Chapter 1303 — Chapter 1303  Creating Alchemy Flames

The prices for the alchemy flames were so outrageously expensive that Yuan doubted if his eyes were working properly.

'Am I seeing this right? One, two, three… nine digits?! Why the hell do these alchemy flames cost so much?!' Yuan had to count the digits two times before he could believe what he was seeing.

After confirming the prices, Yuan noticed the other information written beside each alchemy flame.

As Yuan read the additional effects granted by the alchemy flames, he started to understand why they are so astronomically expensive.

When the young woman saw Yuan's surprised expression, she couldn't help but let out a chuckle, "Named alchemy flames are very expensive due to their scarcity." "How does one 'discover' named alchemy flames?" Yuan then asked.

"Named alchemy flames are simply special alchemy flames with unique properties. They can be found anywhere in the world, and when they are discovered for the first time, the individual who discovered it may give it a name."

"Are named alchemy flames one-of-a-kind?"

"Certainly not. Most named alchemy flames have identical duplicates. In fact, the ones we have for sale at the moment exist elsewhere. However, certain alchemy flames are considered one-of-a-kind, as only one has ever been discovered to this day. If I recall correctly, there are exactly ten one-of-a-kind named alchemy flames in existence at the moment."

Yuan pondered for a moment before asking, "If I were to acquire nameless alchemy flames today, would it be difficult to change it in the future?"

"No, but you will need to learn how to control your new flames from scratch. Some experts also carry more than a single type of alchemy flame."

After learning all of this information about alchemy flames, Yuan pondered if he should spend 10 million spirit stones just to try out alchemy.

'While I have plenty of wealth after looting the Nameless Emperor's Tomb, it's not as though I have any spirit stones on me since I still need to sell the treasures.' He had planned on selling the Ancient-grade treasures he took from the Nameless Emperor's Tomb in the Fourth Heaven since there is more wealth in that place compared to the Third Heaven.

"Besides buying them, are there any other methods to acquiring alchemy flames?" Yuan suddenly asked.

"Of course. Most nameless alchemy flames are not found in the wild but created by Alchemists, you know."

"Eh? Really?"

The young woman nodded and said, "If you want to try creating your own alchemy flames, we can sell you the method to do so. It'll only cost 100 spirit stones."

"Huh? Why is it so cheap?" Yuan was surprised when he heard about the low price.

"While this method is public information, it's not something you can learn by going around asking people. Also, not everyone has the capability to create their own alchemy flames. Only one in a hundred thousand people have such talent."

"I'd like to purchase the method." Yuan decided a moment later.

"Okay, give me a second." The young woman reached underneath her desk and retrieved a thin book.

She handed it to him after being paid 100 spirit stones.

"We have seclusion rooms on the 20th floor if you wish to use them." The young woman said afterward.

"By the way, how long does it usually take to create alchemy flames?" Yuan asked.

"If you have the talent, it won't take more than several minutes."

"I see… thank you for all the help."

Yuan made his way to the 20th floor shortly after.

Upon arriving, he was greeted by several hallways with multiple closed doors in each hallway.

"Are you looking to use a room?" A worker there approached Yuan a moment later.

"Yes."

"That will be 5 spirit stones for 30 minutes with a limit of 2 hours per person. How long do you intend on staying?"

"30 minutes should be enough."

"I understand. Please, follow me."

The worker proceeded to lead Yuan to one of the available rooms.

After paying 5 spirit stones, Yuan entered the room.

The second the door closed, a timer appeared on the blank wall.

[29:59]

Yuan didn't waste any time and immediately started studying the book.

After memorizing the entire content in less than a minute, Yuan closed his eyes and began following the instructions on creating his own alchemy flame.

'Alchemly flames are essentially highly condensed spiritual energy. Just like air, when compressed enough, their temperature rises. However, that is just the basic logic behind it. Actual alchemy flames are on a completely different level.'

As he sat on the floor in the lotus position, Yuan positioned his hands to face each other with a few inches between them, almost like he was preparing to clap them. Within a few seconds, Yuan sensed a warm sensation enveloping his palms. This warmth steadily intensified until, eventually, a small ball of flame materialized between his hands.
