Chapter 220: The Three Skills of Alchemy
At the Dan residence.
The Dan family has an elder's position in the Dan Tower, so naturally, they can get a residence in the inner city of Dan.
The elders of the Dan Tower can freely choose their residence in the city. For example, Xiao Ze chose the elder's tower.
The elders of the Dan family, due to their family, usually choose a larger and more suitable residence for living in a group.
Dan Xuan entered with an invitation in hand and a frown on his face.
"Cousin?" asked Dan Chen, seeing Dan Xuan's expression, a little confused.
"See for yourself," said Dan Xuan, handing over the invitation.
After reading it, Dan Chen showed a smile on her face. "It's an invitation to the alchemist conference organized by Xiao Ze!"
"Don't get excited too soon. Although I don't know why Xiao Ze can organize the alchemist conference, it's usually organized by the three presidents."
"That Xiao Ze, a newly promoted master alchemist, is the organizer, probably won't please many of the old master alchemists."
After hearing Dan Xuan's explanation, Dan Chen understood. "Do you mean Xiao Ze might be troubled by the other elders?"
Seeing Dan Xuan nod, Dan Chen showed a worried expression.
Since her trip to Yin Gu, Dan Chen had developed a great appreciation for Xiao Ze, and even still had the fire mark that Xiao Ze had left her.
"Then, what should we do? Can we ask aunt for help...?"
Dan Chen said nervously. The elder of the Dan family was her aunt.
Dan Xuan shook his head. His cousin had extraordinary talent for alchemy, but didn't understand much about human relations.
"The invitation was sent by Elder Liu Tian, so this is already decided. It can't be changed. We can only rely on Xiao Ze to handle those old master alchemists."
"If you're really worried, come with me to the alchemist conference."
Seeing that Dan Chen was still worried, Dan Xuan couldn't help but suggest it.
Dan Chen quickly nodded, making Dan Xuan laugh. His cousin, who was always focused on alchemy, was now worried about someone else.
Dan Xuan didn't see it as a bad thing. After all, the talent and potential Xiao Ze had shown made him think of bringing them together.
Besides, it seemed that Xiao Ze didn't have anyone special around him, except for the little servant girl who always accompanied him.
On the other side, at the Cao family residence, Cao Ying came out of her room, stretching her muscles with grace and charm, with a movement that could fascinate any man.
Cao Ying smiled as she noticed that today, that annoying Song Qing hadn't come to bother her.
Suddenly, she saw Cao Xiu with an invitation in his hand.
"Brother Cao Xiu, another alchemist conference? Is it organized by my master?"
Cao Xiu, upon hearing her, quickly approached.
Cao Ying, with her talent and being Xuan Kong Zi's disciple, had a high position in the Cao family, so even he had to treat her with care.
"No, this time it's organized by the new master alchemist, Xiao Ze."
Cao Xiu handed over the invitation, and Cao Ying's smile froze. She took the invitation and, after checking it, frowned, deep in thought.
"Do you know why? Why is Xiao Ze organizing it this time?"
"I don't fully understand, but according to what the master said, it probably has the support of at least one president."
Cao Ying, worried, said, "Even with the support of a president, his current level of alchemy might not be enough to convince everyone."
"Maybe, but with Xiao Ze's talent, he might surprise us."
Cao Ying bit her lip, recalling her interactions with Xiao Ze. He didn't seem like someone reckless, so he must have something in mind.
"Could it be my master's idea?"
Cao Ying pondered, still doubtful, as she paced around her room. "Should I ask my master about this? It seems like my master thinks highly of Xiao Ze, he wouldn't harm him, right?"
Suddenly, Cao Ying stopped, surprised by her own thoughts. "Why do I care so much?"
"Yes, I am too worried about him..."
Cao Ying reflected on the few times she had seen Xiao Ze, which were rare.
Most of the time she had heard about his talent or seen him from afar accomplishing feats.
But she couldn't deny that Xiao Ze had left a deep impression on her.
Since she heard that Xiao Ze became the youngest elder of the Dan Tower, she had felt a mix of challenge and admiration.
She, who had always grown up under the aura of being a genius, naturally wanted to compete with him.
Until recently, Xiao Ze became a master alchemist, creating an insurmountable gap that transformed her challenge into respect.
"Well, I'll stop thinking and ask my master directly."
Cao Ying left, heading to the black tower.
In the elder's tower.
Xiao Ze showed an expression of surprise. Perhaps due to the pressure of the alchemy conference, he had reorganized his skills, obtaining surprising results.
Xiao Ze had prepared three skills for the conference.
The first was unconventional alchemy, represented by blood alchemy.
The second was magical beast alchemy, with the "Hun Yuan Pill" as an example.
The third was a summary of his own alchemy.
Xiao Ze had begun his learning with Xiao Yan's alchemy, then practiced hard on his own, experimenting with various techniques.
Thanks to the system's feedback, his knowledge was vast and complete.
Gradually, his alchemy became a blend of various techniques, without being limited to one school.
"After this reorganization, it seems I have the ability to unify everything..."
If other alchemists heard him, they would surely call him arrogant. Alchemy is vast, and no one would dare say they master all techniques.
However, Xiao Ze, under the influence of multiple factors, really seemed to have that possibility. At least, he had managed to unify from level one to advanced level seven.
Although he hadn't reached the eighth and ninth levels, it was a considerable achievement.
This meant that from now on, alchemists on the continent could be systematically trained, without relying on individual master-to-student teaching.
"I can imagine the controversy this will cause."
Xiao Ze, excited, thought that now, being a master alchemist, he had the ability to establish his own school. Why not be bold and found a universal school on the continent?
