Eternal Pill Emperor

Under Zong Qi's guidance, Gu Xuan left the Yingtian Institution. Other than the fact that he could leave the academy within the one month of each year's freshmen assessment, the rest of the time was sealed up, preventing any student from leaving.

Of course, students with Sovereign Level could no longer be considered students. These people were all taken in as disciples by the King Level Expert s within the academy, and were truly groomed by the academy.

As a result, the Sovereign Level students in the academy were rarely seen. The majority of them trained outside the academy, and would only occasionally return to the Yingtian Institution.

As a Elite Student, although Gu Xuan had better treatment than most Sovereign Level students, he could not leave without permission. However, he could leave immediately with Zong Qi accompanying him.

As the pinnacle existence of the empire's alchemy world, Zong Qi's treatment was even better than that of some of the King Level teachers.

Alchemists were divided into nine grades, from the first grade to the Third Grade, they were all low level alchemists. In a small place, these kinds of people could call the wind and summon the rain, and were sought after by countless people. However, they were not rare in the entire empire.

This was because as long as an alchemist reached the first rank, as long as they had the large amount of medicinal pellets they could supply and work hard, they could break through to the Third Grade of alchemist. This also resulted in the first rank Second Grade, where the number of alchemists at these three levels was roughly equal.

From the fourth stage to the fifth stage, they were called the Middle Rank Alchemists. Only a thousand of them were able to step into the fourth stage, and there were only two of them in the entire Great Desolate Empire, who were on the same level as the Emperor.

The Seventh Grade Medicine Refining Master s of the Six Grades were high level alchemists. They were extremely rare existences on the continent, and once they appeared, they would be sought after by countless great powers.

The Eighth Grade alchemists and the Seventh Grade Medicine Refining Master who had comprehended the Pill Dao were all considered the Grandmaster of The Pill Dao s. They were all considered the pinnacle of the Pill Dao, and any one of them were able to establish their own sect.

Originally defined as the only Eighth Grade alchemist in Grandmaster of The Pill Dao, because if one wanted to comprehend the Pill Dao, then one would definitely already be a Eighth Grade alchemist. After all, comprehending the Pill Dao was much more difficult than raising one's Soul Power.

However, the rise of a generation of Pill Emperor broke this definition. When he was comprehending the Pill Dao in Seventh Grade Medicine Refining Master, he did not break through to become a Eighth Grade Alchemist, which caused an uproar in the alchemist world. It was obvious that he did not understand what happened to Gu Xuan.

It was only until Gu Xuan's good friend, Nan Gong Chen asked again did the former reveal the truth. Even though he had comprehended the Pill Dao, he had not finished accumulating it, so he could only stay at the Seventh Grade.

Everyone who refined pills knew that cultivating the soul was easy, and comprehending the Dao was difficult. However, Gu Xuan had done the opposite, as he comprehended the most difficult Dao. In the end, the so-called simplest method of improving the soul was not completed yet, which was simply too heaven-defying.

Therefore, the Pill Refining World had changed the rules for Gu Xuan and placed the Seventh Grade Medicine Refining Master who had comprehended the Pill Dao in the Grandmaster of The Pill Dao.

Grandmaster of The Pill Dao was a Grandmaster after all, but generally people who had comprehended Pill Dao would only be at the Eighth Grade rank. It was already normal for Eighth Grade alchemists to be called Grandmaster of The Pill Dao, and it wasn't until the appearance of the abnormal Pill Emperor that the knowledge of alchemists was broken.

After Gu Xuan's death, no one else was able to comprehend the Pill Dao at the Seventh Grade realm, but this distinction was still retained. In a hundred years, things had changed for all eternity, and the names of the heaven's pride experts back then had long been left behind in history.

Of course, above the Eighth Grade alchemist, there was still the legendary Grade Nine Martial Saint alchemist.

