reax;
Hearing the Protector King's sigh, Fang Chen was even more certain that something must have happened. Otherwise, the Protector King would not have reacted this way.
"Uncle Wen, what exactly happened? Can I help you?" Fang Chen asked.
Fang Chen naturally remembered Duan Muwen's great kindness to him. If not for Duan Muwen, he would not have been able to join the Kamikaze Kenbu.
"It's a long story." Duan Muwen nodded slightly when he heard this and replied.
Then, Duan Muwen began to explain slowly, and Fang Chen listened attentively.
After a while, Fang Chen finally understood the ins and outs of the matter.
This was what had happened. In one of the prefectures of the Shengfeng Nation, an evil organization had appeared. They were killing ordinary people without restraint. This news had shocked the entire royal family.
Finally, the royal family had gathered all sorts of detailed information and prepared to send out the younger generation of the various royal manors to eradicate this evil organization and train the younger generation at the same time.
The best of the younger generation of the Protector King's manors had joined the Ten Great Sect. Therefore, the remaining disciples in the royal manors were all martial artists who were not very strong. The strongest was only at the Fourth Realm of the Qi Transformation Realm.
The royal family required that the leader of each royal mansion must be at least at the Fifth Realm of the Qi Transformation Realm. This made the Protector King frown.
If the Protector King's manors were unable to find a disciple at the Fifth Realm of the Qi Transformation Realm, they would definitely become the laughing stock of the other royal manors.
The Protector King would definitely not allow such a thing to happen. However, in the royal manors, there were no disciples above the Fifth Realm of the Qi Transformation Realm.
The Protector King had even sent a message to the disciples of the Ten Great Sect to see if they could rush back. However, the message he received was that it would take at least ten days for them to rush back.
Therefore, this method was not very effective.
"The other royal manors all have disciples above the Fifth Realm of the Qi Transformation Realm?" Fang Chen asked.
Protector King Duan Muwen nodded slightly and said, "Back then, in order to strengthen the Protector King's manors and train the younger generation, I sent those who were slightly more talented to the Ten Great Sect. Now, those who are left are all disciples who are not very talented. They cannot compare to the other royal manors."
Fang Chen nodded slightly. Shortly after, he asked, "When will the imperial family's mission be carried out?"
"Three days later, gather at the plaza of the Imperial Capital. After that, we'll head out to carry out the mission," Duan Muwen said.
Fang Chen's eyes lit up as he said, "Uncle Wen, this matter is not as bad as you think."
"Oh, Fang Chen, do you have any ideas?" Duan Muwen hurriedly asked.
Fang Chen said, "Although my current cultivation level is at the Second Realm of the Qi Transformation Realm, my true strength has long since reached the Fifth Realm. I wonder if I can take the Protector King's place on this mission?"
Upon hearing Fang Chen's words, Duan Muwen's face was filled with doubt. When he had recommended Fang Chen to join the Kamikaze Kenbu, Fang Chen's cultivation had not yet reached the Qi Transformation Realm. His true strength was only at the First Tier of the Qi Transformation Realm.
How long had it been, and Fang Chen was already saying that he had reached the Fifth Tier of the Qi Transformation Realm?
"Fang Chen, have you really reached the fifth tier of the Qi Transformation Realm?" Duan Muwen asked.
Crash!
Fang Chen did not say anything. He used his actions to prove it to Duan Muwen. Suddenly, the Qingyun Sword appeared in Fang Chen's hand.
In the next moment, a monstrous sword aura appeared. Immediately after, the seventh level of the Taiyi Dispersing Sword was displayed. A powerful aura shot out from the Qingyun Sword.
Seeing this, Duan Muwen's eyes lit up. He said excitedly, "The aura is strong. Your strength has definitely reached the Fifth Tier of the Qi Transformation Realm."
"Fang Chen, I did not expect you to reach the Fifth Tier of the Qi Transformation Realm in such a short time. You're really amazing," Duan Muwen could not help but praise.
Fang Chen slowly put away the Qingyun Sword and smiled. "Uncle Wen, I hope that I can help you solve your problems."
Hearing Fang Chen's words, a knowing smile appeared on Duan Muwen's face.
"Good. This time, you will lead the team. Hahaha." Duan Muwen was very happy.
On this day, the Duanmu Palace was very lively. Duan Muwen had set up a banquet to welcome Fang Chen. Not for anything else, but for Fang Chen's heaven-defying potential. It was worth it to protect the king.
After a night of silence, Fang Chen went to the Chamber of Commerce early in the morning to ask about the Qi Transformation Pill. However, he was told that the Qi Transformation Pill had not been refined yet.
"I wonder if I can meet the alchemy master of your Chamber of Commerce?" Fang Chen asked.
The staff member shook his head. "Master Tianhe does not meet strangers."
Fang Chen secretly passed some mid-tier spirit stones to the staff member. Then he said, "Help me out."
The staff member took the spirit stones and nodded slightly. "I can only let you know. As for whether Master Tianhe will meet you, it is hard to say."
After a while, the staff came back with a smile on his face. "You're in luck. Grandmaster Tianhe is resting. You can go in now."
The staff member led Fang Chen along a small path and into a secluded courtyard. The courtyard was surrounded by bamboos.
When Fang Chen entered the courtyard, he saw a white-haired old man sitting on a stool in the middle of the courtyard.
"Master Tianhe, I have brought him here." After saying that, the staff member turned and left.
Fang Chen looked at Master Tianhe. The latter was also sizing him up.
After a long while, Master Tianhe spoke.
