Chapter 224 - 223 Pill Immortal Tower_i



The tiger woven from Purple Bamboo had come to life!

And the aura emitted by the Wooden Tiger was incredibly powerful, comparable to that of a Profound Immortal!

Facing such an astonishing scene, Billion seized the opportunity in an instant and did not hesitate to ask to become a disciple!

Li Cheng shifted his gaze from the joyously soaring Wooden Tiger in the sky and looked at Billion, “Are you sure?”

At this moment, all members of the Wordless Sect had already appeared, each one staring at the Wooden Tiger with amazement and then rushing towards Purple Bamboo Peak.

Seeing Billion kneeling on the ground, expressing his wish to become a disciple, the oncoming crowd frowned.

Billion was a disciple of the Wordless Sect; becoming a disciple of an outsider would damage the reputation of the Wordless Sect.

“This is Li Cheng, a friend in the Alchemy Dao, our newly invited Guest Elder!” Bai Xian’s voice sounded.

“Greetings to Ancestor Master!” The members of the Wordless Sect saluted in unison.

Bai Xian walked over through the air, smiling, “I didn’t expect that Brother Li’s Artifact Refining Technique had reached such a pinnacle, that even casually applied to bamboo crafts, it could produce such astonishing creations.”

Without waiting for Li Cheng’s response, Bai Xian looked at Billion, “Billion, do you see? This is the principle of ‘one breakthrough leads to a hundred breakthroughs.’ Brother Li is proficient in Artifact Refining, the same techniques when applied to bamboo craft yield similarly extraordinary results.”

Bai Xian’s words shifted, “But with your current abilities, you cannot achieve ‘one breakthrough leads to a hundred breakthroughs.’ You can become a disciple of Guest Li to learn Artifact Refining Techniques, and in the future, you will naturally gain insights in related fields.”

This statement gave Li Cheng plenty of face but also contained another layer of meaning, suggesting Billion should carefully consider it, because what Guest Li could teach was Artifact Refining Technique.

Li Cheng heard the subtext in Bai Xian’s words, his expression calm, showing no excess emotion; after all, Billion belonged to the Wordless Sect, and it would indeed require the Sect’s consent for him to take a disciple.

Billion also understood Bai Xian’s meaning, but without hesitation, bowed deeply and said, “I wish to become a disciple!”

“Let’s discuss this matter after the Alchemy Dao Assembly; right now, we must rush to the Lord City in the Divine Palace Region to participate in the Alchemy Dao Assembly. There is still some time, use it to think things over,” Bai Xian said.

Billion nodded, albeit helplessly, the longing in his eyes unabated.

Li Cheng knew that taking a disciple would not delay the Alchemy Dao Assembly, but Bai Xian did not wish for Billion to become a disciple, after all.

And indeed, why would someone entrust their brother to him without truly understanding him?

He, himself, was a powerhouse of the Immortal King realm, an elite even among the pinnacles of the Immortal World.

So if his brother were to take an Immortal Monarch as a master, it would be better for him to teach his brother personally.

“Brother Li, it’s about time we set off, shall we?” Bai Xian said with a smile.

Li Cheng nodded, eyeing the approaching flying warship suspiciously, “Aren’t we directly using the Immortal Spirit Step to get there? Taking the flying warship seems too time-consuming, doesn’t it?”

Bai Xian chuckled, “Everyone attending the Alchemy Dao Assembly is a figure of some repute, we need to have a bit of presence. If we simply fly there, our entrance would lack grandeur.”

Li Cheng put on a smiling face, but internally he felt utterly speechless. A flying warship, even if it was of the Immortal Artifact level, didn’t have much grandeur!

Wouldn’t a Space-Breaking Shuttle have been more appropriate?

Clearly, the Wordless Sect didn’t have a Space-Breaking Shuttle.

With no choice, Li Cheng boarded the flying warship along with everyone else and departed.

“This Immortal Artifact-level flying warship isn’t slow; it will take us about four days to reach Lord City, just in time for the Alchemy Dao Assembly,” Bai Xian explained.

