Chapter 4045: The Twelfth-Order Dan Wang Tower
he's considered a big shot, with his entire industry adding up to several trillion. And with the merger of Angel Pharmaceuticals and Yuanhua Group, there's definitely a lot to keep him busy.An Yimo cu...Speaking was Zhuge Qingyang, as the person in charge of this competition, he began to read out the rules of the competition one by one.
Although the Danwang Grand Competition is well-known throughout the Upper Realm, it only takes place once every hundred years. As a result, the corresponding rules must be re-announced to the public.
"Below, the old man will announce the rewards for the Dan Wang Grand Competition. The top fifty winners will all be eligible to enter the Xian Pa Ling Realm."
The top scorer not only gets the title of Dan King but also fifteen Immortal Spirit Herbs, the rewards from the Five Great Sects…
Ye Bufan wasn't really interested in the rules before, he was getting drowsy listening to them. Now that he heard about the rewards, his eyes lit up instantly.
To encourage the participating alchemists, Zhuge Qingyang did not stop at hinting but read out the rewards one by one.
"The Starry Firmament Sect awards three stalks of Emerald Moss, the Lingxiao Sect awards three roots of Earth Dragon Tendrils, the Phantom Sword Sect awards three blossoms of Cloud Mist Orchid, the Qinjian Mountain Villa awards three plants of Crimson Light Grass, and the Tiansheng Gate awards three Spirit-Concentrating Fruits."
As soon as the words left his lips, the previously silent venue erupted in a frenzy.
Those who come to compete are all alchemists. Everyone values the Spirit Herb most, and the five major sects take out these herbs, any one of them is a top product among the twelfth order, completely can be called a priceless treasure.
Even Mu Ji, who had been listening with a dull expression throughout, perked up at the end. He originally had three Shennong Fruit, which could raise his spiritual power by three levels in succession.
Just now, one was taken. The remaining two were extorted by Ye Bufan.
And now three more were offered to me, and all four remaining types of Xianlingcao were also top grade. Such a good opportunity couldn't be missed under any circumstances.
"Ye Bufan was even more excited, "These five major sects are really generous!"
Xia Qingying said: "This is normal, after all, it represents the face of the five major sects. Taking out something too shabby would make them the laughingstock."
These things are not wasteful either, as each sect has incredibly skilled alchemists.
If one could seize the throne of the Dan King, it would be like getting back all the treasures one had given away multiplied many times over.
If it was taken by another Dan King, then it would also be an expression of goodwill. In the future, it would be convenient to ask someone to help refine pills.
Ye Bufan nodded, in his eyes these Xianling grasses were already his.
"Alright, that's all I have to say. Now the competition officially begins! The first round is herbal identification. Please, Twelve Stages Dan King Tower!"
After finishing his words, he cast a spell. A booming sound erupted from the center of the square, followed by a giant tower rising from the ground and appearing before everyone.
It's said to be a tower, but it's quite different from the traditional kind. Although it has the shape of a tower, it's not enclosed. Each level is completely open to the outside.
The overall shape is conical, narrowing as it goes upwards, with a total of twelve layers.
The entire tower emanated a heavy sense of desolation, clearly an antique.
Xia Qingying appeared composed. Having participated in the Dan Wang Competition before, she was no stranger to this tower.
Ye Bufan felt very novel, this was his first time participating in the Dan Wang Competition. He didn't know the rules and format of the competition.
When the twelve-story Dan Wang Tower had completely stabilized, Zhuge Qingyang shouted loudly: “Alright, all participating Immortal Alchemists enter the tower with your tokens.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the alchemists who had been waiting nearby rushed into the tower and sat down on the first floor.
Including Chu Jiuyu on the management platform also leaped down, like an ordinary celestial alchemist, he chose an ordinary position and sat down.
Ye Bufan followed Xia Qingying's side, learning from her example. After entering the first layer, he inserted the token in his hand into the recessed area at the front.
Then, the formation activated, and a screen-sized light curtain appeared before their eyes. However, it was completely empty, with no images whatsoever.
"This formation is truly well-crafted."
Ye Bufan examined it carefully and found that the formation was completely embedded in the Danwang Pagoda, crafted with great ingenuity.
Then I glanced at the people next to me, and they were doing the same thing. They all had a light curtain in front of them.
This gave him a strange feeling, as if he had been back on Earth and was taking an exam on a computer screen again.
The base of this tower is also large enough to accommodate over a thousand Xian Dan Masters, but it's still spacious and comfortable.
Once these alchemists were in place, someone immediately stepped forward and gave each of them a blank jade slip.
Then, the clear voice echoed through the field once more: "The first test is to identify Xianling herbs. You will have ten breaths of time to identify one hundred kinds of herbs and inscribe the names you record onto jade slips."
"By then, only the top 100 will remain, everyone else will be eliminated..."
Rule reading complete, Ye Bufan finally understood why the registration conditions were set so high, at least requiring a level eight immortal alchemist.
Under this assessment situation, being at a low level is completely useless and you will be eliminated in the first round.
"Get everything ready, three, two, one, start!"
Zhuge Qingyang gave an order, and cast a spell. Immediately, a herb appeared on the blank screen.
I have to say, this image of the formation is extremely clear. The roots, stems, and leaves of the herbs are all clearly visible, but some people let out a sigh.
It is clearly no ordinary herb; some people have never even seen it.
And before these people could recover, a flash of light appeared before their eyes, the image of the first kind of herb disappeared, and the image of the second kind appeared.
Xia Qingying's expression was serious. She identified the herbs on one hand and carefully inscribed the results onto a jade slip with the other.
For Ye Bufan, this level posed no difficulty whatsoever. The two inheritances of the Ancient Medical Sect in recognizing these spirit herbs were as easy as turning his hand over.
And his goal was the position of King of Dan, so naturally he held nothing back, engraving all the correct answers onto the jade slip.
Time flies, and after about a dozen breaths, all one hundred kinds of herbs were displayed.
The light curtain vanished, and in its place appeared a shimmering mass of light and shadow—the assessment formation.
Ye Bufan was once again shocked by the clever design of the Twelfth-Order Dan Wang Tower, and then placed the jade slip in his hand into the formation.
Others do the same, submitting their assessed opinions into the evaluation array.
A few people hesitated, perhaps not recognizing many of the medicinal herbs and wanting to think about it some more.
Before they could react, they were enveloped by a white light and thrown out of the Danwang Tower.
Ye Bufan looked at the shimmering formation before him, thinking about how long it would take to produce results.
Immediately, a nearby alchemist flew out, followed by another, and then another...
In the blink of an eye, over a thousand participating alchemists were reduced to a hundred, with the rest eliminated.
Then another light curtain appeared at the top of the tower, with a list of one hundred people appearing on it one by one.
"Last session, King Chu Jiuyu identified one hundred kinds of pills, Baodanmen Ye Bufan identified one hundred kinds of pills, and the scattered cultivator Mu Ji identified one hundred kinds of pills…"
It has to be said, the Xian Dan Shi who participated in the Dan Fang Grand Competition were truly a gathering of talents. Over a dozen people were able to correctly identify all one hundred Xian Ling Cao, including Hua Qiqi and Xie Hongying from the Alchemist's Guild.
The remaining ninety-nine, ninety-eight, and so on, decreasing by one each time. The hundredth place is ninety-five.cal Dao in Zhongtian Domain.And now, such a group of ten people being subdued and kneeling to accept teachings from a young man is simply unimaginable.Ye Bufan ignored these people completely. He was...
