Chapter 216: Iron Alchemy Pill Scroll, Fairfrost Sage, Where To Find Such An Alchemist

Black Heaven’s Second Forefather was left in a daze.

He may not know a whole lot about alchemy, but he knew precisely how difficult it was to heal spiritual mounds, especially with their lack of a pill recipe in this current situation.

However, Chu Kuangren said he would do his own research and invent one.

It was not that he felt it to be impossible. After all, the person in question here had accomplished way too much unbelievable stuff. If normal people could not invent one, it did not mean that he could not.

Nonetheless, this was too fast!

He had only just expressed his intention two days ago, and now he had already invented it?

Black Heaven’s Second Forefather felt like he was being fooled.

A spiritual mound injury was an unsolved mystery for the alchemy world for countless years. He had lost count of how many Alchemists had delved themselves into this but ended up with nothing.

Yet Chu Kuangren had used merely two days to overturn this.

The heck, was he really human?

Suddenly, he had a flashback to the astounding achievement when Chu Kuangren managed to self-create twelve Sage Techniques consecutively in the span of half a day.

At that instant, he suddenly felt that it was not so baffling after all.

“What a freak.”

Black Heaven’s Second Forefather remarked to himself.

…

In the Firmament Star, besides Sages who dedicated themselves to becoming custodians of certain sage orthodoxies, there were some wandering Sages who did not establish nor affiliate themselves to any forces.

Take for example the Whitelock Sage of Azure Dragon Domain.

Meanwhile, there was also such a Sage in the Black Warrior Domain.

Somewhere in the valleys of the Black Warrior Domain.

On this day, many cultivators were gathered here in the valley.

These people were looking towards the inside of the valley with their faces full of anticipation.

“I didn’t expect Fairfrost Sage would one day invite us over to witness the Iron Alchemy Pill Scroll. This is marvelous.”

“Legend has it that the Iron Alchemy Pill Scroll contains the inheritance of an Alchemy Grandmaster. Whoever can patch up the eighty-eight tattered pill recipe pages left on there would be able to obtain the inheritance. Said person would surely improve by leaps and bounds after that.”

“Agreed. I mean, that’s an Alchemy Grandmaster that we’re talking about. Even Sages would have to show some respect.”

“If only I could patch up the pill recipes on there. Hehe.”

“In your dreams.”

Just then, an elder who was heavily guarded by some people arrived at the place.

This elder was donned in a white robe and looked extremely friendly. However, all the Alchemists surrounding them appeared to be very respectful towards this elder.

“Master Lee, it’s been a while.”

“I didn’t expect to see you here, Master Lee. Your glorious acts of refining Honorable-Grade Supreme Pills back in the day is still fresh in my memory.”

“Master Lee is the most distinguished person of our entire Black Warrior Domain or even the whole Firmament Star. With you here, I’m sure we’d be able to fill in and patch up the remaining pill recipes in the Iron Alchemy Pill Scroll this time. ”

“That’s right…”

“I’m flattered. I don’t deserve such high praises.”

Although Master Lee was trying hard to suppress his delight, everyone could tell how much he was enjoying this shower of adore from his eyes and smiles.

Just then, from not far away, another person too walked down with the crowd showering him with praise. This person was the Alchemist who had joined the Black Heaven Sect, Master Gujiang.

Master Lee glanced towards him, not looking too delighted.

“Oh, there I was thinking who that might be. Turns out that it’s Master Gu.”

Master Lee commented in a weird manner.

At that remark, Master Gujiang turned towards him as his expression turned glum too. He let out a light scoff in response. “Master Lee, I didn’t expect to see you here either.”

“Fairfrost Sage is about to open the Iron Alchemy Pill Scroll to the public, how could I not attend? I heard that Master Gujiang has joined the Black Heaven Sect recently. I, for one, did not expect that you would travel such a long distance here. I bet it must be very tiring for someone at your age.”

“Likewise.”

“I always thought that Master Gu’s a lone wolf. You never joined any forces because you always held yourself at too high a prestige for them. I can’t say I quite understand why you’ve decided to join the Black Heaven Sect.”

“That’s none of your business, I believe.”

“Pft.”

Tensions start to rise between these two Alchemy Masters.

Upon seeing that, the rest of the Alchemists around them started to whisper gossips.

“I heard that Master Lee is not on good terms with Master Gu, so it seems that it’s true.”

