Chapter 734: Chapter 734: Law Descends

Guiyang and Hall Master Jing Yan’s alchemy competition was set to last for one month.

A month was not a short time, but to refine a furnace of ninth-level elixirs within a month was incredibly fast.

During this period of alchemy, more than half of the Pill Masters in the inner circle did not leave the scene at all. They stayed from the beginning to the end, watching intently.

It was rare to see a Great Pill King personally refining, and the Pill Masters cherished this opportunity. Many of them were able to glean some insights from the process. Those who left the scene were mostly Pill Masters with lower abilities, completely unable to understand what they were watching.

The movement of the Martial Artists in the outer circle, however, was considerable. Since they were not Pill Masters, they found it pointless to stay in one place for a month just to watch Jing Yan and Guiyang work with the pill furnaces and thus left.

However, as the month drew to a close, nearly all the Martial Artists who had left returned. They may not have been interested in watching the alchemy, but they were very interested in the outcome of this Alchemy Dao competition.

Outside the Splendid Dojo, in a room of a tavern,

"Ancestor, it’s about time. I am now going back to wait for the results to come out," Gu Xianlun said to Ancient Family Ancestor Gu Wanquan, bowing.

Gu Wanquan had also come to the Holy City.

Of course, he and Ancient Family Patriarch Gu Jinlan had only recently arrived in the Holy City. At the start of the Pill Conference, Gu Wanquan and Gu Jinlan had stayed within the Ancient Family stronghold.

Gu Wanquan had also heard that Jing Yan had used the Longevity Pill Recipe to gamble against Guiyang, which made him come by himself.

"Mm, Xian Lun, go ahead! When the results are out, have someone send the news back immediately," Gu Wanquan nodded, his eyes flickering as he spoke.

"Yes!" Gu Xianlun responded.

Then, he left the tavern with Tong Yue and some Ancient Family Elders, heading back to the Splendid Dojo.

After they left, the excitement on the face of Ancient Family Patriarch Gu Jinlan became more apparent.

"Ancestor!"

"If we can get our hands on the Longevity Pill Recipe, it will provide endless support for our family’s development!" Gu Jinlan’s voice trembled with excitement, his eyes bright with eagerness.

"Mm. To obtain the recipe for the Longevity Pill would indeed be a wonderful thing. Our family could easily surpass the other Six Great Families and become recognized as the number one family on the continent," Gu Wanquan responded, nodding seriously, his eyes revealing his anticipation.

"If only we could find a chance to take down Jing Yan."

"If Jing Yan dies, then only our Gai Family will control the Longevity Pill Recipe. Then, those powerful beings who want the Longevity Pill will have no choice but to plead with our Gai Family," Gu Jinlan imagined a multitude of Dao Emperor Realm Practitioners coming to their door, begging for the pill, and couldn’t help but laugh.

"The first step is to get the Longevity Pill Recipe!" Gu Wanquan glanced at Gu Jinlan.

"Ancestor, even if Jing Yan is the Great Pill King, how can his alchemy skills compare to Mr. Guiyang? This fool, to compete against Mr. Guiyang and even wager the Longevity Pill Recipe, is utterly foolish!" Gu Jinlan scoffed.

Gu Wanquan didn’t speak this time. Clearly, he too believed that Jing Yan couldn’t possibly be stronger than Guiyang in Alchemy Dao.

This time, Jing Yan was bound to lose, and the Longevity Pill Recipe would fall into the hands of the Gai Family. Once the Gai Family obtained the recipe, they could also use the Longevity Pill to win people over. Then, they wouldn’t have to worry too much about Jing Yan building up his own forces.

Splendid Dojo!

"Hall Master Jing Yan, have you finished refining the Heavenly Snow Elixir?" Guiyang stood up and looked at Jing Yan, asking.

"It’s finished!" Jing Yan looked back at Guiyang, also standing up, and said with a smile.

In fact, Jing Yan had finished his work on the elixir a while ago.

Until now, he had remained seated, actually having been meditating with closed eyes all along, even taking this brief moment to perceive the Mysterious Rules between heaven and earth.

After stepping into the Late Stage of the Dao Emperor Realm, Jing Yan’s sensitivity to the Power of Laws between heaven and earth had grown increasingly strong. Although his perception of the Power of Laws was still somewhat vague, Jing Yan already had a direction in his heart.

"So, shall we start verifying with the furnace now?" Gui Yang’s profound eyes returned to the Pill Furnace before him.

He reached out and opened the Pill Furnace.

Under the watchful eyes of the masses, silver-white Elixirs gradually scattered, emitting dazzling Light Halos as they flew out of the Pill Furnace.

"Six pieces!"

"Ninth-level Elixir, forming six from one furnace?"

"Truly impressive, truly worthy of being Ghost Hand Gui Yang. Guiyang Great Pill King’s ability in the Alchemy Dao is absolutely the best in the world, with no one in the entire Heavenly Origin Continent able to match!"

"Yes! This time, Hall Master Jing Yan is planted. Losing the competition isn’t important, but that Longevity Pill Recipe... tsk tsk..."

Murmers spread across the entire square.

"Boom!"

Amidst the discussion of numerous Martial Artists, a colorful Light Halo suddenly descended from the sky.

The colorful Light Halo surged towards the Elixir in Gui Yang’s hand, leaving a brilliant trail in the space.

A Perfect Quality Elixir was born!

Even those Martial Artists who weren’t Pill Masters, many instantly understood the significance of this phenomenon!

"Ninth-level Perfect Elixir!"

"I... I, Guiyang Great Pill King’s ability is just too terrifying, isn’t it? A Perfect Quality Elixir, and it’s a Ninth-level Elixir?"

"Pill God!"

"Guiyang Great Pill King is the Pill God!"

The entire square, after the arrival of the colorful Light Halo, first fell into sudden silence, then erupted with frenzied roaring.

The crowd was completely boiling.

On today’s Heavenly Origin Continent, a Perfect Quality Elixir is legendary. Even though there were Perfect Quality Elixirs passed down from before the battles of the Human Gods, because they were so rare, hardly anyone had ever seen one.

Now, however, everyone had personally witnessed the birth of a Perfect Quality Elixir.

How could they not be excited?

Although Hu Donghe can now also refine Perfect Quality Elixirs, he has yet to succeed in making a Ninth-level Perfect Quality Elixir. Moreover, only a few Great Families knew that Hu Donghe could refine perfect Elixirs, and the news had not spread.

Fiery gazes were all fixed on the Elixir in Gui Yang’s hand.

This was the Heavenly Snow Elixir, an exceptional item even for practitioners of the Dao Emperor Realm. Although this pill wasn’t as good as the Ten Thousand Spirit Returning to Origin Pill, how many people would have the chance to obtain such an Elixir?

Even the Hall Master of the Holy Hall found it difficult to obtain a Ten Thousand Spirit Returning to Origin Pill.

Moreover, this included a Perfect Quality Heavenly Snow Elixir.

Many practitioners in the Dao Emperor Realm had red eyes, almost wishing they could rush forward and snatch the Elixir from Gui Yang’s hands. However, they were still rational, suppressing the impulse in their hearts, refraining from actually doing so.
