The Geared Immortal

1382 Heavenly Samsara: Chapter 132



Chapter 1382

The people who heard him also showed a curious expression as they too drew closer.

"What is so mysterious about this thing?" a middle-aged judge below the group asked with a knitted brow.

He did not know what is happening and how those elders from the alchemy association could look at the pill and the potion as if it is something that they have not seen before.

As someone from the alchemy association, the elders should be someone who has seen many pills in their lifetime. Seeing them looking at a single pill with awe in their eyes made the rest of the judges below frown.

Before another judge could ask some questions, the old elder of the sect raised his hand and declared that Master Yo is the winner.

This did not sit with the others who feel baffled at this time. They are now thinking that there is favoritism that is happening in the contest.

But from the looks of it, only those no-name alchemists are being praised while the rest who belongs to the clans or families are being neglected making those people feel angry. Even the royal family at this time are showing a hint of annoyance when the elders of the alchemy association are showing such favoritism.

But the elders representing are all the core of the association which made them thoroughly devoted to alchemy and most of them disdain politics.

A middle-aged man sitting near the king showed an embarrassed expression. He knew that this would happen since Master Alchemist Xun was invited.

In the alchemy association, Master Alchemist Xun holds the highest ranking in alchemy. She was once voted for and was supposed to be the one who should preside over the association. But she threatens that if the association did this, she would leave.

Hence, they have no choice but to call another to be their president.

"Your majesty, I apologize for my colleagues. They are just too enthusiastic in alchemy..." the middle-aged man is the vice-president of the association and is the one in charge of handling mostly the politics of the association.

Right at this moment, the vice-president could not help but wipe the beads of sweat forming on his forehead.

The king waved his hand and showed a faint smile.

He was just a bit displeased because the nobles have always been proud and arrogant and would always flaunt their juniors saying that they are good at this and good at that.

But this time, they suffered a big slap on their faces as they are faced with two geniuses from ordinary lineage.

Although he is feeling a bit displeased, he is also surprised that there would be talents in his kingdom which might rival that of the other kingdoms.

So now, his expression changes into one of happiness.

"This is good… This is good…" the king suddenly said which baffled everyone.

Suddenly from the arena, Master Yo\'s opponent steps forwards and shouted.

"I cannot accept this… How could he win when he concocted a 6th-tier pill and a potion… This is unfair…" the alchemist showed an angry expression.

Everyone went silent as they all look at the arena. Many are now expecting to see something good. Most people wanted to also know the reason why the 6th tier pill would win against a 7th tier pill.

At this time, the judge looks at Master Yo. But Master Yo did not say anything and just showed a calm expression.

"Do you really want to know why he won against you?" an elder asked.

The young alchemist did not say anything and resolutely nodded his head. No matter what, he wanted to know the reason why he lost.

"I just hope that this would not dampen your enthusiasm in alchemy…" the silver-haired Master Xun suddenly said with a smirk.

She then looks at the elder and nodded her head. The elder in front of the potion bottle with a pill at the top lifted his hand and then pushes the pill into the potion.

As soon as the pill and the potion combine, the potion changes color as the pill disappears.

At this time, within a hundred feet radius, a strange and calm aura envelope everyone near the potion.

The elders subconsciously closes their eyes, it was a strange calming feeling that seem to clear their minds.

The judges near the place also felt the strange sensation which made them also close their eyes.

Then a light mist began to spread in the surroundings as everyone could feel the want to suddenly cultivate.

"Such rich and pure Ki…" the king muttered with a surprised expression on his face.

He suddenly wanted to take that bottle and then get inside a room and began to cultivate. He knew that if he did that, he might even break through to the next level in an instant.

"What do you call this?" suddenly Master Alchemist Xun asked.

"Ki-mist potion… It has the ability to turn the chaotic Ki in the air into pure Ki. If you surround yourself with Ki-stones then you will be able to cultivate faster without holding the stones…" Master Yo explained.

This is one of his epiphanies while listening to Xin Ja\'s lecture.

He suddenly thought of such a pill that could make cultivation faster and more convenient plus it has a calming effect that could even trigger enlightenment.

It was a very precious concoction that made the young alchemist turn pale.

Even though it is only a 6th-tier pill, but when combined with the potion, it would turn into a high-grade 7th-tier concoction.

How could his pill be a match to that thing?

Once again, Master Yo has shown his prowess in alchemy and taken 1st place.

At this time, everyone turned to the black pill on the table.

They have an expectant look in their eyes. But no matter how the crown looks at the black pill, they could not get the idea how it could even be called a pill.

Calling it a ball of charred mud might be the most accurate description of that thing.

"Alchemist Xin, I will only ask you… What do you call this thing?" Master Alchemist Nie asked this time.

Xin Ja did not want to make any suspenseful move and honestly replied.

"The pill is…"

But before he could say anything, he was interrupted by a sarcastic tone.

"A failure… a ball of mud…" the 3rd prince commented.

Everyone who heard his words laughed. He then looks at the people in the stadium with a sneer.

"A failure… a ball of mud…" he repeated while using his Ki which made everyone hear his words.

The whole crowd in the stadium laughed while showing a mocking gaze while looking at the black pill.

The elders look at Xin Ja with complicated expressions… but he did not mind them. He even ignores the judge who is showing disdain on his face.

"Uncouth and ignorant…" Xin Ja scoffed as he walk towards the black pill.

He lifted his finger and then presses on the black pill which suddenly created a crack on its surface. He continues putting light pressure on his finger until the whole black pill is now filled with cracks.

He patted the table and the whole black shell fell from the pill and a light transparent pill could be seen. Then a whiff of sweet aroma was sniffed by everyone near it which made them exclaim in surprise.

"A… A midgrade 7th tier pill…!" the judge who mocked Xin Ja could not help but exclaimed in disbelief.

How could it happen when he even deliberately uses his Ki to destroy the pills inside the furnace?

"Mind Clearing Pill… A pill that could induce breakthrough when one is at a bottleneck. It can even cause one to reach enlightenment in a skill by using it…" Xin Ja explained.

When the people heard those words, gasps of admiration could be heard everywhere in the crowd.

The face of the 3rd prince turned pale while glaring at Xin Ja.

"Uncouth and ignorant…" Xin Ja mocked while looking at the 3rd prince.

When the 3rd prince meets Xin Ja\'s eyes, he suddenly stood up in anger.

"Are you challenging me?" he shouted.

"We still have some score to settle little prince… But in front of your father, I will show my respect. But if you push me too far… you will regret it." Xin Ja warned with a calm tone.

No one could feel anything from Xin Ja which baffled everyone.

"What a dangerous fellow…" suddenly an old man behind the king said.

The king nodded his head while looking at Xin Ja who did not exude any killing intent or any other intent for that matter.

He is like an innocent guy who holds no grudges toward anyone, but his words hold too much weight to be ignored.

Xin Ja suddenly turns around and stands back in his position.

The queen on the other hand showed displeasure on her beautiful face. But she dares not do anything as this contest holds importance more than anyone knows.

She only knew from her husband the underlying principle and purpose of the contest. She would dare not intrude on this affair for fear of angering the empire.

Although she is displeased, she could only grit her teeth and keep everything in her mind.

She could only hold back her temper at this point in time.

At this time, Xin Ja and Master Yo have finally entered the final round which made Ao Meixi and the gang truly happy.
