The Extreme Alchemist of the Mighty Cauldron

Chapter 1790: Chapter 1887: Pill Saint Palace, I’m Back

On the grand and majestic flying boat, Fang Lin and fourteen other young Pill Refiners were among them, crossing the sea to the Pill Saint Palace.

Although they had not yet arrived at the Pill Saint Palace, Fang Lin and these individuals were already considered true disciples of the Pill Saint Palace, having the identity of Pill Refiners of the Palace, it could be said to be a step to heaven, distinct from those in the Seventy-Two Seas.

In this era, the Pill Saint Palace was the benchmark of the Alchemy Tao World, the sacred land all Pill Refiners dreamed of, and Pill Refiners from all over the world yearned to become part of it.

The Pill Saint Palace was also the most powerful force of this era, even those hegemonic figures in the Martial Arts World had to be cautious when facing the Pill Saint Palace, fearing to offend it and become the public enemy of the Alchemy Tao World.

It’s imaginable that having the identity of a Pill Saint Palace Pill Refiner is an immense honor for a Pill Refiner, truly a step to heaven is not an exaggeration.

As the person in charge of recruiting disciples in the Seventy-Two Seas this time, Steward Ma stood at the bow of the flying boat, feeling somewhat complicated, occasionally glancing back at these young Pill Refiners selected from the Seventy-Two Seas.

The reason for his complicated feelings was that Steward Ma did not expect that Lin Erdan, who had always performed mediocrely, would actually pass the final examination and become a true disciple of the Pill Saint Palace, which was beyond his expectations.

Steward Ma even suspected whether this guy had been hiding his strength in previous assessments. While there might be an element of luck, luck could not always favor Lin Erdan. Passing the test without any danger this time was definitely not just luck; Lin Erdan must have enough capability to pass the requirements.

Steward Ma still couldn’t quite see eye to eye with Lin Erdan, always feeling that this guy with crafty eyes does not seem to be a good sort.

However, some other young Pill Refiners made Steward Ma quite satisfied, as the few young people he favored passed the examination smoothly and became disciples of the Pill Saint Palace.

For Steward Ma, recruiting disciples in the Seventy-Two Seas wasn’t a tough task; on the contrary, it was a job he had managed to secure with difficulty, something others were envious of.

Although the Seventy-Two Seas is a barren place, Steward Ma recruited fifteen talented disciples this time, tantamount to being a guide for these young people, or to put it simply, like being half a mentor to them.

If these fifteen young Pill Refiners do well at the Pill Saint Palace, then Steward Ma will also gain recognition.

Of course, Steward Ma didn’t expect these young Pill Refiners to achieve significant success at the Pill Saint Palace, where Pill Refining talents are abundant and enumerable.

The young individuals selected from the Seventy-Two Seas are decent, yet there is quite a gap compared to the monstrous talents within the Pill Saint Palace.

Fang Lin gazed into the distance; compared to others, he was relatively calm, not appearing overly excited despite the approaching journey to the Pill Saint Palace.

But if talking about excitement, none on the flying boat was more excited than Fang Lin, only he concealed it well, pressing it deep into his heart.

“Pill Saint Palace, I, Fang Lin, have returned,” Fang Lin silently said in his heart as he looked at the distant skyline.

Cheng Qingyu was also on the flying boat, and she became the top participant in the final assessment, outshining the rest.

Compared to Fang Lin, who barely obtained the last entry, Cheng Qingyu, who relied on her own strength to surpass her peers from the Seventy-Two Seas, was naturally more favored.

However, Cheng Qingyu appeared indifferent; even those who wanted to converse and build connections with her were repelled by her frosty attitude.

Song Xiaorou was also on the flying boat. Among the batch of young Pill Refiners from Ghost Return Island, only she and Fang Lin reached this stage and became disciples of the Pill Saint Palace, while others were eliminated halfway.

If considered closely, Fang Lin wasn’t truly from Ghost Return Island, hence Song Xiaorou was the sole remnant young Pill Refiner from Ghost Return Island in this test.

Song Xiaorou peeked at Fang Lin, feeling joyful in her heart. After all, both had smoothly passed the examination and become disciples of the Pill Saint Palace, implying more time to be spent together in the future.

Song Xiaorou felt somewhat depressed as Lin Erdan’s attitude towards her was rather cold, leaving her hurt and feeling that Lin Erdan was insensible.

What bothered Song Xiaorou more was the woman named Cheng Qingyu. Her female intuition told her that there might be something between Cheng Qingyu and Lin Erdan.

However, Song Xiaorou didn’t question Cheng Qingyu or Lin Erdan, as she didn’t believe Lin Erdan would fancy someone less beautiful than herself like Cheng Qingyu.

····

The journey was smooth with no hindrances, as no one in the world dared to obstruct the flying boat of the Pill Saint Palace, most veer away to avoid even the slightest conflict.

Finally, the flying boat reached the Pill Saint Palace.

From hundreds of miles away, everyone on the flying boat had already seen the magnificent palace floating within the clouds.

“Is this really the Pill Saint Palace?” The young Pill Refiners from the Seventy-Two Seas were dumbfounded, staring blankly ahead.

Steward Ma smiled faintly and said: “Yes, that is where you’ll cultivate and live from now on.”

For these youths from the Seventy-Two Seas, who had never seen such grand and majestic architecture, they were stunned, despite imagining countless times what the Pill Saint Palace would be like, seeing it now exceeded their imagination by far.

“It’s so vast!” a young man exclaimed in shock, soon realizing his loss of decorum and blushing with embarrassment.

But no one paid mind to it, as everyone was immersed in the impact and awe brought by the Pill Saint Palace.

Even Cheng Qingyu was somewhat taken aback by the Pill Saint Palace. Although she considered herself well-informed coming from the future, witnessing the Pill Saint Palace made her realize how ignorant she had been.

“The Pill Saint Palace spans nine thousand miles, all its territories, intruders who ignore warnings will be slain,” Fang Lin murmured, taking a deep breath with a fervent look in his eyes.

Approaching the Pill Saint Palace, a giant cauldron floated before the palace gates, absorbing Universe Spirit Energy, forming the foundation of the Formation.

Fang Lin’s heart surged, everything felt so familiar, giving him a sense of déjà vu.

“Pill Saint Palace, I have returned.”
