At the center of the Central Plains stood the Pill Tower, the "one tower" among the one tower, one hall, two sects, three valleys, and Four Directions Pavilion.
The city where the Pill Tower was located was called Pill City. With the aid of Spatial Displacement, Xiao Wujiu arrived at this place, hailed as the holy land in the hearts of all alchemists, with only a little effort.
"The holy land of alchemists? Then have I come here on a pilgrimage... or to become a 'saint' here?"
Looking down at Pill City, this question could not help arising in his heart. After all, he was now fully capable of refining Tier 9 Profound Pills, limited only by the materials. As for Grade Nine Treasure Pills, refining them was effortless for him.
Moreover, the true body of the Pill Tower Ancestor was also a Tier 9 Profound Pill. If they really compared notes, it was unclear who ought to regard whom as a saint.
However, he had not come here to settle who was superior. He only wanted to obtain the Three Thousand Burning Flame, so there was no need to make things so awkward.
After arriving at Pill City, he slightly released his Saint aura toward the Pill Tower and quietly waited for the Three Great Heads of the Pill Tower to appear.
This aura fluctuation... it belongs to a Dou Sheng!
Xuan Kongzi had originally been cultivating in seclusion, but although this fluctuation was not violent, the Saintly might contained within it made him feel as if he were facing a formidable enemy. Fortunately, the aura carried no hostility, allowing him to relax slightly.
With a flash, he left his place of seclusion and prepared to welcome this Saint, all the while wondering which Dou Sheng had arrived.
