The Legendary Son-in-law of the Emperor
Chapter 840 - 837 Epilogue

Chapter 840: Chapter 837 Epilogue

Once the competition began, each alchemist embarked on their own path of alchemy.

Among them, the true disciples at the forefront of the giant cloud already demonstrated the aura of greatness. Even in the simplest of gestures, there was a smooth and flowing charm.

They were methodical and precise, with every step executed perfectly.

This was the demeanor of a generation’s alchemy master.

And it matched their status exactly.

Several of these true disciples had already become Medicine Emperor level alchemists, respected even by the rulers of nations.

Among them were some eye-catching prodigious disciples.

The most remarkable of them was undoubtedly Ji Changtian, the Saint Heir of the Medicine Pavilion.

Ji Changtian was not only the Saint Heir but also a Medicine King.

Two years ago, before becoming a Medicine King, Ji Changtian had already competed against Medicine Emperor level alchemists and emerged victorious.

Today, although Ji Changtian was at the Medicine King level, his true skills were not inferior to a Medicine Emperor.

He simply chose not to hasten to the Alchemist Guild for assessment to refine himself.

The Medicine Pavilion members typically participated in the Alchemist Guild’s assessments as well.

Of course, this was merely a show for the world’s alchemists.

After all, the upper echelon of the Alchemist Guild was entirely composed of the Medicine Pavilion’s high-ranking members.

At this moment, Ji Changtian was wholly immersed in his own state, meticulously focused.

His demeanor caused some female disciples undergoing their trials within the giant cloud to become infatuated, leading to implosions of their furnaces.

Fortunately, it was just the beginning, so the impact wasn’t too severe.

If it occurred in the later stages, it could be dangerous or even life-threatening.

But with the Supreme Elder and ancestors around, there was no need to fear this.

If problems arose, the Supreme Elder and ancestors were ready to act.

Aside from the skilled veteran alchemists, there were apprentices at the back. In such a grand scene, it was inevitable for them to feel nervous and flustered, sometimes even comically clumsy.

Yet in such circumstances, no one would laugh at them.

At the farthest end, the Princess from the Ancient Demon Country, Dugu Jing, seemed nothing like an alchemist apprentice, completing each step expertly.

As the competition reached the midpoint, many individuals had their furnaces explode and chose to give up.

Meanwhile, some began solidifying their pills.

Various elixir fragrances wafted through the air, refreshing the soul.

"Changtian truly deserves to be our Medicine Pavilion Saint Heir, steady even at the Medicine King level in refining Mystics Pills."

"In my opinion, the winner this time will most likely be Changtian," an elder commented during the banquet.

Many elders nodded in agreement, expressing their approval.

Only Qin Yanbing at the head seat consistently observed Ye Xuan.

Qin Yanbing knew well that Ye Xuan was the one to judge this alchemy competition.

So who would emerge victorious wasn’t based purely on the grade of the elixirs refined.

He was quite clear about it; back when Medicine Venerate Yang Tianxin received Ye Xuan’s guidance, he was merely a Three Cauldron Alchemist, often facing problems with his elixirs and reprimand from his elders.

Yet Ye Xuan chose Yang Tianxin amidst many others, and Yang Tianxin later proved his alchemy talent, truly extraordinary.

Indeed, a gem shines with potential when unearthed.

Without discovery, it can never shine.

If the elders’ words were to come true and Ji Changtian was most likely to win, then what was the point of this alchemy competition?

"Young Master..."

Seeing Ye Xuan slowly close his eyes, Qin Yanbing was perplexed and softly called.

Ye Xuan raised his hand to signal Qin Yanbing to keep silent.

At that moment, although Ye Xuan wasn’t watching the stage, his Emperor Soul had already expanded silently.

The slightest actions of the millions of alchemists were clearly observable to Ye Xuan.

Success or failure lies in the details.

One’s character cannot be concealed in details.

Ji Changtian naturally caught Ye Xuan’s eye.

He was a promising talent.

Such talents...

There were several in the crowd.

Time continued to pass, and some highly skilled disciples had completed their alchemy, packed their elixirs in bottles, and set them aside in silent anticipation.

Suddenly, night fell.

The true disciples entered a critical phase.

A small group on the stage still continued to refine pills.

Some were covered in soot from explosions yet refused to give up, persisting onward.

Buzz————

After a while.

A large group of true disciples began solidifying their pills, revealing various Dan Charms that formed remarkable anomalies in the sky.

Sufficient to prove the elixirs they crafted were of the highest grade.

"Finally succeeded."

Upon successfully solidifying their pills, the true disciples breathed a collective sigh of relief.

Today was a significant event, and they knew the competition carried considerable weight, thus addressing it earnestly.

Now, their perfect completion naturally brought peace.

At the same time, confident smiles danced across their faces.

At the moment of pill completion, they all felt as though they’d emerged as victors.

Yet the competition continued.

Midway through, Ji Changtian also finalized his elixir refinement, attracting dragon and phoenix phenomena, truly astonishing.

The elders at the banquet sang praises, almost declaring Ji Changtian the winner.

"Master, take a look..."

Qin Yanbing noticed the competition nearing its end, yet Ye Xuan remained silent, prompting him to speak again.

Ye Xuan gently opened his eyes, his expression calm, and flew towards the giant cloud, telling Qiao Xinyu and others, "You wait here."

But Qin Yanbing dared not be careless and hurriedly followed.

Qi Jianqing and others, seeing this, also hurriedly followed.

As Ye Xuan flew towards the giant cloud, the myriad disciples above wore expressions of bewilderment.

"Ye Xuan?"

They were puzzled.

But seeing Qin Yanbing, Qi Jianqing, and others trailing Ye Xuan, they dared not act rashly and promptly saluted, "Greetings, Founder, Pavilion Master, esteemed elders!"

Ji Changtian also respectfully saluted, carrying an air of pride.

Heh.

In the end, was my alchemy technique what enchanted you?

With such thoughts, Ji Changtian felt growing happiness.

At this moment, even Qi Jianqing and others believed Ye Xuan was going to seek out Ji Changtian.

Surprisingly, Ye Xuan flew right past Ji Changtian, not even granting him a glance, heading straight for the far end of the giant cloud.

There, a miscellaneous disciple still refined pills, despite hectic fumbling and muttering, his gaze unwavering.

Solid as a rock!
