Pill God Returns

The few of them inhaled a breath of cold air once again. The scale and scale of the gathering between alchemists in all the worlds in the universe was beyond their imagination.    

"World Cup of Pill God, what does it have to do with this meeting?"    

Hou Junji explained, "Of course it has to do with it. Through this event, one can choose an outstanding genius. Focus on nurturing him, and strive to achieve outstanding results in the World Cup of Pill God in five years' time. Middle Profecture had done this since a year ago. Later on, other places also competed to hold the Alchemist Grand Meeting. On the one hand, they understood the overall situation of the alchemists in the Mysterious Domain. On the other hand, they were also preparing for the World Cup of Pill God. It was said that if they obtained outstanding results in the World Cup of Pill God... Supreme Pill God might take a fancy to them and accept them as his disciples."    

Disciple of Pill God?    

When they heard this, everyone started drooling endlessly. The rumored Pill God... His skill in alchemy was unparalleled. If he could become his disciple... His future was limitless. Compared to the true disciples of Beichen House... It was almost impossible to compare.    

Wu Chen didn't say anything because his thoughts had drifted far away.    

"Someone is coming."    

Suddenly, Xia Youlan, Hou Junji and the others sensed some powerful Qi landing in the yard.    

"Huh?"    

Wu Chen was startled. He also woke up from his deep thoughts and looked outside.    

"Let's go out and take a look."    

The few of them came out to take a look. A few people appeared in the courtyard. These people were all wearing the uniform of an alchemist. The Golden Stripe on their chests was glittering with a bright and dazzling light.    

Without even thinking, they knew that these people were alchemists.    

"Elder Zhu, Elder Yang."    

Looking at the two old men leading the group, they realized that they recognized them. They were the professors of the Pill Institution in the Beichen House, and they were also the famous elders of the Beichen House.    

From this, it could be inferred that these people were from the Beichen House. They were the participants of the Alchemist Grand Meeting this time.    

"It's that old man."    

Among these people, Wu Chen only recognized the old man with the surname Zhu. His name was Zhu Kun. On the second day after he entered the Beichen House and chose his department, he strongly recommended the old man to join the Pill Institution.    

Behind these two old men, among the young alchemists... The lowest level was a Fourth Grade alchemist. The most shocking thing was... The three young alchemists following behind these two old men had the number of Golden Stripe on their chests. Surprisingly, it wasn't four, but five.    

Three Tier 5 alchemists.    

Looking at these three people, Wu Chen nodded his head. Their talent was not bad. At such a young age, they had already become Tier 5 alchemists. In the future, they might be able to break through to the Sixth Rank or seventh-rank.    

"Hahaha, Zhu Kun, Yang Xiong, you have finally come."    

A loud laughter was heard from the other side. It was Elder Mu Qing.    

"Mu Qing, how have you been?"    

Mu Qing said, "Not bad. By the way, where's Vice Principal Yun? Did he not come?"    

Zhu Kun said, "Vice Academy Master has yet to return from this trip, so he couldn't come here personally. That's why he asked Yang Xiong and I to bring the alchemists of Beichen House here to participate in this alchemy gathering."    

Mu Qing glanced at the young alchemists behind him and said, "All the alchemists of Beichen House are here, right?"    

Yang Xiong shook his head and said, "No, they are all alchemists above the Fourth Order. Those below the Fourth Order didn't let them come."    

The lowest standard for this alchemy gathering was third-rank alchemists. However, third-rank alchemists were usually just there for show. Thus, after much consideration, they decided not to let them come. They only allowed the most outstanding Tier 4 and Tier 5 alchemists to come and participate in the Alchemist Grand Meeting. Even though the number of participants was slightly lower, they were all elites. The geniuses among geniuses were present. That was enough.    

"Alright."    

Mu Qing wasn't an apothecary, so he didn't know much about the field of apothecaries.    

"Mu Qing, have you found out where the venue of this Pill Refiner Competition is?"    

"Yes, I have." Mu Qing nodded and said, "The venue is in the Lightning Garden. Is that the venue for the Alchemist Grand Meeting? Are you guys going there? "    

Zhu Kun said, "We can't not. Before the Alchemist Grand Meeting, we still need to register and draw lots. There are also the selection of judges and other matters that need to be dealt with."    

"Alright, since that's the case, I'll bring you guys there later."    

"Alright."    

Zhu Kun and Yang Xiong nodded. The Alchemist Grand Meeting was a world-renowned event, and they had to prepare for all aspects of the event.    

"Have you guys not eaten yet? If you have, I will immediately ask the people here to make food for you. You can go after you have eaten."    

Mu Qing was sure that these people had not eaten, because they had just arrived here after rushing all the way from the Beichen House.    

"Alright."    

The journey was bumpy and bumpy. They were very tired as they flew along the way. They needed to eat and rest to replenish their energy. Anyway, they had already arrived here, so they weren't in a hurry.    

"Okay. You guys go inside and rest for a while. I will arrange it for you right away."    

Mu Qing turned around and left to arrange things and prepare food.    

"Come, let's go in."    

Zhu Kun waved his hand and called the young alchemist behind him. He was about to enter the room.    

"Old man, do you still remember me?"    

At this moment, a voice was heard, causing him to be stunned. He raised his head and looked over.    

The others were also stunned. It wasn't because of this voice, but just because of this name. Old man, isn't this a little too disrespectful to Zhu Kun?    

"Wu Chen, don't mess around."    

Xia Youlan's face was stern as she said with a serious expression. Given Zhu Kun's status, how could he be called an old man?    

Wu Chen did not think it was a big deal. He had a faint smile on his face.    

"I thought it was someone. So it was you, little guy."    

Zhu Kun also recognized Wu Chen. It was the first day that Wu Chen had entered the Beichen House. At that time, he... He frankly admitted that he was an alchemist. The next day, he even asked Taoist Tian Xing for instructions. He had asked him to enter the Pill Institution to learn the art of alchemy, but he had rejected it.    

Later on, he had heard about all the things that Wu Chen had done. He was also sighing in his heart. Back then, ___ didn't enter the Pill Institution. Perhaps it was the right choice. Otherwise, the Pill Institution would have buried an A Peerless Genius.    

Fighter and an alchemist were two different occupations. Choosing one of the occupations meant that one had to give up on the other. Only then could one concentrate and achieve outstanding results.
