Chapter 115: Chapter 115: Seeing Off the Guest_1
Outside the Royal Palace.
At this moment, seven or eight dignitaries were impatiently waiting here.
Each of these eight individuals had reached the realm of God Glimpse, wearing golden robes. Particularly, the leading elder exuded a radiant aura like a bright lamp, seemingly dispelling any darkness. He had terrifyingly achieved the realm of God Illumination.
God Glimpse, God Illumination, God Concealment, God Position, God Passage, Void God, True God, Celestial God.
God Illumination is the second stage of the divine realm, a person of unparalleled talent that appears only in the Three Star Imperial Dynasties.
The words "Infinite Trading Company" were carved in gold on their clothes, in a prominent position, representing their identities.
"Hmph! This Martial Emperor Dawu puts on quite an act; we personally came here and yet we have to wait here to be summoned. if it were any other dynasty, they would have met us outside the Imperial City by now. Even Ji Fuling had to go and request a meeting first, in my old view, we should just go in directly.
We came in person from the Five Star branch, he should already consider this a great honour."
One of the elders, surprisingly having reached a half-step into the God Illumination realm, was the second strongest among the group.
His tone was filled with dissatisfaction, and as he looked towards the Royal Palace of Dawu, he seemed very arrogant, even slightly contemptuous.
"Ji Fuling's considerations are also reasonable. Recently, Dawu has provided us with a large number of Divine Elixirs."
Immediately, someone shook his head and said, "Have you heard? A few months ago, an ancient ruin appeared in a mine in Dawu. A large number of strong people, including those at the peak of God Glimpse, went there at that time. But in the end, all those people disappeared without a trace, none returned."
"Are you saying that those people are already dead, and they died at the hands of Dawu?"
Someone exclaimed in shock.
"I heard it from passers-by, so I'm not certain. But what I am sure about is, this Martial Emperor Dawu is very powerful, his means are ruthless and domineering and he's no ordinary person. It's better to be cautious."
"Absurd, how is that possible? I know that Dawu was still a One Star Dynasty just last year."
The constantly arrogant elder named Wu Xian said, "Elder Chen, with your mighty physique of God Illumination, even the rulers of a Three Star Imperial Dynasty would have to meet and greet you courteously."
"This ruler of Dawu is indeed very special."
Elder Chen shook his head, quietly said, "Didn't you sense it before you came? Dawu's national strength is like a furnace, thriving and rising. The people's hearts are united, they hail the Martial Emperor. I have never seen such a scene in the Expanse Imperial Dynasty. Based on this point alone, I knew he's not simple.
Moreover, the rice ate by Dawu's citizens is not ordinary, it's called Spirit Grain rice."
"However strong the national fortune, it's still just a Two Star Dynasty." Wu Xian spoke coldly, "Expanse Imperial Dynasty also has Crystal Aroma Rice, can it be compared?"
"I've tasted Crystal Aroma Rice too, but it's far behind Spirit Grain rice. Even if placed in the headquarters, it would be highly treasured. I even asked Ji Fuling to buy some, but unfortunately, they don't sell the seeds, and they only provide some mature grains."
Elder Chen shook his head.
The rice on the Dawu market is all mature, dehulled rice.
Even if they were lucky enough to buy some seeds, they could only cultivate them for one season. Without the Spirit Seed Converter, they couldn't breed the seeds themselves.
"Honoured elders, His Majesty has invited you all."
Under the guidance of Eunuch Wei, these elders from the Expanse Imperial Dynasty entered the Royal Palace one after another, coming to Imperial Study to meet Chu Yuan.
"You have all travelled a long distance, I apologise for my poor reception. According to Chairman Ji, you all have some business to ask for my help. I won't beat around the bush. Just say it straight. If it's within my ability, I won't shirk."
Chu Yuan sat atop the royal throne, looking down at these elders of the Infinite Trading Company. His gaze was locked on Elder Chen, who was at God Illumination realm.
"Seeing Elder Chen, are you still putting on airs?"
