When Leaves started to refine the pill, her whole body and spirit seemed to have been refreshed. It was as if she had become a completely different person.

Even the faint trace of ridicule on his face had disappeared.

"Gather Fire!"

After a moment of silence, countless rays of light shot out from the bottom of the Mysterious Tier Pill Furnace, illuminating the faces of those around it.

Soon after, the flames gathered together, forming a bright spot of light.

"Master Heartless, please make a move. Help me suppress the spiritual energy ripples so that Qin Xiao won't suspect anything."

Ye Feng had a solemn expression. He didn't even turn his head around and directly made a request.

"Ridiculous! Ye Feng, what kind of status do you have? How can you speak to Master Heartless like that?" Xie Chen furrowed his brows and stared at his forehead.

He had partic.i.p.ated in the compet.i.tion between Ye Feng and Liu Bingqian, and he had always resented the ambiguous relations.h.i.+p between Ye Feng and Liu Bingqian.

"Xie Chen, step back and do as he says," Qin Jue said coldly as he glared at Xie Chen.

"But …" Xie Chen was stunned for a moment as he looked at his Master in disbelief. She clearly wanted to push out Ye Feng just a moment ago.

Qin Jue didn't care about what he thought and turned to face the crowd. A cold expression appeared on his pretty face.

"Tracking down the fugitive is a matter of pride for the Celestial Sect of Wonders. If they want to question Ye Feng, don't worry. Once he fails the pill forging process, you can scold him however you like."

As the sound of his voice faded …

A hint of coldness could be seen on her charming eyebrows as she immediately took action.

"If you guys follow me now, let's attack together!"

Then, streams of dark grey light sprinkled all around them like a thick, transparent coc.o.o.n, wrapping their spiritual qi inside.

"This... "Alright," Xie Chen's expression froze. Hearing Qin Juexin's words, he could only sigh and bite the bullet. He braced himself and followed Qin Juexin's lead.

"Ye Feng, the Spiritual Qi Ripples have been suppressed. You can focus on concocting pills. As long as you can concoct Soul Searching Pills, I can turn a blind eye to your previous actions."

"Many thanks."

Ye Feng smiled faintly. Naturally, he did not expect Qin Jue to help him too much. He only needed the most basic of protection.

He concentrated for a moment, and when he opened his eyes, his gaze fell on the pill furnace.

Without worries, he could concoct pills with all his might.

In the next moment, he constantly extracted herbs from the ring, his expression extremely focused.

Not long after, bundles of medicinal herbs were taken out from the ring and placed in front of everyone.

"Ugh …" The Ghost Gra.s.s, Smiling Face Fruit, and the Polar Aurora Vine that were used to refine the Soulsearch Pill … "

The temperature of the furnace was just right. Every time he picked a medicinal ingredient, he would throw it into the furnace without any hesitation.

The disciples of the Celestial Sect of Wonders looked at each other in dismay.

"Hey, hey, look at Daoist Master Ye's side. The herbs are piled up as high as a small mountain …" "We are here to arrest a fugitive. In the end, we are still here to partic.i.p.ate in the Pill Compet.i.tion."

"Isn't that so … "It's fine that you brought so many medicinal ingredients. But look carefully, there are many medicinal ingredients here that are quite expensive."

"What do you mean by 'not cheap'? Is it worth thousands of gold coins?"

Yao Chong was a little confused and asked doubtfully.

"Nonsense, from the looks of it, it's more than ten thousand gold coins. Who knows, it might require at least twenty thousand gold coins." Wei Tianfeng let out a breath of cold air, his face turning serious as he spoke.

Even if he was unable to refine them, at the very least, he could roughly estimate the value of these medicinal herbs.

"What? More than 20,000 gold coins? I really didn't know that Daoist Master Ye was actually so rich." Everyone widened their eyes as they inwardly exclaimed.

In the hearts of most people, a person who had just ascended to the next rank did not have much acc.u.mulated knowledge. How could he possibly have so many gold coins to use to buy medicinal herbs?

Han Yue smiled as she scanned the people around her.

"Ye Feng, you really have a plan. Obviously, you can only get so much gold by selling off all of them. However, even now, they still don't know about it."

"One thousand three hundred gold coins for a disciple of the Celestial Sect of Wonders …"

This was the deal between Ye Feng and Gu Shenwei, and was also his way of making money.

Ye Feng smiled and raised his head …

"Hanyue, stop saying these useless things. You and the demon fox, quickly come and help me."

"Help you, how can I help you?"

The Demon Fox's heart trembled. She laughed and said, "We are not Liu Bingqian. We don't have the Fire Martial Spirit, so we can't help you refine pills. What can we do for you?"

When she mentioned the matter of refining pills, she put on a look of helplessness.

