Chapter 022 The Seven Treasures Qi Condensation Powder

Feng Wuchen did not speak, for his meaning had already been conveyed, no need for further words.

"The Qingyuan Pill goes to the Feng family," Yu Wanxiong's voice sounded.

Zhang Han then sent both the Fiery Blade and the Qingyuan Pill to the private room, respectfully handing them over to Feng Wuchen.

The hall was very quiet, as if gusts of chilling wind were blowing through, instilling fear in everyone and making their hair stand on end.

Those with less courage had already panic-strickenly left the hall, and the weaker families hurriedly followed suit.

About ten minutes later, the hall had become desolate, with only the Feng family remaining.

Yu Wanxiong arrived at the private room where Feng Wuchen was, who took the initiative to say, "Pavilion Master Yu, thank you for your assistance. We'll put the Gold Coins for the Fiery Blade and Qingyuan Pill on a tab; I will repay you as soon as possible."

Feng Zhengxiong and the others looked at Feng Wuchen in surprise, 7.6 million was not a small sum, and from Feng Wuchen's words, it was clear he intended to repay it himself.

Was that possible? Where would Feng Wuchen get so many Gold Coins?

Shaking his head slightly, Yu Wanxiong chuckled and said, "Young Master Feng, you are being too polite. I am already greatly indebted to you for removing the fire toxin from me."

Yu Wanxiong had his own motives; if he had not needed something from Feng Wuchen, he probably wouldn't have agreed.

After some casual chatting, the Feng family also left the Wanbao Pavilion.

"Pavilion Master, do you think the Feng family can really repay the 7.6 million Gold Coins?" Zhang Han asked cautiously.

Yu Wanxiong pondered for a moment before saying, "The Feng family might not manage, but Feng Wuchen certainly can. That young man is too mysterious."

...

Upon returning to the Feng family, the matter of the debt worried Feng Zhengxiong and Xiao Qingqing enormously, causing them distress, as even selling the entire Feng family wouldn't be enough to cover it.

Fortunately, Yu Wanxiong needed Feng Wuchen and hence wouldn't come to collect the debt.

"Younger brother, you were too impulsive! That old fox Mo Kun was obviously driving up the price on purpose. You shouldn't have competed with him," Feng Yuan said helplessly. It was too late for regrets now.

With a faint smile and not a word, Feng Wuchen didn't show the slightest sense of crisis.

Xiao Qingqing's face was anxious, her words tinged with blame, "7.6 million, where are we, the Feng family, going to find such an amount?"

"Aunt Xiao need not worry. Brother Feng will surely have a way," Ling Xiaoxiao said with a reassuring smile.

"Ah..." Xiao Qingqing sighed helplessly, knowing that anything she said now was too late.

Feng Zhengxiong smiled indifferently, "My lady, acquiring treasures like the Fiery Blade and the Qingyuan Pill could make our Feng family much stronger. Why the sighs of despair?"

As the Family Head, Feng Zhengxiong was rather optimistic, facing everything with equanimity.

"Wuchen, I have watched you grow up and know your temperament well. If you didn't have a plan, you would never do this," Feng Qianyang said to Feng Wuchen with a serious expression.

"Bring me a brush," Feng Wuchen said with a light smile.

Xiaolan quickly brought over the ink and bamboo slips, with Feng Zhengxiong and the others looking at Feng Wuchen curiously.

At such a time, why was Feng Wuchen in the mood for calligraphy or painting? Or was he ever really seen engaging in these arts? What was he planning to do?

Feng Zhengxiong, Xiao Qingqing, and Feng Qianyang gathered around to see what was happening.

Feng Wuchen picked up the brush and swiftly wrote on the bamboo slip, his strokes bold and powerful, executed in one go.

At first, they didn't know what Feng Wuchen was writing, but after seeing the first few characters, their expressions changed dramatically, and they were dumbstruck.

