Wait, something's not right...
What Ye just said meant...
"I can leave the Pill Realm now?!"
Seeing that this simpleton had finally come to his senses, Ye Chen slowly said, "Well... that's possible. But we'll have to wait two years..."
"Two years later..." Xiong Zhan's domineering face wrinkled, then his eyes lit up, and he said, "Is it because of the Pill Gathering?"
The Alchemy Conference is held every thirty years, and judging by the timeline, the next Alchemy Conference is indeed about to begin.
Ye Chen nodded and said, "That's right. It's this Pill Gathering. I need you to do me a small favor during the assessment, and then I'll take you away from here..."
"Help? Help with what? Do you want me to help you cheat?" Xiong Zhan looked puzzled. Logically speaking, with Ye Chen's current strength, he shouldn't need to do that, right?
Ye Chen shook his head and said, "Of course not. I won't be participating in this pill-making competition. It's just that two friends of mine are going, and I need you to look after them and make sure they're not in any danger. It's not cheating."
"Friends?" Xiong Zhan swept his soul power and spotted Cao Ying and the other two women outside the stone hall. He immediately revealed a knowing smile that all men understand, patted his chest, and said, "No problem, Brother Ye! Leave it to me, I'll make sure your two little lovers are well protected!"
Ye Chen looked at this idiot speechlessly and couldn't help but say, "Don't talk nonsense. What little lover? They're just two of my friends..."
"Oh, friend, friend... I understand, I understand." Xiong Zhan slapped his forehead, pretending to suddenly realize something, but his winking and grimacing almost made Ye Chen want to slap him.
However, with Xiong Zhan's guarantee, Ye Chen no longer needed to worry about the two women causing any problems in the Pill Realm during the assessment.
After all, he is the king of magical beasts in the alchemy world. If he can't even do this much, then Ye Chen thinks it's better to let him live out his days in solitude in the alchemy world...
"Alright, that's all for now. We'll select some medicinal herbs and then head out..."
"Huh? You all want to choose..." Xiong Zhan's excited expression instantly deflated.
"What, is that not allowed?" Ye Chen glanced at him sideways and said.
"Uh, sure, why not? This originally belonged to the Dan Tower, hehe..." The bear had no choice but to bow its head under the eaves.
Seeing Xiong Zhan's pained yet forced smile, Ye Chen couldn't help but chuckle inwardly.
I can't control you anymore...
He summoned Cao Ying and Dan Chen, letting them meet Xiong Zhan to avoid any misunderstandings later. Then, Ye Chen, acting like the true "owner" of the place, led the two women to the plaza where countless rare medicinal herbs grew.
Seeing such a place for the first time, Cao Ying and Dan Chen were obviously shocked. Immediately, the two girls locked their eyes on the scene with shining eyes.
This scene terrified Xiong Zhan. He felt these two girls were even more frightening than Ye Chen...

Chapter 342 The Pill Gathering Approaches
Having obtained the medicinal herbs he needed, Ye Chen left with the two women, who were still somewhat reluctant to leave.
There was no other way; if they didn't leave soon, Ye Chen seriously doubted that this big guy Xiong Zhan would end up clinging to their legs, begging them to leave...
"Next, I will help Chen'er refine this Primordial Body Shaping Pill. Ying'er, if you have time, it would be best if you could stay and watch my pill-refining process..."
Although Cao Ying has already successfully refined eighth-grade pills, the Hunyuan Body Shaping Pill is a pill of four-color pill thunder. Taking a look at it beforehand can also increase her experience.
“Okay.” Cao Ying naturally wouldn’t refuse.
The Hunyuan Body Shaping Pill requires far fewer medicinal materials than the Six Yang Supreme Pill, almost a third less, so the difficulty of refining it is naturally much lower.
Ye Chen didn't even take out his Star Cauldron. He directly used the Strange Fire as a cauldron and smoothly refined the medicinal materials, which only took three days in total.
The two women were deeply shocked by this scene, secretly comparing themselves to it, and then felt somewhat disheartened...
Of course, setbacks are only temporary. If they were so easily discouraged, they wouldn't have reached their current level of success.
However, Cao Ying felt very strange.
"How did this guy do that?"
Even if the rumors are true, this eldest son of the Ye family is precocious, able to speak at the age of one and recognize characters at the age of two. But if he wants to memorize all the basic knowledge of medicinal properties and effects in that huge pharmacopoeia, it would probably take at least ten years.
Don't be fooled by Xiao Yan's remarkable achievement in alchemy despite being a latecomer to the field in the original novel; it's because the author gave him too many advantages.
