Unrivaled Medicine God, page 502
The division between ordinary Divine Kings and first-rate Divine Kings was merely the division of essence energy realm.
Ninth Level Dao Profound was a minor realm with a tremendous span. From just entering Ninth Level Dao Profound to the Ninth Level Dao Profound’s great circle of perfection, this was a very drawn-out process.
That did not mean that the strength of first-rate Divine Kings was definitely stronger than ordinary Divine Kings.
If one’s concept comprehension was very impressive, ordinary Divine Kings could likewise crush first-rate Divine Kings.
Just take Ye Yuan for example, with his concepts comprehension, he would be able to easily crush first-rate Divine Kings when he just entered Ninth Level Dao Profound, even peak Divine Kings.
While Void Mystic powerhouses, unless they had special means, otherwise, their essence energy realm was not much stronger compared to peak Divine Kings.
But their strength could fling peak Divine Kings ten streets behind.
The Nine Truth Pill was just a medicinal pill for increasing essence energy. Ruan Shuangzhou never would have thought that his second supreme true intent would be comprehended without extra effort just like that.
This was not just a tiny bit to his strength increase.
Ruan Shuangzhou’s second supreme true intent was stuck for several hundred years. There was basically no hope of breaking through already. But this arcane insight Nine Truth Pill actually directly let him comprehend the second supreme true intent.
Ao Qian said in surprise, “Could it be that this arcane insight Nine Truth Pill can even increase comprehension ability?”
Ruan Shuangzhou also had a bewildered look and said, “That, I don’t know! All in all, when I was breaking through, a flash of inspiration suddenly appeared, and I comprehended it just like that. As for whether or not can it really increase comprehension ability, it will have to depend on cultivation in the future.”
Jiang Taicang had an envious look as he said, “If it’s really able to increase comprehension ability, this arcane insight medicinal pill is also too heaven-defying!”
Many Divine King experts were unable to break through in their entire lives. They were lacking in comprehension ability. If arcane insight medicinal pills could increase comprehension ability, that its function to martial artists was simply incalculable.
Ao Qian trio looked at Ye Yuan. This time, they were utterly convinced by him.
They were all Divine King experts with very senior qualifications and whose strength pierced the heavens. The reason why they followed Ye Yuan was also being compelled by the circumstances.
Although they had some understanding towards Ye Yuan’s past life’s might, that was all hearsay, and they did not have a direct understanding.
But now, they were very motivated. Because they saw limitless possibility from Ye Yuan!
Following Ye Yuan, they might have even greater development space in the future!
Seeing Ye Yuan and the others came out of the dragon clan with his own eyes, Ao Duo also heaved a long sigh in relief.
An authentic Dragon Lord staying in the clan, he was listless all over.
Of course, the only regret was that the Sacred Dragon Token was unable to return to the clan.
“Duo-er, stop having any more designs on the Sacred Dragon Token in the future! Ye Yuan he is the dragon race’s common lord. This point will never ever change, you need to remember that!” after Ye Yuan left, Ao Yong said solemnly.
“But Old Ancestor, why is that so? How could a human obtain the Sacred Dragon Token’s recognition and also, why would he have an Atavism Dragon Soul?” Ao Duo said, unresignedly.
Ye Yuan’s existence was simply like a fish bone stuck in the throat to him.
If Ye Yuan was the dragon race’s common lord, then what did he count as?
Ao Yong shook his head and said, “Although I don’t know why, he definitely has great connections with the dragon clan! There is absolutely no way a physique like the Atavism Dragon Soul would appear on a human without rhyme or reason. But since it appeared, we can only accept it unconditionally! The terror of a bloodline backlash, don’t you forget it!”
Ao Duo’s expression changed, and he nodded his head and did not speak anymore.
Ao Yong mused for a moment and continued, “After Ye Yuan reincarnated, his lucky chances were heaven-defying. He has likely already shouldered heaven’s mandate! Him becoming the dragon race’s common lord might not be a bad thing to my dragon race. The Sacred Dragon Token might be more useful in his hands than in our hands.”
