Rebirth Of The Urban Immortal Cultivator

“Alchemy Battle?” someone exclaimed.

An Alchemy Battle was the simplest way of settling scores between Alchemy Sects and Alchemists. The best Immortal Cultivator had the strongest power! And the best alchemist would have the highest level in alchemy!

Whoever was better at Alchemy Arts would be the winner.

However, what was more shocking was that Chen Fan had challenged the entire Alchemy Guild instead of one of them. This meant that Situ Cheng, the elders, the Guild Master and even the legendary Elixir Lord could participate. Besides, if the Alchemy Guild won, Chen Fan’s life would fall into their hands.

“Are you nuts?” Wu Qinyan almost yelled.

She stared at Chen Fan as if he were a psychiatric patient.

Elder Situ even shook his head and snickered, “Alchemist Chen, I’ve underestimated your courage. You’re the first person in ten thousand years to challenge the Alchemy Guild. I’m impressed.”

“How arrogant!” Grandmaster Chenyan yelled. He stuck out his hand, which was surrounded by black and white fire, and was about to take Chen Fan down. The other young alchemists shook their heads and thought Chen Fan was talking nonsense.

Then, Wang Xuanfeng suddenly said, “You do have guts. I haven’t met a cultivator like you for a long time. Guild Master, I think you should accept his challenge. We can show people how powerful the Alchemy Guild is. The Wang family can be your witness.”

Elder Chenyan’s hand froze in the air and Xu Yuan also frowned.

If the others, including Hu Xiao and Violet Moon Fairy, said those things, Xu Yuan would have ignored them. Still, Wang Xuanfeng was different. The Wang family was a real historical family with a Nascent Soul Heavenly Lord as backer.

Unless Elixir Lord became a Heavenly Alchemist, the Alchemy Guild would be vulnerable in front of the Wang family. As one of the top young descendants of the Wang family, Wang Xuanfeng would probably be their future leader, so what he said had to be considered.

When Xu Yuan was hesitating—

Hu Xiao also said, “Yes, Guild Master. We should let Alchemist Situ have a battle with Perfected Cultivator Azure Wood. If Alchemist Situ exhibits an extremely high standard, we can give the Nine Transformation Spirit Pill to him.”

Violet Moon Fairy also nodded.

“Let’s just accept his request, Guild Master. How would the Alchemy Guild be scared of a boy from a Barren Region?” Elder Situ yelled.

“I’m willing to battle.” Situ Cheng stepped forward and looked up.

With the support of those people, Xu Yuan finally made a decision. He said, “Alchemist Chen, the Alchemy Guild will accept your challenge. Alchemist Situ will represent us in this battle…”

“I haven’t finished,” Chen Fan interrupted, “I’ll give you five chances and you can set up the theme of the battles. I lose immediately as long as you win one battle. Even if I win, I won’t kill you. You just have to promise me one thing.”

“Sure!”

Xu Yuan, the Guild Master of the Alchemy Guild and a top Alchemy Grandmaster, was enraged. There was even fire in the eyes of the other alchemists.

“The Alchemy Guild will certainly accept your request. The first Alchemy Battle will be held three days later!”

Then.

Xu Yuan left.

Chen Fan also walked to the door slowly in front of the elders and disciples of the Alchemy Guild.

The Alchemy Guild was about to have an Alchemy Battle with Perfected Cultivator Azure Wood from the Beihan Region.

The news quickly circulated the entire Alchemy Guild and were spread around Medicine City. In less than a day, everyone in the State of Ancient Medicine knew about it and people were stunned.

“Who’s Perfected Cultivator Azure Wood? I’ve never heard of him.”

“I heard that he’s a new Grandmaster from the Barren Regions, who claims that he’s the best alchemist in the north! He defeated Master Huang, Monk Mu and Perfected Cultivator Jiudan, but I’m not sure if it’s true.”

“But no matter how strong he is, he would be no match for Situ Cheng. I heard that Situ Cheng has already become a Grandmaster.”

During those recent days…

Thousands of people in the entire city were talking about that Alchemy Battle.

Chen Fan’s past was soon being exposed. He traveled across the Barren Regions with the name Perfected Cultivator Azure Wood and battled with many Alchemy Grandmasters. Even though the Barren Regions were far from the Beihuang Region, many people had heard of him.

They were all looking forward to the battle.

Besides, what Chen Fan said in the tower was also spread.

“He claimed that he’s the best alchemist on Planet Tianhuang. Even Elixir Lord and the Heavenly Lord of Ancient Medicine wouldn’t be so arrogant.”

“Indeed, he’s just an ignorant young man.”

“He’s digging his own grave.”

After hearing about this, Chen Fan’s reputation was destroyed. The more powerful he was, the more humble he should be. Such a haughty person didn’t seem like a peerless Grandmaster at all.

So.

Many people in the State of Ancient Medicine thought Chen Fan would lose and become a laughing stock.

People started to place a bet on the battle. One Spirit Stone to a thousand for betting Chen Fan would win once and one to a hundred thousand for winning all five battles.

During those three days.

Chen Fan sat in the small house at the “Medicine Inspection Institute” and didn’t go anywhere. The people of the Alchemy Guild weren’t worried that he would run away, either. After all, the Heavenly Lord of Ancient Medicine had formed arrays around the tower and nobody could escape, unless Chen Fan was a Heavenly Lord.

That night, Qiao Qiao visited him with tears welled up in her eyes.

“Brother, are you really going to have a battle with Young Elixir Lord?”

“Of course.”

Chen Fan smiled and replied, “What’s wrong, Qiao Qiao? Who made you sad? Your friends?”

“Hm.”

Qiao Qiao lowered her head and said, “They said you will lose and you’re no match for Young Elixir Lord. They even said that the Alchemy Guild will never let you get away…’

“Don’t worry. Wait and see how I defeat that Young Elixir Lord,” Chen Fan said.

The girl nodded. She wiped her tears with her hand and said she would go to support Chen Fan three days later. Unfortunately, after two days passed, the old man in grey robe traveled from Donyang City and took Qiao Qiao away from Chen Fan.

But Chen Fan didn’t care about this at all.

After all, everyone thought he would lose. As Qiao Qiao’s grandpa, how could he let her stay with Chen Fan and be friends with the enemy of the Alchemy Guild?

Qiao Qiao cried her eyes out when she left. Chen Fan promised her that he would go see her after winning the battle and Qiao Qiao finally calmed down a bit.

“Brother, be careful.”

Before the old man left, he looked at Chen Fan and heaved a sigh.

Nobody else paid a visit ,in the following three days. The families and guilds that used to go see Chen Fan never showed up again. Chen Fan only received a letter from an anonymous person. It recorded all the Alchemy Arts Situ Cheng knew and other detailed information. Chen Fan had already destroyed it right after he glanced over it.

Looking at the handwriting, Wu Qinyan’s face suddenly came to Chen Fan’s mind.

But it disappeared immediately.

Three days later, the first battle finally began!
