Alchemy Sovereign Against the Heaven
Chapter 209 - 200 All Parties Gather

Chapter 209: Chapter 200 All Parties Gather

Around the square, a massive grandstand had been erected, capable of accommodating nearly a hundred thousand people.

At this moment, the Pill Sect’s Inheritance Disciples of the third grade and above all stood on the open ground beneath the grandstand. In the center of the open area, a high platform had been set up for the grand competition.

On the grandstand, the chatter never ceased. In addition to the younger generation of various powers, there were also figures from medium and small forces like Elders and Sect Masters, each one exuding a formidable aura, truly heroes of the Ten Directions Domain.

"Haha, I didn’t expect Sect Master Chen to come too. It’s been two years since we last met, hasn’t it?"

"Of course, I had to come. The Pill Sect is one of the three giants of the Ten Directions Domain, also the foremost Alchemy Dao Great Sect, monopolizing the pill supply for all forces in the Ten Directions Domain. How could I not come to join in on such an event?"

"Indeed, it’s been nearly ten years since the last alchemy competition of the Pill Sect. It seems this competition has quite a number of participants. Are all those standing under the grandstand Inheritance Disciples?"

"They should all be, I suppose. I remember ten years ago, the Pill Sect had nearly a thousand Inheritance Disciples. Now, after ten years, it has doubled. The Pill Sect’s growth is truly more impressive with each passing day..."

While the various figures on the grandstand chatted, their gazes drifted downward, each one unable to help but sigh with emotion.

"The young man at the front of the crowd, that should be Luo Yuntian, right?"

"It indeed is him. He was taken as a registered disciple by the Alchemy King Lin Xuantian, an honor not just anyone can receive."

"It seems Luo Yuntian’s cultivation has progressed considerably. I heard he’s now at the Seventh Level of the Returning Ruins Realm, nearing the Primordial Spirit stage!"

"I wonder what level his Alchemy Dao skill has reached?"

"I heard it reached the fifth grade several years ago. Now, perhaps he’s not far from the sixth grade!"

"Sikong Yi from the Sword Sect, Xu Menglan from Xuannv Sect, Qin Yue from the Pill Sect, and now, it seems Luo Yuntian will be the fourth genius among the younger generation of the Ten Directions Domain to validate the Primordial Spirit Path after those three!"

"Luo Yuntian has long been renowned in the Ten Directions Domain, but recently, the Pill Sect also produced someone else. You must have heard about him, right?"

"Are you talking about Mo Wangchen? I heard he’s only a third-grade disciple of the Pill Sect, yet he managed to kill Fang Ruyuan. It seems his strength isn’t weak, but the Sword Sect has been quiet for some time. I wonder if they’ll do something today..."

"The people from Xuannv Sect did come, but it seems the Sword Sect hasn’t appeared?"

...

Buzz!

Just as everyone present was engaged in discussions, a strong wave of energy suddenly emanated from deep within the Pill Sect. In the next moment, a dark figure flashed, and in the blink of an eye, it arrived above the square.

Everyone looked up and discovered that the person who came was none other than the Pill Sect Master, Alchemy King Lin Xuantian!

Accompanying Lin Xuantian was his only True Disciple, the Pill Sect Saintess, Qin Yue!

"Greetings to the Sect Master!"

"Greetings to the Saintess!"

On the grandstand, including all the Inheritance Disciples on the open ground, everyone stood up respectfully upon seeing Lin Xuantian and Qin Yue appear.

Their voices chorused, echoing far and wide, "We greet the Alchemy King, esteemed predecessor!"

Following the Pill Sect disciples, those from various forces who had come to observe all stood up as well, faces full of admiration as they shouted.

Alchemy King Lin Xuantian, a seventh-grade Alchemy Dao Master, was unmatched in the entire Ten Directions Domain except for the Sword Sect Master and the Xuannv Sect Master. There was no third person!

