Chapter 777: Chapter 777: Mountains and Rivers as the Furnace, Yin and Yang as the Flame (Second Update)
The day had arrived.
Countless pill masters who heard the news had rushed over early on.
In the sky above, numerous flying boats and carriages flew in, belonging to people from noble families and sects of all regions in the Guiyi domains.
The entire Wandan City was filled with a gathering of powerful figures, an event of unprecedented scale.
Everyone wanted to see just who it was that dared to challenge the feat of becoming a Heavenly Rank alchemist, a path that countless individuals over the centuries had proved to be a dead end.
When the Quenching Elixir Ancestor appeared before the Elixir Tower with his disciples,
many alchemists, as well as members of the noble families and sects who hurried over, rose to their feet and paid their respects to him.
After all, the Quenching Elixir Ancestor had long been famous, and his formidable alchemical skills had made him a target for countless noble families and sects to court and woo.
So, such a scenario was not surprising.
However, the Quenching Elixir Ancestor today seemed to be in no mood to greet these people.
He simply nodded faintly to the crowd, his face as still as water, then walked up to a high platform, took a seat on a chair, and waited quietly.
The atmosphere began to grow somewhat oppressive.
Even those who were whispering quietly couldn’t help but lower their voices.
Time ticked by, second by second.
The sun was moving towards its zenith, and yet, Xue An still hadn’t appeared.
Many people couldn’t help but start whispering among themselves.
“This Xue An probably doesn’t have the guts to show up!”
“I think so too. I heard that this Xue An comes from the Eastern Domain, a pill master who emerged from some backwater place. What sort of experience could he possibly have? Even though he has some talent and became an Earth-Rank Elixir Master, I bet he has no idea how difficult it is to become a Heavenly Rank alchemist. That’s probably why he was bold enough to make such a brash claim in public. Once he found out more, I bet he chickened out!”
This person’s analysis was logical, causing many to nod in agreement internally.
Lü Baiyue was naturally among the crowd, but she had remained silent all along, simply watching the direction of the Judan Palace quietly.
The events of the past few days had been a tremendous shock to her.
They even made her hesitant to make any quick judgments about Xue An.
Because she always felt that with this man, miracles were always possible.
Another half hour passed.
Xue An still hadn’t appeared.
The restlessness in the crowd grew even more intense.
The murmurs began to get louder.
“Tsk, I always said this guy must be an impostor who deceives the world. Maybe even his status as an Earth-Rank Elixir Master is exaggerated, let alone that of a Heavenly Rank alchemist. That man has probably already run away by now!” said a disciple of the Quenching Elixir Ancestor who naturally spoke in support of his master.
However, many were now showing dubious expressions, not understanding why Xue An hadn’t shown up yet.
Just when everyone had become increasingly anxious and restless,
suddenly,
a radiance zipped across the sky and in an instant landed before them. If not Xue An, who else could it be?
At that moment, Xue An was dressed in ordinary clothes, his tall and upright stature exuding a proud and lofty air, as if he was an Immortal descending from above.
Setting aside everything else, just his presence alone sufficed to quiet down the crowd, who had just been buzzing with noise.
And Xue An’s next remark made everyone burst into a mix of laughter and disbelief,
“Sorry for being late, I was feeding my two daughters breakfast, and it took longer than expected!”
Many thought Xue An was joking.
But Xue An was serious.
In these past three days, Xue An, leading An Yan and his two daughters, had thoroughly enjoyed themselves in Wandan City.
And this morning, the two daughters had stayed in bed late due to playing too hard the night before, and then insisted that Xue An serve them breakfast.
After much dilly-dallying, Xue An ended up being a little late.
If anyone knew the truth of the matter, they’d probably all be dumbfounded.
Such a major event, yet it still isn’t as important as feeding your two daughters?
But for Xue An, it truly was so.
Even if the sky were to fall, he would first need to placate his two daughters before anything else.
At this moment, the Quenching Elixir Ancestor snorted coldly, his voice laced with a threatening sneer, “Xue An, you’ve made such a big scene, with so many people gathered here. Are they all here to listen to your idle chatter? As a Heavenly Rank Alchemist, how do you plan to prove yourself? Could it be you’re preparing to kneel down and pray for a gift from the heavens?”
This remark provoked a round of snickers from the crowd.
Of course, the Quenching Elixir Ancestor wasn’t in a good mood.
You should know that he was previously the only Earth-Rank Elixir Master in the Elixir Dao Association, and it was for this reason that his status was so exceptional.
But then Xue An came out of nowhere and also became an Earth-Rank Elixir Master.
This posed a great threat to his standing.
That’s why he was trying every means to shatter Xue An’s confidence.
Xue An, of course, understood the intentions of the Quenching Elixir Ancestor, but he just laughed it off indifferently.
Because to a true powerhouse, these petty tricks were simply unworthy of notice.
Xue An looked up at the sky, then with one step, he moved into the void.
This effortless traverse through empty space without a hint of mundanity elicited soft exclamations of surprise from many cultivators.
With just this display, it was clear that this man was none other than the ordinary.
High above, Xue An looked down upon Wandan City nestled in the mountains like a pill furnace, a faint smile playing at the corners of his mouth.
“Quenching Elixir, have you not repeatedly claimed that the last Heavenly-ranked Elixir Furnace vanished along with the Elixir King over a thousand years ago? Today, I will let all of you see just where this Pill Furnace truly lies!”
Having said that, Xue An gestured with one hand, his eyes blazing with divine light, and then he cried out softly.
“Rise!”
Boom!
The entirety of Wandan City began to shake violently.
Numerous cracks appeared on the surface of the mountain.
“What’s going on?” The Quenching Elixir Ancestor could no longer sit still, suddenly standing up, his face full of horror as he watched the scene unfold.
Simultaneously, from those cracks burst countless surges of potent elixir qi.
The strength of the elixir qi filled the void, conjuring all sorts of phantasms.
All the Pill Masters were dumbstruck.
It was then that the mountain began to crumble and collapse, revealing a huge pit ten li in diameter.
Suddenly.
From within this abyss, a radiance impossibly brilliant shot towards the heavens, as if trying to flee.
Xue An let out a chuckle, “Now that you’ve emerged, do you still think you can leave?”
After speaking, Xue An pressed the void, and called out coldly, “Stay!”
Crack.
The brilliant light was instantly immobilized.
It was then that everyone could finally see clearly.
It was a hundred-zhang tall gigantic pill furnace, with countless Talisman Spells etched around it, all flickering with a terrifying pressure.

The elders responsible for the evaluation suddenly exclaimed, “This… this is a Heavenly-ranked Pill Furnace!”
Upon hearing this, everyone was shaken to their core.
The Quenching Elixir Ancestor stood staring at this scene, murmuring in a daze, “So it turns out… the Heavenly-ranked Pill Furnace that has eluded us for so long was hidden beneath Wandan City all along!”
At that moment, Xue An’s voice, calm and indifferent, spread across the entire venue.
“Quenching Elixir, today I shall show you all how the Holy Elixirs are refined!”
Having said that, Xue An stomped fiercely, “Mountains as the furnace, yin and yang as the flame, open the furnace and commence the refining!”
