Pill Tower On the top floor, outside a hall.
Chen Guan waited for a long time until the last elder left and then pushed the door open.
On the main seat, Xuan Kongzi, who was dressed in a pale white robe, was rubbing his eyebrows gently, looking a little tired. On his left and right sides, Tian Leizi and Xuan Yi were also in similar mental states.
It makes them all feel tired. You can imagine how heavy the work has been recently.
"Teacher, two Martial Uncle."
Chen Guan bowed and saluted. It was the first time to meet in such a formal hall. I was not used to it.
Hearing the sound, Xuan Kongzi looked up and was slightly shocked when he realized that Chen Guan's strength had reached Two-Star Dou Zun, and his smile became fuller.
"Well, it's not bad. What happened this time... I guessed the outcome after I learned that you invited Sound Valley. You really don't mind it. These are four Heavenly Lords, one of whom is Half-Saint. In decades, Soul Hall has not suffered such a heavy loss. It is foreseeable that the dog will jump over the wall."
Without any further nonsense, Xuan Kongzi went straight to the point. His scolding words seemed completely blameless under the gloating look on his face.
Chen Guan also knew that there was quite a big fuss this time, so he was smiling down below.
"As for the Soul Hall, as far as I know, the master of their palace is the real Dou Saint Expert. However, this person's whereabouts are elusive and rarely appear in front of people. There are rumors that he is the man of Eight Ancient Clans. If this matter comes to his ears and he personally goes to deal with you, the three of us will not be able to protect ourselves."
"But..."
"I, Pill Tower, can be as famous as Soul Hall, One Hall, One Tower. It's not just my superficial strength. The real foundation is those old guys Little Pill Tower. I have already communicated with them before you came back. Unfortunately, these old guys are too pedantic. They have almost worn out my words. They are still not ready to take action. They are extremely pedantic!"
When Little Pill Tower was mentioned, Xuan Kongzi became very angry.
Hearing this, Chen Guan looked very solemn. If Soul Hall Dou Saint Expert did not have the support of Little Pill Tower, he would end up in person, wouldn't he be a mercenary?
Perhaps, only by moving the family to the Jia Nan Academy Underground Magma World and relying on the road of Old Dragon Emperor can we be safe.
Seeing Chen Guan starting to get nervous, Xuan Kongzi finally changed the subject.
"Although I didn't convince them this time, it was not a wasted trip. With the insistence of me and you Martial Aunt Xuan Yi, the small Pill Tower Grand Elder hospital decided to select the last seat of Tenth Elder two years in advance., and you, as this Pill Gathering Champion, and also the Pill Tower Giant candidate, are qualified to participate in the selection. As long as you can be selected, we will have six votes, and they will not be able to participate even if they want to!"
"Great Elder's Courtyard?"
Chen Guan has a slight impression, but doesn't know much about it.
In fact, there is very little information about Little Pill Tower in Original Work.
"Yes, unlike the outside world where the three of us have absolute say, in Little Pill Tower, any decision must pass the vote of Great Elder's Courtyard."
"There are ten seats in Great Elder's Courtyard. As Three Greats of the Pill Tower, the three of me do not participate in the internal affairs of Little Pill Tower on weekdays. However, I also have the right to vote on major events, so I occupy three of them."
"Besides us, there are two other elders who have a huge grudge against the Soul Hall. Their disciples have all fallen into the hands of the Soul Hall. Counting them, we already have five votes here."
"Originally, there are only nine seats in Great Elder's Courtyard, and the candidate for the last seat has not yet been determined. Our five votes can already decide everything, but the problem lies in the candidates for this last seat. Without your appearance, this last seat is almost universally recognized as Old Monster Hou has everything in his pocket. Therefore, although there are still two years until the final seat is officially selected, after unanimous agreement, he has the right to participate in the voting in advance. He never thought that he would be shooting himself in the foot by coming out to oppose us at this time."
Xuan Yi took over and explained that with her temperament, she felt helpless even talking about it at this time.
This is probably a true portrayal of plans failing to keep up with changes.
Xuan Kongzi and Tian Leizi were equally depressed, and they also came up with solutions.
