Chapter 8 Chapter 8 Advance to Seven Stars, the final test

On the bed, Xiao Yan was sitting cross-legged. At this time, the energy of the world in the room was fluctuating slightly violently. Circles of energy ripples visible to the naked eye were gushing out of Xiao Yan's body, and his robes were also invisible. The wind was blown up automatically, and on the dignified face, a faint green glow loomed. As waves of energy from the surrounding world continuously poured into Xiao Yan's body, the azure light on his face became more and more intense. In the end, the azure light almost covered his entire face. It is also gradually rising. When the heightened aura reached a certain level, the fluctuating energy around suddenly stopped suddenly. Even with the stillness of the energy, the bulging robe on Xiao Yan's body was as if stiff, unable to move. move.

This strange stillness lasted for nearly ten seconds. Xiao Yan, who had his eyes tightly closed, opened suddenly, and the blue flame surged up instantly, and then quickly faded away. shoot. The body maintained the cultivation posture, Xiao Yan opened his mouth slightly, and a mouthful of slightly black turbid air was spit out.The black air lingered upwards, and everything it touched was corroded. When it rose all the way and corroded a hole in the roof, it gradually turned into nothingness under the sunlight. After exhaling the turbid air, the sharp light in Xiao Yan's eyes also quietly faded away, the stiff robe was softly attached to the skin again, and the aura lingering in the room was also taken back into the body.

"Seven Star Fighter..." Xiao Yan clenched his fist slightly, the feeling of full power in his body made Xiao Yan a little intoxicated. Although he knew that according to the previous progress, he would be able to enter the seven-star level sooner or later, but he still didn't expect it. He only absorbed Nalan three times. The branding poison in Jie's body made him rise to a higher level. "The energy in Dou Wang's body is really vast and surging. It's only been absorbed three times, but it's enough energy for me to upgrade..." Xiao Yan murmured in a low voice, twisting his body strangely. Hearing the crisp crackling sounds coming from his body, he couldn't help but smile with satisfaction: "This deal seems to be quite a bargain."

Supporting his palms on the bed, exerting a little force, his body bounced out vigorously, then rolled in the air and landed lightly on the ground. Xiao Yan clapped his hands, looked around, frowned and muttered: "Why haven't you come back yet?" Frowning and pondering for a while, Xiao Yan, who had no results, could only shake his head helplessly, then opened the door and walked out.Tomorrow is the start of the alchemist conference, and now he needs to go to the guild to inquire about the various competitions and modes of the conference. After leaving the hotel, Xiao Yan stood on the street and looked around.Then he walked towards the alchemist guild where he could see a towering corner even from a long distance away.

Walking along the way, Xiao Yan was a little surprised to find that on some main streets in the city, there were already heavily armed knight troops patrolling.Apparently, this was because the alchemist conference was about to be held.After all, if there is such a huge grand event, if there is a commotion, it will have a great impact on the imperial capital, so the royal family naturally needs to take precautions before it happens. Slowly walking through several spacious streets, the huge alchemist guild finally appeared in sight.Looking at the doorway that looked more crowded than two days ago, Xiao Yan shook his head helplessly.It seems that many alchemists want to make their mark in this conference.

With his hands behind his back, Xiao Yan walked slowly towards the guild, and when he turned his footsteps, he squeezed into the crowd.Just as he was about to follow the flow of people into the guild, there was a sudden commotion not far behind him, and all the eyes around him were cast in the past. The flow of people in front stopped entering, Xiao Yan was also blocked in the middle, he sighed helplessly, turned his head with a slight frown, and looked at the source of the commotion. The source of the commotion was a very aristocratic carriage.In front of the carriage, two horses with snow-white fur without any impurities stood quietly.On the golden brocade curtain around the carriage, a strange beast with blue flames rising from its body was drawn.The alien beast is not small in size, and its overall appearance is quite ferocious, and it looks faintly shocking.

"The badge of the royal family..." Staring at the unknown beast badge, Xiao Yan murmured in a low voice. As a member of the Jia Ma Empire, he was able to know the badge of the Jia Ma royal family. Around the carriage was accompanied by a dozen or so people wrapped in black robes. His eyes swept over these black robes, and Xiao Yan's pupils shrank slightly. In his perception, these ten black robes actually gave him A sense of danger. "As expected of the royal family of the Jia Ma Empire, their strength should not be underestimated." After a little bit of admiration in his heart, Xiao Yan cast his eyes on the car curtain.

