Chapter 4044: Ten Crowned Pill King

speaking, Ye Bufan suddenly felt a sense of foreboding."No, run away!""Do you want to leave now It's too late." Carlos burst into a frenzied laughter. "Just moments ago, I activated the self-destruct...Ye Bufan walked into the barrier. Compared to the outside crowd, it was much better inside.

The large square has six fixed seats, belonging to the Alchemist's Guild and the Five Major Sects.

The remaining small sects had no place of their own and were mixed in with the ordinary celestial elixir masters who participated.

Hua Qiqiao was at the Alchemist Guild's seat, Ye Bufan couldn't go over easily, and soon found Xia Qingying.

"Young Master Ye, you're here."

Upon seeing Ye Bufan's arrival, Xia Qingying's beautiful eyes sparkled with uncontrollable excitement.

Ye Bufan smiled slightly at her and sat down in the seat next to her.

Just then, a swaggering young man walked over. It was none other than Yin Tong, the head disciple of Bai Cao Men.

Xia Qingying, I thought you had already been scared off, didn't expect you would dare to participate.

"Then you're prepared. Wait until you lose the competition, and then become my Dao partner. Don't go back to Baodan Sect, come directly back to Bai Caomen with me."

This guy is extremely conceited, and his tone is arrogantly superior.

"You..."

Xia Qingying's face suddenly turned ugly. She now deeply regretted why she had impulsively made that bet back then.

Seeing her like this, Yin Tong became even more pleased with himself.

You are such a slut. Back then, I pursued you so relentlessly, and you chose to reject me.

Now, not only will you obediently become my Dao companion, but the Bao Dan Sect will also be disgraced.

At last, he burst into a triumphant and arrogant laugh.

"I said, are you kidding me This bet is a guaranteed loss. How can you still be so happy"

Just as he was feeling incredibly smug, a mocking voice rang in his ear.

"Ready Once the competition is over, come crawling here and apologize."

Yin Tong's expression changed, his eyes narrowed dangerously as he looked at Ye Bufan.

"Brat, you're just a mere 8th-order Immortal Alchemist. Do you have the right to speak"

Ye Bufan smiled slightly: "A bet Then let's raise the stakes. I have five billion Xianjing here, do you dare to bet"

Yesterday, I killed Qu Heng. I have to say, a Level 12 Immortal Alchemist is really wealthy.

That guy's ring held a whopping five hundred million high-grade Xian crystals, plus a lot of Xianling grass and refining materials.

Yin Tong looked at Ye Bufan, his face full of astonishment: "Boy, are you serious"

"Of course."

Ye Bufan took out a storage ring and shook it. "The Immortal Crystal is right here, it all depends on whether you dare to gamble."

After consuming the Spirit Nurturing Fruit, he could clearly feel his spiritual power steadily rising.

However, by the time one reaches the Immortal Venerable level, breakthroughs are no longer as swift as before. But seizing the position of Alchemist King should still be within reach.

Since I have a surefire way to win, might as well earn some fairy crystals along the way and teach this arrogant fellow a lesson.

Yinting was still somewhat disbelieving, after all the other party's level was too low, just an eighth-rank Xian Dan master.

Turning his head to look at Xia Qingying beside him, he asked, “Can he really make the call”

"Of course."

Xia Qingying though unaware of Ye Bufan's intentions, still nodded in affirmation.

"Alright, just wait for me."

Yin Tong's status is far inferior to Qu Heng's. Bai Cao Men is just a small sect, nowhere near as powerful as Xing Yao Zong. It's impossible for him to have so many Xian Jing in his ring.

But in his eyes this was a great opportunity to get rich, he certainly couldn't miss it, and rushed back.

After much persuasion and repeated assurances, he finally borrowed four billion Xianjing from the sect master. Adding to that the one billion he had saved, he managed to gather a total of five billion Xianjing.

