Fighting the Masked Man

The first phase of the Alchemy Competition is in full swing. Alchemists of different ranks enter different realms to make elixirs. Ultimately, they will be reviewed by the alchemists of the Alchemy God Clan, and the champions of each rank will be determined based on the value of the elixir itself and its promotion potential.

The elixirs in the universe are roughly divided into ordinary (grade one to grade nine), heavenly, spiritual, immortal, and holy. The ordinary grades correspond to the realm below the Supreme, the heavenly grades correspond to the Supreme realm and the Earth Supreme, and the three grades of Xuan, Xian, and Sheng correspond to the three realms of the Heaven Supreme.

The championship competition of Tianpin will be held in the giant square in the center of the Danshen Clan. The alchemists who can participate in this level of competition are the best in the world in terms of strength and alchemy skills, and are qualified to become guests of honor of any super power.

As for the higher level, that is already at the pinnacle of alchemy and is a giant.

There are very few such alchemists. Even in a large clan like the Dan Shen Clan that is good at alchemy, there are only a handful of them.

Yao Lao participated in the competition of the Heavenly Grade. There were already nearly 10,000 Heavenly Grade alchemists refining pills in the square. Countless spiritual fires of different colors were rising, and various alchemy techniques were displayed. He even saw someone using his own body as an alchemy furnace, swallowing various spiritual medicines into his stomach, and using the spiritual fire in his body to refine the spiritual medicines for their evolution.

"It's really a big world. It's really eye-opening!" He sighed with emotion in his eyes. It was obvious that Yao Lao was also shocked by the various alchemy techniques in front of him. Even his body was hot and he had a long-lost feeling of blood.

How lucky I am to be able to compete with so many 'Emperor' level alchemists!
Winning or losing is no longer important at this moment. Yao Lao just wants to know what level he is in the world. This feeling of pursuit makes him feel like he has returned to his youth in an instant. At that time, he was still studying in Dan Tower, diligently learning the art of alchemy...

"Om~" Yao Lao raised his hand and took out a holy-level alchemy cauldron, and entered the state of alchemy with a focused expression.

In contrast, Lin Dong was walking casually in the various realms, admiring the championship competition between the various grades. He had no intention of participating in the competition. In the art of alchemy, his talent was indeed not very good, and he had only remained at the ordinary level so far. There was a great probability of failure in refining eighth and ninth grade pills. This was evident.

With his level, he might not be able to achieve good results even if he participated in the championship competition for first-grade elixirs.

What the Alchemy Association values ​​is not the grade of the elixir, but the value of the elixir itself. Only when the most common spiritual medicine can be used to refine the most valuable elixir, and it is also popular, can the elixir be included as a candidate for the championship.

After all, the Alchemy Conference held by the Alchemy God Clan every hundred years values ​​creativity rather than individual alchemy skills.

……

In the competition area for ninth-grade elixirs.

As soon as Lin Dong stepped into the place, he saw tens of thousands of alchemists refining pills. The number of people was no less than that in the low-grade pill competition area. After all, the higher the grade of the pill, the higher the number of spiritual medicines consumed. The more pills that could be combined, the more fierce the competition for the championship would naturally be.

“Teacher should have brought Junior Sister to participate…” Lin Dong stepped into the void, watching many alchemists making pills, and whispered softly. With his strength that was half a step away from becoming a Supreme Immortal, no one in this realm could discover him.

If he didn't want to, no one even below the level of a Saint could detect his presence.

As his strength reached the level of Heavenly Supreme, the power of the rules of the eight ancestral talismans had merged with his own body. His body merged into the world with just a thought.

"You look unfamiliar, young man. Is this your first time attending the Alchemy Conference?" At this moment, an old and gentle voice sounded beside Lin Dong's ears. The sudden voice made Lin Dong tense his body in an instant, and he looked over with vigilant eyes.

I saw a short old man about one meter tall appeared in my sight a few meters away from me.

The other party was wearing a turquoise robe with patterns of thousands of magical medicines displayed on it. He had white hair and a childlike face with squinting eyes. He looked harmless and did not even have the aura of a strong person. He was like a breeze between heaven and earth that could dissipate at any time.

Lin Dong frowned. With his current state of mind, he couldn't even sense the other party's aura at all. It was obvious that the person's strength must be superior to his own, and the gap was definitely not a little bit.

Holy Heaven Supreme? !

He didn't know the identity of the visitor, so he could only ask tentatively: "I am Lin Dong, and this is indeed my first time attending the Alchemy Conference. May I know your identity, senior?"

