Nine Star Hegemon Body Art - Chapter 662
Chapter 662: 662
Long Chen followed Fang Chang into the Seven Treasure Jewel Tower . But this time, they didn’t go through the main gate, but through a side door .
There were a dozen guards in front of that side door . Fang Chang solemnly warned Long Chen that he couldn’t cause any trouble here .
Although the Pill Tower was jointly controlled by the Huo, Fang, and Chai families, the Pill Emperor Competition had caused some of the Pill Valley’s experts to come and watch . They had to pay more attention to the rules than ever .
Only now did Long Chen have a chance to ask what this Pill Emperor Competition truly was . This competition had gathered the elite Pill Emperors of the Eastern Wasteland . It was to pick out the most talented people . The top ten would have the qualifications to enter Pill Valley to cultivate .
Furthermore, it was said that the reward for the first place was exceedingly high . It was something that would make countless geniuses go mad . But the reward was different each time . In any case, everyone would go all-out to get the first place .
A reward that would make anyone go crazy? Hehe, I like that . The heavens have finally opened their eyes . Seeing how far I had to come to get here, they didn’t feel right letting me leave empty-handed .
When they reached the door, Fang Chang gave them his badge to examine . Although they all recognized him, they couldn’t be the slightest bit sloppy with this procedure .
After passing through, they entered the main hall . When they stepped onto a round disc, the disc slowly rose through the air . There was a formation carved into it that allowed it to be used for traveling up and down the tower .
“The Seven Treasure Jewel Tower’s first floor is a large hall used to receive visitors, as well as handling various matters .
“The second and third floors are where high level alchemists can refine pills . There are tens of thousands of alchemists refining pills there each day . Only those who have at least reached the Pill Emperor rank have the qualifications to enter here,” explained Fang Chang .
Tens of thousands? The Pill Tower really was enormous . It was no wonder it was said that almost all medicinal pills were monopolized by them . That kind of strength was truly immense .
“The fourth and fifth floors are soul nourishing regions . There are special formations that can nourish a person's mind and soul . If you’re tired after refining, you’ll only need to rest for two hours there before being completely refreshed .
“The reason the Pill Tower can refine so many pills in a day is definitely in part due to the soul nourishing regions . Furthermore, the soul nourishing regions can allow a person’s soul to advance . Many alchemy geniuses join Pill Tower to cultivate in the soul nourishing regions . If you cultivated there for a long time, it would be extremely beneficial to your soul . But to do that, you need to contribute a great deal to the Pill Tower .
“The sixth floor is the region the Chai family is in charge of . That is the Pill Tower’s Treasure Pavilion . There are pill furnaces, precious medicines, beast flames, and all kinds of alchemy inheritances there . There are even flame attribute secret arts . ” Fang Chang smiled with pride . This was something all the Pill Tower’s disciples were proud of .
“Long San, I’ll go help you pick a beast flame now . Your soul energy is terrifying, but your Pill Flame is trash . There’s still a month until the preliminaries . During this time, you have to increase your strength as much as possible . People will be washed out during the preliminaries,” warned Fang Chang as he brought Long Chen into the sixth floor .
“Haha, you’ve arrived . ”
Chai Liehuo had already come ahead of them . The Chai family was in charge of this place, so he had come in advance to make things more convenient for Long Chen .
“Come . I’ll bring you to our beast flame repository . ”
They followed Chai Liehuo down a long passageway . At the end, there was an iron gate . This gate had to be over three meters thick, and it required a special mechanism to open .
Passing through three such gates, a terrifying heat suddenly attacked them . A large room appeared in front of them .
The room had been made of steel . There were niches in the walls, with each having a bottle in it . Each bottle contained a beast flame .
“Wow, there are so many beast flames!”
Long Chen jumped in shock . There were hundreds of bottles here, each sealing a kind of beast flame .
“Hehe, this is our Pill Tower’s beast flame repository . All of these are ranked in the top hundred of the beast flame rankings . Other than the top three beast flames, we should have every single one . We even have multiples,” said Chai Liehuo .
Long Chen’s arm suddenly heated up . He hastily grabbed that arm . Huo Long had almost flown out . It was like a Magical Beast that had been starving for countless years and now finally saw meat . It wanted to swallow all of it in one gulp .
“Huo Long, endure it for now . Now isn’t the time . I promise you, if you’re patient, these will quickly be yours,” Long Chen comforted it .
He knew that Huo Long needed energy to grow . But the amount of energy Long Chen was able to offer it was limited .
The most important thing was that he needed to cultivate . How did he have that much time to feed it? That had made Huo Long starve this entire time, so seeing this many beast flames, it immediately became agitated .
It was a good thing Huo Long listened to him and endured it . That made Long Chen sigh with relief .
“Long San, you can pick any beast flame here . But let me warn you that while the more powerful the beast flame, the more efficient your alchemy will be, a stronger beast flame requires a longer time to suppress . If you choose the Blazing Python Scale Flame, you have to be prepared . If you aren’t able to suppress it within a month, you might end up being washed out during the preliminaries,” warned Chai Liehuo .
