11: Increased favorability, cultivation speed increased eightfold!

"What are you all thinking? Master hasn't gone mad. If I were the first person under heaven to refine thirty Medicinal Pills in a single furnace, I would be like that too."

Unlike the others' concern,

Master Chen's eldest Disciple had a face full of envy, and his gaze toward Master Chen was filled with even more admiration.

As soon as he said this, the worry on the others' faces vanished, replaced by pure envy.

Indeed.

After today, Master Chen would surely become famous in one battle, becoming the first Alchemist in history to refine thirty Medicinal Pills in a single furnace.

Although his rank wasn't high, his pill success rate was!

From now on, he was destined to be a figure whose name would go down in history.

Instantly, everyone was green with envy.

Feng Ming, however, cast a worried glance at the seemingly frenzied Master Chen.

"Master Chen, are you alright?"

Master Chen waved his hand. "I'm fine, I'm doing great. To be honest, I'm ashamed; I've been immersed in the Dao of Alchemy for over thirty years, yet this is the first time I've known that Medicinal Pills could be refined this way."

"Furthermore, as the first person capable of refining thirty Medicinal Pills, I am deeply honored."

"Linglong Pavilion has recently been maliciously oppressed by competitors, and we've been struggling to find a solution. If the Second Young Master can provide other Pill Formulas with such success rates,"

"Then the current predicament of our Linglong Pavilion can be broken."

Jiang Shuwan was also astonished, and as if struck by a sudden realization, she instantly understood.

So this was her husband's purpose in bringing her to the Pill Refining Room.

He had already long since possessed a way to break the deadlock.

The others also looked toward Feng Ming with faces full of expectation.

They were all veterans of Linglong Pavilion, and they were well aware of the crisis Linglong Pavilion was facing.

Being suppressed by others without finding a solution, they had long been holding their breath in frustration.

Now, hearing Master Chen say this, everyone turned their eyes toward Feng Ming.

"One set of medicinal ingredients for thirty Medicinal Pills... if we have a few more formulas, with this success rate, what fear would we have of selling at low prices?"

"Exactly! With the cost reduced tenfold, Linglong Pavilion can match whatever price the opponent sets."

"The key is that the furnace used to refine this Pill Formula has no residue left inside; it's truly miraculous."

"Who would have thought that simply adding a few more medicinal ingredients would cause such a change? It's simply unbelievable."

The atmosphere had already reached this peak.

Feng Ming didn't delay either.

He immediately spoke up.

"To be honest with everyone, I have the Pill Formulas for all the formulas from Rank One to Rank Three that appear in the Bright Moon Dynasty."

"As long as you follow the ingredients and operations on the Pill Formula, the success rate is absolutely guaranteed. You are all the people my Feng Family trusts most, and I, Feng Ming, naturally trust you all as well."

"Today, I will give each of you a Pill Formula. Whether our Linglong Pavilion can survive this crisis depends on all of you."

Feng Ming had already taken out the Pill Formulas given by the System from his robes.

Not all of them, only a dozen or so, because there were only that many Alchemists present currently.

Besides, one cannot become a fat man in a single bite; the path must be walked step by step.

Biting off more than one can chew is no good.

Feng Ming believed that these dozen or so Pill Formulas would be enough to win this price war.

Seeing Feng Ming being so solemn, Master Chen hurriedly waved his hands.

"Second Young Master, your words are too heavy. We are all Alchemists supported by the Feng Family; we understand the principle that if one prospers, all prosper, and if one suffers, all suffer."

"Now that we have the formulas you've given, we have the confidence to win this battle and take Linglong Pavilion to the next level."

"Good!"

Feng Ming praised, very satisfied with Master Chen's stance.

Having this awareness meant his formulas weren't given in vain.

Feng Ming handed over the Pill Formulas, and Master Chen and the others immediately began to study them.

Their hands trembled, and the more they looked, the more excited they became.

