Chapter 895: Chapter 886: Divine Stroke
“In this assessnt, he, like Fang Han of the Fang Family, is one of the talents participating in the Holy Rank assessnt; I naturally know that.”
Elder Hai nodded. As the Alliance Hierarch, he naturally cared more than anyone about the developnt of the Alchemist Alliance.
At the ti when the news of ‘Ji Changkong’ first ca out, he had been paying attention and had even conducted so simple investigations.
But the final result was fruitless, not a single piece of information about the origins of this ‘Ji Changkong’ could be found.
This person seed to have appeared out of thin air, inexplicable!
However, he did discover sothing interesting because Elder Hai had once glimpsed the na Ji Changkong in ancient texts.
Ancient Ji Family, Divine King’s Son, Ji Changkong!
Though he disappeared without a trace at a young age, ancient texts recorded that upon his birth, an anomaly manifested.
On that day, a giant pen ford from void appeared above the Heavenly Vault, inscribing the characters ‘Changkong,’ hence the Divine King nad him Ji Changkong.
No one knows the origin of that pen, but it seed to emanate a tiless power, as if it did not belong to this Era.
This sense of antiquity enveloped not only the entire Ji Family but the entire Daluo Heaven Realm; everyone felt it.
This is why the na Ji Changkong, even to this day, can still be found in ancient texts.
Because the celestial phenonon accompanying his birth was too astounding!
There’s another rumor, though never verified, that has persisted.
At that ti, the Ji Divine King, already a supre figure of his era, looked upon the ‘divine pen’ with awe, and no one knew why.
“Greetings, Elder Hai.”
Mo Wangchen stood up from his seat and cupped his hands towards Elder Hai, appearing neither servile nor overbearing.
Imdiately, this deepened Elder Hai’s curiosity; young people typically appeared reserved in his presence.
Even Kong Chu, the foremost talent in the Xuanwu Alliance, being the Young Alliance Leader, still acts such in his presence.
Yet this white-clad ‘Ji Changkong’ showed no signs of reverence while facing a senior expert.
“I heard there is a mysterious ntor behind Little Fellow Ji; please excuse my ignorance for not knowing that such an unknown colleague exists in the Xuanwu Alliance within our Alchemy Dao Realm,” Elder Hai said with a slight squint, though he seed casual, anyone could see his eyes harbored extre curiosity.
“My master dislikes worldly struggles, hence he secludes himself; it’s understandable you don’t know of him, Elder Hai,” Mo Wangchen smiled slightly, without any change in expression.
“Old fellow, don’t make wild guesses. I bet there are only a few in the entire Xuanwu Alliance who know of that master’s origins, and even without his consent, I can’t reveal anything to you,” Zhang Mingyuan stepped in to help Mo Wangchen out of the situation.
However, he felt a strange sense because, deep down, Zhang Mingyuan knew clearly that the so-called mysterious ntor behind Mo Wangchen was actually himself.
“Even soone you call elder ans his Alchemy Dao skill may well surpass mine. It’s a pity, as the Alliance Hierarch, I knew nothing of this senior’s existence before; you’ve hidden it well, old fellow,” Elder Hai glanced at Zhang Mingyuan.
Zhang Mingyuan chuckled without continuing the conversation but instead changed the subject, saying, “I’ll go and have soone bring another jar of Nine Heavens Divine Brew.”
“That’d be great, haha, Little Fellow Ji, after this assessnt, you’ll also be a part of our Alchemist Alliance. I’ll be in for a treat,” Elder Hai perked up at the ntion of ‘Nine Heavens Divine Brew.’
“Speaking of the assessnt…”
Zhang Mingyuan inford Elder Hai of Mo Wangchen’s intentions.
“Little Fellow Ji wishes for an individual assessnt, which is naturally no problem. With your ntor’s presence, I’d love nothing more than to pull you into the Alchemist Alliance, even without participation,” Elder Hai laughed heartily.
This was no empty talk; not to ntion the mysterious ntor behind Mo Wangchen, his Alchemy Dao talent alone was enough for the Alchemist Alliance to recruit him.
“The process still needs to be followed, or it would reflect poorly on the Alchemist Alliance if word got out,” Mo Wangchen smiled.
Soon, a servant, under Zhang Mingyuan’s instructions, brought in a jar of Nine Heavens Divine Brew.
“Leave us; no one should enter here without my permission,”
Elder Hai stood up and intercepted the jar of Nine Heavens Divine Brew from the servant, as if afraid he might not get a taste. He waved the servant away.
“Yes!”
The servant responded with great respect and then departed, closing the door behind him.
Yet in his heart, he marveled at the white-clad youth in the room, wondering about his great background.
Not only did he warrant a private banquet with the Vice Alliance Hierarch, but even the Alliance Hierarch himself ca by.
Such an honor was rare, even for the Xuan Emperor’s heir, wasn’t it?
…
Early the next morning.
The Pill Master assessnt took place as scheduled.
Most people rose early and headed straight to the assessnt venue after preparing themselves.
However, Mo Wangchen did not do so; he did not partake in the assessnt.
When he awoke from his dreams, he found that the Bright Sun was nearly at its zenith, waking up at noon.
“Drinking habits aren’t good; luckily, I don’t have to participate in the assessnt today, or I would’ve missed it,”
Mo Wangchen shook his head, still feeling a bit groggy, thinking to himself that the aftereffects of the Nine Heavens Divine Brew were quite strong.
Yet Mo Wangchen also discovered that after waking, his cultivation had slightly improved, a benefit from the Nine Heavens Divine Brew.
After washing up, Mo Wangchen left his courtyard and made his way to where the Pill Tower was.
Unexpectedly, the assessnt had ended so quickly, and as Mo Wangchen arrived at the entrance of the Pill Tower, many alchemists who partook in the examination began to make their exit.
“I thought there would be a good show, but Ji Changkong was absent and didn’t participate in this assessnt.”
“Not sure why, but with his Alchemy Dao talent, joining the Alliance shouldn’t be hard even without this assessnt, right?”
“Speaking of which, after learning Ji Changkong hadn’t shown up, Fang Han surprisingly withdrew and gave up the assessnt; I wonder what he was thinking.”
“Fang Han?”
Hearing the crowd’s chatter, Mo Wangchen was taken aback.
“Nothing strange about it; among those participating in the Holy Rank assessnt, only Ji Changkong and Fang Han are younger generation talents. Fang Han is fiercely competitive; he probably wanted to compete with Ji Changkong. Now that the latter didn’t show, he naturally left in anger.”
