Chapter 7 Wutan City, Grade 6 Elixir?
Three days later, in the capital of the Gama Empire.
The Mittel family headquarters is located in the heart of the capital, covering a vast area and possessing a magnificent presence.
Mittel Tengshan sat in the main seat of the hall, discussing some matters with Fama.
Fama is the president of the Alchemist Guild and a fifth-grade alchemist. In the Gama Empire, a fifth-grade alchemist is already a very high level. There are no more than five people in the entire empire who can reach the fifth-grade alchemist level.
"Fujiyama, your Mittel family has been making quite a few moves in the capital lately," Fama said.
Mittel Fujiyama picked up his teacup, about to speak.
A disciple of the Mittel family strode in.
"Chief, a letter from Wutan City." The disciple handed over a letter with both hands.
Mittel Tengshan took the letter and opened it to read.
Mittel Tengshan's gaze fell on the letter, and his expression gradually changed, from calm to surprise, and from surprise to shock.
Fama sat to the side, watching Mittel Tengshan's expression, wondering what had happened.
"Fujiyama, what happened?" Fama asked.
Mittel Tengshan did not answer; he continued reading, his hands trembling slightly.
The letter was written by Ya Fei, and its contents were very simple.
The Mittel Auction House in Wutan City received a sixth-grade pill, the Douling Pill, from Xiao Ze, the fourth young master of the Xiao family.
Mittel Tengshan took a deep breath and put the letter down.
"Fama, take a look at this." Mittel Tengshan handed over the letter.
Fama took the letter and began to read it; Fama's expression changed as well.
"A sixth-grade pill?" Fama looked up at Mittel Tengshan. "A Battle Spirit Pill?"
"That's what it says in the letter," Mittel Tengshan said.
Fama put down the letter and remained silent for a moment.
Fama is a fifth-grade alchemist. Refining fifth-grade pills is already the limit of his ability. He cannot refine sixth-grade pills.
In the entire Jia Ma Empire, there is only one person who can refine sixth-grade pills: Pill King Gu He.
"Fujiyama, is the contents of this letter reliable?" Fama asked.
"Ya Fei is a member of our Mittel family; she wouldn't joke about something like this," Mittel Tengshan said.
Fama nodded. He had met Ya Fei before; she was a very composed woman. If she hadn't been certain that the pill was a sixth-grade Dou Ling Pill, she wouldn't have sent the news back to headquarters.
"Fama, I plan to go to Utan City myself," Mitteltenshan said.
Upon hearing this, Fama was taken aback.
Mittel Tengshan, the patriarch of the Mittel family, is extremely busy. The fact that he personally made a trip to Utan City for this matter shows how much importance he attaches to it.
"I'll go with you too," Fama said.
Mitteltenshan looked at Fama, "You're going too?"
"I'd like to see a sixth-grade pill with my own eyes," Fama said.
Mittel Tengshan nodded. "Then let's go together."
Without delay, the two left the Mittel family headquarters directly.
Mittel Tengshan and Fama activated their battle qi wings, their wings unfurling as they soared into the sky, flying towards Wutan City.
The news quickly spread throughout the Mittel family.
The sixth-grade pill, the Spirit-Competing Pill, was commissioned by Xiao Ze, the fourth young master of the Xiao family, and the entire Mittel family was abuzz with discussion.
"How could a small place like Wutan City have a sixth-grade pill?"
"The fourth young master of the Xiao family? Isn't the Xiao family one of the three major families in Wutan City?"
"I heard that the Xiao family's cultivation technique is only at the mid-level of the Profound Rank. How could they possibly produce a sixth-grade pill?"
"Even the clan chief went there in person, so it seems this is true."
"The fourth young master of the Xiao family has never heard of this person before."
"No matter what, someone who can produce a sixth-grade pill is definitely not an ordinary person."
The Mittel family was abuzz with gossip, but no one knew the truth.
On the other side of the capital.
Liu Ling hurriedly entered Gu He's mansion.
Gu He is the only sixth-grade alchemist in the Jia Ma Empire. He is revered as the Pill King, and all the powerful figures in the empire desire the pills he refines.
The royal family, clans, sects, and various forces all treated him with great respect.
At this moment, Gu He was sitting in the alchemy room, with a medicine cauldron placed in front of him.
Gu He had just finished refining a sixth-grade pill, but failed.
Fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, and his complexion looked rather unpleasant.
