Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor novel Chapter 374

Chapter 374 - Pill Sage Trial

Wang Wei frowned after hearing his master's words, faking a look of confusion. Of course, he knew what the Pill Sage Trial was, after all, he did extensive research on the Origin Dao Pill Sect.

However, he did not know how it could help him acquire the Origin Pill Flame Sutra. This should one of the secrets that only the sect master or a few people could know.

After seeing his disciple's confused face, Ye Lao explained:

"May different sects and Emperor Lineages have different ways of choosing a Heaven Chosen to cultivated in each generation. When it comes to our Origin Pill Dao Sect, the Pill Sage Trial is one of them."

"Master, I do not think that becoming the sect's Heaven Chosen will have any effect on our situation."

"Normally, you would be correct. However, our sect's trial is different. Above the Heaven Chosen, in this trial, there is a level referred to as Ancestor's Blessing.

"As long as you can acquire this grade in the trial, according to our ancestor's rules, all the resources of the sect will available to you without hesitation."

"So simple?"

"Simple? Boy, you do not know anything. Since the sect's inception, the number of people who got that grade can be counted on one hand."

"What about Fu Caiyun? Did he get an Ancestor Blessing?"

"Even he failed," replied Ye Lao with a sigh. With Fu Caiyun's talent, many people thought that he would succeed but he did not. At that time, Ye Lao was both relieved and disappointed at the same time.

"What exactly is this Ancestral Blessing you talk about?" asked Wang Wei in confusion. He had never heard of this, so, he wanted to gather as much information as possible.

"The so-called Ancestral Blessing has to do with our founder, the Danyuan Emperor, and the current predicament of professionals in this world."

Wang Wei remained silent as he listened intently.

"Alchemist is in a very hard predicament in this world. When it comes to proving the Dao and becoming Emperor, Alchemists are at a disadvantage as the Heaven Will requires strength to acquire.

"Most Alchemists focus their lives on cultivating their Pill Refining Level and are usually very weak in terms of combat. And every Alchemist that becomes Emperor must be excellent in both Pill Refinement and have high combat value.

"The majority of cultivators have to spend their entire lives increasing their combat power, how could they have time to raise their Alchemy Level to a truly profound level that can bear the Heaven Will?"

Wang Wei was silent as he already realized the unfairness of the situation to Alchemists. When it comes to other professions like Weapon Refining, Talisman Making, and Array Master, they usually have some combat power in the later stage of cultivation–especially Talisman Makers and Array Masters.

Nevertheless, it does not change the fact that they are at a disadvantage when it comes to the Battle of Heaven Will. As a result of the current situation, all the Great Emperors who proved the Dao through Alchemy are usually extremely talented geniuses or extremely lucky individuals.

"While traveling to other World Communities, the Danyuan Emperor once discovered a Heaven Will World called Myriad Pill World. In this world, only Pill Refiners can become Great Emperors."

Wang Wei's eyes lit up after hearing this. In the Endless Void, anything is possible. The Laws of Heaven and Earth of each Heaven Will World is different, leading to different cultivation system, different Dao, philosophies, ideas, and civilization.

One day, he will experience all of them to broaden his vision.

"Master, what about other professions? Can they also become Great Emperors too?"

"All the other professions are used to develop Alchemy. In this world, most Alchemists will dabble in other professions to find inspiration on how to develop their Alchemy. And no, other professions cannot become Emperor."

"Then, how do they compete for the Heaven Will?"

"During the Heaven Will Battle, alchemists will simply compete on their skills. The person who has a better pill refinement method will become Emperor.

"However, despite how simple things seem, the competition is not."

Ye Lao momentarily paused with a look of yearning on his face.

"According to description, in this world, Alchemy is developed beyond your imagination. Countless techniques, ideas, and methods of Alchemy are invented every day.

"The Alchemists in this world is all about innovation, surpassing the predecessors. So, each generation, new ideas or ways of thinking in the Dao of Alchemy is created."

"This sounds like the Paradise and the Hell for Alchemists," replied Wang Wei.

In the Myriad Emperor Word, all Alchemists have some level of status–no matter how low they are. That is mainly because the ratio of Alchemists and cultivators is so low that they are unique. _{fɾēewebnσveℓ.com}
