I was disappointed. I realized how well master had treated me now. The room that they gave me was plain, with an array at the center. The Low grade spirit stone was used to power up the whole array, and this created a dense Qi all around me. But the Qi was nowhere near the amount of Qi that was in the room which I used for my closed cultivation for nearly a month. It was paltry in comparison. However, it was still miles better than cultivating without, so I headed into the room. I closed the door behind…-

The disciples scrambled to leave the room. They left me alone with the old man. "Don't tell me! Your master is the reclusive Pill Saint, Mu Tian!" the old man speculated. My mouth curled up into a smile. He bit the bait. Now, all that I had to do was unravel a story out of this. "Do you know how displeased my master will be with this? You should hope that the people outside do not have a loud mouth. Or else, I am not sure how much longer their mouths will run." I said with an arrogant look. "This is…

I stepped on to one of the furnaces. This was the first time that I was going to be performing alchemy on a furnace that wasn't my own, so I was not sure what I could expect. "Enable Skill Assist, Alchemy." I said softly. Ping! the system confirmed. I could see exactly what I was supposed to do now. I shot Qi into the furnace and a fire started immediately. It was low, and I made sure to keep it that way. One by one, herbs entered the furnace and were tempered by the heat. Their essence was extracted…

"I see. And I think that I was lucky. I recognized all of them." I chuckled. The attendant switched back to the weird look on his face. I knew that he wanted to say that I was lying, but he was just stopping that impulse now that he found out I was a VIP member of the Shianxi auction house. "I shall congratulate you then, young master." the attendant bowed slightly and quickly left. He wanted nothing to do with me anymore, I could tell. I shook my head and looked at the entrance. No one was leaving. The…

The attendant returned minutes later and returned the card. "It is an honor to have a VIP guest of the Shiaxi Auction house here. I hope that you forgive us for our paltry service. The test will be starting shortly. I hope that you will be able to pass." the attendant's expressions and face changed considerably. Now, he was no longer looking at me with contempt, but with a worshipping expression. This VIP figure was clearly not for show. But why did they give me such a big title after just giving him one…

"What? A million? But the previous attendant said that it was just a hundred thousand coins!" I exclaimed. "That is for someone testing to be a single leaf clover symbol test. But someone who is able to synthesize foundation establishment pills, that means that you are attempting to beat the two lead clover," he said. "How does this classification even work anyway? I am getting more and more confused right now." I asked. He gave me a look like I was some country bumpkin. He did not believe that I could…

"Move! Move!" they shouted. There was still chaos everywhere. I looked at them with interest. How were they going to look for someone with only a name? Now that I was cast out of suspicion, I was relieved. I was confident that they could not find me. Now, all I could do was enjoy the show. They clearly had no intention of letting us go. All we could do was see what was going on. We found seats nearby. The chaos lasted another hour before Hulong Kin returned back to us. "I hope that you have not been…

"Say what now? There is an enemy now? Where?" I looked around with confusion. My spear appeared in my hands. I needed to defend myself. "Please disarm yourself. Everyone who is not a part of the Pill Tower is not allowed to hold a weapon." Hulong Kin stopped me. "Wait a minute. How does that work? You said that there is an enemy. Of course I should defend myself. Why can't I hold a weapon?" "I do not make the rules. Forgive me for doing this, but if you do not disarm yourself, then I will have to…

My pupils dilated. I turned around instinctively, but it was soon obvious that he wasn't behind me. He could be above me, around me, or even right below me. But one thing was for sure. He was near me. "Which floor are we on? How many floors does this tower have?" I asked. "We are on the tenth floor. Out of fourteen total. This tenth floor is where all of the disciples from other sects are welcomed and introduced to their mission." Hulong Kin said. "I see. And what about the floors above us? Who is above…

I had the time, so I took the liberty of using mind eye on him the moment I laid eyes on him. This man, Hulong Tian, was in the same realm that I was. He couldn't be stronger than me. After the seclusion, and getting acquainted with the power of Dao, I just knew that I was so much stronger than before. One thing was set in stone. The world that I had seen before and the world that I was yet to see that had masters of Dao within them were completely different. Even with the little that I knew about what…
