"In alchemy..."

"I'm The Strongest."

Yao Ling'er frowned upon hearing Baek Ain's arrogant words, snorting indifferently inside because the pill she was making was on the verge of breaking apart.

Soon, it would explode.

What could he do in this situation?

Nothing.

Yao Ling'er didn't know that her worldview in alchemy would turn upside down at this very moment.

Baek Ain smiled as he flicked his finger, creating a disturbance around the alchemy furnace of Yao Ling'er. The Spatial Strength squeezed and contracted back and forth, stabilizing the surrounding area.

Even if the lightning hit, they'd not get injured.

"Give me the roots of Red Lion's Mane Grass." He stretched his hand, leaving Yao Ling'er speechless.

"How did you-!" Yao Ling'er couldn't help but feel surprised.

Baek Ain sighed and waved his hand, "Hurry up. Do you want me to fix this thing or not?"

Yao Ling'er puffed her cheeks and indifferently gave the roots of Red Lion's Mane Grass to Baek Ain, wondering how he knew she had it.

Baek Ain picked the roots and cleaned them with Gnome's flame, burning the skin and refining the medicine inside. It took him less than two seconds to extract the pure medicinal liquid.

Throwing the liquid into the alchemy furnace, Baek Ain slowly enveloped the Yin Yang Cleansing Pill that Yao Ling'er attempted to make.

"..." Yao Ling'er couldn't believe her sense for a second.

The pill, which was about to explode, calmed down under this man's influence.

"That should give us five to seven minutes." Baek Ain commented, pondering the next step.

"How did you do it?" Yao Ling'er asked while blinking her eyes.

Baek Ain glanced at her and answered casually, "The Yin Yang Cleansing Pill you made is "decently." modified by using the alternative ingredient, it was a smart move but not smart enough as you used the wrong Dual-Typed Magical Beast's Core."

"Did you call me decent?" Yao Ling'er pride as one of two geniuses from the Yao Clan was hurt.

But to her question, Baek Ain shrugged and returned, "Your standard is barely enough to become an 8th Tier Alchemist."

"I noticed your Spiritual Strength is more powerful than others, and with your background in the famous Yao Clan, your current progress is more decent than anyone I knew."

"However, in my eyes... Such progress is not worth mentioning."

"Y-You!" Yao Ling was infuriated.

Baek Ain chuckled at her reaction and teased, "Are you mad?"

"Do you feel all your training and hard work insulted?"

"Lady Ling'er, can I call you that? Trust me, the realm of Alchemy is more than concocting pills and studying."

"You must walk to unknown territory, find your path and make it your specialty." He grinned foolishly.

"What's the use of following others when they can't break through the realm of Gods."

Yao Ling'er was stunned when listening to Baek Ain's words, entering a trance as if a new world had opened before her eyes. Like any other alchemist, she wanted to become the best.

BOOM!

CRACK!

One bolt of lightning escaped Roc's Spine's absorption and hit the roof of Yao Ling'er home, destroying it.

Baek Ain activated the Jade-like Enhancement and slapped the lightning away, directing it back to the Roc's Spine.

He glanced at the sky and saw the thunderclouds becoming red, having a slaughter aura. A frown appeared on his face because this wasn't a good sign.

Baek Ain gradually moved his gaze to Yao Ling'er and commented, "She's on the verge of becoming a Tier 8 Alchemist."

"Hmm..."

"Let's do this."

Since Yao Ling'er was so focused on her alchemy, she ignored most things and allowed Baek Ain to plant a parasite's egg on her.

The egg entered her bloodstream and flowed to her heart, finally settling on her brain. Baek Ain's new parasites are undetectable and extremely small, to the point of becoming nearly atomic level.

Baek Ain wanted his parasites to bond to Yao Ling'er DNA, but that wasn't possible. The King of Parasite Skill needed to become SSS Grade skill first.

"Here it comes." Baek Ain watched a crimson lightning fall.

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!

...

...

Yao Dan and the elder looked at the peak with a solemn expression.

They watched the thunderclouds disperse from the sky and reveal a light shower. A spear comes into their vision, possessing a lingering aura of Heavenly Slaughter Lightning.

"How terrifying..." Yao Dan murmured in disbelief.

But to their surprise, Baek Ain suddenly appeared from the rubble and grabbed the spear, waving it around to his heart's content.

Yao Ling'er appeared a second later, making them sigh in relief.

"Hmm?"

"This presence."

Yao Ling'er looked at the furnace in her hands. Her eyes were red because she couldn't believe this result.

A blood-colored pill floated out of the furnace and floated, giving off a powerful medicinal aroma.

"Congratulations." Baek Ain smiled at her.

"You have refined your first Holy Grade 8th Tier Pill."

"And becoming 8th Tier Pill."

Yao Ling'er bowed hurriedly and said, "Thank you, Grandmaster."

Baek Ain waved his hand casually and returned, "Like I said, in alchemy..."

"I'm the Strongest."

"So, Lady Ying'er."

"Are you willing to become my disciple?"

Hearing this, Yao Ling'er was dumbstruck before kowtowing on the ground, not afraid of dirtying herself.

"Yao Ling'er greeted the Teacher!"

"Get up. From now on, you're my disciple." Baek Ain nodded, his eyes gleaming with a bright plan.
