The Cloud Continent was divided into the Inner Land and the Outer Land with the Ruo Shui River as the boundary.
The Outer Land was divided into the Northern Outer Land, the Southern Outer Land, the Western Outer Land, and the Eastern Outer Land.
The Northern Mountain Land was an area close to the Ruo Shui River to the north of the Southern Outer Land. To the left and right of the Northern Mountain Land, there were two other areas that belonged to the Southern Outer Land that were close to the Ruo Shui River.
The Land of Beiqi was located to the east of the Northern Mountain Land. Although it was not as famous as the Northern Mountain Land, it was still a place full of outstanding people.
The reason why the Northern Mountains Region was so famous was naturally because of the Ou Clan and the Lu Clan.
The two families were ancient families that had been passed down for ten thousand years. They were also the two forces with the longest history in the entire Southern Outer Land.
No!
There was no third force in the entire Outer Land that had been passed down for ten thousand years like the Ou Family and the Lu Family.
On the Cloud Continent, there might be forces that had been passed down for ten thousand years like the Ou Family and the Lu Family. However, all of them were located in the Inner Land on the other side of the Ruo Shui River.
In the Outer Land, only the Ou Family and the Lu Family had been passed down for ten thousand years.
Due to this reason, even in the entire Southern Outer Continent, the Northern Mountain Land was a well-known place.
At the border between the Land of Beiqi and the Northern Mountain Land, there was a vast city. The city was bustling with people going in and out of the city.
This city was called Alchemist City.
In the center of Medicine Master City stood a tall tower. It was the city's landmark.
Outside the tower, there were five square plaques hanging from the top to the bottom. Each plaque had a single word written on it.
From top to bottom, it read 'Alchemist Guild'!
The people going in and out of the tower were like the people going in and out of Medicine Master City.
If one looked closely, they would notice that.
Most of the people going in and out of the tower had a badge pinned on their chest. It was the badge of an Alchemist.
Looking at the badge pinned on their chest, one could tell what grade of Alchemist they were.
The tower that stood in the center of Medicine Master City was the headquarters of the Southern Outer Land's Alchemist Guild. It was in charge of the Alchemist Guild in the entire Southern Outer Land.
Whoosh!
At this moment, a figure that was as fast as lightning flew from the horizon and reached the top of the tower in the blink of an eye.
However, when this person reached the top of the tower, he stopped in midair.
"I'm here to see the president. I have something to report."
This was an old man in green. His eyes fell on the middle-aged man in green who was blocking his way, and there was a hint of fear in his eyes.
It was as if this green-clothed middle-aged man was some kind of scourge.
The green-robed middle-aged man stood there, neither happy nor angry. His entire being seemed to have merged with the heavens and earth, giving the green-robed old man a great deal of pressure.
Unknowingly, cold sweat appeared on the green-robed old man's forehead and dripped down.
"Let him in."
At this moment, an aged voice came from the top of the tower. Although the voice was aged, it was extremely powerful.
"Yes."
Hearing the voice, the green-clothed middle-aged man who had been silent all this time responded respectfully.
Almost as soon as the green-robed man finished speaking, he disappeared into thin air as if he had never appeared.
"As expected of the people sent by the Inland's Alchemist Guild, they are indeed powerful! In the Southern Outer Continent, those that can defeat him are probably existences that are as rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns. "
After taking a deep breath, the green-robed old man muttered in a low voice.
After a short moment, he returned to his senses and flew to the top of the tower, arriving at a spacious room.
At the side of the room, an old man in a silver robe sat at the table, quietly savoring the fragrant tea in the teacup in his hand.
Even when the green-robed old man entered, it did not make him shift his gaze.
"President!"
The green-robed old man bowed respectfully to the silver-robed old man.
"Why didn't you stay in the Northern Mountain Land? Why did you come to Alchemist City?"
The silver-robed old man did not look at the green-robed old man and continued to savor the fragrant tea as he asked.
"President, I came to Alchemist City to look for you this time precisely because of this."
With a raise of his hand, an exquisite little box appeared in the green-robed old man's hand. The box was completely made of jasper, and it looked to be of high quality.
Unfortunately, the silver-robed old man still did not turn his head. He sat there and said indifferently, "You should know that ordinary things can't enter my, Cheng He's, eyes."
The silver-robed old man's calm tone was mixed with a sense of pride that came from his bones.
The green-robed old man was not surprised when he heard the silver-robed old man's words.
The silver-robed old man before him was the President of the Alchemist Guild's Main Guild in the Southern Outer Land. What had he not seen on a daily basis?
It was true that ordinary things could not enter his eyes.
However …
The green-robed old man looked at the exquisite jade box in his hand. His face was filled with confidence as he continued to say, "President, I think … I think this thing will definitely enter your eyes."
"Hmm?"
The moment the green-robed old man's words left his mouth, Cheng He finally turned his head and looked at the green-robed old man. "Now that you mention it, I'm a little curious … Hand it over." “
Cheng He knew the green-robed old man before him very well.
