Cultivator With Modern AI

586 Inter-Sect Competition V

Xia Tian couldn't help but laugh wryly after hearing Feng Xian'er's comment. "At first, I never thought that I would meet Lifen's reincarnation in Yinyue form. My only thought at that time was to become strong as soon as possible, and dual cultivation was the only way."

"En, I understand your feelings. You, who used to be one of the strongest immortals, suddenly reincarnated into a crippled person with intact memories; it must make you feel a very heavy pressure." Feng Xian'er spoke with a nod of understanding.

She completely understood Xia Tian's feelings; her own father was also one of the most powerful cultivators in the past, but her father's mentality wasn't as strong as his. After his cultivation was crippled by a stronger opponent and he became a good-for-nothing, he turned extremely evil and always tortured her, even to the point of losing her voice.

*Crack*

"Why did you come here?" Feng Xian'er turned her head and asked Qin Qing, who had just entered their room. "Aren't you busy in the forging competition?"

"Busy? How can I be busy with a meaningless competition?" Qin Qing answered as she laughed bitterly. "Because of Xian Tian's participation in the competition, many young blacksmiths chose to withdraw from the competition, and the participants became very few."

Feng Xian'er laughed at Qin Qing's words. "Fortunately, the alchemy competition this time is still interesting, with talents like Dugu Yan and Yan Ning. Even though the first two matches were all won by Tian without any major obstacles, they are still not discouraged."

"The mentality of those alchemists is truly extraordinary when compared to those young blacksmiths; they only have to face me, but they have all given up." Xia Tian then asked Qin Qing. "Has Han Shuo ever told you about how he became a blacksmith?"

Qin Qing shook her head. "Master never said anything about his early journey, so I don't know anything about it."

Xia Tian laughed at that, and then he mocked her. "No wonder your mentality is also very weak; if Han Shuo finds out that you still can't make Heaven Grade weapons and armor smoothly by now, I'm sure he will regret choosing you as his disciple."

Qin Qing opened her mouth, wanting to refute him, but no words came out of it.

"Han Shuo's being a famous blacksmith was not easy; he was born with a very small physique and also came from a poor family. When he said that he wanted to become a blacksmith in the sect, everyone laughed and ridiculed him." Xia Tia looked at Qin Qing seriously before asking. "But do you know what he did to overcome and change that?"

Qin Qing shook her head at him, and Feng Xian'er looked at him with a curious look.

Xia Tian then continued. "While all the sect disciples were sleeping soundly, Han Shuo practiced swinging his hammer hundreds of times every night, and he practiced like any other sect disciple in the morning. At first, he practiced using a normal hammer, and then he practiced using a hammer that weighed many times over. Even though his body was always in pain and his arms had also been broken several times, he never gave up on his dream of becoming a blacksmith, and it lasted several years."

Xia Tian then recounted Han Shuo's journey after his strenuous trainings, Qin Qing felt between disbelief and admiration for her master. She felt that if she were in her master's position, then she would most likely give up from the start.

That also made her disappointed with herself; Qin Qing had always been considered the best blacksmith in the southern continent. But after hearing the story about her master, it made her realize that she was too proud of her forging ability.

Three hours later, Yan Jin had summoned all the alchemy competition participants to gather in the competition arena, and he immediately explained to them the theme of the third competition.

In the final match, the participants were given the freedom by Yan Jin to concoct the pills they wanted, and they could also use their alchemy furnaces.

"Hey, look at that guy; he still hasn't taken out his alchemy furnace."

"Maybe he doesn't have a good furnace."

"Could he have given up now?"

The audience started whispering after seeing that Xia Tian still hadn't taken out his alchemy furnace, even though the other participants had already started processing their herbs.

'Tch! Annoying! That damn Yan Jin deliberately changed this match to smooth out their victory.' Xia Tian inwardly muttered.

[So what are you going to do now, Master? Are you going to use the Shennong furnace? Because that's your only furnace.]

