Celestial Emperor of Devouring-Chapter 709 - 699: Exceptionally High State of Mind
"Thank you, Young Master Feng!"
The Nine Heavens Palace Master clasped his hands in gratitude and said, "I apologize for any offenses earlier, I hope Young Master Feng will forgive us."
"I understand." Gu Chenfeng smiled faintly, "A treasure like the Space Immortal Stone is rare and hard to come by; no one would willingly give it to someone else."
The Grand Elder then asked, "Young Master Feng, are you also an alchemist? Which grade alchemist are you?"
Considering Gu Chenfeng’s terrifying power at such a young age and his ability to produce the Ancient Alchemy Technique, the Grand Elder believed that Gu Chenfeng’s alchemy realm must be extraordinary.
"I am currently a First-Grade Alchemist." Gu Chenfeng smiled gently.
"First Grade?" The Nine Heavens Palace Master and the three elders were instantly bewildered.
Impossible!
Absolutely impossible!
How could a First-Grade Alchemist possess a powerful Ancient Alchemy Technique? How could he also produce an Eighth-Grade pill formula that boosts cultivation?
Seeing the disbelief in the expressions of the Nine Heavens Palace Master and the three elders, Flame Shadow shrugged with a smile and said, "What he says is true; he is indeed at the realm of a First-Grade Alchemist now."
Gu Chenfeng had just ascended to the Immortal Realm several days ago and hadn’t had time to cultivate, so his alchemy realm was truly only at the First Grade.
The Grand Elder asked again, "Young Master Feng, I am unable to cultivate such a powerful alchemy technique, and I’m worried about failing, especially with the Eighth-Grade elixir, which I have never refined before. If I encounter any issues, how should we resolve them?"
Gu Chenfeng smiled faintly, "If any problems arise, come to the Celestial Shadow Immortal Palace to find me."
"That’s wonderful! Thank you, Young Master Feng!" The Grand Elder hurriedly clasped his hands in gratitude, feeling completely at ease.
Gu Chenfeng looked at the Nine Heavens Palace Master with a smile and said, "Nine Heavens Palace Master, thank you for the Space Immortal Stone. We shall take our leave now."
"Farewell." Flame Shadow smiled slightly, then took Gu Chenfeng and disappeared in a flash.
After the two left,
The Nine Heavens Palace Master hurriedly looked at the Grand Elder, excitedly asking, "Grand Elder, how long will it take you to break through to the Eighth-Grade Alchemist realm?"
"I’ve been stuck at the Seventh Grade realm for many years, unable to advance further." The Grand Elder exclaimed with great excitement, "Once I successfully cultivate the Ancient Alchemy Technique, my bottleneck will surely loosen."
"Then, breaking through to the Eighth-Grade Alchemist realm will be easy for me, possibly within a year, or even within half a year!"
"So soon?" The Nine Heavens Palace Master was utterly shocked.
The Grand Elder had been unable to break through from the Seventh Grade to the Eighth Grade for millennia, yet with the Ancient Alchemy Technique, he could accomplish it within just a year.
This terrifying speed was truly unbelievable.
The Grand Elder continued with excitement, "I never imagined, even in my dreams, that I could cultivate the Ancient Alchemy Technique in this life and actually have a chance to break through to the Eighth-Grade Alchemist realm!"
In the entire Immortal Realm, the Eighth-Grade Alchemist realm was already considered the pinnacle of the Pill Realm.
The Second Elder quickly said, "Palace Master, this Young Master Feng is definitely not at the First Grade realm; he took out the Ancient Alchemy Technique without hesitation, let alone the Eighth-Grade pill formula that boosts cultivation."
"An Eighth-Grade elixir that enhances cultivation is a priceless treasure; one can only imagine the value of the Eighth-Grade pill formula."
The Grand Elder nodded, "Even though there’s no obvious soul power fluctuation from him, I still believe he’s not at the First Grade realm; this young man can discern my alchemy realm, which already speaks volumes about his complexity."
"To possess such composure at a young age, his mindset must be extraordinarily high."