"My name is Wan Ling, an old man who is about to die. I don't deserve the title of senior." Venerable Wan Ling stroked his white beard and said with a smile. At the same time, he looked at the people below who were refining pills. He slowly raised his hand, absorbed a wisp of the spirituality nurtured by the people in the process of refining pills, sucked it into his palm, and merged it into a fist-sized ball of light.

All spirits?

Lin Dong thought of the names revealed by those Saint-level Supreme bosses in their casual chat not long ago, and immediately knew the identity of the person who came. If nothing unexpected happened, the other party should be the guardian of the ancient Wan Grassland, a powerful person standing at the top of the universe.

"Senior, what are you doing?" After making sure that the other party had no ill intentions, he asked curiously.

"If you are an alchemist, you should know that a ray of spirituality will be born in the process of alchemy. These spiritualities are comparable to the original power of creation of living beings. By intercepting these spiritualities, you can breed an elixir of immortal level. This elixir is called the Immortal Ascension Pill, which can help people break into the immortal level directly, and it also has the effect of tempering the body of the Supreme Heaven... Do you want it, young friend?" Wan Ling said with a smile, his eyes still smiling, looking extremely kind and amiable.

“Senior, you are joking. How dare I covet such a medicine!” Lin Dong shook his head without hesitation. He was not a newbie who had just started practicing. How could a powerful Saint-level Heavenly Supreme give him a chance for no reason? Such words must have something to ask for, and this would definitely mean trouble.

He had no shortage of training resources during his practice, and his teacher was a highly skilled alchemist. It was obviously not a wise choice to provoke a mysterious Saint-grade Heavenly Supreme just for a spiritual-grade elixir that could assist in his breakthrough.

“My friend, there is no need to think too much. An immortal-grade pill is not a precious thing. I give it to you just to make friends with you in advance... With your talent, it should not be difficult for you to step into the holy level in the future. It is better to make friends in advance than to cling to others in the future.” Wan Ling stroked his white beard lightly, and the invisible force in his palm condensed slightly. The fist-sized ball of light seemed to shrink inward until it turned into a white pill the size of a longan, floating in his palm, and was handed to Lin Dong.

Upon hearing this, Lin Dong was silent for a moment before he reached out to take the pill, because the other party's words had already blocked his refusal. If he still wanted to forcefully refuse, it would undoubtedly be a lack of face for the other party. He couldn't see the other party's intention for the time being, so there was obviously no need for him to offend the other party.

As for the consequences of taking the pill... at worst I can tell my master about it and let him decide!
I can't afford to offend him, but the teacher may not be afraid of him. These little guys from the lower planes are really cautious by nature...Wanling Zun felt helpless. He really had no other plans. To him, absorbing a ray of spirituality when millions of pills were condensed into a pill of ascension was just a casual thing. In this way, he could make friends with a future saint seed. This business would undoubtedly make a lot of money.

“My dear friend, please don’t misunderstand me. I just think that you have the potential to become a saint in the future, so I want to make friends with you in advance.” Venerable Wan Ling seemed to have noticed what Lin Dong was thinking and couldn’t help but add a sentence.

“Senior, is there anything I can do for you?” Lin Dong asked.

“Young friend, what do you think you can do to help me? Even if you want to do something for me, you have to wait until you break into the Saint level. Now you are only at the half-step immortal level, which is still a long way from the Saint level. Instead of worrying about what I am going to do to you, you might as well improve your cultivation.” Venerable Wanling said with a smile.

A free opportunity?

Lin Dong looked at him strangely, not being able to understand the train of thought of Master Wan Ling.

"My dear friend, please practice diligently. I still have things to do, so I won't chat with you any more." After Venerable Wanling finished speaking, he did not stay any longer and walked towards other alchemy realms. Judging from his posture, it was obvious that he intended to continue absorbing the spirituality of the alchemy process and condense the immortal pill.

Lin Dong looked at the snow-white Immortal Pill in his palm, pondered for a moment, and planned to tell his teacher about this matter. As he left the realm dedicated to the alchemy competition, a figure blocked his way, as if he had been waiting for him for a long time.

"?"

He looked at the newcomer with a slightly cold gaze, "A good dog doesn't block the road!"

The person who came was Maha Tian’s younger brother, Maha You. He was also a being at the peak of the spiritual level. He stared at Lin Dong with cold eyes and sneered sinisterly: “Sharp-tongued fellow… If you are brave enough, come with me to fight outside the domain. If you are afraid, you can also call your teacher!”

