Chapter 740 Fire City Jiufeng Terrace

Fire City, built on the mountain, is the closest city to Medicine Valley.

The atmosphere of medicine refining culture here is extremely strong, and it is also the gathering place of most medicine refining masters.

Only a small number of medicine refining masters in Fire City can be admitted to Medicine Valley. Most of them are not qualified to be selected at all. This is just like the recruitment of disciples by super sects. There are many people who come to sign up every year, but only a small number of them can actually stay.

Ye Chen and his three companions walked in the city, and people who came and went were all wearing robes.

"It is easy to distinguish medicine refining masters. Most medicine refining masters like to wear robes to distinguish themselves from ordinary practitioners. Moreover, they are very arrogant and look down on others. They always think that medicine refining masters are superior to others. This is rarely reflected in formation masters and weapon refiners."

Ning Anran chatted with Ye Chen while walking.

"At a glance, they are all medicine refining masters."

Ye Chen glanced around and couldn't help but smile.

"Sir, this is normal. After all, Fire City is the closest to Medicine Valley. Moreover, Medicine Valley holds a medicine refining competition every year. Alchemists who rank high in the competition will have the opportunity to join Medicine Valley. The reason why they gather here is that they are waiting for an opportunity to enter Medicine Valley."

Ning Anran obviously knows all this, and she talks about it eloquently.

She has a good appearance and attracts a lot of attention along the way.

Ning Anran doesn't care at all. She always lags behind Ye Chen by half a step and follows him obediently.

"Medicine Valley, in the hearts of alchemists, is probably higher than the status of super sects."

Ye Chen smiled. Medicine Valley has a profound foundation and a long heritage. It is really no worse than super sects.

The four super sects will privately buy some pills from Medicine Valley.

After all, Yaogu is the largest gathering place for alchemists in Qinglian Realm, and it has a monopoly on the top alchemists. In addition, the production of elixirs is very small. If they act capriciously, the price of elixirs in the market will fluctuate by several percent. It is no exaggeration to say that they control the lifeline of the market.

No matter what force, they must have a good relationship with them.

But soon Ye Chen found that most alchemists were walking in one direction.

In doubt, Ye Chen took the initiative to ask, "Where are you going?"

The alchemist glanced at Ye Chen and saw that he was not dressed in the same way. He said indifferently, "On Jiufengtai, that guy is going to choose a force."

"Jiufengtai? Choose a force?"

Ye Chen was even more puzzled when he heard it.

He wanted to continue asking, but the alchemist was unwilling to pay too much attention to him and turned away.

"Sir, Jiufengtai is the most famous high platform in Huocheng. It is also the place where the Alchemist Conference is held every year. Many Tianjiao Alchemists came out of Jiufengtai and were selected by Yaogu, thus becoming famous all over the world. Therefore, in the hearts of Huocheng people, Jiufengtai is very sacred."

Ning Anran hurriedly explained. She was familiar with the books and had some understanding of these.

"In that case, let's go and have a look."

Ye Chen grinned.

Anyway, there is no definite destination yet. Since we are here, we can go around and make this trip worthwhile.

Jiufengtai is a high platform located in the center of Huocheng. It is very magnificent and vast. There stands a stone tablet on the high platform, which is full of many golden names. Each one symbolizes full glory.

Anyone who has the ability to carve his name on the stone tablet is a Tianjiao Alchemist who came out of Huocheng. They successfully broke through the siege and won the favor of Yaogu in the extremely fierce competition and became Yaogu disciples.

Some of them have already achieved success and become elders in Medicine Valley.

They would come back to Jiufengtai from time to time to pass on this spirit forever.

Today, Jiufengtai is crowded with people.

Many alchemists gathered here, looking at the stage with excitement.

On the stage, several middle-aged men were refining pills with alchemy furnaces.

They had different methods, and they grabbed herbs and put them into the alchemy furnace at a very fast speed, which was dazzling.

The flowing light was colorful and very gorgeous.

The audience was noisy and lively.

"What are they doing?"

Ye Chen was quite curious. From his perspective, these middle-aged men on the stage were all saint-level alchemists, but they were still a certain distance away from the emperor-level. He didn't know why they gathered here.

"They are here for the evaluation!"

Someone beside him laughed, "This time, it can be said to be a grand event. Not only did all the alchemy families gather here, but even the Helian family, the first family in Fire City, also sent people, and Medicine Valley sent three elders at once. They are all waiting for that guy... Some alchemists can't wait to go to Medicine Valley to line up for evaluation, and they insist on refining pills on the spot and ask these authoritative elders to judge for them."

"So that's it."

Ye Chen's eyes swept across the venue. As expected, there were several old men sitting on the stage, and they all looked impatient.

After all, this time he came to Jiufengtai with a mission, not to deal with this group of alchemists.

But there were too many people in the audience, and they were also very enthusiastic, so he couldn't refuse directly.

In desperation, they could only ask these alchemists to come up and refine the pills.

Crack!

One of the alchemists suddenly had cracks on his pill furnace, and a breath leaked out.

"Ah this..."

The alchemist was stunned when he saw this.

In a hurry, he immediately reached out to cover the crack.

This evaluation opportunity is very important to him.

If he misses it, he may have to wait for a few more years.

However, the crack is too big and is still spreading. It is useless to block it with hands.

Finally, this time the medicine refining failed.

The middle-aged alchemist's eyes suddenly flashed with despair, and the whole person seemed to be unable to bear the blow and fell straight to the ground.

"Hmph."

The old man in the lead had an impatient look on his face, "You dare to come out and embarrass yourself at this level? Who gave you the confidence!"

After the other alchemists noticed this scene, they were also under great pressure. They wanted to concentrate and hold their breath to refine the pills in their furnaces, but somehow, they could not concentrate.

Boom!

Soon, the second furnace exploded!

The third, the fourth.

All the holy alchemists on the stage were defeated within half an hour.

Only one person managed to refine a pill, but unfortunately it only had half a pill pattern.

This means that this pill did not completely reach the first level of the emperor level, and it was at most a semi-finished product.

"Before, you shouted that I had to give you a chance to rate you on the spot, so is this the performance you presented to me?"

The old man swept his sharp eyes across the audience, "You want to be rated, right? Well, my rating is garbage, without exception, all garbage, get out!"
