Chapter 692 Doubts
Ten and a half months’ time, for a Dao Emperor Realm Practitioner, truly flits by in the blink of an eye. Even Martial Artists of the Innate Realm might meditate in seclusion for one or two months at a time.
For a powerful martial artist to close their eyes and meditate, even a slight insight into Martial Arts might not be achieved in half a month’s time.
After the words of the Third Hall Master had fallen, the other Hall Masters also shifted their gazes toward Saint Master Shen Chong.
"If any Hall Master wishes to wait in the front hall, you may," Shen Chong nodded and said.
"Then, I will wait in the front hall for the Great Alchemist King Jing Yan to finish refining the Elixir. Jing Yan, the Great Alchemist King has said that ten and a half months is enough for alchemy. If there are any unforeseen complications, one month’s time should surely suffice," the Third Hall Master said with ill intent.
He intended to wait and watch Jing Yan’s misfortune unfold.
When he disagreed with Jing Yan taking up the position of Ten Hall Masters, Jing Yan had fiercely opposed him, which left him extremely dissatisfied. The Third Hall Master, with his naturally narrow mind, how could he tolerate the defiance of Jing Yan, a man in his thirties?
All nine Hall Masters remained, not a single one leaving temporarily; they all stayed in the front hall.
"The Ten Thousand Spirit Returning to Origin Pill is not a common Elixir; failure in its refinement is normal," the Eighth Hall Master frowned and remarked.
He was preparing for the eventuality of Jing Yan’s failure in the refinement process.
Although the Eighth Hall Master Min Huo didn’t have much interaction with Jing Yan, he was a person of magnanimous temperament; seeing the Third Hall Master deliberately suppress Jing Yan in such a manner made him quite uncomfortable.
"The Eighth Hall Master is right. Even if the Great Alchemist King Jing Yan doesn’t succeed in refining the Ten Thousand Spirit Returning to Origin Pill, I think it is normal," the Seventh Hall Master Leng Hongying said with a smile.
