Battle Through the Heavens: Emperor's Son Xiao Yan

Chapter 23 Holy Pill City

The moon splashes against the Milky Way, the road stretches on endlessly, the smoke and dust dissipate, and a solitary figure stands alone in the fading light.

Who told me to be so exceptionally talented, and who told me to be so skilled in alchemy?

Xiao Yan sat high on a star peak in the Starfall Pavilion. His azure Dou Qi entered his body through his nostrils, circulated several times, and then returned to the Dou Qi vortex. In this back and forth, he refined some of the energy of heaven and earth.

"No wonder people from the outside world cultivate at a much slower pace than my Xiao clan," Xiao Yan sighed.

The Starfall Pavilion is already a first-rate power in the Central Continent, and the energy in the Star Realm is even more concentrated. With the addition of special formations, the energy concentration is almost three times that of the outside world.

However, this level of intensity is only considered average in the Xiao Realm.

The energy intensity of the Xiao Realm is generally three to five times that of the outside world. Places where powerful descendants like Xiao Yan cultivate are even eight or ten times stronger. With such cultivation conditions, plus the talent bestowed by bloodline power,

No wonder there are so many Battle Kings and Battle Emperors in the Xiao Realm.

A month has passed, and he has only recovered to the level of a two-star Dou Huang. Xiao Yan shook his head helplessly.

"Disciple!" An aged voice rang in Xiao Yan's ears.

He was dressed in a long blue robe, and his originally messy hair and beard had been carefully groomed, giving him a somewhat otherworldly and dignified appearance at first glance.

Are you going to find your old flame to dance in the square?

Xiao Yan inwardly scoffed, but knowing Yao Lao wouldn't understand square dancing, he asked, "Dressed up so flamboyantly, are you going on a date with your old flame?"

"Ahem." The old apothecary couldn't help but cough twice, then said seriously, "I'm just going to see an old friend."

"Why would you need to apply fragrant herbs when meeting an old friend?"

"Can we skip this topic for now?" Old Yao blushed slightly, staring at Xiao Yan with a smile, "How's your alchemy going lately?"

"You've been guiding me every day, how could you not know?" Xiao Yan glanced at Yao Lao.

"Hehe." The old alchemist chuckled and rubbed his hands together, saying, "You really are a genius at alchemy. You can refine a fifth-grade peak pill even without a special fire. If you had a special fire, you would already be a sixth-grade alchemist by now."

"Tsk tsk, a 15-year-old sixth-grade alchemist, even in the Medicine Clan, such talent has not appeared for nearly a thousand years. Perhaps only the Medicine Emperor of that time had such talent."

"My disciple has the potential to become an emperor."

The old doctor stroked his beard and laughed, his old face almost turning into a blooming chrysanthemum.

"I really want to see the day when your alchemy skills are unparalleled and you crush those younger members of the medicine clan."

"You wish," Xiao Yan sneered. "My mother is the daughter of an elder of the Medicine Clan, and many of the Medicine Clan's prodigies are my cousins. By the way, you're also from the Medicine Clan, right? We're distant relatives."

"Your mother is from the Medicine Clan." Upon hearing this, the old medicine master was taken aback at first, and then a look of melancholy appeared on his face.

"Alright, alright, I came to tell you that the competition is in seven days. Get ready, we're about to leave."

"Is it about to begin?" Xiao Yan was taken aback at first, then looked at Yao Lao and said, "Wait a moment."

After saying that, he spread his battle qi wings and flew back to his residence.

Half an hour later, when Xiao Yan reappeared in front of Yao Lao, he almost blinded Yao Lao's eyes.

The young man was dressed in a white robe with gold thread, on which two clumps of ink bamboo were lightly drawn. His tall and slender figure, which had already begun to fully develop, was like a clothes hanger.

It was as if this exquisite outfit was tailor-made for him, complementing him perfectly.

