Paragon of Sin

Chapter 1289 1283: NDAE, Third Feat

Wei Wuyin!

The Neo-Dawn Alchemic Sovereign, the Ascendant Emperor of Neo-Dawn, a genuinely recognized Saintmaker on both sides of the spectrum, from cultivator to alchemist, finally took center stage before a crowd numbering in the quintillions! The long-awaited Main Host strode forward, making his appearance with a charismatic bearing and unfathomable presence, generating intensely rippling waves throughout the hearts and minds of the audience with barely any effort!

If it was only his looks, it would be difficult for a male to experience such an exaggerated series of reactions, but Wei Wuyin's every gesture, from his smile to each of his words, contained flavorful feelings as if they were supported by the laws of the world itself.There were those who saw him as domineering and kingly; there were those who saw him as humble and scholarly; there were those who saw him as warm and unrestrained; there were those who saw him as charismatic and charming. Regardless of how one saw him, his temperament was beyond reproach and harmonious, serving only to highlight his astonishing looks and exceptional feats.

Lin Xianxei's heart began to race nearly twice as fast, a faint blush emerging on her expression as blood rushed to her head. While they've talked quite often, even to the extent where Wei Wuyin would arrive as a Spiritual Avatar at times, there wras a notable difference when she sawr him in person.

While she, like everyone else, was an Avatar of the World of Eden, their senses were incomparably realistic, and Wei Wuyin was on center stage with his real body. It was as if they were observing him from inside their homes, looking at him from their open window.

It was also hard to deny the echoing words in her head.

"You should not want to find this man. He is everything you seek, foolish girl. All your dreams turned into reality, aspirations fulfilled, and even your future will be abundantly rich in happiness as long as you're with him; there is nothing you can't achieve. But..."That day, the Grand Seer had cautioned her from seeking out Wei Wuyin, that the best parts of her life were with him, and doing so would only bring harm to Lin Ming. At first, she thought nothing of it. Then, she had to borrow Wei Wuyin's name to secure both her and Lin Ming's life within the True Element Sect by relying on a rumor. It was a short stint, but she was stunned by the vastly different gazes and treatment she received.

Since then, the thought infected her like an incurable virus that refused to die.

After a long, long period of agonizing contemplation, including decades of trying to understand who this man named Wei Wuyin was, she came to realize that the Grand Seer's concerned tone might have been genuine. That day, Lin Ming cursed out the Grand Seer in refusal of her prophecy, but...

Long ago, she met Wei Wuyin in the Myriad Yore Continent shortly before they left for the Myriad Monarch Sect. At the time, Wei Wuyin was nothing special compared to Lin Ming. They had a similar cultivation level despite the gap of more than ten years, a notable advantage of Lin Ming. They had similar beginnings, were born in the same place, and Lin Ming's initial background was slightly better than Wei Wuyin's.

After several decades, they could no longer be compared! Wei Wuyin stood at the forefront, ushering in a new era, while Lin Ming was struggling to rise from the ashes of his ruined reputation. Moreover, Wei Wuyin was slowly, certainly, and intentionally depriving him of all the advantages he had suffered heavily for.

"But the man before you will suffer from his astonishing brilliance. And if you side with the False Chosen, your dreams will be like ash in your mouth, your aspirations will shatter in the most destructive way, and your future will be led down a bleak and uncertain path."

"Ash in your mouth," Lin Xianxei couldn't help but softly mutter those words as she saw Wei Wuyin's peerless presence that rivaled a young immortal of legend, lacking nothing in terms of looks, talent, ability, or backing. Curiosity had once infected her to ask Wei Wuyin if he belonged to a force during their Myriad Yore Continent days, uncertain why a force would neglect such an astonishing talent.

However, Wei Wuyin was first taken aback and proceeded to laugh amusingly at her. At the time, she felt that he was being rude, but right after, he informed her that he had never relied on anyone besides the Myriad Monarch Sect.

