Tyrant Sky Martial Soul

Chapter 1184: Chapter 1184 Black Wind Building

”Hehe, interesting, I definitely have to go.”

Ling Xiao enjoys lively events, and this Alchemy Convention involves his specialty, maybe he can even snag some fun stuff there.

”It’s great that you want to go. This Crime City’s Alchemy Convention is a grand event held every two years in Crime City. Powerhouses like the Black Crow Empire, Divine Phoenix Empire, Seven Martial Islands, and Five Immortal Islands will send representatives to participate. It would be a pity to miss it.”

Moon Lady said with a smile, ”For an alchemist, interacting with peers is very important. If you can achieve some results at this convention, surely more and more people wary of you in the future, it’s a pity not to leverage this advantage...”

”Master, I’ve also heard that the Alchemy Convention in Crime City will attract the attention of many forces. If you perform exceptionally, these forces will notice you and invite you as honored guests, and the treatment is so good that it will drive countless people mad.”

Leng Mei added a remark.

Although she is young, she has actually been to many more places than Ling Xiao.

In Leng Mei’s hazy memories, it seems she had been to Crime City before, but she was too young at that time and could hardly remember clearly.

”Collaborating with some major powers is fine, but completely joining them is out of the question. After all, I am the Heavenly Emperor of the Heavenly Dynasty. If I became someone else’s dedicated alchemist, wouldn’t that mean no freedom at all?”

Ling Xiao shook his head.

”You are wrong about this. You know about Marvellous Hand Heavenly Lord Sun Shang, don’t you? Although we killed him, he had a glorious past.”

Leng Mei said, ”Sun Shang was an absolute dark horse in the thirty-first Alchemy Convention of Crime City!

Before participating in this Alchemy Convention, he was obscure and impoverished.

However, after succeeding in achieving results at the Alchemy Convention, he was quickly noticed by major forces. He eventually chose to become an Imperial Physician for the Sacred Dynasty, even though at that time, Sun Shang was just a low-level Yellow Grade alchemist.

His cultivation level was even worse, being only at the First Cave Heaven level.

However, with the backing of the Sacred Dynasty and receiving strong support, not only did his alchemist rank consistently rise, becoming one of the strongest alchemists in both Heavenly Dragon Continent and Divine Phoenix Continent.

His cultivation level also skyrocketed, becoming a powerful Cave Heaven realm master.

Before we killed him, he truly was a person who could Call the Wind and Summon the Rain.

If it weren’t for the support of the Sacred Dynasty, he could not have achieved such terrifying accomplishments on his own.”

”So Sun Shang actually had such a history.”

Ling Xiao had always thought that Sun Shang was born on the Heavenly Dragon Continent, grew up there, and had never left.

Moon Lady said casually at this time: ”That’s right, whether it’s cultivation or alchemy, both require a great deal of money.

Even those with great talent in Alchemy, if they lack a continuous supply of medicinal materials, they will still find it hard to achieve results.

Many genius martial artists are delayed when young, reach a certain age and lose their innate advantage, becoming mediocre.

An alchemist needs medicinal ingredients for refining pills and potions. If they waste all their time on that, how can they have time to enhance their abilities?

If there’s a deep-pocketed backer providing materials, that changes everything. They can focus solely on alchemy, without other worries.

The Alchemy Convention is actually about finding those deep-pocketed backers; many alchemists see it this way.”

”Hehe, Sister Moon, what you said doesn’t have much to do with me.”

Ling Xiao possesses the Mountain and River Martial Soul; what others need tens of thousands of the same medicinal ingredients to accomplish, he only needs one batch.

Now at only seventeen years old, he has only really been studying alchemy for less than two years, yet his current achievements are no less than those of Sun Shang before his death.

So for him, unless it is for alchemy, a large amount of medicinal ingredients is not very meaningful.

Moreover, he is now the Heavenly Emperor of the Heavenly Dynasty, backed by such a vast empire, and with the help of Princess Emma Ya Cloud from the Tianlong Trade Company, it is not impossible for him to acquire the medicinal herbs.

Speaking of medicinal herbs, he suddenly remembered something.

This time coming to Crime City, he had another purpose, which was to acquire as many medicinal herbs as possible and then manufacture enough pills to enhance the overall strength of the Dark Stinger and the Divine Capital Guard Army.

In comparison to the Imperial Jade Seal, this is also very important.

Although one cannot rely on pills, it is absolutely unacceptable not to use them at all.

”We’ve arrived at Black Wind Building!”

The three of them were chatting, and before they knew it, they had arrived in front of the Black Wind Building.

Looking at the towering, cloud-piercing Black Wind Building that seemed to have no visible end, Ling Xiao couldn’t help but show a look of astonishment.

This Black Wind Building is no ordinary place.

The forces behind the Black Wind Building are probably even more extraordinary.

”Let’s go in and see what makes this auction house, known as the strongest on the Divine Phoenix Continent, so special.”

Ling Xiao had an intuition, always feeling that his visit to Crime City this time would surely lead him to find the Imperial Jade Seal.

This feeling became even stronger the moment they stepped into the Black Wind Building.

The trio walked on a pavement made of bluestone, which was smooth and clean, without a speck of debris in sight.

Under the sharp, hawk-like gaze of the Black Wind Building guards, Ling Xiao and his companions stepped inside.

Compared to the bustling atmosphere of Black Street, it was much quieter inside the Black Wind Building.

Even though there were many people, everyone maintained quietness and dared not speak loudly.

The transition from Black Street to Black Wind Building was merely a door apart, yet it felt as if it were heaven and earth, with a truly significant difference.

Inside the Black Wind Building, there was no chilling wind, instead, it was very warm.

Ling Xiao found his eyes barely under his control upon seeing the layout inside.

All of the counters in the entire hall were uniformly made of crystal and gold, not only beautiful but also very high-class.

There were also guards in the Black Wind Building, but they were in plain clothes and did not wear special uniforms.

However, through their expressions and eyes, Ling Xiao could tell that these individuals were definitely people from the Black Wind Building.

The moment Ling Xiao and his companions stepped into the Black Wind Building, at least a hundred eyes swept their way momentarily.

After a moment, those uncomfortable, tension-inducing sharp gazes gradually moved away.

”Who do you think is the mysterious boss behind Black Wind Building? I don’t believe it’s the Black Python Clan, do they have such a grand display?”

Ling Xiao, stroking his chin, asked in puzzlement.

”The head of the Black Python Clan is recognized by Changle Immortal Island as the top underworld boss; with the support of Changle Immortal Island, forces such as the Blackraven Empire, Phoenix God Empire, and Blue Wave Island wouldn’t dare to provoke them lightly, Master you shouldn’t underestimate him,” Leng Mei cautioned.

In order to become Ling Xiao’s most powerful assistant, not just a helper, Leng Mei had put in a lot of effort, checking a large amount of relevant information about Crime City during her free time from cultivation.

It was not a coincidence that she could mention these things this time.
