At the edge of the sky, an almost invisible shadow flashed by. Soon after, a figure instantly appeared on the empty square. After circling the square once, it finally stopped in front of Gu Li.
A delicate and handsome face, a black robe, a body full of dense Flame Energy, and a frightening Spiritual Strength that caused the space around him to fluctuate. Who else could this person be other than Xiao Yan!
Xiao Yan's appearance caused quite a commotion in the entire empty square. It seemed like old monster Hu's words were not the truth!
When Gu Li saw Xiao Yan in front of him, a look of disbelief appeared on his aged face. Chi Lin, who was beside him, also suddenly stood up the moment Xiao Yan appeared.
Given Gu Li's strength, the changes in Xiao Yan's body caused even him to be extremely shocked. He could clearly feel that within a month, Xiao Yan's physical strength had actually made a qualitative leap!
Under Gu Li's observation, Xiao Yan, who looked no different from a weak scholar on the surface, was likely not weaker than Wei Yi in terms of physical strength. In fact, if Xiao Yan unleashed his full strength, even Wei Yi would find it difficult to match up against him.
However, what caused Gu Li to be most surprised was Xiao Yan's frightening speed. Although he had heard of Xiao Yan's frightening speed a month ago, it was only today that he saw Xiao Yan's true speed. Moreover, the speed that Xiao Yan had just displayed was even more frightening than what the crowd had described!
With such speed, even Gu Li would have to treat it seriously. Just based on this point, Xiao Yan's speed was so fast that it could cause one to be speechless.
"Haha, chairman Gu Li, it seems that you missed me greatly after not seeing me for a month. Since you called me back from afar, I did not dare to delay and hurriedly rushed back …"
Xiao Yan's words were naturally casual. However, Gu Li's eyebrows twitched. Immediately, he reacted and replied with a smile. He naturally wished for Xiao Yan to help him get off the stage.
Everyone in the viewing gallery understood that the reason why Gu Li had delayed for so long was likely to be because he was waiting for Yan Xiao to return. Looking at the aura that Yan Xiao was emitting from his body, he did not waste this one month!
Compared to the relaxed feeling in Gu Li's heart, Mo Di and Wei Yi's expressions instantly became gloomy. Moreover, there was even more seriousness!
No matter how they thought about it, it was impossible for Fang Xun and Wang Qi, who had been famous for a long time, to be defeated by a mere three star Ban Di like Xiao Yan. Or perhaps, could it be that those two old things had reached some kind of agreement with Yan Xiao?
Mo Di and Wei Yi involuntarily looked at each other when they thought until this point. However, they saw the grave expression on the other party's face. This Yan Xiao was even more difficult to deal with than they had imagined in their hearts!
As for old demon Hu, his heart was also incomparably solemn. The speed that Xiao Yan had displayed earlier was likely not inferior to him. However, the most important thing was that Xiao Yan's strength was only that of a three star half Martial Emperor!
Xiao Yan's timely return also allowed a large stone to fall from Gu Li's heart. The most important Alchemist Grand Meeting could finally continue.
After chatting for a while with Xiao Yan, Gu Li's body turned and flew in front of old demon Hu. With his back facing the latter, Gu Li did not care about the gloomy expression on old demon Hu's face behind him. Gu Li's gaze swept across everyone in the entire empty square. Immediately, his hand pressed down on the empty space in front of him, causing everyone in the square to become quiet. After which, Gu Li slowly opened his mouth and laughed.
"Haha, everyone, that was merely a small interlude earlier. There is no need for everyone to take it to heart. The most important thing is that my Alchemist Association's Honorary Elder, Yan Xiao, has already returned. Therefore, the old me announces that the Alchemist Grand Meeting will continue!"
"Clamor!"
After Gu Li's words sounded, the entire empty square instantly sounded with enthusiastic applause. However, this sound was extremely ear-piercing in the ears of Mo Di and Wei Yi …
That old demon Hu's elderly face appeared incomparably gloomy. His pair of sinister old eyes were like an eagle's as they stared intently at Gu Li in front of him. There was an indescribable viciousness deep within his eyes.
Gu Li also seemed to have sensed this. However, he merely used the corner of his eyes to gently glance at old demon Hu behind him. With his strength, even old demon Hu, who was also an eight star half Martial Emperor, would definitely not dare to act rashly.
After all, this was the territory of his Alchemist Association. Additionally, Gu Li also had Chi Lin, a helper who was not any weaker than him. Hence, these two people could be said to be invincible existences within this Savage Ancient City. If old demon Hu really dared to attack, it was likely that the one who would suffer in the end would be him. As an old fellow who had lived for such a long time, he was not the slightest bit foolish.
Gu Li's opening speech had ended. Everything in this arena should finally be handed over to Xiao Yan and the other two. Gu Li and Xiao Yan exchanged glances and smiled. After which, they swept a glance at Wei Yi, who was standing in the distance. Their bodies moved and they returned to the judges' seats.
Old demon Hu coldly snorted. He waved his large sleeve and his body flashed. Soon after, he also disappeared from the middle of the empty square.
