Extracting Billions Of Toxins And Tempering An Unsullied Body

Chapter 69: The Number One Alchemist, the Shock of the Supreme Purity Sect

?

When everyone saw this scene, they were completely dumbfounded.

Understood? Understood what?

Everyone seemed to feel that the world had become mysterious. Or was it that they had not woken up at all, resulting in an illusion.

As the judge, the Alchemy Emperor, Lu Haoxuan, actually personally stepped down from the stage and bowed to the contestants with a respectful attitude. Those who did not know would have thought that the Alchemy Emperor of the ancient times had personally come to the scene.

Who am I? Where am I? What should I do?

Everyone was shocked, and they could not recover. One had to know that Gu Xi was only around 20 years old. What right did he have to make the famous Alchemy Emperor bow down to him like this?

Lu Haoxuan had become famous at a young age and already had the title of Alchemy Emperor. It had already been deeply rooted in the hearts of everyone. It was almost the goal and dream of all the alchemists in the world. However, now, this scene was simply extraordinary...

Did this mean that Gu Xi’s future achievements were even higher than that of the Alchemy Emperor?!

Even though Gu Xi had refined a Flawless quality pill in public, the alchemists still felt extremely complicated when faced with the Alchemy Emperor’s attitude.

However, the more shocking thing was still to come. When Lu Haoxuan saw that Gu Xi did not speak, he thought that Gu Xi felt that he was not sincere enough. He sincerely said again, “Young friend, please accept this old man’s bow.”

!!

There were even some fanatical followers of Lu Haoxuan who could not endure this kind of scene and fainted. The scene immediately fell into chaos, so much so that no one paid attention to when the Alchemy Emperor and Gu Xi left the arena.

Speaking of the final scene of the alchemy competition, it would presumably become an unforgettable memory for everyone. In a short moment, the news spread through the streets and alleys of the Capital like wildfire.

“Hey, have you heard? A dark horse suddenly broke out of the encirclement of the alchemy competition. Even Alchemy Emperor Lu’s disciple was defeated!”

“Spread the word. Someone went crazy in the alchemy competition. Even Alchemy Emperor Lu wasn’t his match. He could only admit defeat.”

“What?! Isn’t it an alchemy competition? Why does it sound like a martial arts competition?”

“Shocking! Alchemy Emperor Lu actually knelt down in front of the contestants. This person was suspected to be the reincarnation of the Ancient Alchemy Emperor. He was the founder that all alchemists had to worship. Countless alchemists were fanatical and excited. There were even some who fainted on the spot.”

Although the rumors were somewhat ridiculous in the end, there were still quite a number of people who knew of Gu Xi’s existence. They also knew of his wonderful performance on the stage. They kept inquiring about Gu Xi’s background and identity.

Fortunately, Wu Huaqing and the others had good eyesight at that time. Seeing that the situation was not good, they quickly fled with the other disciples. Otherwise, it would be a problem whether they could walk out of the competition venue or not.

Soon, Wu Huaqing also sent this message back to the Supreme Purity Sect. After receiving the message, the Sect Master and the others froze on the spot. “How could this be –”

When the others saw the Sect Master’s incredulous expression, they thought that it was bad news from the Capital. They could not help but ask, “Sect master, could it be that we don’t even have a single person who advanced in the competition? Were we eliminated in the preliminary round?”

The Sect Master shook his head. The others could not help but feel dejected. It seemed that the situation was even worse. It was likely that they had all been wiped out. Otherwise, the Sect Master would not have shown such an expression. Everyone was somewhat dejected, but then they pulled themselves together and comforted him.

“Sect Master, it doesn’t matter. The first competition is on the Dao of alchemy. We weren’t particularly good at it, to begin with. In addition, we didn’t have any outstanding disciples. In the second competition on the Dao of the sword, with Gu Xi and the others holding down the fort, it’s likely that we’ll be able to obtain even better results.”

The Sect Master muttered, “Who said that Gu Xi’s swordsmanship is the most outstanding...”

Everyone’s expressions were somewhat puzzled. Everyone knew that Gu Xi had killed a high-level demonic beast with a single sword strike back then, and thus obtained the Sect Master’s favor. The Second Elder said, “He naturally has outstanding swordsmanship.”

The Sect Master would suddenly burst out laughing, losing his usual calmness. “Wrong, we were all wrong!”

Seeing his excited appearance, the other elders thought that the result of the competition was too bad and had received quite a bit of stimulation.

“Even if the Sect Master loses the competition, it doesn’t matter. When the elites of the capital gather, we are truly–”

Before he could finish speaking, the Sect Master glared at him as if he was looking at a fool. “Who said we lost? Gu Xi placed first in the Dao of alchemy and successfully advanced to the finals. In the end, even the Alchemy Emperor bowed to him.”

This time, it was everyone’s turn to look at him as if they were looking at a fool. They looked at each other as if they were listening to a fairy tale. They were even more certain that the sect leader had suffered a great shock.

“Sect Master, are you alright?” they asked carefully, afraid that they would touch the Sect Master’s minefield again. “Why don’t you rest first. You can leave the rest to us, we will take care of everything.”

The Sect Master rolled his eyes. “Take a look for yourself.”

After the elders read the contents of the message, they all revealed incredulous expressions. They stuttered, “Elder Wu, you can’t be joking. You’re making fun of us, right? Number one in the Dao of alchemy? How is this possible?”

“Isn’t Gu Xi’s sword cultivation outstanding? When did he become so skilled in alchemy? We actually never knew about it.”

“Good kid. He actually hid it so well. If it wasn’t for the Great Dao Conference Competition in the Capital, we wouldn’t even know about it.”

However, no matter how unbelievable it was or how bizarre the facts were, Wu Huaqing would never joke about such a matter. The information he sent back should not be wrong at all.

Recalling the various suspicious aspects of Gu Xi, everyone revealed pensive expressions. The Sect Master naturally knew that Gu Xi had many secrets, but he did not expect him to bring such a big surprise.

No matter what, Gu Xi was a member of their Supreme Purity Sect. This was also a matter to glorify their ancestors.

There was no need to mention the Gu Clan. They were so happy that they were about to go crazy. The Clan Master of the Gu Clan announced on the spot that he would hold a banquet for three days and three nights in a row. He wished that the whole world would know about this.
