Chapter 172: Chapter 7 Alchemist Talent Test
Taking advantage of the night, Lin Feng hurried away.
In this place, because it was densely covered with broken prohibitions, few people visited it, which was why Xuu Haocang thought it was a good place to kill and silence soone.
Similarly, for the sa reason, Lin Feng thought it was a great place to eliminate Xuu Haocang and the others.
Even if the bodies of Xuu Haocang and his two companions were discovered, it would also have taken so ti, by then, who would know it was him who did it?
Returning to his residence, Zhang Pingfan said with a smile, “I hear the Snow Pavilion is full of beauties, Fengzi, did you charm a few of them there?”
“Heh heh, with the captain’s strength and looks, I wonder how many beauties want to throw themselves at you,” Wu Ming said with envy.
...
Nowadays, many of the original team mbers still called Lin Feng their captain.
Helplessly shrugging his shoulders, Huang Lei, whose sister Huang Ling’er was overly attentive and always liked to linger around Lin Feng, wouldn’t oppose it if his sister really got together with Lin Feng. In fact, he would rather be proud to have Lin Feng as a brother-in-law, feeling it gave him face.
Lin Feng said, “There really are a lot of beauties; do you guys want to date any? I can introduce you.”
“Holy shit, captain. Our happiness for the rest of our lives depends on you!” A bunch of animals crowded around him.
Lin Feng smiled and said, “I heard that the Snow Pavilion has a requirent; if you want to date the girls of the Snow Pavilion, you must first pass the test of the Eighteen Immortal Sword Formation. Soone tried it recently and almost accidentally turned into a eunuch.”
Wu Ming and the others shuddered, their legs trembling.
Xuanyuan Zhan said, “Forget it, we ca here to cultivate, not to chase girls.”
Wu Ming and the others also said, “Exactly, beauties are but skeletons painted red, they will hinder our cultivation. We are dedicated to martial arts, and will definitely not let these red-painted skeletons distract us.”
Watching this group of self-aggrandizing fellows, Lin Feng couldn’t help but feel speechless; if you can’t get a date, just admit it, everyone acting so righteous.
Soon, the ten-day adjustnt period passed, and Lin Feng and the others joined the normal cultivation studies of the Genius Camp.
The discovery of the bodies of Xuu Haocang and his companions caused a huge stir within the Azure Dragon Academy, which began an investigation into the matter, but continued to lack evidence as to who it was done by?
It seed this matter would eventually fade away.
The high-ranking mbers of the Blood Dragon Association gathered.
The president of the Blood Dragon Association, with a dark expression, said, “Who did this? Do you have any ideas?”
A core mber of the Blood Dragon Association said, “Xuu Haocang had offended so people, but the place he died, Broken Mountain, was densely fortified with bans. As a Spirit Array Master, Xuu Haocang could have used the power of the bans in Broken Mountain. It would be extrely difficult to silently kill him there. Among the entire Azure Dragon Academy’s Genius Camp, at most a dozen people have this capability, but to my knowledge, these people likely wouldn’t do this.”
“Could it have been that Lin Feng?” Suddenly, a core mber of the Blood Dragon Association asked.
“That newcor?” The Blood Dragon frowned slightly.
The core mber nodded and said, “Lin Feng had a conflict with Guo Zifei before. Guo Zifei joined in the newcor assessnt, but then disappeared without a trace and hasn’t been found since. It’s very likely he t with an accident, and Lin Feng is a pri suspect.”
“Where’s the evidence?” Blood Dragon asked.
“There is no evidence at hand,” he said. “However, there are signs of a fight near the lake deep within Ancient Forest, and so have seen Guo Zifei and Nalan Kun active in that area. The Demon Python, a pet of the Spiritual Beast Elder, is kept inside the lake. Logically, they shouldn’t have gone to that place, unless they were chasing soone.”
The core mber voiced his suspicions.
Another core mber spoke, “Previously, Haocang had ntioned he wanted to investigate this matter. Brother, do you think it’s possible that Lin Feng did this?”
Blood Dragon pondered for a mont and then said, “Given Lin Feng’s abilities, silently killing Haocang in Broken Mountain wouldn’t be an easy task. However, this person does have a major suspicion. Keep a close watch below. If we can find evidence, this person must be utterly destroyed.”
“Yes.”
All core mbers of the Blood Dragon Association responded in unison.
…
Lin Feng’s days were filled with cultivation, followed by the consolidation of his Spirit Array skills.
One day, Lin Feng went to the Alchemist Hall,
because he was planning to learn the “Alchemy Skill.”
With the Fire Kirin, who once boasted of being the unmatched master of alchemy across the Three Thousand States, personally instructing him, Lin Feng believed his alchemy skills could make rapid advances.
Of course, to qualify as an alchemist, one must pass a test.
To beco an alchemist, there are extrely stringent conditions: first, the Soul Power must be far stronger than the average person; second, the Soul Power must have a Fire Attribute.
The human body is made up of the five basic elents: gold, wood, water, fire, earth.
The soul is also thus constructed, and only a soul with a Fire Attribute among the basic Five Elents could beco an alchemist.
This requires testing.
The Alchemist Hall is divided into five levels, with the first level being the main hall, which was very spacious and empty.
The way to the second floor was blocked by a fiery gate, and only alchemists had the right to enter through this fiery gate.
“No entry for non-alchemists,” a deep voice echoed seemingly out of thin air in the main hall.
Lin Feng said, “Senior, the disciple has co to test his talent for alchemy.”
“Test for alchemy talent?”
The voice sounded slightly surprised, then said, “Then co in. Wait for in the deepest room on the second floor.”
“Shhh…”
The flas of the fiery gate extinguished, and Lin Feng passed through. Once he had entered, the fiery gate reignited. This gate was similar to the Spirit Array Master Hall’s Soul Power gate, not only preventing idle people from entering but also making a loud noise if soone tried to force their way through, which would alert the elders stationed in the Alchemist Hall.
Lin Feng had arrived on the second floor!
The second floor was divided into various rooms, each containing nurous bookshelves loaded with books about alchemy. So rooms also had a few apprentices studying.
These apprentices should all be Alchemy Apprentices. Allegedly, there were about two hundred Alchemy Apprentices in the Azure Dragon Academy, but true alchemists were few and far between, and among these two hundred plus apprentices, perhaps only three or four would eventually succeed in becoming alchemists.