"Do you want to learn alchemy?" asked Master Tianhe.
Fang Chen shook his head slightly. "Master Tianhe, I came here to ask for a favor."
Every day, countless disciples wanted to be apprenticed to Master Tianhe. However, under normal circumstances, Master Tianhe would not accept disciples.
Today, Master Tianhe happened to be resting. When the staff member told him, he thought that Fang Chen wanted to learn alchemy. Since he was free, he wanted to see if there were any outstanding warriors.
When Master Tianhe saw Fang Chen for the first time, he felt that Fang Chen was a good seedling to learn alchemy.
"Oh, I see." Master Tianhe frowned slightly.
With Master Tianhe's status in Shengfeng Nation, he would not help at all. However, Fang Chen had piqued his interest.
"I need a Transforming Energy Pill. I hope Master Tianhe can help me refine it," said Fang Chen.
"If you want a Transforming Energy Pill, just wait in line," said Master Tianhe.
Every few days, Master Tianhe would refine a furnace of elixirs for the Chamber of Commerce to sell. The last batch of Transforming Energy Pills had been sold out. However, he would not refine it unless it was time.
"Master Tianhe, I have an urgent matter. I can't wait. I hope Master Tianhe can help me," said Fang Chen hurriedly.
Great Master Tian He's face slightly changed, and he said coldly, "Hmph, it's not up to you to tell me when to refine pills. If it wasn't for the fact that you're a disciple of Divine Wind Sword Mansion, I wouldn't even bother talking to you."
When Fang Chen entered the courtyard, Master Tianhe noticed the symbol on Fang Chen's clothes. He was a disciple of Kamikaze Kenbu.
"Master Tianhe, if you can help me refine a Transforming Energy Pill, I am willing to pay any price," said Fang Chen, unwilling to give up.
"Hmph, you can leave now." Master Tianhe waved his hand and ignored Fang Chen.
Seeing Master Tianhe's expression, Fang Chen grinned bitterly and immediately took out a piece of paper.
"Master Tianhe, this is an elixir recipe that I accidentally found while exploring a ruin. I have studied it carefully. This elixir recipe should have been passed down from ancient times. If you can help me refine a Transforming Energy Pill, I am willing to give this elixir recipe to you," said Fang Chen slowly while holding the paper.
Hearing the words "elixir recipe," Master Tianhe, who had closed his eyes, opened his eyes slightly and immediately looked at Fang Chen.
"The elixir recipe depends on whether it is valuable," said Master Tianhe.
As an Alchemy Master, Master Tianhe did not care about ordinary elixir recipes, unless they were long-lost elixir recipes or elixir recipes passed down from ancient times.
Fang Chen handed the elixir recipe to Master Tianhe and let him take a look.
Master Tianhe picked up the elixir recipe and looked at it carefully.
At first, Master Tianhe's expression was very indifferent, but after looking at it for a while, his expression suddenly became serious.
In the end, Master Tianhe's breathing became a little rapid.
"This …"
After a long while, Master Tianhe's eyes were full of passion. He held the elixir recipe in his hand and said excitedly, "If my guess is right, this elixir recipe is definitely passed down from ancient times."
"Master Tianhe, what about the elixir recipe?" asked Fang Chen.
"Okay, no problem. I will refine the elixir for you now." Master Tianhe readily agreed and let Fang Chen watch him refine the elixir.
Fang Chen nodded slightly with a smile on his face.
In fact, this elixir recipe was not obtained from the ruin as he said, but from the scarlet skeleton.
After all, the Yellow Spring Sect was very prosperous back then and must have collected a lot of elixir recipes. Fang Chen just asked casually and the scarlet skeleton took out such an elixir recipe.
At first, Fang Chen was not sure whether this elixir recipe could move Master Tianhe. Now it seemed that this elixir recipe was much more attractive than he thought.
Master Tianhe put away the elixir recipe and began refining the elixir in front of Fang Chen without saying a word.
"Tell everyone that I will be refining elixir in seclusion for the next two days. No one is to disturb me." Master Tianhe ordered his servant.
After everything was arranged, Master Tianhe began refining the elixir while Fang Chen watched in the courtyard.
Although the process of refining the elixir was not slow, it was not fast either.
Fang Chen watched Master Tianhe refining the elixir. From time to time, Master Tianhe would enter a state of epiphany, which made Fang Chen very happy.
"The Great Dao is simple. All paths lead to the same destination. Even though the Dao of Alchemy is different from the Dao of Martial Arts, there are still similarities between them," Fang Chen thought to himself.
If he could often watch Master Tianhe refining elixir, his cultivation might be faster.
Time passed bit by bit. In the blink of an eye, a day had passed. Since Master Tianhe was refining elixir in batches, it took a long time.
During this time, Fang Chen had been waiting.
What Fang Chen did not know was that the outside world was in an uproar because Master Tianhe was refining elixir in seclusion.
In the past, Master Tianhe had a rule. When he was refining elixir, he would allow a warrior to watch. Whoever paid the most Spirit Stones could watch.
At this time, there were many warriors in the Chamber of Commerce. Their faces were full of anger.
"I paid the most Spirit Stones. Why can't I go in when Master Tianhe is refining elixir?" a man with a ferocious face asked coldly.
"Someone is already watching Master Tianhe refining elixir. You can't go in," the staff said.
"Why is there no registration if someone went in? The rule was set by you. Now you don't follow the rule. What is the meaning of this?"
"Master Tianhe once said that whoever pays the most Spirit Stones can watch him refine elixir. Why is it not allowed this time? There must be a conspiracy."
