Deep within Sixth Mountain, in a quaint courtyard, Celeste sat cross-legged in front of a cauldron, her gaze focused intently on the situation inside.
"This time, I must advance to become a seventh-grade alchemist!" Celeste's divine sense firmly locked onto the changes inside the cauldron as she contemplated silently.
Ever since she witnessed the phenomenon caused by the seventh-grade high-rank alchemical pill above Pearl Light Isle a few days ago, Celeste was acutely aware of the growing disparity between herself and Severin. It was not just in cultivation, but also in alchemy. She might not boast the same level of cultivation talent as Severin, but when it came to alchemy, Celeste was confident that she was not weaker to him.
Thus, after consolidating her recent breakthrough to the paragon realm, Celeste immediately began to attempt to advance to become a seventh-grade alchemist.
Just as Celeste was concentrating intently on the cauldron in front of her, a brilliant glow suddenly ascended into the sky, and vast swathes of purple mist lingered like a canopy over the Alchemy Tower for a long time.
Soon after, twelve thunderous tolls reverberated through the air, like muffled thunder exploding in the ears with overwhelming momentum. The deafening tolls of the bell, originating from the Alchemy Tower's plaza, unleashed waves of sound that reverberated throughout the entire Grandiuno Sect.
Celeste's eyes instantly widened with shock.
"The twelve tolls of the Alchemy Tower... could it be that someone has entered the ninth floor?"
With astonishment written all over her face, Celeste paid no heed to the cauldron still emitting black smoke. She sprang up from the ground with a whoosh.
Among those in the sect who could compare with her in alchemy talent, there was only Severin! With the twelve tolls of the Alchemy Tower, it meant someone had entered the ninth floor, and she was sure it was Severin. How could this not leave Celeste dumbfounded?
A few seconds later, Celeste snapped out of her shock, and rose into the air with an incredulous expression on her face. She quickly arrived at the Alchemy Tower plaza. As soon as Celeste arrived at the Alchemy Tower plaza, she saw from afar the change on the black stone monument situated beside the tower—Severin's name had been altered.
