Over twelve thousand participants quickly selected the materials they needed.
To the surprise of everyone in the Pill League, such a small number of people had taken two hundred thousand portions!
âIt seems everyone is quite confident, just four hours, hehe, Iâm afraid many will end up with negative points,â Vice Alliance Hierarch Lin swept his eyes over the Immortal Palace and chuckled.
He had seen someone take twenty portions, but he was well aware that unless one was a seventh-grade Immortal Master in the Alchemy Dao, it would be very difficult to refine twenty portions within four hours.
âHas that kid not collected his share yet? Is he planning to give up?â Vice Alliance Hierarch Lin glanced at Li Cheng, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground, and sneered.
âVice Lin, maybe that kid doesnât even know how to do alchemy?â someone chimed in.
Vice Alliance Hierarch Lin gave a glance at the speaker, âAre you stupid? If he couldnât do alchemy, how could he possibly have been chosen by the purple talisman?â
As soon as the words fell, Li Cheng finally turned his gaze to the Immortal Palace and reached out to grab, taking the remaining one hundred thousand portions from the air.
This scene shocked all the people in the Pill League so much that they suddenly stood up.
Even Gu Sanqiu widened his eyes, âHoly moly, kid, did you not listen to the rules? After the time is up, the remaining materials will be deducted from your score!â
Bai Xian and others also panicked, exchanging glances and seeing the worry in each otherâs eyes.
Taking one hundred thousand portions of materials, the amount to be deducted when time is up could perhaps be a million points?
A negative million points?
With such a low score, Li Cheng is definitely going to be famous!
But such a method of gaining fame leaves one⦠at a loss for words!
All competing Pill Masters were also stunned, looking at Li Cheng, as many inwardly regretted that they should have done the same!
Why?
Competing here is to become famous, and Li Chengâs method is undoubtedly a very good way to get known.
Even if not for a good reputation, but it will suffice to make oneâs name echo far and wide.
Soon, word would spread around the world: Look, thatâs so-and-so, who made astonishing moves during the Alchemy Dao Conferenceâ¦
Thatâs being famous too, and itâs definitely louder than winning first place!
But unfortunately, it was already too late, all the materials had already been taken by Li Cheng, and they no longer had a chance.
âHaha, dear Alliance Hierarch, I made the rules very clear. If he didnât listen properly, itâ s not my fault, and, moreover, these cannot be returned,â said Vice Alliance Hierarch Lin with a big laugh, feeling a genuine surge of delight.
The future Hierarch is going to be an âinfamously brilliantâ idiot; how could he not be thrilled thinking about Gu Sanqiuâs upcoming embarrassment?
Gu Sanqiu gave Vice Alliance Hierarch Lin a stern look, âMind your status!â
Vice Alliance Hierarch Linâs smile froze, and he quickly regained his composure, clearing his throat and saying, âSince everyone is ready, letâs start the timer!â
âDonât worry, itâs just an Emperor Grade Immortal Pill,â Li Cheng communicated to Gu Sanqiu, then took out the Purple Void Jade Emperorâs Tripod.
Just an Emperor Grade?
Gu Sanqiu furrowed his brow, an Emperor Grade Immortal Pill wasnât much of a challenge, but thatâs one hundred thousand portions of materials!
Who could refine one hundred thousand portions of Emperor Grade Immortal Pills within an hour? Perhaps not even a Divine Master of the Alchemy Dao could accomplish that, right?
But the next moment, Gu Sanqiu was stunned.
Because Li Chengâs Purple Void Jade Emperorâs Tripod transformed into a mountain-sized behemoth and swallowed up all one hundred thousand portions of materials!
âWhat in the world⦠what kind of divine maneuver is this?â Gu Sanqiuâs eyes widened once again.
Li Chengâs actions were continuously testing everyoneâs psychological tolerance!
Vice Alliance Hierarch Lin was also dumbfounded, his mouth agape, unable to speak a word.
He finally understood, Li Cheng was here to get back at him!
The materials were prepared by him, and Li Chengâs actions would surely turn one hundred thousand portions of materials to dust in an instant.
No matter how richly-endowed the Pill League was, losing materials for one hundred thousand Emperor Grade Immortal Pills would be a painful loss indeed!
At this moment, he really wanted to stop Li Cheng.
