outed a guard loudly.……After a while, the Emperor's leaning pavilion.A man with an elegant countenance is meditating in a quiet room, his eyes closed."Third Master, something big has happened!"Just th..."I, I know, Dad." Yu Shijie nodded.

Yu Nan looked at Yu Shijie and snorted with disdain.

……

As time passed, fewer and fewer people remained in the square, most having already entered the stone gate.

“You two, you can go now.” the two disciples said to Fang Yu and Lin Batian.

Fāngyǔ and Lín Bátīan then slowly walked into the stone gate.

"Think of me, the Overlord Lin Batten. How many years has it been since I was last punished to stand What a rare experience." Lin Batten sighed with emotion.

"You brought this upon yourself. Don't complain after dragging me down with you," Fang Yu said.

As the two people walked to a bend in the mountain path ahead, Qin Lang was waiting for them there.

"Up ahead is the main hall where the alchemy competition will be held. Let's go there." Qin Lang said.

Three people walked together and soon arrived at the main hall.

This is a large, ancient pagoda, and the main hall is on the first floor of the pagoda.

Due to the previous difficulties, Fang Yu and his group were the last to arrive at the hall.

At this time, inside the main hall, there were crowds of people standing shoulder to shoulder.

Before everyone was a platform made of stone.

On the high platform, stood more than twenty people.

These people all look to be in their fifties or sixties. Most of them are wearing black square hats and carrying small braziers the size of a face.

"Welcome everyone to the Alchemy Grand Assembly. This year, we have a total of twenty-nine alchemists participating... It's the largest gathering of alchemists in three sessions. This time, all the alchemists will be showcasing their latest achievements..." On the stage, Elder Seven, who had greeted them earlier, used his true qi to amplify his voice and said.

"What is the main purpose of the Alchemical Assembly" Fang Yu asked Qin Lang beside him.

"Each alchemist showed off the pills they had refined, and if anyone in the audience was interested, they could place an order on the spot to buy them in bulk." Qin Lang said, "It's actually similar to a product showcase."

"Oh." Fang Yu nodded.

"These are the so-called alchemists" Lin Batten asked in surprise.

"Well, they must be the alchemists participating in this Alchemy Conference and responsible for the demonstration." Qin Lang received.

"Uh..." Lin Batten opened his mouth and looked at Fang Yu.

"Don't be so surprised, it's not bad that there are still alchemists in this world." Fang Yu said.

"But these people don't have a trace of alchemical furnace aura on them, they probably haven't cultivated their alchemy fire either. And besides, the furnaces in their hands are as small as rice bowls… This is too ridiculous, right" Lin Batian said.

Indeed, the people standing on the platform, if they were placed two thousand years ago, none of them could be considered alchemists.

But in this day and age, spiritual energy is scarce, martial arts are in decline, and one cannot expect too much.

Fang Yu is actually interested in seeing what level of pills alchemists can refine these days.

Qin Lang heard Lin Batian's evaluation of the group of alchemists on stage, and his face showed embarrassment.

You have to know that alchemists hold a very high position in the martial arts world, and most martial artists respect them deeply.

Because, few people can master the art of alchemy.

In Lin Batian's mouth, these alchemists on stage seemed like clowns.

After some thought, Qin Lang spoke, "Mr. Lin, actually these people on stage are not the top-tier alchemists."

"See, I told you there were even better ones out there. These people on stage aren't even real alchemists." Lin Batian said with a smile to Fang Yu.

"The top-tier alchemist comes from the Wancao Sect's Dan Dao lineage. According to previous statements, they should send a Dan Dao elder onstage to demonstrate later." Qin Lang said.

"Next, please welcome Elder Yuqing of our Dan Dao lineage to the stage!" The seventh elder on stage shouted loudly.

The audience erupted in thunderous applause.

"Elder Yuqing! I heard you're very young, less than fifty!"

"To be fifty years old and already an elder of the Dan Dao lineage!"

"Yes, I heard that his alchemy talent is quite amazing..."

A gasp arose from the crowd.

On the high platform, an old man in a blue robe with long white beard walked to the crowd.

He, like other alchemists, wore a square hat and held a furnace in his hand.

Upon seeing this person, Lin Batten was greatly disappointed.

"This is the top alchemist Besides a trace of alchemical fire aura, he's no different from the others on stage," Lin Batian looked at Qin Lang and said.

Qin Lang touched his forehead and said, "Mr. Lin, please continue watching. The strength of the Wàn Cǎo Mén Dān Dào lineage is recognized as the strongest in all of China..."

"Don't look at present things with the eyes of the past, or you'll be surprised twenty-four hours a day." Fang Yu said.

