Although that might seem like a great feat to someone like Master Artemis, Karsha, who carries the legacy of the greatest alchemist ever to walk the path of alchemy, saw it as a poor performance and aimed to improve that, too.

Setting down the pill, he went back to making a new one. This time, he aimed to improve both the duration and the purity simultaneously. He had to since he wouldn\'t be able to sit in one place for long once he was sent to the snake island.

A little over 50 minutes later, he finished with the pill, only to achieve another 97% pure pill. However, he managed to lower the time to a little over 50 minutes, which was an improvement over the previous attempts.

He set that pill aside and started making a new one. In all three trials, he had only crafted King-grade pills. He hadn\'t yet attempted Earth-grade pills. Knowing he needed more experience, he refrained from taking on that challenge right away and continued to enhance his mastery with King-grade pills.

As time went by, Karsha made significant progress in reducing the amount of time required to concoct a single pill. Despite his efforts, he couldn\'t raise the purity level to 98%, but he didn\'t focus on that since he wanted to reduce the preparation time further before concentrating on purity again.

On the first day, he focused on reducing his preparation time, and soon, he was able to trim it down to a little over 30 minutes.

==============

Back at the sect, the three elders and the sect master wore solemn expressions.

"How is this possible?" Elder Chen exclaimed aloud. "The place is set to open in nine days. How could it have been shifted to just two days?" His voice was laced with shock.

"I have no idea either," the sect master replied, sounding even more shocked and grave. "All I know is that the kid has two days to prepare because the portal to Snake Island will be opening two days from today," he added.

"What are we going to do? We have not made any adequate preparations for him," Elder Lin asked. She had initially planned on concocting some pills for Karsha, but with only two days left, she wasn\'t sure she would be able to do that.

"We have to inform him, and I hope he manages to make some preparations on his end," Sect Master Xu said.

"I think that is a sound idea," Elder Lin agreed, and the other elders nodded in approval.

Taking out a communication token, Sect Master Xu began contacting Elder June, who was staring at Karsha with her jaw almost on the floor.

After a whole day of practicing, Karsha managed to lower the duration of each pill-making session to 30 minutes, and right when he accomplished that, he was able to make his first 98% pure pill.

But that was just the beginning. His next pill, instead of maintaining the usual purity level of 98%, rose to an astonishing 99%, mere breaths away from reaching the threshold of perfection—a purity of 100%.

Yet, it wasn\'t this achievement alone that left them in a state of shock. After Karsha successfully created the 99% pure pill, he ventured into crafting an Earth-grade pill. Aware of his wager with Master Artemis, everyone began to pay much closer attention to him.

To their surprise, it took him only 45 minutes to finish the pill. This was a significant improvement compared to his first trial. But even though this was impressive, it wasn\'t what captured their attention.

Their focus was on the purity level of the pill. The bet required him to make an 80% pure Rank 1 Earth-grade pill. However, when he retrieved the pill from the cauldron, they all experienced the shock of their lives.

The purity of the pill he crafted rose to 94%, astonishing everyone, including Master Artemis. They couldn\'t fathom the reality unfolding before them.

It\'s rare to see Earth-grade pills with 90% purity and above in this part of the continent, so witnessing something so extraordinary left them in great shock.

However, their moment of happiness and astonishment was interrupted when Elder June received grave news from her father, the sect master.

"What is wrong?" Karsha asked, noticing the grave look on Elder June\'s face.

"It\'s the portal to Snake Island; it will open two days from today," she replied softly.

"Well, that\'s unexpected but welcome," Karsha said, accepting the news without showing any surprise.

"Why are you so calm? You planned to make preparations over the next few days. Now, you have just one day to prepare. How is that a good thing?" Elder June, heartbroken by the sudden news, couldn\'t help but ask.

Karsha\'s composure seemed bizarre to her. A normal person would be freaking out right now.

"I knew the Great Families would do something like this, so I mentally prepared for it. Although it will throw a wrench into my plans, it\'s nothing I can\'t manage," he replied while tossing a few herbs into the cauldron.

"Nate, get my cauldron; Karsha needs all the help he can get," Master Artemis said. He knew Karsha was just being brave and, with his excellent knowledge of making antidotes, he knew he had to help.

"Thank you," Karsha said, giving him a slight nod before beginning to make a new pill to boost agility.

Seeing the young redheaded boy trying to be brave brought pain to the hearts of the three people standing around him. Elder June couldn\'t help but sigh. She knew there was nothing she could do to help.

All she could do now was pray that Karsha somehow managed to make adequate preparations before the time arrived.

\'You have to survive,\' she thought inwardly.

After a few hours of crafting, Karsha stood up and stretched. "Master Artemis, I will be out for a few hours. I hope you don\'t mind making some more pills for me," he asked, and the old man just nodded.

Karsha walked to a table and wrote some recipes. "I want three of each. I\'ll try to come back early so you won\'t have to do all the work," he added, handing the recipes to Master Artemis.

"This..." Master Artemis started to speak as he read the first recipe.

"No need, Old Man. This is just the start of our great friendship. There\'s more where this came from," Karsha said with a smile. Taking out three pills from his space ring, he handed them to Xian and Elder June.

"That\'s a transformation pill. Let\'s disguise ourselves and head to a place where I can buy some skill books," Karsha said. He swallowed the pill, and immediately, his face began changing into that of a completely different person. Even his height increased by a few inches.

\'Kalusha is going to be pissed when he sees this,\' Karsha thought, a small smile escaping his lips. His new appearance resembled one of his best friends, a soldier.

Xian also transformed into a completely different person. However, Elder June decided to change into a male rather than another woman.

"What?" she asked in a male tone when she felt their gazes on her.

"Nothing. You look handsome," Rasoul said, unable to hold back his laughter. His resounding laughter filled the room, and even Master Artemis couldn\'t help but smile.

"Well, I had to. They saw two boys and a lady enter. They will be expecting the same thing again, so I changed to a guy to avoid any unnecessary trouble," she explained, ensuring they understood her reasoning.

After changing their clothes, they left the Alchemy Guild without arousing any suspicion and began making their way to a place where they could buy skills and techniques.

"So, big bro, what are your plans when you get to the island?" Xian, who had been quiet since hearing the news a few hours ago, asked.

"I will spend the first few days cultivating since I am just a few steps away from breaking into the Grandmaster stage. I believe it will take me about two weeks to accomplish that. Then, I will spend another two weeks studying the ten overlords. Once I am confident I can defeat them, I will use the remaining 30 days to hunt them," Karsha said, revealing his grand plan.

Of course, he didn\'t mention that he would be taking it easy for the first couple of weeks since the system would activate 14 days after he entered the island.

"Sounds like a very simple plan. I hope all goes well," Xian said before lowering his head.

"Don\'t worry, Xian. I\'ve been through worse; the island is no different. I just have to stay alert and avoid wandering into the territory of any of the overlords until I am confident I can face them."

"I know that, big bro. But be careful. My grandpa said that place is no joke."

"I will, and don\'t worry. I\'ll bring back a lot of goodies for you and June here," Karsha said with a smile.

"Sounds weird. Just call me June," Elder June, who was finally beginning to feel more comfortable around Karsha, said. After all, she was only 45 years old. Karsha, of course, accepted the offer.

Shortly after, they entered a shop where Karsha would purchase the skills necessary to survive on the island. His choice today would determine the outcome in the coming days. Whether he selected the right skills or not would ultimately decide if he could survive the island and return.
