The Martial Emperor with Dragon Blood

Chapter 1351 - 1352: Battle Against the Pill Demon’s Successor

"Damn it!"

Yang Rong bit her silver teeth tightly, her face turning pale.

"What’s wrong?"

Ye Mo didn’t know what the Pill Demon’s descendant said to Yang Rong, but from Yang Rong’s expression, the other party surely didn’t say anything good.

"He said that he will bribe the elders of the Dan Clan for tomorrow’s qualifying match, so there’s a high chance you’ll face the Pill Demon’s descendant in the first round."

Yang Rong spoke with furrowed brows, having encountered the Pill Demon’s descendant, she naturally knew the strength of the opponent.

"Oh? If he’s so eager to be eliminated, that’s just perfect, so we don’t have to wait for him to reach the finals and ruin the top three."

Ye Mo said coldly.

Only the top three have rich rewards, the Pill Demon’s descendant wants to manipulate things, but that’s just asking for trouble.

"Ye Mo, are you really confident in dealing with the Pill Demon’s descendant? I’ve heard he can refine pills with markings, even the elders of the Dan Clan may not be able to surpass him."

Yang Rong asked worriedly.

"I’ve already said, this time I’m sure to win the championship of the alchemy competition."

Ye Mo spoke calmly, and slowly disappeared into the crowd.

Yang Rong stared at Ye Mo’s back, a bit shocked. To be honest, Yang Rong had some confidence in Ye Mo reaching the top three, but tomorrow he was facing the Pill Demon’s descendant, a genius alchemist with championship strength. Could he really win?

Ye Mo returned to his room, eagerly anticipating tomorrow’s competition, as the number of participants had reduced to one hundred, so the qualifying and final rounds would be held together.

"Soon I’ll be able to get the Heavenly Spirit Resurrection Pill."

Ye Mo knew that he was getting closer to obtaining the Heavenly Spirit Resurrection Pill.

Early the next day, Dan City Square was crowded with people. Today’s competition would be more intense and tense because it was the qualifying match.

"I’ve announced the results of yesterday’s elimination round, now the qualifying round begins. You’ll be randomly transported into the same space for the duel, with three rounds scheduled. Based on everyone’s performance, the top ten will be determined, and then move into the finals."

"Now, let the contest begin!"

With the sound of a whistle, Dan Dongfeng’s voice echoed once again.

The Pill Saint sat atop a sea of clouds, idly fiddling with a pill.

"Pill Saint, your alchemy skills have broken through again?"

One of the Dan Clan elders, smelling the fragrance, saw the pill in the Pill Saint’s hand and was immediately surprised.

"No, this was purchased from the trading market in Dan City, a Supreme Divine Venerate Pill."

The Pill Saint said seriously.

"What? Supreme Divine Venerate Pill?"

Suddenly, several other elders of the Dan Clan were astonished.

"I asked old Yang Zu about it, he wouldn’t reveal anything about the seller, saying only a mysterious elder sold them, and they sold 4000 Supreme Divine Venerate Pills in one go."

The Pill Saint said.

"Such level Divine Venerate Pills aren’t easily refined by just anyone. I’ve seen pills that emit fragrance, but they were only eighth-grade elixirs. Ninth-grade elixirs, wanting to emit such fragrance, is usually impossible. Even you, Pill Saint, couldn’t manage it."

"Yes, eighth-grade elixirs, I can indeed refine them to supreme quality, but not every pill can emit fragrance."

The Pill Saint nodded, the emergence of the Supreme Divine Venerate Pill made him feel a sense of crisis, his title as Pill Saint might soon be taken away by someone else.

"The contest is about to start, that Ye Mo is also someone to watch. His opponent drew the Pill Demon’s descendant, which is quite interesting, looks like he’ll be halted in the qualifying rounds."

"The Pill Demon’s descendant has the strength to compete for the championship, it seems that this Ye Mo will be unlucky. With his talents, he should have at least reached the top ten."

Several elders shifted their discussion, talking about the match between Ye Mo and the Pill Demon’s descendant.

Ye Mo entered the void space, indeed, as Yang Rong mentioned, the Pill Demon’s descendant’s manipulation succeeded, the first-round opponent in the qualifying match was the Pill Demon’s descendant.

"Hmph!"

The Pill Demon’s descendant saw Ye Mo and sneered coldly: "Ye Mo, you represent the Yang family clan in the contest, if you don’t make it into the top three this time, the Yang family clan will be ousted from the Three Great Families. Today, you face me, and I won’t let you reach the finals."

"Not reach the finals?"

Ye Mo laughed loudly: "Pill Demon’s descendant, you think being the Pill Demon’s descendant guarantees victory over me?"

"Haha, my alchemy skills as the Pill Demon’s descendant, how could you comprehend them? Even if those old monsters of the Dan Clan would come, I wouldn’t fear them."

The Pill Demon’s descendant shouted abruptly: "Today, I will use my alchemy skills to utterly crush you, show you what a genius alchemist truly is."

Buzz!

At that moment, herbs appeared in the space, the ingredients for the competition.

"This time the competition involves refining Divine Venerate Pills, one of the easiest ninth-grade elixirs to refine, yet still a test of alchemy skills."

The Pill Demon’s descendant knew their contest was to refine Divine Venerate Pills and secretly thought, perhaps the higher-ups knew of their duel and set such a question deliberately.

Competing by refining Divine Venerate Pills.

"Ye Mo, Divine Venerate Pills are one of the easier pills to refine. Perhaps you don’t know, I have the ability to refine Divine Venerate Pills with markings, which even those old timers couldn’t achieve, only the Pill Saint could surpass me. Today, I’ll let you witness what markings are, probably you’ve never seen a Divine Venerate Pill with markings in your life, have you?"

The Pill Demon’s descendant said coldly.

Without waiting for Ye Mo to speak, he took a pill furnace and began refining.

It must be admitted, the Pill Demon’s descendant’s techniques were so skilled, even compared to veteran alchemists, he wasn’t lacking at all. Especially his fire control method, which surpassed Dan Yifan, a grandmaster-level alchemist.

Even several elders from the Dan Clan, as well as the Pill Saint, turned their attention here, amazed at the Pill Demon’s descendant’s methods, likely he was using anger to act with no reservation.

"That’s the Demon Fire Hand technique, a fire control method that can control flames to perfection."

The Pill Saint said in surprise.

"Demon Fire Hand? It’s Demon Fire Hand, the technique can control the flame’s temperature to the best, during refinement, enhancing the purity of the pill to its peak. Looks like the Pill Demon’s descendant indeed held back before."

Boom!

With a loud explosion, the Pill Demon’s descendant withdrew his movements, flicked his sleeve, and the lid of the furnace was flipped open, a hundred Divine Venerate Pills flew out.

Those hundred Divine Venerate Pills all had deep markings on their surface, their purity exceeding ninety percent, reaching ninety-one percent.

"This is the Divine Venerate Pill with markings!"

The Pill Demon’s descendant’s face was full of pride, knowing many were watching him. The appearance of Divine Venerate Pills with markings would definitely cause a huge sensation. He wanted to completely defeat Ye Mo at this time, plunging Yang Rong into despair, making the Yang family clan desperate, only then he could repay his past grievances, letting go of the hatred in his heart.