The refining of sixth-grade pills is extremely difficult. Although Gu He is a sixth-grade alchemist, he cannot succeed in refining them every time, with a success rate of less than 70%.
"Master," Liu Ling said as he entered the alchemy room.
Gu He raised his head and looked at Liu Ling.
"What is it?" Guhe asked.
"Master, I have received some news," Liu Ling said.
"explain."
"A sixth-grade pill, the Battle Spirit Pill, has appeared in Wutan City," Liu Ling said.
Upon hearing this, Gu He paused in his actions.
Gu He raised his head and looked at Liu Ling.
"What did you say?"
"A sixth-grade pill has appeared in Wutan City," Liu Ling repeated.
"Wutan City?" Gu He frowned. "How could a sixth-grade pill appear in such a small place?"
"This disciple doesn't know either," Liu Ling said. "The news came from the Mittel family, so it shouldn't be false."
Guhe remained silent for a moment.
He was the only one in the entire Gama Empire who could refine sixth-grade pills. How could a small place like Wutan City possibly produce sixth-grade pills?
Could it be an alchemist from another empire? Or perhaps it was passed down from somewhere else?
"Master, what do you plan to do?" Liu Ling asked.
Guhe stood up and paced around the alchemy room.
The appearance of sixth-grade pills is a signal to Gu He. If there really is an alchemist in Wutan City who can refine sixth-grade pills, then his status as the Pill King Gu He will be threatened.
"I also plan to go to Wutan City," Guhe said.
Upon hearing this, Liu Ling was taken aback.
"Master, are you going yourself?"
"A sixth-grade pill, of course I have to go and see it," Gu He said.
Liu Ling nodded. Gu He was a sixth-grade alchemist, so he was naturally interested in sixth-grade pills. If that Dou Ling Pill was indeed made by someone, then Gu He would definitely want to meet that person.
"Master, I will go with you," Liu Ling said.
Guhe waved his hand.
"You don't need to go," Gu He said. "I can go by myself."
Liu Ling nodded, and didn't say anything more.
Gu He stepped out of the alchemy room, activated his battle qi to form wings, and soared into the sky.
Guhe's gaze turned towards the direction of Wutan City, a glint of light flashing in his eyes.
A sixth-grade pill, from Wutan City. He wanted to see what the origins of the person who refined this Battle Spirit Pill were.
Guhe's figure streaked through the air and disappeared into the clouds.
Above the capital, three figures flew towards Wutan City.
Mittel Tengshan and Fama were in front, with Guhe behind. The three of them moved extremely fast, their fighting spirit wings spreading out in the air and creating gusts of wind.
Mittel Tengshan turned and glanced at Fama.
"Fama, do you think that Battle Spirit Pill was really refined by that young master of the Xiao family?" Mittel Tengshan asked.
"It's hard to say," Fama said. "I've never heard of a sixth-grade alchemist who's fifteen or sixteen years old."
"That's what I think too," Mittel Tengshan said. "Kayafei said in her letter that Xiao Ze has always been called a good-for-nothing in Wutan City."
"Useless?" Fama was taken aback.
"Three stages of fighting spirit," Mittel Tengshan said.
Fama frowned. A piece of trash with only three levels of Dou Qi could refine a sixth-grade pill? How was that possible?
A sixth-grade alchemist is at least a Dou Wang level expert. If a third-stage Dou Qi cannot even activate the pill, how can he refine it?
"That doesn't make sense," Fama said.
"That's why I had to go and see for myself," Mittel Tengshan said.
Fama nodded; this matter was indeed strange.
A person with only three levels of Dou Qi is called trash, yet he produced a sixth-grade pill. Two completely contradictory pieces of information are concentrated in the same person. Just who is this Xiao Ze?
The two stopped talking and continued flying towards Wutan City.
Guhe followed behind, not far from Mittelten Mountain and Fama.
Furukawa was also thinking about the same question.
Xiao Ze, the fourth young master of the Xiao family, a waste with only three levels of Dou Qi, and a sixth-grade pill—these pieces of information swirled in Gu He's mind, but he couldn't piece them together no matter what.
It's impossible for a piece of trash with only a third-stage Dou Qi to refine a sixth-grade pill, and the news about the Kemiter family can't be unfounded.
A cold glint flashed in Guhe's eyes. No matter what, once they arrived in Wutan City, everything would come to light.
Three figures flew one after the other towards Wutan City.
