Cultivation Pet Shop

137 Chapter 137



"Alchemy contest?" The elders all said at the same time.

They were confused, why would the envoy suddenly think to hold an alchemy contest?

The Lord Envoy ignored them as he continued to say, "For now, we don\'t know what forces are backing that pet shop, so we can\'t make a rash move. If this starts a war in the upper realm, your entire Alchemy Tower might be sacrificed to avoid that. So for now, what we need to do is to bait them out and see who they are, only then can we make a move. It\'s clear that they want to set up their shop here, so there\'s nothing better to advertise that shop with than an alchemy contest. There is no doubt that they will send someone to compete and this will let me see their techniques, so I can see which force they belong to."

Hearing this, the elders began nodding their heads showing that they agreed with the envoy.

Then the envoy added, "I\'ve also heard that there was a person who appeared in this city who could refine 100% purity pills. While that isn\'t that strange in the upper realm among the geniuses, this person can be considered quite the talent. There is no doubt that he will have his own pride and once he is drawn in by this contest, I\'ll reveal myself and draw him to our Alchemy King Hall. There is no way that a genius like them would be satisfied with being the big fish in a small pond."

This was a perfect plan of killing two birds with one stone.

If he were to bring a genius like this back to the Alchemy King Hall, there was no doubt that the Alchemy King Hall would greatly reward him for this.

Moreover, the genius would without a doubt become an important figure in the Alchemy King Hall in the future. As the one who brought him to the upper realm, he definitely wouldn\'t forget this envoy.

Then the envoy revealed a crude smile as he said, "As for the daughter of the previous Alchemy Master, I\'ll bring her back with me to the upper realm. I heard that she\'s quite the beauty, there\' no doubt that she will make a fine toy."

At this, the elders suddenly knit their brows again.

While they were on different sides, when Alchemy Master Jun was in charge of the Alchemy Tower, it had been a golden time for them. They all felt admiration for this talented man.

Moreover, that girl was still not even ten years old yet and the envoy wanted to do that to her…

While they were inwardly disgusted by this envoy, they couldn\'t say a thing since he was the envoy sent from the upper realm.

When the envoy was finished with his imagination, he turned back to the elders and said, "I need you all to do this…"

The next day, the Alchemy Tower had suddenly made an announcement that shocked all of Green Wood City.

The Alchemy Tower had announced that they would be hosting a tournament for alchemists for "the prosperity of future growth" and to find talents.

But the shocking part wasn\'t that.

The shocking part was that they were offering a Heaven Grade Pill, the Tribulation Pill.

When one broke through to the Legendary Realm, it meant facing a heavenly tribulation where one was struck by nine bolts of lightning. Each one was stronger than the last and only by enduring all nine bolts could one break through to the Legendary Realm.

This Tribulation Pill was a special pill that could block one of those bolts of lightning for the one breaking into the Legendary Realm. Even though it could only be used once, which meant that it would only block a single bolt, one could use it to block the most powerful bolt of lightning for them. This greatly reduced the difficulty of the tribulation.

But because of how hard it was to refine this Tribulation Pill, there weren\'t many found in this world. Even the ingredients for this pill were very rare to find.

The fact that the Alchemy Tower was willing to take out this treasure for just a tournament meant that they were serious, or they had some special motive.

But as for what that reason was, no one was certain.

However, the offer of the Tribulation Pill was definitely a great enticement.

For those experts that were close to the Legendary, they needed this Tribulation Pill since it was a chance for them to break through to the Legendary Realm.

For those that weren\'t close to the Legendary Realm, this Tribulation Pill didn\'t hold any less enticement to them. If they could win this pill, given how rare it was, they would be able to make a fortune that they could never spend in their entire life if they auctioned it.

So there were many people who signed up for the tournament and in just a single day, there were over a hundred thousand entrants.

On the day that the tournament was announced, Elder Hua and Elder Gu had immediately rushed over to Lin Fan\'s store since they knew that this was the move from the Alchemy Tower they were waiting for.

Elder Hua was the first to ask, "Owner Lin, what do you think the Alchemy Tower is planning?"

Lin Fan was surprised at first to hear this news, but then he fell into thought.

After a while, he said, "If my guesses are correct, they are probably trying to use this tournament to draw out the power that is behind me. Without knowing who they are facing, if they were to suddenly make a move, it might even cause trouble for them in the upper realm. That should be the only reason why they are willing to invest this much. As for the other reasons, I might not have an idea, but I do know someone who does."

Lin Fan summoned out Brainy.

During this time, Brainy had been on the verge of a breakthrough, so Lin Fan hadn\'t called it out during this time to let it focus on that. But Brainy had just finished its breakthrough and had reached an even greater level of power.

Everyone was surprised to see Brainy appear, but the kids immediately gushed over how cute Brainy was. They came forward to pet it, but how could the proud Brainy let them do that?

Brainy easily avoided them and used its vines to keep the kids at bay, causing them to have sad looks on their faces.

When that was over, Lin Fan explained the situation to Brainy and it fell into thought for a bit before writing, "This should be more than just luring out the forces behind our shop. It should also be a plot targeting \'Fan Lin\'."

Lin Fan was taken aback by this as he said, "What do you mean a plot targeting Fan Lin? What does he have to do with this?"

Brainy wrote, "Fan Lin is a mysterious lower realm alchemist who can refine 100% purity pills and is known to be on Elder Hua\'s side. This kind of talent is something that even the big factions would want, so of course the faction behind the Alchemy Tower is also interested. The envoy they sent must want to bring Fan Lin to the upper realm, so he wants to make use of this tournament to draw Fan Lin out and give him a chance to go to the upper realm. The envoy is very confident since this is a choice between staying in the lower realm or going to the upper realm. A normal person would definitely choose the latter."

Lin Fan stroked his chin for a bit before saying, "That is true, but we can use this to our advantage."

Brainy wrote, "Are you thinking what I\'m thinking?"

Lin Fan revealed a smile and gave a nod, but he didn\'t say anything else.

At first the two elders were surprised by how intelligent Brainy was, but they quickly adapted since they knew that there were all kinds of different and strange beasts in this world. It was normal that there would be a pet as intelligent as Brainy.

But they couldn\'t make sense of the conversation between Lin Fan and Brainy.

What did they mean by they could use this to their advantage?

Elder Hua couldn\'t help asking, "Owner Lin, can you tell us what you are planning to do? Isn\'t this a very bad situation?"

Lin Fan just smiled and said, "No, this situation is very good. They are practically playing into our hands. As long as we follow my plan, it\'ll be easy for us to take care of them."

Elder Hua then asked, "What is your plan then?"

Lin Fan just smiled and said, "You\'ll see, but you can be sure that it will definitely be a plan that will shock you. As for them, well they\'ll wish they never crossed me."

Elder Hua and Elder Gu both felt chills run down their spines at this smile.

They couldn\'t help wondering, did they make the right choice trusting Lin Fan or did they walk into the mouth of the lion?
