Chapter 266: Inferior Character

ques."Just which aspect of the magical arts would be enhanced"The Lian Yao Yin used to refine the demonic talents of the demon clan allowed Jiang Yun's currently known techniques to be quite numerous....The summit of Lu Feng boasts a platform that is quite expansive.

Although tens of thousands of people are now standing densely packed on it, it doesn't seem crowded.

And on some rocks around the platform, there were clusters of three or five cultivators sitting cross-legged. Judging from their attire and appearance, they were definitely not members of the Yaoshengzong.

"The grand alchemy competition of our Yaoshensong sect is a momentous occasion and highly entertaining, so every time, allied sects send representatives to observe."

Xiao Zheng had obviously recovered from the emotional boost that he received from his recent victory, now pointing at those cultivators as he explained things to Jiang Yun.

Among the sounds of speech, the three also arrived at the summit.

Because there were so many people around, their appearance did not attract anyone's attention.

However, just as the three of them had just landed, a young man appeared in the sky above.

Clad in white, he possessed a handsome face and an emotionless expression. However, the glint of intelligence that occasionally flashed in his eyes gave him an air of aloofness.

And with the arrival of this person, the platform was immediately filled with waves of exclamations.

"It's Master Guan! He actually came out of seclusion!"

"Look, at Senior Brother Guan's waist there is a dan pei hanging, on the top there seem to be five beads"

"Not bad, it's five stars, five-jewel pill pendant. Senior Brother Guan is already a fifth rank alchemist!"

"After winning first place in the last grand competition, Senior Brother Guan went into seclusion and hasn't emerged. It is said that he wants to break through to become a fifth-rank alchemist. Unexpectedly, in just five years, he has already succeeded!"

"Shixiong Guan is so young, yet he is already a fifth-rank alchemist. This achievement is among the best in the history of our Yaosh Shenzong. He is truly a genius of medicine and will surely bring glory to our sect in the future."

"By the way, during the last grand competition, wasn't Xiao Zheng, who was Senior Guan's last opponent, still at the third rank"

"What's he capable of! Xiao Zheng is nowhere near Li Changlin, his senior brother, let alone comparable to Guan, his senior brother!"

The crowd's murmurous discussions, almost every word reaching the ears of Jiang Yun and his companions.

Xie Xiaoyong lightly bit her teeth, when she looked at Guan Yiming, admiration would flash in her eyes, but when she saw Xiao Zheng, a touch of melancholy would appear on her face.

As a pharmacist, she naturally admired the esteemed Guan Yiming. However, Xiao Zheng was her senior brother, and she didn't want him to be ridiculed.

As for Xiao Zheng at this moment, he was completely oblivious to Xie Xiaoyong's gaze.

His eyes were fixed intently on the five-bead jade pendant hanging from Guan Yiming's waist.

As if by coincidence, Guan Yiming turned mid-air and his eyes met Xiao Zheng's. A hint of surprise flickered across the handsome face.

"Xiao Zheng, five years have passed, you're still a third-rank official Why bother participating in the grand competition and embarrassing yourself!"

This sentence clearly entered everyone's ears.

And Xiao Zheng, who had already returned to normal, hearing this, not only experienced a dramatic upsurge in emotion again, but his body trembled uncontrollably as well.

Even, both hands unconsciously clenched tightly.

From the previous discussion, Jiang Yun had already heard the animosity between Xiao Zheng and Guan Yiming.

Actually, it's not really about any grudges.

But it was just five years ago that Guan Yiming and Xiao Zheng, both third-rank alchemists, participated in the grand alchemy competition.

Both of them were neck and neck, both in terms of grades and speed, but nobody expected...

When it came to the final round of alchemy, Guan Yiming, despite his third-rank status, managed to refine a fourth-rank pill.

Not only did it allow him to defeat Xiao Zheng and win first place in the competition, but it also allowed him to become a Level Four Alchemist in one fell swoop.

Although he lost, Xiao Zheng sincerely admired Guan Yiming's skills. So after the competition ended, he humbly went to ask for advice on his experience in refining fourth-grade pills.

