Daily life of slaying demons in the government

"Master Yang, I have heard of this Dan Competition. But because it is a competition between big forces, a scum like me has never participated. But I heard that it is very dangerous with twists and turns, so you have to be careful!"

Zeng Sanming's face was solemn. He didn't think that Li Xianjun came to Yang Qian to let Yang Qian take advantage of him, and there must be something complicated going on.

While flipping through the book in his hand, Yang Qian asked Zeng Sanming with great interest, "What danger? Tell me about it."

"Master Yang. The Immortal Lord of Qingtian City's defense force is a disciple of the Immortal Lord Shaking the Earth. Although he is also a top force in the middle domain, he is on the sidelines among all the top forces. He usually does not act tough.

This Qingtian City seems to be under the control of Li Xianjun, but in fact, Li Xianjun's words often do not count. There are too many aspects that need to be weighed. My friends in several pharmacies that I often visit here all say privately that the entry and exit of medicinal materials are often blocked, and there are always strong people from other places who interfere, and Qingtian City often avoids them.

So Master Yang, Danbi must not be too aggressive, otherwise Qingtian City will definitely not be able to protect you."

Yang Qian was quite surprised to hear this. Zeng Sanming, who often called himself a "scumbag", actually knew such in-depth information about Qingtian City. This was not something that could be obtained simply by talking.

"You know a lot, don't you?"

"Hey, Master Yang, since you are loyal and didn't leave me, I, Old Zeng, will never go to waste with you."

"Then how do you think we should deal with it?"

"Xiao Yao thinks that we can just muddle through. There's no need to put in too much effort. Didn't the Black Iron Rhino say that? Just take it one round at a time. It'll be fine as long as you can make sure you don't end up at the bottom."

Yang Qian nodded, but didn't say yes or no. Although he agreed with Zeng Sanming's opinion, he would not do it. The reason was simple, that is, what he wanted was not something he could get easily. If he wanted to get something from the Immortal Lord of Qingtian City, he would definitely not be able to do it without some real skills.

Seeing Yang Qian not speaking, Zeng Sanming knew that Yang Qian must have other plans. He did not say much, bowed and went out to continue to gather information. There were still two months before Danbi, and he said he would gather more detailed information and come back.

Before leaving, Yang Qian called Zeng Sanming and took out a lot of fairy stones from his storage bag and handed them to him.

"Take what you have looted from Tianmen Hall. It will be easier for you to gather information with these things in hand."

"Thank you, Master Yang, for your trust. I will do my best!"

After Zeng Sanming left, Yang Qian continued to look through the book in his hand in the yard. This book looked quite old, and the contents on it were even stained. I don't know how many demon cultivators have flipped through it.

It was called Danbi, but in fact, just from the description in this booklet, it could be seen that the intensity of the fight was no less than the ring fight that Yang Qian had participated in in Fengbo City. Even though there would not be a real sword-and-gun collision with the opponent, there would still be dangerous confrontations.

Because the alchemy competition is not about each alchemist bringing a pill to be judged and then the winner is selected. Instead, a group of alchemists directly refine pills together face to face in one place and space!
It sounds like nothing, but Yang Qian knows how deep the water is.

All the pills refined are the same, how to distinguish the good from the bad?

In addition to quality, the amount of pills produced and the length of time it takes to refine them are also important. This forces the alchemist to face a "speed race" issue.

At the same time, with so many alchemists gathered together, how could they honestly refine their own medicines? There would inevitably be countless small movements. Such as mana interference, spell interference, or direct alchemy fire conflict, etc. These small movements often bring big problems. At the very least, the furnace explodes and the alchemy is destroyed.

In severe cases, the Dan fire will flow backwards and damage the meridians and the soul.

Moreover, this is not a killing competition in the ring. No one nearby can help resist or predict. The alchemist can only rely on himself to find ways to overcome and fight back.

Yang Qian was even sure that there were definitely some low-class alchemists among these alchemists who had average alchemy skills but used all kinds of insidious tricks, and this kind of alchemist was undoubtedly the most difficult to deal with among the alchemists.

Yang Qian was alert, but not worried. His alchemy didn't consume much of his soul. The experience panel gave him the best and simplest alchemy methods, which were very resistant to interference. His speed was also much faster than that of ordinary alchemists. Not to mention the amount of pills he produced, which was top-notch as was the quality.

Therefore, Yang Qian’s main consideration was the means of counterattack.

Only by giving and taking can people know that you are not someone to be trifled with. Otherwise, it will be troublesome if they treat you as a pushover.

So Yang Qian came up with some methods according to his own ideas, which he thought were pretty good.

A few days later, Yang Qian stopped thinking about the pill competition and calmed down to continue to seize the good fortune of heaven and earth to strengthen his body in preparation for the next deduction of the Immortal Sutra. He also continued to deduce his fate, wanting to find out more about the opportunities that might appear in Qingtian City.

Zeng Sanming would come back every once in a while and tell Yang Qian all the news he had found out outside.

"Master Yang, all the alchemists who are going to participate in the alchemy competition are listed above. Please take a look."

Zeng Sanming put in a lot of effort and spent a lot of time to get the news to the end.

Not only did he figure out the previous wins and losses, he also got most of the names of the alchemists who came to participate in the alchemy competition this year, including the styles of various forces in the previous alchemy competitions.

"Tsk, Qingtian City has been ranked second to last in dozens of alchemy competitions? And the alchemists were injured or killed every time?
No wonder they came to me so easily and asked me to help them. Is it because no other alchemist is willing to help them?
Moreover, the second-to-last ranking meant that they would not be allocated many medicinal materials after each alchemy competition. This meant that they did not have many medicinal materials to provide to the alchemists. It would be strange if this vicious cycle did not become weaker."

"Master Yang is right, so you must be more careful."

"Are you sure this is the recipe for the pill for this year's competition?" Yang Qian looked at the message Zeng Sanming handed over, which had the words "Xiao Gu Dan" written on it. This was a very rare Yin Dan among Yin Dan, and it was also a unique pill that could be used as a poison pill.

Normally, let alone being sold in alchemy shops, many people probably have never even heard of it.

The key point is that Zeng Sanming knew all this news, so why didn't Qingtian City pass on any information to him?
"Don't worry, Master Yang. I got this through a special channel. I spent a lot of money on it, so it must be correct. You can take the time to familiarize yourself with the refining method of this kind of medicine, and then you will be able to pass the first round smoothly."

Yang Qian smiled and nodded, then asked, "What about the other alchemist in Qingtian City? Any news?"

"Yes, it is said to be a rat demon, a disciple of Li Xianjun. In the previous few times, it was this demon who helped Li Xianjun to hold the scene. It is known as the number one alchemist in Qingtian City." (End of this chapter)
