Chapter 2815: The Alchemy Conference
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
When they returned to the Tai Yi Celestial Sect’s estate, Duan Ling Tian took the Memory Celestial Talisman and the two Royal Grade Celestial Weapons from Huan’er and stored them in his Spatial Ring.
At this moment, three familiar voices rang out in unison. “Master Duan!”
Duan Ling Tian was taken aback. ‘Why are they here?’ He knew the voices belonged to the three prominent Celestial Alchemists in the Tai Yi Celestial Sect. “Master Situ, Master Yang, Master Yu... What brings you here?”
Huan’er had entered her own room when Duan Ling Tian invited Situ Ming, Yang Chong, and Yu Zhong Jing into his front courtyard.
“Master Duan, we heard about what happened from the sect leader! You barely escaped death in the Little World!” Situ Ming said solemnly.
“If we knew how dangerous the Little World was, we would’ve stopped you no matter what,” Yang Chong added.
“That’s right,” Yu Zhong Jing chimed in.
“Barely escaped death? That’s too much of an exaggeration... I’m out and alive, aren’t I?” Duan Ling Tian shook his head and smiled.
Naturally, no one knew Duan Ling Tian was aware of how dangerous the Little World was before he even entered it. Moreover, he knew as long as he had Huan’er by his side, he was not in any danger. Due to various reasons, he had to keep all these a secret.
“How is it an exaggeration? Master Duan, we heard that out of so many people who entered the Little World, everyone, except for you, one Great Overarching Golden Celestial, and one Violet Sun Golden Celestial, died.” Yang Chong’s expression grew increasingly solemn as he spoke.
“That’s right... Excluding you, only two people survived. Moreover, one of them only managed to survive because he had a breakthrough and became a Great Overarching Golden Celestial in the Little World,” Situ Ming said as he nodded.
“Barely escaped death and obtained nothing... It’s really not worth it,” Yu Zhong Jin said.
Duan Ling Tian could feel the sincerity of these three prominent Celestial Alchemists, and a warm feeling flooded his heart. He quickly changed the topic since he was uncomfortable with the current topic. “That’s right! Three masters, does the sect possess any Duke Grade Celestial Methods and Divine Abilities?”
Since Duan Ling Tian had become an Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial and obtained the King Grade cultivation method, the Taiyi Profound Method, he hoped to master high-grade Celestial Techniques and Divine Abilities. The only heaven-grade he possessed was his assist-type Divine Ability, the Elementary Devouring Tactic. The others were only earth-grade Divine Abilities. As for his Celestial Method, the Supreme Sword Dao Mental Cultivation Method, the Sovereign Heart Sword, was also only comparable to an earth-grade Celestial Method.
Cultivation methods, Divine Abilities, and Celestial Methods all shared the same grading system. Above the heaven grade, there were Duke Grade, King Grade, Royal Grade, and Emperor Grade.
Duan Ling Tian thought that if the Tai Yi Celestial Sect possessed Duke Grade Celestial Methods and Divine Abilities, he was open to mastering them and replacing his earth-grade Celestial Methods and Divine Abilities. However, if they only had heaven-grade Celestial Methods and Divine Abilities, he would not attempt to master them. After all, it would only be a waste of his time. By the time he completely mastered them, who knew if he would obtain Duke Grade Celestial Methods and Divine Abilities?
“There is a Duke Grade Celestial Method. It’s a movement Celestial Method. Apart from that, the sect also has an offensive and an assist-type Duke Grade Divine Ability.”
“If Master Duan wants to cultivate the Duke Grade Celestial Method and Divine Abilities, we’ll accompany you to speak to the sect leader about it. I don’t think he’ll refuse you. After all, the sect places importance on the Duke Grade cultivation method more than the Duke Grade Celestial Method and Divine Abilities,” Situ Ming said.
“Yes. I’m afraid we won’t be of much help if Master Duan wants to master the Duke Grade cultivation method... However, if it’s the Duke Grade Celestial Method and Divine Abilities, we’ll be able to persuade the sect leader,” Yang Chong added.
“That’s right.” Yu Zhong Jing nodded in agreement.
“If that’s the case, three masters, please follow me,” Duan Ling Tian said. His eyes brightened when he heard the words of the three prominent Celestial Alchemists.
