Seeing the Flame burning fiercely in Xu Ran's hand, Ya Fei finally stopped doubting him.
As a scion of the Mittel Family, her knowledge was undoubtedly profound, yet she had never seen a person as peculiar as Xu Ran.
The Flame seemed as if it would incinerate her with just one more glance.
In just a moment, the temperature in the room skyrocketed to an extreme degree. And this was still under Xu Ran's deliberate control so that his true strength wouldn't be overly exposed.
As the God of Domination, he mastered the Life Origin of all things in the Douluo Divine Realm, and after arriving at the Fighting Spirit Continent, his Divine Power transformed into Dou Qi, but he still retained these Life Origins.
As for Strange Fire, it was absolutely impossible for it to be stronger than the Flame in his hands.
"Is this Strange Fire?"
Ya Fei said excitedly, her beautiful eyes filled with fervor!
Apart from Strange Fire, she really could not think of any other flame that could possess such power.
"If you say it is, then it is,"
Xu Ran nodded.
In the Fighting Spirit Continent, those who owned Strange Fire were considered strong and talented!
Even the weakest Strange Fire could not possibly be tamed by an ordinary person.
And for an Alchemist! Possessing a powerful Strange Fire is also essential for a strong alchemist. Having powerful Flame can improve the success rate of making Elixirs and even allow them to craft higher grade Elixirs.
"Strange Fire!"
Ya Fei's pretty face flushed, and the way she looked at Xu Ran changed in an instant.
When she thought about how she had just questioned Xu Ran, she wanted to slap herself.
She felt almost tearful, realizing that such a talented and strong individual had come before her – someone that others could only dream of attracting – yet she had treated him in such a way.
What if Xu Ran were to become unhappy? A single word from a mysterious genius with Strange Fire against her in front of her family could ruin any chance of her ever standing out in her family again.
But this enigmatic genius had originally come to find her!
He could have possibly become her support, helping her reach new heights within the Mittel Family! Instead…
As the room temperature continued to climb, Ya Fei's body began to glisten with perspiration, and her already tight brocade dress clung to her skin, revealing her curvaceous figure without reserve.
Ya Fei gasped for fresh air, moving a bit further away from Xu Ran.
Her alluring charms intensified, making it hard for one to look away.
Heroes often have trouble resisting beautiful women; no matter the era, no matter how strong you are, the allure of beautiful women never seems to fade.
"Don't you need an Alchemy Cauldron? We have Alchemy Cauldrons in our auction house, if the young master likes any, you can take them to use," Ya Fei asked from the side, her attitude becoming extremely respectful.
"Alchemy Cauldron?" Xu Ran shook his head.
"A powerful Alchemist can use the heavens and earth as a cauldron. Alchemy Cauldrons are just playthings for those weak Alchemists," Xu Ran stated arrogantly.
Ya Fei was absolutely dumbstruck by Xu Ran's words, as if struck by a thunderbolt on a sunny day.
To use the heavens and earth as a furnace?
If anyone else had said that, she would have thought they were bragging. But coming from Xu Ran's mouth, she felt it was utterly plausible.
Weak Alchemist?
Throughout her life, she had seen Alchemists who needed to use Alchemy Cauldrons! But Xu Ran didn't even need one.
Even Dan King Gu He could not achieve alchemy without an Alchemy Cauldron. How high could Xu Ran's rank as an Alchemist be? Definitely above Gu He, right?
Ya Fei took a deep breath, covering her mouth with her hands. She feared that her excitement might cause her to lose composure and shout out loud, which would then disturb Xu Ran. Alchemists dislike being interrupted while crafting Elixirs.
Ya Fei stared intently, afraid to even blink, lest she miss that miraculous process. It wasn't every day that one had the chance to witness an alchemist of great prowess conducting alchemy up close.
The Bone Healing Pill in Xu Ran's hand was scorched by the flame, showing nothing out of the ordinary.
Waves of life essence were continuously infused into the elixirs by Xu Ran.
A dense fragrance of the elixirs wafted forth, a single breath of which could invigorate one's spirit and make the whole body feel extraordinarily refreshed, as if a day's fatigue had all but disappeared.
At least fourth grade!
Ya Fei thought to herself, knowing that only elixirs of at least the fourth grade could exude such a rich fragrance!
But the next moment, powerful energy ripples began to emanate from the elixir in Xu Ran's hand!
Fifth grade!
Xu Ran kept channeling extremely pure Life Origin into the elixir, rapidly elevating the grade of the Bone Healing Pill!
Boom!
It seemed as if a muffled roar echoed between heaven and earth.
All of Wu Tan City was caught in a strange celestial phenomenon. The sky turned a faint life-like green, and the rich fragrance of the elixir spread outward from the auction house. Everyone smelled the intense and pure fragrance of the elixir as if their bodies had been cleansed.
The people of Wu Tan City were all filled with astonishment, exclaiming in wonder at the celestial phenomenon.
The people from the three major families of Wu Tan City were even more stirred up.
They weren't fools; it was clear the celestial phenomenon originated from the auction house, and even if they didn't understand what was happening, they all made their way to the auction house to investigate.
"Celestial phenomena, Sixth-Grade Elixir."
In her boudoir at the Xiao family, Xiao Xun'er looked at the sky in amazement.
The emergence of a Sixth-Grade Elixir indicated the presence of an Alchemist of the sixth grade or higher in the vicinity.
"Could such a small place actually produce a Sixth-Grade Alchemist? Isn't Gu He the only Sixth-Grade Alchemist in the entire Jia Ma Empire?" Ling Ying appeared all of a sudden, equally astonished.
But the next moment, an even more shocking scene unfolded!
The sky phenomenon slowly dissipated, and the entire sky was covered with dark clouds, turning the whole world dim in an instant.
Countless flashes of lightning flickered, and the roaring sound of thunder exploded...
"Pill Lightning?"
Xun'er could no longer stay calm. Her beautiful eyes moved, gazing at the sky, her rosy lips slightly agape.
"Miss, shall I investigate?" Ling Ying asked with a serious expression on his face.
"Mm," Xiao Xun'er nodded in agreement.
A Seventh-Rank Alchemist, the value of an alchemist of this grade was even more frightening than a Dou Zun expert.
A Seventh-Rank Alchemist could call forth numerous Dou Zun experts to serve them with a wave of their hand.
Alchemists were a rare profession in the Fighting Spirit Continent, and powerful alchemists even more so.
...
By now, Ya Fei was numb.
Watching as the celestial phenomenon grew increasingly terrifying and directly induced Pill Lightning, she knew what grade the elixir was.
Only elixirs of Seventh Grade or higher could attract Pill Lightning, as recorded in ancient texts.
So this meant that the elixir before her, was a Seventh-Grade Elixir?
But it was said in legends that Pill Lightning was exceedingly dreadful. Xu Ran might be able to refine such a terrifying elixir, but how would he withstand the fearsome Pill Lightning?
