Regarding the actions of the Silver Moon Kingdom, Lufan was not surprised. After all, what he did had a significant impact, severely damaging the prestige of the Silver Moon Kingdom. The best way for the Silver Moon Kingdom to eliminate the negative effects would be to suppress him in front of everyone as a warning to others.
He was mentally prepared for this, but who was Prince Yu? From Uncle Fu's expression, it seemed he was a formidable figure.
Since arriving in this world, Lufan had spent most of his time in the Library reading books and was not familiar with a genius like Prince Yu, even if he was a legendary figure in the empire.
However, he did not know that upon hearing this name, Duanmu Xue and the others were taken aback and couldn't help but exclaim, "Prince Yu?!"
"What's wrong? Do you know who he is?" Lufan turned to ask.
"Of course we do. He is known as a legendary figure of the Silver Moon Kingdom," Duanmu Xue replied.
At that moment, Duanmu Xue recounted everything about Prince Yu, including how he preferred literature over martial arts in his youth and later realized his mistakes and devoted himself to martial arts training. He participated in the Holy War and ultimately achieved the title of Martial Arts Master. Duanmu Xue spoke about these events as if they were well-known facts; after all, Prince Yu's reputation was so great that even in their remote Qingyang City, there were many legends about him.
"Lufan, Prince Yu became a Martial Arts Master ten years ago. Who knows what level he has reached now? Rumor has it that he possesses qualities of a Grandmaster. He might be on the verge of breaking through; you should reconsider fighting him," Duanmu Xue advised.
Lufan fell silent. Just as Duanmu Xue said, if this Prince Yu was indeed that strong, he probably had at least the strength of a third-level Master. In that case, he really needed to think about canceling his plans.
After all, he had truly witnessed the power of a third-level Master; it was a force that could crush him effortlessly. To go against such strength would be foolishness.
"Hehe, things aren't as dire as you think. Prince Yu isn't as powerful as you imagine at the moment," said an elderly man with white hair and beard sitting across from Uncle Fu with a gentle smile.
"Have you met Prince Yu before?" Lufan asked.
"A year ago, I had an encounter with Prince Yu. At that time, his strength was still at the first level of Master in the virtual realm. Now that a year has passed, I estimate he still hasn't broken through to the real realm," the old man stroked his white beard and replied.
"Isn't it said that he has the potential of a Grandmaster? Why has he been stuck in the Void Realm for ten years?" Lufan found it quite strange. Could it be that after Prince Yu's breakthrough, his potential was exhausted?
Duanmu Xue and the others were equally puzzled. After all, he was a legendary figure of the empire; how could it seem like he had made no progress at all in these ten years?
"I'm not very clear on the reasons behind this. After all, I'm not from the Silver Moon Kingdom. I've only come here to hide away while searching for a type of Primordial Medicine over the past few years. But from what I've observed about Prince Yu, he is indeed a talented individual and shouldn't be trapped in the Void Realm. Perhaps there are other hidden circumstances," the old man said, also feeling a bit confused.
Regardless of the reasons, this information eased Lufan's mind considerably. As long as the other party was still in the Void Realm, things weren't so dire.
He then bowed respectfully to the old man, saying, "Thank you for sharing this information. May I ask for your name?"
"He is called Huang Qi," Uncle Fu replied gruffly. "He is an elder of the Dan Ding Sect and a master alchemist. You can just call him Huang Lao."
A master alchemist! Lufan and the others immediately felt a surge of respect.
A master alchemist is a title that can only be attained by those who have refined their alchemical skills to an extraordinary level, reaching a state of perfection.
Master alchemists are even rarer than Martial Arts Masters. Many elixirs useful for those above Martial Arts Master rank can only be crafted by master alchemists. Therefore, in terms of status, master alchemists hold a significantly higher position than ordinary Martial Arts Masters. It was unexpected that Uncle Fu could invite such a person.
Although this master alchemist's name was somewhat unusual and similar to that of a medicinal herb, Lufan and his companions did not dare to show any disrespect and quickly greeted him with reverence: "Greetings, Master!"
"No need for excessive courtesy; just call me Huang Lao," Huang Lao said with a smile as he looked at Lufan. He then turned to Uncle Fu and asked, "Is this the one chosen by the gentleman?"
"Indeed."
"Truly exceptional; no wonder he has caught the gentleman's attention." A glimmer of interest flashed in Huang Lao's eyes. Not only was he proficient in alchemy, but his own strength had also reached the level of a Martial Arts Master, allowing him to sense Lufan's extraordinary nature. He silently marveled at the gentleman's remarkable insight; this young man's potential was indeed unfathomable.
Recalling Uncle Fu's purpose for inviting him over, he was even more impressed. The young man's potential was not just significant; what was even more formidable was his willpower. With his current strength, he dared to face a master. The key was that from his gaze, Huang Lao did not see fear but rather sensed a spirit of courage and relentless pursuit—qualities that were quite rare among many talented young individuals.
However, Lufan felt somewhat puzzled and did not understand what the two meant by "chosen," but he did not ask further, knowing that when it was time for him to know, Uncle Fu would naturally explain it to him.
"The purpose of calling me here this time, Gong Laotou has already informed me. I heard you want to refine the Transcendence Pill and aim to break through the Bone Refinement Realm?"
"Indeed, I appreciate Huang Lao for this." Lufan bowed again.
"It's nothing to be overly polite about. Given my long-standing friendship with Gong Laotou, and since you are someone the master values, it’s only right to help with this."
Lufan had grown accustomed to people showing great respect for the master, but he still felt it necessary to show proper etiquette, as the respect was directed towards the master, not him.
"Refining the Transcendence Pill from the Bone Refinement Realm isn't particularly difficult, but the materials are hard to find. Have you gathered everything?" Huang Lao asked.
"I have already prepared everything."
"Good. These few types of Primordial Medicine are all of high quality, sufficient to refine a top-grade Transcendence Pill!" A moment later, Huang Lao held a Blood Spirit Mushroom, examining it closely and praising it continuously.
"So when can you start refining the pills, Huang Lao? Time is pressing, and who knows when that Junior from the Silver Moon Kingdom will arrive." In Uncle Fu's eyes, Prince Yu was merely a Junior.
"Pill refining cannot be rushed. I need to first verify the Medicinal Properties of these Primordial Medicine, so I can determine the proper ratios for each ingredient during the refining process. Otherwise, even if I manage to refine something, it would just be a batch of useless pills." Huang Lao continued inspecting the various Primordial Medicine.
He then took out several slender silver needles and inserted them into each type of Primordial Medicine. After a few moments, he withdrew them and noticed a drop of liquid on each needle. Subsequently, Huang Lao placed them in his mouth and closed his eyes to savor the flavors.
After tasting the medicinal liquids from all the Primordial Medicine, Huang Lao opened his eyes and said, "Alright, I have a general understanding now. We can begin refining the pills, but it will take at least seven days to complete!" (To be continued.)
