However, Su Yun shook his head and said, "You're overthinking it. This place is still on the outskirts of the Purple Flame Land. Even if there are royal herbs here, there wouldn't be so many that have taken root in large areas, and there might even be something above royal herbs."
"This was brought here by a powerful individual; it seems a pill-refining ceremony was taking place here..."
"That's why there are these waste residues, which have long been drained of their medicinal properties."
"Is that right?"
Hearing this, the fat monk calmed down a bit. It was much better to hear it this way; he felt much more at ease.
Otherwise, the thought of missing out on so many treasures would make me grit my teeth in resentment.
But the next moment he became even more curious and asked, "What level of alchemist is needed to refine pills, requiring even the lowest-grade royal medicine? Is it a high-level alchemist or a spirit-level alchemist?"
Although he was knowledgeable and experienced, he did not know much about alchemy.
Su Yun frowned and said, "It's probably beyond the peak of a Spirit-Rank Alchemist, or even a Grand Alchemist."
Most of the pills refined by high-level alchemists are high-grade spiritual herbs.
Like intermediate-level alchemists, they only use spirit-grade herbs for some rare pills, and it's even less likely that they would use royal herbs.
He had heard from Alchemist Li that most Spirit-rank alchemists used Spirit-rank herbs, but in the mid-to-late stages, some pills would require King-rank herbs.
However, the pills used are at least high-grade royal medicines, and may even exceed the spirit grade!
"No way, which great alchemist has also come to the Purple Flame Land?"
Su Yun was somewhat surprised; this discovery was beyond her expectations.
Within a radius of hundreds of thousands of miles, there are probably only the three pavilion masters of Qingxuan Palace, the sect-protecting alchemists of second-rate forces, and some reclusive alchemists who could be such beings. They are extremely rare!
He estimated that there were at most a dozen or so people.
"Could it be that……"
His heart skipped a beat. He had just thought of the three pavilion masters of Qingxuan Palace when he suddenly thought of the second pavilion master of Qingxuan Palace!
The other party encountered a calamity and disappeared in Purple Flame Heavenly City, and could not be found.
Could he have come to the Land of Purple Flame?
Refining elixirs here may also require restoring one's own health!
"Could it really be that great alchemist who fled here?"
Once Su Yun had this thought, he felt it was very likely.
If you were to ask where the hardest place to search for is near Purple Flame Heavenly City, it would be this place. There are very high barriers to entry.
The traces of alchemy here indicate that about ten days have passed, which is almost the same timeframe as what Master Li mentioned!
If it really is that great alchemist, he may have already recovered and left, or he may have hidden in the heart of the Purple Flame Land and is still recuperating.
The fat cultivator standing to the side looked at Su Yun, who was frowning, and asked in confusion, "What are you muttering to yourself?"
"What grand alchemist? Which alchemist?"
The fat monk asked curiously.
Su Yun snapped out of her daze, glanced at him, and said, "This is a long story."
The two left the cave, talking as they walked.
However, he omitted his own and Li Changhong's parts, and only talked about the situation of Qingxuan Palace.
The fat monk finally understood after hearing the explanation.
"So that's what happened."
He stroked his chin, hearing for the first time about the power struggles and infighting within Qingxuan Palace.
Su Yun, meanwhile, was pondering whether they might encounter that great alchemist here.
If his speculation is correct, then it's not impossible!
The two talked as they walked, and two cultivators were walking towards them from the front.
As you can see, both of them looked very unhappy, and they kept turning back as they walked, cursing and swearing, clearly very angry.
"You damn bastard, you've sealed it off and won't let us through?"
"What a bastard!"
"They've come all the way here to flaunt their power; they deserve to die."
“These powerful scions are all arrogant and haughty!”
The two men, both around thirty years old, looked alike and seemed to be brothers, both at the seventh level of the Qi Sea realm.
