Chapter 548 Great Return Pill!
Everyone’s facial expressions were unfriendly.
Because Lin Badian’s laughter was clearly mocking.
In such a serious occasion, regardless of why he laughed like that, it made people feel displeased.
“Young friend, if you have any insights, please share them,” Elder Yuqing frowned and said.
Lin Badian looked at Elder Yuqing and smiled, “What I say might be hurtful, are you sure you want me to speak?”
“Hurtful? It’s fine, go ahead and speak.” Elder Yuqing forced a smile, which combined with his furrowed brows made his expression particularly strange.
“Very well, I’ll be direct.” Lin Badian looked at the pill furnace and said, “This pill of yours cannot be considered high-grade.”
Hearing these words, the people around looked at Lin Badian as if he were a fool.
Such rich medicinal fragrance permeated the entire hall.
If this wasn’t high-grade, what kind of elixir would qualify as high-grade?
Which family does this guy belong to? He clearly knows nothing about alchemy!
“If not high-grade, then what is it?” Elder Yuqing’s face grew increasingly gloomy as he asked.
“It’s not quite ordinary, but can only barely be considered medium-grade,” Lin Badian said.
Barely medium-grade!?
At this, the entire hall erupted in heated discussion.
“Hey, if you don’t understand alchemy, don’t talk nonsense! This isn’t your home…”
“Exactly, who gave you the right to speak like that?”
“Get out of here, stop trying to show off! This is Wancao Sect!”
On the high platform, the Seventh Elder standing to the side had a livid expression.
Because he recognized Lin Badian and Fang Yu.
These two guys must be causing trouble deliberately because of what happened at the stone gate earlier!
They must be driven out and blacklisted, never to be provided with medicinal herbs again!
In the crowd, Ke’er tugged at Yang Chuyu’s arm and said, “Sister Yang, I told you! These two are not good people! They’re just fools deliberately causing trouble!”
Yang Chuyu looked at Lin Badian and Fang Yu, who remained calm and composed despite being surrounded by hostile people, her delicate eyebrows slightly furrowed.
From an objective standpoint, Lin Badian’s words were extremely arrogant.
And saying such things in front of everyone was both reckless and impolite.
Wancao Sect was not just any sect, especially its alchemy branch, which held a prestigious position.
Now that Lin Badian had spoken this way, the situation would be difficult to resolve.
On another side of the crowd.
Yu Shijie and Yu Nan looked at Lin Badian with furrowed brows, feeling that he seemed familiar.
“Nan’er, doesn’t this person look a bit like that powerful will we saw at the bottom of Qiankun Mountain yesterday…” Yu Shijie asked quietly.
Yu Nan stared at Lin Badian, her brows tightly knit, carefully recalling and feeling there was indeed some resemblance, but not completely.
“It can’t be him. That was just a guardian will, it couldn’t become a real person and come to this place,” Yu Nan said.
“Yes, I also think it’s impossible,” Yu Shijie said.
From their vantage point, they could only see Lin Badian, not Fang Yu standing beside him.
Otherwise, they would have reached a different conclusion.
And Lin Badian’s appearance had indeed changed.
Yesterday, when he first took human form at the bottom of Qiankun Mountain, he had somewhat beautified his appearance.
But later, under Fang Yu’s mockery, he had to change his face back to its true form and also changed into modern clothing.
That’s why Yu Shijie and Yu Nan couldn’t recognize him.
On the high platform, the Seventh Elder’s face was extremely dark as he was about to speak to drive away Lin Badian and Fang Yu.
But at this moment, Elder Yuqing spoke: “It seems the young friend has his own understanding of alchemy. Then, can you demonstrate what qualifies as a high-grade elixir?”
“Of course I can, but you’ll need to lend me a pill furnace,” Lin Badian said.
“You don’t even have a pill furnace, yet you dare claim to understand alchemy?”
The alchemists on the high platform flashed contemptuous looks.
In their eyes, Lin Badian was just a clown seeking attention.
“Very well.” Elder Yuqing flicked his left hand, and the Small Spirit Gathering Pill flew out of the furnace.
Then, Elder Yuqing gently pushed, sending the furnace flying toward Lin Badian’s position at high speed.
Lin Badian raised his hand to catch the furnace.
At this moment, Elder Yuqing’s lips curled into a cold smile.
