Top-tier Unruly Master-Chapter 1691 - 1728: Speech
The crowd felt incredibly unbelievable for a moment, hardly imagining that Ding Fan could casually and successfully refine supreme quality medicine pills. Moreover, he refined so many at once, which was simply too unbelievable. However, everyone quickly recalled that Ding Fan, the older brother of Lake Master Long Ren, was indeed the champion of the Great Alchemy Competition in Dancheng. During that time, his results were spectacular; he secured first place in all three assessments, becoming the champion. And throughout the competition, all the pills he refined were supreme quality medicine pills, making him a true legend.
Yet, the matter of Ding Fan’s Great Alchemy Competition in Dancheng was merely forgotten by others for a while. Of course, most cultivators have heard of Ding Fan’s legendary deeds, but they haven’t seen it with their own eyes. Even if seen firsthand, they might not believe it’s real.
After all, it seems that no alchemist in the entire Cultivation World can achieve the level of Ding Fan in refining medicine pills, having a one hundred percent success rate in refining supreme quality medicine pills is simply too unbelievable. Therefore, most cultivators who have heard of Ding Fan’s legendary deeds are skeptical, thinking that Ding Fan just had a huge advantage due to luck during the competition.
Even those cultivators who saw the process of Ding Fan refining supreme quality medicine pills during the Great Alchemy Competition in Dancheng mostly believe that Ding Fan just had a stroke of luck at that time. After all, refining supreme quality medicine pills is extremely difficult, and even Grade Nine alchemists have never claimed to have a one hundred percent guarantee of success.
Yet Ding Fan achieved it so effortlessly, which indeed felt unbelievable and difficult to accept.
At this moment, the elders or sect leaders of the thirty-six caves heard about Ding Fan’s supreme quality medicine pill refining again. How could they not be shocked? These elders or sect leaders knew Ah Du had no reason to lie, and Ding Fan had already shown extraordinary alchemy skills during the previous selection competition, therefore, they believed Ah Du and Lake Master Long Ren’s words were true.
Still, it’s just so unbelievable!
Bear in mind, if Ding Fan refined supreme quality medicine pills with a one hundred percent certainty during the Great Alchemy Competition in Dancheng as a stroke of luck, this time in the Xuantian Secret Realm, his sect’s two disciples survived solely by relying on Ding Fan’s refined pills. How could that be explained as luck?
Once or twice success could be attributed to luck, but can countless successes be explained by luck?
Of course not!
The crowd understood this quite clearly, thus at this moment, they felt exceptionally respectful towards the Lake Master’s elder brother. Knowing that such alchemy skills are not merely what a usual Grade Nine alchemist can achieve; he is surely an outstanding figure among Grade Nine alchemists.
At this point, seeing the crowd’s shocked gazes and astonished discussions directed at him, Ding Fan felt somewhat helpless, yet he could understand this. Ding Fan knew that his alchemy skills indeed exceeded most alchemists in the Cultivation World.
Ding Fan could even say that perhaps in the entire Cultivation World, it would be difficult to find an alchemist whose pill refining skills surpass his own. However, Ding Fan naturally wouldn’t say such a thing; after all, he also knew it’s better to remain humble. Despite that, Ding Fan didn’t emphasize being overly humble regarding the matter.
Ding Fan knew that since his sect, Great Ocean Sect, is still in an essential development stage, for it to have stable progress, it’s necessary to acquaint with powerful sects or individuals. Ding Fan understood that currently, the thirty-six caves are a very good development opportunity.
Moreover, Ding Fan and Long Ren are already considered brothers, but Ding Fan knew that if only Long Ren was willing to support him among the thirty-six caves, it wouldn’t be enough. Hence, aware of his identity as an alchemist—in particular, his unparalleled alchemy skills—the elders or sect leaders of the thirty-six caves would certainly wish to associate with him due to this.
Ding Fan knew clearly, that no one would decline to associate with a Grade Nine alchemist’s presence. Furthermore, the higher cultivation a cultivator achieves, the greater their need for a Grade Nine alchemist. Considering his current exhibited alchemy skill, having a one hundred percent success rate in refining supreme quality medicine pills is highly attractive to any cultivator.
Even cultivators in the Transcendance Tribulation Stage wouldn’t offend such an alchemist, as although everyone in the Cultivation World dreams of obtaining a supreme quality medicine pill, those especially longing for it are those Transcendance Tribulation Stage cultivators.
After all, having refined to their level, ordinary pills no longer have much effect on their cultivation. Only supreme quality medicine pills suit them best, and these cultivators are not only most desirous of obtaining supreme quality medicine pills but also most capable of acquiring them.
