Chapter 1835 - 1818: The Down-and-Out Alchemist

Xiao Ye turned around, his deep eyes fixed on the yellow-robed youth.

The Extreme Spirit Pill is a treasure that can only be refined using Cosmic Spiritual Treasures from the Holy World, making it unique to the Holy World.

And this yellow-robed youth can tell with just one glance that I’ve taken the Extreme Spirit Pill?

"No need to doubt, my name is Yi Tianzhou, and I am an alchemist in the Holy World," the yellow-robed youth said with a bitter smile.

"You’re also an alchemist?" Xiao Ye’s mouth twitched upon hearing this.

One could tell from Lin Ze the high status of alchemists in the Holy World, capable of earning the support of strong Heavenly Spirit Realm warriors.

In comparison, this yellow-robed youth seemed to be faring rather miserably.

"My identity is somewhat special."

Noticeable doubt in Xiao Ye’s eyes, Yi Tianzhou explained, "However, I am indeed an alchemist, like the Extreme Spirit Pill you’ve taken. Alchemists from the Third Layer Heaven find it difficult, but I can refine it."

"There are even more powerful spiritual-grade pills that I’m confident I can produce. Since you’re cultivating the Taichu Ancient Scripture, you’ll surely need plenty of treasures to advance your realm."

"If you’re willing to shelter me in the Third Layer Heaven, I’ll be happy to refine spiritual-grade pills for you."

Yi Tianzhou stared at Xiao Ye with hints of desperation.

"If you truly are an alchemist, I can shield you," Xiao Ye didn’t hesitate and spoke decisively.

He was pondering how to acquire the Extreme Spirit Pill, and it so happened an alchemist came knocking; why not seize the opportunity?

Given his continually increasing strength, those who could pose a threat to him in the Third Layer Heaven were indeed few.

Except this yellow-robed youth seemed quite bold.

Whoosh!

Xiao Ye waved his palm, taking Yi Tianzhou to a secluded forest, where they finally halted.

"I happen to have a few Cosmic Spiritual Treasures for refining the Extreme Spirit Pill, go ahead and refine them," Xiao Ye took out the Space Ring gifted by Zhou Ke, selected one piece and handed it to Yi Tianzhou.

"Good!"

Knowing Xiao Ye was testing him, Yi Tianzhou wasted no time. He brushed over his Space Ring, and a massive Dan Furnace along with numerous alchemy tools emerged.

Buzz!

As Yi Tianzhou’s hand touched the Dan Furnace, his expression became solemn, and he appeared refreshed, his every move exuding boundless charisma, a stark contrast to his previous timidity and fear.

Opening the Dan Furnace, Yi Tianzhou continuously placed Cosmic Spiritual Treasures for refining the Extreme Spirit Pill into it and started to increase the fire for refining.

He moved fluidly, without any pause or thinking.

In just a moment, a rich fragrance permeated the air, while a hazy glow arose from within the Dan Furnace.

Half a day passed.

"It’s done!"

Yi Tianzhou clapped the Dan Furnace, and a pill shot skyward, caught instantly by Xiao Ye.

"This really is the Extreme Spirit Pill!"

Examining the pill in his hand, Xiao Ye found its energy powerful, its aroma pervasive—its quality was even better than the ones he received from Li Wufa, rendering him astonished.

Despite not having witnessed other alchemists producing pills, he could confirm they were no match for Yi Tianzhou.

The most crucial aspect!

Pill formation rate!

Generally, alchemists successfully crafting pills isn’t guaranteed; the more potent the pill, the lower the success rate.

Like the Extreme Spirit Pill, it’s highly sought after even by those on the Realm Spirit List.

While Yi Tianzhou managed to successfully refine the Extreme Spirit Pill in such a short time with just one Cosmic Spiritual Treasure given to him.

Remember, Yi Tianzhou was injured, and only at the Earth Spirit Realm, isn’t that terrifying?

"Seems I’ve struck gold this time."

Xiao Ye suppressed his excitement, "I have three more pieces of refinable Cosmic Spiritual Treasure; it would be a waste not to use them."

After settling Yi Tianzhou, treating his injuries, Xiao Ye hurried to an uninhabited place and brought out the remaining three Cosmic Spiritual Treasures for refining the Extreme Spirit Pill.

"The value of these Cosmic Spiritual Treasures is about equivalent to White Light Stone Milk, which should withstand the Time Tower’s Third Layer capabilities!"

Xiao Ye’s eyes flared with fierce brilliance.

Using the Time Tower’s Third Layer to catalyze White Light Stone Milk into Colorless Stone Milk means it could also enhance these Cosmic Spiritual Treasures, boosting effects.

Eventually, letting Yi Tianzhou refine with them would undoubtedly produce stronger treasures.

With this in mind, Xiao Ye drew blood from the Heavenly Spirit Realm Ferocious Beast to illuminate the Time Tower’s Third Layer, deploying powers upon the Cosmic Spiritual Treasures before him.

Buzz buzz buzz!

Suddenly, the Cosmic Spiritual Treasures before him began to shake, countless temporal flows appeared, rapidly shifting.

Catalyzing numerous Cosmic Spiritual Treasures simultaneously made time seem incredibly prolonged, with a significant depletion of the Heavenly Spirit Realm Exotic Beast’s blood.

The process didn’t finish until three hours later.

"Succeeded!"

Seeing the Cosmic Spiritual Treasures before him with their now-intensified properties and altered forms, Xiao Ye collected them excitedly and returned to Yi Tianzhou.

"Super Star Fruit, Zhu Fenghua, Tuo Luo Spirit Fire..."

"Xiao Ye, these Cosmic Spiritual Treasures can’t possibly be produced in the Third Layer Heaven; how did you find them?"

Currently recovering from injuries, Yi Tianzhou trembled upon seeing the treasures Xiao Ye presented, his face filled with disbelief.

"Simply tell me, can these treasures refine pills stronger than the Extreme Spirit Pill?" Xiao Ye asked.

"Naturally."

"I have a ninety percent certainty of refining the Extreme Spirit Pill’s ultimate form—Faceless Spirit Pill. Upon refining, Second Layer Heaven’s denizens will surely go mad," Yi Tianzhou nodded.

As an alchemist, he hungered for potent Cosmic Spiritual Treasures.

Refining terrifying pills brings considerable benefits to them, not to mention, the stronger Xiao Ye becomes, the better he could shield him.

Xiao Ye laughed heartily.

Breaking through to the Middle Stage of Heavenly Spirit Realm seems imminent!

Next, Yi Tianzhou prepared for alchemy while Xiao Ye stayed nearby in meditation, guarding him.

This time, refining the Faceless Spirit Pill proved much more challenging, with Yi Tianzhou cautious.

Just then, news of Xiao Ye’s actions in the Third Layer Heaven spread like a storm.

Many formidable beings originally secluded for cultivation in the Third Layer Heaven were alarmed, with an atmosphere of brewing tension.

"Useless trash!"

Yi Tianzhou was rescued by Xiao Ye; wasn’t he a Lord in the Second Layer Heaven, the one who named the capture target?"

"Perfect, surely many in the Third Layer Heaven are quite intrigued by this kid."

In an undisclosed location within the vast Holy World’s Third Layer Heaven, an angry low roar echoed, monstrous power raging like crashing waves against the Heavenly Dome.