Ao Duo was silent and did not speak, but he also knew deep down that what Old Ancestor said was the correct thing. It was just that he was in this position and could not quite let go of many things.
…
Cloudmarsh City.
It had always been the paradise for alchemists.
Because it was adjacent to the Immemorial Medicine Garden, the medicinal pills market here was very prosperous.
Especially some itinerant alchemists all liked to gather here. In the course of time, this place became the number three great faction apart from the Alchemist Association and Medicine King Hall.
At present, the Medicine King Hall was falling into pieces. Although it was still the Medicine King Hall in name, it was already no longer the Medicine King Hall in reality. The Cloudmarsh City became the Divine Realm’s number two great Alchemy Path faction with a leap.
The reason why Cloudmarsh City could stand tall and not collapse originated from its powerful spirit medicine resources.
Even the Alchemist Association would sometimes come here and gather spirit medicines.
Of course, the Alchemist Association was just a loose organization. Not all the alchemists were subordinate to the Alchemist Association.
At present, the opening of the Immemorial Medicine Garden was at hand. Many more martial artists and alchemists gathered here.
“Wow, this place really has so many spirit medicines! As long as one has money, it’s virtually not a problem to want to refine whatever medicinal pill here!” Xiao Ruyan jumped for joy as she said.
Coming to Cloudmarsh City, Ye Yuan did not let Xiao Ruyan and Ren Dong cultivate in closed-seclusion anymore. He was letting them come out and enrich their experiences.
This place was the paradise for alchemists. The atmosphere of alchemy skills was very thick and in full bloom.
On the streets, apart from all kinds of spirit medicine stalls, there were even all sorts of alchemy battle arenas.
As long as one paid a fixed fee, they could go up the stage and compare notes on pill refinement techniques.
Ye Yuan nodded when he heard that and said, “Although the Immemorial Medicine Garden normally doesn’t open, the heaven and earth spiritual qi around Cloudmarsh City is much greater compared to other places. Just the outer areas are already sufficient for martial artists to digest.”
One could say that Cloudmarsh City was virtually established in the midst of spirit medicine heaps.
“Master, there are so many people competing in alchemy here! Have you come here to compete in alchemy before?” Xiao Ruyan suddenly asked curiously.
Ye Yuan said smilingly, “Of course. Back then, I was young and rash. When I had just broken through to Alchemy Emperor Realm, I’d once stopped over for as long as several years here. Those few years were also no small harvest to master.”
Xiao Ruyan was also aware of Ye Yuan’s true identity now. Only then did she know just how remarkable of a master she had acknowledged.
That small matter in the Fierce Gale World back then was simply a master running into the midst of a group of apprentices; too much of a child’s play.
As Ye Yuan said, his face also revealed a look of reminiscence, with a manner of somewhat recalling the memorable years of his life.
But Xiao Ruyan’s eyes lit up when she heard and pulled Ye Yuan as she asked curiously, “Master, talk about your battle results, eh! I’m very curious about whether or not you’ve lost before when you just broke through to Alchemy Emperor.”
Ye Yuan suddenly stopped his footsteps and nudged with a mouth as he said smilingly, “Wouldn’t you know if you go over and take a look yourself?”
Xiao Ruyan froze. Following Ye Yuan’s gaze and looking over, she saw three pieces of enormous stone tablets.
“Alchemy Saint Proclamation, Alchemy Venerable Proclamation, Alchemy Emperor Proclamation …”
Xiao Ruyan’s gaze swept past one by one and finally landed on the Alchemy Emperor Proclamation.
All of a sudden, her gaze froze at the top, her eyes revealing a look of disbelief.
Chapter 1029. Beginning |
On the Alchemy Emperor Proclamation, Ji Qingyun’s name was shockingly ranked in the first place!
“First place, Ji Qingyun, a total of 5843 matches, complete victory!”
Xiao Ruyan muttered out this row of words and was shocked until she could not close her mouth.
When Ao Qian they all saw Ji Qingyun’s battle results on the Alchemy Emperor Proclamation, each and every one of them exchanged glances too, endlessly shocked.
