Emperor Zhu Tian

Although Qi Tianyu had defeated Qi Haoran in the Family Competition with the strength of a Vein Spirit, Gao Sheng did not think so, because he was a late stage Advanced Warrior, and could be considered a top-notch expert in the entire Nanyang Kingdom.

Right now, his entire Qi Family was under Qi Kun's control. He was Qi Haoran's cousin uncle, so he did not even put Qi Tianyu, the crown prince, in his eyes.

The other guards stood to the side and watched the show. These guards said that they were just guard dogs of Qi Family, and that their positions were not high. Now that their leader was provoking the crown prince, they were naturally excited.

"I told you, you deserve to die!"

Qi Tianyu was expressionless as he unsheathed the fourth grade Battle-Sword at his waist, revealing its sharpness.

"Fourth-grade battle sword! It's really a good sword! Second Young Master, why don't you lend it to me to play for a few days! "

Seeing this, Gao Sheng was not only unafraid, but his eyes were burning with greed.

If he could obtain this fourth grade battle sword, he might even be able to leap to become a top class expert of the Nanyang Kingdom, or even be able to contend against them.

"I'm just afraid that you won't live to play!"

Qi Tianyu's expression was cold as the Sword-light reflected the scene of dawn.

The first move of the Great Sun Sword Art only had the power of the Mastery Stage.

"Haha, I've heard that you cultivated a martial skill of unknown origin. Since it's like that, I'll give it a try."

Gao Sheng laughed out loud, because he could easily endure this move.

"Thousand Refined Slash!"

This was an elementary level Human-rank martial skill that could amplify one's strength, and had already been cultivated by Gao Sheng to the Mastery Stage.

Advanced late stage martial artists had a strength of at least 3000 jins. This Thousand Meteor Slash could double the strength when practiced to the Large Success Stage.

Thus, he was indeed able to easily receive Qi Tianyu's attack.

"I heard that Qi Tianyu relied on this move to defeat Eldest Young Master, looks like he's only mediocre."

"That's because Eldest Young Master hasn't been cultivating for too long, and now that it's Captain Gao who's done it, this move of his won't work at all."

The guards beside him shook their heads, sneering from time to time.

"Second Young Master, you should just use the power of your Sword Spirit. Such a spar is too boring."

Gao Sheng stood there arrogantly, his face full of ridicule.

"As you wish!"

Qi Tianyu's expression did not change, and he suddenly changed the direction of his sword.

"Haha, that's more like it. However, there's still a long way to go before you can kill me …"

However, Gao Sheng only smiled disdainfully. Although he was somewhat surprised at the power of the Perfection Stage martial skill, he felt that he could still calmly accept it.

However, in the next moment, Gao Sheng's expression changed, because the battle sword in Qi Tianyu's hand had released a nine foot long Sword Qi, and the overflowing imposing aura made him feel like suffocating.

"How can he be this strong!?" High Leveled Martial Cultivator... "

Gao Sheng's face was filled with shock as he roared in rage, unleashing his full strength.

He felt that if he couldn't handle this move, he would most likely die.

However, that yellow Sword Qi seemed to be solid, cutting through iron like mud, and the scene of the red sun breaking through dawn broke through his Thousand Python Slash, as well as the Third Grade Battle Weapon in his hands.

"Pfft!"

Gao Sheng vomited fresh blood as he flew backwards like a rag doll.

"To think you're even the captain of Guard, you're too weak."

Qi Tianyu shook his head, if he did not grab hold of the Sword Qi at the critical moment, with that sword just now, he would have been able to split Gao Sheng into two.

However, he did not want to take the life of such a small character. Furthermore, he had his young sister by his side. It was not suitable for him to make this scene too bloody and brutal.

"You!"

Gao Sheng was in a panic as he coughed out blood and fainted.

"Hurry up and carry him away."

Qi Tianyu indifferently swept his gaze over the guards.

"Yes, yes …"

The guards were all silent, their eyes filled with fear.

Was this still the good-for-nothing heir they knew? Even the master in their eyes had almost been hacked to death by a sword.

"Ah Yun, be good and stay home to recuperate. Big brother will go out for a while to bring you back some good food."

After the swelling on his sister's wrist subsided, Qi Tianyu smiled and said.

"En, big brother, I want to eat candied fruits."

The little girl was very sensible, but her eyes were shining.

"Good!" Big brother will definitely buy you lots and lots of candied fruits. "

Qi Tianyu smiled lovingly.

After what had happened, the clan guards no longer dared to stop them. Instead, they were all in awe of them.

This was a world where the strong were respected. The strength that Qi Tianyu had displayed had stunned them.

Pill And Artifact Tower was a large power within the Upper Firmament Realm.

To warriors, other than their own cultivation, Pill and weapons were extremely important.

Pill s have such miraculous effects as increasing cultivation, healing, and so on. As for weapons, they can directly increase a warrior's combat strength.

