Chapter 62 Is Brother Chu about to set another trap?
"Grandpa, Qin Yueming's son and daughter, as well as the remnants of the Zhou family, have colluded with the City Lord's Mansion. Don't go out, just stay in the house and cultivate..." Chu Feng gave Su Yongquan some more instructions before returning to his room.
Upon hearing this, Su Yongquan broke out in a cold sweat, realizing that his enemy had managed to get in cahoots with the city lord's mansion in Tianfu City.
With Chu Feng's instructions in mind, Su Yongquan had already decided to never go out again and would just focus on his cultivation...
Zeng Yunxia hadn't returned from the Treasure Pavilion yet, and Nie Shuangren was also staying indoors, so Chu Feng didn't bother with it.
He closed the door and immediately began refining pills and crafting weapons, while also familiarizing himself with talisman making and array flag crafting.
With memories and experience from his previous life, Chu Feng quickly reached the level of a third-grade talisman master and a third-grade array master.
However, before he could finish using up the materials, Wen Yixi ran over to tell him that the Ten Cities Grand Competition was about to begin.
After giving Su Yongquan a final pep talk, Chu Feng and Wen Yixi headed to the Danlou in Tianfu City.
On the wide road, a beast-drawn cart sped toward the location of Danlou. Tianfu City was extremely large, covering an area of tens of thousands of miles. Walking there would be too slow.
Relying on movement techniques to travel is extremely taxing and detrimental to the competition. Fortunately, in addition to refining, Chu Feng absorbed five million mid-grade spirit stones. In his dantian, the colorful spiritual liquid surged like waves, which should be enough for today's battle.
Spirit stones are for cultivation, and Chu Feng didn't care at all; that's what you call being rich and powerful.
At this moment, many cultivators were already waiting in the main hall of the Danlou.
Chu Feng and his companion had just stepped inside when they encountered Zeng Xiao.
"Eh? Elder Wen? Chu Feng? Could it be that this is the person who is representing Julu City in the competition today? Elder Wen, you are a judge on the judging panel. Don't lose your impartiality by being with the participants!" Zeng Xiaoyin said with a sinister smile.
There were several hundred alchemists in the hall, plus those who came to observe, making at least two thousand people. Zeng laughed loudly, and everyone looked over.
Wen Yixi glanced coldly at Zeng Xiao: "Cheating in front of everyone, only Master Zeng would do something like that. After all, Master Zeng is very experienced!"
Chu Feng was slightly surprised. When Wen Yixi started arguing, he was no less witty than Zeng Xiao. It seemed that he was also a cunning old fox!
Zeng Xiao coldly laughed, "Elder Wen, don't talk nonsense! I, Zeng, am upright and honest! However, relying on this Foundation Establishment stage second-grade alchemist, I'm afraid you have no chance of being in the top three of the competition, hahaha, hahahaha..."
Wen Yixi ignored Zeng Xiao completely, gave Chu Feng some instructions, and then went straight to the judging panel.
Strength is the greatest source of confidence. Wen Yixi had already learned from Wu Heng that when Chu Feng refined the second-grade peak marrow nourishing pill, his strength was far inferior to what it is now!
Chu Feng's strength has now reached the seventh level of the Foundation Establishment stage. Could he possibly regress?
Is the formula for the Marrow Nourishing Pill something an ordinary alchemist could produce? With a master like that, how could Chu Feng's alchemy skills be lacking?
Wen Yixi had no idea that Chu Feng's master was a fabrication...
"Master Chu the Alchemist!"
Suddenly, a voice came from the crowd.
"Master Wu." Chu Feng looked up and saw that it was Wu Heng.
Wu Heng clasped his hands in a fist salute to Chu Feng and said softly, "Master Chu, I'm entrusting this to you today!"
The triennial grand competition is the moment that will determine Wu Heng's fate! If Chu Feng achieves a good ranking, he can also benefit from it!
If Chu Feng fails, Wu Heng will have no choice but to pack his bags and leave, and Zeng Xiao will not let him off the hook!
