Battle Through the Heavens: The Beginning of the Dou Sheng Inheritance

Chapter 76 Honorary President Xiao Jue

Upon arriving at the president's office, besides Hai Bodong, there was also an elderly man dressed in a purple alchemist's robe.

The old man, whose face was like withered tree bark, looking like he was about to die and who appeared sleepy, suddenly opened his eyes after hearing the door open. He cast a seemingly bewildered gaze at Xiao Jue, and a kind smile appeared on his withered face.

"You must be the Xiao Jue that Old Man Bing mentioned? Truly, a hero emerges from among the young." Guild Master Fa Ma laughed, "I don't care if I compete for the title of the number one alchemist in the Jia Ma Empire, but if you are truly a sixth-grade alchemist, I wouldn't mind being a stepping stone for you to become the number one alchemist in the Jia Ma Empire by stepping on my prestige."

"President Fa Ma." Xiao Jue greeted him and then smiled, "Please grant my request, President Fa Ma. As a reward, I have the formula for the improved Three-Pattern Azure Spirit Pill, which is already considered a fifth-grade pill. Compared to the original fourth-grade Three-Pattern Azure Spirit Pill, the improved fifth-grade Three-Pattern Azure Spirit Pill has no chance of failure."

"Oh?" Fa Ma was quite surprised. Even he couldn't improve a fourth-grade pill formula into a fifth-grade pill formula. This undoubtedly made him even more convinced that Xiao Jue was a sixth-grade alchemist.

At only seventeen years old, or even a month shy of seventeen, Fama couldn't help but sigh that heroes emerge from among the young, and that talent is truly unpredictable.

"Hehe, for some reason, I seem to sense a familiar aura about you..." Fa Ma coughed and said with some doubt.

"Perhaps I was just imagining things. As people get older, they start to have more hallucinations." He sensed it again, but didn't get the same feeling as before. Fama shook his head in disappointment, leaned back in his chair, and seemed a little lost in thought, his memory hazy.

When Fa Ma was still young, he traveled across the continent and once met an old man of unfathomable strength. By chance, the old man and Fa Ma spent three days together.

During those three days, the things the old man taught him on a whim were of great benefit to Defama.

It was with the help of the old man that, after returning to the Gama Empire, the previously unknown Famo gradually rose to his current position.

It was only after reaching this point that Fa Ma realized just how terrifying the mysterious old man from back then truly was.

The vague aura that Fa Ma sensed from Xiao Jue earlier was quite similar to that possessed by the old man back then, which is why Fa Ma suddenly lost his composure.

"The familiar aura that the guild leader mentioned is probably true," Xiao Jue said. "The Medicine Venerable once traveled to the Northwest Continent. He was the number one alchemist in the Central Plains. Perhaps the guild leader received guidance from him back then."

Fa Ma exclaimed, "The number one alchemist in Central Plains, the Medicine Venerable? You've met him? But rumors say he's not..."

With Yao Lao's soul power restored, he possessed the strength of a Dou Zun, making him invincible in the Northwest Continent. Xiao Jue didn't mind revealing the news that Yao Lao was still alive in front of some upright and powerful individuals.

Xiao Jue nodded. "Master Yao also instructed me in alchemy. Perhaps it's because I spent a lot of time with him that the president sensed a familiar aura."

"I see." Guild Master Fa Ma nodded with a smile. "To receive guidance from a senior like you, your character must be pure and simple, and your sixth-grade alchemy skills are undoubtedly exceptional."

"In that case, we can start refining medicine together in half a month before the Alchemist Conference begins, to showcase your alchemy skills. That grand event for alchemists will surely include almost all the alchemy techniques of the Gama Empire. You can use that platform to prove to the world that you are the strongest alchemist in the Gama Empire today."

"Half a month later?" Xiao Jue thought for a moment and then nodded. In that case, Yao Lao and Xiao Yan would definitely arrive in the capital in half a month. Perhaps they could refine a sixth-grade pill in public and show off their skills in front of everyone.

Fa Ma then asked, "Young friend, would you be willing to serve as the president of the Alchemist Guild? If not, you can serve as the honorary president."

"I won't stay in the Gama Empire forever," Xiao Jue said. "I'll just become the honorary president of the Alchemist Guild."

Fa Ma chuckled and said, "Very well, I'll send someone to announce this matter right away. Would you be willing to start refining pills tomorrow and let them witness your alchemy skills?"

"Of course," Xiao Jue said. "I still owe the Ice Emperor a Grade 5 Purple Spirit Pill and a Grade 6 Imperial Extreme Pill. Tomorrow is the perfect time to refine the Purple Spirit Pill."

Afterwards, the two discussed alchemy for a while and each gained something. When alchemists refine pills, they only need to consider whether their soul control can perfectly control the temperature of the flame and whether their battle qi is sufficient to refine the pills. However, alchemists with profound knowledge also have considerable research on pharmacology, which is related to their self-created pill formulas.

Afterwards, Xiao Jue and Hai Bodong returned to the Mittel family together. That night, Xiao Jue and Ya Fei fought all night long. By the time dawn broke, Ya Fei had already fallen into a coma, but Xiao Jue was still full of energy. After getting up and washing up, he found Hai Bodong and Mittel Tengshan and went to the Alchemist Guild together.

……

On their way to the Alchemist Guild, Hai Bodong was extremely excited. He would soon be able to take the Rejuvenating Purple Spirit Pill to restore his battle qi, and even in half a month, he could obtain another Imperial Extreme Pill, allowing his strength to advance further than at its peak.

Hai Bodong and Mittel Tengshan used their battle qi to create wings, and Xiao Jue also used dragon wings. The three of them flew directly into the room of the alchemist guild leader instead of walking.

As Xiao Jue landed on the balcony, he caught a glimpse of a carriage at the entrance of the Alchemist Guild. From behind the curtain, a slender, snow-white hand reached out and gracefully grasped the handle of the carriage door. Then, a beautiful figure slowly stepped out and appeared in everyone's sight.

The person who appeared was dressed in a purple robe with silver patterns. Her exquisite features, influenced by her royal upbringing, subtly revealed an innate noble air.

A purple sash cinched her slender waist, highlighting its exquisite shape. She appeared to be around the same age as Xiao Jue, and a slight smile graced her pretty face, exuding elegance and tranquility.

However, whenever her gaze swept around, a strange, mischievous smile would flash in the seemingly ladylike girl's watery eyes, clearly indicating that she was not as quiet as she appeared.

"The royal princess..." Xiao Jue smiled. A seventeen-year-old third-grade alchemist, she was perhaps the most suitable opponent for Xiao Yan in this year's alchemist competition.