This kind of alchemist was even rarer than Seventh Grade Medicine Refining Master who had comprehended Pill Dao. After all, there were still people who had comprehended Pill Dao, and a Grade Nine Martial Saint alchemist was just a legend.

No one had ever seen or heard of such an alchemist, much less seen a Grade Nine Martial Saint appearing in this world.

However, this grade still existed. Moreover, it was so detailed that no one could doubt it.

Gu Xuan could only sigh at this point. There were too many unfathomable things in this world, such as his own rebirth and the Evil Spirit True Fire's mission. There were too many unfathomable things.

Regarding these things that surpassed his knowledge, Gu Xuan could not do anything about it. The only thing he could do was to continuously make himself stronger and dictate his own fate.

"Young Master Xuan, this is the Holy City." The two of them walked in front of a tall and imposing city as Zong Qi introduced them.

Gu Xuan pointed to the large words "Holy City" at the front of the city, and said: "I think I'm not blind yet."

"Cough, cough!"

Zong Qi's face revealed a look of awkwardness, he knew that he was speaking nonsense, but all the way here, Gu Xuan did not say anything, he was only trying to get closer to Gu Xuan with these words.

He, as a fourth stage alchemist, could call the wind and summon the rain within the Great Desolate Empire, but in front of Gu Xuan, he did not feel like he existed at all.

"Right." Gu Xuan raised his eyebrows, and looked at Zong Qi with a smile that was not really a smile: "I really like the name Young Master Xuan, you can call me Young Master Xuan from now on."

"Heh heh." Zong Qi laughed complacently, his face was full of joy, if anyone else saw this scene, they would be so shocked that their jaws would drop.

Zong Qi, who was standing at the peak of the Great Desolate Empire, actually revealed a joyous expression as if a child being praised, which was a little unbelievable.

The two of them entered the Sacred City, went straight to the center, and arrived at the Hall of Healing.

The Hall of Healing was different from the Pill Dao Pavilion. The Pill Dao Pavilion was merely Zong Qi's personal pill cultivating grounds. At most, there would be some servants and students inside, so it could not be considered as a large place.

However, the Hall of Healing was different. The latter was the headquarters of all the alchemists, and was the person in charge of all the alchemists in the Great Desolate Empire.

Great Desolate Empire of 3,590 countries. Countless alchemists were inextricably linked to Hall of Healing, so the Hall of Healing Headquarters was practically a region of its own, and was not one bit inferior to the imperial palace.

"Master Zong Qi!"

When the disciple guarding the door saw Zong Qi, he shivered. Grade Four Alchemist, that was a person that was on the same level as the Hall Master of the Hall of Healing.

As the two of them walked through the Hall of Healing gate, Zong Qi said: "Young Master Xuan, Hall of Healing is divided into three parts, one is for alchemists to refine pellets, the second part is where pellets are to be auctioned for exchange, the third part is for us to participate in the Pill Dao Gathering Assembly, it is just that you need to take the examination first."

"Alright, take care of these matters." Gu Xuan nodded.

"Right now, the Young Master Xuan will wait at the auction. Wanting to take the alchemist examination is not a simple matter, I first have to tell Old Man Dugu that the alchemist examination is usually concentrated and not held every day." Zong Qi said carefully.

"Sure."

Gu Xuan nodded his head, and Zong Qi sent him to the auction house. The guards wanted to stop him, but after seeing Zong Qi, they gave up on the idea.

The auction house was filled with successfully refined pellets, all of which came from top quality Hall of Healing medicine masters, and were placed in the auction house for everyone to buy.

Although Gu Xuan was not interested in the elixirs, he had to pass the time as he wished.

"Big Brother Gu Xuan, why are you here?"

Gu Xuan wandered around for a while but he heard a familiar voice. He turned his head and found Liu Yue'er's figure.

Beside Yueer, Gu Xuan also recognized that it was the self-righteous Senior Sister Su.

Seeing the two of them, Gu Xuan was also startled, obviously, he did not expect to meet them here.
