Fusing Heavenly Flames? Easy!
🕑 Added 2023-08-28 04:59:54 +0000 UTC--- Chapter 161 ---
As Gu Xun'er felt complicated feelings brew in her chest, the guests from the Gu Clan and Yan Clan were "secretly." dumbfounded by Yao Dan's exaggerated introduction of Baek Ain.
Yao Dan is a 9th-tier Alchemist.
For him to praise someone this greatly, this young-looking Grandmaster must have a profound skill in Alchemy.
Baek Ain humbly reacted and sat down on an empty chair. Yao Ling'er stood beside him like a good disciple.
Even then, Yao Ling'er's action puzzled the guests beside Huo Zhi.
Yao Dan cleared his throat and explained, "Brother Lin has taken Yao Ling'er as his disciple. It might surprise you guys, but Brother Lin possesses such qualifications."
"Anyway, that was only a small matter."
"Let's focus on the Dou Di's Blood Purifying Pill."
Hearing Yao Dan's explanation, everyone nodded instinctively. The elders from the Gu Clan and Yan Clan gazed at Yao Dan with great interest while Baek Ain calmly drank his tea.
Yao Dan placed a scroll down and rolled it open slightly, exposing the ancient aura. It shocked everyone as they could feel the auspiciousness of it.
[Tsk, tsk, look at their faces] Alicia commented amusingly.
[If only they knew the scroll was "actually." made in mere three seconds!]
[The only fancy things about the scroll are probably the materials...]
'Hey, the content is the most important.' Baek Ain laughed inside, observing the room.
[Aih, my used-to-be pure Host is too good at scamming people~!] She teased mercilessly.
Baek Ain choked on his tea and acted like nothing happened. He cursed at Alicia and muted her, preventing the system from spouting more nonsense.
He's an upright man!
[...]
To hell with being upright!
Host, you're so thick-skinned!!
Baek Ain felt someone complaining to him and decided to ignore this feeling.
Yao Dan coughed and boldly stated, "Ehem, Brother Lin shared this recipe with the Yao Clan, hoping we could provide assistance."
"Dou Di's Blood Purifying Pill is a Tier-10 Pill. Not only was it dangerous to concoct because it could and definitely attract Lightning Calamity, but the materials and fire we needed were also outrageous."
"What's the materials? Also, what kind of fire is needed?" Someone asked while raising his hand. It could be said this question is the focus of everyone in this meeting.
Yao Dan put on a mysterious smile when hearing this question. He shook his head and shrugged helplessly, causing them to frown.
"Before I answer that question, I'd like you to sign a Soul Contract to keep this information confidential." Yao Dan said, stunning them.
"Crafty old fox..." The purple-clothed elder beside Huo Zhi lashed in displeasure.
And yes, they couldn't reject Yao Dan's proposal.
An elder brought a special paper made of Spiritual Strength and brought it to everyone. Baek Ain glanced at this contract and smirked inside because the cause benefitted him the most.
After everyone signed the contract with their Spiritual Strength, Yao Dan nodded in satisfaction.
The Yao Clan's Patriarch laughed and added, "Thank you for the cooperation."
"About the ingredients, there are 333 Heaven and Earth Materials, 300 of them were 8th Tier Medicinal Herbs and Essence. The remaining 33 are 9th Tier Medicinal Herbs."
"And to refine Dou Di's Blood Purifying Pill. We need six or more Heavenly Flames."
"..." Huo Zhi.
"..." Gu Xun'er.
"..." Everyone.
Why does this sound like a scam?
Yao Dan kept his smile and added, "I know what you are thinking, but what I said is true."
"Brother Lin can confirm it."
Everyone glanced at Baek Ain and saw him nodding weakly.
Baek Ain opened his mouth and said, "A 10th Tier Pill is something we couldn't even dream to exist."
"And a pill that could purify the Ancient Clan's Bloodline is even rarer..."
"Don't get caught in a momentary dilemma and think of your clan's future." He finished speaking, giving them a meaningful smile.