At the same time, the invisible space above the empty square began to distort. Soon after, it condensed into a stone platform out of thin air. It appeared as though it was embedded in the air and did not move at all.
Xiao Yan also knew that this was not some kind of test. At their level, an ordinary test would not be able to reveal anything. If one wished to witness the strength of a high tier alchemist, one would only be able to discover the slightest detail through alchemy.
The three stone platforms formed a triangle and were scattered in three different directions of the empty square. Xiao Yan and the other two did not hesitate. Mo Di and Wei Yi's bodies moved and each of them rushed onto a stone platform.
Xiao Yan also changed his footwork. An extremely dim silver light flashed under Xiao Yan's feet. At the same time, Xiao Yan's body also instantly appeared on the remaining stone platform.
At the spot where Xiao Yan had disappeared, Xiao Yan's illusory figure actually slowly lifted his head at this moment. His eyes slowly met with Xiao Yan's eyes. Soon after, the illusory figure smiled and suddenly disappeared.
The strangeness of this scene caused everyone in the entire viewing gallery to be shocked. It was just an illusory figure, yet it was actually able to move. This was the first time in their lives that they had seen such power!
Xiao Yan was too lazy to explain. However, at this moment, Xiao Yan's heart was somewhat excited. Currently, he was able to rely on the profoundness of the Nine Transformations Body Art to make his illusory figure move. If he continued to practice in the future, he would be able to exist for a longer period of time and his body would become even more solid. Then, wouldn't he have an additional countless number of avatars? This would be a great help in a battle. It was likely that very few people could reach such a level!
With this thought in mind, Xiao Yan's heart involuntarily felt somewhat excited. However, the most important thing now was still the Alchemist Grand Meeting. After waiting for nearly two months, he could finally fight with a high rank alchemist!
Although Xiao Yan had a grudge against the two of them in his heart, he was currently more interested in their alchemy skills. As for the debt between the two of them, it would not be too late to settle it in the future …
Xiao Yan's previous technique had caused Mo Di to be extremely surprised. However, he did not have the luxury to think about it now. With a wave of his large sleeve, a black flame instantly swept out from the vortex within his body. It transformed into a dragon snake with a towering aura that continuously writhed in the space in front of Mo Di. Wave after wave of terrifying aura also spread from his body, causing the expressions of some of the Half-emperors present to involuntarily change.
Soon after, Mo Di's hand rotated across the space, and a black dragon snake instantly appeared. It opened its large mouth, and a dense black fog was spat out. Subsequently, the fog continued to transform around its body. Finally, it transformed into a black snake cauldron that looked somewhat terrifying.
Although Wei Yi's green-gold flame was inferior to Mo Di's, it still possessed an extraordinary might. The enormous green-gold beast's body suddenly shook, and an overbearing flame strength instantly spread, forming an invisible medicinal cauldron around its body.
Soon after, the green-gold beast opened its large mouth, and a fire pillar that reached the sky was spat out from its mouth. Soon after, it collided with the invisible medicinal cauldron. It swiftly wrapped around the cauldron like paint, and another medicinal cauldron with a vast and mighty aura was swiftly formed at this moment.
It was Xiao Yan's turn next. After seeing Xiao Yan's Heavenly Flame, everyone had an even deeper impression of Xiao Yan's flame. Now that Xiao Yan and Wei Yi had already lit up their cauldrons, it was likely that the fire cauldron that Xiao Yan was going to form with his Heavenly Flame would be extraordinary as well!
However, while everyone was anticipating in their hearts, Xiao Yan frowned slightly, and hesitated a little in his heart.
Forming a cauldron with a Heavenly Flame was something that Xiao Yan could do in the blink of an eye. It was not a big deal …
However, the key was that he was going to refine a true Di tier medicinal pill today!
Although Xiao Yan was fortunate enough to see this kind of medicinal pill before, he had merely seen it. Forget about understanding its medicinal properties, Xiao Yan had never even come into contact with the basic pill formula …
Now that it was his first time refining an Di tier medicinal pill, Xiao Yan could not help but feel a little nervous in his heart. He did not wish to lose to these two fellows in his first attempt at refining an Di tier medicinal pill …
Xiao Yan hesitated for a moment in his heart. Everyone in the viewing gallery also began to look at each other in confusion. Even Gu Li had exchanged glances with Chi Lin by the side at this moment. However, both of them frowned and did not say anything. Just what was Xiao Yan planning to do? It was difficult for them to guess …
Finally, after a long while, Xiao Yan finally made a decision in his heart. A domineering glint flashed across his eyes, and Xiao Yan's figure, which was standing on the stone platform, appeared out of thin air. Soon after, his finger touched the Storage Ring on his finger. With a thought, a medicinal cauldron, which was as strong as Mount Tai, appeared in front of everyone's eyes …
In the next instant, on the judges' seats, the expressions on Gu Li and Chi Lin's faces instantly froze. Mo Di and Wei Yi were also in a similar state …
