After exiting the Moon Reflecting Pavilion, Xiao Fan mounted the white jade tiger once again and urged it to head towards the City Lord's Mansion. On the way, when this fellow saw a young baby in the arms of a woman, Xiao Fan's uncontrollable bestial instincts erupted, and it wanted to devour the baby to relieve the bloodlust and desire to kill in its heart!
Then, Xiao Fan didn't hold back. Without saying anything, he raised his hand and fiercely pressed his finger on one of the vertebrae on its back.
The common weakness of all the tiger-like demonic beasts in the Central Emperor Realm was the cervical vertebrae on their backs. Once they were injured, they would feel excruciating pain all over their bodies, as if they were being bitten by thousands of insects. Furthermore, because their cervical vertebrae were sealed, they could not move their bodies. They could only endure the pain stiffly.
After that, the white jade tiger became much more obedient. At the same time, it was obviously more afraid of Xiao Fan. Then, it carried Xiao Fan on its back and continued to walk forward slowly.
As soon as they arrived at the gate of the City Lord's Mansion, Xiao Fan bumped into Shangguan Tong and Shangguan Chen.
"Xiao Fan!" Seeing Xiao Fan, Shangguan Tong shouted in surprise.
For the past few days, she had been restless. She had been looking for Xiao Fan everywhere, but she still couldn't find him. And because she couldn't find Xiao Fan, she didn't even eat much. She was so hungry that she had lost some weight.
At this moment, seeing Xiao Fan reappear, she was overjoyed.
"Xiao Fan!" Compared to Shangguan Tong's surprise, Shangguan Chen only had a dignified expression. Especially when he saw the white-headed, half-dead white jade tiger under Xiao Fan, he looked at Xiao Fan with even more uncertainty.
Now, all the forces in the city recognized Xiao Fan as a very powerful Array Master. He might even be stronger than Li Guangzheng, the president of the Linfeng Array Guild in Red Rock City. However, his cultivation was not worth mentioning. It was obvious that he was only in the Nirvana Transformation.
Right now. This white jade tiger was emitting a murderous aura. It was extremely ferocious and was definitely not to be trifled with. Furthermore, demonic beasts were known to be sensitive to the fluctuations of Array Masters. Once they felt that something was wrong, they would immediately flee. Therefore, it was impossible to rely on Array Masters to capture demonic beasts.
However, Xiao Fan was able to capture this white jade tiger. Then, it was him. How did he do it?
As for why they were sure that this white jade tiger was captured by Xiao Fan, it was very simple. Although they could not determine the true strength and level of the white jade tiger, it was not low. Demonic beasts like this tiger was not sold. because its entire body was full of treasures. As long as it was alive, it would be a source of income. Who would be foolish enough to sell it?
Who would sell it? to sell it. But at that time, they would usually kill them and sell them, trying to maximize the value of the Demonic Beasts!
Furthermore, none of the forces in Red Rock City had heard of anyone going to the primeval forest near Red Rock City to hunt demonic beasts. They also did not hear of any merchants from other cities passing by Red Rock City. Therefore, this white jade tiger was definitely not bought by Xiao Fan. It could only be caught by him.
"Roar!"
When the white jade tiger saw Shangguan Chen and felt his aura, it immediately looked at Shangguan Chen with interest and let out a low whimper.
However, the white jade tiger only glanced at Shangguan Chen for a moment before it lost interest. Its huge body simply climbed down, and it squinted its eyes to bask in the sun.
"I wonder if City Master Shangguan has an Alchemy Furnace that is above the Black Level?" Xiao Fan asked directly.
Central imperial realm's elixirs were usually divided into four levels: Heaven, Earth, Black, and Yellow. Of course, there were Immortal Elixirs, Divine Elixirs, Forbidden Elixirs, and other higher level elixirs. However, these higher level elixirs were usually not discussed because the difficulty of refining them was too high. The refining method and the Alchemy Furnace were needed. Medicinal herbs and so on were all problems. Therefore, for the vast majority of cultivators, the initial Heaven, Earth, Mystic, and Yellow level 4 medicinal pills were sufficient.
What Xiao Fan wanted to concoct was the Heaven Pill from the Heaven Earth Mystic Yellow. Even though concocting the Heaven Pill required a Heaven Grade Pill Furnace, Xiao Fan considered that Red Rock City was just a small city that couldn't be any more remote. Not to mention a Heaven Grade Alchemy Furnace, there might not even be an Earth Grade Alchemy Furnace. Therefore, Xiao Fan could only take a step back and use a Profound Grade Alchemy Furnace.
"Alchemy Furnace? You … want to refine elixirs? You … are an Alchemist? " Hearing Xiao Fan's words, Shangguan Chen did not answer immediately. Instead, he was stunned for a moment and asked with a trace of astonishment in his eyes.
"Yes!" Xiao Fan nodded his head and replied.
Shangguan Chen was speechless. Even the grey-robed elder behind him opened his mouth slightly in astonishment. Then, his face was filled with doubt and disbelief.
To be honest, Xiao Fan's array skills had already shocked the various forces in Red Rock City. This was because Xiao Fan looked like he was only in his twenties. However, he was already so proficient in array skills at such a young age. He might even be better than Li Guang Zheng, the president of the Windward Array Guild in Red Rock City. This was truly shocking.