The boy's originally loose long hair was tied up with a seven-dragon golden crown and a snow-white jade hairpin inserted in it.

As the saying goes, clothes make the man, and with this outfit, Xiao Yan's already handsome face became even more dashing.

Handsome and dashing, full of youthful vigor.

With two strands of hair casually falling across his forehead and a subtle air of roguishness about him, coupled with a maturity beyond his years in his dark eyes, he was enough to attract the attention of many young girls.

"You're still the most flamboyant one." After a long pause, the old apothecary finally managed to utter a sentence.

"Same to you. The master leads you in, but how you show off is up to you."

Xiao Yan chuckled lightly, exuding the air of a refined young gentleman.

"Let's not delay any longer. Since we're both ready, let's go." With a wave of his hand, the old man of medicine created a spatial passage.

"Let's go..." As his voice rang out, Xiao Yan also flew into the spatial passage.

"What's that smell? The scent of the perfume on you is so strange. What kind of perfume is it?"

"Chanel Bleu de Chanel Men's".

"What a strange name."

"Don't worry about its name, as long as it works."

"That makes sense. I'll take a look at the prescription later and see if there's anything that can be improved."

"Just say you want the prescription..."

Inside the spatial passage, two people could be heard whispering to each other…

Saint Pill City, located in the center of the Pill Domain, is magnificent and awe-inspiring.

With the seven ancient races absent, Saint Pill City was arguably the most prosperous place on the Dou Qi Continent.

This place is teeming with powerful individuals and alchemists, which means that the wealthiest people on the Dou Qi Continent have all come here.

It can be called the CBD of Central China!

In addition to its magnificent main city, Saint Dan also has eight huge plazas in the surrounding area.

At this moment, outside a huge square outside the city, all sorts of powerful alchemists and alchemists thronged the area, with flames of various colors frequently rising up.

It is clear that there are alchemists here making medicine on the spot.

At this moment, the space trembled, and a silver halo suddenly expanded in the air, causing countless powerful figures in the square to look up in awe.

To create a spatial passage on one's own is a skill that only a Dou Zun powerhouse possesses.

Even in the Holy Pill City, where experts abound, a Dou Zun level expert can be considered a top-tier expert.

As the spatial passage opened, an elderly man in a blue robe with an air of otherworldly elegance emerged, followed by a young man in a white robe, both handsome and dashing.

"It's him! Medicine Venerable Yao Chen!" someone exclaimed, and the already bustling square became even noisier.

"The Medicine Venerable Yao Chen! It is said that his alchemy skills are extremely advanced, even surpassing the three giants of the Pill Tower."

"Yes, it is said that this person's alchemy skills are only a hair's breadth away from the ninth rank. Once he reaches the ninth rank, he can be considered the number one alchemist on the continent."

"This person's appearance in the Dan Tower suggests something is about to happen again."

"Hey, who's that young man following behind him? Could he be his newly accepted disciple?"

Someone noticed Xiao Yan behind Yao Lao.

"My God, a disciple of the Medicine Venerable! If I could become a disciple of the Medicine Venerable, I would be on a meteoric rise to the top."

"It's like their ancestors' graves are emitting auspicious smoke!"

"Nonsense, that's not called emitting blue smoke, that's called spitting fire!"

"Wow, this young man is so handsome and has such a great presence." Many female alchemists' eyes were already shining as they looked at Xiao Yan.

"I wish I had a boyfriend like that!"

"Don't be so infatuated with her. Did you see the fighting spirit wings behind her?"

"So young, yet already possessing wings of battle qi. Even as a disciple of the Medicine Venerable, he has a promising future. How could a nobody like you be worthy of him?"

"What did you say? You think you'd be interested in a vixen like you if you didn't like me?"

"Who are you calling a vixen!"

"I'm talking about you, you little bitch!"

Two female alchemists got into a fight in the square because of Xiao Yan.

Something came up outside, so I'll update later tonight. I'll post this first and then revise it. Sorry.
