The Reborn Pill Emperor

Ye Bufan had been in seclusion refining pills in the Pill Clarity Hall for a full ten days! These ten days were absolutely torture to Fourth Palace Lord. He knew that Ye Bufan was refining a high-grade pill, but he could not enter and observe. His heart was itching, and he even faintly regretted his last order.    

Chen Wushuang also had a headache. Every day, his master would come a few times. He would walk around in front of him without saying a word. Of course, Chen Wushuang understood what his master was thinking. However, his master had given him an order. As a disciple, he didn't dare disobey.    

Chen Wushuang was even thinking about what he should do if his master really wanted to barge in. Should he really organize a team of guards to stop his master...    

After Yunqing returned to her room and locked herself in her room for two days, the anger in her heart dissipated a lot. She came to Danqing Palace again, but she did not approach the alchemy hall. She just watched from afar and waited...    

Another five days passed.    

If it was not for the faint medicinal fragrance that drifted out of the Pill Cleansing Hall, almost everyone would have started to suspect that Ye Bufan had smashed the pill and was too embarrassed to come out. After all, he was only at the Seventh Rank of Qi Stage, and it was almost impossible for him to persist in concocting the pill for half a month. This was also one of the reasons why a Spirit Stage cultivation base was needed to become a high-grade Alchemist in this world.    

"What is this damn brat trying to do?" Fourth Palace Lord paced back and forth in front of Chen Wushuang and cursed.    

"Why don't master go and take a look now?" Chen Wushuang took a step forward to show his worry. Although Ye Bufan had an amazing talent in alchemy, half a month had passed. Chen Wushuang began to lose all hope.    

"Let's wait a little longer! We'll talk about it after today!" Fourth Palace Lord hesitated for a moment and said. However, it was not hard to see the disappointment in his eyes. Ye Bufan must have really failed.    

Unexpectedly, as soon as Fourth Palace Lord finished speaking, a loud sound was suddenly heard from the Pure Pill Hall. A red light flashed and illuminated the entire sky. An extremely rich pill fragrance was immediately emitted.    

Yunqing, who was far away, saw this scene and didn't think much about it. In a flash, she had already arrived beside Fourth Palace Lord and was about to charge into the Danqing Palace. She suddenly felt a strong restraining force. Fourth Palace Lord smiled and said in an easy-going manner, "Don't worry. This is the key to forming the pill. Don't disturb him!"    

"Expand the defensive circle by another 100 meters. No one is allowed to enter!" After giving Chen Wushuang the order, Fourth Palace Lord's figure flashed and disappeared from where he was.    

Yunqing also realized from Fourth Palace Lord's tone that it was important to Ye Bufan at this moment. She followed Chen Wushuang to set up the defensive circle.    

"Fourth brother, you have invested a lot in this year's elite competition." Following the words of the Head Palace Master, the other palace masters appeared in the sky above Danqing Palace at the same time. It was obvious that the other Palace Masters were also attracted by the red light that illuminated the sky just now.    

Fourth Palace Lord made a booing gesture to the Head Palace Master in the sky. He pointed to the ground below and led the Palace Masters to land on the ground.    

"Fourth brother, why are you making it so mysterious? If you have something good, why don't you take it out and show it to everyone?" Third Palace Lord said anxiously.    

Regarding the pill that Fourth Palace Lord refined, these senior and junior brothers had consumed it quite a few times. Just now, the pill that could trigger the Heavenly Image, Fourth Palace Lord had not refined it for many years.    

"That ___ was not refined by me!" Fourth Palace Lord rolled his eyes at Third Palace Lord and said.    

"Not you? Could it be Ao Tianxiang?" Third Palace Lord's heart stirred and he said, "This kid doesn't seem to have such ability!"    

Ao Tianxiang was Fourth Palace Lord's eldest disciple, and his cultivation base had already reached the Ninth Rank of Qi Stage for many years. He had also learned almost all of Fourth Palace Lord's alchemy skills.    

When he heard Third Palace Lord mention his own disciple, Fourth Palace Lord didn't show the slightest bit of complacency on his face. He said with a bitter smile, "The one who refines the pill must be second brother's disciple!"    

Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Meng Lingfeng suddenly thought of something and asked in surprise, "Is it Bufan concocting pills?"    