"That's not necessarily true. Refining the Soulsearch Pill requires a large amount of calculations. I can't spend too much time and effort on the fire. Think of a way to control it, that's all."

As soon as he finished speaking, his face turned serious.

He withdrew the blood-colored flame in his hand and leaped onto the pill furnace, continuously scattering spiritual energy on the star platform and guiding the medicinal strength of the pill.

"Wait a moment, we …"

When the Demon fox heard this, she s.h.i.+vered and felt a chill in her heart.

She had never partic.i.p.ated in the pill refining process in her entire life.

"Hurry up." Ye Feng didn't say what to do, he only said the conclusion.

The Demon Fox and Han Yue looked at each other, somewhat stunned.

The next moment, the fire under the pill furnace suddenly became strong.

"Whatever, let's start."

Han Yue and the demon fox's expressions tightened at the same time. They hurriedly took action and entered a cold and sinister aura. Only then did they manage to control the fire power of the pill furnace to its original level.

With this experience, they were no longer restrained and managed to suppress the fire several times.

"Huff …"

Because this was their first time concocting pills, they were especially serious about it. They had a certain understanding of Liu Bingqian's pill refining abilities.

After an unknown period of time …

They were already gradually getting used to controlling the fire, and a look of relief gradually appeared on their faces.

"Ye Feng, how is it? We can control the fire, can we?"

However, they did not receive any reply to their question.

What was even more strange was that the people around him had also fallen into silence.

"Ye Feng, you …"

The demon fox was puzzled. She raised her head and looked at the top of the pill furnace.

Suddenly, her expression changed.

The five-colored smoke continuously swirled above the furnace, releasing a strange, dazzling l.u.s.ter.

The stars on the surface of the Xuan grade furnace continued to connect and form a line.

z The rise of air,

This was the prerequisite for the completion of the pill.

Everyone held their breath. Even Qin Juexin's eyes flickered slightly as she stared at the pill furnace for a moment.

"Ye Feng, can you really concoct such a pill?"

Ye Feng stared at the cauldron. Finally, his expression lit up. He didn't want to be suspenseful, so he lifted the lid without saying a word.

A bright ray of light, mixed with a pure black l.u.s.ter, emerged from the pill furnace.

It was exactly because the top of the furnace had been opened that the pressure inside and outside the furnace had been different. It was almost at the next moment when the lid had been lifted …

An incomparably black pearl with a dark red swirl suddenly flew out of the pill furnace.

"Dark red l.u.s.ter, Xuan grade pellet, could this be …." "A Mysterious rank Soulsearch Pill," Wei Tianfeng blurted out in shock.

Ye Feng didn't care about him. His eyes were filled with a bright light. He quickly jumped up, stretched out his hand, and grabbed the bead.

Upon seeing this, the other students did not care about their face anymore as they all surrounded him, taking a few steps forward and watching from the sidelines.

"How is it, Spiritual Master Ye? Let go of my hand and let us see the quality of that pill."

"That's right. Let us see if it's a success or not."

Because the Soulsearch Pill was incredibly fast, most people could only see the shadow of the pill as it flew through the air. They couldn't even see its full appearance.

Thus, it was normal for them to have this question.

Ye Wen nodded with a smile. He did not want to be suspenseful and immediately spread out his hands.

"Everyone, don't worry. The Soulsearch Pill has been successfully refined."

It was an extremely colorful, s.h.i.+ny, and pitch-black pill.

Even an ignorant person could tell that not only had the Soul Searching Pill been successfully refined, it had been especially well done.

"To refine this Soulsearch Pill within the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, I, Ye Feng, will do as I say and will not go back on my words."

The thunderous voice lingered in the hearts of everyone for a long time like a clap of thunder.

Ye Feng looked up seriously, "Master Heartless, I hope you remember what I said before. Actually, I don't ask you to change your opinion on me …" "I only hope that this time, we will work closely together in the hunt for Qin Xiao."

Qin Jue's expression froze. His gaze slowly s.h.i.+fted from the Soul Searching Pill to Ye Feng.

She smiled knowingly and nodded.

"Ok, Ye Feng, you fought for this chance, I can promise you that."

Upon seeing this, Xie Chen could not stand to watch. He coldly said, "Wait, master Heartless, whether or not this Soulsearch Pill has been successfully refined cannot be judged solely by its appearance. It has to be seen whether or not it is effective.

"From what I see, that idiot should be you, Xie Chen." Although Qin Jue didn't really like Ye Feng, he was still magnanimous. He wouldn't be vague about what praises he should give.

Ye Feng smiled and nodded, "Since there is someone who suspects so much, I am afraid you are not the only one. As for the effects of the Soul Searching Pill …"

He slowly walked a few steps toward Feng Mo.

"Everyone, you will understand once you see it."

After that, he opened her lips with one hand and fed her this Soulsearch Pill to her ….
