These three Earth Lung Fire Veins had been taken from the Ziwei Sect headquarters by the first Valley Master all those years ago.
After the first Valley Master passed away, and as time flowed on, at some point unknown, the secret method for controlling these three Earth Lung Fire Veins had been lost.
Later, these three Earth Lung Fire Veins lay hidden beneath the headquarters of Zidan Valley, serving as the source of flame seeds for all the alchemists within Zidan Valley.
Usually, when the alchemists in Zidan Valley concocted pills, they would generally draw upon these three Earth Lung Fire Veins.
Thus, the pills refined by these Zidan Valley alchemists possessed a unique character, forming a school of their own, and they enjoyed a small measure of renown throughout the entire Eastern Barrens.
Therefore, these three Earth Lung Fire Veins were extremely important to Zidan Valley, being one of its most vital foundational assets!
For an outsider youngster to summon all three of these Earth Lung Fire Veins in the space of mere moments…
This development not only stunned Patriarch Wang Sheng, but every single member of Zidan Valley was flabbergasted.
Because even Patriarch Wang Sheng couldn’t accomplish this!
“Kid, how were you able to summon these three Earth Lung Fire Veins?” the Valley Master couldn’t help but ask.
“These three fire veins originally belonged to our Ziwei Sect. What’s strange about me being able to summon them?”
By now, Ye Yunfei had already placed his hands behind his back and begun striding skyward step by step. The three Earth Lung Fire Veins simultaneously lowered in height, arriving beneath Ye Yunfei’s feet. Like three fiery dragons, they encircled and supported Ye Yunfei from below, their imposing aura astonishing.
Having endured through long ages, these three Earth Lung Fire Veins had accumulated terrifying quantities of fire energy, possessing a dreadfully terrifying power.
“The flame seeds of all your Zidan Valley alchemists originate from these three fire veins. That too belongs to our Ziwei Sect. I am taking it all back.”
Ye Yunfei spoke indifferently.
Boom…
As soon as the words left his mouth, the three Earth Lung Fire Veins beneath Ye Yunfei’s feet trembled violently simultaneously, erupting with a massive pulling force.
Swoosh, swoosh…
The flame seeds within the bodies of those Zidan Valley alchemists actually began flying out of them one after another, converging towards the three fire veins.
These flame seeds originally stemmed from these three fire veins. Now, controlling the three veins, Ye Yunfei used a secret art to call them back.
“What’s happening? My flame seed is escaping!”
Numerous alchemists paled in fright.
“Flame seed, return to me!”
Some alchemists also attempted alchemic control arts, trying to recall their own flame seeds. But those flame seeds simply ceased to heed their commands. One after another, the pill fires directly merged into the three Earth Lung Fire Veins, disappearing without a trace.
Consequently, the expressions of these Zidan Valley alchemists turned green with fury.
The flame seeds condensed using these three Earth Lung Fire Veins were exceptionally fine for pill refining, being superior-grade flame seeds.
Therefore, these Zidan Valley alchemists treasured these flame seeds dearly. Now, they had lost them all.
“Within the entire Zidan Valley, only your flame seed is immune to summoning. It seems you truly have cultivated the alchemy arts of the Yinxiao Yaoshi Sect. Your current flame seed was refined using the Origin Essence Blood of over ten thousand martial artists.
An evil alchemist like you remaining in this world brings nothing but endless calamity.”
Ye Yunfei’s gaze fixed on Patriarch Wang Sheng as he spoke with a cold sneer.
Hearing this, the complexions of Zidan Valley’s alchemists all drastically changed. They couldn’t help but shift their gazes towards Patriarch Wang Sheng.
In the alchemy world of the Primordial Continent, there indeed existed an unwritten rule: everyone regarded the alchemy arts of the Yinxiao Yaoshi Sect as an evil school. Once discovered, anyone had the right to slay them!
Could it be that their own Patriarch had truly cultivated the evil alchemy arts of the Yinxiao Yaoshi Sect?
Some alchemists couldn't help but feel their convictions waver.
“You vile whelp, you are slandering me!
The flame seed in my body was also refined from these three Earth Lung Fire Veins. However, with my cultivation level, how could I let a junior like you seize my flame seed?
Vile whelp, no matter what, you must die today!