Wu Xian was very uncomfortable inside.
They were accustomed to being held in high regard. When they went to other Two Star Imperial Dynasties, they were worshiped as gods of wealth. Otherwise, if the Infinite Trading Company got angry and directly withdrew their branch, they would cease doing business within those Imperial Dynasties.
But Chu Yuan, so indifferent, immediately made him feel intolerable.
"Martial Emperor Dawu, I am Elder Chen of the Expanse branch from the Infinite Trading Company," Elder Chen introduced himself, "I heard that Your Majesty can mass produce Divine Elixirs. I came here to see your Alchemy area."
"Correct, I indeed can refine Divine Elixirs. It seems you have come to ask me to assist you in elixir production."
Said Chu Yuan.
"Exactly, I came here this time wondering if Your Majesty could refine Thousand Heart Elixir." Elder Chen said.
"Oh? Thousand Heart Elixir."
Chu Yuan searched for the Thousand Heart Elixir in the Taiyi Pill Furnace and indeed found it, he then said, "Thousand Heart Elixir, a top-grade Divine Elixir, is named thus due to each pill having thousands of small pores. The biggest effect of this pill is assisting those in the God Illumination realm to break through to the next realm more quickly."
"Your Majesty also knows about this Thousand Heart Elixir."
Elder Chen felt he had found the right person and said, "Although the Thousand Heart Elixir is a top-grade Divine Elixir, its complexity and difficulty in refining can be compared to some superior Divine Elixirs. Without concealment, I attempted to refine several in the trading company, but all ended in failures.
I heard from Fu Ling that Your Majesty might be able to help out, and so I came here to try."
Top-grade Divine Elixirs are not so easy to refine, anyone who can refine Divine Elixirs in the Expanse Domain are well-known figures, especially the Thousand Heart Elixir, which has a very sophisticated refining method.
The continuous failures left Elder Chen with no choice, so he considered giving it a last-ditch effort.
"That's not a problem, I can help."
Chu Yuan nodded. The Thousand Heart Elixir has a mild medicinal effect, which can not only be used by those in God Glimpse realm but also those in God Illumination, although not too many people are extravagant enough to use the Thousand Heart Elixir in the God Glimpse realm.
He said, "About the allocation, I'll take seven and you'll take three from each furnace, no matter how many elixirs are produced, the ratio will be the same. Chairman Ji must've mentioned it to you before."
"Wait a moment, I have one biggest issue!"
Wu Xian spoke again, "Elixir production is not something that can be done casually, an elixir like the Thousand Heart Elixir, which is even difficult for our Expanse branch to produce, where did you get such confidence that you can definitely refine it, does Dawu have such a skilled alchemist? What if it fails, for safety reasons, we would like to see how you refine it."
Hearing this, Elder Chen also nodded in agreement.
Recently, Dawu had provided them with too many Divine Elixirs, as if they were copied, which made him very doubtful.
Upon his arrival in Dawu, he also had one objective, which was to see how Chu Yuan refines the elixirs.
"Ridiculous, if I fail, I can compensate you for the materials." Chu Yuan said in an indifferent tone, "Besides, my alchemy process has always been conducted in secrecy. All you need to do is just wait here and collect the elixirs in the end. Where do all these demands come from?"
"Oh? So you're afraid to show us, in that case, I'm afraid this deal can't be concluded."
Wu Xian said.
"Interesting, how interesting, your words nearly made me think that I was the one begging you to refine the elixirs. Don't forget, this time it's you who are asking me. If you don't want to refine, Eunuch Wei, please see them out, you all can leave Dawu."
Chu Yuan waved his hand.
He used the Taiyi Pill Furnace to refine the elixirs, with a 100 percent success rate, there is no such thing as an alchemist serving him.
If they didn't trust him, Chu Yuan didn't bother forcing them, it was a waste of breath to argue with this group.
The funniest thing was, it seemed like the people from the Infinite Trading Company were the ones asking him for help in refining the elixirs, right?
