Ye Xingchen nodded his head, then said seriously: "I learned all of my pill refining skills by myself, I'll think about it myself."

Zhou Tongyang nodded his head. He had sensed Ye Xingchen's Soul Force as well, to have such a strong Soul Force at Ye Xingchen's age was indeed a very talented person.

The reason why Zhou Tongyang had brought Ye Xingchen here was because he had discovered Ye Xingchen's powerful Soul Force. If he wanted to become an alchemist, the strength of the Soul Force was essential.

However, when he found out that Ye Xingchen was a Level 4 Alchemist, Zhou Tongyang was slightly surprised.

To become a Level 4 Alchemist before reaching twenty years of age, one had to rely on self-learning, and that was something rarely seen even in Martial Soul Empire. Furthermore, when Zhou Tongyang was at his age, he was only a Secondary alchemist, moreover barely.

Zhou Tongyang looked at Ye Xingchen's expression and his heart was filled with shock. He absolutely was a monstrous genius, he never thought that he would actually meet such a genius here.

Looking at Ye Xingchen's expression, Zhou Tongyang laughed helplessly, and then asked Ye Xingchen gently: "Oh right, I still don't know what your name is?"

"Ye Xingchen." Ye Xingchen anxiously said.

"That's right, Ye Xingchen. A good name." Zhou Tongyang was very happy at the moment, he never thought that he would meet such a heaven opposing genius in this kind of place. He continued to ask: "Ye Xingchen, are you willing to learn my refining techniques?"

Learn Zhou Tongyang's Alchemy Techniques?

At this moment, Ye Xingchen was well aware that Zhou Tongyang was not only powerful, his pill refining skills were also probably not any weaker.

Learning Alchemy from Zhou Tongyang would definitely allow him to learn a lot of things.

"Senior Zhou, are you willing to teach me alchemy?" Ye Xingchen was overjoyed upon hearing this, and asked.

"Yes, you are the most talented alchemist I've ever seen. However, without a systematic study, you are still unable to master alchemy skills. I want to take you in as my disciple." Zhou Tongyang spoke out his own thoughts.

Ye Xingchen was startled. Take Zhou Tongyang as his master?

"But before that, I need to tell you one thing. I'm a Level 7 Alchemist." Zhou Tongyang said while laughing.

Ye Xingchen was shocked when he heard it.

The Level 7 alchemist was talking and laughing with him, and the old man who was going to take him as a disciple was actually a Level 7 alchemist.

There was a total of nine levels to the Dao of alchemy, with the lowest being the first, and the highest being the ninth.

Zhou Danqing who walked out of the Great Yan County a hundred years ago was now a Level Eight alchemist whose name shook the entire continent and was the vice president of the Alchemist Association's headquarters.

Although this Zhou Tongyang in front of him was slightly weaker than Zhou Danqing, he was definitely a very powerful existence.

This was the most powerful Alchemist Ye Xingchen had ever seen. The most powerful one he had ever seen was only a Level 4 Alchemist.

A fourth rank alchemist could be considered an extremely rare existence in the Martial Soul Empire, but what about a Level 7 alchemist?

An alchemist with Level 7 was definitely an existence that was as rare as phoenix feathers and qilin horns.

Thinking about it, Ye Xingchen was dumbfounded.

Looking at Ye Xingchen's expression, Zhou Tongyang nodded his head, anyone would be shocked when they heard about the Level 7 alchemist.

After a long while, Ye Xingchen finally recovered his calm, and looked at Zhou Tongyang with blazing eyes.

"Ye Xingchen, have you thought about it properly? If you want to become my disciple, you must follow my rules." Zhou Tongyang said loudly, "Of course, I do not have many rules, as long as you do not harm others with your pill refiners, and do not kill innocents, it is fine."

"Senior Zhou, I am willing, I am willing to be your disciple." After Ye Xingchen heard this, he did not ponder any further, and spoke the words directly.

"Since that's the case, then I'll accept you as my master." Zhou Tongyang said with a smile on his face.

After that, Ye Xingchen just needed to pay respects and officially became Zhou Tongyang's disciple.

Zhou Tongyang looked at Ye Xingchen's smiling face, and muttered to himself in his heart: "Hopefully I won't misjudge you again."

Just like this, Ye Xingchen received Zhou Tongyang's acknowledgement, and succeeded.

Ye Xingchen also didn't expect that after accepting a three star mission, he would foolishly become the disciple of a Level 7 alchemist.

"Ye Xingchen, from today onwards, I will be teaching you some of my pill refining methods and some of my experiences. You must learn them well." Zhou Tongyang said loudly. Since he had chosen his successor, Zhou Tongyang had to pass down all of his absolute arts to him.

seemed to be taking in disciples rashly, but in reality, it wasn't so. First, because of Ye Xingchen's outstanding Soul Force, Second, was his [Inherent Skill], a young man who was not even twenty years old yet had managed to cultivate to become a Level 4 [Alchemist]. Even in the entire Desolate Domain, this [Inherent Skill] was considered pretty impressive.

During his conversation with Ye Xingchen, Zhou Tongyang had been paying attention to Ye Xingchen's expression and eyes.

A person could lie, but the look in their eyes would never lie. Especially Zhou Tongyang who had never seen a big wave before, what kind of person had he not seen before?

Zhou Tongyang saw purity in Ye Xingchen's eyes, without a single trace of evil.

