The plaza in front of the Alchemist Guild in the capital of Gama was densely packed with people, leaving only a large open space a hundred meters around it.
Above the plaza, only a young figure, revealing wings of battle aura, hovered slowly. His appearance caused the already excited crowd to erupt in a frenzy.
"Lord Lin Feng, I want to have your babies, a hundred of them!"
A sexy and sassy woman suddenly roared, startling everyone around. Upon seeing her face, they quickly scattered.
"Lord Lin Feng, look here! My bosom will surely envelop you completely. After Lord Lin Feng finishes refining pills tonight, come to my boudoir to rest!"
A flamboyantly dressed, voluptuous young woman, disregarding her usual reserve, shouted loudly. With each movement, her already impressive breasts heaved, a sight that made the surrounding crowd swallow hard.
"Lord Lin Feng, I love you!"
"Lord Lin Feng...
"
With Lin Feng's appearance, the scene instantly spiraled out of control. On the square, many beautiful noblewomen from the capital couldn't contain themselves. Their husbands, however, didn't intervene, as they too were wildly infatuated with Lin Feng.
"Lord Lin Feng, look here!"
Suddenly, a loud roar startled everyone. The husbands of the noblewomen had united, forming a support group.
Suddenly, a huge banner appeared, its contents shocking everyone on the square:
"Lord Lin Feng, please take care of us! The Steel Wool Story!"
*Bang!*
Seeing this, Lin Feng's brows twitched uncontrollably. Unable to contain himself any longer, he waved his hand, burning the banner to ashes with a single stroke. Of course, thanks to his precise control, the people around the banner remained completely unharmed.
The crowd, however, was captivated by Lin Feng's powerful fire control technique, their shouts deafening, filled with phrases like "I love you, noblewoman" and "steel wool."
"Everyone, please be quiet. Master Lin Feng will now refine a top-grade sixth-rank pill—the Breakthrough Pill!"
Seeing the scene becoming increasingly chaotic, Fa Ma, who had been suppressing his laughter while watching the spectacle, had to step in to defuse the situation.
"Furthermore, Master Lin Feng promises that upon completion of the pill, he will randomly select three lucky audience members, each receiving a fifth-rank pill. Of course," Fa Ma's expression immediately turned serious, "you are not allowed to steal the pills bestowed by Master Lin Feng!"
Hearing Fa Ma's words, the crowd erupted again, discussing who would be the lucky winner.
"In that case, let's begin!"
Seeing that the crowd, though their eyes burned with excitement, remained silent, Lin Feng nodded slightly and gestured to Fa Ma. He slowly walked to the center of the open space in the square, and with a swipe of his hand on his storage ring, a huge six-mouthed medicine cauldron appeared instantly.
With a sudden "thud,"
a massive medicine cauldron appeared and crashed onto the plaza, creating a deafening sound that gripped the hearts of everyone present. "Is it...beginning?!"
"Bang!"
After the cauldron appeared, Lin Feng slowly extended his right hand, and a bluish-green flame emerged—the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame. Now that he had reached the Dou Zong level, there was no need for him to conceal the fact that he possessed such a rare and wondrous flame.
The moment the flame appeared, everyone felt an exceptionally intense heat, far exceeding that of ordinary beast fire.
On the plaza, many knowledgeable passersby were already explaining the origin of this powerful flame to the surrounding crowd. Unsurprisingly, another wave of gasps erupted from the crowd. Even the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame in Lin Feng's palm was slightly affected, swaying for a moment.
Upon witnessing this scene, Lin Feng's mind raced. "Could it be that the Dou Qi Continent is actually a system of supernatural tales based on rules?"
Among the crowd in the plaza, a mysterious figure clad in a black cloak, completely concealed, noticed the strange fire in Lin Feng's palm and his aura fluctuated slightly. Fortunately, knowing the presence of many powerful figures and numerous eyes and ears, he quickly calmed himself, avoiding attracting attention.
"The Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame, just as Teacher predicted, has been taken by Master Lin Feng!"
A faint light flashed on an ancient ring hidden within the mysterious figure's cloak, seemingly in response to his thoughts.
Lin Feng, however, paid no heed to the crowd's opinions. After the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame appeared, he placed it into his medicine cauldron and began to nurture it. Simultaneously, he reached into his storage ring again, and over thirty medicinal herbs appeared.
The alchemists who witnessed this scene widened their eyes, and some of the more astute ones even took out their recording artifacts, preparing to record Lin Feng's entire pill-refining process. Lin Feng didn't stop them; having chosen to refine pills in a public place and allow others to observe, he naturally expected this.
"This can be considered a return on the Alchemist Guild's investment in me back then!"
Thinking this, Lin Feng consciously slowed his movements, not out of fear of failure. It had been a year since he had advanced to the peak of the sixth-grade alchemist, and with his talent, although he spent most of his time cultivating and only a short time studying alchemy,
he had already increased the success rate of his Breakthrough Pill to a level unimaginable to ordinary alchemists. This was simply to make it easier for the other alchemists to see clearly and record in more detail.
The mysterious person hidden in the crowd was also watching intently, even though he had a powerful teacher. However, due to various limitations, the highest-level pill refining he had ever witnessed was only fifth-grade.
Now, a sixth-grade alchemy master was refining a peak sixth-grade pill right before his eyes—such an opportunity was rare. Moreover, a question lingered in his mind: "Strange, why does Master Lin Feng's refining technique look vaguely familiar?"
Lin Feng, after the cauldron had reached a critical point of warming, waved his hand, and all thirty-odd medicinal herbs were thrown into the cauldron.
"What is this?"
Many alchemists who witnessed this scene couldn't help but feel a jolt in their hearts. Indeed, he was worthy of being called Master Lin Feng! Even when refining such a high-level pill, his refining technique was so wild.
Some even took out their notebooks and wrote, "Master's personal instruction: To become a top-level alchemist, the refining technique must be wild!"