'Hmm, no need to use it, and I'll use that one.'

[Oh? Are you sure you want to use that?]

'There is no other choice, Alice.'

[Alright then, I'll help you if your energy isn't enough to use that.]

'Okay.'

"Hahaha!" Dugu Zhong laughed loudly, seeing that Xia Tian had not done anything yet, and then he mocked Feng Xian'er and the others, who had always supported him from the start. "Looks like the person you guys are proud of is about to give up; he doesn't even have an alchemy furnace! Hahaha."

However, Fan Youling and the others were unfazed by his ridicule.

"Heh, you are too early to be happy, Old Man Dugu. The match has just begun; he will definitely open your eyes later." Fan Youling casually spoke.

"What can he do without an alchemy furnace?" Dugu Zhong snorted.

Suddenly, all of them could feel the energy change within Xia Tian. Feng Xian'er smiled faintly and spoke to him. "Old Man Dugu, please open your eyes and take a good look; there is no better alchemist than Xia Tian in this Seven Star World."

Dugu Zhong frowned and turned his head towards the competition area, and he felt a considerable energy fluctuation from within Xia Tian's body. 'What the hell? His cultivation is only at the 6th Stage Earth Origin Realm, but how come his energy is so great?'

.

.

"What's that?"

"How could he make an alchemy furnace out of energy?"

"Hey look, he's starting to process the ingredients!"

"Wow, that's so beautiful! We can see the process with the naked eye."

.

.

Yan Jin raised his eyebrows when he saw Xia Tian's energy furnace. 'How did he do that? I've never even seen such a technique!'

Dugu Yan, Yan Ning, and other participants were shocked by Xia Tian's actions. Since the beginning, they had never felt any energy fluctuations from Xia Tian's body, but his energy fluctuations were enormous, and he even used an alchemy furnace made of energy.

'Sigh, Mengxin is indeed right; I can never beat her husband, and the difference in our abilities is too great.' Dugu Yan inwardly muttered.

Meng Hao gave Xia Tian a hostile look; he was really furious and wanted to attack him, so he decided to send a sound transmission to several people. 'Humph! Even if I lose this competition, I will definitely teach you a lesson you will never forget!'

[Haha, the reaction of these mortals is really funny.]

'That's because they don't know about this technique; it's a technique specially created by Xiao'er, and it has also become her flagship technique. However, using this technique with my current cultivation is really draining my energy.'

[Heh, you have me, Master.]

With Alice's help, Xia Tian's energy barely decreased. After a while, he had finished processing all his herbs, and he had finished processing them faster than the participants who started earlier than him.

'Insane! How can he process them that quickly? Yan Ning muttered as she stole glances at Xia Tian.

After seeing that Xia Tian had finished all of his herbs, Dugu Yan sighed heavily, and Lan Yin couldn't help but shake her head and mutter to herself. 'He really is a monster!'

After all the herbs were finished, Xia Tian then put them all at once into his energy furnace. Even so, all the essences of the herbs didn't mix right away, and he controlled everything using his energy.

"Please pay attention; I will show you guys the true path of the alchemist!" Xia Tian spoke quietly, but everyone in the competition arena could hear his words.

Xia Tian then began to combine the essences one by one according to the order, and everyone present could see the beauty as the herb essences began to mix together. It didn't take long for them to mix perfectly into one, and it slowly began to crystallize into a pill.

Those people were truly mesmerized by the beauty of the pill-making process, for this was the first time anyone had been able to do such a thing in the Seven Star World.

'His talent is truly terrifying! If he wasn't Zhu Yuhe's son-in-law, I would have definitely forced him to join the Alchemist Guild.' Yan Jin inwardly spoke in annoyance. 'Sigh, all the plans I arranged for Yan Ning or Dugu Yan to win this competition are now falling apart because of him.'

After three hours had passed, the competition hall began to fill with the scent of Xia Tian's pills, and the audiences could smell the fragrance of his pill.
