Chapter 893: Foolishness
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Ye Chen knew very well that given Little Gold’s current state, it required this pill more than anyone else.
In a daze, Little Gold opened its mouth and swallowed the pill.
In an instant, a scarlet light enveloped Little Gold, and its pained expression eased up. Little Gold was obviously feeling much better.
At this moment, the surroundings were in an uproar, and no one could remain calm.
That was the freaking Crimson Body Overlord Pill!
Only a top-notch alchemist could refine it after forty-nine days, and it required many rare herbs!
Ordinary cultivators were not qualified to see it, let alone eat it. There were probably no more than five in the entire Kunlun Mountains!
However, Ye Chen did not eat such a rare treasure himself but fed it to a cat!
F*ck!
Was this guy r.e.t.a.r.ded?
What a waste!
Even Alchemy Master LingYi’s mouth twitched, feeling somewhat helpless.
He even began to suspect whether this kid was really related to Lin Qingxuan.
This was too stupid.
Consuming this Crimson Overlord Body Pill would at least help him face the trial of the Alchemy G.o.d statue and increase his chances of winning.
However, this kid did not seem to value it.
Luo Wuya shook his head and sighed to his daughter, Luo Yao, “This kid is good in every way except for being too arrogant. He didn’t take this kind of opportunity himself, but gave it to a f*cking beast! What a lunatic!”
Although Luo Yao did not understand, she still stood on Ye Chen’s side and said, “Dad, he should have his reasons.”
“Nonsense! This kid thinks that he’s invincible after reaching the fourth level of the tower. He doesn’t know that Cui Ruicheng can pa.s.s six levels of the tower in his current state!”
Alchemy Master Xingtian, Cui Ruicheng, and the others also sneered. The outcome was actually already very clear.
“Let’s go!” Alchemy Master Xingtian walked in a certain direction. As he walked, he said, “Ling Yi, let’s remove the seal on it.”
“Some people are courting death. You can’t save them even if you want to.”
Alchemy Master Ling Yi did not say anything. He silently walked to a corner of the Core Tower.
The two alchemy masters formed hand seals at the same time and then clasped their palms together.
In an instant, the world shook.
The originally empty ground suddenly caved in, and an altar gradually rose up.
There was a statue and a stone tablet on the altar.
The statue was of an old man with the aura of a master, whose arm was raised up, holding a miniature ancient tower.
The ten-story ancient tower was exactly the same as the Core Tower!
Even the statue itself gave off supreme pressure.
Upon seeing this statue, Alchemy Master Ling Yi and Alchemy Master Xingtian knelt down, followed by everyone else.
This was because this statue represented the Alchemy G.o.d!
If one did not kneel down, it would be disrespectful.
However, one person did not kneel.
It was Ye Chen!
It was not that Ye Chen did not want to kneel, but he heard a voice coming from the Samsara Graveyard.
“You don’t need to kneel to this person! He should kneel to you!”
Ye Chen almost spat out a mouthful of blood, but he still did as he was told.
The Tomb Master of Samsara Graveyard had to uphold the dignity of the Samsara Graveyard.
Ye Chen’s situation was too eye-catching at the moment. Immediately, countless gazes were fixed on Ye Chen.
Surprise, fear, and rage.
“Ye Chen, how dare you not kneel in front of the Alchemy G.o.d!?” Alchemy Master Xingtian said, “Do you really think you’re a big shot?”
Alchemy Master Ling Yi glanced at Ye Chen, but did not say anything.
He only felt a little regretful.
He did not like this person’s personality. He was too arrogant and did not seem to respect anyone.
This kind of person was destined not to go too far.
If he did not kneel to the Alchemy G.o.d now, he would probably not be able to obtain the Alchemy G.o.d’s recognition.
He was undoubtedly courting death.
Five seconds later, everyone stood up.
“Both of you stand in front of the statue. Close your eyes and release your auras of alchemy,” Alchemy Master Xing Tian said to Ye Chen and Cui Ruicheng.
Ye Chen and Cui Ruicheng took a few steps forward and stood in front of the statue of the Alchemy G.o.d.
A halo instantly surged above the altar and enveloped both of them.
While everyone was staring coldly at Ye Chen, a distant voice was heard from the statue. “Why didn’t you kneel just now?!”
As soon as that voice finished speaking, an endless pressure enveloped him.
Everyone’s expression panicked and changed drastically, and they quickly knelt down again.
He never thought that the Alchemy G.o.d statue’s spirit would actually speak.
However, despite the endless pressure, Ye Chen remained unaffected thanks to Little Gold. Spiritual pressure was useless in its presence.
Ye Chen raised his head. His eyes were firm as he said word by word, “Why should I kneel to you? I, Ye Chen, only kneel to my parents and teachers. Heaven and earth cannot make me bend my knees. You and I don’t know each other, so of course I won’t kneel!”
His att.i.tude was extremely firm.
“Hmph!” The statue snorted coldly and said, “Close your eyes and release your alchemy aura!”
There was no warmth or fluctuation in his words, but everyone felt a trace of anger!
Cui Ruicheng closed his eyes and did as he was told.
The stone tablet next to the statue actually emitted dazzling light!
At the same time, a set of numbers appeared on the stone tablet, which kept increasing.
It only stopped when it stabilized at 617.
When Alchemy Master Ling Yi saw this set of numbers, his expression turned extremely ugly!
The numerical value represented one’s talent in the Dao of Alchemy.
A hundred years ago, the last time the number was displayed, it was only 524!
However, Cui Ruicheng was almost a too points higher!
This was enough to prove that his talent was heaven-defying!
Soon, Cui Ruicheng opened his eyes. When he saw the number on the stone tablet, a confident smile appeared on his face.
He even pretended to salute the Alchemy G.o.d statue and said, “Thankyou, Alchemy G.o.d!”
The Alchemy G.o.d statue ignored Cui Ruicheng and looked at Ye Chen.
“It’s your turn,” it said impatiently.
Ye Chen did not waste any time. He closed his eyes and released his alchemy aura.
However, there was no light, nor any numbers on the stone tablet!
Everything became too quiet.
A few seconds later, the result was still the same!
There was nothing!
It was as if he was not recognized by the Alchemy G.o.d!
“Ye Chen, you don’t even have a number!” Cui Ruicheng laughed when he saw this scene. “Ridiculous!”
“A piece of trash with mortal roots, it seems that your Dao of Alchemy is trash too! Haha!”
When Alchemy Master Xingtian saw this scene, he was in a good mood. He turned his head and said to Alchemy Master Ling Yi, “It looks like the result is already very obvious. He will suffer the Alchemy G.o.d’s fury. Do you still want to save this kid? Ridiculous!”
Alchemy Master Ling Yi did not say anything. If Ye Chen was really erased by the Alchemy G.o.d’s statue…
Then he could not say anything about it!
This was Ye Chen’s destiny.
Countless pairs of eyes stared at Ye Chen, mocking him.
It was as if everything was already set in stone.
At this moment, Ye Chen felt that he had entered a special s.p.a.ce.
“Formation? I actually unknowingly entered a formation?”
The surroundings were filled with ancient characters, which seemed to detail supreme pill formulas.
