Nine Dragons Saint Ancestor

”This boy, he really can’t stay out of trouble anywhere he goes!”

In the northern seats, Qian Sanyuan had a hint of a smile in his eyes, and he spoke with a playful reprimand. However, he paid no mind to the fact that Song Qiuchan had lost an arm.

Firstly, with the might of Lianyun Mountain, there’s no need to care about the grievances of a lone Poison Vein Master. At the very least, Song Qiuchan, who has already lost an arm, shouldn’t pose a significant threat to Lianyun Mountain.

Secondly, the competition in the Poison Meridian Path is originally extremely perilous. The Nine Realms Poison Tower is a life-or-death situation. Compared to those Heavenly Rank Low Level Stage Meridian Refiners who lost their lives, Song Qiuchan only losing an arm is considered extremely fortunate.

Moreover, given Qian Sanyuan’s understanding of Yun Xiao, even if that boy is prone to trouble, he would never provoke others actively. It must have been Song Qiuchan who did something to anger Yun Xiao, resulting in his loss of an arm.

This incident also gave Qian Sanyuan a new understanding of Yun Xiao’s strength; this guy’s combat power is indeed far from simple as it appears.

Qian Sanyuan himself has just barely broken through to the Floating Life Realm Late Stage. His power might not necessarily surpass Song Qiuchan’s, and since the latter ended up so miserable at Yun Xiao’s hands, he believes Yun Xiao’s strength is probably above his own.

Thinking back to the first time he saw Yun Xiao on the Hidden Dragon Continent, Qian Sanyuan was both excited and emotional. He mused to himself that this young man, who was already causing waves on the Hidden Dragon Continent, achieved so much on the Tenglong Continent in just three or four years.

Fortunately, with Yun Xiao now affiliated with the Meridian Refining Master Association, his brilliance also brings honor to Lianyun Mountain. Naturally, compared to outsiders, Qian Sanyuan and a few others feel no envy at all.

Meanwhile, Ouyang Wuantong and Li Yunfan, who overheard Qian Sanyuan’s words, though spoken with a hint of jest, were actually full of joy. They couldn’t help but purse their lips, feeling slightly envious.

Because compared to Yun Xiao, neither the top genius Nie Xiaosheng of the Shenxiao Sect nor those young talents of Ling Kong Island are comparable in the slightest.

Even without mentioning Yun Xiao, neither Liu Hanyi nor Mo Qing can be rivaled by any young genius on the Tenglong Continent. They are truly exceptional prodigies.

Both of them were thinking about whether they should let the geniuses of their own sects stay at Lianyun Mountain for a while after the Meridian Refining Conference ends. After all, the young people around Yun Xiao all possessed astonishing skills.

”Ladies and gentlemen!”

After Qian Sanyuan sighed, he finally stood up, and the two words from his mouth prompted the originally lively discussion in and around the square to slowly quiet down, focusing their attention on the Vice Chairman hosting the conference.

”To those who perished in the Nine Realms Poison Tower, I express my condolences. Here, I also wish to congratulate all of you who have advanced to the second round. The strongest among the medical and poison paths on the Tenglong Continent will emerge from among you!”

Qian Sanyuan spoke eloquently. For those deceased Poison Vein Masters, he only mentioned them lightly and then guided the topic towards the final battle of the Meridian Refining Conference, stirring excitement among many people.

On this continent, strength is ultimately respected. Besides the family and friends of those deceased Poison Vein Masters, no one else cares about them. People only focus on those few most dazzling figures.

”The final competition rules for the Medical Vein are extremely simple. That is to refine Elixirs. Whoever’s Elixir attracts the most Pill Thunder will be the ultimate champion!”

Qian Sanyuan spoke again, causing many people to nod in agreement, thinking that for a Medical Pulse Master, treating patients and refining Elixirs and medicine are indispensable, and the path of alchemy is considered a signature skill of a Medical Pulse Master.

As for the Pill Thunder mentioned by Qian Sanyuan, it has a special judging criterion. For such a straightforward rule, people naturally had little objection.

Generally speaking, refining a Heavenly Rank level Elixir can attract Pill Thunder, but even the number of Pill Thunders attracted by Heavenly Rank Low Level Pills is not exactly the same.

For example, the Five Elements Pu Pill that Yun Xiao helped Qian Sanyuan refine on the Hidden Dragon Continent attracted only one Pill Thunder, meaning that even among Heavenly Rank Low Level Pills, the Five Elements Pu Pill is only at the bottom tier.

According to some meridian refiners, an Elixir reaching the pinnacle of the Heavenly Rank Low Level can attract Six Paths Pill Thunder, just one step away from the Seventh Tribulation Pill Thunder attracted by a Heavenly Rank Intermediate Pill.

In other words, the number of Pill Thunders attracted by Heavenly Rank Low Level Pills ranges from one to six. Whoever attracts the most Pill Thunders will be the champion of the Medical Vein in this Meridian Refining Conference.

”As for the final competition rule for the Poison Vein Path, it is also very simple. The five of you will all enter a designated area and unleash your poisons. The one who persists until the end will be the champion of the Poison Vein Path.”