Seeing Meng Lingfeng asking, Fourth Palace Lord fiercely nodded his head. He stared at Meng Lingfeng and said, "You already knew Ye Bufan's talent in alchemy, and you even deliberately said that those medicinal blocks were concocted by some bullshit expert. You are afraid that I will snatch this disciple away from you, aren't you?"    

Since Meng Lingfeng had already confirmed that Ye Bufan was concocting pills, he naturally knew that this matter couldn't be concealed anymore. Immediately, he said," This child isn't only in the field of alchemy, he also has astonishing talent in cultivation. I believe that you can also tell that his focus on cultivation is more meaningful to Aoyun Sect than concocting the pill!"    

Meng Lingfeng's last sentence rendered Fourth Palace Lord speechless. Indeed, it was only a year ago. Ye Bufan had broken through to the Seventh Rank of Qi Stage from the Ninth Rank of Power Stage, even if he didn't take the pill and threw it at ___, the consequences would still be devastating. A Alchemist Refiner and a powerful warrior... To the Aoyun Sect, the latter was indeed more attractive.    

However, Fourth Palace Lord was unwilling to admit defeat just like that. Just as he was about to argue a little more, the door of the Pill Clarity Hall opened with a squeak.    

Ye Bufan, whose face was full of beard, walked out from the hall. His pale face was full of smiles. When he took a closer look, he saw that the five Palace Masters were gathered outside. He immediately went forward to greet them one by one.    

"It's done?" Although he had already guessed more than half of the result from Ye Bufan's smile, Fourth Palace Lord still couldn't help but ask. After all, the herbs used by Ye Bufan weren't ordinary herbs. If they were really wasted... It was a pity.    

Ye Bufan took out three jade bottles from his bosom and said, "I have refined three pill!"    

"Three!" The five Palace Masters were also delighted. The pill that Fourth Palace Lord refined the last time seemed to have only turned into two pill, and that was something that happened a few years ago. It had never appeared again.    

"What kind of pill are you refining?" Regarding the pill, although the other Palace Masters were also tempted, it was still better for Fourth Palace Lord to explain it to them.    

Ye Bufan scratched his head and said, "I also don't know what this pill's name is. I think it's better to call it Spirit Gathering Pill! According to the medicinal properties, it should be able to help Peak of Ninth Rank of Qi Stage warriors break through to the Spirit Stage. The success rate is about 80%!"    

"What?" The Head Palace Master could not help but be shocked. Without waiting for Fourth Palace Lord to speak, he immediately asked urgently. As the head of the family, the Head Palace Master naturally attached more importance to the strength of the sect.    

Without waiting for Ye Bufan's reply, Meng Lingfeng released his Spiritual Qi and formed a soundproof barrier around the six of them. He said seriously, "Bufan, this matter is of great importance. You must not speak without thinking!" Obviously, Meng Lingfeng was still worried that Ye Bufan would say too much and not end well.    

Feeling Meng Lingfeng's caring gaze, Ye Bufan nodded and said, "This pill can indeed help Peak of Ninth Rank of Qi Stage people break through to the Spirit Stage. I have specially concocted it for Yunqing. So I have to give one of the pills to her!" Ye Bufan said with an unquestionable tone.    

He took the jade bottle from Ye Bufan and removed the cork. A faint and elegant fragrance came over. Fourth Palace Lord was shocked. He returned to his original state and carefully tasted the medicinal fragrance. Fourth Palace Lord closed his eyes, as if he was thinking about something.    

The other four palace masters' eyes were all fixed on him. After all, apart from Ye Bufan, he was the one with the most authority over the pill!    

"This Spirit Gathering Pill really has the same effect as you said!" Fourth Palace Lord's words brought delight to the faces of the other four palace masters. Then, they asked, "But I remember that there isn't such a pill formula in the Danqing Palace's Compendium Pavilion. Where did you get this pill formula from?"    

Everyone's eyes stopped on Ye Bufan again!    

That's right. In any world, alchemists mostly relied on the experiences of their predecessors. Refining according to the pill formula, the person who can concoct a new pill formula based on different medicinal properties. All of them were outstanding talents in the alchemy world, and all of them were famous. Everyone naturally did not believe that Ye Bufan had such ability!    