"This is..." Feng Qianyang was the most shocked, his face in awe, his body stiffened, and his eyes nearly popping out.

Feng Wuchen finished writing and smiled, "The solution is this."

Feng Zhengxiong and the others continued to stare at the bamboo slip in shock, as if they hadn't heard Feng Wuchen's voice, still unable to react.

Even Ling Xiaoxiao was now looking astonished.

"Seventh Grade Qi Condensing Powder!" After a long while, Feng Qianyang was the first to recover, unable to restrain an exclamation.

"Wuchen, is this... is this a prescription?" Feng Zhengxiong asked in shock.

Indeed, what Feng Wuchen had written on the bamboo slip was the prescription for Seventh Grade Qi Condensing Powder, detailing the required medicinal herbs and their dosages very precisely.

Feng Wuchen said with a smile, "Correct, it is a prescription. The Seventh Grade Qi Condensing Powder can help those in the Qi Refining Realm increase their cultivation speed, and its efficacy is more than ten times stronger than the Enhancing Qi Powder refined by the Great Elder!"

"What? More than ten times stronger?" Feng Qianyang almost dropped his jaw in shock.

"Wuchen, are you making this up? You're not an Alchemist, how could you have a prescription?" Xiao Qingqing asked incredulously, feeling as if Feng Wuchen was making it up just to fool them.

After taking a closer look, Feng Qianyang was even more astounded, "This isn't made up. Good heavens, this prescription is simply perfect to the extreme, the dosage for each herb incredibly precise, and these herbs are quite common. How did I never think of this?"

"What? It's not made up?" Xiao Qingqing and the others were shocked anew.

What the hell was going on? How did Feng Wuchen come by that prescription? And he remembered it so clearly, without missing a single word!

Reflecting on Feng Wuchen's astonishing performance over the past month, Feng Zhengxiong grew more and more uneasy and urgently questioned him, "Chen Er, answer me honestly, where did you get that formula from? And those miraculous techniques, how did you acquire those? What in the world is going on?"

At this point, it was impossible to keep hiding the truth.

Feng Wuchen smiled slightly and said, "Father, actually, a month ago, I met a master who said I have an exceptional talent for alchemy, so he took me as his disciple, taught me those miraculous techniques, and guided me in my cultivation. The prescription is from him too."

"A master? Took you as his disciple?" Everyone, including Feng Zhengxiong, was greatly astonished.

"Mhm, he is also an alchemist, and very powerful at that, capable of flying to the heavens and burrowing into the earth," Feng Wuchen nodded, making up the details as he spoke.

"Then where is your master now? How come you didn't tell us about such an important matter? We mustn't neglect your master!" Feng Zhengxiong hurriedly inquired, knowing a master like that could not be treated lightly.

Watching Feng Zhengxiong's anxious demeanor, Feng Wuchen couldn't help but chuckle inwardly, though he said aloud, "Father, my master doesn't like to make a big show and has a bad temper. I wouldn't have mentioned it if it weren't absolutely necessary."

"Indeed, the temper of a high-grade alchemist can be quite peculiar, no wonder your cultivation has advanced so swiftly. With such an esteemed figure offering guidance, everything makes sense now," Feng Qianyang nodded.

"That's great! Who would have thought Chen Er had a master of such high standing!" Xiao Qingqing said joyfully, implying that Feng Wuchen's future was limitless.

Handing over the bamboo slip to Feng Qianyang, Feng Wuchen continued, "Family Head, my master said that no one in the entire Mainland knows how to concoct the Seven Treasures Qi Condensing Powder. After you've committed it to memory, destroy it. With this formula, our Feng family will soon become powerful and we can even sell it to pay off the debt to Wanbao Pavilion in no time."

As he finished speaking, Feng Wuchen picked up the writing brush and swiftly jotted down on the bamboo slip without hesitation.

"This is... the Alchemy Decision!" Feng Qianyang gasped, his body trembling with shock.