After Qian Sanyuan finished speaking, Qingmu Wu also stood up. In contrast to the Medical Vein, his understanding of the Poison Vein Path undoubtedly surpasses Qian Sanyuan’s, so it was naturally up to him to announce the rules for the final competition of the Poison Vein Path.

”A competition of who can last the longest again!”

Upon hearing this, many spectators among the Meridian Refining Masters felt a sense of familiarity, mused that wasn’t it earlier in the Nine Realms Poison Tower about who could endure the longest?

”Although it’s also about endurance, the method is vastly different!”

Nie Xiaosheng seemed to think further and explained, ”In the Nine Realms Poison Tower, it’s more about testing a Poison Vein Master’s resistance to poison. But this final round isn’t just about poison resistance, it’s also about the ability to administer poison!”

This genius from the Shenxiao Sect explained, and many people realized it, thinking that compared to those highly poisonous substances or highly poisonous Vein Demons inside the Nine Realms Poison Tower, the competitors who are also Poison Vein Masters might actually be the most dangerous?

Having robust poison resistance is certainly impressive, but if your opponent’s poisoning skills are more formidable, administering a poison that you can’t resist or neutralize, the outcome will be completely different.

Perhaps this second round truly tests the skill level of a Poison Vein Master’s Poison Meridian Skill, after all, the deterrent force of Poison Vein Masters roaming the continent has always been their unrivaled poisoning skills.

”Vice Chairman Qian, Dean Qing, Yun Xiao has entered the final round of both the Medical Vein and Poison Meridian paths. This round of competition can’t happen simultaneously, can it?”

After Qingmu Wu’s words fell, the acclaimed Qihuang Saint, Xiao Shijing, suddenly spoke, and upon hearing his words, everyone finally realized a fact.

This fact is that Yun Xiao, the unconventional Yun Xiao, has undoubtedly posed a challenge to this Meridian Refining Conference, as historically, never has any Meridian Refining Master reached the final round in two different paths.

In the first round, Yun Xiao used his formidable Medical Pulse Technique to complete his upgrade in the Medical Vein Path within thirty minutes. But in this final round, there is no possibility of taking shortcuts.

After all, Alchemy and Medicine Refining and treating illnesses are entirely different. The latter might allow you to heal a person within a very short time using some formidable techniques, which is not an impossible task.

But as for Alchemy, without a day or two, it’s absolutely impossible to achieve, and the higher the rank of the pill, the longer it takes. In this aspect, many Meridian Refining Masters believe Yun Xiao will be no exception.

”Mr. Xiao mentioned this issue, which we’ve discussed before and ultimately decided unanimously that Yun Xiao will first participate in the Alchemy competition of the Medical Vein Path, and then the Poison Meridian competition!”

Upon hearing Xiao Shijing’s words, Qian Sanyuan didn’t hesitate much. It seemed that he had indeed considered this issue in advance. With these words, many people started pondering.

”No way! Are we all supposed to be delayed because of Yun Xiao?”

Just after Qian Sanyuan’s voice fell, a cold voice directly came through, and when everyone turned to look, they saw the speaker was the Ghostly Poisonous Concubine Song Qiuchan, whose arm had been broken by Yun Xiao.

Seeing it was Song Qiuchan’s words, the crowd instantly had an epiphany. With a broken arm grievance, how would Song Qiuchan let Yun Xiao resolve this issue so easily?

But what people didn’t know is that Song Qiuchan’s opposition at this moment is not solely because Yun Xiao broke her arm, but more so due to her deep-seated fear of Yun Xiao.

Never mind that Song Qiuchan spoke with great conviction just now, but her heart has already filled with dread towards Yun Xiao after that battle in the Nine Realms Poison Tower.

This is not only concerning Meridian Qi combat power but the Poison Meridian Path as well. Song Qiuchan faintly feels that if she truly competes with Yun Xiao in poisoning skills, her end might not be good.

Therefore, Song Qiuchan didn’t think much, instinctively opposed. After her words fell, everyone’s gaze first circled around her and then returned to Qian Sanyuan.

After all, Song Qiuchan is a contestant in the final round of the Poison Meridian Path. Now that she has raised an objection, Qian Sanyuan surely wouldn’t ignore it, as this would undeniably compromise the fairness and justice of Lianyun Mountain.

”Vice Chairman Qian, Yun Xiao comes from your Lianyun Mountain, isn’t your bias inappropriate?”

Song Qiuchan usually doesn’t like to say much. It’s unknown whether Yun Xiao stimulated her at this moment; she spoke incessantly. This second remark is accusing Lianyun Mountain of bias in the fairness of the Meridian Refining Conference.

The words have come to this point, if Lianyun Mountain really disregarded Song Qiuchan’s argument and insisted on enforcing that rule, no matter if Yun Xiao or other Lianyun Mountain geniuses won the championship, it would still receive criticism from many people.

Everyone’s eyes were fixed on Qian Sanyuan, wanting to know how this Vice Chairman of Lianyun Mountain would resolve the matter.

This relates to the reputation of the Meridian Refining Master Association, and any oversight isn’t allowed.
