89 Chapter 88 Today, My Show!_1
Due to the death of a Late Stage Foundation Establishment Cultivator, The Great River District was stirred into a huge turmoil.
The Golden Core Ascendant Master from Ailao Mountain was absolutely livid, summoning all the Foundation Establishment Cultivators in the area for a meeting.
However, in the end, no findings were made.
It was rumored that the Golden Core Ascendant Master directly stormed into the Yu Ding Sword Pavilion, causing a tense situation with the two Yu Ding Sword Cultivators in the area.
The massive aura of the Golden Core almost encompassed the entire Inner City.
Nonetheless, these matters ultimately had nothing to do with Luo Chen.
The death of a nouveau riche and a construction contractor who also happened to be his son-in-law was nothing to do with him.
The only thing related to him was a single matter.
That was the opening of the Pill Hall.
For this reason, he spent practically the entire last three days at Crescent Valley.
He had no expectation from those brats.
But the Middle Stage Cultivators dispatched by the Broken Mountain Gang were highly valued by him.
For these three days, he did nothing but instructed these twenty people on how to control the fire!
Yes, it was about controlling the fire!
When to increase the heat, when to lower it. Updated from novelbIn.(c)om
When to draw and add firewood, and how much.
When the temperature is not enough, to what extent the Fireball Technique should be unleashed.
In short, Luo Chen imparted more than half of his lifetime learning about fire control.
Moreover, the medicinal materials he needed were all sent by Mi Shuhua's people, either through procurement or provided directly by the Medicine Hall after processing.
In summary, Luo Chen never needed to worry about obtaining medicinal materials anymore.
Time went swiftly, regardless of the storms in the outside world, the three days passed in the blink of an eye.
This day, in the Crescent Valley!
Out of the two hundred Late Stage Qi Refinement Cultivators from the Broken Mountain Gang, more than half arrived, barring a few who stayed behind.
Under the leadership of Gu Caiyi and Sikong Shoujia, hundreds of people entered Crescent Valley one after another.
Various familiar bustling ceremonies began one after another.
Soon, it was time for the main event!
Starting the alchemy stove!
"Is that young lad Luo Chen?"
"The Hall Master of the Pill Hall is so young!"
"From the looks of it, he's not more than thirty. His Realm is a bit low though, I wonder how good his alchemy skills are."
"If he wasn't good, Old Mi wouldn't have forcibly placed him on this position."
"I heard that we can all enjoy the benefits from the Pill Hall's income, is that true or false?"
"Heh, you believe that? The ones who will enjoy the major share are probably those Hall Masters and upper echelons at the Ninth Level Qi Refinement! We should just honestly earn our spirit stones by using our energy."
"Look at what you're saying, isn't your brother one of the ones transferred to the reserve team? Once the Pill Hall produces pills, they will be the ones selling them, right?"
"Can't say for sure, really can't say for sure!"
Amid the murmuring, Luo Chen made his grand entrance.
There was no self-introduction.
He didn't have the time to get to know so many people anyway.
Clad in a brand-new moon-white Medium Grade Robe, with long hair strewn over his back and only a wooden hairpin on his head.
Just by appearance alone, he truly had the charisma of a True Cultivator.
However, what he did next was not as carefree.
"Start the fire!"
"Begin Alchemy!"
The three Pill Rooms in a row blazed with roaring flames.
Amid the burning aroma of the Green Steel Wood, Luo Chen, with a solemn expression, walked within each Pill Room.
A portion of materials, passing through his hands and following specific proportions, were placed into the Pill Furnace.
Especially the large Pill Room in the middle, with a human-height large Pill Tripod inside. When placing the medicinal materials, aside from using the Attraction Technique, Luo Chen himself even had to perform the Wind Riding Technique to oversee from above.
He looked at others, finally noticing the shock on everyone's faces.
"Both of mine are Ascendant-grade!"
"I have one Medium-grade and one Ascendant grade, based on the flaws in the pill imprints!"
"Two Medium-grade ones!"
"One lower grade, one Ascendant grade!"
While no one was looking, Luo Chen wiped a bead of sweat from his forehead.

Making Fasting Pills wasn't difficult, and making Ascendant-grade Fasting Pills wasn't difficult for him either.
What really strained him was concocting Fasting Pills of different grades in the same furnace.
From Ascendant to medium to lower-grade, all kinds of Fasting Pills were available.
In fact, that scenario was the norm in the alchemy.
In a batch of pills, due to the convergence of medicinal properties and the control of spirit power, some would become waste pills, some would be of good quality, and some would just barely form.
The number of pills and the quality of pills were unpredictable.
Only an experienced Grandmaster in alchemy could produce pills with relatively stable quality.
Luo Chen could absolutely be considered a Grandmaster in concocting Fasting Pills, as he could make every pill an Ascendant grade one.
However, he couldn't reveal this talent in front of Uncle Mi Shuhua and the others.
Because it was just too outrageous!
If word got out, even Uncle Mi Shuhua couldn't protect him.
Who knows? Perhaps a stronger force might kidnap him and turn him into one of their tools.
In comparison to an unknown force, he preferred the Broken Mountain Gang more.
His grand plan of exploiting the gang for its resources had only just begun.
As a result, upon deciding to become the Hall Master, he spent ten full days in his home studying how to concoct "normal pills".
He wouldn't be able to do it if he was a beginner in terms of proficiency.
But, in the case of Fasting Pills, he was at the Grandmaster level, with the system providing him knowledge covering each stage of experience.
By constantly reversing the process, he managed to master the essence of it.
And that's how he managed to accomplish what he did today.
"Sixty Ascendant-grade, one hundred and twenty Medium-grade, and thirty-one Lower-grade."
Upon receiving the final tally, Uncle Mi Shuhua showed a genuinely joyful smile.
He patted Luo Chen's shoulder.
"With you, I have no worries about the Pill Hall!"
Before Luo Chen could respond with flattering words, he turned to the others.
"This batch of Fasting Pills serves as a welcoming gift for all of you. Although they aren't very valuable, it's the thought that counts."
"Our Hall Master Luo Chen's masterpiece isn't this low-grade Fasting Pill."
"He will showcase his full capabilities to refine good pills for the gang."
"With his addition to the Broken Mountain Gang, our Gang will become increasingly prosperous and the cultivational resources for everyone will also multiply."
"So, everyone must give your full support to Hall Master Luo in the future!"
This old man sure has a gift for gab.
Feeling rather helpless inside, Luo Chen nevertheless put on an appropriately proud expression on his face.
Following that, the cultivators from various branches started cheering.
"We will definitely support! We will definitely support!"
"Having Hall Master Luo is the Gang's fortune!"
"I, Long Gen, am the first to support Hall Master Luo! He will lead the Broken Mountain Gang to make a name for ourselves in the Great River District, and throughout all Yu Ding Realm!"
Hearing these flattering words that cost them nothing, Luo Chen allowed himself a smug smile.
From today onward, he had truly made a name for him.
The top Alchemist of the Broken Mountain Gang!
In the future, he might even be the top Alchemist in the Great River District, the Yu Ding Realm, and the Eastern Wasteland.
People should always have dreams, right?
