Martial Peak

Editor and Proofreader: Leo of Zion Mountain

When Yang Kai broke into the mountain valley, the old man who was in the midst of his Alchemy immediately noticed, causing a frown to appear on his face and a terrifying pressure to emerge from his body.

The entire mountain valley where he made his home was one of Rainfall Star’s Restricted Areas; no one was allowed to even approach it, and no one dared to either, yet today, some little brat who didn’t know how high the Heavens were had actually flew straight in.

The old man was infuriated and his first thought was to take Yang Kai’s life directly to warn others what fate awaited those who dared disturb him while he was performing Alchemy.

The lives of minor characters like Yang Kai weren’t even worth worrying about for this old man.

But just as he was about to act, one of the pill furnaces placed around him suddenly made a strange hissing sound, causing the old man’s expression to fill with bitterness. Pouring his Saint Qi into the pill furnace, the old man quickly stabilized the medicinal liquids inside and muttered, “Pills are difficult to refine. Hmph, I’ll let you live for a while, your life isn’t worth wasting a furnace of materials on. Damn it, pills are really difficult to refine!”

Muttering to himself while constantly waving his hands in complicated patterns, sending his Saint Qi into different pill furnaces, his Space Ring flashing on and off as different herbs which had been prepared in advance were thrown into the various furnaces.

As more and more strange sounds emerged from the various pill furnaces, the old man’s expression remained tranquil, without the slightest bit of tension at all, only the movement of his hands accelerated noticeably.

After half an hour, the sunken eyes of the old man shone brilliantly and all the pill furnaces hummed, crisp ringing sounds echoing from them as a thick pill fragrance filled the air!

Reaching out his hand, the several dozen large and small pill furnaces all opened and a multitude of different coloured pills flew out, dropping like raindrops into several jade bottles which had been prepared beforehand.

With a pitter-patter, three jade bottles were soon completely filled.

The old man didn’t feel the slightest bit of fatigue and instead seemed quite excited. Rubbing his somewhat wrinkled hands together, he rushed over to the jade bottles to pick them up and carefully examined the pills which had just come out of the furnace.

“No… no…still no… Every time the old man checked one, he would whisper to himself, the look of anticipation on his face gradually disappearing and being replaced with disappointment.

After checking through all three jade bottles, nearly forty pills in total, he was still unable to find what he wanted.

As if it had received a huge blow, the old man’s face became disheartened and he sighed heavily, “Pills are really hard to refine. Why aren’t there any Pill Veins? Could it be that this old master’s method of mass quantities is actually wrong? No, it can’t be!”

Saying so, he threw these three jade bottles aside as if they were worthless trash, not even sparing them a second glance.

In the corner of his pill room, a large number of jade bottles were piled up, over a hundred of them in total, each one of them filled with pills. None of the pills in these bottles was lower than Saint King Grade and there were even several of them that were Origin Grade.