“Can’t say I’m surprised. These two have been trying to get one over the other for a hundred years now.”

“What is up between these two?”

“Hehe, if two men ride on the horse, one must ride behind. Both of them are equally giants in the alchemy world, but they often have differing opinions with regards to alchemy. Things developed from a small tension to a large conflict, and as time went on, things became as sour as it is today.”

“Two of a trade could never agree.”

Amongst the crowd.

Two people glanced at Gujiang with a weird look on their faces.

These two people had a faint layer of spiritual-powered brilliance covering their faces, so people could not see their faces clearly. However, people could vaguely tell from the structure of their faces that they were both individuals with peerless beauty!

These two were Chu Kuangren and Lan Yu.

They only hid their true appearance because they looked too extraordinary, especially Chu Kuangren.

They had only taken the extra precaution to not cause too big a commotion.

“I can’t believe I’d meet Master Gu here.”

Chu Kuangren mumbled.

Then, he withdrew his glance and looked toward a deep part of the valley.

Based on his Treasure Locating Skill’s senses, the Seven Colored Nebula Flower lied within the deepest reaches of this valley, while this place was inhabited by a Sage.

After connecting the dots, he bet that this Seven Colored Nebula Flower belonged to that Sage too. As such, he had to put in more effort in obtaining this precious herb.

Right then, a flash of light swept across the valley.

It was a pretty-looking female cultivator. In a soft-spoken voice, she announced to the crowd, “The Sage welcomes everyone into the valley.”

Joy was etched on everyone’s faces as they entered the valley one after another. After all of them went inside the valley, they were instantly mesmerized by the various types of magical flora in there.

“This is the Snow Bluegrass. There’s so many of them.”

“Wow, the Seven-Petal Snow Lily. A valuable herb like this would cost at least ten thousand Top-tier soulstones out there. I can’t believe that there are so many in here that they’re just scattered all over the ground.”

“Look, those are Honorable-Grade Supreme Pills on the mountain wall!”

The crowd of Alchemists gasped in awe as if they had never seen such greatness.

Chu Kuangren himself was quite astonished as well.

“It appears that this Sage is rather proficient in botany.”

The people witnessed numerous types of unique and rare flora until they arrived at an empty ground in one part of the valley. Right there on a tree was a… book?!

This book was too enormous in size, and it stood there like a giant stele. Runes of words and symbols were carved on it, but many parts were left blank amongst the writings as though they were incomplete.

In front of this very book sat a lady in a white gown. Her raven hair was at a waist’s length, her skin fair, her facial features delicate, and her temperament elegant.

“It’s Fairfrost Sage.”

“Greetings, Fairfrost Sage.”

“Greetings, Fairfrost Sage.”

Met with a Sage before them, the people dared not show any slightest sign of disrespect as they quickly bowed.

Fairfrost Sage simply smiled at the crowd. “Greeting everyone, there’s no need to be courteous. I think all of you should know by now why I’ve invited everyone here today.”

“Just like all of you, I’m an Alchemist myself. This Iron Alchemy Pill Scroll has remained in my possession for over a thousand years, but I still cannot completely recover all of the pill recipes throughout this period. Hence I have no choice but to invite every one of you here to solve it with me. I hope that with the strength of unity, we’ll be able to achieve some breakthrough.”

Fairfrost Sage’s voice was soft yet crisp as it spread into everyone’s ears. Everyone then looked at the Iron Alchemy Pill Scroll with a searing gaze.

“Dear Sage, legend has it that this Iron Alchemy Pill Scroll contains the inheritance of an Alchemy Grandmaster. May I ask if this is true?”

One of the Alchemists braved himself and asked.

“You’re right.” Fairfrost Sage nodded slightly.

“If there really is someone here today who can patch up all of the pill recipes, mind if I ask, to whom will this Alchemy Grandmaster’s inheritance belong to?”

“Hehe, whoever recovers the most pill recipes would obtain it.”

Fairfrost Sage was rather amused by that.

What a joke that was.

She had studied it for over a thousand years, yet she had only managed to recover about a dozen pill recipes. She did not believe that anyone here would be able to completely recover the pill recipes.

Today, she had summoned so many Alchemists here because she wanted to utilize the strength in numbers and attempt to patch up a few of the recipes left.

As for recovering all of the remaining pill recipes, she did not harbor too much hope for that.

Where could she even find such an amazing Alchemist on Firmament Star?
