C945 Inauguration of the Regal Pill Ceremony
In the blink of an eye, more than ten days passed.
For the past dozen days, Nie Zhen did not leave his room and remained in closed-door cultivation.
During this period of time, including Yuan Xueyi, there were a few people who came to visit a few times. However, all of them were not able to see the guests because of Nie Zhen's continuous closed door training.
Nie Zhen finally finished his closed door cultivation when he got close to the opening of the Danhwa Grand Gathering.
This time, although Nie Zhen did not manage to break through Royal Stage during his closed door cultivation, he had taken a big step on the way to Royal Stage.
"Dong, dong, dong …" The moment Nie Zhen finished his closed door training, he heard a series of knocks from outside the door.
"Master Nie, if you still don't come out, the Danhwa Grand Gathering will begin … If you miss it, don't blame me for not informing you! " At this moment, Yuan Xueyi's voice could be heard.
Seeing Nie Zhen open the door, Yuan Xueyi glared at Nie Zhen and said unhappily, "Oh …" Master Nie is truly a busy man, coming to our Hundred Blossom Holy Land for so long and not revealing anything. If it wasn't for the event opening, I'm afraid you'd have to continue your closed doors cultivation, right? "
Nie Zhen knew Yuan Xueyi had some prejudice against him, so he didn't feel anything strange about her attitude. He immediately said lightly, "Senior Sister Yuan, please forgive me. I was enlightened for a while, that's why I went into closed door cultivation."
"I'm afraid this isn't just a temporary gesture..." Yuan Xueyi rolled her eyes at Nie Zhen, and after muttering to herself in a low voice, she said to Nie Zhen: "Let's go, today is the Danhwa Grand Gathering. Previously, when you were in closed door training, the personnel of our Hundred Blossom Sacred Grounds could not contact you, so I have to trouble you to come personally. Follow me."
"I'm so sorry …" Nie Zhen laughed bitterly, then flew with Yuan Xueyi towards the Danhwa Grand Gathering's arena.
"This place is where Danhwa Grand Gathering will compete. Hurry up and hand it over, you're the last one here."
When Yuan Xueyi and Nie Zhen arrived in the sky above the competition venue, Yuan Xueyi shot a glance at Nie Zhen and then landed on the platform.
At this moment, Nie Zhen saw the entire Danhwa Grand Gathering competition grounds. It was an incomparably huge training field, which was bustling with over forty alchemists, including Yuan Xueyi, all of them were the Pill Emperor, and the entire Tianji Island was probably the most powerful pill refining technique.
As for the surroundings of the venue, it was even more packed with spectators. Nie Zhen swept his gaze around, but could not find the end, as he felt that there were millions of spectators, all of them here to watch the Danhwa Grand Gathering.
Nie Zhen quickly landed on the stage. At this time, the host of Danhwa Grand Gathering shouted loudly towards Nie Zhen: "Everyone, the last contestant is already in position! This person was the representative of Origin Opening Holy Land, Master Nie Zhen! But according to the competition rules, do you still wish for Master Nie to show your Origin Opening Holy Land's keepsake? "
Without saying anything, Nie Zhen took out the Jade Token from Origin Opening Holy Land and indicated towards the host.
"It really is Great Master Nie Zhen!" Nice to meet you! Alright, now that the Danhwa Grand Gathering is only held once every hundred years, it will officially begin! "
With the host's announcement, over a million people in the audience burst into thunderous applause.
"Ah... This year's Danhwa Grand Gathering was not bad. Normally, there would only be twenty to thirty Pill Emperor Masters, but this year, there were actually more than forty! "It seems like some of the hidden Pill Emperors have been alerted this time as well."
"Not only that, even the so-called youngest Pill Emperor, Great Master Yuan Xueyi, is participating in the competition. It seems like it will be a fierce struggle between two evenly matched opponents!"
"The youngest? Didn't you see that Nie Zhen over there? He's at most twenty years old. Who's younger than he is? "
"Who is this Nie Zhen?" "I've never heard of this person before …"
"I heard that he is the Pill Emperor who has appeared on behalf of the Origin Opening Holy Land. I haven't heard of him before. Maybe the Origin Opening Holy Land is deliberately hiding his information?"
"Ah, Origin Opening Holy Land... I never heard that someone who specializes in alchemy has appeared in Origin Opening Holy Land … Even their own pill refiners are not at the same level as the Pill Emperor. Nie Zhen couldn't have randomly found someone with Origin Opening Holy Land, right? "
"Impossible …" Origin Opening Holy Land cannot afford to lose to such a person, I think that even if Nie Zhen cannot win the championship, he at least has some skills, if not Origin Opening Holy Land will be like the past few sessions where no one will be sent out. "
There were discussions about the competition. Amongst them, there were also discussions about Nie Zhen, a newbie who was never famous before.
Because there were over a million people, they couldn't completely calm down. The Hundred Blossom Holy Lands had even sent out a group of masters to lay out a silent array around the alchemy center to ensure that everyone on the stage would be able to refine pills peacefully.
At this moment, the apothecaries started to greet him.
"Old He, I've seen you again this year!" "I obtained an ancient pill recipe over ten years ago, I might not lose to you this time."
"Tch!" "So what if it's an ancient pill formula? You will still lose to me this time!"0
"Elder Wan Mu, I believe that you have won the championship this time around …" At this moment, many of the alchemists spoke to the old man in the middle.
Elder Mo laughed. "Not necessarily. Xue Yi has received my true teachings and is being nurtured by Holy Lord with all her might. Her alchemy skills are no longer inferior to mine. I think this time, the champion will be this girl's …"
"Hahaha... "Then we'll have to call Xue Yi's niece as Master Xue Yi from now on, haha …"
From their conversation, Nie Zhen found out that this elder called Elder Wangmu was the strongest cultivator in the Hundred Flowers Holy Land's Alchemy Dao. He had won the championships many times in the past.
As for Yuan Xueyi, she was obviously a youth that the Hundred Blossom Holy Lands had groomed with all their might. Her alchemy skills were no longer any weaker than Elder Wanmu.
However, since Nie Zhen didn't know the people present and most of them didn't know Nie Zhen, there weren't many people talking to Nie Zhen at the moment. At most, they only greeted each other when they met and became familiar with each other.
However, before long, Nie Zhen noticed that other than himself, there was also an old man in a black robe standing at the corner of the arena. This old man was even more lonely than him.
At the very least, he had some pill emperors who would greet him, but he didn't even bother to walk over to them. In fact, all of the pill emperors present feared that he might be able to avoid them.
This person has a nickname, he is called Pill Demon, and when he obtained this nickname he is still smug, thus he called himself Elder Dan Mo, an extremely eccentric guy with an extremely sinister personality. As a pill refiner, he is actually obsessed with refining all kinds of poison pills, and even did not hesitate to use other people's lives to test the effects of the pills, thus he was rejected by all the other pill refiners in Tianji Island.
At this moment, Yuan Xueyi slowly walked towards Nie Zhen and whispered to him.
