It is said that the alchemy competition held by the Eastern District Alchemist Guild is about to begin in just a few days.
Ruan Xiyan and her group were currently not close to the East District Alchemist Association, so they didn't want to miss the alchemy competition.
Ruan Xiyan summoned Yaoyao, who had an even faster flight speed, from the Wind Spirit Space.
Although Yao Yao is not good at fighting, as its strength increases, its speed also becomes faster, and traveling ten thousand miles a day is easy for it.
With Yao Yao there, they should be able to get there on time if they keep rushing to the Alchemist Association in the East District.
A magical beast flashed across the sky, and a group of disciples dressed in gorgeous robes, who had just come out of the city, looked up in confusion at the direction above.
What kind of monster is that? Its speed is terrifying.
The leading man took out a compass from his pocket. Different patterns were engraved on different parts of the compass, some of which resembled spiritual herbs, and others resembled magical beasts.
At this moment, a monster-like pattern lit up on the compass.
Fetin's eyes widened in disbelief as he stared intently at the glowing pattern on the compass.
He looked up again at the monster that had long since disappeared from the sky.
His face betrayed his barely concealed excitement. "Investigate! Quickly find out who just passed by."
The monster that just passed by was clearly being controlled by someone; it was a spirit pet that had been contracted by someone.
"Some of you go investigate, the rest of you come back to the sect with me first," Fei Ting said impatiently.
It's astonishing that these rare magical beasts, known as medicinal beasts, haven't gone extinct; some have even survived.
Among the rare and precious materials that the sect leader entrusted him to find, medicinal beasts were ranked first.
Unfortunately, the race of medicinal beasts was wiped out ten thousand years ago and has disappeared without a trace.
They had no hope for the medicinal beast, but this time they were pleasantly surprised.
If he can bring this news back to the sect leader, he will surely receive a reward from the sect leader.
"Yes, Senior Brother Fei," the disciples replied.
Although I don't know what Senior Brother Fei saw that made him so excited all of a sudden.
But Senior Brother Fei is the sect leader's most capable and valued disciple, so they just need to follow his orders.
After several days of travel, Ruan Xiyan and Jun Yu arrived at Gudan City.
The Eastern District Alchemist Guild is located in this ancient city of pills.
Ruan Xiyan and Jun Yu strolled along the city streets. Due to the alchemy competition held by the Eastern District Alchemist Association, alchemists could be seen everywhere in the city.
Those alchemists wore badges on their chests that symbolized their status as alchemists.
The badges are all different in style and color, and are divided according to a certain alchemist level.
In the past, on the secular continent, there was no power that could accommodate alchemists, and alchemists were extremely rare.
But the cultivation continent is different; there are far more alchemists here.
Furthermore, the Alchemist Branch is an upper-class force on the continent, while the Alchemist Guild is an even more prestigious force.
With their immense and extraordinary influence, they enjoy a very high reputation among alchemists.
Alchemists on the mainland need to go to the Alchemist Branch or the Alchemist Headquarters to participate in the Alchemist Examination. They will be awarded a badge representing their status based on the level of the examination.
Although there is no explicit rule in the cultivation world that requires alchemists to have an alchemist badge.
However, for a long time, it has been common knowledge that alchemists possess level badges.
Only alchemists with alchemy level badges are recognized by others as legitimate alchemists.
Even in major cities, some shops selling medicinal herbs offer discounts to alchemists, and the only proof of an alchemist's identity is an alchemy level badge.
It can be said that for an alchemist traveling on the continent, an alchemy level badge is indispensable.
Ruan Xiyan looked at the tallest building in the city, which was the location of the Eastern District Alchemist Branch.
Before participating in the alchemy competition, I need to test my alchemist badge, since the alchemy level badge is quite important.
As if remembering something, Ruan Xiyan took out a token from the Wind Spirit Space.
This was a gift from Elder Yan, whom I met at the Bright Moon Pavilion auction when I first arrived in the cultivation continent. He said he was the branch president of the Eastern District Alchemist Association.
So much time has passed, I wonder if that old man Yan still remembers her.
Ruan Xiyan looked at Jun Yu beside her.
"Ah Yu, we've been traveling at a fast pace. The alchemy competition isn't until tomorrow, so come with me today to take the alchemy level badge test."
Jun Yu held Ruan Xiyan's hand and gently replied, "I'll do whatever you say, Ayan."
The entrance to the Alchemist Guild.
Ruan Xiyan looked at the huge pavilion that occupied most of the city. Several pavilions were connected together, all belonging to the Alchemist Association.
And the decorations everywhere exude luxury.
Ruan Xiyan couldn't help but sigh. As an upper-class force, the Alchemist Association, with its numerous alchemist disciples, was truly wealthy.
It's likely that even some top-tier organizations might not be able to match the wealth of a single alchemist branch.
"This is the Alchemist Guild. Unauthorized personnel are strictly prohibited from entering. Please show your Alchemist Rank Badge." The guard at the door raised his hand to stop him.
Ruan Xiyan looked at the guard who had stopped her. He was wearing an orange badge, which indicated that he was a second-grade alchemist.
The alchemy level badge has a simple design, with an image of an alchemy cauldron engraved on it, and a gemstone of a special material engraved in the center of the cauldron.
Gems come in seven colors: red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, and purple. These colors correspond to alchemists of ranks one through seven.
The red gemstone alchemy cauldron badge is worn by first-grade alchemists, while the badge of a seventh-grade alchemist is purple.
For each rank above the seventh-grade alchemist, a golden pattern will appear around the alchemy cauldron on the badge, and the pattern will look exactly like the pill pattern.
The badge of an eighth-grade alchemist is purple, and in addition to the alchemy cauldron, it also features a pattern of pills.
A ninth-grade alchemist has two pill patterns, while the legendary tenth-grade alchemist can also be called an emperor-grade alchemist.
The badge of an Imperial-grade alchemist corresponds to a three-line pill pattern.
However, since the establishment of the Alchemist Branch, including the Alchemist General Association, there has never been an Emperor-rank Alchemist.
To be more precise, there is no trace of an Emperor-level alchemist on the entire cultivation continent at present.
Ruan Xiyan looked at the guard. Even the guard at the gate of the Alchemist Branch was a second-grade alchemist. The Alchemist Branch's foundation was truly profound.
"I'm here to take the alchemy level badge assessment," Ruan Xiyan said.
The rank badge is so important that I must get it before the alchemy competition starts tomorrow.
Otherwise, without the alchemy level badge, she wouldn't know if she could participate in the alchemy competition.
Upon hearing this, the guard glanced at Ruan Xiyan and said in a calm tone, "Since you have an assessment level badge, come in with me."
