Eternal Cultivation of Alchemy

Chapter 649 The Elites

Xu Meirong twisted the pink side of her robe in frustration, leaving the green side be. Her small height would usually be a problem in the crowd, but she had been allowed to stand at the front with the two dozen youths, so she could see the house in front of her without a problem.

Only, she couldn't help but frown when she saw the stone door still unbudging.

House of the Undying was a well-known location in the sect records of the Falling Lotus sect. So, when she heard that its runes were giving up, she couldn't help but come here to reap some benefit.

Now that she was here, she saw that despite everyone attacking the barrier one after another, no one could break through the barrier.

Even the True Kings couldn't break through the barrier, so she, a True Lord 8th realm individual had no chance at all.

She only wished that she could leave and go back to the Life mountain where she could search for alchemy ingredients. She was sure with her knowledge of the plants and beasts, she could make a lot more profit there than what she could make here.

"If no one is able to break through the door then I shall leave," a ghostly sharp-eyed youth of a lanky physique spoke with a deathly voice and started turning around.

"Brother Guo Chiang, you don't have to leave so fast, right? Surely the Broken Ravine sect couldn't have a better place to be than this," Another youth spoke from the side.

"I will be honest, Zhou Ren. I don't like you, so stop calling me brother. As for the rest of you, good luck," the young man said. Then, he turned around and left, his blue and green robes fluttering in the wind.

"Tsk!" the white-robed young man whose sleeves and helms looked like they were burnt with fire said silently.

"He's not really patient, is he?" Song Shing spoke, his blood-stained robes staying eerily still in the midst of the wind.

A girl slammed the butt of her spear on the ground to gather the attention of the group. "I for one, agree with him," she spoke. "There is no way we are opening this door at all. Not in the next 8 days at least," she said.

"Liang Qiu, please stay. You are one of the strongest here, so we would really appreciate your help," Fu Tao spoke from the side.

Fu Tao was in fact the strongest of the people here, but that was only in terms of cultivation base. While cultivation base did help you a bit, in a real fight, he was sure that at least 3 people in here would give him a lot of trouble.

Especially with their unlocked spiritual sense. Since his main attacks were mental attacks, these people would last long enough to fight him.

"And do what?" Liang Qiu asked. "My Heaven's Peak school counts on me to break through to True King 5th realm during these 10 days. If I don't do that, I will have disappointed them."

"I can understand your intention here, sister Liang," He Liwei spoke from the side, his gold and brown robes somehow not catching more attention. "I too am in the same situation and am in a hurry to leave. But let's wait until someone comes soon."

"I believe sister Shen Huan should be bringing him soon," he said.

Liang Qi's eyes shone. "Who's coming?" she asked.

"Tian Ye," Song Shing spoke from the side. Liang Qi frowned when she saw this person. Strong he may be, but she still didn't like how he looked like he would drink blood if given the opportunity.

Still, if Tian Ye was coming, then she would wait.

Suddenly, a loud bang rang the surrounding, and everyone turned to look towards the door. A pale blue light flickered in front of it as it blocked the attack.

Han Daiyu turned around with her giant hammer hefted on her shoulders with her half-sleeved robes showing her big muscles.

She looked to the group who had just turned around and asked, "What? I got bored of waiting. If you guys want to help keep me company, then come along."

"Sister Daiyu… that's… never mind," someone from the Han family wanted to speak up towards their senior sister, but they knew how much she loved challenges.

Keeping her distracted with the door was likely better lest she went around the crowd, randomly looking for challenges herself.

Lu Yan stood in the small group with a green veil on her face and she softly spoke with a man with purple robes.

The purple in the robe started with dark purple at the bottom and as it went up, it lost its saturation, slowly changing to softer and softer purple until it was fully white.

There were 2 other young folks behind this young man but those two were surprisingly acting like guards who protected this young man rather than be his peers.

From time to time, Lu Yan would bow a little as she spoke to this young man.

Fu Tao frowned a little when he saw her speak to the young man, but he couldn't do anything at all. Despite being in the True Lord realm, that man was still a prince of the empire. So, he had the greatest saying in all of this place.

Alex looked at all of this with a keep eye while he waited for whoever this Tian Ye fellow was.

He took what he heard into memory and remembered the names of the ones that were the best of the young generation.

He recognized Fu Tao and Lu Yan from the time they were in Crimson Empire. Aside from them, he only learned the name of the other people.

Song Shing, from the Song clan, with the blood technique.

Shen Huan, from the Shen clan, who was absent at the moment.

Jin Tengfei, from the Jin clan, with the Sword Qi that Alex wanted too.

Han Daiyu with her large hammer from the Han Clan.

Zhou Ren with the white burnt robes from the Zhou clan.

Together with Fu Tao from the Fu clan, and Lu Yan from the Lu clan, these were some of the best descendants of the 7 great families of the Luminance empire.

The 8th honorary great family of colors, the Wei clan was the Royal family of the empire. If Alex had to guess, given their association with the color purple, it was likely the man speaking with Lu Yan.

He also learned a bit about the other sects as well.

The ghostly youth that left at the beginning was from the Broken Ravine sect.

The girl with the spear was from Heaven's Peak school.

The girl in pink and green was from the Falling Lotus sect.

And finally, the guy He Liwei was from the Glory's Edge sect.

Aside from that, there were other sect disciples or disciples of those same sects and clans as well, and Alex put their information in his head as well.

However, he didn't bother giving much thought to their information.

Even as everyone waited, instead of the crowd dispersing, more and more added to it.

Soon, there were nearly 200 of them here. Alex even saw disciples from the big sects and clans in the group now, but they didn't dare to go mix in with the elites at the front.

'Did those saint elders from the elite sects and clans go to get more of their disciples?' he wondered. That had to be it. If everyone was getting a chance to enter, they would be stupid to let this opportunity go by only sending 3 each.

Just as he was thinking that the crowd parted as two figures walked ahead.

The elite group turned their head around and suddenly relief appeared on their faces.

The woman that strolled upfront was wearing a blue robe that looked like water splashing across each other. She had a casual expression as she walked back to the elite group.

Behind her, a young man walked with a thunderous roar on every step. It felt like the ground shuddered as he appeared.

Alex looked in shock as he watched the young man in cyan robes walk forward and join the elite group.

Even as he did, a single question ran through Alex's mind.

'How the hell can a cultivator be this fat?'
