Battle Through the Heavens: Starting from the Jia Ma Empire

Chapter 238 Why is she even more monstrous than me!

The strange events that have recently occurred in Dan City, which spans the center of the entire Dou Qi Continent, are rapidly spreading to the surrounding areas.

In just half a month, everyone learned that a prodigy in the world of alchemy had appeared in this place.

Since there was no deliberate concealment, everyone already knew Lin Feng's general background. As a result, the mansion that Lin Feng had bought had been receiving a constant stream of visitors during this period.

However, at Lin Feng's instruction, all these guests were kept inside the reception hall by Han Fei.

The place where Cai Lin and the others were in seclusion was not affected by these visitors, thanks to the barrier of Lin Feng's Five Elements Barrier.

The only person who could meet Lin Feng was Old Man Mo from the Loose Cultivator Alliance.

Because of his continuous trade of seventh-grade pills for the Loose Cultivator Alliance, Old Man Mo's status in the alliance has risen significantly in recent days.

Don't think that just because the Loose Cultivator Alliance is very loose, this improvement in status is meaningless. At least now, even Venerable Cangmo is much more polite to Old Man Mo.

Of course, Old Man Mo, who had lived for hundreds of years and was well-versed in human relationships, did not get arrogant because of this.

However, after each transaction with Lin Feng, the trading partners within the alliance would give him a generous sum of resources.

If it weren't for the need to continue trading with Lin Feng, the travel expenses earned from the exchange over the past two weeks would have been enough for Old Man Mo to go into seclusion and attempt a breakthrough.

"However, you can take the Azure Longevity Pill that Master Lin Feng gave you first!"

Thinking of the elixir lying quietly in his storage ring, Old Man Mo's steps became even lighter.

He has lived for hundreds of years, and because he was fierce and combative in his youth, he has many hidden injuries in his body, so his lifespan is already limited.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have chosen to apply to retire in Dan City. You see, his unique tracking technique is an extremely useful tool for treasure hunting.

Fortunately, although the founder of the Loose Cultivator Alliance has not appeared for many years, the atmosphere he left behind in the alliance is extremely good.

If it were any other faction, his secret technique would have already been handed over under duress.

With this life-extending pill and the resources earned in the past half month, once he breaks through to the advanced Dou Zong level, he can enjoy nearly a hundred more years of carefree life.

"Master Lin Feng, what a stroke of luck for me, Old Mo!"

Meanwhile, Lin Feng was unusually present in the reception hall today, instead of refining pills in the secret room.

After half a month of preparation, Lin Feng had achieved his desired effect; his name was known throughout the entire Pill City. The continuous seventh-grade pill lightning not only bombarded Lin Feng's physical body but also deeply struck the hearts of millions, even tens of millions, of people in Pill City.

Even the prodigies nurtured by the Pill Tower cast interested glances at them.

Feeling that his luck had been building up, Lin Feng was preparing to emerge from seclusion today to take the alchemist level assessment at the Pill Tower!

Lin Feng slowly got up, walked outside the hall, and looked at Lao Mo walking towards him. The corners of his mouth curled up slightly.

"They're here!"

Saint Pill City, as the true center of Pill City, is where the essence of alchemists from across the continent truly converges.

Lin Feng and his companions walked around in this area, and in just half an hour, they saw no fewer than a hundred alchemists.

Of course, most of them are only third or fourth grade alchemists, and very few have reached fifth or sixth grade.

As for the seventh-grade or even higher eighth-grade alchemy masters, they were either in their own private places, studying the top-notch alchemy manuals they had just acquired, or busy with other matters.

The truly top-tier individuals rarely show their faces in public.

After all, a master is not made in a day. During this time, it is inevitable that he will be recognized. Putting aside the sensation caused, they are unwilling to waste the time that is wasted.

True masters, aside from those who are divinely ordained, are all masters of time management!

Before a tall black tower, Lin Feng and his companions gradually stopped and looked up at the strange structure that resembled both a tower and a cauldron. A sense of pride welled up in Lin Feng's heart.

From this day forward, Lin Feng's name will begin to resonate throughout the continent!

"Those taking the Alchemist Examination, please come this way. During the examination, unauthorized personnel are not allowed to observe. Please wait here!"

As soon as you enter the black tower, a girl dressed in purple greets you, perhaps because there are fewer people today.

Of course, Lin Feng thought it was because of the fifth-grade alchemist badge he was wearing on his chest!

