Dragon King Hall's Legend

After all, most of those with alchemical talent who come here are students in compulsory education. Mu Jinyu is reluctant to have them give up their studies and come to practice alchemy every day just to make things easier for himself.

He has no reason to sacrifice these students for the sake of achieving something for the entire nation.

Therefore, the trouble he initially wanted to offload onto the Great Xia Dragon Sparrow ended up being something he had to resolve himself.

"Forget it, let's give it a try. Fortunately, before I knew the Great Xia Dragon Sparrow had five hundred students with a Fire Spirit Root, I already had a general solution; otherwise, I'd really be having a headache now."

Mu Jinyu slightly furrowed his brows, then lifted his hand slightly, his palm shimmering with an indefinable brilliance. He used the laws of heaven and earth to transform the soil beneath him, akin to turning stone into gold, changing it from dirt into mineral, which was then forged into an alchemy furnace.

After forging it into an alchemy furnace, Mu Jinyu then attempted to inscribe processes inside it. When the spiritual medicine enters the pill furnace, it automatically refines the spiritual medicine, then proceeds with the smelting of medicinal liquid, finally solidifying into a pill, ensuring the potency...

This actually is quite challenging.

Far more difficult than utilizing formations, transforming spiritual energy through various steps into Yi Wood True Qi, descending as spiritual rain to hasten the growth of spiritual medicines in the medicine field.

First, how to ensure the purity of the medicinal liquid autonomously refined by the pill furnace.

Second, how to guarantee no mistakes occur during the medicinal liquid smelting process, preventing one liquid from prematurely merging with another, thus turning medicine into poison...

Third, ensuring how much medicinal power remains in the resulting pill...

These issues are all extremely challenging!

Of course, although very difficult, as long as Mu Jinyu is willing to spend time refining them over and over, he can always completely figure out a suitable method.

Unlike the hastening of spiritual medicines, if he didn't have a Divine Formation Disc, if there weren't a large number of cultivators with a Wood Spirit Root, if there weren't Dragon Vein Land, then the plan would fail and simply wouldn't work.

"Sigh... Step by step then..."

Mu Jinyu sighed softly, and after inscribing a formation program, he cast a spiritual medicine used for refining Essence Qi Pill into the pill furnace he had just forged.

Then he carefully observed the process of the spiritual medicine extracting medicinal liquid within, checked if there were mistakes in the process of medicinal liquid mutual smelting, then awaited the final pill solidification.

"Bang!"

Unfortunately, the process of extracting medicinal liquid via formation failed initially, following that, two kinds of medicinal liquid which needed another gentle medicinal power failed to neutralize the surge and prematurely merged, causing the pill furnace to explode.

"Ah, really monotonous..."

Mu Jinyu sighed helplessly, once again turned soil into mineral, crafted another pill furnace, summarized the experience again, re-inscribed formation operation programs, then threw in the spiritual medicine, and failed again...

...

While Mu Jinyu continued to try autonomously refining pills.

Capital City, outskirts.

Great Xia Dragon Sparrow Headquarters.

In the high-level meeting room, all the high-level figures of Great Xia Dragon Sparrow from various places had gathered, waiting for Xia Ruochen to start the meeting.

"Alright, everyone is here. Next, before we begin the meeting, I'll first show you a video..."

Xia Ruochen opened the door to the meeting room, walked in, scanned the people present, and then stood on the podium, speaking loudly.

Everyone, hearing his words, carried a sense of curiosity and doubt, but did not clamor.

After Xia Ruochen finished speaking, he pressed a button, and instantly, a video appeared on the screen behind him.

It was Mu Jinyu using the Divine Formation Disc, allowing five cultivators with a Wood Spirit Root to release Wood Attribute True Essence, then transforming via Dragon Vein Qi, turning into a spiritual rain, and when the spiritual rain fell, Mu Jinyu scattered a handful of seeds on the empty ground ahead.

Instantly, an unbelievable scene unfolded before everyone's eyes.

They saw seeds quickly take root and sprout on the empty ground, as if the video was sped up, soon growing into spiritual medicine seedlings, and after a few minutes transforming into mature spiritual medicine.

"This is... Star Pole Grass, Magnolia Ganoderma, Blue Yuan Root, all are first stage spiritual medicines..."

"How could they mature in just a few minutes? Boss, you didn't speed up the video, right?"

