The Battle Through Heaven

The Battle Through Heaven
The Heavenly Caldron Rank


"Breaking Adversity Pill", three pale black words were inscribed on an ancient skin parchment that vaguely gave off the scent of old age. Xiao Yan's gaze slowly swept over the skin parchment with a smile in his eyes, As his gaze swept over the effect of the medicinal pill recorded on the skin parchment, the smile on his face grew denser.


"The pill is level six. It has the unique ability to be able to destroy most seals. After using it, it can also form a resistance against certain seals within the body. In the future, if one were to meet with such a seal again, he would get a chance to undo the seal. "


"Ck ck, this is really a pretty good thing ..." Xiao Yan's eyes swept up and down on the ancient skin parchment and could not help but click his tongue. He did not expect that this thing could not only unseal, but also cause the human body that was exposed to the seal, to have an increased resistance to the seal in the future. Just by this special point, it fulfilled its reputation as a tier six medicinal pill.


"It's naturally pretty good. Back then, in order to obtain this medicinal formula, I paid a price that still caused my heart to ache when I remembered what I was doing … "Hai Bo Dong smiled bitterly as he excitedly looked at Xiao Yan.


"Haha, regardless of how much it costs, it's not worth mentioning compared to allowing you to recover your Dou Huang strength." Xiao Yan was comforted. Immediately, he unceremoniously stored this ancient medicinal formula into his storage ring in front of Hai Bo Dong's face.


In the alchemist world, there were unofficial rules. Anyone who wanted an alchemist to help them refine a medicinal pill using a special formula would not only have to prepare the medicinal formula themselves, but would also have to prepare medicinal ingredients. Moreover, this medicinal formula had to be dealt with as the alchemist pleased including the possibility that the alchemist possessed the formula; the actions of these alchemists were also a common occurrence.


In the alchemist world, the creation of medicinal formulas was not a simple matter. There is nothing like taking a pen and recording a recipe as imagined. During the process of making the medicinal formula, the alchemist had to use his own Spiritual Strength as ink and then use the pen to draw with Spiritual Strength in order to successfully create a quality medicinal formula …


While using the medicinal formula, the alchemist needed to use his Spiritual Strength and infiltrate the medicinal formula to obtain the important refining data hidden within the medicinal formula. For example, the amount of medicinal ingredients needed, the temperature of the flame, etc...These things are things that alchemists should pay attention to when refining medicinal pills. Regardless of how extraordinary the refining ability of an alchemist was, if he did not have all of this information, he would need quite a lot of tests before it was possible to successfully refine a medicinal pill recorded in the medicinal formula. However during the trial process, he would probably destroy many rare medicinal ingredients, which would be a huge loss.


Thus, Hai Bo Dong was unable to reproduce the medicinal formula despite having obtained it long enough. When he saw Xiao Yan's actions, the corner of his mouth twitched involuntarily. A moment later, he could only shake his head desperately and let Xiao Yan snatch this hard-earned item for free.


After storing the formula of the ‘Breaking Adversity Pill’ with a smile, Xiao Yan directed his gaze to the large pile of medicinal ingredients that were on the table. These medicinal ingredients could all be considered rare items. Some of them could obtain at least five hundred thousand gold coins if placed in the auction block. Although the price was very high, these items were still rarely seen. After all, as long as it was someone who knew a little about his items, he would not take this rare herb for auction. This was because one day he would probably meet an alchemist who needed this type of rare medicinal ingredient. If that was the case, he might be able to obtain an exchange that he would be very satisfied with.


Perhaps it was because he was afraid of failing, but most of the medicinal ingredients that Hai Bo Dong prepared, had two to three servings. They filled the table in front of the two.


Xiao Yan examined all the different medicinal ingredients once in great detail. When he did not find anything missing, he nodded his head. He then picked it up, looked at Hai Bo Dong who was watching him closely and said, "Old Master, I think you should know that there is a possibility of failing while refining the medicinal pill. Before I refine the medicine, I will say something unpleasant to listen to, I have confidence in refining a tier six medicinal pill but I dare not guarantee it. Therefore, if for some reason this results in failure, this responsibility "


"I know, you wouldn't be responsible You alchemists are all like that. Don't tell me that I can hold you forcibly here if you fail? " Hearing those words, Hai Bo Dong waved his hand and smiled bitterly.


"Haha, since Old Master can understand, it's best I wonder if you can prepare a quiet room for me? During the time before I came out, you couldn't let anyone bother me, including yourself, Old Man. " Xiao Yan stored all the ingredients into his storage ring and said with a smile.


"Follow me." Hai Bo Dong nodded and headed for the side door. Xiao Yan followed behind him.


After entering the side door, a rather dark corridor appeared. Xiao Yan followed behind Hai Bo Dong for some distance before stopping outside the door along the corridor.


The door was pushed open and a dim light glowed. The interior of the room looked very clean, probably because it was cleaned often. It was a great place to stay while refining medicine.


Xiao Yan entered the room, glanced in all directions and nodded his head with a smile.


