The Sword God of the Universe

Chapter 1736: Chapter 1736: Ridiculous

Jing Yan’s impression of the Tu Clan is very good.

Before the Extreme Land opened, when he had a feud with the Dongfang Family, Zhao Ming, the Clan Leader of the Zhao Clan, wanted to take action against him. It was Tu Sen who first stood up to stop Zhao Ming.

Therefore, Jing Yan didn’t mind spending some time chatting with Tu Sen. If Tu Sen wanted him to help do something, Jing Yan wouldn’t refuse.

"Mr. Jing Yan, I have to ask, you probably aren’t a native cultivator of the Floating Domain, right?" Tu Sen finally asked.

The Floating Domain is one of the five regions of the Witch Realm. The Floating Domain is far inferior to the Shamanic Clouds Domain. Tu Sen simply couldn’t accept that a place like the Floating Domain could produce a powerful alchemist like Jing Yan.

"I am indeed not a cultivator from the Floating Domain. As for my origins, it’s really inconvenient to explain to Clan Leader Tu, I hope you understand." Jing Yan nodded and said.

"No problem, no problem."

"Mr. Jing Yan, would you be interested in joining our Tu Clan? If you’re willing to join, we have a spot open for a Supreme Elder. Once you join the Tu Clan, you’ll immediately be a Supreme Elder." Tu Sen, without further probing, turned the conversation to inviting Jing Yan to join the Tu Clan.

Supreme Elder!

Jing Yan knew that within these large clans, the Clan Leader, Supreme Elders, or High Priests are nearly equivalent in status. Even the Clan Leader cannot forcefully command a Supreme Elder. On the contrary, a Supreme Elder can influence the choice of Clan Leader.

One must say, Tu Sen was willing to pay a huge price to recruit Jing Yan, or rather, the Tu Clan was willing to pay a huge price. Allowing an outsider to hold the position of Supreme Elder has never happened in the Tu Clan’s history. Not only the Tu Clan, but also among the other eight Five-star forces, it seems there’s no precedent of an outsider becoming a Supreme Elder.

"Clan Leader Tu, I’m really sorry. I might not stay in the Shamanic Clouds Domain for much longer. Therefore, I cannot join the Tu Clan." Jing Yan said apologetically to Tu Sen.

Tu Sen showed a disappointed expression.

In fact, he had anticipated that Jing Yan might not join the Tu Clan, but hearing Jing Yan say it himself still left him a bit disappointed.

"However, I can help the Tu Clan refine some elixirs. The cost will be quite low." Jing Yan continued.

Helping the Tu Clan refine some elixirs could be considered as repaying Tu Sen’s previous kindness.

"Alright, then I thank Alchemist Jing Yan in advance. I wonder, how long can Alchemist Jing Yan stay in the Shamanic Clouds Domain?" Tu Sen brightened up and asked.

"About a month!" Jing Yan contemplated before saying.

"A month?"

"This..."

A month is certainly too short for Tu Sen and others. They initially thought that even if Jing Yan said he wouldn’t stay in the Shamanic Clouds Domain for too long, he would at least stay for decades or hundreds of years. But Jing Yan said he would only stay for a month.

How many elixirs can be refined in a month?

"Alchemist Jing Yan!"

A person standing next to Tu Sen called out to Jing Yan.

"I am Tu Yang, Alchemist of the Tu Clan." Tu Yang bowed to Jing Yan.

"Alchemist Tu Yang." Jing Yan returned the bow.

"Alchemist Jing Yan, you just said you’d help the Tu Clan refine some elixirs. But then you mentioned you’d only stay for a month. How many elixirs can you refine in a month, Alchemist Jing Yan? Can I assume you’re just appeasing us? I tend to speak frankly; if my words have made you uncomfortable, I apologize." Tu Yang said, his neck held high.

Everyone could hear the discontent in Tu Yang’s tone.

Tu Yang is the alchemist with the strongest skills in the Alchemy Dao in the Tu Clan, and he initially didn’t plan to come to Maoqiong Ridge. It was only after hearing about Jing Yan that he specifically came. He hasn’t had any prejudice against Jing Yan but couldn’t help questioning after hearing Jing Yan would only stay for a month.

"Alchemist Tu Yang, you misunderstood. A month may seem short, but it’s enough for me to refine quite a number of elixirs." Jing Yan said, his eyes slightly narrowed.

"Heh..." Tu Yang laughed, but his laughter was insincere, clearly dissatisfied with Jing Yan’s answer.

Jing Yan said no more.

With a wave of his hand, the Qiankun Pill Furnace appeared, suspended in mid-air.

Immediately, Jing Yan took out a batch of materials, totaling hundreds of kinds of Divine Grass.

This batch of materials was precisely for refining the top-level divine pill, the Dancing Crane Elixir.

"What is he planning to do?"

"This Alchemist Jing Yan took out the pill furnace and Divine Grass, does he intend to refine pills?"

"What kind of joke is this, refining pills in the Extreme Land Square?"

"..."

The surrounding cultivators all had their eyes fixed on Jing Yan, and seeing his actions, they looked perplexed. Jing Yan taking out the pill furnace and Divine Grass seemed like he intended to refine pills. But refining pills publicly in the Extreme Land Square seemed somewhat frivolous.

Tu Sen and others also showed expressions of surprise as they looked at Jing Yan.

"Alchemist Jing Yan, are you planning to refine pills here?" Tu Sen couldn’t help but ask.

"Yes." Jing Yan replied.

"But with so many people around and such chaos, will there be any impact? Isn’t pill refining supposed to take place in a quiet environment?" Tu Sen looked around at the noise.

"It’s no problem." Jing Yan waved dismissively.

There was a strong confidence in Jing Yan that made Tu Sen stop trying to persuade him.

"Hmm, look, the materials he brought out seem to be for refining the Dancing Crane Elixir."

"Could it be that he’s planning to refine the Dancing Crane Elixir here in front of everyone?"

"He’s gone mad! Truly mad!"

...

Amidst such discussions, Jing Yan began channeling divine power into the Qiankun Pill Furnace. Naturally, Source Power Little Black was also integrated within the divine power.

Within a few breaths, Jing Yan began throwing the Divine Grass into the Qiankun Pill Furnace.

To the other cultivators watching, this scene looked like Jing Yan was casually tossing insignificant items. Grabbing a handful of Divine Grass, he casually threw it into the Qiankun Pill Furnace. Everyone doubted whether this Alchemist Jing Yan even looked at the type of Divine Grass he was holding.

His actions were too quick.

In less than the time it takes to brew a tea, all the materials needed for refining a Dancing Crane Elixir were thrown into the Qiankun Pill Furnace.

"Who refines pills like this?"

"That’s ridiculous!"

"Even if he is truly a Holy Alchemist, he can’t refine pills like that. Within the time it takes to brew a tea, he threw all the materials into the pill furnace."

"If he can refine elixirs like this, that would be the real joke!"

"What is he really trying to do?"

In the Extreme Land Square, there were a lot of alchemists present. Particularly during the time Jing Yan was cultivating in the Extreme Land, quite a few capable alchemists from the Shamanic Clouds Domain had rushed over. The deeper one’s study in the Alchemy Dao, the more they found Jing Yan’s pill refinement ridiculous and laughable.