If it were not for the two incidents that happened in the Windward Array Guild and the Beast Battle Arena, no one in the city would have believed that Xiao Fan's array skills were so high.
Moreover, it was precisely because Xiao Fan's mastery of formations was so high at such a young age, and he even knew extremely powerful secret formations that Sun Zhengwei, Han Wenbin, and the others couldn't help but suspect that Xiao Fan's origins might not be ordinary. It was possible that he came from a supreme force. Before they knew Xiao Fan's true identity and origins, they didn't dare to recklessly take revenge.
At this moment, Xiao Fan actually said that he knew how to refine elixirs. Not only was he an Array Master, he was also an Alchemist. He spanned across two professions. If he was considered a cultivator, he would have spanned across three professions. How could anyone believe this?
Being an alchemist didn't require talent and inheritance like being an array master. There were many more alchemists than array masters. Finding an alchemist to be one's teacher was also much easier than finding an array master. However, becoming an alchemist was still not an easy task.
Not to mention the deeper aspects, if one wanted to become an Alchemist of the lowest level, one must first memorize the three thousand most basic medicinal herbs' medicinal properties, medicinal theory, ratio, and related refining methods. Then, one must successfully refine one hundred and eight Yellow Grade First Grade Medicinal Pills and stabilize the success rate at eighty percent or above. Finally, one must pass the related certification and become a publicly recognized Alchemist of the lowest level.
Without reaching this step, if one dared to claim to be an Alchemist, then once exposed, if one's luck was bad, one would forever be labeled as a fake Alchemist. Even if one really became a qualified Alchemist in the future, no one would acknowledge it, and one would never be able to turn over a new leaf. If it was more serious, one would be killed in public out of anger, and then someone would take one's head to the World Alchemist Guild to receive a reward. This was not something impossible.
Now, Xiao Fan actually dared to claim that he was an Alchemist? He, he's not joking, right?
"Do I?" Xiao Fan interrupted Shangguan Chen's bewilderment and asked.
"Only the Golden Roc Trading Company has a Black Grade Alchemy Furnace in the entire Red Rock City. I don't have a Black Grade Alchemy Furnace here, let alone one above the Black Grade!" Shangguan Chen shook his head and said.
"At the very least, you should have a Yellow Grade Alchemy Furnace, right?" Hearing Shangguan Chen's words, Xiao Fan suddenly said helplessly, "Don't tell me you don't have a decent Alchemist under you?"
"I do have a few Yellow Grade Alchemy Furnaces, and one of them is even a Supreme-Grade Yellow Grade Alchemy Furnace!" Shangguan Chen nodded, and then he said with some surprise, "Indeed, I don't have any decent Alchemists under me. They are basically all Yellow Grade Fifth or Sixth Grade Alchemists, and the most capable among them is only a Yellow Grade Tenth Grade Alchemist!"
Elixirs in the Central imperial realm were divided into four grades: Heaven, Earth, Black, and Yellow. Within these four grades, each grade was further divided into ten grades, with Grade One being the lowest and Grade Ten being the highest. Alchemists who could refine a set number of Elixirs of a certain grade and maintain a success rate of 80% or above were those of a certain grade and grade.
"A Yellow Grade Alchemy Furnace it is then!" Xiao Fan frowned, and then he muttered helplessly, "It's not that we can't use it, but the success rate will be greatly reduced. Originally, I estimated that we could refine 18 Dragon Tiger Pills, but now it seems like we can only refine around 10!"
"Then there's no other way. Even the cleverest housewife can't cook a meal without rice!" The Final Magic Sword in Xiao Fan's body interrupted, "Why don't we just charge into the Golden Roc Trading Company and steal their Black Grade Alchemy Furnace? Anyway, those brats don't get along with us. Stealing from them is a piece of cake!"
"Forget it, it's too troublesome!" Xiao Fan shook his head and replied, "If we steal from them, they'll fly into a rage and curse at us. Then, they'll chase after us relentlessly. In order to prevent them from interfering with my alchemy, we can either kill them all or leave and waste time looking for a quiet place. Either way, it's a problem!"
"Alright then. Anyway, 10 Dragon Tiger Pills are enough. Boss, you've recovered quite a bit of energy. It's enough for us to leave Red Rock City and head to Sun Moon City, the capital of Tianqi County!" In the end, Mo Dao shrugged his shoulders and nodded. "And there, we can get even more precious medicinal ingredients and refine even higher level Heavenly Pills. We don't lack those eight Dragon Tiger Heavenly Pills!"
"Mm!" Xiao Fan nodded.
Shangguan Chen naturally couldn't hear the conversation between the Magic Sword and Xiao Fan, so he said to Xiao Fan, "If you need it, why don't you enter the residence? I'll get someone to prepare it!"
"Thank you!" Xiao Fan nodded and said, "Also, as a reward, if I refine more pills in the end, I'll give you a few extra pills!"
Xiao Fan originally wanted to give the White Jade Tiger to Shangguan Chen. However, he thought that the White Jade Tiger was wild and difficult to tame. He was afraid that Shangguan Chen wouldn't be able to control it. Moreover, he needed a mount to head to Sun Moon City, so he didn't give the White Jade Tiger to Shangguan Chen.
As for the Dragon Tiger Pills that he wanted to refine, although he estimated that there would be 10 pills, there should be one or two more pills. It didn't matter if he gave it to Shangguan Chen as a reward. (Not yet)
