Yang Chen nodded thoughtfully. He didn’t have any particular resentment towards the Yang family. After all, his previous self being so useless was his own fault, and the Yang family couldn’t be blamed. However, he really admired Elder Yang’s integrity.

Elder Yang said, “So the reward given to you is not from me alone but from the resources I represent on behalf of the Yang family. And you, don’t let me down on my expectations of you.”

“Second Master, Yang Chen will do his best,” Yang Chen replied.

“Good, young people should have such vigor and vitality. Now try to refine the Clear Flame Pill. Don’t worry, if you can’t succeed in one attempt, there will be other chances,” Elder Yang said kindly, having high hopes for Yang Chen.

Yang Chen didn’t waste any more time and sat down in front of the alchemy furnace, imitating Elder Yang’s method to refine the Clear Flame Pill.

With his experience and comprehension, it was a breeze for him to imitate Elder Yang’s alchemy technique. It was like an adult imitating a child, simply too easy.

Indeed, in terms of age, Yang Chen might not be more than Elder Yang in both his past and present lives, but in terms of alchemy skills and level, Elder Yang was simply unmatched.

His display of such alchemy skills truly left Elder Yang dumbfounded.

Yang Chen had actually learned his alchemy technique, exactly the same.

Even some of the most intricate finger movements were used with striking resemblance.

How…

How incredible is this comprehension?

“Unbelievable, unbelievable,” Elder Yang thought, his heart filled with shock.

However, this was just the beginning.

As he continued to watch, he widened his eyes, unable to believe what he saw was true.

The more advanced the alchemy process, the more complicated the methods and steps required. Refining elixirs could be exhausting for the mind and spirit.

Mind and spirit, a combination of energy and mental strength.

One needs energy to work, and even more to perform alchemy, which consumes a lot of mental strength.

This also indirectly shows how complex the alchemy process is. To learn it is very difficult and not something to be achieved in a single day.

Elder Yang had high expectations for Yang Chen’s comprehension, but he thought that Yang Chen would need at least seven or eight attempts to refine a Clear Flame Pill.

If that were the case, he would be overjoyed.

However, he never expected…

Yang Chen had actually learned his technique perfectly, without any differences. If Yang Chen continued with this momentum, he might succeed in refining the Clear Flame Pill on his first attempt.

“What…”

Elder Yang was dumbfounded, finding it difficult to imagine it was true.

Now it had reached the most challenging stage, but Yang Chen was still refining smoothly. The meticulous steps, the dazzling details, Yang Chen seemed to grasp perfectly. There wasn’t a single mistake, as if his alchemy technique had been etched into Yang Chen’s mind.

“Bang!”

Suddenly, the alchemy furnace opened, and a condensed elixir, propelled by the force of the furnace, leaped out from within.

With quick reflexes, Yang Chen caught the pill.

He wiped his sweat. For him, imitating Elder Yang’s refining technique and ensuring that there was only a slight deviation in detail and that a Clear Flame Pill was produced at the end was challenging. Anyone else would have collapsed under such a complicated process.

However, there’s nothing he could do. After all, he couldn’t reveal his original alchemy techniques. Otherwise, Elder Yang would be completely dumbfounded, and there would be no explanation. Should he claim that he created them himself?

As he pondered, Elder Yang had already sprung up from his chair.

He could hardly believe his eyes, looking at the Clear Flame Pill in shock, his heart overwhelmed with emotions.

With just one attempt, Yang Chen had refined a Clear Flame Pill.

What…

Elder Yang grabbed Yang Chen’s arm, tears streaming down his face, “Hahaha, that’s great, Yang Chen, Yang Chen. I’ve waited too long for you. Do you know how long I’ve been holding on to the foundation of the Yang family’s alchemy lineage? What I desperately needed was a good seedling, and you are that seedling I’ve been waiting for.”

For a clan to rise, the key lies in the next generation.

When it came to alchemy, the Yang family was indeed supported by Elder Yang alone. What he most wanted to see was someone who could take over and support the Yang family’s alchemy lineage after he got old.

“Focus on learning alchemy without distractions. With time, you will certainly become a top alchemy master, even surpassing me,” he said.

Yang Chen chuckled, “Second Master, you’re overpraising me.”

“No, not at all. Refining a Clear Flame Pill with just one attempt is a feat that even the alchemy geniuses of the major clans cannot achieve. Yang Chen, you are truly the number one alchemy genius I’ve ever seen!” Elder Yang said without exaggeration, his emotions running high.

He had been to the flourishing lands outside the Great Wilderness.

Indeed, the geniuses outside the Great Wilderness were much better than those within.

But such a freakishly talented individual like Yang Chen, who could learn his alchemy technique after watching it only twice and succeed in refining a Clear Flame Pill on his first attempt, was the first of his kind he had encountered. Even those top geniuses from the outside world would need at least four or five tries to discern all the details.

They were already considered geniuses among geniuses. Upon entering major alchemy sects, they were bound to be highly sought-after. But Yang Chen needed only two attempts!

Little did he know, in his previous life, Yang Chen was always able to learn someone’s alchemy techniques after watching just once.

He had successfully learned from countless alchemy Grandmasters without their knowledge, which was one of the reasons for his rise to fame. Because no one else could learn another’s alchemy techniques after one attempt, even under the scrutiny of anti-theft measures, let alone refine the elixirs.

However, in this life, Yang Chen didn’t dare to be too high-profile. Yet he still underestimated his alchemy talent from his past life. Even twice was enough to leave Elder Yang speechless with shock.

At this moment, Elder Yang said with trembling excitement, “Yang Chen, I will take you to see the Clan Leader now. With such talent, it would be a crime if you are not appreciated and recognized by the family. You are only thirteen years old and have already become a Grade 1 high-rank Alchemist, not to mention your astonishing comprehension. The rise of the Yang family is hopeful.”

With that, Elder Yang directly dragged Yang Chen to report the matter to the Clan Leader.

For him, the most important thing now was to inform the Yang family that Yang Chen was a rare Alchemy Genius and the hope for the family’s future alchemy.

What nonsense about Yang Chen being useless and unambitious,
