Crescent Valley, light snow is flying.

In the Pill Hall, the scent of tea wafts through the air. Luo Chen is engrossed in a book.

The sound of footsteps followed by a weary sigh came to his ears.

Without lifting his head, he said, “Failed again?”

“Hmm.”

The sullen voice emanated from Tang Quan, who looked completely listless at the moment.

The reason for his lack of energy was firstly due to the failure of refining the Allure Pill and secondly due to his low realm, which had exhausted a lot of his energy during the alchemy process.

“Failure is normal. The birth of any lower-grade pill is accompanied by hundreds or thousands of failures.”

Hearing this calm and unfluctuating tone, Tang Quan sighed.

He had thought that being valued by Luo Chen and being allowed to take Charge of the refinement of Allure Pill demonstrated some of his talent.

But over the past month, he had failed every day, with every batch. The closest he came to success was only a half-finished product.

Looking at Luo Chen’s casual demeanor, Tang Quan couldn’t help but think, could the gap between people be so large?

Luo Chen was once a rogue cultivator, without the guidance of a famous master or the support of a gang.

All the alchemy materials had to be gathered by himself.

But even so, he had refined the Allure Pill, a pill of such high grade.

Compared to him, Tang Quan felt like he was a waste.

He even started to doubt whether he really had any talent for alchemy. “Perhaps the Hall Master is truly a rare alchemy genius, otherwise he wouldn’t have been able to refine the medium-grade Jade Marrow Pill in such a short time.”

Just as he was about to leave, his gaze fell on the book Luo Chen was reading the book cover read. 61

“Record of the Great River’s Sky Pride.”

?

Tang Quan suddenly perked up, “Hall Master, are you very interested in the

Dao Debate Platform’s battles?”

Luo Chen replied with a sound of approval, “Somewhat interested.” This book was something he had bought from a vendor in White Stone Plaza, a rogue cultivator claiming to be “The Great River’s Resident Scholar.” The book contained the records of many cultivator’s achievements in The Great River District’s Sky Pride List, as well as their specialized methods.

“Then you won’t see the real things from this book compiled from second-hand information.”

This time, Luo Chen looked up.

Tang Quan grinned, “For these matters, you will have to ask my uncle, Zeng Wen.” ’ &

Luo Chen’s eyes lit up!

Yes, these casual books were all exaggerated. According to their descriptions, a middle stage Qi Refinement cultivator was invincible, while a late stage Qi Refinement cultivator could obliterate heaven and earth.

But Zeng Wen, the friend, was a regular on the Dao Debate Platform!

Why not ask him?

Five days later!

At the base of Luo Feng Mountain, Luo Chen and Zeng Wen arrived together. Oh no, there was also a woman.

She leaned against Zeng Wen like a small bird, her peach blossom eyes were quite charming when she smiled.

This was Zeng Wen’s new girlfriend, reportedly from a declining Immortal Cultivation Clan, who had a clear background.

Zeng Wen was now rarely seen in the Heavenly Fragrance Pavilion because of the scarcity of the Allure Pill and the matters of the Battle Hall.

Perhaps he wanted to turn over a new leaf, so he planned to settle down.

His ninth level Qi Refinement was more than enough to make many female cultivators look at him differently.

That clan also welcomed Zeng Wen.

So both sides were very close, and there was a strong tendency towards becoming Dao Companion Cultivators.

Seeing Luo Chen looking up at the information on the jade tablet, Zeng Wen laughed.

“Don’t worry, I’ve seen this person on stage several times. Although he’s at the eighth level of Qi Refining Stage, he lacks magic tools. The only thing that he can pull out is an Ascendant Grade Flying Sword.”

“With your strength, as long as you handle it properly, there is no problem in defeating him!”

Luo Chen retracted his gaze, his look full of eagerness to try.

After registering two days ago, it was his tum to participate in the competition today.

Before this, Zeng Wen and even Duan Feng had carefully selected opponents for him and strategized how to defeat them.

Considering Luo Chen had put up a lower grade magic tool as a bet and his realm was only at the seventh level of Qi Refinement,

The opponent named Huang Bin readily accepted the challenge.

As arranged by the Yu Ding Sword Pavilion cultivators, the match would be the first one in the afternoon.

“Let’s go in!”

Luo Chen waved his big hand and was ready to enter the passageway.

But Zeng Wen told him to wait a moment.

Then he started to move around.

He first went to Chen Yue’s snack stall to buy a bag of popcorn, a bag of Immortal Beans, a bottle of Pineapple Wine, and then went to Honey Snow Ice City to buy a cup of milk tea.

After handing the snacks and milk tea to the female cultivator with peach blossom eyes, Zeng Wen smiled at Luo Chen and plunged into a nearby betting booth. 5

“Boss, bet on Luo…”

He paused, turning to look back at Luo Chen.

Luo Chen was helpless. So he’s abandoned chasing butterflies, and now chases bets, huh!

“Murong Yuan.”

Zeng Wen grinned, “Ten Spirit Stones, I bet on Murong Yuan winning. Oh right, what are the odds for him against Huang Bin?”

The cultivator at the betting booth sneered, “You don’t even know this, and you dare to bet?”

“Supporting a brother, just for fun!”

The cultivator looked at Luo Chen behind him, then sneered, “Huang Bin is an old hand on the Dao Debate Platform. He has participated in many battles Although he has lost more than he has won, he has rich experience This newcomer, Murong Yuan, can’t compare to him in either realm or fame.” “So the odds are high, currently as high as five to one.”

“Are you sure you want to bet on him?”

Of course, Zeng Wen confidently placed his bet.

Then, under Luo Chen’s annoyed gaze, they bought tickets and entered the passageway together.

He and his companion bought tickets, while Luo Chen didn’t need to.

Once inside, Luo Chen curiously asked, “Why did you choose ‘Murong Yuan’ as an alias?”