Roughly 5843 matches, not a single defeat. This battle result was seriously too insane.
Men all made mistakes, horses all stumbled.
Even someone stronger would come a time when they fumbled.
But Ye Yuan actually had yet to taste defeat in close to 6000 matches of pill battles. How heaven-defying the alchemy skills did one need to have?
Looking at those alchemists ranked below Ye Yuan again, the difference from him was not an ordinary kind of big.
Even the number two on the Alchemy Emperor Proclamation had close to 5000 matches of pill battle, but lost a hundred over matches.
This gap … was too great!
Only Yue Mengli was crystal clear in her heart regarding Ye Yuan’s past life’s achievements and did not have a very shocked expression. But her face did not stint in the slightest with an expression of idolization.
Ao Qian they all were aware that this Cloudmarsh City’s history was long and rich. The custom of pill battles was very flourishing. There were frequently powerful alchemists coming over to spar in alchemy skills.
Moreover, Ye Yuan had merely just entered Alchemy Emperor Realm back then. His strength was not yet as formidable as currently.
At that time, he could already sweep away all alchemists and directly ascend the top-seat of the Alchemy Emperor Proclamation?
Ao Qian, the four of them, looked at Ye Yuan like they were seeing a ghost. Even though they had all witnessed Ye Yuan’s pill refining capabilities, the ranking on that Alchemy Emperor Proclamation still made them somewhat breakdown.
But regarding this matter, Ruan Shuangzhou knew a little about it.
“This was already 300 years ago. It was also precisely because His Excellency competed in alchemy in Cloudmarsh City back then, that he rose to fame and was canonized as a genius alchemist closest to Alchemy God in 100 thousand years! Because milord was ranked first in Cloudmarsh City’s 100 thousand-year history of pill battles! Although I wasn’t present, I heard that back then, the entire Divine Realm’s genius alchemists all flocked in great numbers in order to challenge milord. But all of them failed without any exception! Resulting in that later on, nobody dared to get on the stage to answer the challenge at all. That’s why milord’s consecutive victories’ match count stopped at 5843 matches. Now that 300 years had passed, there is still no one capable of surpassing this achievement,” Ruan Shuangzhou talked to himself, but his gaze was filled with a look of worship.
Ao Qian and the rest all had expressions like they had seen a ghost. They were suppressed in the White Tiger Dungeon for god knows how many years and were completely unaware of the things that happened in the outside world.
They did not expect that such a sensational incident actually happened before in this Cloudmarsh City.
They finally know now, how Ye Yuan’s reputation of ‘closest to Alchemy God’ came about.
Honestly speaking, when they heard this label back then, they more or less still snorted in contempt inwardly.
In the era where Divine Dao dwindled to zero, how many exceedingly talented people did not dare to say that they could reach the Deity Realm either. What right did Ye Yuan have?
But now, they felt that this title did not have any excessive aspects in the slightest.
“Tch, nothing to be excited about! Looking at your expressions, it’s feeling shocked by Ji Qingyun’s achievement, right? It’s merely 5000 over matches undefeated, that’s all!”
Just as everyone was currently immersed in shock, a very scornful voice sounded out.
Xiao Ruyan’s brows knitted and she said unhappily, “Who are you, to be so arrogant? Merely 5000 over matches? If you have the capabilities, you try consecutively winning 5000 over matches too!”
The one speaking was a young man. Behind him even followed a Divine King powerhouse. Presumably, his background was not ordinary too.
That young man was merely Alchemy Venerable Realm, but had a look of unruliness, looking very disdainful toward Ye Yuan’s battle results on the Alchemy Emperor Proclamation.
The young man looked towards Xiao Ruyan. A hint of astonishment flashed across his eyes, but he said with a laugh, “You guys just came to Cloudmarsh City, right? Not recognizing this young master is also excusable! You remember it, this young master is called Gu Yue! Ji Qingyun’s record will be broken by me!”
Gu Yue had an arrogant look with a kind of domineeringness that watched as masts and oars turned to dust while talking and laughing together 1 .