"This Pill Formula is truly wonderful. Who would have thought that changing a ratio or swapping a few herbs would have such an effect?"

"If I hadn't verified it with my own eyes today, it would have been even more unbelievable if the Second Young Master had just said it."

The others were also incredibly excited.

Master Chen suddenly sat cross-legged on the ground, his eyes tightly shut, as if entering a state of meditation.

Seeing this, Feng Ming did not disturb him, and even the others shut their mouths, silently looking at the Pill Formulas.

Jiang Shuwan, meanwhile, was full of shock.

"Master Chen advanced just by looking at a Pill Formula?"

As an Alchemist herself, Jiang Shuwan naturally knew how difficult it was for an Alchemist to advance.

But now, all of this was like a dream; he had gained enlightenment just by looking at some Pill Formulas.

Feng Ming smiled, also somewhat surprised.

A moment later.

Master Chen opened his eyes and stood up, bowing respectfully to Feng Ming.

"Thank you, Second Young Master."

Feng Ming smiled and helped him up. "Master Chen, why are you being so polite?"

"I have just made a Breakthrough to Rank Three Alchemist. All of this was thanks to the opportunity provided by the Pill Formula the Second Young Master gave."

"I was stuck at the Rank Two Realm for a full twenty years. To be able to break through today is all thanks to the Second Young Master. From now on, I, Chen, am willing to go through fire and water for the Second Young Master, giving my all until the end."

The two exchanged pleasantries for a while before beginning to discuss the upcoming details.

Jiang Shuwan was full of curiosity. "Husband, I want to see how these Medicinal Pills differ from the ones we usually refine."

As she spoke, she was about to reach out.

But Feng Ming caught her hand first.

"Wait, the temperature inside the Pill Furnace is high. I'll get it for you."

Saying that, he reached out and grabbed a Medicinal Pill, blowing on it for a while before handing it over.

Jiang Shuwan looked at Feng Ming like this, her gaze becoming somewhat dazed.

Husband is so good; he really loves me so much.

Seeing the two of them being so affectionate, with gazes that seemed ready to linger forever,

The others tactfully turned their heads, pretending not to see.

Feng Ming, however, felt it was a good opportunity.

He took out the ice spirit sword rewarded by the System.

"Shuwan, you Cultivate ice and snow type techniques and possess an Ice and Snow Spirit Root. This ice spirit sword is a gift I prepared for you. See if it suits your hand."

The favorability was already at seventy percent.

Feng Ming wanted to take the chance to boost it again.

He wondered what kind of effect a full value would have.

Jiang Shuwan looked at Feng Ming with utter shock.

"The ice spirit sword?"

"Husband, when did you prepare this?"

Clearly, she and her husband had been together the whole time, yet she didn't know when her husband had prepared these things for her.

Just yesterday, she was thinking that without a handy sword, there was some suppression when performing her Cultivation Techniques.

She hadn't expected her husband to deliver a sword into her hands today.

"Guess! If I'm preparing a gift for you, can I let you know?"

Feng Ming raised an eyebrow, intentionally not saying.

Besides, he couldn't exactly say it was given by the System.

"Husband, you are truly too good to me."

Jiang Shuwan directly kissed Feng Ming on the forehead.

Feng Ming looked at the blushing Jiang Shuwan and smiled with a face full of happiness.

[Ding! Congratulations to the Host for successfully pampering his wife. The Host has gifted the ice spirit sword to his wife Jiang Shuwan. Jiang Shuwan's favorability has increased to 80%.]

Hearing the System prompt,

Feng Ming's whole spirit was lifted.

Eighty percent. He wondered what kind of reward the System would give.

According to the probabilities, this reward shouldn't be too bad.

Just as he was thinking, the System prompt sounded again.

[Ding! Congratulations to the Host for obtaining the System reward: Phoenix and Luan Art auxiliary cultivation speed increased to 8 times! Obtained three bottles of Origin Spirit Pills, three bottles of peiyuan pills, and one heavenly silkworm armor.]
