116 Pill Making Genius, Part Two (2/2)

After this question was asked, everyone fell silent.

Old Man Guan sighed in his heart, was this question way too hard?

Those that were able to answer this question were all pill masters.

“Thousand year ice snow lotus contains the essence of snow and ice and it is one of the main components of the Snow Spiritual Pill. The blood and brains of the Sharp Skinned Spiritual Monkey are slightly Yang and it is the second major component. The Three Sprout Emerald Grass is a soothing material, which has the ability to calm one down… ”

Zhao Feng listed out a total of thirty-four components and their respective elements, and how they were supposed to be mixed. When he finished, Old Man Guan and Yun Yao had their mouths hanging open.

Princess Yun Mengxiang’s heart trembled; she didn’t want to believe that this youth in front of her had surpassed her in terms of pill making.

After a while Old Man Guan let out a sigh as he looked deeply at Zhao Feng. “Great! This question has already surpassed what we agreed on.”

He obviously knew that this question had exceeded what they planned before, but his intention was to flame down Zhao Feng’s arrogance. Contrarily, this showed how monstrous Zhao Feng really was.

“You didn’t know a thing a few days ago, so how did you know how to make the Snow Spiritual Pill?” Yun Yao asked curiously. She was suspicious that Zhao Feng had learned pill making before.

“Haha, it’s all thanks to you. If you hadn’t given me the Ten Thousand Plant Illustrations before, I wouldn’t have been able to answer this question,” Zhao Feng laughed lightly.

Ten Thousand Plant Illustrations?

Old Man Guan paused, then looked towards Yun Yao as if asking ‘what’s going on?’

Yun Yao’s heart tightened and she immediately told the story of how she recommended the Ten Thousand Plant Illustrations to Zhao Feng.

With Vice Head Guan’s experience, how could he not see Yun Yao’s intentions?

“Hmph! So what if you’ve read the Ten Thousand Plant Illustrations? There are literally tens of thousands of compositions in there, and you just happened to memorize the composition of the Snow Spiritual Pill?” Princess Yun Mengxiang snickered coldly. She was also suspicious that Zhao Feng had studied pill making before.

“I’ve not only memorized the Snow Spiritual Pill composition, I’ve memorized the entire contents,” Zhao Feng replied mockingly.

The entire book?

Yun Yao and Princess Yun Mengxiang’s hearts shook.

“Are you saying…that you’ve memorized the entire Ten Thousand Plant Illustrations…?” Old Man Guan stood up excitedly. With his near one hundred years of experience, he obviously knew geniuses who could memorize everything they saw. For example, Bei Moi was one of them, but in terms of memory, even Bei Moi wasn’t as good as Zhao Feng.

Zhao Feng didn’t truly memorize everything, it was more ‘photocopying’ the things he saw into his mind. Even a complex picture or martial art could be photocopied into his memory.

“That’s right, it’s just memorizing everything I see,” Zhao Feng said casually.

His words caused the others to be shocked; a genius who could memorize everything by only reading it once could save years of study. Furthermore, Zhao Feng had memorized the entire Ten Thousand Plant Illustrations, which took others tens of years to accomplish.

To prove that this was true, the three each came up and asked a series of questions from the Ten Thousand Plant Illustrations. The three asked about odd topics and rare plants, but their questions were answered perfectly by Zhao Feng.

This was way too damn depressing!

The three were speechless, especially Princess Yun Mengxiang and Yun Yao. But inside Old Man Guan’s heart, there was more excitement.

That day at the third test, he saw that Zhao Feng had great understanding and he was precise, which was a must for pill making. But he didn’t think that Zhao Feng’s true talent was so much more terrifying.

“Vice Head Guan, you won’t stop me now, right?” Zhao Feng laughed.

Black lines appeared on Old Man Guan’s brow as he twitched. “Go and hit some steel walls, so you know how high the heavens actually are.”

Old Man Guan had no way to restrain this disciple. He was expecting Zhao Feng to be beaten so that he would go back on the ‘right track’.

“Hehehe, I’ll go and watch as well,” Yun Mengxiang was excited as well.

“Go.” Yun Yao waved her hands and like that, Zhao Feng and Princess Yun Mengxiang left the Grass-Wood Division and they headed towards the Outer Clan Hall.

It was at the same Outer Clan Hall where Zhao Feng’s ‘first true battle’ had started.
