novelThe Legend of Chen Beixuan
| ← Ch.0927 | Ch.0929 → |
"Is he gone?"
At Danyuan Hall.
Elixir Lord was standing elegantly.
"Yes, Elixir Monarch Chen has left Medicine City with his servant and friends after seeing Miss Qiao Qiao, " Xu Yuan bowed and said.
Dozens of elders of the Alchemy Guild standing on the sides of Danyuan Hall were relieved.
As long as Chen Fan was still in Medicine City, he would be like a sword that floated above their heads. Elder Situ would be in danger.
This time, although the Alchemy Guild had blamed Situ Cheng for everything, the Situ family behind him would definitely be implicated. Elder Situ knew full well about what he had done to Chen Fan during the Alchemy Guild Exam and the Alchemy Battles, so he was afraid that Chen Fan would come back for revenge.
"We gave him seven Heavenly Medicines last time. Together with the ten Heavenly Medicines and a hundred million Spirit Stones this time, the Alchemy Guild might need a few hundred years to get back to normal."
Elder Chenyan shook his head.
"Elixir Lord, Guild Master, why did we have to surrender? We still have the arrays to protect us. I don't think Chen Beixuan can break the Heavenly Array Heavenly Lord of Ancient Medicine formed, " an elder said.
Many other elders of the Alchemy Guild also wondered.
As a sect that used to have a Heavenly Lord in the past, they had their pride. Once the Heavenly Array was opened and when the Heavenly Cauldron was awakened, they would easily withstand the attacks from a Heavenly Lord. This was why the Alchemy Guild could survive in the State of Ancient Medicine for thousands of years.
"Even if we can stop him from entering the city, the Alchemy Guild is an alchemist organization after all. We don't have to fight with anyone. If Chen Beixuan stays outside for three years, would we keep the city locked down for three years?"
Elixir Lord shook his head.
Everyone looked gloomy.
"Besides, Chen Beixuan is already so powerful when he's still an early-stage Golden Core Cultivator, so what about two centuries later? Who knows if he'll become a real Heavenly Alchemist? By then, the Alchemy Guild will suffer from the consequences!" Elixir Lord heaved a sigh.
Even Xu Yuan gasped.
Right!
They had only thought about the present, but not the future. A Golden Core Perfected Cultivator should consider a thousand years ahead.
Chen Fan might not be able to break into Medicine City right then, but when he became a real Elixir Monarch or even a Heavenly Alchemist, destroying the Alchemy Guild would be a piece of cake for him.
By then, countless Heavenly Lords would be willing to serve Chen Fan.
"We're not the ones who should be worrying right now, the seven Heavenly Lord Families are next."
Then, Elixir Lord cracked a smile.
When news about what happened outside Medicine City was spread...
All the Heavenly Lord Families were in silence. The Hu family, the Feng family, the Nin family, the Taiyi Sect and the Commerce Guild couldn't believe it. The thirteen Grand Elders were half of the trump cards these families had, but Chen Fan had burned them all to ashes?
An elder of the Hu family, who had a fiery temper, said, "That's impossible. Not even the top ten elites of the Longevity Roll can do such a thing. Unless Chen Beixuan has already reached the Nascent Soul Level and become a Heavenly Lord!"
"Haha, thousands of cultivators in Medicine City saw that with their very own eyes. How would it be fake?" A white-haired elder sneered.
The fiery elder continued, "According to the intel, Chen Beixuan formed a Heavenly Cauldron with hundreds of Spirit Veins and burned all the Grand Elders to ashes. This is apparently fake. Only a Heavenly Lord can have such a Grand Divine Power. Also, Hu Guimin, Feng Chengzi and the other elders took their Quasi-Heavenly Treasures with them. They should have been able to use the treasures to heal and attack."
Although a Quasi-Heavenly Treasure wasn't as powerful as a real Heavenly Treasure, it was made by a Heavenly Lord and had some of the Heavenly Lord's power. Thirteen Quasi-Heavenly Treasures should have been enough to shatter Medicine City and everything within a thousand mile range.
This was why the Heavenly Lord Families thought they would win.
"It's useless. When Elder Hu noticed something was wrong, it was too late. Besides, the Quasi-Heavenly Treasures need time to activate, and there wasn't time for it on the battlefield."
Hu Yuanshuo, the leader of the Hu family, shook his head.
"So, what should we do?" the fiery elder asked.
This time, even Hu Yuanshuo frowned.
All the elders of the Hu family went silent.
The death of Hu Guimin and the others was a severe blow to the Hu family. Chen Fan even claimed their Quasi-Heavenly Treasure, the "Banner of Banishment, " which was devastating to them, as their Heavenly Lord had only left them four Quasi-Heavenly Treasures back then.
An elder hesitated and wondered, "Has Chen Beixuan really become a Nascent Soul Cultivator?"
