The reason why Qin Yichen gave the pills to the envoy and asked him to bring it to the city lord was because he hoped to borrow the city lord's power to spread the news. By then, the matter would be set in stone, and even Tian Lu wouldn't be able to change anything.
After agreeing to Qin Yichen's request, the envoy didn't leave. Instead, he stared at Qin Yichen.
"Cough cough."
Qin Yichen coughed and took out another box, handing it to the envoy. "This is a small token of my appreciation. I hope you don't mind."
The envoy took the box and opened a small corner. The fragrance of the pills wafted into his nose. His eyes lit up, and he quickly closed the box.
Inside the box were ten compound pills with four different medicinal properties!
This was definitely a great gift.
Because, these days, he had watched Dan Xuanzi and the others refine pills in the Pill Hall. He knew how difficult it was to refine compound pills. Even a peak Heaven Stage alchemist would find it difficult to refine them.
Compound pills with four different medicinal properties were even more difficult.
If he took these pills out to auction …
The price would probably be shocking!
This was a great gift!
After receiving the benefits, the envoy of the Martial Saint City also understood that it was basically hopeless to bring Qin Yichen and Feng Qianxue to the Martial Saint City.
He didn't know why Qin Yichen was so wary of Tian Lu, but he didn't plan to think too deeply about it.
After all, one was a youth with the possibility of breaking through to the Saint Stage, while the other was a respected Saint Stage alchemist. Even if there were some unfavorable rumors about them, it wasn't something that ordinary people could talk about.
"Since that's the case, I'll return to the Saint Martial City first."
The envoy nodded. Just as he was about to leave, he seemed to have thought of something and suddenly smiled at Qin Yichen. "You said you wanted to bring glory to the Saint Martial City, right?"
Qin Yichen nodded, but couldn't help but mutter in his heart. Was there a need to be so fast? Couldn't he just take it as a joke?
"Haha, I was right about you. Kid, I'm looking forward to your performance on the Stairway to Heaven!"
The envoy from the Martial Saint City laughed heartily and nodded at Qin Yichen in satisfaction. After which, his figure moved and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Along the way, the envoy of the Martial Saint City suddenly slapped his forehead as if he had thought of something. An awkward expression appeared on his face.
"That's right, this kid is only at the mid stage of the emperor realm. It's only been half a year since the Celestial Stairway opened. Even if he breaks through, he'll only be at the advanced stage of the emperor realm at most, right?"
"I don't think there's ever been an emperor realm cultivator in the Stairway of Heaven, right? Forget it, forget it. Anyway, that thing has nothing to do with one's realm. Hmm … "
"Stairway to Heaven?"
Looking at the place where the envoy of the Martial Saint City disappeared, Qin Yichen had a look of astonishment on his face.
As a pinnacle saint-grade pill refiner in his past life, he was no stranger to the stairway to heaven that the envoy spoke of. After all, it was an important channel for Heaven's Elysium to select disciples.
On the continent where thousands of races reigned supreme, the human race was the weakest. Outside, they were reduced to being kept in captivity by the other races, and even became food for the other races.
Heaven's Elysium was the sacred land of the human race.
It was formed by the three strongest forces of the human race: the Tianwu Domain, the Moon Palace, and the Sword Feather Sect.
It was also because of Heaven's Elysium's existence that the human race had a place to breathe and multiply.
The main reason why the human race was so peaceful was mainly because Heaven's Elysium kept all disasters out of the ordinary people's sight.
As for the Martial Saint City, it was actually an organization set up by Heaven's Elysium to keep the various sacred lands in check and balance.
For example, Lan Xinyu, whom Qin Yichen had met in the Tianming Desolate Domain, might be from Heaven's Elysium.
Otherwise, he couldn't think of any other force that could nurture a true empyrean expert.
The person who had taken Little Ling'er and Lü Linghan away was from one of the terrifying forces that had created Heaven's Elysium: the Moon Palace.
"Qin Yichen, don't listen to his nonsense!"
While Qin Yichen was pondering, Yu Qianqiu's voice suddenly rang out. Taihao Sacred Master was already standing behind him without him noticing.
"Qin Yichen pays his respects to the Prime!"
Qin Yichen bowed to Yu Qianqiu, then asked, "Prime, how long until the Stairway to Heaven opens?"
In his previous life, he hadn't passed the Stairway to Heaven's Elysium. Instead, he had been accepted into Heaven's Elysium after becoming a saint-grade alchemist.
Saint-grade alchemists were one of the most important resources of the human race.
"Less than half a year."
Yu Qianqiu frowned. After pondering for a while, he slowly replied.
Then, Yu Qianqiu's gaze fell on Qin Yichen's face. Looking at the latter's determined expression, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
"Qin Yichen, although your talent is not bad, the Stairway to Heaven isn't a place that just anyone can challenge!" Yu Qianqiu shook his head.
The Stairway to Heaven's Elysium was created by gathering the strongest saints of the human race at that time.
There were a hundred and eight steps on the Stairway to Heaven, and every step allowed one to undergo a baptism of holy light. It was also a treasure trove for cultivating the elites of the human race.
However, the reason why it was called the Stairway to Heaven was because every step had a terrifying aura. Moreover, that aura ignored one's cultivation level and directly descended on one's body and mind. Wanting to climb those steps was as difficult as ascending the heavens!
Over the years, the Stairway to Heaven had baptized countless elites of the human race. However, there was no lack of people who tried too hard to climb the Stairway and ended up being crushed by the aura!
Qin Yichen also had some understanding of this. However, there wasn't the slightest hint of fear on his face. Instead, there was a hint of excitement.
After entering Heaven's Elysium, he might be able to come into contact with the Moon Palace. Who knows, he might even be able to meet Lü Linghan and Little Ling 'er!
He wondered how the mother and daughter were doing now …
'Well, it's not a bad idea to let him broaden his horizons …'
Yu Qianqiu thought to himself as he looked at Qin Yichen.
"You can go if you want. However, I'll personally train you for the next six months. If you can't reach a level that satisfies me, then don't even think about participating."
Yu Qianqiu looked at Qin Yichen and said with an unquestionable authority.
"Yes!"
Hearing that, Qin Yichen's eyes shone with surprise.
"I'll come find you in three days."
Yu Qianqiu took a deep breath and said slowly.
Then, he took a step forward, and with a burst of obscure spatial fluctuations, his figure disappeared from Qin Yichen's sight.
Seeing this, Dan Xuanzi, who was behind Qin Yichen, was speechless. After a while, he muttered, "Lunatic, what a lunatic …"
As a Temple Master, he knew a little about the Stairway to Heaven.
Every year, the Twelve Sacred Grounds would send talented people from their sacred grounds to participate in the Stairway to Heaven. As long as someone performed well on the Stairway to Heaven, they would be accepted into Heaven's Elysium.
As long as someone entered Heaven's Elysium, their sacred ground would also receive a considerable amount of resources as a reward. At the same time, they would also be taken special care of by the Martial Saint City.
However, it wasn't easy to attract the attention of Heaven's Elysium and enter Heaven's Elysium through the Stairway to Heaven.
In order to perform well on the Stairway to Heaven, who knew how many talented youths were seriously injured by the aura, leaving behind irrecoverable injuries. Some were even crushed to pieces by the aura.
