Chapter 2837: Chapter 2837: The Eve of the Conference

"Boss, are you aware of the upcoming Pill Master Convention?"

After settling into the inn, Fang Bai asked the innkeeper about this matter, while Great Might Divine King and Rongrong listened attentively.

"Three guests are inquiring about the Pill Master Convention? I do know a bit about it..."

The innkeeper, a high-rank Divine Venerable Realm expert, had already realized that Fang Bai was an alchemist, and had come for the Pill Master Convention, accompanied by a mid-rank Divine King Realm expert, Great Might Divine King, thus he naturally wouldn’t dare to neglect them.

He then shared everything he knew about the Pill Master Convention with Fang Bai and the other two experts, concluding with, "If you wish to participate in the Pill Master Convention, you can now go to the Sect Leader Mansion to register. The official convention will be held in two days, where dozens of Divine King Realm alchemists will gather, a rare grand event in the Divine Realm."

Upon hearing this, Fang Bai thanked him, then set off with Great Might Divine King and Rongrong to the Sect Leader Mansion.

At the Sect Leader Mansion, Fang Bai demonstrated his alchemy technique, and everything went smoothly, receiving three yellow Divine Crystal-made passes. ℴ

With these three passes, they could move freely at the Pill Master Convention in two days.

"There’s still two days before the Pill Master Convention starts, why not take this opportunity to visit some Divine King Realm alchemists!"

Great Might Divine King suggested.

He was eager to obtain the Divine King Realm Creation Pill and couldn’t wait any longer.

Fang Bai and Rongrong exchanged forlorn glances but agreed nonetheless.

Fang Bai and Rongrong previously heard from the innkeeper that during this Pill Master Convention, alchemists would not only exchange techniques but also compete in alchemy, with the top three able to enter the Divine Medicine Valley on Tianlin Star for a day.

During this day, the three alchemists could pick any divine medicine they wished.

It’s said that the Divine Medicine Valley houses abundant high-grade divine medicines that can be used to refine various Divine King Realm Divine Elixirs, a sanctum sought after by Divine King Realm alchemists.

Thus, Fang Bai and Rongrong foresaw that the alchemists would be in seclusion for conditioning, so visiting might be futile.

But Great Might Divine King insisted, so they didn’t object and followed him.

When obtaining the passes earlier, they had learned about the situation of the various alchemists and knew their residences, so although not entirely familiar, they managed to find their way.

Just as Fang Bai and Rongrong predicted, they were turned away at each Divine King Realm alchemist’s door.

Despite Great Might Divine King’s notable strength, the Divine King Realm alchemists had lofty standards and showed him no face.

Great Might Divine King was frustrated but helpless.

He understood that if he dared to forcefully enter any Divine King Realm alchemist’s residence, countless experts would conspire against him, causing trouble.

Currently, Great Might Divine King needed the Divine King Realm alchemists, so he couldn’t afford to offend any of them, and after repeated refusals, he resigned himself to wait patiently for the official start of the Pill Master Convention in two days.

Great Might Divine King, disheartened, went into seclusion for meditation.

Fang Bai and Rongrong, with time to spare, ventured across Tianlin Star together.

During this, they were drawn to the outskirts of the fabled Divine Medicine Valley on Tianlin Star, but alas, numerous Divine Venerable Realm experts guarded the valley’s entrance, barring their passage.

Fang Bai and Rongrong’s intent to enter the Divine Medicine Valley was simply to gather more divine medicine for Great Might Divine King, sufficient to refine the Creation Pill.

However, unable to enter the valley, they turned to the Cultivation Resource Exchange Market in Tianlin City for opportunities.

Perhaps due to the impending Pill Master Convention, the Cultivation Resource Exchange Market in Tianlin City had become exceptionally lively recently.

Apparently, experts from nearby star systems had rushed here upon hearing news of the impending convention, before Tianlin Star’s closure.

Their objectives were clear: firstly, to network with Divine King Realm alchemists, hoping for divine elixirs and medicines; secondly, to exchange cultivation resources with fellow experts.

The majority of them, upon arriving in Tianlin City, flocked to the Cultivation Resource Exchange Market, seeking what they needed.

Fang Bai and Rongrong, hand in hand, wandered through the market, seeking the cultivation resources they desired.

Although they were merely Divine Venerable Realm experts, with Great Might Divine King by their side and the spatial divine ring inherited from the fallen Xuandao Divine King, they lacked no Divine King Realm cultivation resources.

Hence, typical Divine King Grade cultivation resources barely piqued their interest.

"This sword isn’t bad..."

Rongrong stopped at a stall, her eyes fixing on a sword-shaped divine artifact emitting a faint yellow glow, her expression revealing some delight.

The sword-shaped divine artifact was of initial Divine King Realm grade. For Rongrong, with mid-rank Divine Venerable Realm cultivation level and possessing an Innate Spiritual Root, wielding it was effortless.

Fang Bai inspected it closely; the sword-shaped divine artifact was not only lustrous but also sleek, complementing Rongrong’s attire and aura perfectly.

"This Goddess has a keen eye!"

The stall owner, a high-rank Divine Venerable Realm expert, seeing potential business, perked up and smiled, saying, "This divine artifact previously belonged to a Female God King. I exchanged two million yellow Divine Crystals for it. If you desire it, I’ll ask for no profit and still offer it at two million yellow Divine Crystals."

Typically, an initial Divine King Realm divine artifact could be traded for about one million yellow Divine Crystals; the stallmaster, judging Rongrong and Fang Bai as young and presumably inexperienced, aimed for a hefty profit.

Little did he know that Rongrong’s grandfather was a mid-rank Divine King Realm expert, and she had seen many finer artifacts, so she wasn’t fooled.

Rongrong chuckled and said, "This Upper God must be jesting. This divine artifact is only initial Divine King Realm level; it can’t possibly be worth two million yellow Divine Crystals! How about five hundred thousand yellow Divine Crystals?"

The stall owner’s eyebrow twitched, realizing he had met someone knowledgeable. Forced to laugh, he replied, "Though this divine artifact is initial Divine King Realm level, it’s a superior item among them, hence more valuable than standard ones. If you offer fifteen hundred thousand yellow Divine Crystals, you can take it."

"Seven hundred thousand is all I can give. If that’s agreeable, I’ll transfer the Divine Crystals."

Rongrong began negotiating.
