Alchemy Sovereign Against the Heaven-Chapter 50 - Are You a Rank 2 Alchemist
50: Chapter 50 Are You a Rank 2 Alchemist?
50 -50 Are You a Rank 2 Alchemist?
Could it be fake?
The servant clearly could not believe it.
After all, a young Second Grade Alchemist seemed impossible; he had been in the Alchemy Pavilion for quite a while, and never had he seen anyone of this age achieve the status of a Second Grade Pill Master.
Even Liang Yuqiu, who just went up to the second floor, was only preparing to take the Second Grade Alchemist assessment.
Moreover, the boy in front of him appeared to be a few years younger than Liang Yuqiu.
Liang Yuqiu was not only a genius of the Liang Family but also a disciple of a mysterious master in the Alchemist Alliance.
That was why she had such Alchemy Dao skill.
The servant never thought there could be someone with talent surpassing Liang Yuqiu.
Upon carefully checking the guest elder credential, the servant grew more surprised, for the jade token was no different from others.
This was a genuine guest elder jade token!
“Master, you may go up!” Astonished, the servant dared not speak further, returned the jade token to Mo Wangchen with both hands, and adopted a more respectful tone.
Mo Wangchen nodded and then took back the jade token before stepping toward the staircase leading to the second floor.
Upon reaching the second floor, he looked around and found the layout almost identical to the first floor, but with noticeably fewer people—only around a dozen.
“Esteemed customer, is there any pill you wish to purchase?” The customers who reached the second floor were almost all guests or Alchemists of the Alchemy Pavilion, qualifying them to enter.
Hence, everyone arriving there would be personally received by a servant.
“Are there any herbs?” Mo Wangchen glanced at the round-faced servant approaching him, mildly surprised.
The Alchemy Pavilion truly was remarkable; this servant’s cultivation was at least at the fifth level of the Vein Condensation Realm.
That kind of cultivation, in Fangtian City, would be considered significant.
Herbs?
The round-faced servant was momentarily stunned by Mo Wangchen’s words, internally shocked.
Could he be an Alchemist?
Although puzzled, he refrained from asking and nodded, leading Mo Wangchen to the shelf storing herbs.
“These are all the herbs on the second floor.
Which ones does the esteemed customer need?”
Without speaking, Mo Wangchen handed over a paper with the materials for a Nine Apertures Spirit Pill written on it.
“I need the herbs listed here.
See if you have them.”
“Alright!” The servant solemnly received the paper, then had Mo Wangchen sit and wait patiently while he began searching for the herbs listed.
While the servant searched, Mo Wangchen glanced around.
His gaze suddenly stopped at the stairway to the third floor, where he spotted Liang Yuqiu and an elderly man ascending.
“Esteemed customer, I found two types of herbs from your list!” A short time later, the servant returned, pointing to two herb names on the paper.
“Calculate how many gold coins are needed.” Mo Wangchen nodded.
These two herbs weren’t the main ingredients for the Nine Apertures Spirit Pill, just supplementary ones.
Finding them here was not surprising, and their price shouldn’t be as extravagant as Green Darkness Grass.
“Altogether, it’s two thousand four hundred gold coins!” The servant had evidently already checked the prices and smiled.
Mo Wangchen took out the hundred thousand gold coins given by Zhang Hao earlier, and then extracted two thousand four hundred coins, handing them to the servant for processing at the counter.
When the servant returned, he carried a crystal chip about half the size of a palm.
After brushing the chip over the box containing the herbs, the original forbidden seal disappeared, and the servant packaged the herbs before handing them to Mo Wangchen.
“Is there any herb sold on the third floor?” After storing the herbs in his storage ring, Mo Wangchen inquired of the servant.
The servant nodded, “There are, and they’re more advanced than those here, but…”
“But what?” Mo Wangchen was taken aback.
“The third floor is not open to the public.
Only masters of the Alchemist Alliance, and those above Second Grade, can go up.” As he spoke, the servant couldn’t help but glance over Mo Wangchen.
“Above Second Grade?” Mo Wangchen furrowed his brow and responded, “I just saw Liang Yuqiu walking up to the third floor.
Isn’t she only a First Grade Alchemist?”
“Master Liang?” The servant paused, then smiled, “Master Liang has a special status.
Although she’s only a First Grade Alchemist, her Master of Alchemy Dao holds a high position in the Alchemist Alliance, so…”
Mo Wangchen understood; it seemed Liang Yuqiu’s mentor was a prominent figure in the Alchemist Alliance.
“Take me up there.” Mo Wangchen suddenly said.
“But…”
The servant was taken aback.
He had clearly stated that the third floor was not open to the public; only Second Grade Alchemists from the Alchemist Alliance could enter.
Yet, before he could say anything further, Mo Wangchen already presented the guest elder identifications.
Naturally, the round-faced servant, much like the one encountered downstairs, was instantly astonished upon seeing the credentials.
Mo Wangchen paid it no mind and proceeded ahead, prompting the servant to quickly glance at the jade token in his hand before following closely.
Upon reaching the third floor, Mo Wangchen found almost no one there.
Led by the servant, they reached the shelf storing herbs.
Soon, with a brief wait, the servant found two more herbs for the Nine Apertures Spirit Pill, though they were also supplementary.
The price was around three thousand gold coins.
After settling the transaction, Mo Wangchen intended to leave.
However, as he headed toward the stairway, unexpectedly, Liang Yuqiu descended from the fourth floor.
Both caught sight of each other, looking momentarily startled.
“What are you doing here?” Liang Yuqiu was the first to speak, with a puzzled look.
Wasn’t this third floor only accessible to Second Grade Alchemists from the Alchemist Alliance?
Uh!
Upon hearing her question, Mo Wangchen was taken aback, then inwardly chuckled bitterly.
He had just told her he was a First Grade Alchemist; who would have thought they’d cross paths.
“Couldn’t find herbs downstairs, so I came up to check…” Mo Wangchen gave no direct answer, merely smiled.
“You’re a Second Grade Alchemist?” Liang Yuqiu’s face showed surprise, finding it hard to believe.
For she noticed as well, Mo Wangchen seemed a few years younger than her, yet his presence there undoubtedly meant he was an Alchemist of Second Grade or higher in the Alchemist Alliance!
How could that be possible?
Even with her Master’s guidance, she was merely a First Grade Alchemist, and her Master’s status within the Alchemist Alliance was no small thing.
She herself was still a First Grade Alchemist; how could Mo Wangchen already be a Second Grade Alchemist?