That's right, this was given to him by the old man Fa Ma when he was at the Alchemist Guild in the Gama Empire. He said it would be convenient to have this when going out on business.

As for why it wasn't granted a sixth-grade rank, it's because the Alchemist Guild of the Gama Empire hadn't yet obtained this authority.

Of course, for a true master, a badge is merely an ornament.

Of course, what the old man Fa Ma said wasn't without reason. Didn't you see that the staff of the Dan Tower were enthusiastically asking Lin Feng questions right now?

Of course, with Cai Lin and the others by his side, Lin Feng's expression was quite indifferent.

Or rather, he's not interested in beautiful women!

After greeting Cai Lin and the others and indicating that they should wait, Lin Feng followed his sister to the assessment area.

"Young master, may I ask which rank of alchemist you wish to be assessed on today?"

After briefly asking Lin Feng's name, the staff member didn't inquire about Lin Feng's lineage; the badge of a fifth-grade alchemist already spoke for itself.

Sensing Lin Feng's indifference, the purple-clad girl felt a momentary pang of sadness before adjusting her mood and continuing to cooperate.

This was just her usual practice; the beauties Lin Feng brought were far beyond her reach!

"Seventh Grade, High Level!"

"Seventh-grade, high-level? What's that?! Seventh-grade, high-level!?"

When Lin Feng revealed the alchemist level he wanted to assess, the younger sister, who had just managed to adjust her mindset, immediately broke down and fell into a state of extreme astonishment.

"That's right, it's a high-grade seventh rank!"

Lin Feng spent half a month refining pills in Dan City for two reasons. One was to use the power of the pill lightning to cultivate, but the other was his true purpose in refining pills.

With the support of the Loose Cultivator Alliance's spiritual herbs, Lin Feng started by refining mid-grade seventh-rank pills. In the last two days of trials, he successfully refined a pill that reached the high-grade seventh rank.

Of course, with the blessing of the Dragon Emperor's essence blood, Cai Lin has broken through the barrier and reached the realm of Nine-Star Dou Zong.

"Young master, are you really going to take the exam to become a high-level seventh-grade alchemist?"

"Hmm, can't the assessment be conducted here?"

"this"

"Haha, young friend Lin Feng, let this old man answer your question!"

Just then, a hearty laugh came from around the corner of the corridor.

"Deacon Han!"

Upon seeing the visitor, the staff member immediately bowed in greeting.

"Deacon Han? Could he be the one from the original story who tested Xiao Yan and the others?"

Looking at it, Lin Feng's heart stirred, and he made a guess.

"I'll leave this place to you; you may leave now!"

"yes!"

"Even I, an old man, have heard of the esteemed name of young friend Lin Feng in this Sacred Pill City!"

After the staff member left, the steward surnamed Han suddenly sighed.

"You flatter me, Deacon. May I ask about this assessment?"

After making a slightly modest remark, Lin Feng inquired about the assessment, which was the real purpose of his visit.

"Haha, old people just like to ramble on!"

After stroking his beard and sighing, Deacon Han's expression turned serious.

"Young friend Lin Feng, you may not know this, but the assessment point here is just a branch tower. With my authority, the highest level I can assess is a mid-level seventh-grade alchemist."

"Is that really the case?"

"However," Lin Feng, who originally thought he would have to pass the main tower's exam to obtain the seventh-grade advanced alchemist badge, heard Deacon Han's tone change.

"Young friend Lin Feng's name is not only known to this old man, but even the giants of the Pill Tower have taken notice. Lord Xuan Kongzi has already given orders that if young friend Lin Feng comes, there is no need for an assessment; he can be met directly!"

"As for the badge and uniform of a seventh-grade advanced alchemist, I won't bother with that here. After young friend Lin Feng meets with Guild Master Xuan Kongzi, the guild master will make the arrangements!"

"As expected, how could the Pill Tower not be attracted by the continuous stream of pill lightning of at least mid-grade seventh rank for more than ten days? Not to mention that the pill lightning that appeared in the last two days even reached the high-grade seventh rank."

"If the three giants of the Dan Tower were of sound mind, they certainly wouldn't make things difficult for him over such trivial matters!"

"Young friend Lin Feng, this way please!"

After explaining the situation, Steward Han led the way with a smile.

"Brother Lin Feng!"

"Lin Feng!"

"My husband!"

"grown ups!"

Less than a quarter of an hour after entering the assessment area, Cai Lin and the others saw Lin Feng appear, which surprised them.

