. How about it?"
"What!" Everyone was surprised by Lu Feng’s direct recruitment of Ye Feng.
Ye Feng remained calm, showing no emotional fluctuation: "Master Lu, you should know the purpose of my visit; I intend to challenge all your Alchemy Masters. Will you accept or not?"
Lu Feng furrowed his brows: "Ye Feng, why go against our Pill Hall? You’re aware of our Hall’s influence in the Martial Arts World. With your talents, joining our Hall would be the best choice!"
Ye Feng sneered: "Such a small Pill Hall is insignificant; do you think with your alchemy skills that I’m worthy of joining?"
"Bastard! How dare you speak such words?" Ye Feng’s words immediately incited anger among those present; they hadn’t expected him to be so arrogant, revealing their desire to kill, knowing that if he couldn’t be recruited, he must be slain, otherwise, his terrifying alchemy talent would threaten the Hall’s position. The Hall wouldn’t allow such geniuses who aren’t part of it.
"Daring to insult our Pill Hall; Master Lu, what’s the point of talking? Issue the Pill Hall’s pursuit order to slay this person!"
"Exactly, the Pill Hall’s name can’t be tarnished; he dares to belittle us, kill him!" The crowd clamored.
Yet, Master Lu remained calm, asking Ye Feng: "Ye Feng, are you certain you want to challenge all our Alchemy Masters?" Ye Feng nodded without hesitation: "Indeed!"
"Alright! I accept!" Master Lu readily agreed, causing everyone to become anxious. "Master Lu, you shouldn’t; this person is at least a third-tier Dao Level Alchemy Master, possibly reaching the fourth."
Master Lu retorted dismissively: "So what? Do you distrust me?"
With those words, Master Lu looked at Ye Feng: "Ye Feng, I accept your challenge. However, if you lose, you must offer your alchemy techniques to our Hall, including your pill formulas and the secrets behind your No Cauldron Alchemy, and take your own life here. Agree?"
"Agree!" Ye Feng consented without hesitation, shocking Liu Huayuan.
Liu Huayuan hadn’t expected Ye Feng to be so confident, knowing that Master Lu could refine top-grade fourth-tier Dao Pills, and despite Ye Feng’s alchemy skills, challenging the entire Pill Hall seemed a difficult task.
If Ye Feng lost, he would not only lose his alchemy secrets but also pay with his life.
Seeing Ye Feng agreeing so readily, Lu Feng smiled slightly, continuing: "Can we set the rules?"