That's right!

Wei Wuyin boldly and calmly claimed that he didn't have the mysteriously great backing of some profound ancient power or exquisite master. He had reached this point by overcoming challenges and establishing himself with his own effort!

The claim was completely ridiculous! But she couldn't help but believe it. Why would he feel the need to lie? To her? There was nothing to gain from lying, and if he wanted to, he could simply say he couldn't talk about it due to certain oaths.

If what he said was true, all of his feats thus far didn't just outright outdo the King of Everlore; Wei Wuyin was likely the greatest existence ever born in this world!

And this figure was foretold by the Grand Seer herself to be her path to everything she ever wanted. How could a woman's heart not be moved? Even if the Grand Seer hadn't said that, Wei Wuyin himself was enough to move any woman in this world!

"..." Lin Ming had heard Lin Xianxei's mindless muttering, and his fist was clenched so tightly that if he wasn't an Avatar in the World of Eden, his hands would be dripping with hot blood. The distance that had been bridged from her concern now felt like a chasm. Despite being beside her, he felt as if he couldn't reach her even with all his efforts.

Lin Ming's grey-colored eyes fixated on Wei Wuyin as he moved across the stage, gracefully greeting the World of Eden with that unrivaled smile of his.

"Outstanding," the woman in San Yongli's Sea of Consciousness praised wholeheartedly. She might have been an ancient expert, but never had she seen such an exceptional mortal in her life.

"What do you think about him?" San Yongli's heart clenched for a moment after hearing the woman's voice. If Wei Wuyin was like her, possessing a Book of Heaven's Paths, there was bound to be rising conflict.

"Think of him? He's unfathomable. That's what I think. I can't gather anything except that his body feels in harmony with everything. Nothing is lacking at all," the woman answered with a lingering tone of shock in her voice.

"...No faults?" San Yongli asked. She looked at Wei Wuyin and saw his flawless visage, and even she had to say...if she compared him to Tian Yinwu, it was extremely difficult to decide on a winner in the looks department. They had two entirely different types of charm, especially since Wei Wuyin had a greater degree of masculine features, while Tian Yinwu was gentler and calmer. Even still, she couldn't outright determine who was better.

"Those eyes," the voice said suddenly.

San Yongli noticed Wei Wuyin's radiant silver eyes right then, and her mind instinctively compared Tian Yinwu's hazel-golden eyes, and she felt as if just by a little bit...that...

"No!" She stopped herself from thinking further.

"Those eyes are familiar," the woman said with uncertainty.

"Familiar?" But before she could delve into this familiarity, Wei Wuyin finally spoke.

"I'm not one to speak too much, so I apologize for being concise. Since everyone's time here is valuable, and I don't wish to waste even a second with the Chosen King Competition approaching, I've decided to push the last segment a little bit ahead of schedule." Wei Wuyin waved his hand, summoning a wide alchemy table with a single cauldron at its center.

"To remind everyone of what our lovely Primary Host Tian Xiaocheng said, I intend for this Alchemic Expo to possess three feats of the Alchemic Dao, five products of the Neo-Dawn Lineage, and seven bouts of good fortune. I will be taking the lead on the last of each today."Wei Wuyin could feel everyone's curious gaze, and his smile deepened. "For the third feat, I'll be showcasing a live concoction of the fifth product. It might not be the most impactful of the four products for certain individuals, but it will be the highest-graded product of the expo."

Standing before the mystic-graded cauldron, fresh without the slightest wisp of Utmost Purity Mist, Wei Wuyin began to bring out sets of materials. Each material was mystic-graded in quality and essence.

Everyone was frozen in shock!

A live concoction?!

"Shall we begin?" Much to everyone's shock, Wei Wuyin didn't use any Neo-Dawn Vortex-Zone Pellets! Moreover, he was exerting a faint aura of a Starforce-he was a Starlord! As his aura leaked, information about him did too!