Chai Liehuo and Fang Chang both used the Blazing Python Scale Flame . It was ranked fourth on the beast flame rankings, and it was extremely powerful . Although it was one rank lower than Long Chen’s Violet Phoenix Sparrow Flame, it was still extremely powerful .
Long Chen didn’t dare reveal the Violet Phoenix Sparrow Flame, as that would expose his identity . Using the Blazing Python Scale Flame would be much more convenient .
As for suppressing it? That was just a joke . With an Earth Flame present, how could it not be suppressed?
“I’ll choose the Blazing Python Scale Flame . Don’t worry, with my powerful soul energy, I should be able to suppress it quickly,” said Long Chen confidently .
As he said this, Long Chen went to grab the Blazing Python Scale Flame’s bottle . There was only one bottle of it left .
“Wait a moment!”
Suddenly, a cold shout rang out . A group of people rushed into the repository . Long Chen saw that it was actually Huo Wufang leading three others .
But Long Chen acted as if he hadn’t heard him, and he directly picked up the bottle . What kind of joke was that? The things that he settled on were his .
“Put down the Blazing Python Scale Flame! I already reserved it yesterday,” raged Huo Wufang .
“You reserved it? How come I didn’t know about that?” said Chai Liehuo .
Huo Wufang suddenly took out a piece of paper . “Yesterday, I applied to have it, and today I came to get it . What, do you dare abuse your public position?”
Fang Chang’s expression changed slightly . Now it was troublesome . If Huo Wufang had reserved it, then this Blazing Python Scale Flame would have to be given to him .
That was one of the rules of the Pill Tower . Once a disciple managed to reach certain standards, they could make applications to the Pill Tower to ask for certain beast flames .
It was most definitely Duan Tianqiao . Huo Wufang was trying to get it for her . With her ninth tier Earth class soul energy, she truly could apply for the Blazing Python Scale Flame .
“The date really does say yesterday . However, I’m very sorry, but I can’t give the Blazing Python Scale Flame to you,” said Chai Liehuo .
“You dare? If you don’t give it to me, I’ll immediately report you . Do you dare break the Pill Tower’s rules?” sneered Huo Wufang .
“Go ahead and report me . But let me tell you, it won’t have any use . Three days ago, there was already an application for this Blazing Python Scale Flame . So unfortunately, you’re still too late . Isn’t that right Fang Chang?” Chai Liehuo winked to Fang Chang . His meaning could not be more obvious .
Fang Chang ‘suddenly recalled the truth’ and said, “That’s right, that’s right . I reserved it three days ago . So sorry, hehe . ”
“You! I don’t believe you! Bring out your application!” raged Huo Wufang .
“The application is with my family . I forgot to bring it . I can show you the application later . ” Chai Liehuo smiled .
Huo Wufang was enraged . Chai Liehuo was definitely doing this intentionally . But it was their Chai family that had this authority .
All Chai Liehuo had to do was make up an application and put the date as three days ago . Thinking of that, Huo Wufang’s face turned green with rage . But he was also powerless .
“Fine! Just wait! Tianqiao, Qifeng, you guys pick out a beast flame . ” Huo Wufang could only let his people pick out a weaker beast flame .
When Huo Wufang left with an ugly expression, Long Chen’s group of three looked at each other and laughed . That was especially true of Fang Chang and Chai Liehuo . It had been a long time since they had been this happy .
“Long San, we’ll protect you . You can refine the Blazing Python Scale Flame here . ”
Long Chen nodded and directly took out the beast flame . He began to refine it . Fang Chang and Chai Liehuo were shocked .
The wild and berserk Blazing Python Scale Flame seemed like an obedient rabbit . It simply allowed itself to be absorbed by Long Chen without the slightest resistance .
They weren’t aware that Long Chen had an Earth Flame . In front of an Earth Flame, beast flames were like ants in front of a dragon . They wouldn’t dare to resist .
Long Chen had originally been planning on refining the Blazing Python Scale Flame and then feeding the Violet Phoenix Sparrow Flame to Huo Long . But suddenly he had a thought . He wondered if it was possible for him to keep both beast flames .
As a result, Long Chen was shocked to see that with Huo Long’s suppression, the two beast flames didn’t dare struggle . They didn’t dare to fight with or devour the other .
“Haha, Huo Long, congratulations . In the future, there will be two chickens laying eggs for you,” laughed Long Chen inside .
Although instantly devouring a beast flame would be extremely beneficial to Huo Long, in the long view, killing the chicken to get its eggs was not worth it .
Long Chen had Huo Long lightly suppress the two beast flames . The two of them were shivering in terror . Then under Long Chen’s guidance, they began to release some of their energy to Huo Long .
Their lost power was immediately recovered with Long Chen’s spiritual yuan . Long Chen was delighted to see this . In the future, he could have Huo Long look after them and get a constant stream of food for itself .
Long Chen gently breathed out and opened his eyes . A scarlet flame appeared in his hand . The ripples coming from the flame looked like scales .
“That’s too exaggerated, isn’t it?!” cried Chai Liehuo and Fang Chang .