"If Grandmaster Lin said so, Huo Zhi can only agree." Huo Zhi smiled behind her veil, leaving the people from Yan Clan speechless.
"Huo Zhi-!" The purple-clothed elder Huo Xuan was stupefied by her sudden decision.
Huo Zhi raised her hand to stop the elder and confidently said, "Trust me, Xuan. This will be our biggest investment."
"Fine..." Huo Zuan sighed, not knowing what Huo Zhi was thinking. Still, a rational lady like Huo Zhi won't do something without a reason.
He stared at Baek Ain and wondered what kind of secret this guy possessed.
It's not hard to see Baek Ain's cultivation base as he was at the High Stage of the Half-Saint Realm. At such a young age, such attainment is heaven's breaking.
Huo Xuan never heard of someone called Grandmaster Lin before. And there shouldn't be any faction he didn't know in the Dou Qi Continent.
Unless...
'This Grandmaster with the surname Lin was from the outside sea...' Huo Xuan's prying eyes were enlightened.
Gu Xun'er discussed this matter with her group and came to a conclusion after three minutes.
"Gu Clan also agrees."
"Good, we can start in three days." Yao Dan chuckled excitedly.
"I'll relay the message to Gu Clan and Yan Clan's Patriarchs soon. There is no problem with that, right?"
"No problem." Huo Zhi and Gu Xun'er replied simultaneously.
Yao Dan started listing the ingredients, and everyone listened carefully. Nevertheless, when they heard the refining method, the room became silent.
"Using Heavenly Flames as a Furnace..."
"This is impossible." An expert from the Yao Clan uttered.
"Let's not mention fusing six Heavenly Flames first. Fusing two dangerous Heavenly Flames alone is difficult enough in my lifetime!"
"Even the mighty Yao Clan's Patriarch couldn't do this, right?" The expert scoffed in annoyance.
"Haha, don't look at me like that." Yao Dan waved his hand casually.
"I know my limit."
"I planned to invite the Ancestor of Burning Flame Valley, Huo Yun, but the people on my lines told me that Huo Yun is entering a seclusion to break through."
"..." The expert couldn't believe his ears. Such a coincidence.
Everyone sighed, feeling a little helpless.
Huo Zhi's eyes lit up as she spoke, "Grandmaster Lin... You have been quiet this entire time."
"Can you perhaps do the procedure? And fuse two Heavenly Flame or more?"
Everyone felt alarmed upon hearing this.
Even Gu Xun'er thought Huo Zhi was spouting nonsense.
To their surprise, Baek Ain nodded his head gently.
"It's just fusing Heavenly Flame? What's so hard about it?" Baek Ain acts puzzled.
"Hmph, you're all talk!" The expert from Yan Clan mocked.
Baek Ain sighed and flicked his finger, summoning Green Lotus Core Flame and Sea Heart Flame. The meeting room's temperature rose abruptly as Green and Blue light illuminated every corner.
"Ling'er, observe this sequence." Baek Ain reminded his disciples.
"Yes, Teacher!" Yao Ling'er enthusiastically replied.
Baek Ain waved his hand slowly and formed a link between Green Lotus Core Flame and Sea Heart Flame with his Spiritual Strength, merging the two with temporary space.
The process wasn't too slow or too fast.
It was the perfect speed for Yao Ling'er and others to observe.
Under their watchful gazes, the two ferocious Heavenly Flames slowly merged and created this beautiful yet dangerous Teal-Colored Flame, burning with the essence of earth, water, and fire.
Baek Ain clasped his hand and turned the Teal-Colored Flame into countless birds, swarming the meeting room in a completely comfortable warmth.
Shocked.
Dumbfounded.
Disbelief.
Craziness.
These emotions barely explained their surprise at Baek Ain's ability.
Baek Ain snapped his finger and made the Teal-Colored Flame disappear, not caring to their disappointment for not being able to see more. "What do you think?" He rested his chin on his hand.