The people in the meeting room, seeing the changes in spiritual medicine within the video, knowing that Xia Ruochen couldn't be showing them a sped-up and edited video, still couldn't help but question skeptically.

"Keep watching."

Xia Ruochen didn't explain, saying calmly.

In his tone, however, was unconcealed excitement and agitation.

Everyone remained silent, then continued watching.

Quickly, ten minutes into the video, everyone basically confirmed that this segment wasn't an edited effect, because Xia Ruochen just stood there without any changes.

This time, someone familiar with spiritual medicine couldn't help but exclaim: "Ten minutes, these spiritual medicines already have a ten-year medicinal age. What is in this spiritual liquid...?"

"Old Lin, are you sure, less than ten minutes, these spiritual medicines already have ten years of medicinal age?"

Hearing the exclamation, a group of people in the meeting room couldn't contain their emotions, turned to look at the person, and asked excitedly.

"Certainly." Old Lin nodded proudly, said: "I have deep research in spiritual medicines, and just a minute into the video, I saw those spiritual medicines have already grown from seeds to mature ones. At that time, I too felt quite shocked, but I also thought the effect was just like that, after all, newly mature spiritual medicines aren't very useful. But I didn't expect, in just ten minutes, these spiritual medicines actually grew at a rate of gaining a year of medicinal age per minute, which is quite terrifying..."

While saying that, Old Lin looked up at Xia Ruochen standing on the podium, glanced at the video, and said: "It's already eleven years medicinal age, soon to be twelve, Boss, is this video real? Where did this spiritual liquid come from, and to what extent can it hasten the maturation of spiritual medicines?"

Old Lin asked multiple questions of great concern to people present.

Xia Ruochen said with a smile: "The video is real, and the hastening effect of the spiritual liquid is initially quite effective, but eventually, after reaching a century-old medicinal age, there's not much effect, requiring roughly 24 hours. As for the origin of the spiritual liquid, it's developed by the Dragon King of Dragon King Hall."

"Dragon King?!"

"Why is it him..."

Upon hearing Xia Ruochen's words, everyone's expression slightly changed, their eyes revealed apprehension and suspicion.

"What's Dragon King up to by developing this?"

Someone asked apprehensively.

Xia Ruochen repeated Mu Jinyu's original words.

"To perfect the martial cultivation plan for all, allowing everyone in the nation, even the old, weak, sick, unable to cultivate, to consume Essence Qi Pill to strengthen their bodies?!"

"Is he really so kind-hearted?"

When everyone heard Xia Ruochen's words, they all frowned and questioned.

"I feel it's because Dragon King returned and found their Dragon King Hall's status now being impacted by us Great Xia Dragon Sparrow, hence deliberately made this arrangement. He wants to regain the power of their Dragon King Hall!"

"Yes, I also feel that way, this year alone, their Dragon King Hall only eradicated ferocious beasts outside, ignoring everything else!

"And we've been executing the martial cultivation plan for all, sweeping away ignorance in schools everywhere, letting the entire nation know how to cultivate and strengthen themselves, then establishing martial arts schools to absorb well-natured and talented students into our Great Xia Dragon Sparrow...

"Now a year has passed, we've established the prestige of Great Xia Dragon Sparrow as Huaxia's foremost organization, in the eyes of the uninformed, their Dragon King Hall seems merely a branch of ours, just a sharp sword in our hand!

But upon Dragon King's return, surely it's displeasing to see this, thus wanting to use this tactic to directly render us powerless!"

"Indeed, the cultivation techniques we taught the populace all came from Dragon King Hall; they must have even better cultivation methods. Now with inexhaustible elixirs to aid cultivation, coordinating with a new round of martial cultivation plan for all, if propagated, they could instantly devour the fruits of our year's labor!"

"Even the students we've absorbed earlier, upon learning about Dragon King Hall's situation, would undoubtedly also secretly join Dragon King Hall, and though by name Dragon King Hall and we are peer organizations, not adversaries, we'd be powerless against them then..."

"As time goes, Dragon King Hall would then reign supreme worldwide, while we, though nominally an official organization, would be lacking in manpower and prestige..."

Everyone was in uproar, discussing fervently.

They all believed Mu Jinyu had wolfish ambitions, with a large appetite, preparing to devour the hard-earned results of their Great Xia Dragon Sparrow's year-long efforts...