"After our struggle, Great Elder's Courtyard decided to select Tenth Seat Elder in advance. Your opponent is only Old Monster Hou. As long as you beat him in the assessment, in the future Little Pill Tower, we only need to bring over the two elders who have a grudge against the Soul Hall, and we will be able to dominate!"
Chen Guan nodded slightly, finally understanding the basic operation process of Little Pill Tower.
"Is this elder candidate also Grade 8 Alchemist?"
Since we are in Pill Tower, the assessment will definitely not be a competition of Dou Qi's strength, but most likely the most common alchemy.
Xuan Kongzi nodded and said with a smile, "Speaking of which, Old Monster Hou, Yao Chen, and Qing Hua are also old acquaintances. That Pill Gathering, he can He is a strong contender for the championship. At that time, he was able to refine Eighth-Tier Pill of Three-Colored Pill Lightning. Now, decades later, I estimate that he can definitely refine Eighth-Tier Pill of Seven-Colored Pill Lightning!"
The lowest is Seven-Colored Pill Lightning, the highest is unknown.
At this level, it is indeed a strong rival of Chen Guan.
After all, the one he refined on Pill Gathering is just Eight-Colored Pill Lightning.
Nodding slightly, Chen Guan took it seriously, but was not afraid.
Eight-Colored Pill Lightning's Eighth-Tier Pill is the level he was at Pill Gathering, but it is not his current limit!
"It's a pity that the ancestor has no voice and cannot be contacted. Otherwise, why bother so much."
Tian Leizi sighed with regret.
The speaker was unintentional, but the listener was intentional. Chen Guan also remembered some of the information in Original Trajectory.
Seeing his expression, Xuan Kongzi thought he was curious, so he immediately explained briefly.
"You haven't been to Central Plains for a short time, so you may not know something. This ancestor can be said to be one of the founders of Pill Tower and the oldest person in Pill Tower. His words influence any decision of Pill Tower."
"If the ancestor were present this time, with his protective temperament, there would never be any problem."
Xuan Kongzi hesitated for a moment and then said, "Unfortunately, this ancestor likes to play with the world, and the dragon never comes to an end. Even the three of us have only met him once in so many years. What the ancestor likes to do most is to look for pregnant women. Of course, his target is not the pregnant women themselves, but the fetuses in their bellies. To be more precise, they are some fetuses that have lost their breath of life before leaving the mother's body due to accidents."
"After finding these aborted fetuses, they will enter the pregnant woman's body in a special way, and finally become an ordinary baby. They will be born, grow, and live in another identity for a lifetime. They will not leave until the body finally dies completely. In the words of our ancestors, this is experiencing life."
"The last time I saw our ancestor, he acted like a young man. It has been decades since now. If it weren't for the fact that ancestor Soul Jade Slip is still intact, we would probably all think that something unexpected happened to him."
"It is precisely because of these reasons that unless the ancestor takes the initiative to contact us, it is almost impossible for us to find him."
Speaking of this ancestor, Xuan Kongzi's tone was full of helplessness.
Good news, there is someone behind us, a very powerful man.
Bad news, we have lost contact for many years...
Chen Guan nodded slightly, with more plans in mind.
In memory, when Pill Tower Ancestor first appeared, it seemed that he was in the form of a shepherd boy riding a green bull on the plain where Purifying Lotus Demon Flame was located? With this information, can I try to search for it secretly? Although Central Plains is large, it has a certain range, and I believe there are not many people who fit this image.
If you can't find it, you won't lose anything. If you find it, it will be a giant. Eight Ancient Clans can almost walk sideways without leaving Eight Ancient Clans!
"The ancestor has a free personality, which may be related to the fact that his body is an elixir. The senior who refined him was once one of the founders of Pill Tower. If not for the refining process, a trace of consciousness was integrated into the elixir in a strange way, causing the elixir that reached Ninth Grade Profound Pill to mutate. The ancestor would probably not care about Pill Tower."
"Although these things are secret, they are not secrets. Just listen to it, have a good rest tonight, and come with us to Little Pill Tower early tomorrow morning!"