To be able to refine such a pill, even if one were to refine it according to the pill formula, one would already be a monstrous genius. If one was able to refine it by themselves, it was likely that even Meng Lingfeng, who loved Ye Bufan, would not be able to resist using Ye Bufan to slice it and study it.    

Ye Bufan naturally would not be foolish to such an extent. "This is a pill formula that I saw in a cave when I was young. I did not expect that it would actually be refined."    

When Ye Bufan said this, the five hall masters felt some relief in their hearts. Ye Bufan must have had some fortuitous encounter and obtained the inheritance of some senior expert. Otherwise, how could he have such an outstanding achievement in alchemy at such a young age? They just didn't know who that expert was. How could he have created such an achievement?    

Looking at the jade bottle in Fourth Palace Lord's hand and the two jade bottles in Ye Bufan's hands, the Head Palace Master thought for a while and said, "If you want to give one of them to Yunqing, you can give it to her. You are also a Seventh Rank of Qi Stage now. I believe that with your current cultivation speed, it won't take long for you to use this Spirit Gathering Pill. You can keep one for yourself. As for the other one, you can keep it for the Aoyun Sect! What do you think?" Unknowingly, the Great Master's attitude toward Ye Bufan had changed slightly.    

Indeed, the cultivation speed that Ye Bufan displayed was enough to attract the attention of the five Palace Masters. The five of them were all Sovereign at Spirit Stage, so they could naturally see the cultivation base of Ye Weifan. But more importantly, Ye Bufan's skill in alchemy made it even more convenient for others to raise his status. If it wasn't for the fact that he was a disciple of Aoyun Sect... Just this skill in alchemy was enough to make the five of them treat him as a distinguished guest!    

Ye Bufan didn't have this kind of awareness, probably because of his skill in alchemy. Ye Bufan did not feel that it was too outstanding, but he was still quite satisfied with the arrangement of the Head Palace Master. “ Thank you, Eldest Martial Uncle! "After Ye Bufan bowed, he saw Yunqing looking at him from not far away.    

Without waiting for the Head Palace Master to respond, Ye Bufan's figure flashed and rushed towards Yunqing. When he came out of Danqing Palace, the person Ye Bufan wanted to see the most was Yunqing.    

Looking at Ye Bufan's back as he left, the five Palace Masters looked at each other in dismay. In all these years, there had never been a disciple who dared to be so impudent in front of them...    

Seeing Ye Bufan leaving the five Palace Masters behind and rushing towards them, Yunqing's disappointment was immediately thrown to the back of her mind. She looked at Ye Bufan who was getting closer and closer to her.    

"This is a pill for you. I specially refined it for you!" Ye Bufan took out a jade bottle and placed it in front of Yunqing.    

"Didn't you already give me the pill?" Although Yunqing knew that Ye Bufan specifically concocted the ___ for her, she still said in a reserved manner.    

Ye Bufan said with a confident face, "This is the Spirit Gathering Pill. A Peak of Ninth Rank of Qi Stage expert will have at least an 80% chance of breaking through to the Spirit Stage after consuming it!" Then he said in a low voice, "And it will not affect the advancement of the realm in the future!" Based on Ye Bufan's understanding of Yunqing, he could vaguely guess that her background was very big. It was not that there were no pill that could break through to the Spirit Stage. However, there wouldn't be too many pill that would have no effect on her future cultivation. Therefore, Ye Bufan added this sentence in a low voice.    

As for why he didn't mention it to the five Palace Masters, it was because Ye Bufan didn't want it to be too shocking...    

Just as Ye Bufan had expected, it wasn't that the Qin family didn't have such a similar pill. However, they didn't have much of it. Even if the core disciples of the family didn't have special contributions, they wouldn't be able to enjoy it. Therefore, Yunqing clearly knew how precious this Spirit Gathering Pill was. She looked at Ye Bufan's face full of beard and his haggard face. And... The faint smell of sweat made Yunqing's small mouth open a few times. But she did not say anything and just let the sweet tears flow down her cheeks slowly.    

Ye Bufan did not say anything. He just gently opened his arms and hugged Yunqing. His right hand gently caressed her back, soothing Yunqing's emotions.    

Silence is better than sound!    

Not far away. Yes. The five hall masters looked at the two of them and couldn't help but sigh in their hearts. It was as if they were thinking of themselves when they were young...
