The Divine God Against The Heavens Chapter 73
Ye Xiao returned to the inn where he was staying and went to his room.
After returning, Ye Xiao again disappeared from his room and appeared in the Grassland within the world of Heavenly Pearls.
Before exiting the Cloud Smoke Forest, Ye Xiao sent Little Yellow into the world of Heavenly Pearls so as not to attract anyone's attention.
He searched Little Yellow in Grassland for a few times but failed to find him so he thought maybe Little Yellow went into the forest because it was very agitated to go there when coming here for the first time.
Thinking of this, Ye Xiao ignored Little Yellow's matter because he didn't know how to call him back here.
Now that he had obtained the Fire Beast as his Fire Soul, Ye Xiao could begin refining his pills. But in order to refine pills, he must have a cauldron. And since then, he didn't have the cauldron.he planned to buy it. But in order to purchase a cauldron to refine medicinal pills, one needed a lot of money.
Ye Xiao left again and arrived in front of a small mountain surrounded by twelve large mountains after crossing the river. There he again saw twelve small caves on a small mountain that led to twelve large mountains.
There was still a barrier of light at the mouths of the eleven caves. He entered into a cave that had no barrier of light. It was a cave that led to a huge mountain containing a Low-tier Spirit Stone.
Last time when he came here, Ye Xiao mined a total of 1,000 Low-tier Spirit Stones. And out of those 1,000 Low-grade Spirit Stones, he auctioned off 100 spirit stones. So, he still had 900 spirit stones.
This time, he went back to mining spirit stones and came out of the cave after about four hours. This time, he mined a total of 4,100 Low-grade Spirit Stones and after adding 900 spirit stones earlier. He had a total of 5,000 Low-tier Spirit Stones. That was an extremely large sum for a martial artist from the Qi Condensation Realm.
He went back to mining this many spirit stones because he did not want to come and mine again and again in such a short period of time. He needed to waste a lot of money on refining pills. So, he mined many of these spirit stones at once.
After mining the spirit stones, he returned again to Grassland in hopes of seeing Little Yellow there but he was disappointed. So he immediately left and appeared again in his room.
Then he came down to eat some food and after eating he left the inn again and walked towards the direction of the Alchemist Association.
Some time later, Ye Xiao reached his goal. He stopped in front of the Alchemist Association. After taking a deep breath, he went inside.
He looked back at those raw shelves, containing many kinds of herbs and pills, but this time, he was here to buy a cauldron. So, he went to the clerk and asked, “Sorry, I'm here to buy the cauldron. Can you introduce it to me.”
Hearing that Ye Xiao was planning to buy the cauldron, the attendant was startled and hurriedly smiled and said, “Master, are you and the alchemist?”
“Not now. But, I'll be soon.” Ye Xiao smiled gently and said.
When the attendant heard this, his smile disappeared in thin air and was replaced with contempt, “Huh!, We do not sell cauldrons in the Alchemist Association. We only sell medicinal herbs and pills. If you want to buy these items then say otherwise, go to the Treasury Pavilion. Maybe you can find the cauldron there.”
Ye Xiao was surprised after seeing the response from the officer. The attendant changed his color once he heard that he was not an alchemist. He could not help but praise this officer's ability in his heart.
Ye Xiao did not say anything. He thought that arguing with the officers was just a waste of time. So he started walking towards the exit of the Alchemist Pavilion.
“Stop.”
Just as he was about to walk out of the door of the Alchemist Association, he heard someone's voice.
He stopped and turned around only to see a healthy old man with a long white beard smiling at him. The old man smiled and said, “Adik, I heard you are here to buy the cauldron.”
“Grandmaster.” As soon as the officer saw the old man, he respectfully called out to him and bowed.
“Is he Grandmaster Wang. Oh my God, did I see something.”
“No, he really is Grandmaster Wang.”
“Didn't he always be upstairs, concocting pills every day. What he does here.”
“How do I know about this. But he was talking to the boy. Do you know which young master of the family he is.”
…..

Pill refiners are also divided into many categories.
Those who could refine a tier 1 pill were called Alchemy Apprentices. Those who can refine tier 2 and tier 3 pills, are called Alchemy masters. Those who can refine tier 4 and tier 5 pills are called Grandmasters of alchemy. And those who can purify tier six pills and above are called Pill Kings.
Grandmaster was already an extremely rare existence in a small country like the Azure Dragon Country. Especially the Pill King. Many large countries might not have Pill King.
Pill Kings were known as legendary existences due to their rarity. Only a great empire like the Great Xia Empire had a Pill King.
So, when Ye Xiao heard that the old man in front of him was an alchemy Grandmaster, he respectfully cupped his hands and replied, “Grandmaster Wang, he said, I did come here in hopes of buying a cauldron. But I don't know that the Alchemist Association doesn't sell cauldrons here. Sorry about that. I'll go first.”
After finishing his sentence, Ye Xiao turned around and just as he was about to walk towards the exit, he again heard the old man's voice.
“Wait.”
“Grandmaster Wang, do you need anything.” Ye Xiao asked suspiciously.
“We, the Alchemist Association, do not sell the cauldron here but I have a spare cauldron. It was given to me by my master when I managed to become an Alchemy Master. If you want it then I can give it to you as a gift.” Grandmaster Wang smiled gently at Ye Xiao.
When Ye Xiao heard this, he also understood the deepest meaning of this so he asked, “And what should I do to make Grandmaster Wang give the cauldron to me as a gift?”
When Grandmaster Wang heard this, he laughed out loud and said, “I like straightforward people like you. Okay, I'll get to the point. Be my student and I will give you the cauldron as our meeting gift.”
Sizzling…
When the crowd heard this, they could not hold a long breath. Everyone started looking at Ye Xiao with envy and jealousy.
“Who is the child. Grandmaster Wang wanted to make him his student.”
“I don't know. But he must have talent in alchemy. Perhaps that was why Grandmaster Wang wanted to take him as his disciple.”
“Even Chu Feng from the Heaven Sword Sect was rejected by the Grandmaster two years ago, but now Grandmaster Wang himself said that he wanted this child as his disciple.”
….
….
Many people started gossiping amongst themselves after hearing Grandmaster Wang.
When Ye Xiao heard this, he could not help but be surprised. Many questions began to come to his mind such as …
Why does Grandmaster Wang want me as his disciple?
Did he find the Heavenly Pearl?
….
“Eh!, Grandmaster Wang, may I ask?” Ye Xiao did not answer Grandmaster Wang's question instead he asked permission to ask a question.
Grandmaster Wang smiled and said, “You can ask.”
“Why do you want to take me as your student?” Ye Xiao asked the question that came to his mind as soon as Grandmaster Wang asked him to ask.
“Because, I can feel the fire energy coming out of you. If I'm not wrong means you just finished absorbing the fire soul right.” Grandmaster Wang did not immediately answer him, but rather he transmitted his voice to Ye Xiao's ears. Fire Soul was extremely rare in the Azure Sky Continent after all and knowledge of it was also kept secret by experts.
Ye Xiao was again surprised after hearing this. he nodded his head and said, “Grandmaster Wang is right. Yesterday, I finished absorbing the Fire Beast.”
