C257 Tan Laoer's Pill Concoction

Yao Guang's eyes instantly lit up when he heard this. One must know that when he went to the City of Death, he also needed to collect all of the Deathly Token. This meant that there was a high chance that the heart of a Martial Saint would appear in this treasure trove.

"Alright, I understand!" What business do you have with me? " Yao Guang already knew about the treasure map in his heart, so he deliberately changed the topic.

"It's like this, just now my father asked me and my brother for a competition between you and Tan Qian tomorrow!" Kong Liang explained.

"Humph, since that's the case, then tomorrow I will let Kong Village and Elder Tan Qian see my abilities!" Yao Guang sneered.

Seeing how confident Yao Guang was, Kong Liang was overjoyed. This Young Master Yao's strength was already terrifying. If he could refine a Grade Four Pill, then he would be holding onto a huge tree. The Kong Family would definitely be his in the future.

"Good, then I'll come again tomorrow to ask Young Master Yao for a good rest. I'll take my leave first!" After Kong Liang finished his sentence, he turned around and left. However, his mood was many times better than when he had first entered the room.

The night passed silently, and the next day was noon. For the entire Kong Family, this was destined to happen, because the Kong Family had invited two Tier 3 pill refiners to compete in pill refining techniques. Everyone was busily making arrangements in the manor, while Kong Liang had already arrived at Yao Guang's courtyard early in the morning to wait.

At this moment, Yao Guang's room door opened and he calmly walked out. Seeing Yao Guang coming out, Kong Liang suddenly stood up from his stone chair and happily asked, "How was Young Master Yao's rest last night?"

Yao Guang faintly smiled and said, "Fortunately, when will the competition begin?"

"There's still about two hours. Young Master Yao, I'll bring you to the Kong family's pill refining room. I believe that everyone is already there waiting for you!" Kong Liang respectfully said.

Yao Guang nodded and said, "Alright, lead the way then!" With that, the two walked towards the alchemy lab.

After the two of them passed through the inner courtyard, they finally arrived at the Kong clan's alchemy room. At this moment, it was packed with Kong clansmen. The one sitting in the middle was the Kong Clan Manor's lord, Kong Cheng.

After returning yesterday, he swallowed a large amount of medicinal pellets and finally recovered from his injuries. In his heart, he hated Yao Guang, but he knew that he was not Yao Guang's match, and when he saw Yao Guang walk over, he only nodded slightly in greeting and did not say anything. However, he had already brought the information back to the Dark Shadow Hall. He believed that it wouldn't be long before the Dark Shadow Palace would send their experts here. The treasure map of the Kong Clan was something the Dark Shadow Palace had no choice but to obtain.

Yao Guang and Kong Liang walked into the alchemy room under the scornful gaze of the Kong family members. Seeing Yao Guang walk over, Kong Qiliang smiled and said, "Young Master Yao, today is the time for you to show off. This old man is looking forward to it!"

"Clan Head Kong, rest assured. I will do my best!" Yao Guang said with a smile.

The Kong Family clansmen did not take it seriously.

"This kid is a Tier 3 pill refiner at such a young age?"

"Hmph, just look at him, he doesn't have the temperament of an apothecary. I think Elder Tan is much stronger than this kid!"

"Exactly, I'll see this kid make a fool of himself later!"

The alchemy lab was not big, and even though everyone's whispers were soft, it still reached Kong Chang's ears.

Kong Liangliang gave an awkward smile and did not say anything more, but Yao Guang pretended not to hear, because from the time he had been training as a warrior until now, he had long since gotten used to such a disdainful voice.

Kong Liang was the only one who looked worriedly at Yao Guang, afraid that the crowd would affect his mood. However, seeing Yao Guang's expressionless face, he finally let out a breath of relief.

On the other hand, Tan Qian sneered on the inside as he looked at Yao Guang with a hint of disdain.

Kong Hao whispered, "Don't worry, elder Tan. No matter how strong this brat is, his alchemy skills will definitely not be a match for you." Kong Hao said casually.

Tan Qian was praised to the point that his body and mind felt comfortable, it was as if his fear of Yao Guang had disappeared, he only smiled and nodded. He then opened his mouth and said: "Manor Lord Kong, since Young Master Yao has arrived, can we begin?"

"Cough!" Since everyone is present, we can begin! " Kong Jianliang said with a smile.

At this moment, Tan Qian stared at Yao Guang and spoke, "Young Master Yao's cultivation base is high, your pill refining skills must be even more powerful. This old man wants to experience it."

Yao Guang glanced at Tan Qian and sneered: "Old thing, I know you won't be satisfied with yesterday's matter, but I'll take care of you today and let you come first. If I come first, I'm afraid you won't want to refine pills anymore!"

Most of the surrounding Kong clansmen were unaware of what had happened yesterday. Seeing Yao Guang act so arrogantly, they all began to discuss in low voices.

"Damn!" This Young Master Yao is too arrogant! "

"Hmph, what use is there just bragging? If he really has such a powerful pill refining skill, he would have brought it out a long time ago. In my opinion, Elder Tan is still the best!"1

However, when Tan Qian heard Yao Guang's words, although he was inwardly angered, his face was expressionless. Smiling, he said: "Alright, since it's like this, then this old man will be making a fool of himself!" With that, he stood up and walked to the side of a pill furnace. He glanced at the materials on the stone table and said, "Is Manor Lord Kong planning to refine a Tier 4 Earth Pill?"

"That's right!" Although this grade four Earth Spirit Pill is considered precious, the materials are not hard to find. " Kong Jianliang said with a smile.

"Alright!" After Tan Qian finished speaking, she flicked her sleeves and the three materials were instantly floating in the air. They were all wrapped up and refined by the cyan light, and as the cyan light continued to flash, the medicinal dregs continued to fall from the air.

The corner of Yao Guang's mouth curved into a sneer. Although this old fellow's control was incomparably adept, his purification speed was so slow that it would definitely consume a huge amount of soul power. In the future, his soul power would definitely be depleted and he would fail.

In the blink of an eye, two hours had passed and Tan Qian had finally finished purifying the ingredients. Three clumps of medicinal essence wrapped in cyan light floated in the air, looking extremely dazzling.

"See, it's still Elder Tan. The quality of the refined essence is already so good, so the refined pill must be one of the best." A Kong family middle-aged man boasted.

After hearing this, Yao Guang almost burst out in laughter. He had never heard of such a thing. Just by looking at the quality of the essence, the quality of the pills refined would be extremely high.

Tan Qian wiped away the cold sweat on his forehead, his face was as pale as paper, and clenched his teeth. He flicked his sleeves again, and with a thought, he forcibly fused the three types of essences together.

Although Yao Guang's control was always easy, and Tan Qian had difficulty fusing them, but the three types of materials seemed to be innately repulsive, quickly separating, the strength was astonishing.

Tan Qian had no choice but to continue to control his soul power and fuse them. However, this consumption was much greater than purification, and in the end, the essence couldn't be purified successfully. Tan Qian turned to Kong Jianliang and said, "My consumption is huge, I need to rest for a while. Patriarch Kong, please don't worry!"

"Apothecary Tan Qian, there's no need to speak anymore. Just go ahead and rest!" Kong Liangliang's attitude was superb, and in his mind, pill refining had always been this difficult.

But Yao Guang suddenly sneered, "You've spent so much effort yet you couldn't even complete the second step. You sure are giving a lot of face to an alchemist!"
