Chapter 18 Five-Star Dou Zong
"You seem a little different today?" Medusa felt something different about Han Cheng as soon as she went out.

I can’t explain what the specific difference is, but it’s that kind of feeling that makes her feel very real, and makes people subconsciously want to get closer?

"Maybe I'm in a good mood today, and I made a small breakthrough." Han Cheng smiled and went to receive the last medicinal ingredient.

Another breakthrough?
Medusa looked at Han Cheng's back and was stunned for a moment. She didn't understand much about this evil world.

Arriving at the auction, Ya Fei handed the herbs to Han Cheng and said, "President Zhuoma wants to invite you to be the judge of the Alchemist Conference in a year. What do you think, brother?"

"A year later? I'll see how the situation goes. But I don't think I'll be able to make it. I'll have to go back to the academy to practice in two months at most." Han Cheng shook his head. It was too long a time. It was impossible for him to stay in the Gama Empire for more than a year.

However, considering that President Zhongma was so straightforward before, and...

"I should be able to take a leave and come back during the Alchemist Conference. Sister Yafei, just tell her that I agree." Hearing Han Cheng's affirmative answer, a smile broke out on Yafei's face.

"Thank you, brother."

"We are brother and sister, haha." Han Cheng smiled and took out a list of medicinal herbs.

A quarter of an hour later, Han Cheng took a pile of medicinal herbs and prepared to verify his own self-created medicine recipe.

If successful, Han Cheng won't have to worry about money for a long time in the future.

In the bamboo forest, Han Cheng finished his meditation and started to refine the elixir.

Medusa has swept away her previous lazy temperament, and she looks like a beautiful snake that is always ready to strike. Once there is danger, she will give the invader a head-on blow!

Four hours later, the rich fragrance of the elixir was trapped in the small courtyard. After a series of tinkling sounds, Han Cheng came out with a small jade bottle containing the Rongling Pill.

"Queen, try to see if it works. If not, I will go back to school and look for it in the teacher's collection, or use the Royal Extreme Pill to offer a reward for the soul-related pill recipe in the Black Horn Region."

"Thank you, Han Cheng."

"You're welcome, Queen."

Watching Medusa return to the bamboo building to meditate, Han Cheng also began to take out the pill recipe he had prepared in the past few days and started simulation verification.

Just after taking a look, Han Cheng suddenly thought of a more interesting operation.

"Perhaps, my recipe can be divided into two."

The upgrade of soul power has made Han Cheng's thinking more flexible, and the things that had been bothering him before now have better solutions.

"One is a fifth-grade elixir, and the other is a sixth-grade elixir. Hehe, is this not enough to pay for the gold coins in your hands?" Han Cheng stroked his smooth chin, only then did he realize that he had not started to grow a beard yet.

It might be because he broke through to the Dou Wang level and his advanced cultivation increased his vitality, keeping his body youthful.

Regardless of all that, Han Cheng started to refine the elixir, which he regarded as a precious elixir that was a money trap.

Three days later, Han Cheng stretched his body, felt the seven-star Dou Wang cultivation that he had just broken through, and sighed.

"I really want to practice in the Tianfen Refining Qi Tower. The practice speed is fast, and the fighting spirit is very condensed. More importantly, I only need to spend one day's fire energy to use more than ten days or even dozens of days of heart fire..."

Looking at the nine fifth-grade pills in the ring, Han Cheng was confident that he could earn 10 million gold coins.

Well, it should be possible. There should be quite a few forces in the Gama Empire that can afford fifth-grade elixirs.

"But it doesn't matter. Let's take out one to test the waters and see what the response is." Han Cheng thought that according to the purchasing power in the market, women should be the strongest, and this kind of pill is specifically for women, especially women who love beauty, so there should be no need to worry about the market.

After returning from the auction, Han Cheng recalled the fiery look in Sister Yafei's eyes when she saw the pill, and he knew that his design must have been successful.

As soon as he walked into the yard, Han Cheng noticed the red figure next to the pond.

"Looking at the queen, has the soul fusion been successful?" Han Cheng sensed Medusa's deep and heavy aura, and knew that she had gained a lot of benefits after this soul fusion.

"Thanks to your medicine, I have made some breakthroughs." Medusa looked at Han Cheng with a smile, as if waiting for something.

Han Cheng naturally knew what she was waiting for, so he asked, "Oh? I wonder how powerful the queen is now?"

"Almost a five-star Dou Zong, right? Do you want me to help you kill anyone?" The three sentences were all about her old job. Medusa had had enough rest.

“I still have more than four years to reach the five-star Dou Zong level, or almost five years. By then, you should be able to reach around seven or eight-star Dou Zong. But considering the powerful bloodline of the Seven-Colored Sky-Swallowing Python that goes straight to the Dou Saint, if the resources are sufficient, then there is hope of breaking through to the Dou Zun level.” Han Cheng thought of this, and the smile on his face became a lot warmer.

"Hey, what are you doing? You look weird." Medusa was a little alert and suddenly remembered what Han Cheng said before that he would do something bad to her.

But she soon let down her guard again. Han Cheng was so polite to her when she was in bad condition before. Now that she is in good condition and her strength has greatly increased, it should be impossible for him to do anything stupid, right?
"There's no need to kill anyone for now. I just want to ask the Queen if she needs any training resources?"

"Cultivation resources? At this level of Five-Star Dou Zong, the sixth-grade elixir can no longer help, unless it is the seventh-grade elixir."

Han Cheng seemed insulted when he felt Medusa's gaze looking down on him.

"Just tell me if you want it or not."

"If there is, of course I'll take it, but you can't make any excessive requests~"

"..." Han Cheng sighed helplessly. Medusa's strength had improved and she started to tease him.

"It's still the same as before. Protect my personal safety, but it will take a little longer."

"Okay, then I'll wait for you, brother~" The hot red lips left a mark on Han Cheng's forehead. Looking at the boy who had not yet reacted, Medusa left with a smug smile.

It seemed like a long time had passed. Han Cheng shook his head with a complicated expression, sat by the pond and began to practice his fighting spirit.

After eating a Earth Fire Lotus Seed, Han Cheng rapidly devoured the energy of heaven and earth under the sunlight.

Early in the morning of the second day, Han Cheng came to the royal family. The peak Douhuang master Jia Xingtian personally went out to greet him and showed the greatest respect to the sixth-grade alchemist.

Jia Xingtian has always wanted to get in touch with Han Cheng, the sixth-rank alchemist, but unfortunately he has always lived in seclusion.

The royal family had spent a lot of time and effort collecting the medicinal materials for the Rongling Pill.

Now that Han Cheng came to his house, Jia Xingtian felt that the royal family’s previous efforts were not in vain.

"Master Han Cheng is so young. I couldn't believe it at first. He is truly an outstanding person. I admire him very much."

After taking his seat, Jia Xingtian looked at Han Cheng's face, which looked even younger than his great-granddaughter, and sighed.

The first idea that popped into his mind was marriage alliance. He would try to win over the women in the royal family even if he had to give them all.
