The Strongest Prodigy Doctor

Chapter 850 - 950: News of the Nine Dragons Chalice

Ye Tianfan saw Ning Xuehua being reduced to powder during the alchemy process, but the flames in the alchemy furnace, under his command, did not scorch the powder!This was like having a cheat code, a golden finger in alchemy, as Ye Tianfan didn't need to perform any intricate operation. He simply ordered the flames to refine the herbs, leaving only the final fusion process for him, though the fusion still consumed mental strength, something that hadn't changed. Ye Tianfan no longer needed to worry about temperature control!

What Ye Tianfan didn't know was that this flame manipulation was entirely due to the Illusory Fire and Cold Fire. The first trace of Flame Power in the world was the ancestor of all fires, and even just a fragment of it could command all flames in the world.

Besides, Ye Tianfan had two fragments, albeit they were special flames, none of which were of ordinary temperature. Yet they could crush any worldly fire!

Not only in functionality but also in quality, it was a crushing existence.

The reason why these flame authority privileges appeared only today was because Ye Tianfan had never truly studied the flames deeply. His research was always superficial, never delving into the personality, life, and characteristics of the flames!

And today, as Ye Tianfan controlled the fire, from nothing to something, from small to large, he began to feel its birth. This feeling led to significant changes in Ye Tianfan's mindset and brought a substantial transformation in his understanding of fire, making it more profound and comprehensive.

It was this understanding that resonated with the flames composed of Illusory Fire and Cold Fire within Ye Tianfan, leading Illusory Fire to share the Flame Venerable's authority with him.

Calling it sharing, but barring any accidents, Ye Tianfan would share this authority for life. It's more like the Flame Venerable's authority permanently belongs to Ye Tianfan!

Though it didn't mean Ye Tianfan had absolute control over flames, he could currently control flames within the limits of his maximum tolerance for Flame Power combined with the Illusory Fire's Flame Power within him. Flames beneath this power could be entirely controlled by Ye Tianfan.

Flames stronger than Ye Tianfan's maximum flame-releasing capacity would be influenced by him, but if much stronger, he still couldn't control them!

Of course, Ye Tianfan didn't know this, because his limit requires at least being above the Bai Hui realm. Hence, if a fire element cultivator below Bai Hui realm attacks using fire-attribute Immortal Techniques, it's ineffective against Ye Tianfan!

Although there are limits, it's fully adequate for Ye Tianfan's alchemy. Any flame beneath his maximum flame-releasing power can be controlled, so any flame generated with his Spiritual Power can be fully commanded and manipulated!

Thus, Ye Tianfan's alchemy career will be smooth sailing, unlikely to face mid-way failures. If failures occur, they'll only be due to fusion stage errors, with no chance of failure during the previous refining stages!

In the following days, Ye Tianfan thoroughly enjoyed the joys of alchemy, almost never failing, except for a few times. Those failures were due to excessive exhaustion from over-alchemy that led to significant mental depletion!

One day, after happily finishing his alchemy, Ye Tianfan returned to his room as usual, only to find his master, Tian Chu Zhenren, sitting at the doorway, evidently waiting for Ye Tianfan!

Seeing this, Ye Tianfan quickly went forward to greet and said to his master, "Master, why are you waiting at the door, why not directly come in and sit?"

"No, I'm here to tell you something!" Tian Chu Zhenren said.

"Please speak, Master!" Ye Tianfan said.

"The Black Market's once-in-a-century auction will be held in three years!" Tian Chu Zhenren stated, expressionless, seemingly not in a great mood.

Though puzzled why his master seemed unhappy, Ye Tianfan still spoke, "I know, Bai Feng already mentioned it to me!"

"You know? Okay then, I'm here to tell you that the Nine Dragon Cup will appear in this auction!" Tian Chu Zhenren said solemnly!

"Nine Dragon Cup?" Ye Tianfan was stunned upon hearing this, as the name was too familiar to him, since it's the very thing that brought Ye Tianfan to this world. He believed his path back must be related to the Nine Dragon Cup, thus he secretly kept tabs on any news regarding the Nine Dragon Cup!

And now, the news of the Nine Dragon Cup was right before him, at the Black Market auction in three years!

Ye Tianfan decided to attend the auction in three years. Initially, he didn't have much interest, thinking it didn't matter if he attends, despite the allure of Dragon's Saliva Fragrance. But a crucial issue presented itself, he had no money.

Rather, it wasn't about having no money, but lacking Spirit Stones! Without Spirit Stones, what's the point of attending the auction, just for a visual feast?

Though Ye Tianfan wasn't sure if this Nine Dragon Cup was the same one that brought him here, or if the nine Nine Dragon Cups in this world are like or related to those in his original world, he felt the only way to know was to go and see!

And Ye Tianfan wanted to go to the Black Market, even if he had to go bankrupt to get that Nine Dragon Cup, even trading the Freedom Sword or Xuan Dragon Seal was worth it to him!

Speaking of the Freedom Sword, Sect Leader still hadn't given it to him, nor had Ye Tianfan dared to ask. He'd see how things go, if Sect Leader hasn't returned it by then, he'd have his master make a visit to reclaim these items!
