Holy Pill City

Unfortunately, Xiao Ming didn't look at Hei Qing at all; his gesturing was completely ineffective.

But what Xiao Ming said next delighted him, and his expression towards Xiao Ming became even more gentle.

Xiao Ming gently patted Zi Yan's head and said, "Zi Yan, we've finally got news from our relatives, let's go back and see them."

Xiao Ming didn't say much. He understood that Zi Yan would eventually choose to go back; she had too many unanswered questions in her heart.

As expected, after Xiao Ming's persuasion, Zi Yan pondered for a moment, nodded heavily, and said to Hei Qing, "Okay, I'll go back with you, but you have to take Xiao Ming and the others back with you!"

Hei Qing was overjoyed to hear Zi Yan's request, but her subsequent request left him somewhat helpless.

It wasn't that he had any prejudice against Xiao Ming and the others; on the contrary, he admired Xiao Ming.

However, Elder Zhu Li did not allow him to bring anyone else back to Dragon Island, as bringing others back Elder Zhu Li.

Fortunately, Xiao Ming did not make things difficult for Hei Qing.

"Zi Yan, you go back with him. We won't go home with you this time."

"Why? Xiao Ming, didn't we agree that you would come home with me?"

Zi Yan looked up in surprise, a hint of confusion in her purple pupils.

"I will go with you to the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan, but not now. If you want to find us, you can come and find me, right? Senior Hei Qing said you are the Dragon Emperor of the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan. I believe they won't stop you from doing something so trivial."

"You agree, right, Senior Hei Qing?"

"Ah, yes, yes, yes, if you miss them, you can come out then." Hei Qing nodded frantically in agreement.

"..."

Hearing that she could escape, Zi Yan reluctantly agreed in the end, and was then taken away by Hei Qing.

Looking at the spatial passage that had been easily torn apart by the Hei Qing, Xiao Ming took a deep breath.

"What's wrong? Are you a little reluctant to Zi Yan?" Xiao Yi Xian asked softly upon seeing this.

"A little, but the separation is only temporary." With a light laugh, Xiao Ming didn't say anything more.

Inside the Spatial Wormhole, the atmosphere was as monotonous as ever, but this time it was no longer quiet. Countless Spatial Ship flashed by along a wide spatial passage, filling the passage with a cacophony of noise.

A day later, in the far reaches of the Spatial Wormhole, a ring of silver light appeared faintly, radiating astonishing Spatial Fluctuation.

As they approached the silver halo of light near the exit, the clamor emanating from the countless Spatial Ship suddenly and eerily fell silent.

One after another, figures dressed in Alchemist robes emerged from the Spatial Ship, their eyes fixed on the silver halo with fervor.

Holy Pill City, a sacred place in the hearts of all Alchemist!

Spatial Ship streaked across the dark sky like shooting stars, then swarmed into the enormous silver halo like fish entering the sea.

The black Spatial Ship that Xiao Ming and the others were on also followed the trend, braving the extremely violent Spatial Fluctuation, and swept into the light circle before disappearing from sight.

As it entered the silver light circle, the intense Spatial Fluctuation caused the entire Spatial Ship to shake violently.

However, this turbulence only lasted for less than ten seconds before gradually dissipating. The silver light that filled Xiao Ming and the others' vision also became weaker and weaker. After a while, the silver light suddenly burst forth, and the dazzling light made Xiao Ming and the others habitually squint their eyes.

As Xiao Ming and the others closed their eyes, a gentle breeze suddenly blew towards them, its tender touch gradually relaxing their tense hearts from their journey.

However, just as they were beginning to relax, an extremely jarring, noise-like cacophony suddenly filled their ears, causing them to frown slightly.

As Xiao Ming slowly opened his eyes, what appeared in his vision was a vast plaza entirely constructed of crimson rock. This plaza stretched as far as the eye could see, with the only visible feature being a red line that extended to the very end of his line of sight.

Judging from its appearance, it must be at least several thousand meters wide. Standing in it, Xiao Ming and the others looked like tiny ants, completely inconspicuous.

At this moment, the crimson square was almost packed with people, and an overwhelming cacophony of noise emanated from it, eventually converging and soaring into the sky. Even the clouds on the horizon seemed to have lost some of their crimson hue in this area.

"Is this place so vast just because it's a spatial point outside Saint Pill City? I've heard that Saint Pill City has eight such spatial points. The Pill Tower truly lives up to its reputation as a top-tier power on the continent."

Looking at this huge square with no end in sight, Xiao Ming couldn't help but feel a little emotional.

The space behind him was now violently distorting and fluctuating, with Spatial Ship constantly emerging from it, only to shrink rapidly. Meanwhile, figures within them were falling from the sky like beans...

Clearly, this is the landing exit point of a Spatial Wormhole.

Xiao Yi Xian and Qing Lin were also seeing this scene for the first time, and they looked around in surprise.

"Hehe, Xiao Ming, I didn't expect to see this scene as soon as I woke up. You've come all the way to the Central Plains Pill Tower, haven't you? Did I sleep for that long this time?"

Just as Xiao Ming was about to leave with Xiao Yi Xian, an old man's laughter suddenly rang out in his mind without warning.

"Old Yao, you're awake. How's your recovery going?"

Hearing that familiar laughter, a smile appeared on Xiao Ming's face, a silent response in his heart.

"The recovery is quite good. The power of that Ferocious Soul has restored me to the Eight Star Dou Zong. This is the limit of power I can possess without a physical body."

"Yes, Old Yao, rest assured. Once I arrive at the Pill Tower Headquarters, I will improve my Alchemy Technique as soon as possible. I only need two more materials for the Bone Regeneration Blood Fusion Pill, and I believe the matter of the body will be resolved soon."

During the long journey to Holy Pill City, Xiao Ming spent most of his time studying Alchemy Technique.

With Xiao Ming's current understanding of Alchemy Technique, he could actually start refining Grade Seven High-level Medicinal Pill. However, Xiao Ming felt that the success rate of refining them was too low, so he wanted to find some pills to practice with before refining the Bone Regeneration Blood Fusion Pill.

When Old Yao has a physical body, Xiao Ming won't need to worry too much about his actions in Central Plains.

"Hahaha! I believe you. I'll leave the matter of the body to you. I'm not an ungrateful person. Once the body is successfully refined, I'll be at your beck and call."

Nodding slightly, Xiao Ming didn't continue chatting with them. Instead, he beckoned Xiao Yi Xian and Qing Lin to head towards a certain place in Holy Pill City.

He planned to find Inn to stay in first, and then take the Alchemy Level test.
