Chapter 1067: Four Elders
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

In the competition between the five Alchemy Masters, the strongest person could decide the fate of the remaining Ancient Hundred Spirit Pill.

The Ancient Hundred Spirit Pill was very precious to anyone, especially those below the Supreme Emperor realm.

This was because other than young geniuses, it was very difficult for other Daoyuan realm experts to advance. Many people often advanced to the Daoyuan realm early, but they needed to wait a hundred years, or even two to three hundred years, before they could advance a realm!

Cultivating one’s own Dao at the Daoyuan realm had too high a requirement for comprehension. Advancing was too difficult.

However, the Ancient Hundred Spirit Pill could quickly perfect one’s Dao and allow a Daoyuan realm expert to take a step forward.

Moreover, just by looking at the people at the Luo family banquet, there were more than thirty Daoyuan realm experts. Most of them were old men who had been stuck at the Daoyuan realm for many years and could not advance. From this, one could tell how precious the Ancient Hundred Spirit Pill was!

As for Ye Chen, Huang Zhantian, and the others, they had extremely high comprehension abilities, so they had no problem perfecting their Daos and reaching the Supreme Emperor realm. All they needed was sufficient time and resources. However, there were only a dozen of such people in the Kunlun Mountains every hundred years.

“My junior brother is interested in participating in the Alchemy Conference.”

“I know that he is talented in alchemy, so I’ll have to trouble you, Master Luo, to help him out,” Ye Chen said nonchalantly.

Then, he ate with everyone. All kinds of delicacies, such as abalone, ginseng, wings, and belly, were served throughout the meal. There were also cold dishes made of precious spirit herbs. These were the real precious dishes. Every cold dish was made using spirit herbs that were hundreds of years old.

On the Luo family’s side, a banquet was being held happily, while on the other side, the Cui family was completely enraged!

In the hall of the Cui Family, Cui Yuan glanced at the experts in front of him with a sorrowful face.

This time, the Cui Family had suffered a great loss. On the surface, the Cui Family was no longer as powerful as the Luo family.

“Patriarch, an elder has already come out of seclusion!”

“Is it really time to summon all of the elders?” a third-level Daoyuan realm guardian asked.

“Yes!” Cui Yuan let out a long sigh and said, “We’ve lost nearly half of our family’s experts. We have no choice but to summon them!”

These elders were all Supreme Emperor realm experts who had survived after joining the Blood Spirit Clan!

Even when the Cui Clan’s young master was killed by Ye Chen, the Cui Clan did not dare to use this force casually. However, the Cui family was now facing a crisis, so if he did not summon them, the family would be doomed!

They would definitely turn the situation around!

Through the Huang family, the Cui Family also surrendered to the six Blood Spirit Clan members in the Blood Spirit Secret Realm. Originally, according to the quota allocation, they had to hand over two Supreme Emperor realm experts for the Blood Spirit Clan to kill every hundred years. This also led to the situation where there were very few Supreme Emperor realm experts in their family.

However, after joining the Blood Spirit Clan, they would be exempted once every 300 years, and protect two of the Supreme Realm experts they had nurtured with that exemption.

The Cui family had been established for 900 years. When they were 300 years old, they joined the Blood Spirit Clan.

This was why they had managed to keep four Supreme Emperor realm experts alive, each of which had reached the fourth level of the Supreme Emperor realm.

They might not be considered powerful in the major families, but they were considered top-notch in Danxu Town!

In order to prevent outsiders from knowing that the Cui family had sided with the Blood Spirit Clan, especially the Alchemy Masters, many years ago, the Cui family had sent these four Supreme Emperor realm experts to hide in seclusion, and they would only take action when the family was in danger!

Cui Yuan let out a long sigh. Even when his son was killed, he had never thought of asking these hidden Supreme Emperor realm elders to help him. However, things had taken a turn for the worst, and he had no choice but to seek their help now.

“Patriarch! The situation is not good!”

A guardian rushed in hurriedly.

“What’s the matter?” Cui Yuan’s eyes narrowed as he asked coldly.

The guardian hurriedly knelt down. “Master, the Luo family’s forces have already started to attack our properties and businesses.”

Bang!

“Luo Wuya!” Cui Yuan slammed the table. “Do you think you can do whatever you please just because Ye Shitian is backing you?!”

“Ye Shitian! I want you dead!”

While Cui Yuan was in a rage, an invincible aura shook the entire room, and the four experts of the Cui Family who had been cultivating in seclusion appeared!

Rumble!

The wall behind Cui Yuan was broken, and violent shockwaves swept out from inside the room. Amidst the smoke and dust, four figures were faintly discernible.

“Are you the current head of the family?”

“What’s your name?”

A group of four people walked in from outside the door. All of them had ancient auras flowing around their bodies. Their mottled faces made it impossible to tell how old they were. They were dressed in black robes and looked like ghosts that had come out of the Netherworld. Many Daoyuan realm experts felt their hair stand on end!

Of the four elders, one carried a sword on his back, one held a spear, and two had a huge cauldron floating behind them. Their auras were terrifying, like demon kings!

They were the four Supreme Emperor realm experts that the Cui family had accumulated over the past hundreds of years.

“Greetings, elders. I am the current family head, Cui Yuan!”

“Elders, our Cui family is in danger. A young expert named Ye Shitian came to Danxu Town and defeated a top expert of the Cui family with a few punches. Not only that, half of our forces were destroyed!”

“Therefore, I would like to ask the four elders to make a move. We must kill this piece of trash!”

The hook-nosed elder with a sword on his back stepped forward. He was the leader of the four, Cui Ming!

“Tell us the details,” he said.

“Yes, Elder!”

How could Cui Yuan dare to say no? He recounted everything that had happened today in detail.

After saying that, the four elders sat on their chairs. Their dignified gazes made the surrounding experts of the Cui family feel uncomfortable, as if they were being stared at by four ghosts.

Elder Cui Ming pondered for a long time. He glanced at the family head and the elders before him and asked, “You said that the Alchemy Conference is about to be held?” Alchemy Master Xingtian and the others are all in the midst of planning?”

“Yes!” Cui Yuan nodded.

“I’ll kill Ye Shitian after the Alchemy Conference. The Alchemy Conference is jointly held by the five Alchemy Masters and the five families,” Cui Ming said with a deep gaze, “We cannot afford a large-scale battle between Supreme Emperor realm experts before the conference!”

“Even if we attack the Luo family together now, Alchemy Master Ling Yi and the others will definitely retaliate!”

“At that time, it will either evolve into a battle between us and the five Alchemy Masters! Alchemy Master Xingtian should still be stuck at the early stage of the Supreme Emperor realm, but his connections are extremely wide. We can’t offend him!”