The furnace contained hidden force; ordinary people couldn’t possibly catch it.
“Slap!”
But in the next second, Lin Badian effortlessly grabbed the furnace in his hand.
Elder Yuqing was stunned, his gaze toward Lin Badian becoming more piercing.
“I also need some materials to refine the pill,” Lin Badian said.
Elder Yuqing didn’t speak but flicked his right hand.
A small storage pouch was thrown toward Lin Badian.
Lin Badian caught the storage pouch, glanced at it, and smiled, “There are quite a few types of herbs inside.”
“Then I’ll begin.”
The surrounding people instinctively stepped back.
Fang Yu and Qin Lang also stepped back, leaving Lin Badian in the middle of the crowd.
Lin Badian’s attention-seeking personality hadn’t changed in thousands of years.
But almost every time he sought attention, he succeeded perfectly.
The only few times he failed were when he encountered Fang Yu.
It was through these conflicts that they became acquainted, and it was precisely because of those few failures that Lin Badian and Fang Yu became good friends.
But now, Fang Yu didn’t want to be brought into the spotlight alongside Lin Badian.
He had more important matters to attend to in Dongdu.
Lin Badian placed handfuls of herbs into the furnace, his movements quite crude.
The alchemists on the high platform shook their heads as they watched.
In the process of pill refinement, every step was extremely important and would affect the final quality.
And Lin Badian’s method of randomly throwing things in clearly showed he was an amateur.
“What he’s throwing in aren’t even the herbs for refining the Small Spirit Gathering Pill!” an alchemist discovered and said.
“He doesn’t even know the formula for the Small Spirit Gathering Pill, yet he dares to speak… It’s only because Elder Yuqing is good-tempered. If it were me, I would have had him driven away long ago!” another alchemist said.
Elder Yuqing looked at Lin Badian, his gaze increasingly cold.
He had thought Lin Badian had some skill, but now it seemed he had no foundation in alchemy at all!
“Whoosh!”
At this moment, Lin Badian covered the furnace with its lid and his left palm suddenly ignited with a large golden flame.
A scorching and pure aura instantly filled the entire hall!
“This, this is…”
On the second floor of the hall, several elders of the alchemy branch changed their expressions dramatically.
This aura, the color of the flame…
Was this a ninth-grade pill fire!?
Even if not, it was at least seventh-grade or above!
How could this man possibly cultivate such a high-grade pill fire!
It should be known that in their entire alchemy branch, the most senior and powerful Elder Huiyuan had only cultivated a third-grade pill fire!
Elder Yuqing on the high platform was equally shocked, his eyes filled with disbelief.
“Done.”
A few seconds later, the pill fire on Lin Badian’s left palm extinguished.
An extremely rich medicinal fragrance emanated from the furnace, permeating the entire hall in just a few seconds.
This fragrance was not just a simple aroma; it even had a stimulating effect on one’s spirit!
Those who smelled this fragrance all felt refreshed and clear-minded.
“This level qualifies as high-grade,” Lin Badian said, while removing the lid.
After removing the lid, the fragrance intensified, causing the surrounding crowd to emit sighs of comfort.
“The Small Spirit Gathering Pill is too simple, this is the Great Restoration Pill,” Lin Badian said.
“Great, Great Restoration Pill!?”
The alchemists on the high platform opened their mouths wide enough to fit an egg, their faces full of shock.
The Great Restoration Pill was absolutely a top-tier elixir, its formula extremely rare, and the refinement process quite difficult.
And the function of the Great Restoration Pill was to save lives!
Carrying one Great Restoration Pill was equivalent to having an extra life!
Therefore, a single Great Restoration Pill in the pill market could reach the point of being priceless!
This man seemingly casually refined what most people present wanted to buy but couldn’t obtain – a Great Restoration Pill!?
Unbelievable!
“Master, are you selling this Great Restoration Pill!? I’m willing to pay a high price!” At this moment, someone quick to react shouted.
With his lead, many people reacted and started calling out one after another.
“Master, I can offer the highest price for this Great Restoration Pill…”
“Master…”
“Don’t bother, I’m not selling,” Lin Badian smiled slightly, looking toward a direction to his left front, “I want to give this Great Restoration Pill to this fellow Daoist on behalf of my friend.”
