Chapter 194: The Invitation of Xuan Kongzi!

Shengdan City, Inner Sector, Dan Academy.

With a strong wave of energy, the sky was filled with thunderous pill tribulations.

The members of the Dan family residing in the Dan Academy were already used to it; this had been a common scene over the past few months.

The young master Dan Xuan, no one knew from where, had met a master alchemist.

Since he lodged in the Dan Academy, that master alchemist's passion for alchemy had been burning intensely.

Everyone suspected that this master alchemist didn't stop for a moment, always refining high-level pills.

"I never thought pill tribulations, which were rarely seen, would now be seen so often."

"Isn't a scene like this even rare in the Dan family?"

"The first time I saw the pill tribulations, I worried that the alchemist inside couldn't withstand them."

"Hahaha, I thought so too, but the facts showed we underestimated the alchemist."

"Just this technique of neutralizing the tribulations already leaves us far behind."

The Dan family members conversed lively, observing how the lightning fell from the sky and quickly vanished in the courtyard. They were full of curiosity.

What kind of pill was that master alchemist refining? And what technique did he use to neutralize the tribulations so quickly?

In the main residence of the Dan Academy, Dan Xuan was receiving Elder Liu Tian. Hearing the thunder, Dan Xuan lifted his head with a bitter expression.

Now he understood how Xiao Ze had become a master alchemist.

It was that crazy obsession with alchemy that he himself did not possess.

A few months ago, when Dan Xuan finished his affairs, he wanted to take Xiao Ze for a walk around Shengdan City.

But hearing that Xiao Ze's servant said he was already in a state of pill refinement, Dan Xuan, being an alchemist, didn't want to interrupt him.

The first time Xiao Ze attracted pill tribulations, Dan Xuan worried about him.

But Xiao Ze soon proved there was no need to worry.

When Dan Xuan thought Xiao Ze would take a break, Xiao Ze gave him a grade seven pill he had refined, the Revitalization Pill, and asked him to collect more ingredients.

The abundance of ingredients in Shengdan City was not a problem for Dan Xuan, who quickly collected what was needed for the Revitalization Pills.

With a stable supply of ingredients, Xiao Ze plunged back into his alchemical madness.

"It's terrifying, advanced level seven... I think Xiao Ze's future achievements will be much greater."

Elder Liu Tian, having heard about Xiao Ze from Dan Xuan, commented with admiration.

"Yes, consecutive months refining high-level pills non-stop. I worried his spiritual strength would be exhausted."

Dan Xuan shook his head, knowing he couldn't compare to the monster that was Xiao Ze.

"By the way, why do you have time to come today, Elder Liu Tian?"

"President Xuan Kongzi wants to see Xiao Ze. He originally wanted to ask you to find him, but it turns out he's residing here in the Dan Academy."

Elder Liu Tian explained.

"I understand. If Elder Liu Tian has important matters, I can relay the message."

"No need. Seeing these tribulations, he should finish soon."

"Let's go then. Seeing Xiao Ze's state, if no one looks for him, he'll probably continue refining."

Dan Xuan suggested.

Elder Liu Tian nodded. According to Dan Xuan, Xiao Ze had been in this state for months and was very likely to continue refining.

Inside Xiao Ze's room, Shengdan City had an isolated chamber specially designed to avoid interference and spying, ideal for alchemists.

After enduring the pill tribulations, Xiao Ze's eyes shone with flashes.

The Primordial Tree absorbed the energy of the tribulations, returning it to his body.

With his current constitution, he didn't need to refine the energy; he could absorb it directly.

"Months of refining have not only improved my alchemical skills but also increased my internal thunder energy. The effect of thunder body training is remarkable."

"For other alchemists, pill tribulations are troublesome. For me, they are a great improvement."

"With the increase in my thunder energy, I might not need the Three Thousand Thunder Movements. I could create a combat technique with thunder attributes myself."

After storing the Revitalization Pill well, Xiao Ze blinked, and the flash in his eyes disappeared.

With his soul perception activated by alchemy, he sensed guests outside.

He decided not to continue refining and stored his alchemy cauldron.

In another room, Qing Lin was training hard. In Shengdan City, it was hard to find magical snake beasts, so Qing Lin had to train on her own.

Creak.

"Elder Liu Tian, Brother Dan Xuan, what brings you here?"

"Xiao Ze, with your non-stop refining, anyone would worry you might exhaust yourself."

Dan Xuan joked half-seriously.

But Xiao Ze looked very good, with bright eyes and a glow in them.

"Don't worry, I know how to handle it."

Elder Liu Tian observed Xiao Ze carefully and couldn't help but sigh.

"It seems you not only surpass me in talent but also in effort."

"Elder Liu Tian, you jest. My alchemical skills are not up to par yet."

"Ah, once your soul reaches the spirit realm, you will naturally become an eighth-level alchemist. Then we will be on the same level."

Elder Liu Tian sighed, feeling the new generations pushing him to retire.

"I almost forgot the matter. Xiao Ze, President Xuan Kongzi wants to see you."

Hearing this, Xiao Ze raised his eyebrows. "Alright, I'll prepare. It's not appropriate to see President Xuan Kongzi in my current state."

Xiao Ze returned to his room, quickly tidied up his appearance, and warned Qing Lin to be careful.

Although Shengdan City was generally safe, it was always good to be cautious.

Guided by Elder Liu Tian, Xiao Ze arrived at the enormous black tower in the center of Shengdan City's inner sector.

The black tower rising to the clouds was also the tower that appeared on the alchemist's emblem.

Compared to the outer sector, fewer people were entering and leaving the tower, but each had an impressive presence and powerful spiritual strength.

After multiple security checks, they finally entered the Dan Tower. Elder Liu Tian led Xiao Ze directly to the upper levels.

They stopped before a large hall.

"Very well, you can enter alone now. I won't accompany you further."

Xiao Ze bowed. "Thank you, Elder Liu Tian."

Upon opening the hall doors, the first thing he saw were numerous bookshelves. Following the guide, Xiao Ze walked among the shelves.

In a corner, an elderly man in a white robe suddenly appeared.

With white hair and beard, the elder's face was marked by deep wrinkles. His eyes, unfathomable like deep pools, had a kind smile.

"You must be Xiao Ze. I am Xuan Kong Zi. Could you explain to me what the Spiritual Transformation Pill is?"

Hearing this, Xiao Ze narrowed his eyes. So they took several months to investigate at Jia Nan Academy, huh?

When Xiao Ze registered at the Study Tower, Elder Liu Tian didn't ask about the Spiritual Transformation Pill, so he didn't mention it.

Now that Xuan Kong Zi mentioned it, it was evident that he had found out at Jia Nan Academy.