"No, how earth-shattering would it be when someone becomes a Nascent Soul Heavenly Lord? Even the top ten Heavenly Regions and Mount Emperor in the Sacred Land would have been stirred, let alone the Beihuang Region. The Ancestral Patriarch of the Wang family would have been the first to know about it. This can't be hidden from him."
The white-haired elder, Hu Hekui, shook his head.
He frowned and said in uncertainty, "As for the Divine Power Chen Beixuan used, I've heard that there are some Heavenly Arts passed down in the historical sects that can be used to control the world. Every one of them is a powerful Grand Divine Power and the core art of a Heavenly Sect. If someone with a Golden Core Body uses them, he will have to pay a heavy price."
"How would there be no consequences when a mortal steals the power of Heaven?"
Even though most people weren't so sure about what Hu Hekui said, they still accepted it deep down.
The explanation that Chen Fan was a Heavenly Lord was insane. Chen Fan had only appeared in the Beihan Region for a few years and he was just thirty years old. No one could believe that he had become immortal.
"Even so, without the help of a Nascent Soul Ancestral Patriarch or using a Heavenly Treasure, I'm afraid nobody in the Beihuang Region can stop this man!"
Hu Yuanshuo shook his head.
The elders of the Hu family were terrified.
After all, Chen Fan was the enemy of the Hu family, whom they had made of their own accord. Many people really hated the dead Hu Xiao right then.
Not only the Hu family.
The senior members of the Feng family, the Nin family and the Taiyi Sect also had such a discussion.
Some people said they should use their Heavenly Treasures and Heavenly Arrays, and send their warriors after Chen Fan, in order to tell the world that the Heavenly Lord Families couldn't be provoked.
But those were only the thoughts of a small number of people.
Most leaders of the Heavenly Lord Families remained calm.
The battle between them and Chen Fan had yet to reach the most critical moment and they could only use their Heavenly Treasures when they were facing a great danger.
"But it's time for Chen Beixuan to be punished and restricted after running wild in the Beihuang Region."
Many people looked at the family in the City of Fallen Stars that ruled the Beihuang Region.
The most powerful family in the Beihuang Region was the Wang family that had a real Nascent Soul Ancestral Patriarch, but not the Heavenly Lord Families. Chen Fan would have to yield to them and Heavenly Lord Astral Sea after all.
No matter what, everyone admitted this.
Chen Fan was in the Beihuang Region and no family should underestimate him!
Meanwhile, Chen Fan had already left Medicine City and went deeper into the State of Ancient Medicine with the three girls and Zhao Juexian.
Forests and mountains took up most lands of the State of Ancient Medicine. There were beasts and danger everywhere, but it was also full of Spirit Qi, Spirit Medicines and Spirit Herbs.
Since this was the place where Spirit Medicines were naturally produced, the Heavenly Lord of Ancient Medicine chose this place to live, establish a sect and the Alchemy Guild.
Mu Hongti looked at the cauldron in Chen Fan's hands and asked, "Senior Chen, are these the Heavenly Pills you made?"
Yun Yier and Lin Wuhua were also curious and the little Qilin even stared at the cauldron while drooling.
"I guess, " Chen Fan replied.
The rusty Treasure Cauldron of a Hundred Medicines in his hand had shrunk to a three inches tall size.
A pleasant smell came out of the cauldron. The girls were then immediately relaxed, as if they were in a hot spring. Their True Essence even increased quickly and they felt as energetic as they were when they were younger.
"It's incredible. I only smelled them and I feel like I can live decades longer."
Yun Yier was impressed.
Lin Wuhua and Mu Hongti were startled and doubtful. They had seen normal Spirit Pills and Treasure Pills, but they weren't as terrifying as the Heavenly Pills in the cauldron. Before Chen Fan lifted the lid, they could already smell the pills and extend their lives.
"Haha."
Chen Fan chuckled.
In "Journey to the West, " anyone who smelled the Ginseng Fruit could live three hundred sixty years more and whoever ate one could live forty-seven thousand years longer.
Although the "Longevity Pills" Chen Fan had made weren't as effective as the Ginseng Fruit, they were made with twenty-two Heavenly Medicines, countless Treasure Medicines and Spirit Medicines. There was even the blood of thirteen superior-grade Golden Cores inside and the cauldron had gone through thirty-six transformations. Whoever smelled the pills would be able to live decades longer.
Everything Chen Fan had gotten ever since he came to Planet Tianhuang was put into the Longevity Pills. He relied on those pills for his Divine Body to reach the Great Perfection Level and complete the second transformation of the Deity Wheel.
"We can be immortal after taking the Longevity Pills!" Lin Wuhua exclaimed.
Yun Yier even said excitedly, "Senior, open the cauldron quickly. Let us see what the Longevity Pills look like!"
"All right!"
Chen Fan nodded.
Under the attention of the excited girls and the yellow Qilin, he slowly opened the lid of the cauldron. Everyone was immediately stunned.
