Chapter 1255 1214: Arrogant Jianng Wanli

At this moment, Jianng Wanli arrogantly sneered and said, "Although I don't know what Qi Xuchong needs from you, it seems you're very important to him? While I'm not afraid of him, it's best not to offend him unnecessarily..."

That contemptuous demeanor, along with those superior, mocking words, made Chen Fei clench his fingers fiercely within his sleeve, his eyes darkening. This guy is really annoying!

"I'm giving you a chance now, forget about the Heavenly Stem Dragon Bamboo issue." He said indifferently to Chen Fei, his tone full of disdain and command.

After speaking, he took out a Pill Bottle, opened it, and a round pill lay quietly inside, exuding a fragrant scent.

Jianng Wanli looked down at Chen Fei and mocked, "Do you want it? This is a Top Grade Level Five 'Kun Python Cloud Pill,' which can increase a cultivator's chance of successfully forming a pill by ten percent. Hehe... If you can forget about the Heavenly Stem Dragon Bamboo and beg me properly, I wouldn't mind giving this 'Kun Python Cloud Pill' to you as a gift..."

Chen Fei shook his head and said, "You'd better keep that trash for yourself."

"What did you say?" Jianng Wanli narrowed his eyes and said coldly.

"I said, keep that trash for yourself, I'm not interested." Chen Fei said indifferently, with a hint of mockery in his heart, a chance of ten percent pill formation success? He could produce a pile of such inferior things even with his eyes closed, of any use?

"If you want to kill me now, I'll gladly accompany you. Let's see if you have the ability for that. If not, then please leave. As for the Heavenly Stem Dragon Bamboo, it is mine to claim."

Having said that lightly, Chen Fei turned around and walked away in the distance, under Jianng Wanli's gaze, which gradually turned from surprise to gloom. He had no further intentions to pay attention to Jianng Wanli's demeanor.

Bang! Watching Chen Fei's receding figure,

Jianng Wanli released a terrifying aura, exuding a cold murderous intent. Yet, when his gaze settled on a figure not far away, he snorted coldly and shook his head, mumbling, "If it weren't for Qi Xuchong's sake, why would I bother talking nonsense with you... truly an ignorant fool."

"Since you're so eager to die, I'll fulfill your wish! Let's see how many tricks you can pull then? Haha..."

With a cold laugh, Jianng Wanli also turned and left.

"This guy..." Meanwhile, not far away, that figure muttered, then was enveloped by a thin layer of radiant light, disappearing into the sky in the blink of an eye.

Afterward, this figure appeared before Chen Fei. Chen Fei was slightly startled and immediately said, "Senior Qi Xuchong, is it you?"

Indeed, this figure was none other than the ancestor of Qi Family Fort — Qi Xuchong!

If it weren't for his presence, Jianng Wanli might have already attacked Chen Fei to eliminate future trouble.

The Heavenly Stem Dragon Bamboo is very important to Chen Fei, and equally important to Jianng Wanli! Otherwise, why would he have searched painstakingly for over ten years, persevering till now?

"Yes, it's me..." Qi Xuchong nodded and then looked at Chen Fei with a somewhat strange expression, saying, "To be honest, you have real courage. You should know Jianng Wanli has the ability to kill you, right? And yet you dare to speak to him like that?"

"Isn't it because you're here, senior? Given that, what should I fear?" Chen Fei chuckled and said.

Qi Xuchong was slightly taken aback by these words and asked, "Did you notice I was here just now?" He's at the Great Heaven Rank, and Chen Fei, this kid, isn't even at the True Monarch Realm yet. How could he have noticed him? That's unlikely, right?

Chen Fei didn't answer this question but shook his head, his gaze turning cold, "That guy doesn't seem like anything good. I initially intended to negotiate with him, but now it seems unnecessary."

Qi Xuchong was silent for a moment, unable to help but ask, "Are you really not interested in the 'Kun Python Cloud Pill'?"

"Kun Python Cloud Pill?" Chen Fei shook his head without hesitation and said, "Not interested."

Qi Xuchong was stumped, staring at Chen Fei for a long time, finally shaking his head helplessly and saying, "You're still a total oddball! Jianng Wanli's signature is that Kun Python Cloud Pill, which can increase pill formation rate by ten percent for those attempting the Primordial Core Realm. It's indeed a treasure, hard to find even with great effort, and yet you're not interested?"

"I said I could make hundreds of variations of that junk with my eyes closed, do you believe me?" Chen Fei said plainly.

Qi Xuchong was momentarily dumbfounded, rolling his eyes, "I believe you!"

He believes that only a ghost would!

This Kun Python Core Pill, let alone a Top Grade Level Five Alchemist, even Jianng Wanli as a King Level Alchemist personally crafting it—its success rate is frighteningly low!

If Chen Fei claimed to be an alchemist, Qi Xuchong might barely believe it, but talking about crafting such a superb pill, only a fool would believe that.

He wasn't stupid, was he?

Seeing that Qi Xuchong didn't believe, Chen Fei didn't say more but asked another question, "How long until the tomb opens?"

"Two days!" Qi Xuchong held up two fingers and said, "The time has been set, two days from now, the Four Great Powers and the people summoned by Jianng Wanli will enter and explore the tomb together. At that time, you can blend into our Qi Family Fort's team and enter."

