“There’s no need to be in such a hurry about the alchemist evaluation. Why don’t you wait for a few moves with me first? 1 think there’s still time.”
“That’s right. 1 think the Alchemist Rankings will start later. There’s no hurry now.”
Qinghe ignored them with a dark face and helped Li Yuanqing to open the road in front. He and Chang Ping helped Li Yuanqing to open a small road.
The people outside were very enthusiastic. Li Yuanqing also knew that most of them were chasing fame and fortune, so he was not interested in them.
However, he kept feeling that there was a very strange gaze staring at him in the dark, making him a little uneasy.
He raised his head and looked at a tall pavilion in the distance. He saw that it was empty and there was nothing.
He didn’t know who the person hiding in the dark was, but it seemed that he didn’t have any ill intentions.
Passing through the crowd, Qing He found a two-horse carriage.
They couldn’t fly freely in the city, so this kind of carriage was still a practical thing.
Qinghe jumped to the front of the carriage and became the coachman. Li Yuanqing and Chang Ping followed behind and sat in the carriage.
Jing He grabbed Jiang Shen and flung him with all his might. The two horses started to move on all fours and slowly rose into the air.
“Brother Li, sit tight.”
After Qing He gave his last order, the white carriages flew into the sky.
The challengers behind him were still shouting persistently.
“Young Master Li, don’t go. It’ll only take a while, it won’t take too long.”
“Young Hero Li, are you scared? I think you probably used some dirty tricks at that time.”
“In the end, he’s just a coward. He’s not willing to accept any challenge.”
However, Li Yuanqing did not feel anything towards their simple provocation. His eyes flashed and a black shadow suddenly landed in the direction of the tall pavilion. It landed on the street and disappeared.
“Big Brother, what are you looking at?”
Chang Ping looked in that direction but saw nothing.
Li Yuanqing shook his head and said to him,”I don’t know who he is.””
That was naturally the best. Being able to obtain a familiar pill formula would naturally yield twice the result with half the effort when refining.
However, that was all a matter of luck.
Li Yuanqing looked around and looked at the cultivators who had come with him to do the evaluation.
Most of these people were young, and most of them were around his age. There were also some who were very young. Most of them were surrounded by many people, and they seemed to have an extraordinary status.
According to Li Yuanqing’s understanding, only those who came from extremely wealthy families or core disciples of large sects could come into contact with large amounts of medicinal pill refinement at a very young age.
This was because the art of alchemy was not just about competing with the alchemy furnace. The most important thing was still to have one’s own cultivation base.
If one’s cultivation level could not increase, then it would be extremely difficult for one to come into contact with alchemy.
Even if one had cultivation, the materials needed to refine pills were so expensive. Usually, the cost of nurturing one to refine pills was astronomical. To think that at such a young age, one did not need to guess to know that he was the core target of the essay.
Li Yuanqing took a quick look. There were not many children like this, less than ten of them. Most of them were around his age, and there were about a hundred of them.
The alchemist evaluation was held once every six months, and this number was considered considerable.
Thinking about it, it must have happened to be the once-in-a-decade Forum Conference, which was why it was so lively.
The huge pearl on the dome of Li Yuanqing’s room suddenly twisted.
The creaking sound made everyone’s eyes focus on the pearl.
After making a circle, the race slowly descended, and a three-meter-wide passage appeared above them.
From the passageway, three people descended hand in hand and slowly stood in the middle of the hall.
The voices of the young people outside gradually became softer.
No one dared to say anything after the three of them appeared. They were all focused on them.
Ever since the three of them descended, the atmosphere in the entire Heaven had changed. The spiritual energy that was a little chaotic at the beginning had all become orderly.
Everything suddenly became orderly, as if the three of them had some kind of magical power.
“Isn’t this the Pill Pavilion’s First Elder, Luo Cheng? He didn’t expect that a level nine alchemist like First Elder Luo would personally come to preside over the evaluation.”
Li Yuanqing happened to hear the whispers of the people beside him.
“I told you that there would be an important person in this evaluation conference. It’s true.”
“Since the Great Elder is here, we’re right. We have to perform well.”