Xiao Ruyan was angered until she laughed because of his haughty manner. Seen before posturing, but never saw before posturing until this manner.
The number one achievement in 100 thousand years, this guy actually dared to brag, saying that he was going to break it. It was fine if he was an Alchemy Emperor, but he was just an Alchemy Venerable.
“Yo, so impressive? I wonder what number your esteemed self is ranked on the Alchemy Emperor Proclamation currently?” Xiao Ruyan said with a laugh.
Gu Yue’s face turned black and said, “You know perfectly well that this young master is only Alchemy Venerable Realm at present, you did it on purpose, right? But I’m not afraid to tell you either, this young master already has over 3400 matches of consecutive victories on the Alchemy Venerable Proclamation. Latest by next year, the Alchemy Venerable Proclamation’s first place will be mine!”
Hearing Gu Yue blow his own trumpet, Xiao Ruyan was startled in her heart. Three thousand four hundred over matches of consecutive wins, this achievement was already rather impressive.
But she still had a look of disdain on her face as she said, “Brag! Keep on bragging! Who doesn’t know how to boast?”
Gu Yue’s expression changed, and he said in a solemn voice, “Who’s bragging to you? Randomly find a person to inquire about it, in this Cloudmarsh City, who doesn’t know me, Gu Yue! That Ji Qingyun, there will come a day where I’ll trample him underfoot!”
Xiao Ruyan became enraged the moment she heard and said angrily, “This young lady doesn’t believe it! Come, come, come, this young lady is going to trample on you under her foot today! Don’t you have over 3400 matches of consecutive victories? I want to see just what kind of standard your more than 3400 matches of consecutive wins is!”
Ren Dong also silently nodded by the side and said very earnestly, “En, en, count me in!”
The moment Gu Yue heard, he laughed.
“Alright, but … not any random nobody can challenge me, Gu Yue! I have a condition, if you agree, this young master will accept your challenge!” Gu Yue smiled with evil-designs as he said.
Xiao Ruyan’s face turned black, and she said, “What condition?”
Gu Yue seized Xiao Ruyan up lecherously and said, “If you lose, you have to become Dao companions with me! How’s that? You got to know, in this Cloudmarsh City, the female martial artists that want to become Dao companions with me, Young Master Gu, line up over several streets!”
Each word that Gu Yue said, Xiao Ruyan’s face became a degree more sullen.
Honestly speaking, she was still really quite nervous.
This guy dared to say that he won over 3400 matches consecutively, it was probably not wild talk. This sort of lies, randomly finding a person could expose it. There was no meaning at all.
To be able to have this standard, he was likely really not too easy to push around.
Seeing Xiao Ruyan hesitate, Gu Yue became even more smug as he said, “Why, scared? Like I said, be a little low-profile if you don’t have much strength. Not everyone is what you’re able to challenge. But if you want to be my, Young Master Gu’s Dao companion, I still welcome it very much, haha …”
Xiao Ruyan was indeed breathtakingly beautiful. The first time Gu Yue laid eyes on her, he found her to be to his liking very much. Just as he said, ordinary women, he really held in contempt.
“Agree with him.” Right then, Ye Yuan’s nonchalant voice sounded out.
Xiao Ruyan jumped in fright. Using watery eyes to look at Ye Yuan, she said, “Master, how can you be like this?”
Ye Yuan said smilingly, “You guys learned from me for so long. If you don’t even have this bit of strength, you can find a piece of tofu to go commit suicide already.”
Chapter 1030. Silent Offering |
“Master? Hahaha, you … are you all mistaken? This brat is at the very most just 30 years old. You guys actually call him your master? Hahaha, what does he have to teach you guys?”
Hearing Xiao Ruyan’s form of address towards Ye Yuan. Gu Yue laughed himself into convulsions.
He laughed for a long time and suddenly discovered that no one went along with him, and could not help feeling very awkward.
And he suddenly noticed that Ye Yuan’s party all used strange eyes to look at him. This involuntarily made him rather angry from embarrassment.