Lin Xuantian and Qin Yue descended onto the Dao Embryo. He pressed his hands, and immediately the entire venue fell silent. Scanning the surroundings with a smile, Lin Xuantian spoke, "Today marks our Pill Sect disciple alchemy competition. The presence of friends from all sides brings us great honor."

His gaze shifted, finally fixing in a particular direction in the grandstand, "Hehe, I didn’t expect even Great Elder Mo would personally come, which is truly an honor for our Pill Sect."

Following Lin Xuantian’s gaze, everyone saw in that direction a group of women sitting.

These were all from the Xuannv Sect, about a dozen in number, including Huang Ting, who had previously encountered Mo Wangchen in the ruins. Besides her, Xuannv Sect Saintess Xu Menglan was also present.

Sitting next to Xu Menglan was an elderly lady over fifty years old, holding a wooden cane—identified by Lin Xuantian as Great Elder Mo.

This was the Great Elder of the Xuannv Sect, known as Mo Venerable, one of the rare powerful figures in the entire Ten Directions Domain.

"Esteemed Alchemy King, you are too kind. It has been many years since I stepped out of the Sect, and upon hearing that the Pill Sect was hosting an alchemy competition, I came along to join in the excitement."

Mo Venerable stood up and responded very courteously.

Though she was the Great Elder of the Xuannv Sect, compared to someone like Lin Xuantian, who was a true giant, she still lacked a certain level.

"Hehe..."

However, at that moment, a faint sound of laughter suddenly came from the distant horizon. Everyone turned their gaze toward it, where a dark figure was swiftly approaching.

In the blink of an eye, the dark figure grew closer and finally arrived above the square.

It was a giant sword, on which several dozen people, mostly young faces, stood. Only one old man stood at the front.

"People from the Sword Sect!"

"They’ve come after all!"

Everyone was taken aback. After what happened last time, with Mo Wangchen killing Fang Ruyuan, they could easily imagine that the enmity between the Sword Sect and the Pill Sect had long reached the point of being irreconcilable.

"Sword Sect Great Elder Fang Tianzhou!"

"He’s Fang Ruyuan’s grandfather! I didn’t expect him to come personally!"

"Sword Sect Saint Sikong Yi is here as well, and those behind them, though young in appearance, each exudes a formidable aura. They must be the elite disciples of the Sword Sect."

"With the Sword Sect here, it’s feared that today, something is bound to happen..."

On the grandstand, many exchanged glances, feeling the atmosphere slightly tense after the arrival of the Sword Sect people.

"Today is the Pill Sect alchemy competition, such a grand event, and how could the Sword Sect not be present? Esteemed Alchemy King, we juniors have come abruptly, please forgive us."

Fang Tianzhou stood at the forefront of the giant sword, cupping his hands toward Lin Xuantian, smiling as he spoke.

"Daoist Fellow Fang, you’re being too polite. Since you are here, please take a seat." Lin Xuantian appeared casual, smiling lightly as he pointed to an empty spot on the grandstand, which could exactly accommodate several dozen people.

Then, the giant sword slowly descended. When Fang Tianzhou, along with Sikong Yi and others, reached the grandstand, he cast his gaze over the Inheritance Disciples below once more.

He cupped his hands again toward Lin Xuantian, saying, "The Pill Sect has indeed grown well these years. There was also a competition ten years ago, and back then, there were nearly a thousand Inheritance Disciples. I didn’t expect that, after ten years, the number has doubled. Truly remarkable."

"Daoist Fellow Fang, you’re too kind..."

Lin Xuantian smiled, though his brows faintly furrowed because it was obvious that those from the Sword Sect would surely not bring good news.

Yet, this place was, after all, within the Pill Sect. Not to mention Fang Tianzhou, even if the Sword Sect Master came, he probably wouldn’t dare to act recklessly.

"Esteemed Alchemy King, I’ve heard that recently, the Pill Sect produced a young genius, also an Inheritance Disciple, whose cultivation isn’t weak. Even my grandson Fang Ruyuan fell at his hands. I wonder if this person is present today..."

Fang Tianzhou’s eyes swept around once more, his words spreading out calmly.