Therefore, Zhou Tongyang thought that Ye Xingchen was not a cunning and petty person, that was why he decided to take Ye Xingchen as his disciple.

Starting from today, Ye Xingchen would begin a hellish training that Zhou Tongyang had customized for him.

In the afternoon, Zhou Tongyang taught Ye Xingchen alchemy techniques and at night, Ye Xingchen meditated quietly.

When Ye Xingchen was training, everyone whose Dark Blue Valley were in a coma had returned to their Hun Tian City. However, the Adventurer Union said that not a single person had completed their mission.

Zhou Tongyang did all of this deliberately, and let them go, because he no longer needed to choose any more.

When all of the Adventurer s failed the mission, everyone was surprised. Why did they still not cancel the mission?

Under normal circumstances, after everyone failed the quest, the quest would either be cancelled or leveled up.

Just at this time, the Adventurer Association said that there was still one more Hunting Group that had yet to return, so the mission could not be cancelled or levelled up.

Very quickly, everyone found out which Hunting Group this person who hadn't returned was.

Star Hunting Group.

When everyone heard this news, they immediately boiled over. The Astral Hunting Group was the combination of Ye Xingchen and Xiao Shi's Hunting Group, and was known by everyone in the Hun Tian City.

When everyone found out that Ye Xingchen was still executing his mission, they were all paying attention to the announcement of the Adventurer Association, wanting to know whether or not Ye Xingchen had completed his mission.

Amongst the crowd, Wu Liuwen looked at the Adventurer Guild's mission notice board with a dark and cold face as he muttered to himself, "Ye Xingchen, it's best if you die in Dark Blue Valley. Otherwise, I will definitely not let you off."

These few days, the Adventurer's Association's entrance was bustling with noise and excitement, all of them waiting for Ye Xingchen's return.

As for Ye Xingchen, who was in the Dark Blue Valley, he did not know about these things and was only focused on cultivation.

Today, was the one month that Ye Xingchen was in the Dark Blue Valley.

In this period of time, Ye Xingchen had given him pointers, although his strength had not increased by much, his pill refining skills had increased by leaps and bounds, and even Zhou Tongyang had a whole new level of respect for him.

After a month of time, Ye Xingchen's Intent Domain was already capable of refining a fourth stage High Grade Pill on its own.

It must be known that at the level of a Level 4 Alchemist, it was extremely difficult to advance further. After a month, Ye Xingchen was actually able to refine a Level 4 High Grade Pill, which was enough to shock the entire world.

Today, Zhou Tongyang gave Ye Xingchen a pill formula.

Zhou Tongyang said that this would be the test to become a level 4 alchemist. As long as Ye Xingchen could concoct this Channel Opening Pill, Ye Xingchen would be considered a true level 4 alchemist, and would be considered one of the top.

Ye Xingchen looked at the medicinal formula, and then muttered to himself. "Gold Silver Grass, Parasol Tree, Blue Stamp."

Ye Xingchen looked at the pill formulas in his hands, and then took out the herbs required to concoct the pills one by one from the pile of herbs.

Ye Xingchen took out his own treasure, a Medicinal Cauldron, from the Martial God Realm.

Ye Xingchen placed the pitch black Medicinal Cauldron in front of him and then removed the cover.

Then he took a deep breath and placed the herbs selected into the Medicinal Cauldron one by one before putting the cover back on.

Suddenly, Ye Xingchen's body emitted the aura of an alchemist. After that, the Spiritual Strength in his body began to circulate rapidly, and the Innate Flame in his dantian became more and more exuberant.

Ye Xingchen looked at the Innate Flame on his two palms, and then placed his palms on top of the Medicinal Cauldron.

Ever since he knew that Ye Xingchen had Innate Flame, Zhou Tongyang was even more happy. He never thought that Ye Xingchen actually had Innate Flame.

However, he also understood that for Ye Xingchen to be able to reach his current level at such a young age, the Innate Flame must be extremely important.

Zhou Tongyang was very happy, this time he had accepted a disciple who was not simple, but after seeing Ye Xingchen concoct pills for a month, he did not find Ye Xingchen's Innate Flame weird at all.

Ye Xingchen was wholeheartedly refining the pellets, and did not seem to notice Zhou Tongyang's gaze in the slightest. In just a moment, he had already heard the sizzling sounds made by the medicinal herbs within the Medicinal Cauldron.

Slowly, the sizzling sound from the Medicinal Cauldron became weaker and weaker, until it was almost gone.

"It's time." Suddenly, with one hand, Ye Xingchen picked up a small bottle from the ground. Inside the bottle, there was some water.

This water was not ordinary water, but the main ingredient for the Channel Opening Pill.

Ye Xingchen skillfully channeled the small bottle of water into the Medicinal Cauldron.

Abruptly, the Medicinal Cauldron's temperature shot straight up, even Ye Xingchen felt a burning sensation.

One hour, four hours, six hours.

After five hours, Ye Xingchen could feel that the pellet was slowly taking shape, and a burst of fragrance drifted out from the Medicinal Cauldron.

Ye Xingchen did not relax even a little. He knew that the most important thing to do next was to form the Pethan.

The flame on Ye Xingchen's palm suddenly grew larger as a fire dragon rapidly flew into the Medicinal Cauldron and coiled itself around it.
