The Fight Break Sphere

Chapter 6 – Alchemists

Inside the jade box, the green pill, the size of a Dragon's eye, was placed quietly. The refreshing aroma that spread throughout the hall came from the pill!

In a Mainland Dou Qi, to become a Dou Zhe, one must be able to compress the Qi within his body into a Qi cyclone. However the process of compressing Qi into a Qi cyclone has a very high failure rate. After failing, 9 Duan Qi someone would return to 8 Duan. Some unlucky people needed to compress their Qi 10 times or more before they managed to do so. But by wasting so much time on Qi compression, one would lose the best time to practice Qi and thus destroy their future.

Qi Gathering Power, its use was to allow someone with 9 Duan Qi to have a 100% success rate when trying to compress one's Qi!

This effect makes many people red. After all, anyone who was not a Dou Zhe would be treated very badly.

But the Qi Gathering Power was not something created by nature, but rather made by someone: Alchemist!

In the Dou Qi Mainland, the only profession more desirable than a Dou Zhe was an Alchemist.

As the name suggests, alchemists are capable of making special pills that increase one's strength. Every free-agent alchemist was sought by many powers.

The reason why alchemists had such a high position was because of how rare alchemists were and how strict the requirements to become alchemists were.

First of all, one must possess the fire attribute. And then, within the fire attribute, one had to have a small piece of wood attribute to act as a catalysis in pill refining.

In a Mainland Dou Qi, one's attributes were determined by their soul. A soul from birth would only have one single attribute and reject another. So it was impossible for one to have two attributes.

Of course nothing is impossible. In a million people, there will always be someone who has a mutated soul. Within these people who possessed these mutated souls, some had the potential to become Alchemists!

However, someone who possessed the attributes of fire and wood was not enough to become an Alchemist. It was because one also had to have a strong Soul Perception or Soul Molds!

In pill refinement, the three most important requirements were: Ingredients, flames, and the perception of one's soul.

Ingredients. They should be natural treasures. After all, even the best alchemists could not concoct god-level pills from trash materials. Therefore, a good base ingredient is essential for a good pill.

Flame. Or the fire required when refining pills. The fire used in the refining pill was impossible for ordinary fire but rather, it was definitely a Dou Qi flame created through Dou Qi with fire attribute. Of course, there were some extremely powerful mutated flames in nature. Some powerful alchemists would take this flame and use it to refine pills, not their own Dou Qi flames. This mutated flame not only increased the success rate of refinement, but it also increased the effectiveness of the pill!

Since refining pills were a terrifying task, the long refining period required a lot of Dou Qi, and as such, every brilliant alchemist was also a powerful fire-type Dou Zhe.

The final requirement was Soul Perception.

When refining a pill, the intensity of the flame needed to be controlled with ludicrous precision. If the fire was a little too hot, the pills inside the furnace would burn to ashes, wasting the alchemist's time and energy. Therefore, controlling the intensity of the flame was a prerequisite to becoming an alchemist. But in order to have control over fire, one had to have an overwhelming Soul Perception; without Soul Perception, even if one met or even exceeded the first two requirements, there was no point in trying to refine a pill.

Under these strict conditions, people who had the qualifications to become alchemists were few and far between. As there were not many alchemists, the magic pills they refined were also few and far between. Since rare things were precious and pills could definitely be defined as rare, all alchemists had an honorable position, to an excessive extent.

… ..

Inside the main hall, with the gasps of the three elders, the younger generation were all staring at the Jade box in Ge Ye's hands.

Next to her father, Xiao Mei licked her red lips with her soft tongue and stared at the box, without blinking…

“Hehe, this was refined by our esteemed elder Gu He. I think everyone here has heard his name, right? ” Seeing the humiliating looks of the three elders, Ge Ye started to become arrogant.

“Pil is refined by Pill King Gu He?” Hearing Ge Ye's words, the three elders once again embarrassed themselves.

Not only did Gu He possess extraordinary talent in alchemy, his own strength was at the level of a Dou Wang and he was one of the top ten Dou Zhes in the Jia Ma Empire.