Moreover, after destroying you, I will personally pay a visit to the Ziwei Sect and slaughter every single member of the Ziwei Sect from top to bottom, utterly eradicating them!
From this point on, the Ziwei Sect will cease to exist in this world!”
Patriarch Wang Sheng stared at Ye Yunfei, his face gloomier than the darkest abyss.
What?!
All the members of Zidan Valley who heard Patriarch Wang Sheng’s words were greatly shocked and pale.
Although the members of Zidan Valley refused to acknowledge any relationship between Zidan Valley and the Ziwei Sect, deep down, they knew that Zidan Valley’s first Valley Master and a large group of its founding elders did indeed hail from the Dan Hall of Ziwei Sect.
This fact was known to everyone throughout the Eastern Barrens.
Now, for Patriarch Wang Sheng to declare his intent to trample the Ziwei Sect flat—once such news spread, people would surely gossip about Zidan Valley.
Thus, the expressions of many present turned slightly unnatural.
“Indeed, every single one of you people from Zidan Valley are turncoats.”
Hearing this, Ye Yunfei’s eyes gradually narrowed into slits. His gaze turned icy to the extreme, and surging, overwhelming killing intent swept out from his form.
“The alchemy arts of the Yinxiao Yaoshi Sect often use the Origin Essence Blood of martial artists as a pill catalyst. In truth, this alchemy tradition is not unique to the Yinxiao Yaoshi Sect. In ancient times within the Three Thousand Big and Small Worlds, certain orthodox alchemy schools also frequently used the refined blood of powerful experts to concoct pills.
Today, I’ll give you a proper demonstration.
Coincidentally, you are at the early stage of the Heavenly Position Realm, and those three are at the peak of the Heavenly Sea Realm. With over a hundred more Heavenly Sea Realm experts… they should be sufficient to refine a grand cauldron of potent medicine.
This grand medicine I intend to refine is called the Primordial One Divine Treasure Pill. Legend speaks of limitless divine treasures hidden within the human body; if one can excavate them, the benefits are immense.”
Ye Yunfei looked towards Patriarch Wang Sheng, grinning widely as he spoke.
With Ye Yunfei’s words, stillness descended upon the surrounding heaven and earth.
“You intend to use us as ingredients for pill refinement?”
Patriarch Wang Sheng was taken aback for a moment.
“That’s right.”
Ye Yunfei nodded.
“Hahaha…
Whelp, your arrogance is boundless!
Fine, let me see if you truly possess the capability to use me for alchemy!”
Patriarch Wang Sheng laughed in extreme fury.
“Make your move!”
Patriarch Wang Sheng took a step forward, his rolling might surging up violently. The aura he exuded seemed terrifying enough to crush this piece of the firmament.
This was a powerhouse of the Heavenly Position Realm; the energy he unleashed was too fearsome!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The three Supreme Elders erupted simultaneously as well, akin to three volcanoes exploding.
“Attack!”
The Valley Master gave a great shout.
All the upper echelons, including every single Heavenly Sea Realm expert, simultaneously mobilized, charging towards Ye Yunfei.
Boom! Boom!…
Auras and pressures that spanned the heavens and earth flooded the entirety of Zidan Valley.
“Five Elements energy, heed my command! Assemble into a cauldron with haste!”
Ye Yunfei roared, stamping a foot downwards.
Rumble…
Under the stunned gazes of the crowd, various strands of essence energy of different colors—the essence of the Five Elements—erupted from the earth beneath this area, surging upwards like colossal dragons.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The three Earth Lung Fire Veins beneath Ye Yunfei’s feet also swirled and danced furiously, intertwining with those Five Elements essence energies to coalesce into a vast, indistinct shape of a furnace cauldron.
“What is this?!”
Every member of Zidan Valley stared with wide eyes.
Rumble…
The cauldron began to spin rapidly, solidifying from illusion to substance. This Pill Cauldron was massive in volume, nearly engulfing a large half of Zidan Valley headquarters!
Formed from the earth’s Five Elements energies and the three Earth Lung Fire Veins, the energy this furnace possessed was terrifying to the extreme.
“Not good! We need to break out quickly!”
Patriarch Wang Sheng sensed impending disaster and bellowed.
