Chapter 4013: Ten Crowned King

ful as the Shi family. He couldn't possibly afford to provoke them.Yan Xuemin didn't give him a chance to explain. He slapped him hard across the face and kicked him to the ground. Then, he waved his...Zhuge Qingyang said: "Then you don't know much about the sects in the fairy world. In fact, every major sect has its own immortal alchemist, and this is even more so for the five great sects."

After all, their demand for cultivation resources is enormous. They can't rely solely on the Alchemist Guild; that would be too expensive and they wouldn't produce enough.

Overall, large sects like Lingxiao Sect rely on self-sufficiency for about half of their medicinal needs, while the other half is supplied by the Alchemist Guild.

So they don't lose out. If the alchemists supported by their own sect manage to obtain the title of Dan Wang, not only can they gain more resources, but they can also gain immense fame, which is even more beneficial for the development of the sect.

"That makes sense."

Ye Bufan suddenly realized, it turns out that there were so many things hidden behind a Dan Wang Grand Competition.

"Senior Zhuge, could it be that after obtaining the title of Dan King, all you get is a spot in the Xianpa Lingjing"

"So that means there wouldn't be any special rewards for those remaining forty-nine people, just the same as everyone else"

Of course not.

Zhuge Qingyang said, "Whoever can get the title of Dan Wang will surely gain both fame and fortune. This is also the reason why countless immortal alchemists attach great importance to the competition."

His reputation speaks for itself. As a celestial alchemist, his status was already extremely high. After sitting on the throne of the Dan King, he would be able to sit on an equal footing with the heads of the five major sects.

As for the benefits, according to the rules of previous competitions, the five major sects must at least offer three beads and twelve Grade-Twelve Immortal Spirit Herbs as rewards for the Pill King.

It may not seem like a lot, but the five major sects' contributions are all extraordinary. They are the extremely rare twelfth-order variety. This is an extremely generous reward for any alchemist.

"Oh!"

Ye Bufan nodded, he was quite satisfied with this prize. He had a lot of Xianlingcao in his hands now, but there were very few high-level ones, which wasn't enough at all.

"Senior Zhuge, I heard that the Tiansheng Sect possesses a Bodhi Heart. Is this true"

A hint of surprise flashed in Zhuge Qingyang's eyes, followed by a shake of his head.

"I'm not quite sure about that either. You see, a Bodhi Heart is already beyond the realm of twelve-tiered Immortal Herbs; it's a holy relic."

Whoever gets their hands on it, I'm afraid they wouldn't be able to hide it, let alone tell outsiders.

There's a legend about Tianshengmen having Bodhi mind, which I'd heard before. However, the headmaster of Tianshengmen has always denied it, so it's impossible to confirm whether it's true or not.

"Senior, to be frank with you, I urgently need the compassion of a Bodhisattva to heal a very important friend."

If the Tiansheng Gate truly possesses this treasure, is there any way to get it into our hands

Ye Bufan is not a rigid person. For his master, Gong Qingxuan, and for awakening the fairy Yuan Yao, if there was truly concrete news about the Bodhi heart, he would do everything in his power to obtain it.

Upon learning of the Heavenly Saint Gate's Sect Master's power, he immediately abandoned his previous reckless plan.

A Saint Emperor of the fifth rank, facing such a powerful being, if they don't surrender willingly, there's nothing you can do.

Everyone wants a compassionate heart, so how could they possibly give it to someone else

The reason I ask this is to see if this well-traveled old man might have a different perspective.

"This is too hard."

Zhuge Qingyang shook his head, "Things like the Bodhi Heart, a heavenly sacred artifact, countless people want it. It's impossible for Tiansheng Men to hand it over."

In other words, if they really have this thing, it's possible they used it up already.

If we want to try another way, then maybe we could exchange something of equal value, and there might be some hope.

Ye Bufan sighed inwardly after hearing this. Treasures of the same level were incredibly rare, comparable to a Bodhi heart only in the most exceptional cases.

