The Extreme Alchemist of the Mighty Cauldron
Chapter 1210 - Chapter 1210 Chapter 1209 Pointed Out by Thousands

Chapter 1210: Chapter 1209: Pointed Out by Thousands Chapter 1210: Chapter 1209: Pointed Out by Thousands The Pill Alliance suffered a crushing defeat, the news almost immediately spreading throughout the entire Nine Countries.

Many people from the Nine Countries, upon receiving the news, responded with disbelief. However, as more substantial information arrived, even those who found it difficult to accept had no choice but to believe it.

That day was one marked by exceptional sorrow for everyone in the Nine Countries, even the martial artists who had no understanding of pill refining felt a deep discomfort in their hearts.

In this competition that concerned the dignity of both parties, the people of the Nine Countries had been full of confidence, considering the Seven Seas’ challenging behavior to be nothing but a self-inflicted humiliation.

Everyone believed that the Pill Alliance would definitely win this competition, dealing a heavy blow to the Seven Seas.

But the unthinkable happened–they lost.

Victors become kings, losers considered bandits.

Once defeated, they essentially became nothing.

The dismal failure of the Pill Alliance not only embarrassed them but also caused the entire Nine Countries to lose face, leaving martial artists of the Nine Countries unable to lift their heads in front of the Seven Seas.

“I hate this! Why did we lose to those barbarians of the Seven Seas?”

“Even with Long Zhixin’s involvement, we couldn’t secure a victory. Is the Pill Alliance finished?”

“This time, our Nine Countries have truly lost face.”

“Those pill refiners of the Pill Alliance, always so arrogant, why do they falter at the critical moment?”

“Hmph! Such incompetence from the Pill Alliance, truly a loss of face for our Nine Countries.”

“It’s a pity! If Lord Fang Lin was still here, how could we have ended up in such a devastating situation?”

“Indeed, where did Fang Lin go? If he were here, how could we possibly lose?”

“Stop talking, the Pill Alliance brought this upon themselves by imprisoning Fang Lin.”

“What a waste of talent! It’s nothing short of a crime against heaven!”

“Can we still expect this kind of Pill Alliance to be called mysterious?”

“Pill Alliance, get out of the Nine Countries!”

…

Feelings ran high throughout the Nine Countries, for this defeat was too much to bear, and many harsh words began to surface.

The pill refiners of the Pill Alliance scattered across the Nine Countries had never been as embarrassed as they were today, becoming the target of scorn and receiving much criticism and abuse.

No wonder, if the people from the Taoist Sect’s Pill Pulsar had lost, upon returning to the Seven Seas, they too would face criticism from everyone there.

And this competition saw the Pill Alliance lose on their own turf to the opponent, especially at a time when war between the two lands was on the brink of breaking out. The Pill Alliance’s blunder had undoubtedly dealt a severe blow to the morale of the Nine Countries.

That’s why the people of the Nine Countries were so indignant, directing their anger towards the Pill Alliance.

Within the Pill Alliance itself, gloom and misery abounded. Many of the older generation of pill refiners passed out, spitting blood the moment they learned that the Pill Alliance had lost to the Seven Seas.

Even three or four elderly Pill Refiners, overwhelmed by their emotions, actually passed away on the spot.

As for the younger Pill Refiners, overwhelmed with anger, disappointment, and grief, many immediately chose to leave the Pill Alliance.

Even those Pill Refiners who had deep feelings for the Pill Alliance couldn’t help but feel disappointed. It was a battle fought on home ground, aided by so many talented individuals–it was impossible for them to lose to the Seven Seas.

Yet the Pill Alliance did indeed lose, and the loss was so humiliating that the Pill Refiners within the Alliance naturally felt disappointed.

In Qing Nation, within the Imperial Capital, upon hearing of the Pill Alliance’s defeat, the Qin Emperor remained silent, not saying a word, but the anger on his face was visibly evident to his several trusted subordinates.

In Tang Country, atop the towering, majestic Tang Tower, the Tang Emperor let out a long, drawn-out sigh and waved his hand, signaling for his subordinates to leave.

“Your Majesty, those people from the Seven Seas are still within Flat Sea City, shall we…” a gold-robed elder, with bowed head and subservient gaze, spoke to the Tang Emperor, his tone laced with the intent of killing those from the Seven Seas Taoist Sect.

“Forget it, let the Pill Alliance handle it themselves,” the Tang Emperor said, his tone full of disappointment.

“Yes.” The gold-robed elder complied with a single word, then silently withdrew.

In Yuan Country, atop Skywolf Peak, the Yuan Emperor sat cross-legged, showing little reaction to the news coming from Flat Sea City.

“The Pill Alliance is truly laughable, neglecting such an exceptional talent from taking the stage. Now they have made a grand fool of themselves, hmph!” the Yuan Emperor spoke indifferently, no emotion showing on his face, but his dissatisfaction could still be heard in his tone.

All the various forces were angry and disappointed about the Pill Alliance’s defeat, and there was a clamor of resentment towards the Alliance.

Inside the Ancient Pill Court, many high-ranking members of the Pill Alliance had gathered, yet the atmosphere was extremely oppressive and somber, and each member of the high command wore an indescribable expression.

At this moment, not a single high-ranking member of the Pill Alliance could muster a smile; they all felt a burning shame as if they had been viciously slapped across the face multiple times.

No one spoke, for they did not know what to say. It seemed that anything they might say or do at this time would be wrong.

“Gentlemen, let’s try to collect ourselves a bit. The Pill Alliance has not perished yet,” an elderly Pill Refiner said, hitting the table with a thud and speaking in a grave voice.

However, his swollen, red eyes clearly showed that he too had cried out loud because of the Pill Alliance’s defeat.

“How shall our Pill Alliance face the people of the Nine Countries from now on?” another person said, their tone extremely dejected.

“Alas, now throughout the Nine Countries, criticism towards our Pill Alliance is ceaseless. The impact of this defeat is too great; not only did our efforts in the Seven Seas until now go in vain, but our prestige and status within the Nine Countries will also plummet,” a high-ranking member of the Pill Alliance said with intense anguish.

“Whom can we blame? The Pill Alliance was not skilled enough; we can only blame ourselves,” someone said with a bitter smile.

…

In another great hall within the Ancient Pill Court, the four Heaven Kings and Dragon Haotian were seated here, and at this moment, the expressions of the Heaven Kings were extremely ugly, except for Dragon Haotian.

Especially the Western Moon King, his face so gloomy it seemed like water might drip from it, the fury in his brows looking like it could erupt uncontrollably at any moment.

Dragon Haotian’s expression, although not as grim as that of the Heaven Kings, was not much better, for the one who lost the third match was Long Zhixin, the most outstanding young talent of his Long Family’s current generation.

“We lost to the Seven Seas, all the Pill Alliance’s efforts there until now have been in vain,” the South Zodiac King said, shaking his head. Currently, the Tianlan Elder in the Seven Seas had been promoted by him, and the Pill Alliance’s development in the Seven Seas had also received much attention and support from the South Zodiac Elder.

“Don’t even mention the Seven Seas, we can barely maintain a foothold in the Nine Countries anymore,” the East Pole Heaven King said with a sneer.

“Why did we lose? Dragon Haotian, you owe me an explanation!” the Western Moon King looked towards Dragon Haotian and demanded coldly.
