Eternal Cultivation Of Alchemy

Chapter 2079 News

Alex tried asking the question of who this seer was to the three and none of them could answer him. He couldn’t even tell if they weren’t answering him due to the lack of an answer, or due to the oath they were forced to take.

Unable to get an answer, Alex decided to get it somewhere else.

He took a few deep breaths to clear his mind from the event. There wasn’t much time before the duel, so he couldn’t let himself get caught in some other problems right now.

It was a blessing that the man didn’t force his Creation’s powers upon him. With the Spirit Reversal Technique active, Alex would’ve had to suffer a lot of mental distress in order to fight that off. And now was not the right time for that.

Alex shook himself a little, getting all of that out of his body. “Alright, let’s leave. We can’t keep the crowd waiting for too long.”

They finally left the store, making their way to the city center. Even before they arrived, they could already hear the soft murmur of thousands of people gathering around in a vast area.

People filled the road, the buildings, and even the building tops were completely covered with them. Making a quick assessment, Alex realized there were nearly 50 thousand people gathered here today. And there was still time yet.

More could be coming.

As Alex went past the people, he could hear some occasionally talking about him, wondering how good of an alchemist he was. There were some wondering if the match today was going to be a repeat of the duel from nearly 2 decades ago.

They weren’t wondering if he would lose, but rather if Wang Yanwei would be the one in the duel on his behalf. It appeared that they knew Yanwei was the better alchemist between the two and thus believed Alex would be losing the following match.

Alex couldn’t help but smile at those words. He turned back, looking at Fang Yuxie. “Remember, bet all of it,” he said.

“I get it, I get it,” she said. 400 thousand Immortal spirit stones. The possibility of failure being high made her heart sink a little, but she said nothing about it.

Someone noticed Alex’s arrival and they pointed to him. Soon enough, many of the people were looking at him. A few cheered, but most just talked.

Alex looked at the crowd and sighed. “I’ll see you guys later,” he said and flew away, flying to the center where an open area had been prepared.

He landed in the open area, feeling the sudden lack of sound from the place. There was a formation already running around him.

He could feel the gazes of everyone gathered for the event on him. Everyone had come here to watch him take part in an Alchemy competition.

He couldn’t help but smile a little. ‘I haven’t had this many people gather for me since I stopped being the king,’ he thought. It felt strangely weird.

He looked down at the open space and found two seats that had been prepared for him to sit in with a few formations set up around for the cultivators. He went ahead and sat down.

Now, he just had to wait for the rest to arrive.

Supreme Immortal Alchemist Han, Supreme Immortal Alchemist Ming, Guild Master Blackfrost, and Guildmaster Bluehorn were together on top of a faraway roof, ready to head on over to the dueling ground.

They had gathered early morning to have the area for the duel set up and then had moved away so as to not be bothered by the others. They had waited here to not remain in the public eye for long.

“It appears the young man has arrived,” Bluehorn said. “He is a little early, but that’s alright.”

“He must be rushing to lose,” Alchemist Ming said from the side. A smug smile remained on his face, completely certain of his own victory.

Alchemist Han appeared to not give those words any thought, but the slightest change in expression that he managed to hide showed that he was bothered by those words. As they not only attacked Alex, but their guild as well.

“Young Ming can go first. Us judges can go later,” Blackfrost said.

Alchemist Ming seemed to accept that proposition and flew off. Soon enough, they could hear the cheers of thousands of different people all at once. It was a stark contrast to how people had reacted when Alex had arrived.

Blackfrost couldn’t help but sigh internally.

A few minutes passed and a person quickly rushed over to where they were. Bluehorn looked at the person who came and was surprised to notice that it was one of their alchemists.

“Guild master!” the woman said as soon as she saw him.

“Violet? Is something wrong?” Bluehorn asked, concerned.

Blackfrost looked at her with some curiousness as well. “Nothing is wrong, I think?” she said. “But just in case it was, I came.”

“Explain clearly. What’s going on?” Bluehorn asked.

“Well, you see. The news came just now. It’s spreading through the city quickly. I thought you would want to hear it as soon as possible too,” she said. “I haven’t confirmed it or anything, but… here.”

She handed over a talisman and Bluehorn quickly grabbed it, reading it. He spent a few seconds going through the information, and then his eyes widened in shock.

He slowly put the talisman down and looked at the woman who had arrived. “A coincidence?” he asked, but even as he asked, the information he got was filling things in for him that he had wondered about for a long time.

Blackfrost seemed confused by the reaction from Bluehorn and waited for him to reveal what was happening. When he saw the guild master get lost in his own thoughts, he became frustrated.

“Are you going to tell us if something is going on or not?” he demanded.

Bluehorn snapped out of it and looked at Blackfrost. His eyes narrowed. “Did you know about this?” he asked.

“About what?” Blackfrost asked.

“This!” Bluehorn thrust the talisman over to Blackfrost, a look of anger flashing through his face as he did.

Blackfrost had caught that, but he let it be. He was too curious about the information on the talisman to care about such a small matter.

He quickly went through it, seeing what it was. It was an announcement, it appeared, one made just earlier this morning. It was a massive announcement, but one that had nothing to do with him. freeweɓnovel.cm

Or so he thought until he got to the sentence. When he did, his eyes went just as wide as Bluehorn’s did. He had known part of this a long time ago, but this… how was this possible?

Even as the time for the duel got closer, the news that had begun in the Oldbranch city made its way through the gathered crowd, slowly spreading at first before speeding up like wildfire.

The Sabers left behind by the Reverend Sixghost in the Twin Saber sect had finally been discovered after over a hundred thousand years of his passing.

And the one who found those sabers was none other than Dawnblade, a disciple of the Blue Silk sect.
