Fan Tong’s fast hands created a blur that instantly consumed the rising elixirs. As each left his touch, it left a fleeting shadow before disappearing completely.

All who were eager to see the finished piece were greeted with nothing but disappointment, as they couldn’t see anything due to his staggering speed.

After hearing the words of Master Ma, everyone became even more curious. They wished they could expose Fan Tong’s elixirs right now, to see if they were Yuanhua Dan and whether they bore any signs of a Dan pattern.

It was outrageous. It was considered a rare talent to produce three to five elixirs in each alchemy session, it made everyone feel jealous. Then, there was Yang Zhen who produced an entire pot!

Fan Tong had been busy for so long, his face was strained and dripping with sweat by the time he completed the last Yuanhua Dan and put it into the Dan bottle. During this time, Fan Tong’s apprentice brought Dan bottles back from the room five times.

A total of a hundred elixirs. Discounting the one eaten by the contemptible cat, he managed to carefully place ninety-nine elixirs into the Dan bottle.

Fan Tong frowned when he heard Master Ma’s words. He looked at him for a while and sighed deeply, saying,

“Brother Ma, there’s nothing wrong with fighting for one’s dignity in life, but you have to know when to give up. In all these years, what obsession could you possibly have? Today, you have let me down. Given your present state of mind, I’m afraid you won’t achieve any further progress in the art of alchemy!”

At these words, the expressions of everyone present drastically changed. Looking at Fan Tong with astonishment, none had expected Fan Tong to say such harsh words to Master Ma.

Stating that Master Ma could not make any further advancements in alchemy, didn’t that mean that Master Ma would be trapped at his current realm for the rest of his life? This was perhaps the cruellest judgment for an alchemist.

The colour drained from Master Ma’s face. He swiftly shook his head, tossing his silver hair. Looking enraged yet deeply hurt, he said to Fan Tong, “No progress? I have a narrow mind and great obsessions? What about that hateful Yang Zhen then? Didn’t you hear what he said earlier? He almost pushed me to my death. I refuse to believe that someone so young could have produced so many Yuanhua Dan! I don’t accept that Yuanhua Dan could have a Dan pattern on it!”

Master Ma pointed to Yang Zhen’s pressure cooker and roared, “I have checked this furnace earlier, it can not even be called a furnace at all. What does this mean? You’re saying pills can be produced from this? Then, what have I been doing all my life?”

Master Ma seemed to be losing his mind, his life’s pursuit had been strongly undermined. Yang Zhen’s alchemy method threatened to overturn everything he knew. How could he accept this?

Fan Tong shook his head and sighed, a look of pity washed over him at the sight of Master Ma. He didn’t need to look any further at the elixirs. Given the current state of Master Ma who was tormented by his inner demon, he would live a miserable life moving forward, unless … unless Yang Zhen died!

“Why are you sighing?” Master Ma pointed at Fan Tong and said, “I see, you’re all together, plotting to set me up, aren’t you?”

Fan Tong’s expression remained unchanged, he looked coldly at Master Ma, his expression filled with a mix of contempt and disappointment.

The contemptible cat, having failed to grab any elixir, begrudgingly came to Yang Zhen’s side. It looked at Master Ma with interest and said, “This old man has evolved his inner demon into an obsession, you better be careful. He might bite you.”

“What the hell!” Yang Zhen jumped in surprise, his face filled with bewilderment as he asked the cat, “Bite people? Like with his mouth?”

The cat sneered, a disdainful look on its face, “Besides his mouth, what else on his body could possibly bite people?”

Damn it, obsession is indeed terrifying!

Yang Zhen took a step back, afraid. He didn’t want to risk being bitten by Master Ma in a fit of rage. He wasn’t sure if there would be a vaccine available in this world to protect against it.

As Master Ma became increasingly desperate, Fan Tong snorted, casually picked up a bottle from the table, tossing it as he said,”You wanted to see, right? Have a look. It’s for your own good, yet you treat me as the villain. This is outrageous!”

A treacherous and fanatic look flashed in Master Ma’s eyes as he swiftly opened the Dan bottle, only to be struck dumb.

In his hand, a dark green elixir glittered, emitting a soft glow like a mesmerizing pearl under the night sky, only the radiance was slightly dimmer.

With just one look, everyone could tell that this elixir was many times more precious than the Yuanhua Dan Master Ma previously displayed.

What startled the crowd to the point of gasping with astonishment was that the Primordial Hua Dan held in the hands of Master Ma emitted lines of mysterious and masterfully crafted patterns. These patterns, brimming with righteousness and dazzlingly beautiful, added a spark of vitality to the pill, bringing it to life.

What’s more, each line on the pill was like a little dragon coiling around it, full of life and charm.

“Dao lines!” Medicine Elder exclaimed, his eyes widening in excitement as he declared, “There really are Dao lines, good boy, you’re incredibly skilled.”

Hua Youyue nodded slightly, her smile brightening as she stole a glance at Yang Zhen and finally relaxed.

“One, two, three…six, seven. My heavens, it’s a Seven-Dragon Primordial Hua Dan. This… this is the creme de la creme. How on earth did Yang Zhen pull this off?”

“Yang Zhen said earlier that the Seven-Dragon Primordial Hua Dan is the most precious. This…even a random one has seven dragon lines, then…what about the others?”

As if he heard this, Master Ma rushed towards Fan Tong. He rummaged on the table for a long time before casually picking up another bottle.

“Ssss, it also has seven dragon lines. This…this is simply dreamlike!”

Master Ma roared in fury, grinding his teeth, “No, it can’t be!”

He switched to another bottle.

“Oh my God, seven dragon lines again. Just what sort of monster is Yang Zhen?”

The crowd murmured in astonishment, their shock unparalleled. Fan Tong merely watched Master Ma with a cold smile, not stopping him from his actions.

One bottle, two bottles, ten bottles…

They all had seven dragon lines!

By the time Master Ma had checked the nineteenth bottle, everyone was already numb. However, despite the numbness, no one blinked. This was a miracle, and no one wanted to miss any detail of this miracle.

Master Ma picked up the twentieth bottle, his dry tongue swallowing hard. He trembled as he opened the lid, pouring out a crystal-clear, dark green pill.

“Impossible…”

Among the shouts of surprise from everyone, Master Ma staggered back two steps, mumbling to himself. Suddenly, blood sprayed from his mouth, scaring the crowd.

Whoosh!

Fan Tong moved swiftly, waving his hand and creating a terrifying surge of energy that formed a barrier in front of everyone, blocking the blood spewed out by Master Ma.

“Damn it, don’t dirty so many good pills!”

“You…” Master Ma looked dazed and furious, pointing at Fan Tong. However, in the end, he could only sigh. Staring at Yang Zhen with a gloomy expression, he silently turned around and began to walk away.

Everyone was shocked by this sight. Master Ma’s abrupt departure was tantamount to admitting defeat in the pill debate.

Everyone’s eyes fell on Yang Zhen. Today’s Yang Zhen was undoubtedly the most eye-catching person in the Fan family. He just stood there quietly, his expression calm.

Just as everyone was exclaiming, Yang Zhen’s calm voice sounded once more: “Stop right there!”

Master Ma trembled, turning abruptly towards Yang Zhen, his eyes blood-red: “What else do you want?”
