The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 2550 Burning Rivers and Boiling Seas
"boom!"

The lid of the alchemy furnace flew off, and a ray of light shot out, accompanied by a vermilion pill.

Sea Soul Pill!
Become!

The alchemist from the Yuwen family was filled with astonishment and disappointment. How could it have worked?

This is a high-grade elixir, the Sea Soul Pill, which is extremely difficult to obtain.

This young alchemist actually came up with a plan in three days and then refined it three times, and succeeded just like that?

This is too exaggerated.

The alchemist from the Wei family also had disbelief written all over his face. He had already prepared himself for Lin Chen to fail, but Lin Chen succeeded anyway.

The Sea Soul Pills on the porcelain plate were of uniform color and emitted a faint, smoky fragrance.

Lin Chen breathed a sigh of relief, stood up, examined the Sea Soul Pill, then put it into a special bottle for sealing pills, and smiled at the two supervising alchemists: "Thank goodness, it was a success!"

Soon, Wei Mingxuan, Yuwen Difei, and the others gathered in the courtyard. Yuwen Zhao also came out of the alchemy room, but his complexion was not good.

Yuwen Difei asked, "Yuwen Zhao, how is he?"

Yuwen Zhao replied dejectedly, "I failed. I was so close. There wasn't enough time. Five days is too short. If I had a little more time, I could have refined three more batches. I'm sure I could have succeeded."

Yuwen Difei frowned and turned his gaze to Lin Chen on the other side: "Chen Fan, what about you?"

Lin Chen smiled slightly: "Fortunately, at the last moment, the last batch of materials was successfully refined."

Succeeded?
A hint of disappointment flashed in Yuwen Difei's eyes. Yuwen Zhao had actually lost?

He lost to this young alchemist?
Yuwen Zhao's eyes widened in disbelief as he said, "How is this possible? That's the Sea Soul Pill! You only have three portions of the ingredients, how could you possibly have succeeded in refining it..."

His words came to an abrupt halt as his gaze fell upon the Yuwen family alchemist in charge of supervision, who nodded at him, confirming the truth of the matter.

Yuwen Zhao's expression suddenly turned extremely ugly. He had previously looked down on Lin Chen, but now he had lost.

He failed to refine the pill formula given to him by the Wei family, but Lin Chen succeeded.

The outcome is obvious and cannot be disputed.

Thinking back to how he had arrogantly mocked Lin Chen, and how Lin Chen had humbly asked to learn from him, Yuwen Zhao wished he could disappear into a hole in the ground.

Wei Mingxuan's eyes held undisguised surprise, but his words were incredibly humble: "You actually succeeded? You're really lucky..."

Lin Chen nodded: "Yes, Patriarch, if it weren't for good luck, we would have failed on the last attempt too." Good luck?
The alchemists present all had subtle expressions. Could this also be attributed to luck?

Although I know you're trying to show the humility of a victor, it just sounds so fake.

Yuwen Difei's smile was somewhat forced: "As expected, a new generation surpasses the old. Impressive, impressive!"

Once the winner and loser were determined, Lin Chen was no longer involved.

Wei Mingxuan walked over to Lin Chen and patted him on the shoulder: "You've worked hard, you should get some rest."

"it is good!"

Lin Chen returned to his residence. He was indeed exhausted after five days of thinking and concentrating on alchemy.

After resting for a while, a maid came to find Lin Chen and led him to Wei Mingxuan's residence.

When Wei Mingxuan saw Lin Chen, he smiled and said, "Chen Fan, well done! Haha!"

Lin Chen replied modestly, "Just lucky!"

"Victory comes from strength, not luck. That's a Sea Soul Pill, not something you can refine by luck... Come, sit down!"

Wei Mingxuan was very enthusiastic. After inviting Lin Chen to sit down, he smiled and said, "I've already told you about this before. You defeated Yuwen Zhao, so it's your turn to collect the Heavenly Secret Divine Water. Are you ready?"

Lin Chen asked with doubt, "How do I do it? I'm a little confused."

Wei Mingxuan laughed and said, "Burning the river and boiling the sea, we will use a magic weapon to burn all the water in the lake dry, and then you can extract the Heavenly Secret Divine Water mixed in with it. It's not complicated."

Lin Chen smiled and said, "As long as it's not complicated, otherwise I'm afraid I won't be able to complete it and ruin the patriarch's grand plan."

Wei Mingxuan laughed and said, "You are a genius in alchemy. You should have confidence in yourself. I will find you more advanced pill formulas and medicinal materials so that you can continue to improve your alchemy skills and strive to become an alchemy master in the entire North Sea and even the Myriad Gods Immortal Realm as soon as possible!"

Lin Chen feigned surprise and bowed, saying, "Thank you, Patriarch!"

Wei Mingxuan took out a box and handed it to Lin Chen: "Open it and take a look?"

A surge of joy welled up in Lin Chen's heart. Could it be that the Hidden Divine White Jade Stem he had been searching for was inside this box?
Lin Chen pretended to be confused and opened the box, where he saw a large tuber that looked like jade, with a faint shimmering light on it, which was very dazzling.

Lin Chen looked up in surprise: "This is... the Hidden Divine White Jade Stem?"

Wei Mingxuan laughed and said, "Yes, I've already gotten it for you these past few days. Although it took some favors, since I promised you, I'll definitely do it for you..."
