Chapter 32: Chapter 32 Alchemist guild (Updated)
Seeing that the sun was setting down and that most disciples have already returned to their room to rest, Nightin strolled out of his room.
When Nightin was alone in his room, he had been making plans for the next step. His sect needed the assistance of an Alchemist, this was the conclusion he came to after a whole afternoon of pondering.
An Alchemist will not only provide elixirs for the sect to help the disciples with their cultivation, it would also help the sect to generate income. By placing those elixirs for sale up on the market, it wouldn't be difficult for the sect to profit greatly from it. With the profit gained, the sect would be able to advance in many areas which are cost intensive.
If the sales of the elixirs go well, then the sect might be able to develop their own stalls. From there, the Nirvana sect would be able to spread their name further while having their own source of income.
Breathing in the fresh air, he strolled down the steps, towards the Cloud Moon city.
With his cultivation, it wouldn't be difficult to arrive at the Cloud Moon city in just a few moments. Even so, he wanted to experience what the mortals experience, he had one been one of them. Their life had been carved on his bones which ingrained the attitude of hard work and resilience in him.
Entering the city, what he saw was a bustling city with many road stalls beautifully decorated with bright lighting. The simple yet exquisite lighting gave the place a different atmosphere. It gave Nightin an inspiration. He'll wanted to make it possible for anyone to enter the Nirvana sect.
Any mortal or cultivator can head to the martial hall to cultivate together, they can share about their experiences and many other stuffs which would benefit the cultivation world greatly.
It might only be an idea right now, but he was sure that it would prove to be beneficial one day if things go as planned.
In the cultivation world, such a sight could never be seen. People were occupied with cultivating and fighting for every single cultivation resource they can get, who would bother wasting their time just to have some fun in the mundane world?
Walking past the road stalls and making a left turn, he arrived in front of the alchemist hall where people are crowding at the entrance.
The Alchemist Hall was decorated with simple wooden materials on the exterior, those wood were so clean that not a single speck of dust could be seen.
The exterior was made of Oak Wood which has went through three layers of purification from the Alchemists and were enchanted as well. The entrance was opened widely with the two words "Alchemist Hall" hanging up there alone by themselves.
Entering the alchemist hall, Nightin walked up to the young man at the counter as he told him, "I'm the sect master of the Nirvana sect and I would like to meet your hall master."
The man bowed as he informed Nightin, "I'm sorry, but the hall master isn't around at the moment."
Nightin replied as he took out a scroll, "Do help me to pass this to you hall master once he returns, don't even try to open it if you value your life."
The scroll might have only been written simply before he made his way here, but the conditions and information were all listed on the written scroll.
The youth at the counter rejected the letter politely as he said, "I'm sorry,but I'm not qualified to receive a letter which should be passed on to the hall master. Give me a moment, I'll get an elder to meet you instead."
The youth was hesitant about the identity of the man in front of him, if he was an imposter, he would most likely lose this small job of his. But considering the consequences, he had no choice but to take the risk and find a elder.
He was only a mortal born without the talent to cultivate. Even so, his parents had toiled their entire life to pay for his education fees and from there, it took him three years to gain the qualifications to work here. The pay was decent, but limited for a mortal like him.
Soon, the youth came back with a elder behind him. The elder was wearing a green robe which has a insignia imprinted on his robe, this showed that he's actually an Alchemist master. One must know that even in the whole southern continent, the number of alchemist masters are still below a hundred, yet one of them was standing right before him right now.
The elder studied Nightin for a moment before introducing himself to Nightin, "Young fella Nightin, I've been hearing your names wherever I go for the past few days, it really is an honour for me to meet you in person."
The elder took over the scroll as he invited Nightin into a secret meeting chamber to discuss about some matters.
After entering the room, a formation array was activated to prevent their conversation from being heard by anyone outside. Nightin had once saw a similar formation array similar to this at Eira's residence that day and wasn't surprised.
Judging by the energy fluctuations and complexity of the formation array , it was of a lower quality compared to the one Eira possessed.
The elder took the initiative to initiate the conversation with a question, "Young fella Nightin, I'm there first elder of the alchemist hall around this area,may I humbly request to know the reason for your sudden visit?"
Nightin kept silent as he poured himself a cup of tea, red rose tea. Lifting it up and breathing in its fragrance, he took a sip of it. The energy within the red rose leaves seems to have increased his spirit energy slightly, this shows that the tea that he's drinking right now doesn't come by easily to have a effect of a martial spirit like him.
Slowly bringing himself back from the amazement brought from the tea, he replied, "It's nothing much either, I just hope to establish a friendly cooperation between the alchemist hall and my Nirvana sect ,may I know if you have the authority to decide on something like this?"
The first elder body shook for an instant,yet he calmed himself down immediately. As someone with experience in the cultivation world, it's not a wonder that he can calm himself down almost instantly. Even though he hid it well, this little action of his wasn't able to escape Nightin's eyes.
Nightin looked at the elder as he warned, "Don't you dare to try anything stupid if you still value your life." The elder had no choice but to take back his thoughts.
In both of their heads right now, the two of them were thinking of methods, vicious and merciless ways of killing. They both may be acting on the surface ,but the duo here definitely have the same thoughts.
The son of the head of the alchemist hall had used his power to force him to poison Nightin to death,but now that his plan has been exposed, there's no point in trying to hide it anymore.
The elder closed his eyes as he laughed "You have seen right through me,I can't tell you who told me to do so,but I can lead you to the hall master. When he said this,his eyebrows twitched slightly. His first plan may have failed,but he still had a backup method
The elder placed his hand inside his robe as he took out a map,a map precious enough for him to keep it within his sight at all times regardless of the situation.
The map marked out a single location,the secret basement of the alchemist hall. The first elder passed it over to Nightin with a sly smile which escaped Nightin's eyes "Little fella Nightin,you have to save our hall master,our hall master has been trapped within the secret chamber."
Nightin took over the map and opened it up to take a look. From what he can see,the hall master is trapped in a area under the alchemist wall,in which the area can only be accessed through entering the formation array.
Nightin asked the elder "Elder,may I trouble you to lead me to the formation array, I'll have to make a trip personally to save the hall master."
The elder laughed as he agreed without any hesitation "Very well,follow me. You'll definitely be greatly rewarded if you were to save our hall master successfully."
Nightin nodded his head as he followed behind the elder. On the way,he could see that the alchemist hall may only be made of wood,yet they were actually all dusk wood. Dusk wood is a material which can withstand even the full attack of a Martial Lord. The ground was decorated with a single red carpet with yellow diamond lines at the side as a design,this simple design actually gave the place a feeling of simplicity.
Soon, Nightin and the elder arrived in front of the formation array. The elder looked at Nightin as he asked solemnly "Are you sure about your decision?"
Nightin nodded his head and agreed without hesitation while saying "Of course I'm sure of it. I'm sure that nothing is too difficult for me and that I'll save the hall master without any difficulty."
In the eyes of the elder, Nightin is nothing but his meal of the day for him to further improve his cultivation. To him, Nightin was just another young genius who's getting arrogant about himself because of one small achievement which he had managed to do by a stroke of luck.
Right when Nightin turned his head around,the elder pushed him into the formation array while telling him "You'll be a great help for my cultivation,child!"
