"I actually spent five Quenching Flame Pills to break through to Rank 8. How much do I need to break through to Rank 9? It looks like just two patterned pills are not enough. I have to raise the quality of the pills to three patterned …"
Zhou Yang furrowed his brows at the fact that he had to spend five Quenching Flame Pills to break through from level seven to level eight with 75% purity.
"Brother Liu Xing, are you there?"
After a while, Xiang Yuanjiu's voice came from outside the cave. Zhou Yang quickly went out.
"Brother Xiang, did something happen?" Zhou Yang asked, feeling suspicious.
"Nothing. I just obtained some materials. That way, we can sell them for a hundred Peak Grade Astral Jades," Xiang Yuanjiu said joyfully.
"How did you get them?"
Zhou Yang felt suspicious. In just a few days, Xiang Yuanjiu managed to obtain ten sets of materials. This speed shocked him.
"We will talk about this later. Right now, the most important thing is to refine the pills and raise the money," Xiang Yuanjiu said anxiously.
Zhou Yang smiled and immediately took out the ninety Astral Jades that Mu Xinya gave him. He said, "Here are ninety Astral Jades. I will give you the rest tomorrow. If it is not enough, let me know."
"This … why are you so fast …"
"I have my ways," Zhou Yang said with a smile.
Xiang Yuanjiu put away the Astral Jades and did not ask any more questions. After a while, an apologetic expression appeared on his face. He said, "Brother, I was indeed suspicious of your motives earlier. I was being narrow-minded."
"It's fine. This is human nature. If it were me, I would be suspicious as well. That's right, you mentioned the materials earlier …" Zhou Yang asked.
"It's like this. Before Elder Brother Field Mouse fought with Berserk Sword, he told us that there were materials for the Quenching Flame Pill in a cave to the west of the trash mountain. After that, we went to take a look. There were indeed a lot of them. At that time, we did not think too much about it. However, we discovered that the materials for the Quenching Flame Pill would appear every once in a while.
"No wonder you have so many materials."
Speaking of this, Zhou Yang got Xiang Yuanjiu to bring him to that place. Xiang Yuanjiu did not reject him.
After arriving at the cave, Zhou Yang discovered that there were many plants on the ground. There were also materials for the Quenching Flame Pill. However, they were all collected.
"Come to think of it, it's strange. No matter how clean we clean this place, it will become green in a few days. Fortunately, this place is relatively hidden, and the plants growing outside are also ordinary plants, so no one has noticed it."
Zhou Yang nodded. He searched the ground for a long time but could not find the reason. Greedy Soul could not find the ground.
He wanted to dig up the ground to take a look, but it was obvious that he had underestimated Xiang Yuanjiu. In fact, Xiang Yuanjiu had already dug up the ground. Other than soil, there was only stone. There was nothing else.
Zhou Yang had no choice but to leave. For the next few days, he continued to refine the Quenching Flame Pill. However, this time, his target was the Two-Stripe Quenching Flame Pill.
On the fifth day, Mu Xinya's people came to rush the pills.
"Although I successfully used the Black Demon Pill Seal to refine the Two-Stripe Quenching Flame Pill, this kind of Star Pill cannot be improved any further. If I want to directly refine the Two-Stripe Quenching Flame Pill, I'm afraid I'll have to practice for a few more days."
Zhou Yang took the initiative to send Zhou Yang to the foot of the mountain. Along the way, she tried to find out more about Zhou Yang.
This time, Mu Xinya took the initiative to send Zhou Yang to the foot of the mountain. Along the way, she tried to find out more about Zhou Yang.
"Little Sister Ya, I knew you would be tricked by him."
As the two of them walked, Cai Liangchen appeared.
"Senior Brother Cai, why are you here?" Mu Xinya asked suspiciously.
"Little Sister Ya, I just went to the Freedom Cave to ask around. A few of my Alchemist friends said that they have never heard of a person called Liu Xing in the Alchemy world. He is at best an Alchemy Attendant. He might even have been lucky enough to find the Quenching Flame Pill in the trash," Cai Liangchen said as he glanced at Zhou Yang.
"This … that is impossible …" Mu Xinya shook her head.
"Why is it impossible? Little Sister Ya, the reason why he said he was an Alchemist and made a deal with you is to make you think he is an Alchemist. He is obviously drooling over your beauty and status."
Cai Liangchen's voice grew louder, attracting the attention of many people. Soon, a group of curious people surrounded them.
"I already said it. Whether you believe me or not is up to you. It has nothing to do with me."
Zhou Yang frowned and immediately walked back.
"Wait!"
Cai Liangchen's expression turned cold as he extended his hand to stop Zhou Yang.
"I don't care if you lie to others. However, you cannot lie to Little Sister Ya. Today, either you prove that you are an Alchemist or you tell everyone that you are a swindler and scram from Dragon Tail Mountain."
"I do not have the time to play house with you," Zhou Yang shook his head.
"Hmph! Even if you don't want to, you still have to," Cai Liangchen's body trembled after he spoke. The aura of the Mercury Realm spread out from his body.
"Liu Xing, if you are really an Alchemist, then prove it. After all, it is not a big deal," Mu Xinya said anxiously.
Zhou Yang took a deep breath and stretched out his hand. A fiery light appeared in front of his palm and a pill seal appeared in the air.
"This is a pill seal, I have seen it before," someone in the crowd exclaimed.
"That's right, this is indeed a pill seal. Furthermore, it is the pill seal of the Quenching Flame Pill."
"It looks like this Liu Xing is really an Alchemist. Otherwise, how could he condense a pill seal …"
As the surrounding crowd discussed, Cai Liangchen's face turned green and red.
"Even if you can condense a pill seal, it does not mean that you can refine the Two-Line Quenching Flame Pill," Cai Liangchen said loudly.
"Whether I can or not has anything to do with you. Do I have to prove that I know how to refine pills when I sell Cave Master Mu the pill?" Zhou Yang said coldly.
Cai Liangchen was momentarily at a loss for words.
"You can't say that. After all, you are the one who said that you are an Alchemist. If it is as Brother Cai said, you are trying to deceive Pavilion Master Mu to gain her trust. That is a huge matter."
"That's right. Since you say that you are the one who refined this pill, then refine it for us to see. Wouldn't that prove it?"
"I feel that what you said is wrong. He has already proven that he is an Alchemist. Why does he still need to refine the Two-Line Quenching Flame Pill? Could it be that we Alchemists can only say that we are not Alchemists when we sell Medicinal Pills? If we do, do we need proof?" a youth wearing the Alchemy Alliance's Inferior Grade Alchemist said unhappily.
The crowd could not help but nod. At this moment, Cai Liangchen suddenly smiled and said, "That's right. There is indeed no need for proof. However, Alchemists have their own rules. Since I suspect you, how about we compete according to the rules of Alchemists?"
"Compete?"
Zhou Yang smiled, "The rules of Alchemists are that the challenger has to take out his most precious Alchemy treasure as the wager. If he loses, the wager belongs to the person who challenged me. What can you take out as the wager?"
"Hmph, do you think I do not know the rules?"