Refined by his hand, the value of the Qi Gathering Powder might be exponentially higher than that of other normal Qi Gathering Power.

The three elders smiled at the Qi Gathering Powder inside the Jade box. If the Xiao Clan obtained this Qi Gathering Powder, then the Xiao Clan might be able to develop a young Dou Zhe again.

Just when the three elders were thinking about how to obtain pills for their own grandchildren, a young voice filled with anger echoed within the main hall.

“Bapak. Ge Ye, it would be best if you kept the pills. Your request, we may not accept it! ”

The main hall fell silent and everyone's gaze turned to Xiao Yan's gentle face in the corner.

“Xiao Yan, you have no right to say anything now. Quiet!” One of the elders face darkened as he shouted at Xiao Yan.

“Xiao Yao, shut up. I know you're not happy about this but we'll decide what happens! ” Said another quite old elder to Xiao Yan.

“Three parents, if your son or grandson freed his marriage today, would you still say that?” Xiao Yao slowly stood up. The tip of his mouth curved upwards as a mockery. Since it was clear that the three elders treated him with disdain, why should he be so respectful towards them?

“You ..” Hearing Xiao Yan's words, the three elders could not find a way to refute his words. The grumpy third elder even started to realize his Dou Qi furiously.

“Three elders, Xiao Yao ge-ge is not wrong. He is a victim of this so you should not decide for him. ” The clear voice of a girl is heard from across the main hall.

Hearing the girl's voice, the arrogance of the three elders fell and after exchanging worried looks, they all nodded and sat back down.

Seeing the three elders retreating, Xiao Yao turned his head back and looked deeply at the smiling Xiao Xun Er. You who? To be able to make the three elders fear you …

Suppressing his confusion, Xiao Yao quickly walked over and respectfully bowed to his father, Xiao Zhan. After which, he turned around to face Nalan Yanran. Slowly inhaling the air, he asked: “Nona Nalan, I want to ask a question. Your visit here today, to let go of the marriage, did Grandpa Nalan give his approval? ”

Previously, when Xiao Yan walked out of his corner, Nalan Yanran was already uncomfortable with him. Now hearing his question, his brows furrowed. This guy, at first I thought he was pretty good, but actually he was very shameless. Does he not know the difference between the two of us?

Criticizing Xiao Yan in his mind, Nalan Yanran never thought of how letting go of the marriage would leave Xiao Yan and his father in an awkward and annoying situation.

Standing up and looking at the husband who was supposed to be her husband, Nalan Yanran said: “Grandfather did not give his consent. But! It's my own problem and it has nothing to do with him. ”

“Because Grandpa hasn't said anything then I hope you will forgive my father for not accepting your request. Our marriage was arranged by both our grandfathers and since none of them said to let go of the marriage then this marriage will continue. Or, people who try to let go of the marriage will disrespect their ancestors! I think, within our clan, there is no one who would do such a dishonorable thing. ” Xiao Yan tilted his head and looked straight at the three elders.

Using a dishonorable title, Xiao Yan forced the elders to shut up. In a tight clan, doing something blasphemous like disrespecting the ancestors was enough for them to lose their place as clan elders.

“You ..” After being rejected by Xiao Yan, Nalan Yanran was unable to find an argument to avenge Xiao Yan's claim. Her face turned pale and stomped her feet violently, her princess-like nature becoming clear. Looking at the young man with disgust, he resentfully said, “In what conditions are you going to give up marriage? Is the repair too little? Alright, I can ask my teacher to give you 3 more Qi Gathering Powder. Moreover, if you wish, I can allow you to join the Misty Cloud Faction and learn the profound Dou Qi training method, is that enough? ”

Hearing the attractive conditions of Nalan Yanran, the breathing of the three elders began to become heavy. Inside the main hall, the younger generation gulped. Joining the Misty Clouds Faction? Oh my God, that's the dream of many people …

After saying all these conditions, Nalan Yanran raised his chin as white as his snow, like a princess calling out to her servants. He waited for Xiao Yan's reply and knew that this condition was enough to drive every young man crazy …