A black-robed man stepped forward and respectfully raised the curtain. When the black-robed man raised the curtain, Xiao Yan could clearly sense that the other black-robed men around him had already faintly and quickly moved in subtle movements. Forming a small circle, protecting the carriage in the middle, at the same time, one after another, eagle-like sharp eyes shot out from the black robe, and then scanned the crowded crowd back and forth. Under the gaze of everyone around, a slender hand as white as jade stretched out from the curtain of the car, gracefully holding the handle of the car door, and then, a beautiful figure walked out slowly, appearing in everyone's eyes. in people's sight.

The person who appeared was wearing a purple dress with silver patterns. His exquisite appearance, under the influence of the royal family, revealed a faint innate noble temperament, with a slender waist, Wearing a purple belt, it showed her small waist to the fullest. She didn't seem to be very old, and she looked about the same as Xiao Yan before she changed her face. There was a little smile on her pretty face, which seemed quite Something elegant and serene.However, every time she glanced around, Xiao Yan found that this girl who seemed to be very lady-like, had some weird smiles flashing in Shui Yinyin's eyes. Obviously, this girl It is not a master who likes to be quiet, as it appears on the surface.

"Women really can't just look at the surface..." Shaking his head with a wry smile, Xiao Yan withdrew his gaze, and stopped looking at this girl who seemed to have an unusual status. "Tsk tsk, what a beautiful little girl..." Looking at the girl in the purple skirt who appeared, the crowd around burst into applause, and some fiery gazes quickly cast over. There are so many people, and there seems to be nothing wrong with the eyes being a little presumptuous. "Hey, this is the little princess of the Jia Ma royal family. I heard that her teacher is the vice president, Master Qie Mier. She will appear here this time. She must be here for the alchemist conference." There were many people in the crowd. The well-informed people, after seeing the girl's appearance, recognized her identity.