"Master Wu, it's been several years since we last met. Why are you still stuck in the Qi Refining stage? You haven't made any progress!" A cold voice rang out, making Wu Heng's face turn ugly.
Chu Feng looked over and saw an old man wearing a golden alchemy robe.
Alchemists are a highly respected profession, so many alchemists like to wear magnificent robes to show off their status.
"Hu Junxiong! I am indeed at the Qi Refining stage, but you are not!" Wu Heng was so angry that his beard trembled.
Hu Junxiong narrowed his eyes and said, "I am indeed at the Qi Refining stage, but I have taken on a fine disciple! My disciple is now at the first level of the Yuan Dan stage! In this Ten Cities Grand Competition, Yu Yue City will definitely be among the top three!"
Upon hearing this, Wu Heng felt a chill run down his spine. The alchemists from the Jade Moon City Pill Pavilion participating in the competition were already at the first level of the Yuan Dan stage. How could Chu Feng possibly compete with them?
"Hu Junxiong, do you think that only your disciple is at the first level of the Yuan Dan stage? My disciple is also at the first level of the Yuan Dan stage. My Qin Di City Dan Tower will not only enter the top three, but also win the championship!" A loud voice came from the crowd.
When Wu Heng saw the person who came out, his eyelids twitched again: "The Danlou Pavilion Master of Qin Emperor City, Gong Baoji!"
"If you all aim for the top three, has Giant Stone City become nothing more than a decoration?" An old man in brocade robes stepped forward. His cultivation had already reached the second level of the Foundation Establishment stage.
"Huo Ting, the master of the Pill Pavilion in Giant Stone City!" Wu Heng's heart skipped a beat again. Anyone who dares to act so arrogantly in public must have real power!
No sooner had Huo Ting finished speaking than another old man in brocade robes stepped forward and laughed, "What a coincidence! My disciple also broke through to the first level of the Yuan Dan stage yesterday! It seems that Feng Hua City also has a chance to win the championship!"
Wu Heng gritted his teeth and said, "Quan Yixiao, the master of the Danlou Pavilion in Fenghua City!"
Perhaps because there were too few alchemists at the Yuan Dan stage, the conversation between a few people brought silence to the hall.
At this moment, the Danlou masters of the other major cities did not look too good. These people all wanted to win the championship. Were they just decorations?
However, seeing Chu Feng next to Wu Heng, the expressions of these people improved slightly. He was only at the seventh level of the Foundation Establishment stage, which was the lowest cultivation level among the top ten Danlou contestants!
As long as it's not at the bottom, that's good!
The leader of the bottom-ranked Danlou will be expelled from Danlou!
"Master Wu, it seems you're not very popular!" Chu Feng chuckled softly.
Wu Heng's expression was clearly unpleasant. He said angrily, "They are stronger than me, so what can I do?"
Chu Feng laughed, "I'll help you break through to the Foundation Establishment stage right now! How about it?"
Anyway, the competition hasn't started yet. With his own help, Wu Heng only needs the time it takes for an incense stick to burn to break through the mere Foundation Establishment stage.
"Hahahaha! You brat! How dare you talk so arrogantly! Wu Heng is at the eighth level of Qi Refining, and you want him to break through to the Foundation Establishment stage right now?" Huo Ting laughed loudly.
Hu Junxiong shook his head and laughed, "Young man, you don't know the immensity of heaven and earth! The competition will begin in at most an hour! Wu Heng, let alone breaking through to the Foundation Establishment stage, it's impossible for him to even break through to the peak of Qi Refining!"
During their Qi Refining stage, it took them several days to break through each level! Let alone breaking through to the Foundation Establishment stage?
Chu Feng found it unbearable to look at these people's faces. You are all people who work for Danlou. Is it necessary to be so vicious in your sarcasm among colleagues?
"If I say he should break through, he will definitely break through! If Wu Heng cannot break through within the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, I, Chu Feng, am willing to cut off one of my fingers!"