In the original story, did you ever see Xiao Yan learn about the effects and properties of memory-enhancing herbs?
Such things only happen in action-packed novels; real alchemists need to spend their entire childhood memorizing the basic knowledge.
This can be seen by looking at Ye Chen's life before he was twelve years old. He didn't even improve his cultivation level, spending all his time on that.
And this became the cornerstone for his ability to improve his alchemy skills so quickly afterward!
Ten days later, the pill was finally formed. Seeing Ye Chen actually withstand the pill lightning with his physical body, the two women were once again greatly shocked.
During these ten days, what impressed the two women most was not the difficulty of refining the Primordial Body Shaping Pill, but Ye Chen's powerful performance in all aspects...
In fact, both women felt that Ye Chen's current alchemy skills and strength were probably surpassing their own ancestor!
Thinking of this, the two women looked at each other at the same time. After their eyes met, they both saw the indomitable flame burning in each other's eyes!
"I must catch up with him..."
The same thought arose in the minds of both women at the same time.
Ye Chen, completely unaware of this, accepted the pills, chuckled, and approached the two women, asking, "So, what did you gain?"
Both women nodded in unison, indicating that they had benefited greatly from observing Ye Chen's alchemy process.
This wasn't just empty talk; the two women had gained a lot of inspiration from Ye Chen's techniques for refining medicinal herbs, including his control of heat and even his use of soul power.
With this experience, the two women should be able to improve after careful study. "Alright, I've finished watching the alchemy demonstration. Now I'm going into seclusion." Cao Ying gave Ye Chen a deep look and said, "I won't leave seclusion until I've successfully refined a four-colored Thunder Pill!"
&n
After speaking, Cao Ying tossed her long hair and left gracefully.
Clearly, with the World Cup approaching, Cao Ying is about to launch her assault on the path to the championship...
Watching Cao Ying's departing figure, Dan Chen couldn't help but bite her lip, her eyes filled with determination and a defiant spirit.
Seeing this, Ye Chen smiled slightly. It seemed both women's competitive spirit had been ignited, which was good. He just didn't know whether this Pill Gathering would truly be their battleground, or if someone else would jump in and disrupt things…
Ruffling the girl's hair, Ye Chen chuckled, "Alright, stop looking. If you want to compete with her at the Pill Gathering, then the first thing you need to do is improve your physique and then raise your cultivation level. For you, alchemy is secondary..."
Two years should be enough time for Dan Chen to undergo a complete transformation and break through his cultivation level.
With her most important physical problem resolved, Ye Chen believed that her alchemy skills would improve no less than Cao Ying's...
"Yes, thank you, Brother Ye." Dan Chen nodded vigorously, her eyes full of determination.
With the Dan Gathering approaching, Saint Dan City is becoming increasingly lively.
Although there are still two years left, many alchemists have already begun to gather here, and many people have also started to flock to the trade fair, which has led to some rare and sensational items appearing at the Holy Pill City Trade Fair from time to time.
With the help of the Primordial Body Shaping Pill, Dan Chen's physique improved significantly, and his cultivation even broke through to the Dou Zong level.
All of this delighted the Dan family, who were extremely grateful to Ye Chen.
"Brother Ye, thank you so much for Chen'er's matter!" Upon arriving at Danxuan in Saint Pill City again and seeing Ye Chen, Danxuan immediately expressed his gratitude.
At this time, Ye Chen was still in seclusion, trying to break through to the eighth-grade alchemist, so Danxuan did not see her in person.
However, Danxuan's purpose in coming this time was not for Danchen, so it doesn't matter...
"Brother Dan, you're being too polite. I also consider Dan Chen my younger sister, so it's only right that I do these things," Ye Chen replied with a smile.
Danxuan nodded gratefully, but still took out a scroll that exuded a mysterious aura and handed it to Ye Chen.
"What does this mean?" Ye Chen frowned, then was drawn in by the mysterious aura emanating from the scroll.
Is this a soul scroll? Is it a soul skill or a secret technique for soul cultivation?
"Brother Ye, please don't misunderstand. This secret technique originated from the Dan family. After all, you not only helped guide Chen'er in alchemy, but also went to great lengths to refine a four-colored pill with lightning. If the Dan family didn't make a gesture, wouldn't they be considered impolite?"
"This fragment of the Soul Manual is an ancient method of soul cultivation passed down by the Dan family. Although incomplete, it still allows the cultivator's soul to have a chance to touch the mysteries of the spiritual realm. I hope you will not refuse, my worthy brother..."