Supreme quality medicine pills are immensely valuable; each one is worth a fortune; common cultivators simply can’t afford it, and most cultivators may never even lay eyes on such a pill in their lifetime.
Only those cultivators who have reached the Transcendance Tribulation Stage might have the financial capacity to purchase such supreme quality medicine pills, as their wealth is undeniably substantial. Although supreme quality medicine pills are pricey, they are willing to spend heavily to acquire them.
After all, for cultivators, cultivation is ultimately the most important thing. It’s essential to know that a Supreme Quality Medicine Pill can exponentially increase the success rate of breakthroughs. Who wouldn’t want such a pill? It’s worth even spending a fortune on.
Moreover, all of this effort is solely for the sake of cultivation.
Therefore, Ding Fan knew that the revelation of his identity wasn’t a bad thing for him. After all, it could help him expand his network, which would be beneficial not only to him but also to his sect.
Thus, Ding Fan didn’t show any particular reaction for a moment. Then, Ah Du began discussing the Guardian Yuan Beast of the Sword Washing Pool. At this point, everyone was eagerly anticipating what would happen when they faced the beast. Most elders or sect leaders believed they would eventually bypass it.
Though finding the Sword Washing Pool was an extremely rare occasion, the existence of the Guardian Yuan Beast posed a very lethal threat. No matter how tempting the opportunity seemed, it was not as enticing as their lives.
But when Ah Du finished, saying that in the end, Brother Ding Fan single-handedly slew that Guardian Yuan Beast, everyone was once again thrown into shock. No one had anticipated that Ding Fan could kill the beast alone. Even Ah Du didn’t know the process, so he couldn’t explain much.
Everyone was astounded. They were all Nascent Soul Mid Stage cultivators, and some were even at the Transcendance Tribulation Stage. Even facing a Guardian Yuan Beast that had existed for almost a thousand years would not be easy. Trying to slay it leaves no certain victory for those at the Transcendance Tribulation Stage, yet Ding Fan managed it alone.
This was indeed unbelievable!
At this moment, everyone’s perspective on the Lake Master’s elder brother changed. This elder brother not only seemed unparalleled in Pill Refinement but was also extraordinarily strong. It should be known that even his cultivation appeared to be only at the Nascent Soul Mid Stage, yet he could slay a Guardian Yuan Beast—simply unbelievable!
Evidently, the elders of the Thirty-Six Caves or sect leaders fully understood why the Lake Master, Long Ren, recognized him as a brother, It wasn’t merely politeness but rather due to his extraordinary strength, surpassing ordinary cultivators. Lake Master Long Ren was already deemed a genius among geniuses in the Cultivation World; few youth cultivators could match him, at least none heard of yet on Donglai Continent.
But this Ding Fan was certainly one, and now everyone felt Ding Fan’s prowess might exceed the Lake Master’s. Otherwise, Long Ren wouldn’t call him a brother.
For a moment, everyone fell silent, and the conference hall became exceptionally quiet. Clearly, their minds were deeply shaken, so much they couldn’t utter a word.
Soon, Ah Du finished, and his later statements matched Guo Linn’s. Regarding what was found in the Sword Washing Pool, Ah Du, like Guo Linn, chose not to say a word. They understood how tempting the martial arts within the pool were.
Not mentioning them was natural to avoid attracting attention and keep things relatively hassle-free.
Now, everyone knew Guo Linn, Ah Du, and their elder brother indeed gained many opportunities in the Xuantian Secret Realm. Discovering a Sword Washing Pool alone was rare. As for what they obtained, whether treasures or not, most elders and sect leaders weren’t too curious.
Although nothing was spoken about these things, everyone understood what they obtained naturally wouldn’t be ordinary. Revealing it would bring certain troubles, and since everyone here belonged to the Thirty-Six Caves, their curiosity wouldn’t keep them pondering.
It was just Guo Linn and Ah Du’s comments gave the gathered elders and sect leaders more specific insight into the Xuantian Secret Realm, aiding preparations for when it next opens, a major event for the Thirty-Six Caves often not occurring for years.
No one had entered the Xuantian Secret Realm, or it had been far too long, so understanding its current state was necessary. Thus, listening to these recently emerged disciples recount their experiences inside was essential for the Thirty-Six Caves.
They had to prepare for the next opening of the Xuantian Secret Realm, as this time’s secret realm fluctuations had significantly affected the Thirty-Six Caves. Hence, Long Ren needed everyone to further comprehend the situation inside the Xuantian Secret Realm.
After Ah Du finished speaking, it was Leng Jian’s turn. Everyone was most curious about Leng Jian, who didn’t use the Teleportation Array immediately upon its activation and emerged with serious injuries. Everyone wondered what he’d encountered and what happened...