"Well, from now on, I'll try to speak less." Lin Batian said.

After Elder Yucheng came out, the Alchemy Conference officially began.

On both sides of the main hall, there stood quite a number of disciples from the Wancao Sect. Among them were those from the Yaodao lineage and those from the Dan Dao lineage.

It is not often that one can witness the alchemy practices of the elders of the Dan Dao lineage firsthand, as they are primarily here to learn.

Yang Chuyu and Ke'er also stood among this group of disciples.

"Senior Sister Yangyang, it's Elder Yuqing! He developed and refined the Huiling Dan. It was one of the most popular pills in the market last year! It is said that many elders within the sect asked to buy it, but they couldn't get their hands on any!" Ke'er said excitedly.

"Well, I understand," Yang Chuyu said.

"Will he demonstrate the process of refining the Rejuvenation Pill today" Ke'er asked.

"It's impossible, with so many alchemists here, it's hard to guarantee that it won't be learned." Yang Chuanyu gently shook her head and said.

"What will he show I'm so excited!" Keer said.

On the second floor of the main hall, several elders were also looking at the platform.

For the Wàncǎo Mén, the Dān Dào lineage receives far more emphasis than the Yào Dào lineage.

Next, Elder Yuqing will lead the way and demonstrate the process of refining Xiaoluling Dan! Elder Qi announced.

Upon hearing his words, many who understood the Dao of Dan felt disappointed.

Small Gathering Elixir is the most common type of elixir. Its refining method is something any alchemist would know.

The reactions of the crowd below were seen by Elder Yu Qing, who smiled coldly.

What he was going to refine wasn't an ordinary Xiaoju Lingdan, but a top-grade Xiaoju Lingdan!

"Silence." Elder Yuqing uttered two words.

The originally bustling hall fell silent instantly.

Elder Yucheng gently tapped the small furnace in his hand.

The stove flew directly in front of him, hovering in mid-air.

Elder Yuqing gently moved his right hand, and several medicinal herbs appeared in his hand. He threw them all into the furnace.

Then, he extended his left hand forward, palm facing the bottom of the small furnace.

"Wow!"

A blue flame ignited on the palm of his left hand!

"Wow..."

A gasp echoed through the great hall.

This is danhuo!

Utilizing one's own cultivated inner fire to refine pills is the highest realm for an alchemist!

This elixir, refined in this way, will absolutely not be an ordinary one!

All of a sudden, everyone present felt slapped in the face.

I originally thought that Elder Yuqing's refining of the Xia Ju Ling Dan wouldn't be very interesting.

The sudden burst of flames, however, left them speechless!

The alchemists on stage looked at Elder Yuqing with shock and admiration on their faces.

This is the depth of the Dan Dao lineage of the Wàncǎo Mén!

Even an ordinary elder can wield the power of dan fire!

Only alchemists truly understand the difficulty of cultivating fire for alchemy.

After the fire ignited, Elder Yu Qing with a flick of her right hand caused a lid to appear above the small alchemy furnace.

Elder Yucheng's face was solemn, his left hand moved slightly, and the fire danced along the perimeter of the small alchemy furnace.

And so it persisted for about ten seconds, then Elder Yuqing's left hand twitched suddenly.

The small brazier trembled slightly.

Elder Yuqing's hand-held fire of alchemy extinguished.

He held a small furnace in one hand and looked down at the stunned faces below, saying: "The Xiaoyu Lingdan has been successfully refined."

So fast!

Another wave of gasps echoed through the audience.

Although the Little Gathering Spirit Pill is the most common type of spirit pill, it still takes a certain amount of time to refine, at least fifteen minutes.

Elder Ke Yuqing, it took him less than a minute!

This is the top alchemist!

Elder Yuling opened the lid of the medicinal furnace.

A burst of medicinal fragrance wafted from the high platform, reaching every nose in the audience.

"Just a small gathering spirit pill, yet it has such a fragrant aroma. Its quality must be very high…" some of the disciples of the Dao of Medicine said.

"That's right, this is a top-grade Xiaolu Gathering Spirit Pill." Elder Yucheng stroked his beard and smiled faintly.

Top-grade elixir!

Less than a minute to refine!

Both on stage and off, everyone was overwhelmed with shock.

Lin Batai looked around at the shocked gazes, gritted his teeth, and couldn't hold it in any longer. He burst into laughter.

At this moment, the surroundings were quiet, making his laughter stand out even more.

Everyone in the entire hall turned to look at where the laughter was coming from. Fang Yu said.……Two hours later, in the Council Hall at Fuhong Gate."I want you to help me search for any information about the human race, both inside and outside Wuzhou." Fang Yu said to Bai Xueyan....
