The Heavenly Lake Holy Lord, a Titan of the Dao of Alchemy

The location chosen for the Dragon-Seeking Sect in Central Province was outside the North Pole Region.

Zhuge Yi originally intended for the Dragon-Seeking Sect to be located in the North Pole Region.

In this way, they will not be subject to any attacks.

However, Chen Ning politely declined Zhuge Yi's offer.

They insisted on temporarily setting the mountain gate North Pole Region.

From this point of view...

Zhuge Yi became even more convinced that Sect Leader Chen was no ordinary person and would surely become a great figure in the future.

If the Dragon-Seeking Sect is located in the North Pole Region.

They can receive the protection of the Star God Palace.

No one dares to cause trouble in the North Pole Region yet.

However, Sect Leader Chen insisted on establishing the sect's gate outside the North Pole Region, which precisely highlights the pride of the Dragon-Seeking Sect.

Unwilling to accept protection from others.

They were even less willing to be seen as dependent on the Star God Palace.

Zhuge Yi's smile grew even wider.

Sect Leader Chen has already displayed such charisma since arriving in Central Province.

It seems that my nephew's friendship with Sect Leader Chen was definitely the right decision.

"Sect Leader Chen, I cannot interfere with the selection of the mountain gate's location, but if the Dragon-Seeking Sect has any needs, please be sure to speak up and do not hesitate."

"Alright! If there's any need, we'll have to trouble the Star God Palace."

Chen Ning smiled and agreed.

"No need for such formalities. If Sect Leader Chen doesn't mind, I'll take the liberty of having you call me Uncle, just like A-Bai."

"Very well! I'll accept your offer. Thank you for your help these past few days, Uncle Yi."

Zhuge Yi smiled and said, "It's nothing, nothing at all."

However, after a moment, he sighed and said, "Sect Leader Chen, although the Dragon-Seeking Sect has entered the Central Province, we will likely be subject to attacks for some time to come."

"When soldiers come, generals will block them; when water comes, earth will dam it."

Chen Ning smiled slightly.

He understood this as well.

Those super powers, although they did not openly retaliate against the Dragon-Seeking Sect.

However, it's impossible to simply stand by and watch the Dragon-Seeking Sect gain a foothold in Central Province.

At this time.

Their underlings are probably about to cause some trouble.

There are plenty of people willing to risk their lives for a superpower.

However, Chen Ning's top priority right now is to meet with the Heavenly Lake Holy Lord.

But this is not so easy.

Heavenly Lake Holy Land is the number one power in the Nine Provinces.

Secure your position at the top.

How could one so easily meet the leader of such a transcendent power?

Not to mention himself, even when the Heavenly Lake Secret Realm opened last time, with so many geniuses gathering, the Heavenly Lake Holy Lord did not show up.

They simply arranged for a highly respected elder to oversee the entire operation.

Thinking of this, Chen Ning couldn't help but look at Zhuge Yi and ask, "Does Uncle Yi know how to meet the Heavenly Lake Holy Lord?"

"Sect Leader Chen wishes to see the Heavenly Lake Holy Lord?"

Zhuge Yi's eyes flickered.

"Exactly."

"That's rather difficult. The Heavenly Lake Holy Lord is highly respected and acts on a whim, often traveling throughout the Nine Provinces. Not to mention Sect Leader Chen, even my father can't easily get a glimpse of the Holy Lord."

After Zhuge Yi spoke.

Chen Ning also frowned.

As expected.

Just as I expected, the Heavenly Lake Holy Lord is not so easy to meet.

Even the former master of the Star God Palace cannot be seen.

Not to mention myself.

At this moment, Zhuge Yi spoke up again, "However, it's not that there's no way out. The Heavenly Lake Holy Lord not only possesses unfathomable cultivation, but he is also a giant in Dao of Alchemy. People only know that there are two Alchemist Grandmaster in Central Province, but they don't know that the Heavenly Lake Holy Lord's attainments in alchemy are several levels higher than those two Alchemist Grandmaster."

The mention of alchemy instantly banishes my sleepiness.

Chen Ning's heart skipped a beat.

They perked up.

