After conquering the Empress, I proved my Dao with the Heaven and Earth Spirit Furnace!

"But since you're betting my life, you have to add more money!"

Qin Chuan said with a smile.

Wang Yong looked surprised; he hadn't expected Qin Chuan to actually agree.

After a moment of silence, Wang Yong took out two more magical treasures from his storage ring: a bronze mirror and a robe.

"Are these two high-grade spiritual artifacts enough together?"

"Not enough." Qin Chuan shook his head.

Upon hearing this, Wang Yong's expression turned cold, and he gritted his teeth, saying, "Kid, don't go too far!"

Qin Chuan smiled and said, "What you want is my life. How come it's my turn to go too far now? Besides, once I die, everything on my body will be yours, won't it?"

Upon hearing this, Wang Yong's expression softened slightly, as it seemed to make sense.

After a moment's hesitation, Wang Yong gritted his teeth and said, "Since that's the case, then I'll wager this storage ring of mine. If I lose, you can take it all!"

He naturally didn't believe he would lose, which is why he dared to bet everything so recklessly.

"it is good!"

Seeing that Wang Yong had finally taken the bait, Qin Chuan narrowed his eyes and nodded with a smile.

Upon seeing this, Wang Yong felt a sudden unease. Qin Chuan's nonchalant demeanor gave him a strange sense of crisis.

"Could it be that this person really has some skill in alchemy?" Wang Yong wondered to himself.

But he quickly dismissed this conjecture, concluding that the person before him was definitely not capable of alchemy and was merely faking it.

"In that case, Wang Yong, put the bet aside and start preparing for the competition!"

Seeing that the two had reached an agreement, Yang Tai smiled and spoke up.

This was practically a free reward; he didn't believe that the young man in front of him could beat Wang Yong.

As for Qin Chuan's bet, since it involved his life, it was impossible to put it aside, so he didn't say much.

As Yang Tai finished speaking, Qin Chuan and Wang Yong stood in front of their respective alchemy cauldrons.

"Since it's a competition to refine pills, let's see who can refine pills of better quality and faster!"

Yang Tai smiled and said, "First-grade pills are too low-level, so let's go with third-grade pills. As for which pills, Master Ma can choose them, so as not to say that I am bullying you, my nominal disciple."

Grade 3 pills are the highest level of pills that Wang Yong can refine.

Upon hearing that he had been assigned to the third rank, Ma Yang's face showed a hint of worry.

But given the current situation, there's no way to back out; we have no choice but to go through with it.

After a moment of silence, Ma Yang said in a deep voice, "In that case, let's refine the Rejuvenation Pill!"

“回春丹？”

Upon hearing Ma Yang's words, Yang Tai gave a cold laugh. The Rejuvenation Pill was the most common and ordinary of the third-grade pills.

It's clear that the other party made this decision to take care of Qin Chuan.

"Alright, the Rejuvenation Pill it is!"

Yang Tai did not refuse. After clapping his hands, two disciples from Danfeng immediately brought up the medicinal materials for refining the Rejuvenation Pill.

Worried that Yang Tai might tamper with things, Ma Yang made a special inspection and only allowed the two disciples to go over after finding nothing wrong.

At this moment, Yang Tai looked at Qin Chuan and said coldly, "Boy, do you need me to tell you the recipe for the Rejuvenation Pill?"

"Need not."

Qin Chuan smiled and said calmly, "There's no need to make such a big fuss about such a low-level pill!"

Upon hearing this, Yang Tai's lips twitched, and his expression turned somewhat unpleasant.

"Insanity!"

Before Yang Tai could speak, Wang Yong's face was extremely gloomy, and he said coldly, "I hope you can still be so arrogant later."

Qin Chuan smiled slightly, "You'll find out soon enough."

Upon hearing this, Wang Yong's eyes gradually turned cold, and he said sarcastically, "Although I don't know how good you are at alchemy, you certainly have a sharp tongue."

"Yeah."

Qin Chuan sneered, "This is nothing. After the alchemy competition, you'll see that what I've said is just the tip of the iceberg."

"you!"

Upon hearing this, Wang Yong's face turned cold, and he was about to retort when Yang Tai interrupted him.

"Enough! What's the point of arguing like this! Now that the medicinal herbs have arrived, let's start the alchemy competition!"

Upon hearing this, Wang Yong snorted coldly, "I almost forgot, you're going to die in a little while, why am I wasting my breath talking to a dying man?"

After saying that, he gave a cold laugh and focused all his attention on the Eight Extremes Cauldron in front of him.

"brush!"

The next instant, a cluster of flame appeared in Wang Yong's hand. He flicked his wrist and threw it below the Eight Extremes Cauldron.

"Earthly Flame Heartfire?"

Upon seeing the flames Wang Yong threw out, Ma Yang's pupils contracted, and a look of surprise appeared on his face.

This flame far surpasses ordinary alchemical fire, being several times hotter.

Yang Tai said proudly, "Master Ma has a good eye. This is the earth fire that Wang Yong recently subdued. Its power is not comparable to ordinary pill fire."

Upon hearing Yang Tai's words, Ma Yang frowned, his face becoming somewhat serious.

"Earth fire?"

Qin Chuan shook his head, a mocking smile appearing on his lips.

For the fire within him, the earth fire was merely nourishment, utterly insignificant.

Seemingly noticing the disdain in Qin Chuan's eyes, Wang Yong's face turned cold, and he said sarcastically, "You seem quite unconvinced. Let's see what kind of flame you have. You can't even condense a pill fire, can you?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the disciples of Danfeng behind him burst into laughter.

Ignoring their mockery, Qin Chuan raised an eyebrow, produced a cluster of blue flames in his hand, and tossed it beneath the cauldron.

"Hmph, it's just alchemical fire. Seeing you putting on such a big show, people who don't know any better would think you have a fire source!"

Wang Yong curled his lip in disdain and spoke coldly.

Although he said that, a serious look still appeared in Wang Yong's eyes.

He hadn't expected that Qin Chuan could actually condense alchemical fire, which proved that the other party really knew alchemy.

However, the other party's alchemy skills are definitely not high-level, and it is impossible for them to refine third-grade pills.

At most, one can refine either Grade 1 or Grade 2 pills.

Thinking of this, Wang Yong smiled again and began to concentrate on his alchemy.

However, he would occasionally glance at Qin Chuan, keeping an eye on the other's movements.

Ignoring the mocking voices around him, Qin Chuan threw all the medicinal materials for refining the Rejuvenation Pill into the Qiankun Cauldron in front of him, just like he had done with other medicines before.

"Haha..." Upon seeing this scene, Wang Yong could no longer suppress his smile and burst into laughter.

He was finally relieved; the person opposite him really didn't know how to make medicine.

Refining pills in this way will not only fail, but will also greatly increase the chances of failure.

The most important thing in refining elixirs is the order of operations; if it is wrong, the elixirs may be ruined.

The temperature varies greatly, sometimes high and sometimes low.

Only when the right temperature is achieved can a qualified elixir be successfully refined.

But Qin Chuan just threw all the medicinal herbs in at once, which made him a laughingstock.

Yang Tai, standing to the side, also shook his head and smiled, his face full of sarcasm.

He looked at Ma Yang not far away and sneered, "Master Ma, it seems that you, as a nominal disciple, are nothing special?"