"Two days?" Chen Fei's eyes flashed, only two days left? He finally waited for it.

"Also, there's another matter..." Qi Xuchong hesitated before speaking.

"What is it?" Chen Fei asked.

"I followed your previous advice and fed a Life Treasure Pill to our Qi Family Fort's Guardian Sacred Beast, but its condition is not good right now; the loss of vitality is completely uncontrollable." Qi Xuchong looked worried as he spoke.

"Who told you to feed it now?" Chen Fei rolled his eyes.

"Wasn't it supposed to be now?" Qi Xuchong's expression changed, "So what should I do now?"

"Give me ten drops of your blood, it must be Primordial Blood Essence!" Chen Fei said while raising his hand, allowing the Earth Spirit Flame of the Snake Heart to spread into the sky. It began to burn fiercely, intensely red.

"Ten drops of Primordial Blood Essence?" Qi Xuchong's expression changed again, "What are you trying to do?"

"Even if I explain, you wouldn't understand! Are you giving it or not? If not, I guess your Guardian Sacred Beast won't last until tomorrow's sunrise." Chen Fei replied calmly.

Qi Xuchong's expression changed several times, and finally, he gritted his teeth, stretched out his ten fingers, and forced out ten bright red, swirling, and seemingly alive drops of blood that exuded a terrifying aura!

The Primordial Blood Essence of any cultivator is imbued with immense power, and for someone like Qi Xuchong, who is at the Great Heaven Rank, a single drop of his Primordial Blood Essence could probably crush a huge stone.

Bang! With a soft thud, Chen Fei's finger shook slightly, and the Earth Spirit Flame of the Snake Heart transformed into a torrent, engulfing the ten drops of Primordial Blood Essence. The flames burned fiercely as Chen Fei sat on the ground, casting several hand seals into the void, causing the fiery waves to surge.

"You can really perform alchemy?" Qi Xuchong watched with mouth slightly agape, realizing that this was alchemy, but the fact that Chen Fei could indeed perform it, that he was an Alchemist, was something he hadn't expected, even found hard to believe.

Alchemist!

Sword Cultivator!

Body Cultivator!

Even for him, it was unimaginable how Chen Fei could have so much energy and talent, and be so monstrously brilliant, advancing in all three paths simultaneously and achieving such astounding accomplishments.

Although he wasn't sure about Chen Fei's alchemy ability level, one thing was clear: his Primordial Blood Essence wouldn't be easily refined by an ordinary alchemist...

Thinking of this, he watched Chen Fei's face closely, hoping to discern something, but it was of no use. He couldn't tell anything. The calm and composed demeanor on Chen Fei's face made even him feel some chill, as if what was happening was no challenge at all.

After several hours, the Earth Spirit Flame of the Snake Heart twisted and contorted countless times in the sky, until finally, it stopped... Chen Fei was forming seals with both hands and seeing this, he released one hand and pointed toward the static Earth Spirit Flame, which then stirred back into motion, transforming into a massive fire snake that devoured the blood cluster at its center.

"Did it fail?" Qi Xuchong squinted slightly as he watched this scene, not understanding alchemy and seeing Chen Fei's 'wild' alchemy method; he thought it had failed, murmuring with a somewhat unpleasant expression.

Just then, the violent fire snake suddenly dissipated, and in the flames' absence, a mysterious blood pill lay quietly there... For someone like Qi Xuchong, even he couldn't help but stand with mouth ajar again.

Chen Fei's demonstrated alchemy method and prowess were not only 'unconventional', but flowed smoothly like a force of nature! As he had subconsciously thought before, this alchemical feat seemed no challenge to Chen Fei.

However...

Qi Xuchong squinted his eyes at the mysterious blood pill; this pill was surely not simple.

"Take this and feed it to the beast, then find a place with heavy yin energy and bury it first. When I obtain the Heavenly Stem Dragon Bamboo, I'll come to fulfill my promise." Chen Fei handed over the blood pill to him.

Qi Xuchong held the pill in his hand, remained silent for a moment, and then spoke: "Jianng Wanli is troublesome, solely because of his King Level Alchemist status. If your alchemy ability is as formidable as his, demonstrating it would increase your chances of acquiring the Heavenly Stem Dragon Bamboo greatly."

"How to demonstrate?" Chen Fei did not deny, but asked plainly.

"You truly..." Qi Xuchong's pupils contracted slightly, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "It's simple, I can handle it."

A King Level Alchemist can refine King Pills! And those King Pills—not just to those at the Minor Heavenly Position, but even someone like him at the Great Heaven Rank—are extremely desirable. If Chen Fei truly possesses the ability, Jianng Wanli would pose much less threat to him.

Many have paid a great price seeking out Jianng Wanli to refine King Pills, but the success rate was shockingly low! Each failure brought immense loss to the seekers, which eventually led to nobody seeking Jianng Wanli for King Pills anymore.

"Alright. You handle it, I don't care; as long as I get the Heavenly Stem Dragon Bamboo..."

The two exchanged words for a while before parting.

At the same time, a significant earthquake occurred within Earth Martial City...
