Chapter 2840: Chapter 2840: The Tournament Begins

The main reason Fang Bai signed up for the Dan Master Competition was for the Great Mighty God King.

Since there are many divine herbs at the God King Realm within the Herbal Valley, maybe there could be the Five-Color Human-Shaped Herb to create the Creation Pill at the God King Realm.

Although Fang Bai currently cannot refine the Creation Pill for the God King Realm and cannot directly help the Great Mighty God King extend his lifespan, if he can pick a few God King Realm Five-Color Humanoid Herbs, it would be an indirect help to the Great Mighty God King.

After all, refining the Creation Pill of the God King Realm is very difficult, and for a usual God King Realm Alchemist, a success rate of twenty to thirty percent is already quite good, which requires preparing multiple sets of materials to be well-prepared.

Fang Bai’s Divine Sense swept over the alchemists at the Divine Venerable Realm on the Sect Leader Mansion’s square, feeling that securing a position in the top three among alchemists was as easy as pie for him.

On the first day of the Dan Master Competition, there was no special arrangement, just an opportunity for alchemists from various paths to get acquainted, either to exchange insights on the Alchemy Dao or to interact over cultivation resources.

Under Fang Bai’s leadership, the Great Mighty God King toured the side with the God King Realm Alchemists and expressed to several God King Realm Alchemists his desire to exchange large amounts of cultivation resources for the Creation Pill at the God King Realm.

He brought out almost all of his cultivation resources accumulated over the years, hoping to impress one of the God King Realm Alchemists, but unexpectedly, those alchemists showed no interest, either firmly or tactfully refusing him.

This greatly disappointed the Great Mighty God King, his complexion darkening further.

"Why don’t we ask those two high-rank God King Realm Alchemists?"

Rongrong pointed to the two alchemists sitting with the average minor Sect Leader of the Sect Leader Mansion, whispering to her grandfather.

The Sect Leader of Heavenly Kirin Star is an average minor Sect Leader with high-rank God King Realm cultivation level, seemingly stronger than the two high-rank God King Realm alchemists beside him.

His pressure enveloped the entire venue, and all powers, including those at the Divine Venerable Realm alchemists, were intimidated by his overwhelming aura.

The two high-rank God King Realm alchemists beside him were invited by him to host this year’s Dan Master Competition, and would also serve as the judges for the competition.

Among hundreds of alchemists of various ranks, the two God King Realm alchemists naturally held the most prestigious status, equal to that of the average minor Sect Leader of the Sect Leader Mansion.

The Great Mighty God King’s cultivation level was only mid-rank God King Realm; he was self-aware enough to know that even the initial-rank God King Realm alchemists ignored him, turning to the two high-rank God King Realm alchemists would merely be self-humiliation.

"Forget it, I have no interaction with them, asking is useless."

The Great Mighty God King waved his hand, rather disheartened.

If Fang Bai hadn’t already signed up for the Dan Master Competition, he might have turned around and left.

"Great Mighty God King, don’t be discouraged, let’s wait and maybe there will be a turn of events."

Fang Bai comforted, his gaze resting on the two high-rank God King Realm alchemists, thinking that if he could persuade them to refine the Creation Pill for the Great Mighty God King, that would be ideal.

He also knew that it wasn’t easy to engage those two high-rank God King Realm alchemists, so he pondered various strategies with a quick mind.

The next day, the most anticipated Dan Master Competition by alchemists commenced.

"According to the old rules, the first day’s Dan Master Competition begins among the Divine Venerable Realm alchemists. Those who have signed up, please go to the Divine Crystal Platform in the center of the square with your names on it and sit down."

A high-rank God King Realm alchemist responsible for hosting this year’s Dan Master Competition said with a smile.

Following this, hundreds of Divine Venerable Realm alchemists walked to the center of the square, found their names written on the Divine Crystal Platforms, and sat down cross-legged there.

"This year’s Dan Master Competition is not much different from past ones..."

Another high-rank God King Realm alchemist hosting the competition cleared his throat and said loudly, "In three days’ time, refine a batch of Divine Venerable Realm Marrow Cleansing Pill. We will select three winners based on the duration of alchemy, the rate of successful pill formation, and the quality of the Divine Elixir."

Upon hearing this, hundreds of Divine Venerable Realm alchemists nodded, knowing this was the old rule.

However, refining the Marrow Cleansing Pill is only slightly easier than the Creation Pill, and three days to refine a batch is a bit tight in terms of time, testing their alchemy technique.

Hundreds of Divine Venerable Realm alchemists were tense yet excited, each rubbing their fists, waiting for the high-rank God King Realm alchemist to give the order to begin.

"It seems you are all ready. In that case, let’s begin."

The high-rank God King Realm alchemist who spoke earlier swept his gaze over the hundreds of Divine Venerable Realm alchemists in the center of the square, speaking nonchalantly.

His voice wasn’t loud, yet it clearly reached the ears of every alchemist present.

Thus, hundreds of alchemists either used their palms as pill furnaces or took out their own pill furnaces, and began refining the Divine Venerable Realm Marrow Cleansing Pill.

Those alchemists using their palms as pill furnaces all possessed the wood and fire dual attribute Innate Spiritual Roots, including Fang Bai — there were only three of them.

Yet at the same time, they were the ones receiving the most attention from other alchemists.

Especially the two high-rank God King Realm alchemists hosting the Dan Master Competition, who were watching closely those Divine Venerable Realm alchemists using their palms as pill furnaces.

Although the two high-rank God King Realm alchemists had many disciples, including those with the Innate Spiritual Roots, they still weren’t satisfied.

At this point, their lifespans were more than halfway through, longing to find an exceptionally talented disciple to inherit their legacy, hence they paid extra attention whenever they discovered alchemists with wood and fire dual attribute Innate Spiritual Roots.

Fang Bai’s thoughts and energy at this moment were entirely focused on alchemy, even though he knew those two high-rank God King Realm alchemists were scrutinizing him, he had no spare time to think further.

For Fang Bai, refining the Divine Venerable Realm Marrow Cleansing Pill was easy, and especially in terms of alchemy duration and pill formation rate, he was confident he could surpass other alchemists.

His only weakness was being limited by his cultivation level, making the quality of his Marrow Cleansing Pill possibly inferior to those refined by high-rank Divine Venerable Realm alchemists.

Nevertheless, he was still very confident about entering the top three.

After all, among the three main factors for selecting the top three, he was certainly leading in two.

"Fang Bai, you must do your best!"

Rongrong’s voice reached Fang Bai’s ears.

He grinned at Rongrong, making a victory gesture.

Although Rongrong couldn’t understand his gesture, she saw the absolute confidence in his smile.

The Great Mighty God King was observant and careful, closely watching the two high-rank God King Realm powerhouses, seeing their gaze fixed upon Fang Bai and the other two dual attribute Innate Spiritual Roots alchemists, revealing an expression of eagerness for talent, his mind suddenly stirred.

"This kid participating in the Dan Master Competition surely isn’t just to enter the Herbal Valley..."

The Great Mighty God King muttered to himself as he watched Fang Bai’s figure.
