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

Qin Chuan remained calm, but his heart was pounding with excitement.

He had seen descriptions of this rootless ironwood in ancient texts; its effects were wondrous and difficult to explain.

Besides the effects mentioned by Chen Jiashu, it has an even greater effect: increasing the success rate of alchemy!

Adding a rootless ironwood to any elixir will greatly increase the chances of success, if not guarantee it will be 100%.

Without the slightest hesitation, Qin Chuan immediately raised his hand and took the rootless ironwood that Chen Jiashu was handing over.

Looking down, he felt a pang of regret.

Since this piece of rootless ironwood is only the length and thickness of a finger, it is obviously enough for one alchemy session.

"Master Wang, may we begin now?"

Chen Jiashu gave a cold laugh and spoke in a sinister tone.

He was already impatient and wanted to crush Wang Xueyi in front of him immediately to get back at him.

The members of the Hundred Flowers Sect all around held their breath and watched intently.

This lecture on alchemy has been extremely rewarding for them.

Everyone became curious about who would win the next competition.

Song Jia was also in the crowd, glancing at the two people on the platform from time to time, but focusing her attention more on Qin Chuan.

Huang Deshan was somewhat anxious, even though he had heard about Qin Chuan's astonishing advancement to alchemist.

But what he was facing now was a genuine purple-robed alchemist from the alchemy world.

Even if he can't compare to the Purple Furnace Alchemists of the Wen Dan lineage, he is at least at the peak level of the Green Furnace Alchemists.

Chen Jiashu noticed his nervous appearance, which immediately calmed him down.

Before Qin Chuan could act, Chen Jiashu immediately imprinted his knowledge of plants and trees in his mind onto the withered wood in his palm with his divine sense.

"The sprouting of one bud on this tree represents 100,000 changes, and from the second bud onwards, it represents 200,000 changes in vegetation. Master Wang, you'd better be careful!"

Although he was offering a reminder, the sarcastic tone in Chen Jiashu's words was palpable.

He sneered, and in that instant, the withered wood in his hand burst forth with intense light.

The light spread, immediately attracting the attention of those around.

Qin Chuan remained calm, but his divine sense surged forth, heading straight for the withered wood in his palm.

Time passed slowly, and after a short while, the withered wood in Chen Jiashu's palm sprouted new green buds.

It's like... a withered tree coming back to life!

"Ten thousand transformations... Master Chen has already achieved ten thousand transformations, but I wonder about Master Wang..."

As Chen Jiashu made his move, the female disciples of the Hundred Flowers Sect immediately began to whisper and murmur among themselves.

But the sound stopped abruptly, because the withered branch in Qin Chuan's hand sprouted two new branches!

As soon as these two shoots appeared, Qin Chuan remained calm, but those around him were shaken.

Chen Jiashu, in particular, twitched at the corner of his mouth and rubbed his eyes hard.

He had never seen anyone sprout two branches so quickly.

"It doesn't matter. With my expertise in plants, I'm not inferior to this opportunist. He's just slow..."

Chen Jiashu immediately comforted himself, a mocking expression on his face, but in that instant...

His eyes widened, and his expression froze.

In Qin Chuan's hand, on the withered branch, a third new bud appeared, then a fourth, then a fifth…

The ninth new bud appeared in just over ten breaths!

This scene instantly caused horror and shocked everyone in the Hundred Flowers Sect.

"This...how is this possible!"

"Nine new buds represent nine hundred thousand changes in plants. This Master Wang is so young, yet he possesses such terrifying expertise in plants..."

"No! Not nine..."

Just as everyone was discussing, the withered branch in Qin Chuan's hand suddenly sprouted its tenth new bud.

As for Chen Jiashu, only the third bud has just sprouted.

"Impossible! This is impossible!!"

Chen Jiashu's eyes were bloodshot; he couldn't believe what he was seeing.

He was disheveled at this moment, and with a roar, he tried to speed up.

But in that very instant, the withered wood in Qin Chuan's hand sprouted ten new buds.

Surprisingly... a flower bud has appeared!

The flower buds swayed in the wind, attracting everyone's attention, including Chen Jiashu and Fu Yiming.

Bang!

The bud burst open and blossomed into a small white flower!

"A withered tree comes back to life... an iron tree blooms... this... this is..."

Fu Yiming's face was pale, and his expression was extremely horrified. He knew all too well what this rootless ironwood represented.

"Ten thousand plants and trees, a million changes, and tens of millions of companion plants... When the cycad blooms, it represents a million companion plants; if ten flowers bloom at the same time, it represents tens of millions of companion plants!!"

Huang Deshan spoke excitedly, making no attempt to lower his voice.

He never imagined that Wang Xueyi's knowledge of plants would reach such an astonishing level.

It should be noted that even the main furnace is mostly stuck in a million-fold change.

Only in the red-hot furnace can one discover countless companions.

"you you…"

Chen Jiashu stood there, his mind buzzing, staring blankly at Qin Chuan.

I felt my vision blurring and I was on the verge of fainting.

He never dreamed that Wang Xueyi's knowledge of plants would be so astonishing.

If he had known earlier, he certainly wouldn't have compared himself to plants.

Taking a deep breath, Chen Jiashu's body trembled as he was about to say something.

Suddenly, a second, a third, a fourth…

One flower after another bloomed simultaneously, causing a sensation and driving the crowd in the square into a frenzy.

At this moment, tens of thousands of eyes were focused on Qin Chuan, their gazes filled with horror and disbelief.

The sixth, the seventh, the eighth, the ninth…

Each time a flower bloomed, a booming sound echoed in everyone's hearts.

At this moment, even Madame Roland and the other two were breathing heavily, and their gazes toward Qin Chuan were burning with desire.

Until... the tenth one!

The moment the tenth flower appeared on the ironwood, Chen Jiashu felt dizzy and almost fainted.

He never expected that he would encounter such a monstrous figure at the Hundred Flowers Sect.

In fact, if Chen Jiashu knew that Qin Chuan was Dan Shui, he would have fainted right now.

"evildoer…"

Huang Deshan trembled, his eyes were fixed on the screen, and he seemed to have lost his mind.

This wasn't a competition between two people at all; it was Wang Xueyi unilaterally crushing Chen Jiashu.

This left the opponent with no chance to retaliate, resulting in a complete and utter defeat!

Madame Roland and the other two breathed heavily, staring intently at Qin Chuan, whose expression remained unchanged, as if they had seen a priceless treasure.

At that moment, the disciples of the Hundred Flowers Sect all around erupted in a deafening roar.

They all knew a little about alchemy, so how could they not know what this scene represented?

"Master Wang Xueyi!"

"Ten flowers bloom on an iron tree, countless companions emerge at the ultimate!!"

Amidst the buzzing, the entire square erupted in noise.

Without even glancing at the withered wood in his hand, Qin Chuan put it into the Heaven and Earth Spirit Furnace space, making no mention of returning it.

Then, he looked up at Chen Jiashu, whose face was ashen and whose body was trembling, and spoke calmly.

"Master Chen, is there any need to continue the competition?"