They have the Alchemy Decision? Feng Zhengxiong and the others were overjoyed.

"Family Head, this is the Alchemy Decision left by my master. If you practice it, you will soon become a Second Grade alchemist, and my master also said this Alchemy Decision will help you reach Sixth Grade. Remember to destroy it after memorizing," Feng Wuchen said with a smile.

"A Sixth Grade alchemist!" The very thought made Feng Zhengxiong and the others tremble all over.

The position of a Sixth Grade alchemist was extremely revered, with not a single one throughout the Fiery Flame Empire, let alone on the Mainland, where they were an awe-inspiring presence.

"Excellent, excellent!" Feng Qianyang beamed with joy, tremendously excited.

"It seems the heavens want to prosper our Feng family!" Second Elder Feng Yunshan said, his old eyes glistening with emotion.

"Chen Er, the sales rights you got from Wanbao Pavilion, was it because you planned to sell the Seven Treasures Qi Condensing Powder?" Feng Zhengxiong guessed.

"That's right, everyone in Unmatched City can buy it, but not the Yang family or the Mo family! But now is not the time," Feng Wuchen responded casually.

"Excellent! You truly are my son, Feng Zhengxiong! Haha! Our Feng family is going to flourish!" Feng Zhengxiong laughed heartily with joy.

Once the Seven Treasures Qi Condensing Powder is sold in large quantities, what are a meager few million Gold Coins?

And besides, only the Feng family possess the formula on the entire Mainland—a proprietary formula!

While it simply helps Qi Refining Realm cultivators increase their cultivation speed, it's definitely in high demand!

The Mainland doesn't lack for powerhouses, nor does it lack cultivators in the Qi Refining Realm; on the contrary, they are too numerous to count!

Once the Seven Treasures Qi Condensing Powder becomes available, it will be the Feng family's time to soar!

"Feng Brother, it seems you've planned this all along," Ling Xiaoxiao murmured with a low laugh beside Feng Wuchen's ear.

Feng Wuchen just smiled slightly and remained silent.

"Chen Er, it's not often one meets such a high-ranked master, you must practice diligently and not disappoint your master's high hopes!" Feng Zhengxiong instructed, too excited to hide his agitation.

"Don't worry, father," replied Feng Wuchen with a smile, knowing he would have practiced hard even without Feng Zhengxiong's urging.

Only stepping into the Qi Refining Realm would make him a true martial artist, and it is within the Qi Refining Realm that one may have a chance to comprehend the True Qi of attributes.

Seeing his family so happy, Feng Wuchen felt very content himself.

After all, being happy is better than anything else in life.

"It looks like I need to make a breakthrough into the Qi Refining Realm soon; it's so inconvenient without True Qi," Feng Wuchen thought to himself.

"I must hurry and concoct the Seven Treasures Qi Condensing Powder! However, wealth should not be flaunted; otherwise, it will bring trouble to the Feng family. It's better not to sell the Seven Treasures Qi Condensing Powder for now," Feng Qianyang spoke up.

"Mhm!" Feng Zhengxiong nodded gravely and sternly added, "The matter of the Seven Treasures Qi Condensing Powder must not be revealed by anyone, or they will face our family's discipline!"

Though the Seven Treasures Qi Condensing Powder is a low-grade powder, for Unmatched City, it is an absolute treasure—even for the Empire, it's considered extremely precious!

As Feng Wuchen had said before, no one in the entire Mainland could concoct it.

The Seven Treasures Qi Condensing Powder is many times more powerful than ordinary Qi enhancing powders; one can only imagine the terrifying speed of cultivation for Qi Refining Realm cultivators who take it!

Who knows how many will go mad over it when the time comes.

And for Feng Wuchen, his journey truly began with the Seven Treasures Qi Condensing Powder!

The memories and vast experience of the Evil Dragon God would gradually reveal themselves through Feng Wuchen, and the Seven Treasures Qi Condensing Powder was just the tip of the iceberg.
