Chapter 257: The Four Pavilions Conference

A spatial black hole unleashed a terrifying energy storm. Xiao Ze quickly closed the spatial crack, preventing the energy from emerging. "The Emperor Seal Technique is truly a legacy technique comparable to a celestial technique," thought Xiao Ze. "After combining the three seals, if I used it inside this elder tower, it would instantly destroy it."

Xiao Ze opened the door of the secret chamber and saw Medusa sitting on a chair, with Qing Lin standing in front of her. "Young Master Xiao Ze!" Hearing the door, Qing Lin quickly turned around, showing a joyful expression upon seeing him. However, she noticed that Xiao Ze looked different. Before, although she couldn't discern his true power, she felt he was unfathomable. Now, he seemed like an ordinary person, without a trace of danger. This feeling left her stunned.

Seeing the tension between them, Xiao Ze approached Qing Lin, patting her head and addressing Medusa. "Queen Medusa, how is it that you are here? It seems you have fully merged with the soul of the Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python," said Xiao Ze, examining her.

Medusa immediately stood up upon hearing Xiao Ze. Despite her pride, she knew her position and power didn't give her the right to be arrogant in front of him. Medusa nodded and responded, "I have fully merged with the soul of the Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python thanks to your previous help, enhancing my power to the pinnacle of the seventh level."

"Being my guardian is not beneath you?" added Xiao Ze. Medusa was surprised that Medusa took her guardian role so seriously. "Of course, a pinnacle Dou Zong expert is quite respectable in Zhongzhou," nodded Xiao Ze. "But with my current power, a guardian at the pinnacle of Dou Zong is not of great use."

Medusa clenched her fists, feeling a mix of frustration and determination. Despite her royal lineage among magical beasts, her progress didn't match Xiao Ze's. "So, what do you want to do?" asked Medusa, fearing Xiao Ze no longer needed her.

"Naturally, to enhance your power. A Dou Zun warrior would be much more useful," replied Xiao Ze with a smile. Then, he turned to Qing Lin. "Qing Lin, you absorbed part of the soul of the Ancient Heavenly Serpent. Shouldn't there be enough energy left for you to reach Dou Zun?"

Qing Lin nodded: "Yes, there's still enough. Besides, the other serpent beings I control are providing me with douqi."

"Both of you are close to advancing. I'll prepare two Dou Zun Condensation Pills to increase your chances," said Xiao Ze.

"But… Xiao Ze, I've just reached the peak of the seventh level. I'm not sure I can advance to Dou Zun," admitted Medusa.

"Don't worry. I found a Thousand-Year Blood Crystal. No one else can use it, so we'll use it to strengthen your power," said Xiao Ze. "But in return, you'll have to double your time as my guardian. Do you accept?"

Medusa swallowed, knowing how valuable the crystal was for improving her lineage. Although she wouldn't reach the level of the Nine-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python, advancing by one more color would be a significant achievement.

"I accept!" exclaimed Medusa enthusiastically.

"Alright, get ready for your advancement. I'll prepare the pills," concluded Xiao Ze, sending both of them to their respective training chambers.

Now that Xiao Ze had reached the Dou Zun level, making eighth-level pills was easier for him. Before, his success rate was 50%, but now, he had a high probability of success.

The elders and disciples of the Sacred Alchemy Tower, used to the frequent lightning caused by Xiao Ze's pill-making, were increasingly astonished.

Even the three presidents inside the black tower commented with laughter.

"We should consider advancing Xiao Ze's entry into the Little Alchemy Tower. With his frequent creations, other clans might think the Alchemy Tower has an endless supply of high-level pills," said Xuan Kongzi.

"Every year, the requests for high-level pills almost form a mountain. If others find out about this, they'll believe the Alchemy Tower has a huge stock," added Xuan Yi, laughing.

"I think we should take advantage of the upcoming Four Corners Pavilion Conference to introduce Xiao Ze and settle this matter. This way, we can prevent him from becoming too obsessed with alchemy," suggested Tian Leizi.

Both nodded, and Xuan Kongzi concluded, "As the future leader of the Alchemy Tower, Xiao Ze must be presented at the conference. This way, they won't just hear about him, they'll see him."
