CHAPTER 344: CHAPTER 153: MR. CHEN, THE LUSTFUL DEMON! EVEN THE COLDEST FAIRY, XX IS WARM! (6K)_3

"To solve this situation, one should use Green Vine Three-Inch Soaking Dew, supplemented with Red Flame Stone Powder, and steam it over water to harmonize the conflicting energies."

As soon as these words were spoken, the air instantly fell silent.

Yuan Junfeng’s expression was frozen, like a statue.

In just a moment, he identified the crux of the problem and even provided a solution... His insight is likely to place him among the Grandmasters of Alchemy Dao, right?!

Ling Yishan said with a half-smile, "Both of you are the Qingyun Leaderboard, but it seems like there’s quite a gap between you two."

"..."

Yuan Junfeng shook his head with a wry smile and admitted, "The fresh leaves of the forest hasten the fall of the old ones, the flowing stream allows the front waves to yield to the back. I made a mistake in my judgment; I cannot underestimate the heroes of the world."

Ling Ningzhi’s toes curled up, and her lips unconsciously lifted into a smile.

Seeing Chen Mo shine in front of her grandfather, she inexplicably felt a burst of joy.

This big troublemaker is really amazing!

...

Front yard.

After hearing Chen Mo’s remarks, the afro-haired man fell into deep thought, muttering to himself, "Combine the number of Cycles to respond to the changes of four seasons... I have questioned my methods, but never the alchemy recipe... so that’s how it is..."

His eyes grew brighter, much like two lone stars in the night sky.

Without a word, he raised his hand to ignite the furnace and discarded all the alchemy pills that were half-refined in the furnace.

Then he took out spiritual materials again, operated according to Chen Mo’s suggestion, and cautiously began to melt them into the furnace tripod with fire control.

As the medicine liquid continued to blend together, strange phenomena appeared around the bronze tripod.

"Nine-Turned Elixir, the first turn, Li Palace Fire Crow flies around the tripod, the second turn, Earth Vein Melting Gold transforms into purple smoke, the third turn..."

The afro-haired man focused on controlling the alchemy fire.

Gentle fire nourishes, fierce fire refines intensely, his techniques were extremely skillful, and his timing was impeccable.

From Chen Mo’s perspective, this guy’s alchemy skills surpassed his own, but his mind was not flexible enough, prone to getting stuck in details, with a kind of bookish stubbornness of not turning back until hitting a wall...

"The ninth turn, Yin Yang Dual Flames form a Taiji!"

The afro-haired man suddenly intensified the alchemy fire, and the intense flames surged, resembling the roar of a tiger and the rumble of thunder!

Then the flames quickly converged, turning into black and white, rotating around the furnace, locking the Daoist Charm wholly into the pill.

Boom!

The furnace lid exploded open!

Brilliant rays rushed straight to the sky, and a grey alchemy pill hovered in mid-air.

At the same time, the surrounding Primordial Qi surged violently, roaring like a hurricane, pouring into the afro-haired man’s body.

The afro-haired man immediately sat cross-legged with his eyes slightly closed, his clothes fluttering, and his aura was steadily rising!

The grand commotion in the courtyard attracted all the other worshipers over.

Everyone crowded into the front yard, curiously watching the scene before them.

"Did Brother Qu blow up the furnace again?"

"Why is he sitting there without moving?"

"This time the commotion is a bit large, could it be that he got blown to death? That would truly make him a corpse brother."

"Something’s not right, the alchemy is complete?!"

"It really is the Nine Revolutions Soul Stabilizing Pill, and it’s of perfect quality too!"

"Wait, Brother Qu seems about to break through!"

After a long time, the energy subsided, and the violent Primordial Qi immersed itself into the body like a tide.

The afro-haired man slowly opened his eyes, which seemed to have two flames burning within them, his expression somewhat twisted, bearing an uncontainable excitement.

His hands beat his chest like a gorilla, and he howled up to the sky:

"Fourth Grade Alchemy! I finally did it!!"

"You old man, for not teaching me properly... Sooner or later, I will become a Grandmaster to show you!"

...

In the small courtyard.

Ling Yishan’s mouth twitched slightly upon hearing this.

"This little brat is becoming more and more impudent."

"However, he managed to break through to the Fourth Rank, so he didn’t let me down. I won’t bother with him for now."

Yuan Junfeng curiously asked, "Did you already know Qu Sifan was about to break through?"

Ling Yishan waved a fan and said, "In alchemy cultivation, besides talent, diligence, and resources, there’s one more thing that’s extremely important, and that’s luck."

"Qu Sifan lacks nothing in the first three, what he lacks is just that bit of luck."

"Sure enough, I wasn’t wrong, Chen Mo is favored by destiny, his luck is extraordinarily strong, even a slight touch of it can transform someone."

Yuan Junfeng’s expression turned solemn upon hearing this, and he spoke with reverence, "So Elder Ling foresaw that Chen Mo would come today, which is why you didn’t teach him alchemy properly?"

"What nonsense, Chen Mo’s fate is so murky that even the Daoist Venerable can’t see through it, how could I?"

Ling Yishan coldly laughed, "If I gave Qu Sifan extra lessons, wouldn’t everyone else cling to me? Those leisurely days would be gone forever; do you think I’m foolish?"

"..."

Yuan Junfeng was speechless for a moment.

...

"Congratulations, Brother Qu!"

"Congratulations, truly a cause for celebration!"

The worshipers congratulated one after another.

Qu Sifan is not yet forty, yet he has broken through to Fourth Grade Alchemy. Given time, it is not impossible for him to achieve Grandmaster status!

One must know, the entire Tiandu City has only three Grandmasters of Alchemy Dao!

Although everyone has colleague-like relationships, having received the legacy from the Demon Suppression Department, they’re all referred to as brothers in daily life, quite close, and sincere in their happiness for him.

Qu Sifan, however, did not exchange pleasantries with them, instead parted from the crowd and went straight to Chen Mo.

"Three years of shackles, eight thousand days and nights, today the clouds have cleared, the obstacles have vanished, only now do I understand what ’Hearing the Dao in the morning, it is sufficient to die in the evening’ means!"

"Without Mr. Chen’s guidance, I don’t know how much longer I’d remain trapped. Mr. Chen should be considered a one-word master to me!"

"Master Chen, please accept this disciple’s bow!"

With that, he knelt down and bowed deeply.

?

Chen Mo was stunned for a moment.

He didn’t expect this afro-haired guy to be so earnest and sincere.

Coming to his senses, he hurriedly reached out to help Qu Sifan up, "I am not worthy, I was merely speaking casually. The reason for your breakthrough is still because your own foundation is solid."