Zhuge Yi continued, "The Heavenly Lake Holy Lord is devoted to alchemy and has made considerable achievements in the art. Perhaps through this channel, we can meet the Heavenly Lake Holy Lord."

Chen Ning quickly said, "Please tell me in detail, Uncle Yi."

" In Central Province, there is a powerful force called Medicine King Valley. Every year, it invites Alchemist Master from all over the Nine Provinces to gather together and select the most outstanding one. This person will then have the opportunity to meet the Heavenly Lake Holy Lord and discuss the Dao of Alchemy. Every Alchemist Master who meets the Heavenly Lake Holy Lord benefits greatly and often makes further progress in the following years. Some of them even go on to refine first-grade pills and thus advance to the Alchemist Grandmaster."

"If Sect Leader Chen wishes to meet the Heavenly Lake Holy Lord, he might consider attending the upcoming Dao of Alchemy Ceremony at Medicine King Valley. Coincidentally, the Medicine King Valley Ceremony begins in half a month."

About Medicine King Valley.

Chen Ning had also done some research.

It belongs to a first-rate sect.

It is precisely the forces that are attached to the Heavenly Lake Holy Land.

Its status in Central Province is also quite special.

Even the other nine super powers would Medicine King Valley some face.

This is because behind it stands the colossal Heavenly Lake Holy Land.

After hearing Zhuge Yi's words, Medicine King Valley became a place Chen Ning had to visit.

Compared to other things, it might fall short.

But when it comes to alchemy, Chen Ning has boundless confidence.

Five days later.

North Pole Region.

On a towering, celestial mountain that reaches into the clouds.

The Dragon-Seeking Sect has finally settled down for the time being.

Everything is proceeding smoothly and in an orderly manner.

This mountain is called Azure Cloud Mountain, a blessed place, which was also chosen with the help of the Star God Palace.

Just as Chen Ning stood atop the peak, watching the craftsmen of the North Pole Region construct houses, pavilions, and palaces, Lu Ping ran up from a short distance away, clasped his hands in greeting, and said, "Sect Leader, the jade pillars of the mountain gate had just been erected when someone attacked from the shadows, firing hidden weapons to sabotage them. After succeeding, they vanished again, disappearing into the distance. My fellow disciples investigated and discovered that many people were watching around Azure Cloud Mountain; there was more than one group."

"They arrived relatively quickly."

Chen Ning had long anticipated that things wouldn't go so smoothly.

Even though this place is very close to the North Pole Region, many people still dare to come and monitor and harass it.

"Sect Leader!"

Another disciple approached and reported, "A fire broke out on the back mountain. The flames were extremely treacherous. It was only thanks to the Second Elder's intervention that the fire was extinguished. Ten junior brothers were injured while fighting the flames, but fortunately, they are all unharmed."

"Sect Leader, this isn't the first time. It's been nonstop for the past few days. Someone even murdered the craftsmen who came to the mountain to build the palace, which is why the progress has been so slow. It's only because my fellow disciples have been working day and night that we've seen some results."

"Okay, I understand."

Chen Ning squinted and looked down at the foot of the mountain in the distance.

The Pill Gathering at Medicine King Valley is still ten days away, and I'm currently worried about having nothing to do.

Perfect.

Let's see what these shrimp soldiers and crab generals who jumped out can do.

Evening.

On a mountain peak a thousand miles away from Azure Cloud Mountain.

This place is the territory of the Gale Sect.

The Gale Sect is a second-rate power in Central Province.

They were able to remain active in the Central Province only because they were affiliated with the Wind and Thunder Divine Cult.

Meanwhile, inside the main hall...

Feng Yiyang, seated at the head of the table, raised his wine glass and said, "Gentlemen, you've all worked hard these past few days, but it was all to fulfill the orders of that great man of the Divine Cult. I urge you all to continue your efforts. I toast you all!"

Feng Yiyang.

Everyone in the hall drank their wine and exclaimed how enjoyable it was.

Although this wasn't a particularly glamorous mission, the Wind and Thunder Divine Cult Sect was very generous and truly treated the Gale Sect well.

Therefore, everyone in the Gale Sect was working very hard to monitor the movements of the Dragon-Seeking Sect.
