The Infinite Mystery-Chapter 220 - Alchemist Association
Three days later, Qin Feng once again left the Celestial Star Sect with the excuse of going outside to train.
He headed straight to Wind Cloud City, the closest place from the Celestial Star City. The Wind Cloud City was one of the six major cities in the Central Region. It was several times bigger than the biggest city in the Eastern Region.
The Wind Cloud City was ruled by the Wind Cloud Sect.
In the Wind Cloud City, there were many major powers that were not as powerful as the Six Overlord Sects. There were also some major powers that were far more powerful than the Six Overlord Sects and they had their own branches.
For example, some chambers of commerce, the Alchemist Association, the Weapon Refinement Association, and so on.
These kinds of powers were established in every big and small city of the Profound Star Continent and it's said that the headquarter of these powers were at some higher leveled worlds.
The reason Qin Feng left the Celestial Star Sect this time was because of the Alchemist Association in the Wind Cloud City.
The Alchemist Association was an unaffiliated gathering organized by some top alchemists countless years ago. No force dared to underestimate the Alchemist Association. Because almost 90% of the high grade alchemists came from the Alchemist Association.
Whether it was the major powers or individuals, even the top experts would need to use pills to improve their cultivation base and strength. They would ask for help from the Alchemist Association.
Therefore, no one was willing to offend the Alchemist Association.
The Alchemist Association in the Wind Cloud City was one of many branches. However, even if it was a branch, it wasn't any weaker than the Celestial Star Sect or Wind Cloud Sect. In fact, it was even slightly stronger.
The Celestial Star Sect also had many high grade pills that they wanted to buy from the Alchemist Association. It was precisely because Qin Feng had obtained this information that he wanted to go there.
There was another reason why Qin Feng was going to the Alchemist Association of the Wind Cloud City. It was because he wanted to obtain the identity of an Alchemist. This identity might come in handy in the future.
Qin Feng had already decided that after obtaining the identity of an alchemist, he'll return to Planet Raco.
Qin Feng didn't choose to go to the Alchemist Association of the Celestial Star City because he didn't want to attract the attention of his sect. After all, there, he might encounter some disciples of the Celestial Star Sect who know who he was.
Within the Wind Cloud City, the Alchemist Association's ability to concoct pills was much stronger than any Sect's Pill Refining Hall.
He only needed to get the alchemist certificate. With the Alchemist Association's background, he could concoct pills and sell pills to earn a large number of cultivation resources. At that time, he would be able to continue improving his cultivation base and strength.
Qin Feng scanned his surroundings with his spiritual sense. After confirming that no one was following him, he increased his speed. He started to travel at full speed.
Lightning was flashing on his body and kept flickering. His speed was so fast that even Pure Soul Realm martial warriors couldn't compare to him in terms of speed.
Soon, more than three hours had passed. A city as majestic city appeared in front of Qin Feng.
"Is this the Wind Cloud City? As expected of one of the top cities in the Central Region!"
Qin Feng looked from afar and murmured in a low voice. After that, he slowed down and continued on his way. Not long after, he entered the Wind Cloud City.
There were pavilions, red bricks, and green tiles here. It looked like a big ancient city. The prosperity of this place was close to the Celestial Star City but this city was giving off an entirely different feeling from the Celestial Star City.
Qin Feng looked around and sighed with emotion in his heart. However, he was experienced. Although these things surprised him a little, it was nothing. 𝒇𝐫ℯ𝑒𝒘ℯ𝑏n𝑜ѵ𝐞l.c𝗼𝗺
Qin Feng quickly calmed down. After asking around, he walked towards the Alchemist Association.
Not long after, he arrived in front of a huge building complex that looked like a Pill Tripod. A fragrant scent was emitted. The signboard at the entrance was inscribed with the words "Alchemist Association".
An intimidating aura filled the air.
If a person's cultivation base wasn't at the Profound Spirit Realm, his eyes would be pierced by these words.
"This is the Alchemist Association?"
Qin Feng stood on the square outside the door and kept staring at the scene.
The surrounding people were all at least Profound Spirit Realm martial warriors and there were also many Heaven Ascension Realm martial warriors. This showed the status of the Alchemist Association.
There were no guards outside the Alchemist Association. Because no one dared to cause trouble in the Alchemist Association. They didn't need guards to maintain order.
Moreover, because alchemists only knew how to concoct pills. Their strength was very weak.
Every alchemist could concoct a large number of precious pills and sell them. They were very wealthy. They didn't lack Spirit Stones and they also had countless Spirit weapons, secret manuals, and other treasures that can save their lives at critical moments. They don't even need to launch an attack. They can easily crush those at the same level with all kinds of treasures.
However, this was not a big deal. The most powerful thing about alchemists was their appeal. Even top experts had to find an alchemist to concoct pills. Thus, every alchemist had a terrifying network of connections.
There were many problems that they didn't even need to deal with before someone took the initiative to settle them for them.
Those who dared to cause trouble in the Alchemist Association would find it hard to come out again.
Qin Feng looked around and pondered for a while. Then, he walked into the Alchemist Association.
At this moment, a proud female voice came from behind him.
"What are you standing at the door for? Get out of the way!"
Qin Feng heard the voice and looked over. He saw a beautiful girl with a curvy figure and long shoulder-length hair walking over quickly.
She was wearing a white robe specially designed for alchemists. There was a palm-sized cauldron carved on her chest and there were two gray pentagram stars on the cauldron.
Qin Feng's expression changed slightly when he saw this. He did not expect to meet a pill refinement genius so easily.
In the Alchemist Association, alchemists were divided into different grades according to their proficiency in concocting the highest grade of pills.
They were divided into Mortal Rank Alchemists, Profound Rank Alchemists, Earth Rank Alchemists, and Heaven Rank Alchemists. Each grade was further divided into lower, middle, and upper grades.
Among them, Low Grade Mortal Rank was the lowest, and Upper Grade Heaven Rank was the highest.
Mortal Rank Alchemists could only concoct Rank 3 and Rank 2 pills that could be used by Body Refinement and Foundation Establishment Realm martial warriors. Therefore, the robes of such alchemists were completely blank and the most crude.
They were also the most common alchemists.
Profound Rank Alchemists could only concoct Rank 3 and Rank 4 pills that could be used by Innate Realm and Golden Core Realm martial warriors.
Earth Rank Alchemists could only concoct Rank 5, Rank 6, and Rank 7 pills that could be used by Profound Spirit Realm, Heaven Ascension Realm, and Dao Manifestation Realm martial warriors.
As for those Heaven Rank Alchemists, they were much rarer. They could refine Rank 8, Rank 9, and Rank 10 pills that could be used by Pure Soul Realm, Great Soul Realm, Heavenly Soul Realm martial warriors.
A palm-sized cauldron carved on the chest of alchemist robes and a pentagram star was the sign that an alchemist could refine Rank 5 pills. It also meant that this girl was actually a Low Grade Earth Rank alchemist.
Meanwhile, in the entire Central Region, the highest grade was Upper Grade Earth Rank Alchemists. This was also the reason why many people could only stay stuck at the Dao Manifestation Realm, never to advance to the Pure Soul Realm.
As for Heaven Rank alchemists, they were also known as master alchemists. There was not a single person in the entire Central Region. They were probably only able to appear in the lands of Profound Star Continent that were broken and separated from the five regions a hundred thousand years ago.
Looking at the girl's appearance, she was obviously less than twenty-three years old. To be able to become a Low Grade Earth Rank alchemist at such a young age, this showed that she was a genius alchemist.
Qin Feng was really very surprised when he saw her.. It was because he didn't expect such a genius alchemist to appear here.
