Chapter 545: Reincarnation of the Alchemy God

"You still have time to drink here? Master Ye's lecture is about to start! If you don't go now, there won't be any seats left!"

"Master Ye? Who's that?"

The man looked at the other as if he were an alien, his face full of disdain.

"You don't know Master Ye? He's the grandson of the City Lord's Mansion, Master Ye Yuan! Master Ye has been giving lectures at the Thousand Questions Wall for five days straight, answering questions and resolving doubts. If you miss this chance, there won't be another!"

"Ah? The newly acknowledged grandson of the City Lord? Isn't he only in his teens? How can he give lectures?"

"What have you been busy with these days? Master Ye's lectures have taken Wufang City by storm, and you don't even know! Master Ye is practically the reincarnation of the Alchemy God. His knowledge of alchemy is profound and all-encompassing; he knows almost everything! If you can get guidance from Master Ye, it's better than ten years of hard work! Even Alchemy Emperors are now asking him questions!"

"Hiss... A teenager guiding an Alchemy Emperor? My god..."

"Forget it, I can't be bothered with you. You keep wasting your time here. I'm off to the Linlang Pavilion!"

With that, the man left like a gust of wind.

Today was the last day of Ye Yuan's lectures. Over these five days, Ye Yuan's reputation had spread throughout Wufang City.

The name Master Ye was now known to almost everyone in Wufang City.

Every alchemist, whether a lowly apprentice or master, or a lofty Alchemy Emperor, considered it an honor to receive guidance from Master Ye.

The hall at the Thousand Questions Wall was nearly bursting at the seams. At this time, it was packed with people.

Wufang City's alchemy was extremely prosperous, with a large number of alchemists.

Yet these days, whenever Ye Yuan gave his lectures, the city was almost deserted.

The once bustling markets were now devoid of customers.

After the first day, the alchemists who stayed to listen became Ye Yuan's devoted followers, tirelessly spreading the name of Master Ye.

On the second day, the number of people in the Linlang Pavilion skyrocketed, ten times that of the first day.

However, most of these people came with a skeptical attitude, just to take a look.

As usual, Ye Yuan spoke about very basic topics.

But after the second day, no alchemist doubted Ye Yuan's ability anymore.

Word spread from one to ten, ten to a hundred. By the third day, Ye Yuan's lectures had swept through all of Wufang City.

Now, even the Alchemy Emperors in the city came to seek him out.

Among them were people like Wu Xuan and Cao Zheng.

By today, Cao Zheng realized how wise his decision had been to offer the Linlang Pavilion to the City Lord's Mansion.

With Ye Yuan around, the Thousand Questions Wall was a joke!

Over these days, many formidable individuals had posed various questions to Ye Yuan.

But no matter their level of expertise, no matter how tricky or obscure the questions, Ye Yuan's answers were always precise and detailed, leaving no room for fault.

This level of skill was beyond imagination.

Even Dan Chenzi and Ren Xingchun could not have achieved such a feat.

Most importantly, Ye Yuan answered these questions almost offhandedly, as if he didn't need to think at all.

To those alchemists, this was a godlike state.

These alchemists had no idea what an Alchemy God truly was, yet they bestowed upon Ye Yuan the title "Reincarnation of the Alchemy God."

In truth, to them, Ye Yuan was indeed like a god.

At least in alchemy, the level Ye Yuan surpassed them by could not be measured by mere cultivation realms.

For unknown existences, people often like to attach the title of "god."

Such was the case with Ye Yuan now.

"Alright, everyone, quiet down." Ye Yuan's voice came calmly.

At that moment, it was as if all sound in the world was sucked away. The hall, which could hold a hundred thousand people, suddenly fell into dead silence.

Everyone held their breath, afraid of missing a single word Ye Yuan spoke.

"Today, we will discuss..."

Ye Yuan began his lecture unhurriedly. Once again, only his voice echoed through the hall.

Originally, with only a few thousand people, it was easy to maintain silence.

But now the number had exceeded a hundred thousand, yet they still maintained this state. This showed how captivating Ye Yuan's lecture was to them!

As in previous days, Ye Yuan's lecture still covered only the most basic topics.

These were things the alchemists knew inside out, yet after five days of listening, they still found it fascinating.

For the same medicinal herb, the same refining technique, Ye Yuan's explanation was completely different from their understanding.

He not only brought novelty but also elevated the discussion.

Among these alchemists, many had been there since the first day. After returning, they had tried refining pills using Ye Yuan's methods.

They were shocked to find that even the simplest things Ye Yuan mentioned were applicable to refining high-grade pills!

The quality of the pills they refined had improved significantly!

This was why their admiration for Ye Yuan grew stronger.

Today, Ye Yuan covered a lot of material, from morning until dusk.

"Alright, the lecture ends here. The Thousand Questions Wall will remain open as usual. If you have any questions, you can come here to ask." Ye Yuan said calmly.

Only then did the crowd realize that the five-day lecture series was over, and Ye Yuan would no longer teach them.

"Master Ye, please give us three more days of lectures! No, even just one more day would be fine!"

"Yes, Master Ye! These days of listening to your lectures have benefited me immensely, more than ten years in seclusion! Please, just one more day!"

"Master Ye, teach us a bit more!"

...

Ren Dong stepped forward and said loudly, "Stop this nonsense! My master also needs to cultivate. How can he spend all his time lecturing you? If you ask him to add one day today, will you ask him to add another tomorrow? Where will it end?"

As Ye Yuan's status rose, Ren Dong, his disciple, also became a hot figure in Wufang City.

In a daze, Ren Dong felt like a disciple of a sage.

This feeling of being above the masses was something he had never experienced as the young master of the City Lord's Mansion.

Now, having shed the identity of young master, Ren Dong instead felt a sense of freedom, like a bird soaring in the sky.

Scolded by Ren Dong, no one in the audience dared to retort.

But they still looked at Ye Yuan with burning eyes, hoping he would change his mind.

Ye Yuan sighed and said, "It's not that I'm unwilling to continue. Tomorrow, I will go to the Haotian Secret Realm to challenge the Haotian Legacy. I simply cannot do it."