Li Cheng nodded slightly, hoping only that the Alchemy Dao Assembly would start and end sooner.

Upon arriving safely at Lord City after four days as expected, Bai Xian, well- acquainted with Lord City, led the group directly to the Pill League.

“Brother Li, to participate in the Alchemy Dao Assembly, a simple test is required at the Pill Immortal Tower of the Pill League. You must obtain the Tower’s recognition to qualify for the Assembly,” Bai Xian said, pointing at the towering Immortal Tower ahead.

Li Cheng gave Bai Xian a look, seeing that his expression was calm, but his eyes could hardly conceal his concern.

Bai Xian was indeed worried because the Wordless Sect had only invited Li Cheng. If Li Cheng failed even the preliminary test, the Wordless Sect would be without hope.

Amidst Bai Xian’s worries, the group soon arrived at the tower’s base, registered the sect’s information, and watched as Li Cheng entered the Pill Immortal Tower.

Inside the Pill Immortal Tower, everything was shrouded in white mist, which parted on its own as Li Cheng walked forward, forming a path that led to an unknown destination.

As he followed the path, Li Cheng noticed that from time to time, the phantom of a Spirit Pill or Immortal Pill would appear on either side of the passageway, but the quality of these pills was so ordinary that they couldn’t pique Li Cheng’s interest.

The further he went, the higher the quality of the pills became, and in no time, he had reached the King Grade.

But Li Cheng remained calm, unaffected by the sight of those King Grade Spirit Pills and Immortal Pills.

“Ancestor Master Bai, I’ve heard that each test in the Pill Immortal Tower is different. I wonder what it will be this time, and whether Guest Li will be able to pass,” the Master of the Wordless Sect said.

No sooner had the words left his mouth than Li Cheng suddenly reappeared before the Pill Immortal Tower—he had come out!

Everyone was taken aback; wasn’t this too fast?

They had inquired before: typically, one would take at least an hour to come out, but how long had Li Cheng taken?

“Could it be a failure?” the Master of the Wordless Sect furrowed his brow and said helplessly.

Bai Xian also sighed inwardly; he had been duped! Without even the qualification to attend the Alchemy Dao conference, how could he dream of seizing one of the top hundred spots, let alone the first place?

Alas!

Such a disappointment!

Whoosh!

Just then, a Talisman Seal flew out from the Pill Immortal Tower and hovered in front of Li Cheng, as if waiting for him to grab it.

The Talisman Seal was purple all over, mysterious and regal.

“Ancestor Master Bai, what is that?” The crowd, noticing the purple Talisman Seal, turned their gaze to Bai Xian in unison, confident he would know.

However, they found Bai Xian standing there with a stupefied expression, as surprise quickly spread over his face.

“Look, a purple talisman!” Far away, an exclamation arose.

At this remark, countless people quickly gathered around, each one extremely shocked.

Li Cheng glanced at the purple talisman and then at the increasing number of people surrounding him, somewhat puzzled; this purple talisman seemed to be a big deal.

Unfortunately, he knew too little about the Pill League to understand what the purple Talisman Seal represented.

“Daoist Li, you must collect it quickly!” Bai Xian’s voice rang out.

Li Cheng subtly raised an eyebrow, Bai Xian being an Immortal King, had always addressed him as ‘you,’ but now, he had switched to the respectful ‘you’ for the first time.

Indeed, this purple Talisman Seal was no ordinary object!

“What’s this I hear about a purple talisman appearing?”

“Make way, I am the Hierarch of the Pill League; you are blocking my path!”

The exclamations spread, and within a few breaths, the area around the Pill Immortal Tower was overcrowded; then, a powerful force pushed forth, creating a clear path toward Li Cheng.

“The Alliance Hierarch of the Pill League is stirred as well?” Shock painted Bai Xian’s face even more intensely, which soon turned into overwhelming joy.

There was a no-fly formation within the Pill League, so even he, the Hierarch, had to clear a path like this.

The Hierarch strode through the opening, arriving in front of Li Cheng, and after giving him a glance, he turned his attention to the purple talisman, his eyes widening more and more!
