Chapter 1613

1613 Watch It, We’re Outside! (3)
“Thank you,” Wang Teng thanked the representative.
“We have prepared the spiritual herbs you need and cleared an alchemy room. Please follow me.” The middle aged fellow raised a hand and led the way.
The hero followed and entered the Secondary Career Alliance.
“What are you waiting for? Come on.”
“Oh!” Zhuang Caixuan snapped out of her stupor and quickly followed. She whispered, “Are you really a grandmaster?”
“Don’t I look like one?” the young hero replied.
Which part of you looks like one? She wanted to complain but she didn’t say it aloud. She just rolled her eyes in secret.
She recalled what she said to him with some embarrassment.
Her family didn’t have any grandmaster-level pills.
They reached an empty alchemy room a short time later. The senior said, “Here it is.”
“Thank you.” The hero nodded.
“I’ll take my leave first. Call me anytime through the virtual network if you have any questions,” said the representative.
The young hero gave some reminders to the governor’s daughter and then entered the room.
Zhuang Caixuan blinked, then looked away once his young guest left. She was filled with curiosity and interest.
Wang Teng is indeed different. Not only was he powerful; he was also a grandmaster alchemist. His talent was scary.
She didn’t doubt the hero’s claims, given the middle aged man’s deference. Not everyone could receive such treatment.
Many thoughts went through her mind. She sat on a chair next to the alchemy room’s entrance and waited in silence.
The hero saw a large box upon entering the room. He used his account’s password to open it and found all the ingredients required to make the Thousand Grass Elixir inside. A thick fragrance wafted over.
“Three sets of herbs. This should be enough to make some pills for Grandmaster Hua Yuan and the rest.” Wang Teng nodded, feeling satisfied. He waved a hand and a black furnace emerged, landing above the exhaust port.
The Black Meteorite Furnace!
It was his own go-to artifact for pill making.
He sat cross-legged in front of it and released spiritual power while silently collecting the nearby attribute bubbles.
Alchemy*60
Alchemy*80
Alchemy*50
…
The area was filled with alchemy rooms specially arranged for grandmasters. Hence, there were many bubbles to collect.
Wang Teng’s alchemy started to rise quickly as a result.
Alchemy: 6500/10000 (grandmaster)
He previously had five thousand or so points. Now, it was at 6,500, which was enough for him to make a grandmaster sixth-level pill.
Furthermore, his alchemic level was high and was powered with a strong spirit. Adding his divine flames, making the elixir would be a walk in the park.
He blinked, then quickly closed his eyes to recall the steps in the prescription.
His eyes opened abruptly some time later. The Soul of Thousand Beasts Flame came out of his body and burned under the furnace.
The Thousand Grass Elixir required many herbs nourished by star beast blood. Since the flame originated from star beast souls, the latter was beneficial for the pill-making process; it was the best choice to heat up the furnace.
The flame patterns on the Black Meteorite Furnace were lighting up as if alive. The shapes were varied; sometimes a whirlpool while other times a dragon. The imaging seemed divine.
Wang Teng wasn’t paying attention to the visuals, though. His gaze remained calm as he waved a hand and pulled a few hundred herbs with spiritual power to send them to the furnace.
There were more than a thousand herbs; the time needed to refine them all would be considerable. However, his spirit was powerful, so he could refine a few hundred at a time. This would save him a lot of time.
The bundle of herbs turned into a few hundred balls of flames, floating inside the artifact.
Ashes kept floating down.
Some time later, the refinement was completed; a few turned into liquid while others changed into powder form and floated inside the furnace.
The young hero released spiritual power again and grabbed another batch to repeat the process.
Time passed slowly…
The entire refining process took three hours!
Actually, he had already shortened the refining process by a large margin. It would have taken a whole day if it were another grandmaster.
Furthermore, succeeding the first time would be difficult to achieve.
The young hero let out a long sigh; the refining process went smoothly. There was a small accident during the process, but this was solved. No ingredient was wasted.
It was worth mentioning that he managed to produce all three sets of ingredients.
Well, he just wanted to save time!
Once everything was done, the hero closed his eyes and rested for a few minutes. Then, he opened them again and started combining the few thousand ingredients according to the sequence in the prescription.
That was the toughest pill making stage. The Thousand Grass Elixir required many spiritual herbs, so the chances of accidents happening during this step increased greatly, too. Any mistake could equate to a complete failure.
Wang Teng turned serious as he carefully combined elements, not daring to be careless in the slightest.
Time flew.
…
Zhuang Caixuan felt bored after waiting outside. She pouted, having thought at first that her visit to the Secondary Career Alliance would be interesting. However, she sat there and waited all day long.
She really wanted to go in and watch how the young hero worked, but he told her to wait outside. Barging in was not something she would dare do.
Furthermore, she knew alchemists detested having others watching them making pills..
Her sole choice at the moment was to wait outside.
“Caixuan?” said a confused voice, somewhere by the corridor nearby.
Zhuang Caixuan was confused for a second, but then felt surprised and elated when she noticed who iti was. “Sister Clara!” The young girl ran to hug the lady, rubbing her face against her chest.
Well, considering her height, she could only reach the other lady’s chest.
The latter, named Clara, was a tall and shapely woman. Her chest bulged when the young girl stuffed her face between them.
“Watch it. We’re outside,” Clara whispered as she hurriedly glanced around. She didn’t expect Zhuang Caixuan to act so boldly.
