章節 94: Chapter 94: The Challenge of Elemental Transmutation
Grandmaster Yuan's entrance into the Alchemy Lab was like a gust of wind that drew every eye in the room to him. With the kind of regality that only comes with immense expertise, he remarked, "After such a long time, a promising alchemy genius finally walks into this hall. I hope I won't be disappointed."
His gaze settled on Li Yang, and recognition flashed in his eyes, "Aren't you the rookie that Zephyr introduced a while ago?"
Zephyr, with his usual confident demeanor, stepped forward. "Ah, Yuan, it feels like just yesterday when we collaborated on that mission in the Whispering Woods, doesn't it?"
Grandmaster Yuan chuckled, reminiscing, "Indeed. That mission was challenging. The volatile essence we had to extract from those ancient trees... Ah, and the mishap with the wind spirits."
Zephyr laughed heartily, "Ah, yes, that was quite a day. We had to calm those spirits for hours. Good times. But look here, it seems our young Li Yang might become your disciple soon."
Grandmaster Yuan arched an eyebrow, a playful smirk tugging at his lips. "We'll see about that."
Without further ado, he wanted to test Li Yang's mettle. With a dramatic flourish, grandmaster Yuan lifted a standard gold ring for all to witness. Meticulously, he placed various alchemical materials into the furnace in a calculated sequence. With a steady chant of a complex incantation and intricate hand movements over the furnace, an intense glow emerged. Once the gleam receded, instead of the gold ring, there lay a ring embodying the fluidity of water. The feat was a masterclass in the art of elemental transmutation - a metamorphosis from metal to water, a secret known to very few.
The atmosphere in the room grew thick with anticipation. Li Yang felt a weight of expectation on his shoulders but remained undeterred. He had been observing closely, and with a nod from grandmaster Yuan, it was his turn.
Channeling his focus, Li Yang took a deep breath and began his replication attempt. Every grain, every metal piece, every drop he introduced into the furnace was measured and deliberate. Drawing inspiration from the grandmaster's technique, he recited the same incantation, though with his unique inflection, making it slightly different. His hands danced gracefully over the furnace in fluid motions.
Time seemed to slow. All eyes were pinned on the furnace, waiting for that signature flash. And then it happened. A brilliant burst of light mirrored that of grandmaster Yuan's, and as it subsided, an identical water-imbued ring rested there.
The room erupted in applause. Grandmaster Yuan looked impressed, nodding in approval, "Very well done. Your talent is undeniable, young one."
Zephyr wore a proud smile, patting Li Yang on the back, signaling the initiation of an exciting journey in the world of alchemy for the young prodigy.
