Chapter 206: Spirit Sound Valley Master
Over a hundred people walked in from outside, all of whom had extraordinary auras and were from the Feng family’s direct lineage.
The leader was none other than Feng Lie, the Feng family’s ancestor, dressed in a hemp robe with white hair.
Feng Baozhao and other high-ranking members of the Feng family followed behind him.
Although Feng Mingyan had made a grave mistake the previous day, it was an internal matter for the Feng family. If they restricted him from attending today’s event, it would raise suspicions.
So, Feng Mingyan still attended the event at the Wind Bell Square.
Among the group, aside from the Feng family’s high-ranking members, there were around 40-50 people with extraordinary auras following them.
These people were of varying ages, and their expressions seemed somewhat arrogant.
Their faces were unfamiliar to most people in Yunmeng City.
It seemed that these were the alchemists invited by the Feng family’s young masters.
As the Feng family arrived, the entire Wind Bell Square fell silent.Everyone’s gaze then fell upon the group of alchemists.
Their expressions were filled with curiosity.
“I said that this time, the Feng family’s alchemist conference would definitely attract new talents from Qingzhou’s land.”
“Look, there’s a young man in blue beside Feng Mingyan. If I’m not mistaken, he should be Liu Ming, the chief alchemist of the Treasure Gathering Pavilion!”
“He’s said to be under 30 years old and has already reached the level of a third-grade alchemist. He even registered successfully at the Treasure Gathering Pavilion a year ago!”
“I wonder if he’s broken through to the fourth grade during this time. If so, he would be a rare talent in all of Qingzhou!”
“Hehe, with Liu Ming here, only a few from the Alchemist Association might be able to surpass him…”
“I wonder if we’ll be lucky enough to see the new talents of Qingzhou’s alchemist world today.”
“…”
The identities of these alchemists were naturally recognized by the crowd at the Wind Bell Square.
Alchemists were a prestigious and rare profession in the cultivation world.
Each alchemist who reached the second grade or had immense potential would become an object of admiration for many.
After being recognized, the female cultivators on the square couldn’t help but send secret glances at Liu Ming, their eyes filled with admiration.
Liu Ming was a legendary figure in Yunmeng City.
“And the one next to Miss Feng Qiuyue seems to be Master Longgu. He is said to be a senior third-grade alchemist, right?”
“I didn’t expect him to be invited this time as well. It seems that Master Longgu also registered at the Treasure Gathering Pavilion back then.”
“And there’s third-grade alchemist Master Ye Wuyou…”
“Master Zhao Linxian is also here…”
“…”
Each of the people following the Feng family was recognized one by one.
Among them, there were over ten third-grade alchemists.
As for today’s alchemist conference, the cultivators had initially thought it would be an ordinary event.
However, they didn’t expect that the alchemists brought by the Feng family would be of such high caliber.
They knew that other powers in Yunmeng City would also send some alchemists to join in the fun, as the Treasure Gathering Pavilion, led by the Feng family, was one of the four major powers in the city.
At least, without concrete evidence of the Spirit Sound Inn incident, even Spirit Sound Valley wouldn’t dare to openly confront the Feng family.
Other powers, although unable to register alchemists, still had many alchemists who would choose to join them.
For example, Su Jingzhen, although registered as an alchemist at the Treasure Gathering Pavilion, was actually a member of the Evil Moon Sect.
This didn’t conflict with anything.
Even many alchemists registered with the Alchemist Association, but didn’t directly join the association, could choose to join other powers without any restrictions.
Moreover, the crowd was mainly looking forward to the Alchemist Association’s arrival, knowing that this alchemist conference would be a fierce battle.
Third-grade alchemists in Qingzhou’s land were not many, and were scattered among the major powers and cities, so the gathering of these third-grade alchemists would indeed be a feast for the eyes.
Under Feng Lie’s leadership, the Feng family quickly took their positions.
The central area of the square had over 300 alchemy platforms, and the Feng family’s position was closest to these platforms.
The surrounding areas were left empty, reserved for the other major powers of Yunmeng City.
After the Feng family arrived, neither Feng Lie nor Feng Baozhao said much, as if waiting for the other powers to arrive.
The cultivators were carefree, and there was no specific time or fixed number of alchemists required for this conference.
After all, when the news of the alchemist conference was first announced, it was stated that any alchemist who had confidence in themselves could participate and showcase their skills.
The first and second rounds were free-for-all, and the alchemists prepared their own materials, so the Feng family wouldn’t lose anything.
After the Feng family took their seats, other powers and families began to arrive.
“The Flowing Wind Sword Sect has arrived, and they’ve even brought nearly ten alchemists! I didn’t expect Master Lin Ye to have joined the Flowing Wind Sword Sect, no wonder we haven’t heard much about him in recent years.”
Soon, a group of cultivators with swords on their backs, exuding a powerful aura, took their seats beside the Feng family.
Although cultivators all had storage spirit tools, the disciples of the Flowing Wind Sword Sect still habitually wore their swords on their backs.
This was their symbol.
However, this aspect of theirs was often imitated by many wandering cultivators, and the Flowing Wind Sword Sect’s disciples were the most frequently impersonated.
It was also often said that the Flowing Wind Sword Sect was so powerful that they could sit at home and wait for opportunities to come to them from the sky.
The Flowing Wind Sword Sect didn’t take long to arrive, and suddenly, the entire square was filled with a bright and lively atmosphere.
Thirty or forty beautiful women, each with their own unique charm, suddenly appeared on the Wind Bell Square.
Lingxiu Pavilion, one of the four major powers in Yunmeng City, had arrived!
Originally, the people from Lingxiu Pavilion should have been the absolute focus of attention.
But at this time, Spirit Sound Valley, which had entered the scene almost simultaneously with Lingxiu Pavilion, was causing a stir among the crowd!
Everyone’s gaze quickly gathered around them.
Because Spirit Sound Valley had only brought eleven people, and not a single one of them was an alchemist!
The leader, a middle-aged man with a refined and elegant aura, wore white clothes and carried a bamboo flute at his waist.
His breath didn’t have much concealment.
He was a Nascent Soul cultivator!
The ten people behind him were all powerful Golden Core cultivators.
“That’s… Spirit Sound Valley’s current valley master, Sikong Tingyun!”
“It’s said that his cultivation is already close to reaching the late Nascent Soul stage.”
“The ten people behind him seem to be Spirit Sound Valley’s ten Golden Core protectors!”
“They’ve come to participate in the alchemist conference, but didn’t bring a single alchemist. What is Spirit Sound Valley planning to do?”
“Ah!”
“Could it be that they’re here because of the Spirit Sound Inn explosion last night?
“This is interesting. Is Spirit Sound Valley going to cause trouble at the Feng family’s alchemist conference?”
“…”