This was the person who used to follow him. Currently, he was the President of the Alchemist Guild's Main Guild in the Northern Mountain Land. At the same time, he was also an outstanding grade two alchemist.
It was precisely because of this that he knew the green-robed old man would not speak without thinking.
"Yes."
The green-robed old man replied respectfully. He took a few steps forward and placed the exquisite jade box in his hand on the table in front of Cheng He.
Pa!
Cheng He swiftly opened the jade box. A pill that was extremely familiar to him appeared before his eyes. He could not help but frown when he saw it.
"What you wanted me to see is this …"
Cheng He's expression darkened when he thought the green-robed old man had tricked him. However, before he could finish his sentence, his eyes widened in shock.
"This … This … How's this possible?!"
At this moment, Cheng He suddenly stood up and stared at the pill in the exquisite jade box on the table. He could not take his eyes off it.
He did not know when, but his body began to tremble violently due to excitement.
"Miracle! Miracle! "
After a long while, Cheng He took a deep breath and picked up the pill in the exquisite jade box with trembling hands. His movements were gentle as though he was caressing his lover.
"The purity is 91%! “
Gradually, Cheng He finally suppressed his excitement and calmed down. However, his eyes never left the pill in his hand.
As a grade one alchemist, it was only natural that he could tell.
The grade one Life Recovery Pill in his hand had a purity of 91% that could be said to be heaven-defying!
He had only heard of pills with such purity, but he had never seen one before.
"There's a legend in our Alchemist Guild … 10,000 years ago, there was a powerful powerhouse called Emperor Wu who could refine pills with a purity of more than 90%.
However, that's only a legend … It's been 10,000 years, so there's no way to tell if it's true or not. "
At this moment, Cheng He's thoughts were running wild, and he could not calm down for a long time.
"Where did you get this grade one Life Recovery Pill from?"
Cheng He exhaled and returned to his senses. The first thing he did was to look at the green-robed old man standing quietly at the side and ask with a burning gaze.
"Lord Guild Master, my direct disciple obtained this from the Lu Clan."
The green-robed old man seemed to be prepared for this. As soon as Cheng He finished speaking, he immediately replied.
"Lu Clan?"
Cheng He frowned when he heard the green-robed old man's words. "I'm the one who helped the Lu Clan refine the grade one pills … The purity of the grade one Life Recovery Pill that I refined was 70% at most.
However, the purity of this grade one Life Recovery Pill is more than 90%! "
Cheng He looked at the pill in his hand when he reached the end of his sentence.
He was certain.
He was definitely not the one who refined this pill.
"Lord Guild Master, there's something you don't know … Some time ago, a person with the surname Duan joined the Lu Clan and became the Lu Clan's First Interim Advisor! That person with the surname Duan is a grade one alchemist. "
The green-robed old man explained, "He's the second grade one alchemist in the Southern Outer Land after you, Lord Guild Master."
"Grade one alchemist?!"
Cheng He narrowed his eyes when he heard the green-robed old man's words. "He joined the Lu Clan?"
"Yes."
The green-robed old man nodded.
"You mean … this grade one Life Recovery Pill was refined by that alchemist with the surname Duan?"
Cheng He asked.
"It's most likely refined by him," the green-robed old man said.
The green-clad old man continued, "Some time ago, the Lu Clan issued a reward for a Spirit Fruit consumed by a Void Transformation Stage martial artist … One Spirit Fruit in exchange for one grade one Life Recovery Pill!"
"Initially, everyone thought the Lu Clan was stingy … However, when they heard the Lu Clan offered a grade one Life Recovery Pill with a purity of more than 90%, everyone went crazy!"
"When my direct disciple heard about this, he happened to have a spirit fruit consumed by a Void Transformation Stage martial artist. In order to verify the authenticity of this matter, he brought the spirit fruit to the Lu Clan to make the exchange.
At that time, there was another person who arrived at the Lu Clan with him. According to him, whether it was the grade one Life Recovery Pill that the Lu Clan gave him or the other person, both of them had a purity of more than 90%. "
When the green-robed old man reached this point, he paused for a moment before he continued to say, "When my direct disciple obtained the grade one Life Recovery Pill, he immediately passed it to me …
When I found out that this matter was unusual, I immediately came to look for you, Lord Guild Master. "
The green-robed old man finished speaking in one breath.
"You've done well."
Cheng He nodded at the green-robed old man in satisfaction. His eyes gleamed. "It seems like I'll have to make a trip to the Lu Clan to pay a visit to that alchemist with the surname Duan."
"Lord Guild Master, there's one more thing."
Suddenly, the green-robed old man seemed to have recalled something.
"Huh?"
Cheng He looked at the green-robed old man with a hint of confusion in his eyes.
"The alchemist with the surname Duan from the Lu Clan … I heard he's a young man who's not even 30 years old yet!"