However, Guan Yiming not only did not give Xiao Zheng any guidance, but instead sarcastically ridiculed him without mercy, leaving Xiao Zheng humiliated.

Now, five years have passed. Xiao Zheng is still a third-rank alchemist, while Guan Yiming has already reached the fifth rank. Adding to that, his just-stated sentence filled with disdain...

It is self-evident how much of a blow this was to Xiao Zheng.

Seeing Xiao Zheng's face growing paler and paler, Jiang Yun suddenly looked up at Guan Yiming and said, "Medicine might be extraordinary, but character..."

"What a disgrace!"

Shaking her head, Jiang Yun, with a disappointed expression on her face, ignored Guan Yiming.

Instead, he reached out and gave Xiao Zheng a heavy pat on the shoulder, with a slight smile: "Brother Xiao, your rank isn't enough, there's plenty of time to catch up. But if your heart is in disarray, then everything is just wishful thinking!"

Jiang Yun's words were like a basin of cold water poured onto Xiao Zheng's heart, causing his body to tremble suddenly and his face to slowly return to calm. He looked at Jiang Yun gratefully and said, "Thank you!"

The way of medicine lies in cultivating the heart.

Indecisive, everything is just idle talk!

If Xiao Zheng goes into the next competition with a disordered heart, he probably won't even pass the first round.

As for Guan Yiming, upon hearing Jiang Yun's last four words, his face suddenly turned cold as he said, "What do you mean!"

Just then, the sky above everyone's heads suddenly rippled with circles, instantly drawing everyone's attention and causing them to temporarily forget about Jiang Yun and Guan Yiming.

And within this ripple, gradually five cauldrons of distinct forms emerged.

Upon each tripod, a person sits cross-legged.

Among these five people, Ginger Cloud recognizes two: Mei Bu Gu and Yang Shizhong!

Seeing these five tripod cauldrons and five individuals, a look of fanaticism flashed across each disciple's face, even Guan Yiming.

Because these five people are all celestial pharmacists!

Within the Yaoshenzong, only those who reach the seventh rank are qualified to be called Heavenly Pharmacists!

Don't look at the fact that there are only five people, but these five Heavenly Pharmacists are not only the treasures of the Yaosheng Sect, but also the treasures of the entire Shanhai Realm.

Because they represent, almost, the pinnacle of medicine.

Jiang Yun finally understood why Xiao Zheng's attitude towards his master was almost unconditional worship, just like Bai Ze facing a Dao demon.

Turns out, Mei Bu Gu is actually a pharmacist above the seventh rank!

After the appearance of these five Divine Pharmacists, thirty-six more figures appeared below them, still in the sky.

From the jade pendants they wore, it was easy to see that they were all Earth Pharmacists and the judges for this grand competition.

Of course, the number of pharmacists in the Yaoshén Sect is certainly more than just these.

For example, Guan Yiming who just appeared, is also a pharmacist, but they are participating in this big competition.

As the Heavenly Pharmacist and Earthly Pharmacist appeared one after another, many disciples knew in their hearts that the Grand Alchemy Competition was about to begin!

As expected, above the sky, another white-haired old man with a dan furnace mark between his brows appeared.

He is Elder Han, the one in charge of pharmacology! He has been the master of ceremonies for every grand competition.

Listening to Xiao Zheng's introduction, Jiang Yun looked at this Elder Han, knowing that the other party not only had profound attainments in medicine but also possessed extremely powerful cultivation.

Above the platform, it had long since fallen silent. Everyone looked up at Elder Han, and Elder Han nodded slightly. "I'll briefly explain the rules of the grand competition," he said.

"All the disciples participating in the grand competition will receive a teleportation stone. After crushing it, it will send you to the inheritance land, where the competition will be held!"

"What!"

The moment Elder Han stepped up, his first words filled the disciples with a surge of energy and joy lit up their faces.

This year's Pill Competition, in the past always held on this platform, unexpectedly we're entering a place of legacy this time.

Wouldn't that mean there's a chance to obtain the legacy of the Pharma God