But he had just declared no turning back, how could he go back on his word?
âCouldnât you be more low-key? Look, the whole venue is watching you!â Immortal Emperor Tian Yuanâs voice transmission sounded.
âIâm lazy; I want to get things done in one go to avoid the back-and-forth hassle,â Li Cheng said.
If this batch of pills is successfully refined, who could compete with his score?
He wouldnât need to participate in the subsequent rounds; first place would be as good as his.
Thatâs why he took all those ingredients at once.
Ignoring the various expressions of the crowd, Li Cheng began alchemy, using the Rule of Fire to stimulate the Immortal Fire.
When the Rule of Fire appeared, Gu Sanqiuâs already wide eyes seemed ready to split open, âNo wonder he was chosen by the purple talisman, an Immortal Monarch, and yet he controls 16,000 strands of the Rule of Fire!â
For a Pill Master, the Rule of Fire is undoubtedly of paramount importance.
But with Gu Sanqiu in the Complete Immortal Emperor Realm, the laws he comprehended couldnât compare to Li Chengâs, which of course, stunned him.
Looking at Vice Alliance Hierarch Lin, his facial expression had already stiffened, âThis defies all reason, an Immortal Monarch, how could he comprehend so many Rules of Fire?â
The entire venue heard the words of Gu Sanqiu and Vice Alliance Hierarch Lin, and a shock, disbelief, and a mix of other expressions surfaced, making the atmosphere exceedingly strange for a time.
âThatâs not right either, no matter how many Rules of Fire one controls, itâs impossible to refine so many Immortal Pills in one go, after all, alchemy is all aboutâ¦â Gu Sanqiu mused to himself, but before he could finish, he sensed normal alchemy fluctuations indeed emanating from Li Chengâs Pill Tripod.
In the venue, many Pill Masters had already forgotten about their own alchemy and were staring intently at Li Chengâs huge mountain-like Pill Tripod, sensing the changes within.
An hour passed, and within the Purple Void Jade Emperorâs Tripod, there were dense sounds of pill collisions.
Li Cheng looked at the tranquil sky, âBeing in a Secret Land, Tribulation Thunder cannot descend, but without it, Emperor Grade Immortal Pills cannot be refined.â
After a brief contemplation, Li Cheng spoke, âThe pills Iâm refining need to undergo Tribulation Crossing. Alliance Hierarch, may I move to the outside world?â
Tribulation Crossing?
The already astonished crowd was once again taken aback. Did he imply that the Immortal Pills needed to cross tribulation?
âIt is rumored that only through Pill Tribulation can Emperor Grade pills be born. Could it be true?â With Pill Leagueâs long heritage, Emperor Grade pills have indeed emerged, so the members of Pill League were aware of what Pill Tribulation implied.
âGo quickly, why are you asking me?â Gu Sanqiu promptly said.
Li Cheng nodded, lifted the Pill Hall, and flew towards the outside world. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Everyone hurriedly followed, including the competitors who had been observing all this time.
No sooner had they left the Secret Land than they saw the sky filling with a thick Immortal might, as Tribulation Clouds floated in, darkening the skies rapidly.
The entire Lord City was looking towards the direction of Pill League, with discussions happening everywhere.
âOur Pill League is merely refining pills; thereâs no need for panic!â
Gu Sanqiuâs voice spread throughout the entire Lord City, heavy with confidence.
âA pill refinement that can attract such astonishing Tribulation Thunder? Thatâs something to see!â
Countless figures floated into the sky, all looking towards Pill League.
Above Pill League, the Purple Void Jade Emperorâs Tripod was slowly rising, Li Cheng stood beside the huge tripod, waving his hand casually, numerous Immortal Pills streamed out like a flood from within the Tripod.
At the same time, the Tribulation Clouds in the sky also finished accumulating, and the first bolt of Tribulation Thunder ferociously struck down!
Li Chengâs figure flickered, appearing amongst the myriad pills in the sky, seeking Enlightenment through the Tribulation Thunder.
â Is that dark mass Immortal Pills? And who is that Immortal Monarch? Is he cultivating by leveraging the Tribulation Thunder?â
âUnity of Heaven and Man, that Immortal Monarch has gained Enlightenment! To understand through Tribulation Thunder, thatâs simply beyond belief!â
Lord City was completely abuzz!