Because of this, alchemists and blacksmiths held very high positions in the entire Upper Firmament Realm.

And such a distinguished group of people had gathered within the Pill And Artifact Tower, as well as a very extraordinary group of people.

Pill And Artifact Tower were all over the place, and even a small border nation like Nanyang Kingdom had a sub-tower.

The Pill And Artifact Tower was very lively, and an endless stream of warriors came to ask for medicine.

Qi Tianyu sold the remaining five high levelled Body Tempering Pill, obtaining five thousand gold taels.

Gold and silver were the currency used by martial artists in the mortal world. The ratio was one to one hundred.

Body Tempering Pill s were extremely expensive, one primary Body Tempering Pill for ten gold, and one intermediate Body Tempering Pill for a hundred gold.

And a high level Body Tempering Pill, was as high as a thousand gold liangs.

Even a prominent family like Qi Family only had a yearly income of fifty thousand gold.

"Fortunately, all of the Foundation Building Pill here have the required medicinal ingredients, so I won't be in trouble."

Qi Tianyu took a walk around the medicinal herb area to filter out the medicinal ingredients he needed.

In Qi Tianyu's era, the first realm of martial arts was Body Refinement, usually using Foundation Building Pill. It could build a solid foundation for body refiners.

Compared to the current Body Tempering Pill, the effect was countless times stronger.

This was because any warrior who used Foundation Building Pill would at least have the strength of ten thousand Jin during the body refining stage.

Some peerless geniuses, when their bodies were at the perfection stage, could even reach a strength of 100,000 pounds.

What a terrifying disparity this was!

Qi Tianyu realized that, with today's Upper Firmament Realm, the way of cultivation had probably declined.

"With Hei Xuan dominating the world and establishing Heavenly Emperor Palace in the nine heavens, logically speaking, the cultivation of Upper Firmament Realm should be more and more flourishing …"

Qi Tianyu frowned.

"I need a pill refining room!"

After purchasing three servings of Foundation Building Pill s, which cost him more than three thousand gold, Qi Tianyu rented a pill refining room.

Pill And Artifact Tower could be rented out as a pill refining room. After all, pill furnaces were extremely precious, and many low level alchemists might not even have one.

The alchemy lab here was divided into four grades. The higher the grade, the higher the quality of the furnace and the higher the probability of the pill forming.

The refining room was the same.

But Qi Tianyu only rented the most inferior grade one pill refining room. Firstly, he had confidence in himself, and secondly, the rent was too expensive.

A Tier 1 Pill Refining Room required five hundred gold taels every hour, while a Tier 2 Pill Refining Room required a thousand gold taels.

However, concocting pills usually took a few hours.

"I have to get a cauldron for concocting pills as soon as possible. This way, concocting pills in the future will be much more convenient."

Under the guidance of the servant, Qi Tianyu entered the pill refining room and started to organize the ingredients.

Refining pills was a delicate task. One had to be prepared to the best of their abilities.

The pill furnace was only one grade, so it was naturally useless in Great Emperor Zhu Tian's eyes, but he could only use it now.

After finishing his preparations, Qi Tianyu immediately began to concoct pills, switching on the controls on the pill furnace, and flames sprung out from within.

Of course, refining pills required flames. Underneath the Pill And Artifact Tower, there was a Pyretic Pulse that connected to every pill furnace.

As stalks of medicinal herbs were thrown into the furnace, Qi Tianyu focused all his attention on controlling the size of the flames, slowly refining them.

This was a long process, and the requirement for spiritual force was extremely high.

Even though Qi Tianyu had a lot of experience, it was still difficult for him right now.

"If I can condense a fire Vein Spirit, then I can do twice the work with half the effort!"

Qi Tianyu sighed inwardly. The Vein Spirit of fire was the key to becoming a pill refiner and refiner. It allowed one to control the power of fire delicately.

Otherwise, no matter how good he was at it, he would only be considered as an apprentice.

Foundation Building Pill, on the other hand, could only be refined by true alchemists.

In other words, Qi Tianyu relied on his strong mental power and rich experience to refine Foundation Building Pill using his disciple level methods.

Normally, without a fire Vein Spirit, it would be difficult to control the fire in the furnace.

It was almost impossible for a Apprentice level Alchemist to refine a Pill, unless they had extremely good luck or had an abnormal soul.

"Looks like I'll have to start training my fire attribute martial arts. As long as I condense the Fire Vein Spirit, I can become a true alchemist and refine even better Pill."

Qi Tianyu thought.

In theory, warriors could freely form different types of Vein Spirit.

However, this required extremely strong talent and there was also time. Normally, it would take at least a few years to master a martial skill.

The life of a warrior was limited. In order to reach a higher level, most warriors would only choose to condense one kind of Vein Spirit.

Only those with exceptional talent and confidence in themselves would choose to condense multiple Vein Spirit.

