Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor novel Chapter 368

Chapter 368 - Saint Alchemist (II)

Two old men sat on a large flying carpet flying in one direction; they both had long white hair and beard, with slightly tan skin. One of them was wearing a red robe while the other was black.

"Do you think that little boy could pass the test?" asked the red robe elder.

"I do not know but it will certainly be interesting if he did."

"True. In the past two generations, Fu Caiyun was the only person in the Origin Dao Pill Sect that became a Saint Alchemist in the Divine Body Realm. If Lou Cheng managed to succeed, with the latter's small mind, his chances of surviving are really small."

"Not necessarily." replied the red robe elder. "The Supreme Elders have tolerated Fu Caiyun's destructive ways because of his talent. If this Lou Cheng shows as much talent as him, they could use him to balance him."

"You are too optimistic about the situation. There is currently only three Tier 6 Quasi-Emperor Alchemist in the sect. One of them decided to remain neutral, the other one is fully devoted to the growth of the Origin Pill Dao Sect, and Fu Caiyun is the youngest one.

"From recent rumors, Fu Caiyun's success rate seems to have recently surpassed the other two. This is enough to drastically increase his influence."

The two elders became quiet for a moment before deciding to talk about something else. These two were high members of the Alchemy Association and were heading to the headquarters to serve as judges.

Based on the rules, when someone wants to become a Saint Alchemist, the judges of the test have to be of the same level.

Because these two old men lived a little far away, they were the last to arrive. The Alchemy Association Main Brach was located at the foot of the Origin Pill Dao Sect.

So, as soon as they arrived, they rushed to the location. To their surprise, they discovered two unexpected people: Ye Lao and Fu Caiyun, both with serious looks on their faces.

After thinking about it for a while, it made sense that they were here. Ye Lao was a Supreme Grade Alchemist and should not care about a little Saint Alchemist.

However, it was his disciple involved so he came. As for Fu Caiyin's presence…

The two elders looked at one another for a moment and a playful smile could be seen on their faces. They quickly approached the two to salute. Although these two were the same generation and have the same cultivation level, it did not change the fact that they were not in the same league when it came to Alchemy.

So, they had to respect their betters.

Fu Caiyun just glanced at these two before ignoring them. Both of them were not surprised by this. By now, the latter's reputation as being extremely arrogant was already known to the world.

Once the red robe old man turned his head away, a small smile could be seen on the corner of his mouth. He could not help but think about what happened a few hundred years ago when it was revealed that Fu Caiyun's wife had placed a green hat on his head.

This was a major scandal. Although the Origin Pill Dao Sect did their best to reduce the impact of the scandal, however, things instead escalated for a while.

It was revealed that Fu Caiyun's wife was very resentful of his treatment of her and decided to make him pay. So, she slept with many people as a form of revenge–not just the Academy's Teacher.

This was a shock in the Alchemy World. Luckily, Fu Caiyun was ruthless in the way he handled the situation. All the people who had weak backgrounds were quickly killed.

As for the powerful one, he used his massive wealth and resources to essentially end the career of these people. From now on, these people would never exit their sect.

To the outside world, they are essentially dead. Many of them quickly sealed themselves to become their faction's foundation and escape the situation.

The two elders quickly saluted Ye Lao before taking their position and waiting for the assessment. Although the sect master was more approachable, these two knew that it was best not to be too close to him given his current predicament.

Although these people did not like Fu Caiyun, they could not ignore his influence.

A few minutes passed before it was time for the test. There was 7 Saint Alchemist along with Ye Lao and Fu Caiyun. Soon, Wang Wei walked into the room. He first bowed to his master before bowing to the other judges.

Then, he glanced at a Fu Caiyin before beginning. He took out a talisman and activated it. An invisible barrier was placed to surround him. This barrier will allow the judges to use their Divine Sense to check his work but if they try to interfere in any way possible, the talisman will activate to protect Wang Wei.

Fu Caiyun squinted his eyes after seeing this. He understood that Wang Wei's action was directed at; he was basically insinuating that he did not trust him a judge.

Despite his arrogance, he was also a shred person so he would never try t cheat in such a test where many people were paying attention to. And Lou Cheng should know this fact yet he still did this.

Fu Caiyun snorted inside while also secretly sneering; he did not think that this Lou Cheng could refine a Saint Pill. Many years ago he had already tested the latter's talent.