Duan Ling Tian did not expect the Tai Yi Celestial Sect would possess Duke Grade Celestial Method and Divine Abilities. Who knew he would have a chance to master them when he had casually asked about it? He was indeed interested in the Duke Grade Celestial Method in the sect. As for the Duke Grade Divine Abilities, Duan Ling Tian was only interested in the offensive Divine Ability. After all, he had already mastered the Elementary Devouring Tactic, a heaven-grade assist-type Divine Ability. Before he could fully master it, its strength would still be weaker than the Elementary Devouring Tactic, and by the time he mastered it, he was confident he would have already obtained a higher grade assist-type Divine Ability. Therefore, he was not interested in the assist-type Duke Grade Divine Ability. He had to choose wisely.
As expected, when Duan Ling Tian and three prominent Celestial Alchemists spoke to Bai Ping, the Sect Leader of Tai Yi Celestial Sect, Bai Ping readily handed the Duke Grade Celestial Method and Divine Abilities to Duan Ling Tian.
“Master Duan, I would’ve given you the Duke Grade Celestial Method and Divine Abilities even if the three prominent Celestial Alchemists didn’t speak up for you. However, due to the rules of the sect, I can’t give you the Duke Grade cultivation method...” Bai Ping said bluntly. He knew that Duan Ling Tian had long wanted to master the Duke Grade cultivation method of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect. However, he was unaware that the current Duan Ling Tian had lost interest in the Duke Grade cultivation method. After all, Du Fei, a Ten Directions Celestial Duke, had given him a King Grade cultivation method, the Taiyi Profound Method, when he was in the Little World.
“Thank you, sect leader.” Regardless, Duan Ling Tian was still grateful to Bai Ping.
Before they left Bai Ping’s residence, Yang Chong seemed to have recalled something and said, “Master Duan, if you are in search of other Celestial Methods and Divine Abilities, there will be a chance for you soon... The Alchemy Conference is coming up in two years!”
“The Alchemy Conference?” Duan Ling Tian appeared confused. It was his first time hearing about the Alchemy Conference, after all.
“Every 30 years, the Wasteland and the surrounding regions would come together to organize the Alchemy Conference. Celestial Alchemists from the Wasteland and other regions can have discussions and exchange ideas with each other. It’s a great learning opportunity!”
“Since there would undoubtedly be disagreements and disputes between Celestial Alchemists, many people would compete in alchemy to prove their points. More often than not, Celestial Alchemists would wager their Duke Grade Celestial Methods or Divine Abilities. There are many two-in-one Duke Grade Celestial Methods and Divine Abilities such as an offensive and defensive Divine Ability. Although it’s rare, there are also three-in-one Duke Grade Celestial Methods or Divine Abilities!” Situ Ming explained.
‘Two-in-one and three-in-one Duke Grade Celestial Methods or Divine Abilities?!’ Duan Ling Tian’s breathing quickened when he heard Situ Ming’s words.
In the Devata Realms, there were single-trait, double-trait, and triple-trait Celestial Methods and Divine Abilities. A single-trait Celestial Method and Divine Ability were definitely incomparable to Celestial Methods or Divine Abilities with double or triple traits that were made up of the offensive, defensive, movement, or assistive traits. After all, it would take one a long time to master two single-trait Celestial Methods or Divine Abilities. It would definitely be faster if one could master a double-trait or triple-trait Celestial Method or Divine Ability. One could obtain the same result with a lesser time, who would not choose a double-trait or triple-trait Celestial Method or Divine Ability over single-trait Celestial Methods and Divine Abilities?
“The Alchemy Conference will be held in two years?” Duan Ling Tian asked as he looked at Situ Ming with eyes that were brimming with hope.
“Yes,” Situ Ming nodded and continued to say, “What a coincidence... The Alchemy Conference will be held in the Barren Land that’s adjacent to the Wasteland.”
“In the past Alchemy Conferences, the Celestial Alchemists from the Wasteland were only there to watch the excitement... However, now that we have Master Duan, it’s time for the Wasteland to shine. With your cauldron heating speed... Not to mention in the Wasteland, even the other regions are no match for your speed!” Yang Chong said before he laughed heartily.
“Exactly! Look for a Celestial Alchemist that’s rich and boorish and compete with him in speed. You’ll definitely win!” Situ Ming said.
“A contest in heating the cauldron? Really?” Duan Ling Tian was surprised. “However... I’ll need to put out something as valuable as a Duke Grade Celestial Method or Divine Ability if I want to compete or make a bet, right?” In order to bet or compete, one would have to provide a valuable reward, right? Why would someone agree to a bet without sufficiently valuable rewards?
Although Duan Ling Tian possessed the Chaos Divine Flame and was confident in his heating speed, he remained humble. He asked many questions to gain an understanding of the contests or bets.
