Alchemy Sovereign Against the Heaven-Chapter 86 Fire Poison

"Hehe, old fellow, haven’t you been looking for the person who gave me the Alchemy Recipe for the Life Extension Pill?"

Hearing the old man’s words, Elder Ling chuckled.

"You mean..."

The old man was stunned, and soon a look of surprise appeared on his face, "That Alchemy Recipe was given to you by this young friend?!"

How could that be?!

In the old man’s eyes, although the Life Extension Pill was only a third-grade Pill, its ability to extend one’s lifespan was a godly pill he had never heard of before, and he himself had experienced its effects, which were truly divine!

Although the Pill was not of high grade, its impact was enough to shake any faction.

Such a Pill’s Alchemy Recipe, in the old man’s opinion, should have come from the hands of experienced Alchemists, yet he never thought that the recipe given to Elder Ling was from a youngster about the same age as his own disciples?

How could that be...

"Junior Mo Wangchen greets the senior!"

Mo Wangchen smiled, and before he could even take a warm seat, he stood again and cupped his hands in salute.

"Young friend, are you also an Alchemist?" The old man looked Lin Feng up and down, still amazed, for in his view, unless the person was also an Alchemist, how could they possess an Alchemy Recipe?

However, in Yunge City, among the younger generation of Alchemists, it seemed only Elder Ling’s disciple, Liang Yuqiu of the Liang Family, had some achievements.

Who was this young man before him? freēnovelkiss.com

The surname Mo?

It seemed there wasn’t a family with the surname Mo in Yunge City.

"Hey! Isn’t it a coincidence that this lad is a Guest Alchemist of our Alchemist Alliance!" Elder Ling laughed, all of which Liang Yuqiu had told him before first meeting Mo Wangchen.

"Oh?" Hearing this, the old man again showed surprise, "At such a young age, already a second-grade Alchemist, that’s quite rare!"

To become a Guest Alchemist of the Alchemist Alliance, one must at least have the identity of a second-grade Alchemist, and if Mo Wangchen were a Guest Alchemist, his Alchemy Dao Skill couldn’t possibly be below second grade.

And what surprised the old man the most was that he had never seen such a young second-grade Alchemist before, even Liang Yuqiu was only first-grade, and perhaps after this year’s Alchemist test, he would formally become a second-grade Alchemist.

"I am Wan Quan, after consuming the Life Extension Pill, I feel as if I’ve become younger, and that’s all thanks to you, young friend."

After speaking, the old man arose and solemnly cupped his hands toward Mo Wangchen.

"Wan..."

Hearing him state his name, Mo Wangchen furrowed his brows slightly, as if remembering something, "Could senior be from the Wan Family, one of the five powerful families?"

He was inwardly amazed, the Wan Family was one of the five powerful families, and from the old man, Mo Wangchen faintly sensed a well-concealed aura. Perhaps his cultivation was on par with Elder Ling’s, at the Returning Ruins Realm, a true elite of Yun Country!

Such a person likely held a high status in the Wan Family, perhaps even at the ancestral level!

"Hehe, the current Family Head of the Wan Family is my son." Wan Quan smiled, not surprised that Lin Feng guessed his identity.

Hearing this, Lin Feng was shocked, so he had guessed correctly, Wan Quan was indeed the Wan Family’s ancestor!

Looking at Mo Wangchen, Wan Quan smiled, just as he was about to say something, he suddenly furrowed his brows slightly, coughed twice, and spat out some blood.

Witnessing this, Elder Ling hurriedly approached and took Wan Quan’s pulse. After a moment, he frowned, "Why has it become so severe?"

"Ah, this poison has been in me for many years, even you couldn’t expel it. If not for that Life Extension Pill, I might be in a coffin by now. I came to see you today to find out how much time I have left to arrange Wan Family matters..."

Wan Quan sighed, his gaze scattered, resembling a dying man.

"At most, three months..."

After a moment of silence, Elder Ling spoke.

Wan Quan chuckled, "Hehe, three months, that should suffice..."

"What kind of poison has the senior contracted?"

Mo Wangchen asked suddenly, frowning as he stood nearby.

Upon first seeing Wan Quan, he noticed something poisonous lurking in his body.

Hearing his question, Wan Quan hesitated, then didn’t hide anything, after all, without the Life Extension Pill, he would have died already.

He said, "Since you know of my Wan Family, you should have heard that we are an Artifact Refining Family. The poison in me was caused by years of Artifact Refining..."

Before he could finish, Mo Wangchen seemed to think of something, "Fire Poison?!"

Alchemists wielded Alchemy Fire, while Artifact Refiners had Artifact Fire, but unlike Alchemists, Artifact Fire was much more fierce and volatile, and years of Artifact Refining inevitably affected one’s body.

Generally speaking, Fire Poison cases are also rare among Alchemists, occurring in less than one out of a hundred.

But for Artifact Refiners, their Artifact Fire being more agitated raised the Fire Poison rate to one in ten.

Wan Quan, being the old Clan Leader of the Wan Family, had built the family’s standing in Yunge City, making it one of the five powerful families, at great personal cost, so his susceptibility to Artifact Fire Poison was even higher.

"You also know about Fire Poison?" Elder Ling and Wan Quan were both surprised by Mo Wangchen’s words.

Typically, someone wouldn’t know of Fire Poison unless they had been deep in Alchemy Dao or the path of refining for many years, and how could Mo Wangchen know at his current age?

"I’ve heard some tales..."

Mo Wangchen nodded, offering no further explanation, then without bothering if Wan Quan would consent, he placed a finger on Wan Quan’s wrist to check his pulse.

Seeing this, Wan Quan and Elder Ling glanced at each other, both showing surprise.

After a moment, Mo Wangchen frowned, "Senior, the Fire Poison has deeply penetrated, accumulated over the years, lethal!"

"Do you have any solutions?"

Suddenly, Elder Ling asked Mo Wangchen.

Though unfamiliar with Mo Wangchen’s Alchemy Dao Skill’s extent, if he could produce an Alchemy Recipe like the Life Extension Pill and knew of Fire Poison, perhaps he might have a solution.

But after the words left his mouth, Elder Ling shook his head with a bitter smile, given his own years of vain Fire Poison research, how could Mo Wangchen resolve it?

Yet, unexpectedly, Mo Wangchen paused, then lightly said, "I do, but it might not be easy to solve..."