"This Young Master Feng is indeed remarkable." The Nine Heavens Palace Master nodded and said, "I cannot discern the depth of his cultivation, nor can I sense any trace of Immortal Power fluctuation, which is not something ordinary people can do."
"We should be grateful that Young Master Feng sincerely came to exchange the Space Immortal Stone; otherwise, with his terrifying power, he could have destroyed us and seized the Space Immortal Stone."
"The Palace Master speaks the truth." The three elders nodded in agreement.
Little did they know, the Young Master Feng they spoke of was none other than Gu Chenfeng of days past.
...
Celestial Shadow Immortal Palace.
Flame Shadow and Gu Chenfeng appeared in a flash above the square in front of the mountain gate.
"Welcome, Young Master!" The Immortal Palace disciples respectfully welcomed them, their voices echoing throughout the Immortal Palace.
Flame Soul and the elders immediately appeared in a flash.
Flame Soul looked at Gu Chenfeng and said with a faint smile, "It seems the Ancient Venerable has successfully obtained the Space Immortal Stone." 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎
"Soul Elder is correct." Gu Chenfeng smiled faintly, "We have successfully acquired the Space Immortal Stone."
Beside him, Flame Shadow asked, "Young Master Feng, now that we have the Space Immortal Stone, what other materials do we require? I will immediately send people out to find them."
"It’s not that simple." Gu Chenfeng smiled faintly, "Years ago, I searched for a long time but still couldn’t gather all the materials; it won’t be possible in the short term."
"That might not be the case." Flame Shadow replied confidently, "Back then, you only sent a few people like Yun Emperor to look; how could there be any news? If I take the initiative, it means the entire Celestial Shadow Immortal Palace and all the forces under it will search together."
"If the Immortal Realm doesn’t have them, we’ll go to the Demon Realm; if the Demon Realm doesn’t have them, we’ll go to the Demon Realm; if the Demon Realm still doesn’t have them, we’ll go to the Buddha Realm. I refuse to believe we can’t find them."
"The Demon Realm or Demon Realm, huh?" Gu Chenfeng was slightly taken aback, then smiled, "That’s true; back then, I didn’t even think of searching other realms."
Flame Soul smiled faintly, "It’s not difficult to search, but going to the Demon Realm will be slightly troublesome."
"The Demon Realm? Young Master Feng doesn’t fear them." Flame Shadow said confidently, "Young Master Feng, quickly tell me what precious materials are needed, so I can make inquiries."
Gu Chenfeng smiled faintly, "There are quite a few valuable materials needed to refine the Spatial Treasure, aside from the most important Space Immortal Stone, we also need the Heaven and Earth Yin Yang Stone, Infinite Golden Crow, Void Spirit Jade, and the Time Reincarnation Essence, as well as some auxiliary materials."
"The auxiliary materials shouldn’t be difficult, and the Time Reincarnation Essence, which I obtained in the Otherworld Space back then, should be easy to find; the others will be more challenging."
"I’ve never even heard of these treasures." Flame Shadow looked bewildered.
"I have only ever heard of the Void Spirit Jade." Flame Soul furrowed his brow and said, "Void Spirit Jade is one of the materials used to refine powerful Immortal Artifacts; it can absorb Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi to aid in cultivation."
"Soul Elder speaks the truth." Gu Chenfeng nodded with a smile, "But it’s only one of the components; Void Spirit Jade is extremely hard, and its primary use is to enhance the space of the Spatial Treasure."
"I see." Flame Soul and the elders nodded in agreement.
Flame Shadow asked again, "By the way, which ones did you find back then?"
Gu Chenfeng shook his head helplessly and said, "Back then, I only found the Void Spirit Jade and the Heaven and Earth Yin Yang Stone, and even those were given to Yun Emperor to keep; now Yun Emperor’s whereabouts are unknown, life and death uncertain, so these materials are as good as gone."
Flame Soul furrowed his brow and said, "Let’s hope Yun Emperor and the others are still alive."
"Let’s hope so." Gu Chenfeng nodded with a smile, "Alright, I should be returning now; if you find the materials, send them to Myriad Ancient Immortal Mansion."
"Alright!" Flame Shadow replied earnestly, "I’ll send people to look right away!"
