"Your Majesty, if I'm afraid of this human junior, then my alchemy will be at an end." Jiang Lichen sent a voice transmission to the Ruins Emperor. He obviously knew what the Ruins Emperor was worried about.
However, he was a dignified Alchemy Monarch who represented the entire Heaven Demon City. Now, he was being mocked by a junior, and he had to admit it?
It was like someone throwing a pile of shit at you. Not only did you catch it, you even licked it.
He, Jiang Lichen, could not afford to lose face like this.
"Alright then …" The Ruins Emperor nodded and did not say another word.
"How do you want to compete? When and where? So what if I lose? So what if I win? "
Although Jiang Lichen was rash, he knew that Yi Yun was not simple. It was best to figure out Yi Yun's tricks.
If it was a field that he wasn't good at, he definitely wouldn't brace himself to try it. That might cause him to fail miserably.
Yi Yun cupped his fists and said, "Pagoda Lord, you speak too seriously. I do not wish for this competition to affect the harmony between us. The reason I proposed the competition was to prove what I just said and not to prove who is better at alchemy between me and the Heaven Fey City. I only wish to tell Your Majesty that it's useless even if I give the Myriad Form Shura Pill's recipe to others. "
"Furthermore, the Myriad Form Asura Pill requires the blood of the Ancestor God. It's naturally not a problem for Heaven Fey City to gather the other precious materials, but the blood of the Ancestor God is nowhere to be found."
As Yi Yun spoke, he noticed that the Ruins Emperor remained unperturbed. This left him slightly taken aback. Could it be that … the ancient Heaven Fey actually possess the Ancestor God's blood?
The Blood of the Ancestor God wasn't something that could be obtained by just any Celestial Race expert. If that was the case, it wouldn't be strange.
It had to be the Old Ancestor of the Divine Race!
After the Dao Originator Celestial Thearch vanished, the Ancestor God was the strongest person in the world!
Yi Yun and the Blood King had obtained some of the Ancestor God's blood due to their own opportunities.
Could it be that the ancient Heaven Fey had one too?
On careful thought, the peerless Fey Ancestor who built the Heaven Fey City was also an astonishing figure. In the billions of years that followed, the ancient Heaven Fey's accumulation was unimaginable. It was not impossible for them to obtain some of the Ancestor God's blood.
Upon realizing this, Yi Yun did not say another word. Instead, he took out a jade box.
"There are two Myriad Form Asura Pills in this box!"
The moment that was said, Jiang Lichen and the Ruins Emperor's eyes lit up!
Putting aside the heaven-defying value of the elixir formula, just a few of these elixir pills were enough to tempt a Demon Thearch.
"Your Majesty, I'll compete with Pagoda Lord. If Pagoda Lord has the confidence to completely extract the medicinal essence and energy within the two Myriad Form Shura Pills without damaging them, restoring them to their original state, I'll admit defeat and hand over the pill formula. At the same time, I'll offer the two Myriad Form Shura Pills to Your Majesty!"
The competition that Yi Yun proposed was actually very simple.
It would be meaningless for him to slap Jiang Lichen's face in front of everyone if they were to compete in alchemy.
Furthermore, most of Yi Yun's alchemical skills came from the Sinkhole. The Sinkhole's alchemical skills were not necessarily superior to the Chaos Heavens'.
Even if he swept through the Heaven Fey City's alchemy, he would only offend the ancient Heaven Fey. That did not benefit Yi Yun.
Yi Yun wanted a deal that was in line with his own interests. This was the reason why he kept the two Myriad Form Shura Pills.
"Extract and restore the medicinal potency?"
Jiang Lichen pondered slightly. To put it bluntly, elixirs were vessels for medicinal essence and energy.
There were three steps to alchemy. The first step was to extract the medicinal essence from the various ingredients. The second step was to use the alchemical fire to temper the medicinal essence. The third step was to fuse the medicinal essence into one and condense it into a pill!