"She doesn't seem very old, does she? She can even compete for the conference?" "C'mon, the little princess's talent in alchemy is even admired by the president. Regardless of her young age, I heard that as early as half a year ago, she was promoted to a third-rank alchemist..." "Uh..." Hearing this, the surrounding crowd suddenly went into an uproar. Some older middle-aged alchemists all blushed and raised their arms, embarrassingly covering their rank badges on their chests. Squeezed in the crowd, listening to those people's conversation, Xiao Yan also had a flash of surprise on his face, and once again cast his eyes on the girl in the purple skirt who was walking towards the guild under the protection of the man in black, and said in his heart: "Sure enough A mountain is higher than a mountain, I didn't expect this girl who looks so weak to be a third-rank pharmacist..." However, although he was amazed in his heart, Xiao Yan didn't have too many surprises. With the rich background of the Jia Ma royal family, as long as this little princess has the most basic talent to become a pharmacist, then they can use those mountainous materials, It's easy to smash it into a high-level alchemist, not to mention that now it seems that the little princess's alchemy talent is very good, so it is expected that she has such an achievement. Under the protection of the group of men in black robes who were surrounded by a bit of a cold aura, the girl in the purple skirt passed through the crowd without any hindrance, and then walked into the alchemist guild swaggeringly. As the girl's seemingly elegant back disappeared from sight, Xiao Yan shrugged his shoulders, twisted his body slightly, like a loach, squeezed away the surrounding crowd without a trace, and quickly rushed towards the guild. Squeezing away the last layer of people, the surrounding space finally became spacious. Looking at the vast hall, Xiao Yan let out a long breath, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and then faced the hall with ease. Go west. At the gate of the West District, there were still the two guards from last time. Seeing Xiao Yan's arrival, they did not stop him as before. After bending over to salute, they ignored his entry. Seeing the situation, It must be because of Otto's special order. Seeing that the guards didn't stop him, Xiao Yan was happy to save some trouble. He walked into the corridor, then walked upstairs slowly, and finally stopped outside the room where Otto was last time, and knocked on the door lightly. Only after Otto's voice was heard from inside did he open the door and enter. In the room, only Otto was sitting in it. At this time, he was looking at Xiao Yan who came in with a smile: "Little guy, it's quite punctual." Xiao Yan smiled, sat down on the chair beside Otto, took a sip from his teacup, and said with a smile: "Hehe, I don't want to talk nonsense. I came here this time mainly to ask whether this competition is What form? A lottery, or something else?" "There are so many contestants, if they come one by one by lottery, how long will it take?" Otto shook his head with a smile, drew a big box on the table with his fingers, and said with a smile: "All Alchemists will all participate on a huge platform at the same time, and the conditions of the competition will gradually become harsher, and when the time comes, they will be like sifting sand through a sieve, quickly removing some unqualified ones, and being able to Those who remain are the best among them, and whoever stands out among these best will be the final winner." "Oh..." Xiao Yan nodded slightly, thinking of hundreds of pharmacists setting fire to refine medicine on the same platform, the spectacular scene must be extremely spectacular. "Hehe, I really want to see that kind of scene, don't you? Don't be intimidated when the time comes. I was also shocked when I participated for the first time." As if knowing what Xiao Yan was thinking, Ao Tor laughed. "By the way, here is a list. Take a look. These are some very powerful players in this conference." Otto took a scroll from the table, handed it to Xiao Yan, and immediately added Said: "This is an internal document, and according to the rules, it cannot be leaked." Taking the scroll with some curiosity, Xiao Yan nodded with a smile, and slowly spread it out. On the long list, there are at least twenty or thirty powerful people listed. Yan raised his brows suddenly, and he found that Liu Ling was also ranked above, and was still extremely high. It seems that the name of the successor of the Pill King was not based on bragging. "This little princess should be the one from the royal family, right?" Xiao Yan pointed at the fifth-ranked little princess and said. "Well, have you seen it?" "I saw her at the door just now, I didn't expect her to be so high." Xiao Yan smiled, a little surprised by her ranking. "Don't underestimate that girl. With the support of the royal family, her cards are dazzling." Otto reminded with a smile. Slightly nodding his head, Xiao Yan carefully read the information on the list, and then handed it back to Ao Tuo: "The opponents are really strong. There are as many as thirteen third-rank pharmacists alone." "It's a little troublesome, but it's up to you. There's only so much I can help." Nodding, Otto said helplessly. Xiao Yan nodded with a smile, and asked, "The meeting starts tomorrow? What else do I need to do now?" "Hehe, there is indeed something that needs to be done. This is the last prediction before the competition. Outsiders don't have this prediction, but we, the players recommended by the presidents of various branches, must need this item... This can be regarded as a kind of pre-examination of our vision by the guild. If we fail the test here, I am afraid that our recommendation will be invalid." Otto stood up and said with a smile: "Come with me, here , you can meet some strong opponents on the list." "En." Nodding his head, Xiao Yan got up and followed Otto. The two walked out from the side door, walked along a quiet corridor for a while, and when they reached the end, they pushed open the door on the side and approached slowly. Entering the gate, a strong light suddenly shot in, causing Xiao Yan to involuntarily narrow his eyes, and opened them only after he got used to it. What appeared in front of him was a spacious inner hall with rather classical decoration. In the inner hall at this time, there were some people standing in twos and threes. Xiao Yan glanced over these people, and was a little surprised to find that these people looked rather strange. Many of the young people are at the level of third-rank alchemists, and the little princess of the empire that I saw at the gate before is also among them. His eyes turned again, and finally he paused with a raised eyebrow, who was talking with several third-rank alchemists. The pharmacist laughed and talked about a handsome young man. Liu Ling... Hearing the sound of the door opening, the group of people who were whispering in the hall also stopped talking and turned their eyes to the door. When they saw Xiao Yan who came in, they were all taken aback for a moment. After picking up the badges, everyone's expressions were slightly joking. Leaning against the wall, the little princess who was being surrounded by a few alchemists like stars and the moon also glanced at Xiao Yan, but when she saw the latter's rank badge, she completely lost interest and became lazy. Stretching lazily, her attractive curves caught the eyes of the men around her. Staring lazily at Xiao Yan, Liu Ling was slightly taken aback by his entry, but immediately after, some feminine smiles appeared on his face, which seemed to have malicious intentions. Eyebrows lowered slightly, Xiao Yan was not moved by the various gazes in the hall. His hands were hanging down his sleeves, and his indifferent face looked like an old monk in meditation. However, in his heart, there was a hint of Sneak slightly.
