Buzzing!
The array platform in the refining area suddenly lit up, emitting a blinding white light after being silent for a long time. Qin Chen split his eighth-tier spiritual power into two streams, one controlling the alchemy furnace, while the other instantly integrated into the array platform, taking control of the refining area's formation.
"Damn, has this kid gone mad?" Kang Sitong's eyes nearly popped out; he felt that he had never been this shocked in his life.
While refining pills, he was also activating the refining area's formation, multitasking—was he serious? This was simply courting death. If Qin Chen were refining only some fifth or sixth-tier ordinary pills, Kang Sitong might not have been so astonished, but he was clearly refining at least a seventh-tier king pill. Was he really this reckless?
Naturally, Qin Chen paid no mind to Kang Sitong's shock. Once the formation was activated, several purple-black crystal sands suddenly appeared in his hand, which he lightly tossed onto the refining area's platform.
Dozens of purple-black crystal sands landed on the platform like stars in the sky.
"Six-Point Refining Array, activate!"
With a hand seal, Qin Chen shouted, and the originally complex formation instantly transformed into a six-point star pattern. The immense refining power emitted from the star shattered the purple-black crystal sands, turning them to dust.
Qin Chen formed another hand seal, and the dust suddenly seemed to lose gravity, suspended just an inch above the platform. Then, he took out the Divine Spell Gold Crystal obtained from Wanbao Building, flicked his finger, and whoosh, the fist-sized Divine Spell Gold Crystal landed at the center of the formation, enveloped by numerous crystal powder particles.
"This kid actually took out the Divine Spell Gold Crystal; does he intend to refine it?" Kang Sitong looked incredulous.
The Divine Spell Gold Crystal was an eighth-tier imperial material. What did imperial material mean? It meant only ordinary eighth-tier imperial alchemists could control and refine these materials, and this kid thought he could refine the Divine Spell Gold Crystal on his own—was this any different from dreaming?
At this moment, Qin Chen's expression also became serious, as though divine light bloomed within his eyes. Clang! He took out the mysterious rusty sword, and with a full-force infusion of true essence, he slashed down at the Divine Spell Gold Crystal at the center of the formation. A substantial sword Qi descended; with a boom, the Divine Spell Gold Crystal was instantly shattered into countless tiny pieces.
A flash of light suddenly passed through his brow, and an invisible bloodline power spread out. Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle! It seemed that lightning surged around the Divine Spell Gold Crystal, and under the guidance of the lightning, the fragments of the Divine Spell Gold Crystal and the purple-black crystal powder fused together, constantly pulsating under the refining of the formation.
The pulsating process started slowly, gradually speeding up until, in the end, the frequency was so fast that the naked eye could hardly distinguish it. Impurities dissipated as they jumped, then were drawn outside by the formation, forming waste residue.
Yet, the Divine Spell Gold Crystal and purple-black crystal powder at the center of the formation grew brighter and brighter, becoming more crystal clear after the impurities were removed, shining radiantly under the glow of the formation.
If any refining master saw this scene, they would be utterly shocked, as Qin Chen’s methods of activating the formation, refining impurities, and merging materials were completely different from those of ordinary refiners, making them difficult to comprehend.
Qin Chen's rich experience from his previous life compensated for his insufficient current cultivation. What could only be refined by an imperial alchemist, he was able to accomplish with the prowess of a seventh-tier king alchemist with ease.
Of course, this meant nothing to Qin Chen; in his previous life, he only reached the peak of Martial Emperor but could refine ninth-tier divine weapons, which was a myth in the Martial Domain.