Anyone who could form two Vein Spirit would definitely be a top-notch genius. Usually, they would only appear in sects and big families.

To be able to condense three types, that could be considered peerless. Most likely, only the Four Great Empires and Capital had one.

As for even more of them, they were unrivaled monsters, and there were probably not even a few of them in the entire Upper Firmament Realm.

On the other hand, Qi Tianyu still wanted to condense Fire Vein Spirit s and progress towards being an alchemist.

This was because the dao of alchemy required an extremely high talent. This was also the reason why alchemists and blacksmiths were so rare.

According to the Foundation Building Pill's medicine formula, Qi Tianyu carried out the process in an orderly manner. Every step he took had to be accurate, or everything would be for naught.

"Buzz!"

Finally, an hour later, a burst of fragrance came from the pill furnace.

Just one round of concocting was enough for Foundation Building Pill. If the alchemist with Pill And Artifact Tower saw this, his jaw would definitely drop down in shock.

This was because even a true alchemist would find it difficult to form a pill in a single attempt. Only a Zongshi realm expert would be able to do so.

However, it was unimaginable for Qi Tianyu to use such clumsy, Apprentice level methods to do this.

"Only one pill has formed. This body is too weak …"

But Qi Tianyu frowned, he was not satisfied with the result.

This was because even though this portion could form nine pills, there was only one.

In the end, it was because his current cultivation level was too low and without the help of the fire Vein Spirit, most of the medicinal strength of the ingredients would be lost in the process of refinement.

To be able to form a pill was already quite impressive.

Following that, Qi Tianyu spent two hours to refine the remaining two medicinal ingredients and obtained three Foundation Building Pill s.

Mainly because when he was refining the last portion of the medicinal ingredients, Qi Tianyu's feeling got better and better.

After swallowing a Foundation Building Pill, Qi Tianyu quickly circulated the Profound Yellow Spell and completed the refinement process.

"The Foundation Building Pill is the most authentic Body Refinement Pill. My physical strength has increased by at least two folds, and it should be at least one thousand kilograms!"

Qi Tianyu felt the changes in his body and nodded with satisfaction.

The Profound Yellow Spell Body Refinement Scripture was divided into the initial, middle, and late stages. After consuming one Foundation Building Pill, his realm did not change, and he was still at the middle stage of the Refinement Realm.

This Foundation Building Pill had mainly strengthened his foundation, because according to the standards from ten thousand years ago, his physical body's strength was far from sufficient.

Previously, he had forcefully cleared six Mortal Realm meridians, causing his foundation to be weak. If he continued to pursue a breakthrough in his realm, then his future achievements would definitely be very limited.

This was definitely not possible for Qi Tianyu. He was a Great Emperor Zhu Tian, he still wanted to rush into the Unparalleled Dominating Realm, so he had to be the strongest with every step.

When the second Foundation Building Pill went into his stomach, Qi Tianyu felt that the weakness left after he forcefully opened his Martial Veins was being slowly made up.

"Leave the remaining two Foundation Building Pill s, we can go back and start training the third move of the Great Sun Sword Art."

The medicinal strength of the two Foundation Building Pill had not been completely digested, and they needed to be combined with martial skill cultivation to stimulate it.

Just two days ago, he had already mastered the second form of the Great Sun Sword Art, the Sword Spirit had reached the middle level of the Human-rank, and could now start training the third form of the Yang Ruin Like Blood.

Right now, the strength of his fleshly body was at least sixteen thousand kilograms. Most likely, his strength was already enough to completely suppress the High Leveled Martial Cultivator s of the entire Nanyang Kingdom.

"You've used it for four hours. The total rent is two thousand gold taels!"

When he came out to settle the rent, Qi Tianyu helplessly discovered that he still lacked about three hundred silver taels out of the little amount he had left.

He spent an hour concocting pills and another hour refining two Foundation Building Pill.

"How about this, this Foundation Building Pill is for you, you can exchange it for fifty thousand gold."

In the end, Qi Tianyu could only take out a Foundation Building Pill and exchange it for money.

Compared to the price of high level Body Tempering Pill, each and every one of them was worth at least fifty thousand gold taels.

Because Foundation Building Pill were the most authentic body refining Pill, their entire Nanyang Kingdom simply did not have one.

"What?" Fifty thousand gold! Even if there are many fourth stage Pill that can't afford this price, just what lousy beast are you selling this Foundation Building Pill for? You want to sell it for fifty thousand gold, who are you trying to fool! "

The youth in charge of renting immediately glared as he spoke with a sneer on his face.

"Yo!" Isn't this the famous good-for-nothing heir of the Marquis TIanyi Palace? He wants to sell a lousy Pill for fifty thousand gold? "I've really gone crazy thinking about money."

At the same time, a sneer suddenly sounded out from behind Qi Tianyu.

"Liu Zihao?"

Qi Tianyu turned around, his eyes flashing, searching through the memories in his mind for the identity of the person.
