The sun is scorching in the sky, and the endless desert is like a furnace, releasing its fiery enthusiasm. In the blue sky, a figure was seen moving forward quickly.
"Brother Jia Lie, where are we going?" Qing Lin, who was hugged by Jia Lie Jun, asked crisply.
"I plan to go to a nearby city to take the alchemist assessment." Jia Lie Jun immediately replied. Now, Jia Lie Jun can already refine third-grade elixirs on his own, and the success rate is extremely high, but he has never participated in the Alchemist Guild's assessment.
This time Jia Lie Jun plans to pass the assessment of the top three alchemists in one go. After all, if you want to join Dan Pagoda, you must first become an alchemist, and becoming an alchemist has many benefits. Didn't you see, Gu He can recruit Dou Emperor by virtue of his identity as Sixth-grade Alchemist.
"Well, it's him." Jia Lie Jun looked down inadvertently, and a figure came into view. I saw this person wearing a green shirt, carrying a giant ruler on his back, walking hard in the desert, it was Xiao Yan.
"Remnant Map of the Pure Lotus Demonic Flame will be kept with you temporarily." Jia Lie Jun's eyes were cold, filled with killing intent. He had previously thought about snatching Remnant Map of the Pure Lotus Demonic Flame from Hai Bo Dong, but he gave up because he was not strong enough. After all, even if most of Hai Bo Dong's strength was sealed, Jia Lie Jun could only use the strength of Dou Ling, which was not something Jia Lie Jun could deal with. And in this desert, Seven-Colored Sky Swallowing Python cannot be exposed easily, otherwise he is likely to be chased by the Snake People Tribe.
And it is impossible to snatch Remnant Map of the Pure Lotus Demonic Flame from Xiao Yan at this time. After all, with Yao Lao around, Jia Lie Jun is no match for him at all.
Remnant Map of the Pure Lotus Demonic Flame fell into the hands of Xiao Yan. Jia Lie Jun was not too worried because he had already made up his mind to get rid of him after joining Dan Pagoda, so that Demonic Flame Remnant Map would eventually fall into his hands.
Moreover, Jia Lie Jun also has part of Demonic Flame Remnant Map, so it is impossible for Xiao Yan to obtain the complete residual image. In this way, Jia Lie Jun saves a lot of effort, just like the mantis stalking the cicada and the oriole behind it.
"Brother Jia Lie, look, there is a city in front of you." Qing Lin pointed his jade-white finger forward and shouted happily. Seeing the city ahead, Jia Lie Jun also had a smile on his face.
"When you enter the city later, follow me and don't run around, otherwise it will be bad if you encounter bad guys and get kidnapped." Jia Lie Jun watched Qing Lin looking around, looking eager to try, and whispered.
"I know, brother Jia Lie, don't always treat me like a child, and I'm not afraid of those bad people. I'm One-Seal Rune Master." Qing Lin shook his fist and pouted.
"Yang Yan City." Looking at the three big characters on the city wall, Jia Lie Jun said silently in his heart. Yang Yan City is located at the junction of Tagor Desert and plains. Because it is close to the desert and has high temperatures all year round, Yan Yang City got its name.
Although Yang Yan City is located on the edge of the desert, due to its proximity to the desert, the Fire Attribute Dou Qi in the air is very rich, which is very suitable for the growth of fire-attribute elixirs, so many businessmen come here to purchase fire-attribute medicinal materials. This also makes Yang Yan City very prosperous, compared with which Wutan City is inferior.
Inside Yang Yan City, people are coming and going on the wide streets, and there are many shops on the roadside, some selling Magic Core and some selling medicinal materials. The vendors carried their burdens and moved flexibly through the crowd. There were shirtless mercenaries gathered in twos and threes on both sides of the street, talking and laughing loudly, and occasionally bursting into exclamations of exclamation.
Qing Lin looked around at the unfamiliar environment, his eyes full of curiosity and desire to explore. He shuttled around among the crowded people, having already forgotten Jia Lie Jun's instructions.
"Oh, forget it, let her have fun." Looking at Qing Lin's cheerful back, Jia Lie Jun sighed helplessly. In fact, Jia Lie Jun also likes this street full of fireworks. It is really boring to practice all the time. After wandering around until evening, the two of them found an inn to stay.
In the early morning, the warm sunshine shines on the streets paved with bluestones. Jia Lie Jun and Qing Lin left the inn early. Before going out, they asked the boss about the location of the Alchemist Guild.
Follow the route pointed by the innkeeper. Jia Lie Jun walked leisurely through several long streets. After a long while, he slowly stopped and a magnificent building came into view.
The shape of this building is quite peculiar. Looking at it, the whole building looks like a medicine cauldron, with two ear-like carved beams around it pointing straight to the sky, with ancient patterns carved on them.
Looking at the five golden characters on the plaque, Jia Lie Jun took a deep breath and stepped in. As soon as you enter the door, you are greeted by a hall with numerous counters filled with medicinal materials. The strong aroma of medicinal herbs permeates the entire hall.
The young man quickly walked up to Jia Lie Jun and asked, "I wonder if this little brother wants to buy medicinal materials?"
"I'm here to conduct the alchemist examination." Jia Lie Jun said softly.
Hearing this, the boy immediately said with a flattering look on his face, "Little brother, those who are participating in the alchemist examination, please go this way." The boy trotted in front to lead the way.
Seeing the boy's flattering look, Jia Lie Jun felt a little funny and sighed in his heart, "This alchemist is really respected." Then he told Qing Lin not to run around and wait for him here, and then followed him.
Walking to a counter, the waiter and the waitress were chatting quietly. After a while, he nodded and bowed towards Jia Lie Jun and said, "She is responsible for the registration of the alchemist examination. Brother, just follow the procedures." Then he withdrew.
Jia Lie Jun took out the letter of introduction that Xuan Hao had given him early and handed it to the waitress. After a while, he led Jia Lie Jun to the second floor, pointed to the hall in the center and said softly, "That is the place where the alchemist examination is held."
Jia Lie Jun nodded, walked to the hall, and gently opened the door. Suddenly, dozens of eyes shot towards Jia Lie Jun, their eyes full of consideration. Jia Lie Jun didn't care, walked in expressionlessly, found a seat and sat down.
After waiting for a while, Jia Lie Jun was a little bored and looked around at the environment in the room. There are ten stone platforms placed in the center of the hall, and some medicinal herbs are placed on the stone platforms. Several young people were sitting upright, looking intently, with tense faces that looked very nervous.
In the center of the hall, an old man sat on his seat, twirling his beard. The old man was dressed in purple robes and wore a medicine cauldron-shaped badge on his chest. The badge was engraved with four silver ripples. He had a faint smile at the corner of his mouth, giving people a very amiable feeling.
"This little guy is quite interesting." The old man suddenly became interested when he saw Jia Lie Jun looking at him curiously without any nervousness. Those who come to take the alchemist examination are all walking on thin ice with trepidation. Except for those who are very confident in their own strength.
"Little guy, are you here to take the alchemist exam too?" the old man asked.
"Of course, otherwise why would I come to the Alchemist Guild." Jia Lie Jun rolled his eyes. He was still a little excited about the alchemist examination, as if he was taking the exam in his previous life.