"Idiot." Lin Dong's eyes were still cold, as if he was looking at a vicious dog barking on the roadside, and he replied indifferently. How could he be such an idiot as to follow the other party to fight outside the domain just because of a sentence? Wouldn't that be walking into a trap?

The most important thing is that he really didn't take Mahayou seriously. His real target was Mahatian. Lin Dong really wanted to know, with his current strength, whether he could replicate his teacher's legend and defeat Mahatian!

"If you want to fight, let your brother come. I will fight him head-on. Life and death is my own responsibility!" He said in a cold tone.

"You think you can challenge my brother? Who do you think you are!" Mahayou laughed angrily. A disciple of the Emperor of Heaven, who is now only a spiritual supreme, what qualifications does he have to challenge his elder brother? His elder brother had defeated countless opponents of this level in the past. It is still unclear whether he can withstand a blow from Mahatian, yet he still wants to challenge him.

“My master was able to beat your elder brother in the past, and I can still do it now!” Lin Dong stared at Mahayou calmly and said confidently and domineeringly, with a bit of Yao Yan’s shadow in his expression.

Mahayou's expression froze, and he instantly thought of the scene in the past where his elder brother's body was slapped to pieces by the Emperor of Heaven. For a moment, he didn't know how to respond to Lin Dong. After all, he was not a person who was good at talking.

"Do you really want to fight me to the death? The sacred object of the Dan Shen Clan can seal the void. If you want to challenge me, you can ask your teacher to ask the ancestor of the Dan Shen Clan to open the Dan Shen Cauldron. You and I can enter it and fight fairly. Life and death are at your own risk!"

Mahatian's figure slowly walked out of the void, staring at Lin Dong with a cold gaze, and said coldly.

Originally, he would not pay attention to Lin Dong. Why would he need to take action against a Spiritual Grade Heavenly Supreme? But since the other party came to his door, he didn't mind killing him first and letting the Emperor of Heaven watch him slaughtering his disciple. That scene would definitely be very interesting!
At this moment, Mahadayna was undoubtedly possessed by the devil. Hatred and shame had changed his character drastically. He had fallen from a favored child of heaven to his current state, with all his future paths blocked and only one evil path to take. All these gaps had filled his heart with hatred.

He wants revenge!

He wants revenge!

"Okay!" Lin Dong looked at Mahatian calmly and said coldly.

After practicing for so long, he also wanted to see what level his strength had reached, and Mahatian was undoubtedly an excellent opponent. He had witnessed the fight between Mahatian and his teacher in the past, and he was very clear about Mahatian's strength. He didn't think he would lose if the two fought.

Perhaps he could also use the pressure from Mahatian to take his martial god form to a higher level!
In the teacher's words, his path is not to practice hard, but to sublimate in battle. Only by fighting to support fighting can his strength grow rapidly. After killing Mahatian this time, he plans to go to the Holy Abyss to practice and strive to enter the holy level in the shortest time possible!

"Oh, I'll wait for you!" Mahatian grinned, his smile was very sinister.

Lin Dong stopped talking nonsense and turned to fly towards the ancestral temple of the Dan Shen Clan. If he wanted to use the sacred object of the Dan Shen Clan, he had to ask his teacher. As for what other plans Maha Tian had, they had nothing to do with him. As long as he killed Maha Tian, ​​any plan of the other party would become a joke!
"Brother, didn't we agree that I would do it?" Mahayou looked at Mahatian with dissatisfaction and asked. With elder brother's strength at the peak of the Supreme Immortal Level, why should he lower himself to fight against the disciples of the Emperor of Heaven? Even if he won in the end, it would be an extremely embarrassing thing. If it were his former elder brother, he would never agree to such a thing.

"He wants to die, I'll send him off!" Maha Tian said coldly, "... and then I'll use his broken body to force the Emperor into a trap!"

"Do we really want to go to war with the Emperor of Heaven again?" Mahayou said eagerly, with a hint of excitement in his eyes. After all, the reputation of the ancient Maha clan has been damaged over the years, and only the blood of the Emperor of Heaven can wash away these shames.

"When the Alchemy Clan's Alchemy Conference is over, you will naturally know it!" Mahatian looked up at the location of the Alchemy Clan's ancestral temple and said slowly.

He did not hold back his voice. With his strength reaching this level, he only needed to resort to open tactics most of the time. From the moment the Emperor of Heaven seized his fiancée, this battle was inevitable. Otherwise, where would the Maha ancient tribe put their face!

This is the hatred of having your wife taken away from you! (End of this chapter)
