Chapter 1600: Chapter 1603: Dare to hit me? Directly disintegrate

At this moment, Jiang Chen’s eyes shifted, suppressing his doubts, he smiled lightly and looked at the Great Elder: ”Great Elder, it seems it’s not me causing the trouble, but your elder here wants to hold me accountable? Since he wants to hold me accountable, I can only demand an explanation!”

With a single sentence, Jiang Chen placed all the blame of the whole incident onto Lu Yiqiu!

Lu Yiqiu’s expression grew even darker upon hearing this, a cold gleam flashing in his eyes as he gazed at Jiang Chen.

”Elder Lu, come back!”

The Great Elder shouted sternly.

Lu Yiqiu glared fiercely at Jiang Chen, then turned and jumped back beside several elders.

”Sect Master Lin, Family Heads, thank you for moderating justice, please return!” Jiang Chen cupped his hands towards Lin Jiuxiao and Tang Jiawei.

Swish, swish, swish!

Lin Jiuxiao and others glanced at Jiang Chen, turned, and leapt back to their positions, Yan Hu also landed beside Ying Zi and the others with a notebook.

”Everyone, there were some interruptions earlier, I hope you don’t mind. Now, let me explain the rules of the Pill Conference!”

Fu Tianbo glanced at Jiang Chen, directly bypassing the recent incident and spoke loudly: ”The first round of the Pill Conference is an advanced ten round, where all participating Pill Masters collectively refine elixir, with the necessary medicinal materials to be brought by themselves.”

”The elixir produced will be jointly evaluated by our Elixir Valley’s seven Great Elders, with the top ten entering the second round.”

”On site, there are a hundred Pill Furnaces, with ten types available. You can select at will, but if there is an eleventh person interested in a furnace, then a contest is required among yourselves.

”During the contest, Inner Qi is prohibited, only Soul Power competition is allowed! Does anyone have any objections?”

Fu Tianbo loudly inquired to everyone as he finished.

”No objections!”

”No objections!”

The crowd responded loudly in agreement, as most people attending the Elixir Valley Pill Conference were not newcomers, and even the first-time attendees had learned the rules through other sources.

Fu Tianbo glanced at Jiang Chen and others who wished to compete, and said loudly: ”Since the number of participants is not over a hundred, there’s no need for the refining to be done in batches. I declare, the first round of the Pill Conference, begins!”

Swish, swish, swish!

As soon as Fu Tianbo’s words fell, nearly a hundred Pill Masters immediately leapt towards the Pill Furnaces.

As the crowd moved, Jiang Chen also acted.

In a flash, Jiang Chen appeared before a pill furnace the size of a head in the middle of the first row, reaching out and taking hold of the furnace.

Various major factions were taken aback for a moment, not expecting Jiang Chen to still participate in the big competition, causing all to furrow their brows, feeling quite puzzled!

Initially, many were not surprised by Jiang Chen wanting to participate in the big competition, but following the earlier disruption, even a fool could see the people of Elixir Valley were displeased with him, yet he still wished to participate, leaving everyone baffled!

”Boy, put that Pill Furnace down!”

A voice echoed loudly, as a long-bearded elder leapt beside Jiang Chen, glaring at him coldly.

”It’s the Purple Flame Pill King!”

”It’s the Purple Flame Pill King Chen Boting, who refined the Four Halo Pill Mirage, Purple Flame Broken Elixir!”

”Yes, it’s him. It’s said his soul strength has been tempered to the extent of forming, having successfully gathered a soul embryo within his soul origin!”

”That boy is done for, being targeted by him, he won’t keep his Pill Furnace!”

The elder’s appearance triggered exclamations among various major factions around.

The soul of a Martial Artist is fragile, only after reaching the Venerable Realm can it slowly condense soul power to manifest at the soul origin.

And a soul embryo refers to the gathered soul power forming a phantom image within the soul origin. To reach this level, it’s generally impossible for an ordinary Venerable to accomplish without decades of accumulation.

Soul Power is the key to refining elixirs, thus, the stronger one’s soul strength, the easier it is to become a top Pill Master!

Chen Boting is highly regarded in the Pill Master circle, as he’s the only person outside of Elixir Valley known to be able to refine the Four Halo Pill Mirage, Purple Flame Broken Elixir.

The halo of an elixir determines its grade, and the grade quality of an elixir is linked to the Pill Master’s soul power. Some can refine elixirs of a higher level than the Purple Flame Broken Elixir but cannot create a Four Halo Mirage of it.

This is because their refining skill is sufficient, but their soul strength falls short!

Therefore, in terms of reputation, age, and refining skill, Chen Boting was seen to far surpass Jiang Chen by all present.

However, Jiang Chen merely glanced at Chen Boting, ignoring him, and began studying the Pill Furnace in his hand.

Chen Boting’s lips curved into a cold smile, his eyes chilling.

Offend Elixir Valley yet still wish to compete in the Pill Conference? You think you can earn rewards from the Conference? Truly unaware of your limitations, thinking forging alliances with Chixiao Sect and the Five Great Families will render Elixir Valley powerless against you?

Boy, you underestimate Elixir Valley!

However, I should thank you, once you fail, I’m sure the few from Elixir Valley will remember me. Then, I might have a chance to practice at Elixir Valley!

Buzz!

An enigmatic ripple spread out, Chen Boting emitted a soul power from within, directly aiming at Jiang Chen’s head!

”Boy, for daring to offend Elixir Valley, today I’ll make you a fool!” Chen Boting sneered coldly with a low voice.

As Chen Boting spoke out, Lu Yiqiu was already fixated on Jiang Chen’s direction, his lips curling into a malicious smile.

The destruction of those affiliated sects had caused his reputation in Elixir Valley to plummet instantly, even drawing ridicule from other elders, causing him to resent Jiang Chen to the core.

Now witnessing Chen Boting taking action against Jiang Chen, his heart was filled with anticipation.

He had heard slightly of Chen Boting’s soul strength, though it was somewhat lesser than his own, it was certainly more than enough to handle a twenty-year-old youth!

A cold gleam flashed in Jiang Chen’s eyes, a strange smile tugging at his lips.

Buzz!

Whoosh!

Soul power emanated, a whistling sound echoed, faintly revealing an arrow-shaped stream of qi in the air, directly piercing towards Chen Boting’s forehead.

Bang!

A burst of explosive sound rang between Jiang Chen and Chen Boting, a chaotic soul power scattered.

Chen Boting’s face suddenly paled, eyes showing a hint of shock, and he couldn’t help but exclaim: ”You...”

Slash!

The sound of a sharp blade piercing flesh was heard, Jiang Chen’s soul power-coalesced Soul Arrow directly pierced into Chen Boting’s forehead.

”Ah!”

A miserable cry echoed, Chen Boting’s face turned ghastly pale.

Thud!

A muffled sound followed, Chen Boting collapsed straightly to the ground, blood tears flowing from his tightly shut eyes, fainting away.

Swish!

Lu Yiqiu’s figure immediately appeared beside Chen Boting, reaching out to inspect his condition, turning to glare angrily at Jiang Chen: ”Jiang Chen, you dare to assault secretly?”

”What happened to Chen Boting?”

”Bleeding from eyes, soul power scattering, it’s the symptom of a shattered soul embryo!”

”What? That clash of soul power just now, Jiang Chen destroyed Chen Boting’s soul embryo?!”

”Impossible! Jiang Chen surely employed some despicable method, otherwise how could he destroy Chen Boting’s soul embryo, he’s barely that old!”

Exclamations of disbelief erupted among the various major factions.