The treasure you have in hand, the Immortal Spirit Mushroom of Creation, is one example. But three treasures must be gathered to refine the Bodhi Creation Pill and awaken Fairy Yuan Yao. How could it be exchanged

Now we can only take it one step at a time and wait for concrete news before figuring out a plan.

No matter what, I must reach the peak of the Dan King's throne. Only then can I speak with the Sect Master of Tianshengmen and obtain more information.

Let's put these ideas aside for now. The most pressing matter is still the Dan Wang competition.

"Senior Zhuge, I wonder who has the best chance of obtaining the title of Dan King in this competition"

As the saying goes, "Knowing yourself and your enemy will ensure victory in a hundred battles." It's crucial to gather as much information about your opponent as possible.

This without a doubt, must be Crown Prince Chu Jiu Yu, the ten-crowned king.

Zhuge Qingyang's words were firm and resolute, without any hesitation.

"Ten Crowned King of Alchemy" Ye Bufan asked in astonishment, "Could it be that this Senior Chu Jiuyu has continuously reigned as the King of Alchemy for ten consecutive times"

"Quite right, Chu Jiuyu is undoubtedly a prodigy in alchemy. Ever since his first participation in the Dan Wang Grand Competition, no one has been able to rival him."

For a thousand years, he has reigned supreme as the King of Dan. Based on my estimation, this time will be no different; he is destined to claim victory once more.

Speaking of Chu Jiuyu, Zhurge Qingyang's eyes were full of admiration.

Ye Bufan said, "I wonder which sect or school Senior Chu belongs to. Could you be a Xian Dan master from one of the Five Great Sects"

"He's not any of that. He's simply an alchemical fanatic born for alchemy, with no sect or school, his eyes fixed only on the path of alchemy, nothing else matters."

Ye Bufan said, "Since that's the case, senior, why not recruit him to the Alchemist Union"

"Don't you think I want to But I can't."

Zhuge Qingyang said, "Since the first time he climbed to the top of Dan Wang, countless sects have wanted to invite him to join, but he refused them all."

The old man even went to his door personally, and was willing to give up his position as president.

Ye Bufan asked, "Was the senior also rejected"

He didn't directly refuse, but Chu Jiuyu proposed a condition at the time. They would have a competition, and if he won in alchemy, he would be willing to join the Alchemist Guild.

"This..."

Ye Bufan remained silent. The current Alchemy Master Guild president hadn't changed, and the seven elders showed no sign of Chu Jiuyu. The results of the competition were clear.

Indeed, Zhuge Qingyang showed no shame in his defeat, directly stating: "This old man has lost, and the loss was utterly inevitable.

As fellow cultivators at the 12th rank of alchemy, I'm far inferior to Chu Jiu Yu.

"Oh!"

The old man was so honest that Ye Bufan didn't want to continue the topic.

"Senior, who does the Alchemist's Guild send to compete this time"

Zhuge Qingyang said, "The two who will represent the Alchemist's Guild are Qiqi and Luo Rong's disciple Xie Hongying."

Ye Bufan was a little surprised. He knew very well about Hua Qiqi's alchemy skills. If she hadn't met him, she probably wouldn't have been able to enter the ranks of twelfth-order Immortal Dan Masters.

As for Xie Hongying, she's probably still lacking. Could the Alchemist's Guild really only send these two people to compete

By the time we three old fellows reached this stage, it would be as difficult as climbing to heaven to advance further. Since we couldn't possibly surpass Chu Jiuyu, there was no need to embarrass ourselves by trying.

Ye Bufan nodded slightly. The guild master and elders of the Alchemist Guild, if they knew they couldn't reach the peak of the Dan Wang, there was indeed no need to participate, otherwise it would be embarrassing.

At the same time, Chu Jiuyu became even more curious. He wondered what kind of person could suppress the Alchemist Guild to this extent.

"Well, let's not dwell on it. In the future, alchemy will still rely on you young people."

Zhuge Qingyang, speaking, flipped his wrist. A storage ring appeared in his palm.
