Chapter 518: Chapter 518: The Perfect Purple Mystery Pill

As the helmsman of the Pill Alliance in Xuan Country and an experienced Pill Refiner, Chen Yongnian was feeling somewhat dazed at the moment.

What on earth is happening?

Although it was surprising, it was understandable that Zhou Zhishui could perform the Spirit Invocation Skill, as she had once comprehended the fragmented Spirit Invocation Skill in the Pavilion of Hidden Books.

However, the fact that Fang Lin could also perform the Spirit Invocation Skill was somewhat unbelievable. Had Fang Lin also been to the Pavilion of Hidden Books?

This was obviously impossible. Setting aside the short time Fang Lin had been in Xuan Country, his current status would not grant him access to such an important place as the Pavilion of Hidden Books.

But this made Fang Lin’s performance of Spirit Invocation Skill all the more intriguing.

“How audacious!” Qi Sanxuan’s eyes flashed, and he suddenly let out a roar. He looked quite intimidating as he glared at everyone.

Everyone was taken aback by Qi Sanxuan’s roar, and some were discontent. What was this Qi gonna do this time?

Looking down at Fang Lin from a height, Qi Sanxuan said coldly, “Fang Lin, you’re truly bold! You dared to steal the Spirit Invocation Skill of our Pill Alliance in Xuan Country. This is an utterly heinous crime!”

Upon hearing this, everyone immediately understood and began to scrutinize Fang Lin with their gazes.

Fang Lin, however, appeared rather calm. He stood in the middle of the hall, in front of him was a floating herbal soup slowly turning into a pill. The bits of nature’s spiritual energy that constantly poured into it made the fragrance of the soup more potent.

“Fang Lin! Why don’t you just confess? When did you learn the Spirit Invocation Skill?” Qi Sanxuan glared at Fang Lin with furious eyes, emitting an overwhelming pressure, trying to force him to confess.

“Humph!” Mo Ziming snorted coldly, immediately offsetting Qi Sanxuan’s pressure and resumed their tense confrontation.

Fang Lin glanced at Zhou Zhishui, who still appeared somewhat in disbelief, and then shifted his gaze back to Qi Sanxuan, a slight, mocking smile appeared on his face.

This mocking smile only further infuriated Qi Sanxuan, making him believe that Fang Lin was deliberately provoking him.

“How audacious of you, Fang Lin, to steal the Spirit Invocation Skill and then deny it!” Qi Sanxuan roared, making an abrupt hand move. His palm was stretched out, trying to suppress Fang Lin on the spot.

“Qi Sanxuan, are you ignoring my existence?” Mo Ziming wouldn’t just stand by and watch Fang Lin get suppressed. He pointed a finger, blocking Qi Sanxuan’s attack.

“Mo Ziming! You dare to protect this Fang Lin? Could it be that you abused your power and allowed Fang Lin to sneak into the Pavilion of Hidden Books to steal the Spirit Invocation Skill?” As soon as he saw Mo Ziming make a move, Qi Sanxuan immediately slapped a heavy charge on him, regardless of whether it was reasonable or not, the accusation had been made.

“Abuse of power? Speaking of it within the vast Pill Alliance of Xuan Country, who could compete with you, Qi Sanxuan?” Mo Ziming sneered, openly mocking Qi Sanxuan.

“Such audacity! Spewing nonsense! Defaming me!” Qi Sanxuan was furious, his attacks grew increasingly fierce as if some unspeakable truth had been revealed.

“Enough!” Chen Yongnian was livid. Though he was old, he was not devoid of temper. Both Qi Sanxuan and Mo Ziming repeatedly making moves had worn his patience thin.

Chen Yongnian simultaneously reached out to Qi Sanxuan and struck Mo Ziming, intending to suppress the two experts of the Pill Alliance in Xuan Country with his power.

Boom!

Qi Sanxuan was pushed back, his face pale. Mo Ziming also retreated, his breathing rapid.

Both of them appeared shocked and looked on in disbelief at Chen Yongnian. They had seen him in action before, but they had never expected him to be so formidable, capable of suppressing both of them with a single sweep of his palm.

At that moment, they truly realized that this seemingly old leader of the Pill Alliance was not to be underestimated. If truly enraged, the consequences would be unthinkable.

“What is this chaos?” Chen Yongnian reprimanded after subduing the two.

Qi Sanxuan, unwilling to let the matter rest, bowed and said, “Elder Chen, this Fang Lin can perform the Spirit Invocation Skill, which is clearly learned through stealing. This is a grave crime that must be investigated and severely punished!”

Chen Yongnian gave Qi Sanxuan a glance and then looked at Fang Lin. Seeing that the pill in front of Fang Lin had taken shape, he couldn’t help showing a startled expression.

“Elder Chen, may I finish crafting this pill before you question me?” Fang Lin said calmly.

Chen Yongnian nodded, hinting that Fang Lin should finish the final step of the Purple Mystery Pill. He was curious to see the quality of the Purple Mystery Pill that Fang Lin would produce.

Zhou Zhishui and the other three geniuses were also quietly refining their pills. They still held the idea to compete and were confident that they could win.

Fang Lin refined the pill with his bare hands. Amidst the intertwining flames, the pill within the flame took its final form. It was entirely purple with green patterns on it, which were very regular.

Upon closer inspection, there were eight green lines, regular and neat. The fragrance of the pill was rich, and there even seemed to be a trickle of light revolving around the pill.

Meanwhile, Zhou Zhishui and the other three geniuses had also brought out the Purple Mystery Pills they had refined, one by one. For a moment, the entire hall was filled with the fragrance of pills as if hundreds of flowers were blooming together, displaying their brilliance.

“Just smelling this mix of different pill aromas, I feel like I’m going to get drunk!”

“So fragrant! I just can’t stop!”

“Judging from the aroma of the pills, it’s hard to tell who is superior!”

····

With a wave of his hand, Chen Yongnian brought the Purple Mystery Pills from the hands of Fang Lin, Zhou Zhishui, and others into his own hand.

Except for Fang Lin, the faces of Zhou Zhishui and the rest were a little anxious and hopeful.

Fang Lin remained calm, as if he didn’t care about the outcome at all, or even was like an outsider.

The most straightforward way to judge the quality of a Purple Mystery Pill is from the green patterns on it.

The more patterns it has, and the clearer and more complete they are, the better its quality.

It was evident that among the Purple Mystery Pills refined by Fang Lin and others, the one with the most green patterns was unquestionably Fang Lin’s. His pill had eight clear and complete green patterns.

The next one was Zhou Zhishui and the other three geniuses, all with six patterns. Although they were also very clear, they fell behind Fang Lin in terms of quantity.

Chen Yongnian was astounded. A pill with six patterns was considered high-grade. However, a pill with eight patterns, like Fang Lin’s, had surpassed high-grade and could almost be called perfect-grade.

Even if Chen Yongnian himself were to make it, he wasn’t sure he could make much better than the one Fang Lin had refined.

At that moment, Chen Yongnian was full of questions. How could a youngster from the Lower Three Kingdoms be so formidable?

There was no discrimination against the Lower Three Kingdoms on Chen Yongnian’s part. It was just that the resources in the Lower Three Kingdoms were scant, and the overall strength and standard were low, with only limited talents being born there.

But Fang Lin was a total anomaly, seeming to have divine help in pill refining. No problem seemed to stump him.

However, why Fang Lin could perform the Spirit Invocation Skill, and seemed to perform it flawlessly, was something Chen Yongnian could not comprehend.