The Dan Lei, who is supposed to produce a seventh-grade pill, did not appear. Could it be that the assessment was failed?

Those who had questions in their hearts hurriedly stepped forward to ask.

"I'll explain this later. Now, you all go and buy a courtyard. I'll go with Deacon Han to meet with President Xuan Kongzi, one of the giants of the Pill Tower!"

Seeing the puzzled expressions on Cai Lin and the others' faces, Lin Feng didn't say much. Before meeting Xuan Kongzi, he didn't know what that guy was up to.

After leaving the scoring tower, led by Deacon Han, Lin Feng walked for half an hour before stopping in front of a tall, cauldron-shaped building.

"It's truly magnificent!"

Lin Feng was no stranger to tall buildings; he had even personally directed the students of Canaan Academy to build a city of magical beasts.

However, compared to the building in front of us, it's nothing.

Moreover, a faint medicinal fragrance wafted from the building. Could it be...?

"Haha, young friend Lin Feng, have you noticed?"

Seeing Lin Feng's expression, Steward Han finally smiled and explained.

"That's right, this cauldron-shaped building is more than just a symbol of the Dan Tower."

"One of the elders of the Pill Tower once had a brilliant idea: using this building as a cauldron, he refined an eighth-grade nine-colored pill lightning that was extremely close to ninth grade!"

"According to the elders of Danta, the sky was filled with nine-colored lightning at that time, almost obscuring the entire sky."

"In fact, that pill lightning was just one step away from transforming into the Black Demon Lightning, which symbolizes a ninth-grade pill!"

"A ninth-grade elixir? Maybe one day I can have one too!"

Looking at the building in front of him, Lin Feng's ambition surged up once again.

"Haha, if it's young friend Lin Feng, that's quite possible!"

Interrupted by Lin Feng's words, Deacon Han was not angry, but instead agreed.

If the intelligence is correct, Lin Feng in front of me is only in his early twenties, far from being thirty.

However, just a few days ago, he was already able to refine a high-grade seventh-rank pill on his own!

In terms of alchemy alone, Lin Feng has even surpassed him. If he were to receive further training from the Pill Tower, Steward Han believed that the Pill Tower might actually produce another ninth-grade alchemist within the next five hundred years!

That's right, exactly five hundred years!

The reason why Deacon Han thinks this way is that the three giants of today, although not as talented as Lin Feng is now, were not far off.

However, after all these years, he is still stuck at the eighth grade and ninth color level.

The reason for this is that the three realms that an alchemist needs to reach to attain the ninth rank are extremely difficult to achieve.

"Deacon Han, please bring young friend Lin Feng up!"

Just as Steward Han was getting carried away with his talkative nature and wanted to explain the threshold of a ninth-grade alchemist to Lin Feng, an old but very deep voice suddenly rang in his mind.

"Yes, President!"

The voice belonged to Xuan Kongzi, one of the giants of the Pill Tower. At this moment, he stood at the top of the Pill Tower, gazing at this place from afar.

Knowing Han's old habit, he decisively interrupted, because he wasn't the only one in the room.

"Xuan Kongzi, has that prodigy already arrived here?"

As soon as Xuan Kongzi finished speaking, a noble yet gentle voice rang out in the room.

Even without seeing her, just by listening to her voice, if the wandering swordsman Tian Boguang were here, he would know what kind of noblewoman she was.

"What? Xuan Yi, you're interested in Lin Feng too? I remember you didn't accept disciples?"

After Xuan Yi spoke, the other person standing in the room suddenly became anxious.

"Hehe, Tian Lei Zi, you know Lin Feng has caught your eye, so I won't fight you for him!"

"Hahaha, as long as you don't compete with me, Xuan Yi, I will definitely take this little guy Lin Feng under my wing."

Upon hearing Xuan Yi's promise, Tian Lei Zi, the last giant of the Pill Tower, finally revealed a joyful expression.

However, perhaps because he hadn't smiled in a long time, his face was so stiff that the other three people in the room quickly turned their heads away.

Seeing this, Tian Leizi awkwardly scratched his head.

"Tap, tap, tap"

Just then, several crisp footsteps slowly appeared, and the people who heard the sound quickly straightened up.

"Lord Xuan Kongzi, Lin Feng has arrived!"

"Come in!"

"Click."

The moment the door opened, a pair of alluring eyes immediately looked towards the entrance from inside the room.

"Lin Feng, I'd like to see what makes you even more monstrous than me!"