This was something the Dan family patriarch had painstakingly found—the perfect thank-you gift for Ye Chen…
Although Ye Chen himself possessed a complete soul cultivation technique, it was inherited from the Pill Tower and could not be passed on to outsiders. Furthermore, Ye Chen's grandfather, Ye Chong, had been a peak seventh-grade alchemist for many years but had been unable to break through, precisely because the Ye family lacked this soul cultivation technique.
Now that the Dan family has offered this incomplete manuscript as a gift, it can be said that it has solved the Ye family's urgent problem!

Chapter 343 Promoting Childbirth
With the two women going into seclusion one after another, Ye Chen himself had some free time.
After spending a month refining medicine and replenishing his stock, Ye Chen left the Pill Tower and returned to the Ye family.
"It really is a secret method for cultivating the soul. The Dan family is really willing to spend so much!" Ye Zhong said in surprise as he looked at the gray scroll in his hand.
Clearly, Ye Zhong was well aware of the importance of this soul cultivation secret technique to an alchemist family. If the Ye family had such a heritage, then their ancestor Ye Xun might have already reached the eighth rank...
Ye Chen had anticipated Ye Zhong's reaction and chuckled, "I was also surprised when Dan Xuan took out this scroll. However, this thing is of great significance to my Ye family, so I didn't refuse..."
“Grandpa, your soul realm has been stuck at the peak of the mortal realm for many years now. With this soul secret technique, plus the earth core soul marrow and soul liquid that I have mixed, I think you will have a chance to touch the spirit realm!”
Upon hearing this, Ye Zhong's eyes lit up.
A spiritual realm...
For him, entering the Spirit Realm was a sure way to advance to the eighth-grade alchemist, which could be said to be the ultimate dream of countless alchemists.
Can’t wait!
After obtaining the Soul Secret Technique, Ye Zhong immediately went into seclusion again.
In the past few years, with Ye Chen away from home and Ye Zhong in seclusion, Ye Lan, as the head of the family, has enjoyed a few comfortable years...
Finally, I can enjoy the feeling of having absolute authority as the head of the family!
These past few years have also been the period of most rapid development for the Ye family...
With the large amount of precious medicinal herbs and high-grade pills provided by Ye Chen from time to time, the strength of the Ye family's higher-ups has been greatly improved.
The four elders, including Ye Zhong, have all broken through to the level of six-star Dou Zong or above. Elder Ye Zhong has not only improved his alchemy skills to the peak of the seventh rank, but his cultivation has also reached the level of nine-star Dou Zong. He is only one step away from becoming a Dou Zun!
As for the core members of the family like Ye Lan, their strength has also made leaps and bounds.
As Ye Chen's parents, Ye Lan and Song Chun'er have both reached the level of three-star Dou Zong. Song Chun'er's alchemy skills have even been successfully promoted to the seventh grade. In the Dan Domain, this would be considered as having moved beyond the "minion" stage.
Unfortunately, while strength can be forcibly improved through external means, alchemy skills still depend entirely on talent...
At present, the Ye family only has Ye Xinlan and Ye Yun as outstanding young alchemists. Apart from these two, there is not a single other person who has advanced to the fourth grade alchemist. This is quite a gap compared to the other four of the five major families.
"It seems the only way to solve this problem is for the older generation to have more children," Ye Chen said jokingly, looking at his father with a hint of helplessness.
In the patriarch's study, Ye Lan rolled her eyes at her son after hearing his words.
"Why rely on the previous generation? Their talent was just so-so, how could their children possibly have much talent?"
"I think if you really care about the family, you shouldn't rely on others, but should lead by example..."
Ye Chen glanced at his father, sensing that there was something more to his father's words.
Is this considered pressuring us to have children? Isn't it a bit too early? We're not even married yet...
Ye Lan, who could see right through her son's thoughts, remained calm and said quietly, "I know you don't have any intention of getting married right now, but no one says you can only have that right after you're married."
My child…
"You brat, aren't you surrounded by so many stunningly beautiful women? Why can't you work harder and contribute to the prosperity of the family?!"
you……
Ye Chen was speechless.
"Alright, alright, think this over carefully yourself. This isn't just my opinion; your mother thinks the same way..."
Feeling that his own influence might not be enough, Ye Lan had no choice but to bring his wife along as a bargaining chip.
Sure enough, upon hearing that it was his mother's idea, Ye Chen swallowed back the words he was about to say and could only change the subject, saying, "Well, we'll talk about that later..."
"Now that the Pill Gathering is approaching, and the Pill Tower's assessment of the five major families is also coming up, who do you plan to send?"
