Chapter 1081: Celestial Place of the Alchemists
“No wonder you ranked first. I admire you, brother.” said Lin Ruo Tian smiling. Lin Feng was really gifted.
A young man in purple clothes looked at Lin Feng, he was amazed too.
“I’m convinced you’ll defeat the illusion as well, it’s only a matter of time.” replied Lin Feng. The illusion of the ninth group of steps was terrifyingly strong, on the fourth group of steps, it was a lot easier to defeat.
Qiu Yue Xin looked at Lin Feng smiling in a resplendent way. She hadn’t seen Lin Feng in a month and he was surprising her once again. He could defeat the illusion easily. How strong would he be a year later?
But many people also guessed that Lin Feng defeated the illusion easily because he had obtained something on the ninth floor. They couldn’t wait to go and see for themselves.
The young man in purple clothes immediately tried to make it to the fifth floor.
A terrifying strength oppressed him, he shouted furiously, his clothes and hair fluttered in the wind. It looked painful. He released energies as the atmosphere was distorted.
“Someone made it up.” thought the crowd. Many people had already managed to make it to a floor higher. One person had managed to climb two more floors. They were wondering how the ranking list had changed. Lin Feng didn’t know about that because he had stayed on the highest floor.
Everybody watched him and felt like going up too.
“I should try too.” thought Lin Ruo Tian. Then, he started walking up the stairs. He breathed in deeply and started walking up the fifth floor.
“Ah!” Lin Ruo Tian shouted furiously when he sensed the oppressive energies. His blood was boiling. He released energies to counter those oppressive forces. He also tried to condense force and he managed to go up the fifth floor.
“He did it too!” In one day, two people made it to the fifth floor. Meng Ba had sensed that people were coming to the fifth floor so he tried to make it up to the sixth floor, but failed. He still wasn’t strong enough.
“They’re all going up.” thought Lin Feng. Nobody had given up. Many people wanted to become the emperors’ direct disciples and were ready to face all the risks for that.
“I need to go.” said Lin Feng to Qiu Yue Xin. He hadn’t forgotten about his friends on the Island of the Nine Dragons. He had to go and see them still.
“I’m coming with you.” whispered Qiu Yue Xin.
“There’s no need. You need to stay here and practice cultivation. I need to do something so I’ll come back soon.”
“Alright.” nodded Qiu Yue Xin.
Lin Feng went down the stairs.
“Lin Feng.” said someone at that moment. It was Mu Chen. “Where are you going, Lin Feng?”
“Brother, I’m going to the Island of the Nine Dragons.” said Lin Feng honestly.
“Alright, I’ll put its location in your memories. Come back quickly.” said Mu Chen nodding. Lin Feng was happy. He wouldn’t need to find the way himself.
Mu Chen gave him a talisman, Lin Feng inspected it and he directly knew where the Island of the Nine Dragons was.
“As expected, it’s as big as a city.” thought Lin Feng. He was worried for You You and the others.
The Island of the Nine Dragons was terrifying and there were many strong cultivators there. They scared people crossing the Huang Sea. They would do anything they wanted. Even the Yang Clan was scared of them. Pirates were always hunting treasures to trade with.
“You have a boat and the eight dragon chants, so going to the Island of the Nine Dragons shouldn’t be a problem. Come back quickly though. Something very important will be happening in Ba Huang Province soon. It will be a good opportunity for you. Don’t miss it.” said Mu Chen as if he were worried.
Something was going to happen in Ba Huang Province and it would be beneficial for Lin Feng too?
“Brother, I have another question.” said Lin Feng. He had wanted to ask that question for a while.
“When it’s just the two of us, you needn’t worry, you can ask me anything.” said Mu Chen in a gentle way. Lin Feng was touched. He could talk about anything with Mu Chen and Hou Qing Lin.
“I have a friend who is a beast, when she was turning into a human being, she used forbidden strength and permanently turned back into an animal. How can I help her recover her human form?” asked Lin Feng. Mu Chen had a vast knowledge, he probably knew about those things.
“Your friend didn’t take care of herself. When animals turn into human beings, they have to be careful and can’t use restricted strength. I don’t know to which extent she used her strength and how far her transformation had advanced. If she was an ordinary animal and used all her strength, turning back into a human being should be fine with some Tian level medicine. However, if she is an extraordinary Tian level beast and used a lot of strength, well, it will be difficult. You will need an incredible cultivator to help her, or you will need holy medicine.” explained Mu Chen.
Lin Feng remembered the cat back then which had transformed into a cat and had used all his strength. A while after, he had turned back into a human being. Meng Qing was different, she was an incredibly strong cultivator so recovering was more difficult. Damn the bastards who had attacked her.
Lin Feng had to wait. He would become stronger, go back to Gan Yu and annihilate the East Sea Dragon Palace and Jade Heaven.
“What can I do, more precisely, if she was a really strong animal?” said Lin Feng seriously.
“There are two solutions.” said Mu Chen pointing at the flight of stairs. “Go to the tenth floor, our teachers will help you.”
Lin Feng had to understand the path before that. And for that he would need time.
“What about the second solution?” asked Lin Feng.
“The second solution is to find the Celestial Place of the Alchemists, it is a holy place for alchemists who concoct pills. There will be holy medicines there. However, you’ll have to find a way to find the medicine there then.” said Mu Chen smiling. Two solutions, none of which were easy. Of course, there was a third solution too. Lin Feng could go and look for the ingredients himself, however, that was too dangerous. That was why Mu Chen didn’t tell Lin Feng about it.
“Where is the Celestial Place of the Alchemists?” asked Lin Feng.
“The leader of the place is an emperor. That place is a bit like Tiantai.” said Mu Chen smiling. Lin Feng had to go to a terrifying place to obtain holy medicine. Both solutions were too difficult. What could he do?
“I heard that the Celestial Place of the Alchemists’ holy woman was going to appear.” siad Mu Chen suddenly smiling at Lin Feng. “The Celestial Place of the Alchemists’ leaders have always been women. The holy woman might be the next empress there. If she agrees to give it to you, then it won’t be a problem.”
Lin Feng looked at Mu Chen and had the sensation Mu Chen’s smile was a bit sly.