"Sir, is this place okay?" Hai Bo Dong asked with a smile. When he saw Xiao Yan nod, he continued, "Since it's okay, then please refine the medicinal pill here. I'll keep the corridor outside. During this period, you will get the calm atmosphere you need. No one will bother you. "


"Good." Xiao Yan, smilingly nodded his head. He looked at Hai Bo Dong as he left and gently locked the room door with both hands. He turned around and watched the room. Instead of rushing to get started immediately, he slowly crossed his steps and walked around the entire room. Every little corner was thoroughly inspected by him. Moments later, he finished his examination and walked to the side of the table in the middle of the room. His finger tapped on the storage ring and quietly asked in his heart, "Teacher, is there something wrong here?"


Hearing this, Xiao Yan nodded his head and replied with a grin, "Since it's been like this, Master, it's time to do so ..." As he spoke to Yao Lao, it's time to do so, xiao Yan's finger gently rubbed his storage ring. Immediately, a pile of medicinal ingredients from before filled the table in front of him.


"Ugh .. I know you'll call my old bones to do the hard work." The ring trembled slightly and Yao Lao slowly floated out .. He observed the many materials on the table and shook his head helplessly.


"Hehe, I want to do it myself but this is a tier six medicinal pill. Although I currently have ‘Api Heavenly’, it is still impossible for me to fix it. Xiao Yan waved his hand and smiled innocently.


With regards to Xiao Yan's words, Yao Lao simply rolled his eyes and wailed. He then descended to the side of the table and carelessly rearranged the medicinal ingredients on it. After which, he waved his palm to Xiao Yan. Instantly, the black-coloured ancient ring on Xiao Yan's finger landed on Yao Lao's hand.


After Yao Lao carefully placed the black-colored ring in his hand, he flicked his finger. A pitch-black medicinal cauldron the size of a table surface suddenly appeared.


The black-colored medicinal cauldron had a sturdy body. His entire body was enveloped by a calm atmosphere. Images of life like flames were drawn on the surface of the medicinal cauldron. This image of fire even seemed physically real. Xiao Yan could even faintly feel fire energy start to revolve around the medicinal cauldron.


What a nice cauldron!


Xiao Yan's eyes stared at the black-colored medicinal cauldron with an unusually imposing aura and could not help but praise. The cauldron he used was undoubtedly shabby compared to Yao Lao's. Moreover, this black-colored medicinal cauldron clearly did not only have a beautiful appearance. From the fire energy that clumped around him automatically, it was clear that it was very helpful for the purification of medicine.


"Medicine cauldrons were the most important thing an alchemist possessed. A good medicinal cauldron would be able to increase the chances of successfully refining a large amount of pills .. This cauldron of my medicine has a very domineering name. Others called it ‘Devil Black’ Ke Ke, back then, I paid dearly to get it. " Watching the black-colored cauldron hanging in the air, Yao Lao sighed with a somewhat emotional smile.


"’Black’ Devil? It completely dominated "Xiao Yan clicked his tongue as he praised and shook his head. As he did not interact much with the alchemist world, he naturally did not know what kind of fanatical interest this name had towards an alchemist.


Just like the ‘Heavenly Fire Rating’, in the alchemist world, there was also a similar ‘Call Heavenly’ Rank. As the name suggests, ‘Cauldron Ranking’ records the most perfect and outstanding medicinal cauldron. There are a total of thirteen cauldrons in ‘Cauldron’ Rankings. Each of the medicinal cauldrons on it had magic that caused many alchemists to chase after it with greed. Ranked eighth in ‘Cauldron Ranking’ called, ‘Black Demon’ …


Seeing Xiao Yan's slightly surprised demeanor, Yao Lao simply smiled. However, he did not open his mouth to explain the origin of the black cauldron in front of him. His palm trembled slightly and a thick white-colored flame quickly enveloped his palm. Yao Lao slowly placed his palm onto the diamond-shaped fire pit on top of the black cauldron. He gently flicked his finger and a thick white flame enveloped the inside of the cauldron.


"Hehe, it seems like the teacher attaches great importance to the refinement of this medicine. Otherwise, he would not have taken out his medicinal cauldron. " Xiao Yan said with a smile as he looked at the surging flame within the black cauldron. When Yao Lao had refined medicinal pills in the past, he would instantly refine them in his palm.


"The probability of failure of a tier six medicinal pill was quite high. Moreover, I am currently only in a spirit state and my strength is weaker than in the past. I naturally need the help of a medicinal cauldron to refine this type of medicinal pill. " Said Yao Lao softly. His palm swiftly waved on the table and many medicinal ingredients were taken away by his hand. After which, he threw everything into the medicinal cauldron at once.


Yao Lao's face was expressionless as his palm left the medicinal cauldron. His dried palm suddenly waved swiftly as if it was piercing through a flower and picking leaves. Following the flick of his finger, the thick white flame that was hot inside the black cauldron had, with extreme obedience, turned into ten more small flames, enveloping the medicinal ingredients that had been inserted.


Observing Yao Lao's extremely delicate actions, Xiao Yan's face was filled with envy. When could he reach the stage where he could do difficult things so easily?


Xiao Yan sighed emotionally as he quietly sat on the chair at the side. He carefully observed Yao Lao's purification. When one reached the stage Yao Lao was in, almost any small movement could make Xiao Yan suddenly feel enlightened.


In the silent secret room, thick white flames danced dazzlingly. A faint medicinal fragrance permeated the air inside Please visit
