Ye Tianfan was somewhat puzzled, looking at Taichu Zhenren.
Ye Tianfan's confusion wasn't about why the Purifying Beast Pill appeared here?
Ye Tianfan was puzzled about what exactly the Purifying Beast Pill is.
After all, this was the first time Ye Tianfan heard the term, having never heard of such a thing before.
So Ye Tianfan asked the Yuan Chu Zhenren beside him, inquiring about what exactly the Purifying Beast Pill is, since from the name alone, it should be something very pure.
However, Ye Tianfan was curious about how this thing could withstand the presence of pure Spiritual Power, even though Ye Tianfan didn't yet know what this thing does or what it is, he could at least affirm it's definitely a good thing. Otherwise, ordinary things cannot resist the erosion of pure Spiritual Power or its purification.
Ye Tianfan was very clear about how powerful pure Spiritual Power is because it was Ye Tianfan who manufactured it. Of course, pure Spiritual Power wasn't invented by Ye Tianfan; he merely crafted it, but that's quite impressive.
Ye Tianfan's ability to craft pure Spiritual Power signifies his deep understanding of it, or else he wouldn't be able to convert it successfully. Thus, Ye Tianfan knows very well how powerful pure Spiritual Power is, yet facing this thing, pure Spiritual Power has no effect, making Ye Tianfan very curious.
And Ye Tianfan also passed this curiosity onto others, because not everyone could clearly know what the Purifying Beast Pill is, nor could everyone clearly know its origin.
At this point, Yuan Chu Zhenren began to explain to Ye Tianfan: "The Purifying Beast Pill is a magical material that guarantees high-quality returns whether used for Artifact Refining or Alchemy. If integrated into Artifact Refining, it essentially ensures a Supreme Magical Treasure. This is no boast, even Bai Feng Junior Nephew could craft a Supreme Magical Treasure using the Purifying Beast Pill, and in Alchemy, it would yield the highest-grade pills."
Upon hearing Yuan Chu Zhenren's words, Ye Tianfan was even more bewildered. Even though he knew the item was formidable, Ye Tianfan wanted to inquire about its origins.
Thus, Ye Tianfan questioned Yuan Chu Zhenren again, focusing on where this Purifying Beast Pill comes from.
Yuan Chu Zhenren nodded at Ye Tianfan's words and continued: "The Purifying Beast Pill is rare and elusive. As for how it's formed? No one knows, but the only known fact is that it forms inside certain Demon Beasts. Yet, the specifics are undocumented, and no one knows within which Demon Beast it appears. It's been thousands of years since one was last seen, and it's uncertain if this speculated pill is indeed the Purifying Beast Pill, so no rash judgments are made."
Ye Tianfan finally learned the origin of the Purifying Beast Pill; however, he still had no clue how it's formed. The only certainty was that understanding it thoroughly could lead to mass production.
But it requires enough energy for Ye Tianfan to convert, respecting the law of energy conservation. One cannot create energy from nothing, even if Ye Tianfan uses the Chaos Treasure Lotus to convert Demonic Qi, Evil Qi, and other negative auras into the simplest Spiritual Power; it's still equivalent conversion. Naturally, losses occur during conversion, which is normal, even this eternal Magical Treasure can't convert one-to-one perfectly.
At this point, Ye Tianfan's eyes were drawn to Taichu Zhenren, who was using a glove to pick up the small sphere—namely, the Purifying Beast Pill—and inspect it closely.
Moreover, not only was Ye Tianfan fixated on Taichu Zhenren, but everyone present was watching him closely since they had to wait for his final verdict. If Taichu Zhenren deemed it the Purifying Beast Pill, then it heralded the emergence of a Supreme Magical Treasure. Yet if he said the small sphere wasn't the Purifying Beast Pill, then it indicated no connection with a Supreme Magical Treasure.
Ye Tianfan knew that even if the item wasn't related to a Supreme Magical Treasure, it's still exceptional, as its endurance against pure Spiritual Power's purification proves it's no common item.
Taichu Zhenren sized up the small sphere, scrutinizing it, then probing with Spiritual Power. After contemplating, he declared to the crowd, "It indeed is the Purifying Beast Pill."
The crowd erupted upon hearing this, though Ye Tianfan wasn't sure why they were so excited. At least Ye Tianfan knew their exploration beyond the walls was fruitful; they've acquired a Supreme Magical Treasure.
However, Ye Tianfan struggled to comprehend their exhilaration, given he possessed many Supreme Magical Treasures and even two Treasures of Heaven and Earth, lacking the concept of scarcity others faced.
So Ye Tianfan wondered, is a Supreme Magical Treasure worth such joy? It's merely one item within a sect, and only one person within the sect will ultimately wield it, so why all the excitement?
What Ye Tianfan didn't know was that discovering the Magical Treasure meant splitting the rewards. Whoever acquires the Purifying Beast Pill must allocate equivalent resources to other sects, essentially offering matching resources for this Purifying Beast Pill.
Yet despite this, every sect would compete over equivalent resources since, without the Purifying Beast Pill, crafting a Supreme Magical Treasure is improbable. With the Purifying Beast Pill, crafting one is straightforward—as simple as eating—as long as the process isn't haphazard.
Of course, this logic eludes Ye Tianfan, who owns several Supreme Magical Treasures.