Not only that, but he also called over the notary from the competition organizers to make sure they wouldn't back out.

The Dan Wang Grand Competition is jointly hosted by the Five Great Sects and the Alchemist Guild. It does not oppose people placing bets, and has even set up many impartial witnesses.

As long as a gambling agreement is signed under oath, then no one would dare to back out, otherwise they will become the enemy of both the Alchemist Guild and the Five Great Sects.

Yin Tong seemed afraid that Ye Bufan would regret it, so he hurriedly explained the wagering principles clearly and drafted two agreements.

Seeing this guy so eager to send himself money, Ye Bufan's mouth curled into a smile.

Two people signed their names, and the bet was officially made.

"Boy, just wait and see the true power of this young master. You'll learn how you lost."

In-Tong left, holding his own copy of the agreement in his hand. He seemed to have already gotten the other party's fairy crystals and was brimming with joy.

As the day of the competition draws nearer, the viewing platform is packed with people. In the center are the judges: Zhuge Qingyang, Luo Rong, and Wu Zheng.

Behind them were the heads of the Five Great Sects: Lingxiao Sect Master Ni Sa Kong, Tiansheng Sect Master Zu Tai Bai, Xingyao Sect Master Kou Hong Liao, and Qijian Mountain Villa Master Wan Jian Yi.

As the Qinyin's status was special, she also sat beside him. Her complexion was excellent, clearly having firmly established her strength as a fifth-rank Saint Emperor.

There is also a middle-aged beautiful woman, who is the head of the Huanjian Sect, Ji Fenghua.

Five people are nominally assistant referees, but they are largely symbolic in nature. Their primary purpose is to elevate the status of the entire competition.

In the celestial realm, the only event capable of gathering the sect masters of the five major sects is this Dan Wang Grand Tournament. This demonstrates the high importance placed on alchemy by all the major sects.

Ye Bufan's gaze swept over these Saint Emperors one by one, finally landing on Ni Saku, the Sect Master of Lingxiao Sect.

This guy looked like a middle-aged man, plump and white, with a slight smile on his face, looking kind and approachable.

But Ye Bufan was very clear, Lingxiaozong had such great ambitions, this guy absolutely couldn't be as simple as he seemed.

Beside him was the Sect Master Kou Hong of Xingyao Sect, a thin and gloomy man. The two sitting together created a stark contrast.

Ye Bufan and the Lingxiao Sect have completely reached a point of opposition. He also killed a 12th-order Dan Wang from the Xingyao Sect before, so he is paying extra attention to these two people.

At this time, there was a commotion at the entrance, and countless people excitedly looked in that direction.

"The King of Dan has arrived! The esteemed King Dan is here!"

Although all inside were competing alchemists, at this moment they had all become extremely excited.

The reason is simple, it's the ten-crowned king Chu Jiu Yu who came.

In the celestial realm, he is universally recognized as a prodigy of alchemy. Having consecutively won the title of King Alchemist ten times, his reign has spanned millennia without defeat. Such a person is enough to make any immortal alchemist look up in awe.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, a thin old man walked in from outside. He was unremarkable in appearance, lacking the ethereal elegance or the arrogant bearing of a ten-crowned king. He seemed just like an ordinary neighborhood father.

After he appeared, Zhuge Qingyang and the others all jumped down from the viewing platform to greet him.

Ye Bufan secretly sighed, sure enough, the rumors before were not false. Being able to win the position of the Dan King gave him the qualification to be on par with the heads of the five major sects.

Although Chu Jiuyu was still participating this time, due to his special status, he followed Zhuge Qingyang and the others to the viewing platform to take their seats.

After a moment, a majestic voice echoed through the air.

"Silence everyone, the Dan King Competition is now officially starting!".To know this place's food culture is incomparable to Earth; even spices like cumin and chili oil are nonexistent. Combined with Ye Bufan's masterful grilling techniques and top-notch ingredients, the...
