Alchemy Sovereign Against the Heaven-Chapter 49 - Jun Muqing’s Cultivation
49: Chapter 49 Jun Muqing’s Cultivation
49 -49 Jun Muqing’s Cultivation
Mo Wangchen was taken aback, this woman had an unusual aura, not someone from an ordinary family.
He asked in confusion, “You are…”
“My name is Liang Yuqiu, from the Liang Family,” the woman said after a slight pause.
Liang Family?
Mo Wangchen was shocked.
Could it be the Liang Family of Yunge City?
He was naturally not unfamiliar with this family, as it was one of the five great families of Yunge City, just like the Jun Family!
“Most people come to this Alchemy Pavilion to buy pills.
It’s rare to see someone like you picking out materials here, unless you’re an Alchemist?” Liang Yuqiu looked Mo Wangchen up and down with a curious expression.
Mo Wangchen didn’t answer her but looked at Liang Yuqiu with some confusion and asked back, “Are you also an Alchemist?”
“A first-grade Alchemist, about to take the second-grade assessment,” Liang Yuqiu answered without hiding it.
In Yunge City, the fact that she was an Alchemist was no longer a secret.
“Second-grade…”
Hearing her words, Mo Wangchen was slightly surprised.
Liang Yuqiu looked about twenty, two years older than him.
Yet, at such a young age, she was participating in the second-grade Alchemist assessment, which was rare in Yun Country, right?
“There aren’t many young Alchemists, especially those under twenty.
I’ve heard that over in Jianye City, there’s a Tang Zihan who recently became a first-grade Alchemist.
She’s younger than twenty as well.” After speaking, Liang Yuqiu’s gaze swept over the shelves of materials, as if searching for something she needed.
“Tang Zihan…”
Mo Wangchen paused, a figure instantly appearing in his mind.
Wasn’t she the woman he met at the entrance of the auction house in Jianye City?
Master Xue Zheng’s disciple, right!
“There truly aren’t many young Alchemists, given the difficulty of entry.
I myself have just become a first-grade Alchemist,” Mo Wangchen said with a smile.
“In Yunge City, I haven’t heard of such a young Alchemist like you.
You’re not from Yunge City?” Liang Yuqiu continued to survey the materials on the shelf, speaking without looking at Mo Wangchen.
“Indeed, I’m not,” Mo Wangchen said honestly, smiling, “I passed the Yun Chu Academy’s assessment this year and will soon be a new disciple.”
“Oh?” Hearing this, Liang Yuqiu finally looked at him, “I’m also a disciple of Yun Chu Academy, so you should call me Senior Sister.”
Mo Wangchen paused and then smiled without any pretense, “Senior Sister Liang is not only soon to be a second-grade Alchemist, but her cultivation should have reached the Spirit Transformation Realm as well.
I’ve long heard that Yun Chu Academy is a cradle of geniuses.
If everyone in it is like Senior Sister, I fear I’ll be under pressure…”
“Pressure breeds motivation.”
Liang Yuqiu smiled and continued, “I mainly study Alchemy Dao, and my Martial Arts cultivation is only mid-tier in the academy.”
“Only mid-tier?!”
Mo Wangchen was shocked.
A cultivation at the Spirit Transformation Realm was only mid-tier within Yun Chu Academy?
“You mustn’t underestimate Yun Chu Academy.
Those geniuses who focus on Martial Arts are not simple.
Recently, a monstrous talent came to the academy, who condensed three Spirit Veins in the Vein Condensation Realm.
They’ve now broken through to the Spirit Transformation Realm and were recently accepted as a disciple by the academy.” At this, Liang Yuqiu’s brows furrowed slightly, her eyes revealing a hint of seriousness.
“Jun Muqing!”
Hearing this, Mo Wangchen’s eyes narrowed slightly.
He knew who she was talking about.
“You know her too?” Liang Yuqiu was slightly surprised.
“Heh, the number one genius in Yun Country in the past hundred years, how could anyone not know…” Mo Wangchen chuckled dryly.
“Indeed.” Liang Yuqiu nodded and then sighed, “Speaking of Jun Muqing, she truly is extraordinary.
The Jun Family, although now one of the five great families of Yunge City, only came to Yunge City about twenty years ago.
Yet now, they are already a prestigious family in Yun Country.”
“What’s Jun Muqing’s current cultivation?” Mo Wangchen asked after a moment of silence.
“After joining the academy, with the dean’s personal guidance, her cultivation advanced rapidly.
She’s now at the second level of the Spirit Transformation Realm and is said to be close to the third level!”
“So soon?”
Mo Wangchen was surprised.
When Jun Muqing went to the Mo Family to annul the engagement, she was only at the first level of the Spirit Transformation Realm, right?
It’s only been over a month, and she’s ready to reach the third level of the Spirit Transformation Realm?
It seems her talent is indeed no simple matter!
Even though he had a Heavenly Dao Body, his previous cultivation had lagged too much, making it difficult to catch up with Jun Muqing.
After all, she wouldn’t just stay in one place without any progress!
“Entering the academy is just the beginning.
There are many geniuses and monstrous talents there.
As a new arrival, you’ll start in the Outer Court.
Work hard to enter the Inner Court soon!” Liang Yuqiu said, seemingly not finding the materials she needed, then turned and left.
“Outer Court huh…”
Mo Wangchen stood still.
He hadn’t heard of Yun Chu Academy having an Inner and Outer Court division.
“There aren’t any materials for the Nine Aperture Spirit Pill here.
Liang Yuqiu just headed to the second floor of the Alchemy Pavilion.
Could there be higher-grade materials up there?” With this thought, Mo Wangchen took a step forward.
As he reached the stairs leading to the second floor and was about to go up, he was stopped by a servant nearby.
“Sir, do you have the credential to enter the second floor?” the servant asked with a polite smile.
“Credential?” Mo Wangchen paused, “What kind of credential?”
“Sir doesn’t seem to be from Yunge City?” The servant sized up Mo Wangchen, then explained, “Not everyone can go to the second floor.
Only those who have spent enough gold coins here can enter with a membership credential, or if you have the identity of an Alchemist…”
At this point, the servant stopped, thinking there was no need to continue, as he believed the young man before him couldn’t be an Alchemist.
However, just as he had this thought, Mo Wangchen took out a jade token from his pocket, handed it over, and smiled, “Can I go up with this?”
“A Guest Token?!”
The servant’s eyes widened in disbelief.
No way?
To become a Guest Alchemist of the Alchemy Pavilion, one had to be a second-grade Alchemist.
He thought this young man wasn’t even an Alchemist, yet he took out a Guest Alchemist token?
