The Sword God of the Universe

The young martial artist was quite fortunate; they waited less than half an hour before the grand entrance of the Radiant Pill Store slowly opened.

The many Dao Emperor Realm Practitioners outside all rushed in at once.

Jing Yan stood at the counter in the room, distributing the elixirs he had refined, one by one, to the martial artists who had commissioned his alchemy.

Once the distribution of the elixirs ended, new commissions were immediately proposed, with several Dao Emperor Realm practitioners quickly presenting their prepared materials to Jing Yan and specifying the elixirs they needed, fearing that if they moved too slowly, they would only be able to wait until the next opportunity.

The young martial artist dressed in luxurious clothes, however, did not rush to speak; he simply observed Jing Yan carefully. While outside, he had heard that the owner of the Radiant Pill Store looked very young, but at that time, it didn’t seem important. Now seeing Jing Yan in person, he too was secretly shocked. The store owner was indeed extremely young!

"Does this customer wish to commission me to refine a pill?"

The other martial artists who entered the store either took their elixirs and left or commissioned alchemy and then left the store to wait outside.

Only the finely-dressed young martial artist and his four followers remained inside, which is why Jing Yan turned to inquire of the man.

Jing Yan naturally noticed that the identity of this young warrior in luxurious clothing was no small matter; his four followers were all Dao Emperor Realm strong practitioners. To know, when Chi Shui, the building owner from the Three Heroes Pill Tower, came over, the followers by his side were only the Dao King Realm Cultivation.

"Indeed, I would like to request the gentleman’s help in refining a certain elixir, the Golden Silk Red Cloud Pill. I wonder if the gentleman might be capable of refining this pill?" the young martial artist asked with a smile, looking at Jing Yan.

The Golden Silk Red Cloud Pill was a special kind of elixir, and on the Heavenly Origin Continent, its pill formula had been long lost. Even in the Despair Abyss, it was feared that no one would know the method for its refinement.

Upon hearing that the individual wished to refine the Golden Silk Red Cloud Pill, Jing Yan’s brows slightly moved and then he nodded, "If the guest can provide the materials for the Golden Silk Red Cloud Pill, then I am able to refine it. However, since the Golden Red Cloud Pill is a special elixir, only one pill can be formed per batch, so the guest must provide four times the materials to obtain one Golden Silk Red Cloud Pill."

"You can refine the Golden Silk Red Cloud Pill?" a follower questioned.

"Young Master, even the Yixian Dan God cannot refine this pill, can this man do it? He’s probably just speaking off the cuff," the follower then said to the young martial artist.

He referred to the Yixian Dan God, who was the most famous ninth-grade Pill Master throughout the entire Tianxia Divine Domain.

Jing Yan maintained a smile on his face. If these people could provide enough materials, then of course Jing Yan would refine the elixir they needed for them. If these people did not believe in him, that was fine too. After all, his fame had surged significantly, he took many commissioned alchemy tasks, and he wasn’t short of this single commission.

The gaze of the young martial artist towards Jing Yan became intense.

He certainly had not expected Jing Yan to say he could refine the Golden Silk Red Cloud Pill. The reason he had proposed commissioning such a pill was not that he had much confidence in Jing Yan; it was more of a casual suggestion. Of course, he did indeed need a Golden Silk Red Cloud Pill, not for himself but for his mother.

His mother, who had been afflicted by a peculiar poison decades ago which damaged her Divine Soul, could only be cured by the Golden Silk Red Cloud Pill. However, in the entire Tianxia Divine Domain, there was no one capable of refining the Golden Silk Red Cloud Pill, not even the Yixian Dan God. Now, suddenly encountering a Pill Master who claimed he could refine the Golden Silk Red Cloud Pill, it was natural for him to be extremely surprised.

"Are you certain you can refine it, are you confident?" the young martial artist asked earnestly, restraining his turbulent emotions.

"With four sets of ingredients, I can guarantee you one Perfect Quality Golden Silk Red Cloud Pill," Jing Yan didn’t want to waste words.

"Good!" responded the young martial artist, forthright, "Please tell me, what specific ingredients are needed for the Golden Silk Red Cloud Pill?"

"Young Master..." a follower anxiously wanted to advise.

The young martial artist’s eyes narrowed, and his attendant immediately shut his mouth, daring not to say anything more.

Jing Yan listed all the materials needed for the elixir, not missing a single one of the rare materials, while the more common ones didn’t matter much.

The young martial artist had all the materials Jing Yan asked for on him and immediately took them all out, even giving some extra rare materials. As long as Jing Yan could refine the Golden Silk Red Cloud Pill, he didn’t mind using more materials.

"Sir, may I know how long I will have to wait to receive the elixir?" the young martial artist asked again.

"Err, just wait inside the shop. I’ll prioritize refining your pill, it should take only a few hours," Jing Yan thought for a moment and said.

The young martial artist’s eyes suddenly brightened, then he bowed deeply to express his thanks.

Jing Yan entered the back room, and the young martial artist with his attendant waited in the shop.

"Young Master, do you truly believe this person can refine the Golden Silk Red Cloud Pill?"

"Didn’t you hear what he just said? He guaranteed me a Perfect Quality Golden Silk Red Cloud Pill! We will wait here; surely he can’t just disappear into thin air? If he fails to produce the elixir, I naturally won’t easily let it slide. Moreover, if this man didn’t have some skills, would so many Dao Emperor Realm practitioners entrust him with their alchemy?" the young martial artist said indifferently.

At this moment, he was filled with great anticipation.

If he could obtain a Golden Silk Red Cloud Pill in Rainbow Gown Divine City this time, his journey would not have been in vain.

Three hours later, Jing Yan came out and handed a red elixir with golden stripes to the young martial artist.

"Just like what Yixian Dan God described!" the young martial artist nodded after inspecting the elixir.

Having never seen a real Golden Silk Red Cloud Pill, he couldn’t be completely certain of the elixir’s authenticity. But, having heard from Yixian Dan God about the characteristics of the Golden Silk Red Cloud Pill, the comparison made the pill in his hand match exactly what Yixian Dan God had described.

"Thank you, sir, for the help in refining this elixir," the young martial artist tucked away the pill and bowed deeply in gratitude.

"There’s no need for thanks; I didn’t help you for nothing. Having received the materials from you, it’s only natural to refine the pill," Jing Yan said with a dismissive wave of his hand.

"Regardless, I must express my gratitude, sir. Within the entire Tianxia Divine Domain, perhaps you are the only one who can refine the Golden Silk Red Cloud Pill. This pill is extremely important to both me and my family. By the way, sir, my name is Jiao Zhan, and I come from Cold Winter City!" Jiao Zhan took the opportunity to introduce himself.

"Cold Winter City, the Jiao Family?" Jing Yan raised his eyebrows slightly.

The Jiao Family from Cold Winter City was also a Second Grade Force within the Tianxia Divine Domain, of the same grade as the Rainbow Gown Divine Sect.

So this Jiao Zhan was the Young Master of the Jiao Family; no wonder the four attendants by his side were all Dao Emperor Realm practitioners.

"Exactly!" Jiao Zhan nodded.

"Cold Winter City is quite a distance from Rainbow Gown Divine City, Brother Jiao. What brings you suddenly to this place?" Jing Yan asked.

"A Holy Daughter from the Rainbow Gown Divine Sect is about to be wed, and I have come to join the festivities. Tsk, it does seem a bit of a pity though!" Jiao Zhan said, shaking his head with a sigh.
