Chapter 672

Speaking of this, Ye Chong thought of the precious medicinal ingredients he had failed to gather these past days.

Immediately, he looked toward Lin Feng and said: "Of course, when the competitors search for medicinal ingredients inside the Pill Realm, even if they gather some they need, the Pill Tower generally won't say anything."

Upon hearing that, Lin Feng lightly nodded.

The meaning of the former, he naturally understood clearly in his heart.

It was to let him run around more in the Pill Realm to gather enough materials for the Yun Tian Reverse Fate Pill.

Although he had now decided to refine the Bodhi Pill, when entering the Pill Realm he still prepared to gather enough materials for the Yun Tian Reverse Fate Pill.

This way, if he fails to refine the Bodhi Pill later at the Pill Assembly,

he could still change direction and refine the Yun Tian Reverse Fate Pill, so he wouldn't be forced to refine a lower-grade pill.

"Right, matters that occur inside the Pill Realm, the Pill Tower generally does not intervene. Therefore, as long as one does things without anyone knowing, no one will find out. So Lin Feng, when you enter the Pill Realm, you must pay extra attention to Xin Lan, after all her strength is still low, making it hard for her to deal with some stronger alchemists."

Speaking further, Ye Chong looked with some worry at his own granddaughter.

However, although he was very worried in his heart, he did not stop Ye Xinlan from participating.

Although this selection of the Pill Assembly is somewhat harsh, the real situation on the Qi Continent is far more merciless than the competition.

If one does not even dare to try such an assessment, then in the future it will certainly be difficult to establish a foothold on the continent.

"Elder, rest assured, Xin Lan is my wife; I will protect her well."

Lin Feng, upon hearing that, immediately nodded and said firmly.

After all, Xin Lan is his wife; even if the former didn't say so, he would spare no effort to protect her safety.

As for Xin Lan, upon hearing the former's words, her pretty face immediately showed a happy smile.

Afterwards, she slipped into Lin Feng's embrace, her jade nose twitching slightly as she quietly inhaled his scent.

"Boom!"

At this very moment, a heavy bell toll suddenly rang out across heaven and earth.

And as the bell toll spread grandly across this extremely vast plaza,

even the earth-shaking clamor raised by the myriad competitors was suppressed by it.

Immediately, the crowd on the plaza all fell silent.

and their gazes all fixed upon the eastern side of the plaza, that towering like a tower Shi Tai.

There, the high-level officials of the Pill Tower would appear.

And not long after the bell toll sounded, faint tearing‑wind noises suddenly rang out from the horizon.

The next moment, the space on that Shi Tai began to distort abruptly.

Then, a dozen or so figures gradually appeared before everyone's eyes.

As soon as these people appeared, the originally noisy plaza instantly fell silent.

And when those people appeared, Lin Feng's gaze swiftly swept over them.

Most of them, Lin Feng did not recognize.

But having been in the Pill Tower for so long, he also had some understanding of certain things there.

From their attire, Lin Feng knew they were all elders of the Pill Tower's outer division.

As for the three among those elders, they were his enemies, the Three Giants of the Pill Tower!

However, although Lin Feng would love to kill those three and refine their souls,

but the reputation of the Pill Tower's Three Giants on the Zhongzhou Continent is indeed truly renowned.

Therefore, for most alchemists, these three usually exist only as legendary figures.

Now that they have suddenly appeared, it gives the people below a feeling of disbelief.

In an instant, countless gazes filled with admiration from the endless sea of people on the plaza converged upon these three individuals.

"Hehe, I am Xuan Kongzi, the president of the Pill Tower; on behalf of the Pill Tower, I welcome all alchemists who have come here!"

After appearing on this Shi Tai, the white‑haired Xuan Kongzi immediately stepped forward, his gentle voice suddenly ringing out slowly in everyone's ears.

And as soon as he spoke, the air above the plaza instantly fell utterly silent.

Seeing this, Xuan Kongzi slightly nodded, then said calmly: "Everyone, for the Pill Assembly you have endured hardship and traveled ten thousand miles to reach Shengdan City; since that is the case, I will not waste your time here."

"This session of the Pill Assembly, just as before, is divided into three steps; the first checkpoint is called the Illusory Realm."

Subsequently, what Xuan Kongzi said was basically the same as what Ye Chong had said.

Obviously, this method has been used by the Pill Tower for a long time, becoming the standard format for generations of Pill Assemblies.

"As long as one passes these three selections, the final victor will become the champion of this Pill Assembly!"

Having said that, Xuan Kongzi gazed at the sea of people stirred slightly by the words "champion," then smiled faintly: "This session's champion, as before, will be able to obtain the quota as a candidate for the Pill Tower's giants."

"However, this session's prize, for those alchemists lacking a way to enhance their soul power, is excellent; it is a volume of low‑level Earth Tier ancient soul cultivation method!"

"Whoa!"

Xuan Kongzi's words caused the dense crowd below to instantly erupt in an astonishing clamor.

Countless alchemists who knew that soul‑cultivation technique saw their eyes turn blood‑red at that moment.

After all, each realm of soul power is worlds apart.

The latter realm holds an absolute advantage over the former.

But the consequence is that for them to raise their soul by even one realm, they must pay a tremendous price.

Therefore, the chance of breakthrough is also extremely small.

But if they could obtain that volume of ancient soul‑cultivation method,

then the possibility of such a breakthrough would be magnified countless times!

Therefore, this volume of soul‑cultivation method is undoubtedly possessed of a deadly attraction for those alchemists who know of its existence!

Even Lin Feng, upon hearing the words "low‑level Earth Tier soul cultivation method," had his eyes light up.

Although he already had a soul-cultivation technique of the same level, this kind of soul-refining method was already close to being lost before him.

Even among those ancient races, it is rarely seen.

From this we can see how rare and precious this thing is.

Even if he doesn't use it, giving it to his little family as a collection would be superb!

And Xuan Kongzi on the high platform suddenly lifted his head and glanced at the sky.

After seeing that the time was about right, he immediately flicked his sleeve.

An invisible wave spread out in an instant, striking the gray void.

In an instant, the strange heaven and earth again rang with a long bell toll.

"The time has come; all participants of rank five and above, enter the first stage of the Pill Assembly, the Soul Illusion Realm!"
