Alchemy Master

Chapter 1023, In High Demand

Translator: Silavin

Every generation, the Possessor of the True Dragon Martial Soul would become a guardian of the Human Race.

It was precisely because of their deterrence that the Foreign Races dare not act rashly!

Back during the Demon Subduing Great Saint’s era, several Major Races frequently attacked the Human Race, even invading Saints Heavenly City itself, conducting massive slaughters.

When the Demon Subduing Great Saint matured in power, he went to those several Major Races and killed in all directions, slaughtering a hundred cities. In the end, it took the combined efforts of several true experts from those Races to stop the Demon Subduing Great Saint.

It was only after signing numerous treaties would the Demon Subduing Great Saint agree to cease.

That massacre shocked the entire world.

It was precisely that massacre which deterred the numerous Foreign Races!

…

Those who had climbed above the thirtieth step of the Heaven Stairway, after passing the selection, were all brought into the great hall.

There were not many people, fewer than ten.

They were all renowned figures within their respective Sacred Lands, yet standing here, they appeared quite anxious, somewhat unable to relax.

One must understand, this was Saints Heavenly Manor, the Supreme Force of the Human Race!

Just as they were still feeling somewhat anxious, they saw Qin Yichen sitting there, with the three Major Forces’ Elders all doing their utmost to express their goodwill toward him.

This could not help but make their hearts clench violently.

Why was the gap between them so vast!?

They had been inside for quite some time already, yet those three Elders had not even acknowledged them. It was as if they did not exist.

In the eyes of these three Elders, perhaps only Qin Yichen existed?

Their hearts filled with bitter resentment.

However, upon recalling that Qin Yichen possessed the True Dragon Martial Soul and was basically a Descendant of a True Dragon, they had to accept the facts.

They were indeed excellent, invincible within their respective Sacred Lands and among peers of the same realm. But should they encounter Qin Yichen, under that Dragon Prestige, they feared they might not even have the strength to fight.

Only Bo Wanyang’s eyes revealed resentment.

He possessed the Great Sun Divine Body, capable of absorbing the essence of the Sun. He had a Physique rarely seen in every era.

During this occasion, he should have been the one receiving universal attention. Yet at this moment, he had been forgotten. Those three Elders did not even spare him a glance.

What kind of disparity was this!?

Bo Wanyang’s gaze remained fixed on Qin Yichen.

He refused to accept it!

He wanted to defeat Qin Yichen and prove that he was the one who deserved serious attention!

The several Sacred Master Candidates beside Bo Wanyang also sensed the discordant emotions emanating from him. In response, they could only offer bitter smiles.

If this were a normal Heaven Stairway trial, Bo Wanyang would absolutely be in high demand. Who told him his luck was so poor, coincidentally encountering someone who possessed a True Dragon Martial Soul?

Although his Physique was exceptional, compared to the True Dragon Martial Soul, the three Elders had already given a clear answer regarding whom to recruit first.

“Young man, come to my Sword Feather Gate. This old one will certainly teach you everything without reservation, absolutely enabling your strength to advance by leaps and bounds!”

After chatting amiably with Qin Yichen about some innocuous matters, an Elder finally could not restrain himself and extended an olive branch.

“*Hmph!* Old Jian, why don’t you return to properly practice your crafting instead of causing trouble here? If you delay him, can you bear the responsibility?”

The moment this Elder’s words fell, another Elder immediately glared and snorted coldly.

Sword Feather Gate, according to legend, had obtained Ancestor Hongjun’s expertise in weapon crafting, while the other Elder’s affiliated Heavenly Martial Domain had obtained the essence of Martial Soul cultivation. Speaking truthfully, he indeed had grounds to make such statements.

“*Hmph!* Tianming Liu, don’t speak as if you thoroughly understand the True Dragon Martial Soul!”

Upon hearing this, the Sword Feather Gate Elder’s face darkened as he shouted gravely.

The True Dragon Martial Soul was a Divine Grade Martial Soul. Even Heavenly Martial Domain should not be able to offer much assistance regarding its growth.

On the other hand, Lunar Palace’s Su Hua did not compete. Though she too hoped the True Dragon Martial Soul’s possessor could enter their Lunar Palace, she was more afraid of delaying this young man’s bright future.

After all, though their Lunar Palace wielded considerable influence, they primarily focused on Spiritual Energy cultivation. Even those who practiced Martial Arts mainly possessed Cold Attribute Physiques. Despite Lunar Palace’s countless resources, the assistance they could provide to the True Dragon Martial Soul would likely fall far short of Sword Feather Gate and Heavenly Martial Domain.

Watching the two Elders gradually arguing with increasingly flushed faces and thick necks, the dozen or so geniuses in the great hall all wore expressions of embarrassment and awkwardness.

They were all outstanding figures from Major Sacred Lands. Could these Elders not at least grant them some sense of existence?

Letting them enter but not even offering a greeting, just leaving them to the side without any acknowledgment, just what kind of treatment was this?

However, regarding this, the dozen geniuses dared not display the slightest dissatisfaction. After all, this was the Human Race’s strongest Force. Even if they were left here for years, as long as they could enter Saints Heavenly Manor, it would be worthwhile.

Qin Yichen also wore a helpless expression, glancing between the Sword Feather Gate Elder and the Heavenly Martial Domain Elder, momentarily hesitating about whom to choose.

Heavenly Martial Domain possessed quite a thorough understanding of the Martial Soul, but that was limited to Martial Souls below the Divine Grade. His True Dragon Martial Soul obviously did not fall within that category.

While Sword Feather Gate excelled in the Dao of Crafting, within it, there were certainly countless cultivation insights left by their predecessors. Moreover, relying on the Dao of Crafting, Sword Feather Gate absolutely possessed the deepest foundation and most abundant resources!

“Old Sword, Old Tian, aren’t you afraid the Juniors will laugh at you?”

Just as the two Elders argued until their faces turned red, a voice suddenly came from the entrance of the great hall.

“Who?”

“*Siii!* Actually daring to mock these Elders, could this person have a death wish?”

Hearing this voice, everyone’s hearts jumped, their gazes all shooting toward the great hall entrance. There, a white-robed youth stepped inside.

Behind this white-robed youth hung an enormous greatsword. Just from visual observation alone, one could sense this greatsword’s immense weight, yet he carried it on his back as if completely unaffected.

Even more astonishing was this white-robed youth’s exceptionally sharp aura, containing an undisguisable field forged through ultimate slaughter. Even the most outstanding Sacred Master Candidates from various Sacred Lands present in the great hall fell far short of such a level.

Yet, when observing the smile on this white-robed youth’s face, he paradoxically gave people an extremely gentle feeling.

This gentle sensation made people feel as refreshed as a spring breeze, thoroughly comfortable.

“This aura, could he be someone from that place?”

“Someone who can adopt such an attitude toward those two other Major Forces must possess an extraordinary identity!”

Which of the geniuses in the great hall was not perceptive of the world? After merely a single glance, they knew in their hearts that this person was absolutely someone they could not provoke.

Moreover, to forge such an aura meant this youth had definitely emerged from that place!

Only those who frequently operated in that place possessed such a terrifyingly cultivated aura, refining it into ‘Momentum’!
