Chapter 673: The Two Great Disciples of Wendao Sect Both Become Saints
"Fellow Daoist Qiankun speaks reasonably. In any case, we have all waited so long already. Waiting a few more days is nothing."
"Indeed. We shall wait a few more days."
"..."
As the Saints and Great Sages spoke, they continued to drink. With each cup of wine consumed, the banquet gradually came to an end.
After Chu Feng returned to his room, he sent a message to Jiang Yan, asking him to come to the Holy Court to observe this alchemy session.
Just as he sent the message, a system notification sounded in his mind.
"Host's disciple Ji Jiuwu has broken through to the Saint Realm. Rewarding host with ninety-nine points of Dao Essence."
So fast?
Chu Feng had not expected that young Ji Jiuwu to become a Saint so quickly. Next, he only needed to refine that Godhead fragment, and he would gain another Godhead. Now he only had to wait for Jiang Yan to become a Saint.
It seemed that within a century, he could become a Divine King possessing twelve Godheads. At that time, he would be able to manifest his True God Totems. Thinking of this, he felt an inexplicable excitement and fell asleep contentedly.
Seven days later, Jiang Yan arrived at the Holy Court. It was his first time visiting this place. Looking at the Holy Court that resembled an immortal realm, with Saints and Great Sages visible everywhere, he finally understood exactly what kind of sect he had joined.
Soon, Jiang Yan followed Shi Xuan to Chu Feng's residence. Upon entering, he saw his master whom he had longed for day and night. He immediately saluted, "Disciple Jiang Yan pays respects to Master."
"No need for formalities."
The corners of Chu Feng's mouth rose slightly. He carefully examined Jiang Yan and discovered that this boy was only one final Grand Dao truth away from becoming a Saint at nine hundred ninety-nine.
"You are also close to becoming a Saint. I hope this Dao Fruit Pill refinement will give you some insights."
Jiang Yan's eyes brightened upon hearing this. He had come to the Holy Court this time first to observe his master's alchemy, and second to seek an opportunity to break through to the Saint Realm. He had not expected his master to truly give him this chance.
He quickly cupped his hands and said, "Disciple thanks Master."
"No need to thank me."
Chu Feng said to Fang Mu beside him, "Xiao Mu, go tell everyone that in seven days, I will open the furnace for alchemy in the pill room. Everyone may come to observe."
"Understood."
Fang Mu acknowledged and then turned to leave.
Seven days later, inside Chu Feng's spacious alchemy room, a dense crowd had gathered. Chu Feng sat before the alchemy furnace while Fang Mu and Jiang Yan assisted him.
As the Heavenly Flame was drawn out by Chu Feng, he began to refine the pills unhurriedly. His speed was not fast, and his techniques were very clear, allowing everyone to see with utmost clarity.
But soon, everyone discovered a very serious problem. Divine King Qiankun's alchemy method involved the Heavenly Flame and himself refining pills together. This they truly could not learn. They could only learn other techniques.
However, Divine King Qiankun's other alchemy techniques were not significantly different from their own. In some aspects, his operational methods were even inferior to theirs.
Does this mean we also need to teach our Heavenly Flames alchemy?
This thought surfaced in the minds of many alchemists.
The days passed one by one. Chu Feng refined the pills unhurriedly, occasionally answering questions from Fang Mu and Jiang Yan.
This scene left the surrounding alchemists dumbfounded. They also wished to refine pills in this manner.
After ninety-nine days, pill light appeared atop the alchemy furnace. Refining pills in the Holy Court meant no need to worry about pill tribulations. Therefore, this batch of Dao Fruit Pills was considered successfully refined. Everyone turned their gazes toward the furnace, waiting for Chu Feng to open it so they could broaden their horizons.
As Chu Feng opened the furnace, a top-grade Dao Fruit Pill emitting purple-golden light appeared before everyone's eyes.
Chu Feng casually stored this top-grade Dao Fruit Pill in his storage ring and slowly asked, "Does anyone have any questions?"
Xuanmu Pill Saint asked, "Fellow Daoist Qiankun, how did you manage to make the Heavenly Flame assist you in alchemy?"
"This is simple. Just teach it alchemy methods. Once it can refine top-grade pills and achieve self-sufficiency through its own labor, the Heavenly Flame can assist you in refining higher-grade pills." Chu Feng spoke unhurriedly, as if describing something extremely ordinary.
What responded to Chu Feng was a prolonged silence. Everyone understood the logic, but they could not implement it.
Xuanmu Pill King spoke again, "Divine King Qiankun's alchemy skills are unparalleled. We are truly impressed. May I ask, do your two disciples also learn this alchemy method?"
"Indeed."
Chu Feng said to Fang Mu, "Xiao Mu, show them."
"Understood."
Fang Mu immediately summoned his Heavenly Flame. After communicating with it, the flame began refining pills. Soon, a batch of the most basic top-grade Body Tempering Pills appeared before everyone.
Gasp...
The people present gasped upon seeing this scene. Top-grade Body Tempering Pills were completely worthless in their eyes, but it was different if they were refined by a Heavenly Flame.
If the Heavenly Flame could automatically control the heat, then one could wholeheartedly control the inside of the furnace during alchemy, and the techniques could become even more perfect.
"This old one has learned something."
After speaking, Xuanmu Pill King cupped his hands toward Chu Feng and turned to leave. He pondered whether he should teach his own Heavenly Flame alchemy, which would save him considerable effort.
Many alchemists shared the same thought as Xuanmu Pill Saint. Thus, in the following days, the alchemists of the Alchemy Court developed a craze for Heavenly Flames.
The Saints and Great Sages who visited the Alchemy Court often saw these alchemists teaching their Heavenly Flames to refine pills. This left them completely bewildered. If Heavenly Flames could refine pills, what would they need alchemists for?
Chu Feng's life once again became peaceful. Jiang Yan did not leave the Holy Court immediately. After exchanging ideas with Chu Feng, he comprehended the final Grand Dao truth before leaving the Holy Court to break through to the Saint Realm at Wendao Sect.
After returning to Wendao Sect, Jiang Yan had no time to exchange pleasantries with his senior brothers, senior sisters, and juniors before beginning his closed-door cultivation to break through to the Saint Realm.
Several days later, spirit rain fell over Wendao Sect. Jiang Yan's aura transformed from Half-Saint Realm to Saint Realm. After adjusting his breath, he left his place of cultivation and walked outside, bathing in the spirit rain.
"Junior Brother, congratulations on becoming a Saint."
Ji Jiuwu saw the transformed Jiang Yan and congratulated him with a smile.
Jiang Yan said, "I am still far inferior to Senior Brother. Fortunately, I received Master's guidance this time. Otherwise, I would still need considerable time to break through to the Saint Realm."
Ji Jiuwu said excitedly, "Stop being modest, you boy. Come, let us brothers drink together in the rain."
"Excellent!"
Jiang Yan did not refuse.
Meanwhile, Chu Feng also received a system notification: "Host's disciple Jiang Yan has broken through to the Saint Realm. Rewarding host with ninety-nine points of Dao Essence."
Upon hearing this sound, the corners of his mouth rose slightly. He muttered, "Wendao Sect finally has a second disciple at the Saint Realm. I wo
