Chapter 3279: Free Alchemy

gourd is his only magical artifact, called the Yin Soul Gourd. Its use is not too different from the Gu rearing techniques of the Miao people.First, countless souls are collected using a gourd and kep..."Are you really a Celestial Alchemist, or are you deceiving me"

The middle-aged man was still utterly incredulous.

"I want to refine a fourth-grade local pill. Can you refine it"

"Of course."

Ye Bufan pointed at the notice he had just written, "I only refine fourth-grade pills."

The middle-aged man only noticed the content on the notice at this point. Seeing "Free Alchemy, Pay After Refining", this charging method was unheard of.

Generally, alchemists refine pills on behalf of others, requiring three times the amount of medicinal ingredients and a substantial alchemy fee.

As for what it will be forged into and whether you can bear the consequences, I take absolutely no responsibility.

Such a charging method would be like manna from heaven for these immortals who don't know how to refine alchemy.

The more he heard, the less he could believe it. He asked again, “Are you sure you’re a real immortal alchemist You’re not tricking me, are you”

"If you don't believe me, forget it."

Ye Bufan's face immediately darkened, "I'm a kind person. Seeing that you were just bullied by that goat-faced man, I wanted to help."

"If you're unwilling, then forget it. Do I even need to refine alchemy with my skills"

He was very aware of human weaknesses. As a highly respected alchemist, he should be arrogant, otherwise it would be hard for people to believe in him.

"Forget it, I'll pretend I said nothing. This is outrageous! Go find someone else."

After he finished speaking, he turned and prepared to return to his own tower.

"Master Xian Dan Shi, please don't be angry."

This move really worked! The middle-aged man immediately broke into a smile and chased after him.

"I was being disrespectful and impolite just now. Please forgive me."

Ye Bufan said nothing, but secretly chuckled in his heart. This world was truly eager to make a deal that wasn't beneficial.

If you put on too much of a humble act, others will doubt you. With this kind of manipulation, the other party will immediately become obedient.

The middle-aged man said again, “Master, can you really refine the Earthly Origin Pill”

Ye Bufan let out a cold snort: "A mere fourth-order elixir It's nothing to me. I can make it with ease."

"Master, are you really a fourth-order Immortal Dan Master"

Before the middle-aged man could speak, a voice of surprise rang out from beside him. Following that, a beautiful female fairy walked over.

Seeing another customer, Ye Bufan felt pleased in his heart, but his expression remained calm.

Of course.

The beautiful fairy asked in surprise, "Sir, could you possibly refine a furnace of fourth-order Zhēngxuán Dān for me"

She wanted to refine a pill that was considered high-grade even among 4th-order pills. The difficulty of refining it was great, so she asked again to confirm.

"No problem."

Ye Bufan pointed to the notice posted on the wall, "My fee standards are here. You can take a look yourself."

The beautiful fairy glanced at him and immediately took out a storage ring: “I have three sets of prepared medicinal herbs here. I trouble the esteemed elixir master.”

She wandered through the Treasure Pavilion for a long time, hoping to find someone to refine a Zhengxuan Pill for her.

Either the Alchemist's fee is too high, or their level is too low to refine this fourth-order elixir.

Now that I happened to meet Ye Bufan saying he could refine it, although I'm not 100% sure, but there are no other options left, I can only go all in.

Although the middle-aged man was displeased at being interrupted by this delicate fairy, he dared not act out of fear of further offending the immortal alchemist before him.

Seeing someone ahead of him, he quickly followed suit and said: "Immortal Alchemist, I also have three portions of materials here. Please, spare some effort and refine a Earthly Origin Pill for me."

After finishing his words, he also took out a storage ring and handed over the prepared herbs.

Ye Bufan was delighted in his heart. With his alchemy skills, he didn't need three materials at all, one was enough. The remaining two were his own.

"No problem, just wait here."

He reached out and grasped the two rings in his hand, then strode into the Dan Tower.

Seeing Ye Bufan's figure disappear, the middle-aged man and the beautiful fairy woman looked at each other, both seeing unease in each other's eyes.

The middle-aged man dispersed his consciousness, though he dared not peek inside the small building. He carefully examined the exterior and confirmed there were no back doors before feeling a sliver of relief.

Then he sighed and whispered to the beautiful fairy, "Fairy friend, this alchemist is really too young. It makes me feel uneasy."

"Yeah!"

Even the pretty fairy felt a bit anxious, “But there’s no other way, four-rank alchemist are just too expensive. I can’t afford anyone else.”

"That's right, Master Zhang demanded I pay him ten million low-grade Xian crystals, not a single one less!"

"For immortals like us, pills are life-saving things; we can't be careless!" the middle-aged man said.

"Don't think too much about it, since you chose Master Alchemist, just believe him. Let's wait a while and talk later."

The elegant fairy sat down on the chair by the door, and the middle-aged man sat down beside her.

"You're right, just wait. It won't be long."

The middle-aged man looked at the sun in the sky, "I often ask Zhang Dan shi to refine medicine pills. It takes him about two hours to open a furnace each time."

And while alchemists who refine elixirs have a success rate, not every attempt is successful. Generally, if an alchemist can successfully refine one elixir out of three attempts, they are already considered a very skilled alchemist.

This adds up to six hours, and since it's for both of us, that means about twelve hours worth of time.

The pretty fairy nodded: "That's right, waiting a little longer is nothing. If the Alchemist comes out too soon, that's when we should be worried..."

The middle-aged man understood the meaning behind her words. If Ye Bufan came out too quickly, it could only mean that his alchemy attempt failed, and their materials would be wasted.

At that moment, they suddenly widened their eyes in shock and stared in disbelief at the small building.

Only leisurely, with an extraordinary air of composure, he walked out from within.

""

The two people instantly froze in place. They really did fear what they would get, didn't they It hadn't even been that long.

In less than half an hour, this master alchemist came out, meaning their pills had no hope at all, and all the medicinal herbs were ruined.

The lovely fairy was stunned for a moment, then her face fell with dejection, disappointment reaching its peak.

The middle-aged man's face was filled with anger. He reached out and drew a bronze long sword, instantly appearing before Ye Bufan.

"You liar, give me back the Xian Ling Cao!"

In his view, there were only two possibilities now. Either this young man's alchemy level was too poor, and he had wasted six furnaces of pills in such a short time.

Another possibility is that the scammer did not actually practice alchemy, and simply swindled them both out of their alchemical materials.

If it's the latter, you still have a chance to get it back.

"Spirit Herb, what do you want it for Don't you want the pills"

Ye Bufan spoke, raising his hand and waving it. Two small jade bottles appeared before the beautiful female fairy and the middle-aged man.

"A person should be honest. The pill has already been refined, and there's no going back once you regret it."rty kicked him hard in the stomach."Damn it, damn it all!"The holy knight was almost driven to madness, he never expected the opponent to be so powerful.His hand flashed with sword light again, direct...