Now, Yi Yun wanted Jiang Lichen to extract the medicinal essence from the Myriad Form Shura Pills without damaging them. It was equivalent to reversing the third step.
In fact, the third step was considered relatively simple among the three steps of alchemy.
An experienced alchemist could tell the technique and process used by the alchemist to form the pill after receiving a pill.
If he was unable to restore the simplest third step, it was basically impossible for him to refine the Myriad Form Shura Pills. It was even possible that he could not even understand the pill formula!
"Hand over the pills," said Jiang Lichen in a deep voice. He did not let his guard down just because the challenge looked simple.
"Pagoda Lord, aren't you being too anxious? What if you fail to crack it?"
"What do you want?"
When Yi Yun said that, he looked at the Ruins Emperor again. "Your Majesty, if Pagoda Lord Jiang is unable to restore the Myriad Form Shura Pills, these two Myriad Form Shura Pills will still be offered to Your Majesty. However … I wish to borrow the Heaven Fey Ancient Ruins' Fey Altar!"
The moment Yi Yun said that, the pupils of the Ruins Emperor and Jiang Lichen constricted slightly.
This Yi Yun had great ambitions!
Back when Yi Yun planned on helping Jiang Xiaorou vie for the throne, he had already been eyeing the Heaven Fey Ancient Ruins' Fey Altar.
Back then, Yu Rou had mentioned that in two years, the royal families of the peak races in the Chaos Heavens would jointly conduct a comprehensive test on their members.
The royal family members who obtained first place would receive generous rewards, including entry into the Fey Altar!
The so-called Fey Altar was a place of worship in the Heaven Fey Ancient Ruins' forbidden ground. Over billions of years, countless powerful Fey had perished there. The lifeblood powers of these powerful Fey's perished remained in the Heaven Fey Ancient Ruins' forbidden ground. If they were stirred by mystic techniques, coupled with the entry of peerless geniuses, they could trigger a Heavenly Tribulation on the altar!
This was the supreme Heavenly Tribulation of the Chaos Heavens!
Yi Yun had previously consumed the Myriad Form Shura Pills to fuse the three bloodlines in his body, but it was only a fusion. He was still lacking tempering!
Furthermore, Yi Yun had only cultivated for a short period of time. Before he broke through to the Godly Monarch realm, he needed the tempering of the Heavenly Tribulation.
And the Heavenly Tribulation Yi Yun experienced in the Sinkhole was just too weak. Compared to his body that needed to be tempered, it was nothing worth mentioning.
Yi Yun was in desperate need to enter the Fey Altar!
However, even if Jiang Xiaorou obtained first place in the competition for princes and even became crown princess, only Jiang Xiaorou could enter the Fey Altar.
As a human, it was impossible for Yi Yun to enter with Jiang Xiaorou.
Therefore, after Yi Yun refined the Myriad Form Shura Pills, he had an idea.
He directly got the Blood King to publicly refine the pills, allowing everyone in Heaven Fey City to see the Blood King's advancement.
A pill that could enhance a Fey Thearch was worth a spot in the Fey Altar.
The Ruins Emperor looked at Yi Yun. So this was Yi Yun's goal.
The Fey Altar's Lightning Tribulation was something that even a prince who had stimulated his ancestral bloodline could perish if challenged, much less a human.
This human's dual cultivation of body and essence had reached such a stage. It was enough to put many Fey to shame.
Was there really no danger in allowing such a person to mature?
The Ruins Emperor was in a dilemma.
Yi Yun read the Ruins Emperor's mind and said, "Your Majesty, don't worry. Although I'm human, my sister, Jiang Xiaorou, is an ancient Heaven Fey. I will not destroy my sister's foundation. I can swear on my Dao heart that as long as the Fey do not take the initiative to invade me, I will not harm the interests of the Fey."
(In 2019, I wish everyone a happy new year. All the best. May your family be happy and prosperous.)
