Chapter 293: Dou Zun Formation Setup
A costly space ship emerged from the wormhole of the Holy Pill City. Before the ship landed, the people on board put it away, and two figures firmly stopped in mid-air. Under the amazed and envious gazes of many, they entered the Holy Pill City. It was Xiao Ze and the great elder, both exhausted from the journey, finally returning to the Pill Tower.
Once there, without stopping, they headed directly to the grand black tower. The expedition to the ruins had been fruitful, and they could choose to deliver those treasures to the Pill Tower to earn merits, as well as receive additional rewards.
Inside the grand tower, Xuan Kongzi was frowning as he reviewed a scroll. Earlier, Xiao Ze had rescued the Pill Tower disciples from an attack on a sub-branch of the Soul Hall and had destroyed that sub-branch. Recently, the Soul Hall had increased its attacks against the Pill Tower, perhaps having discovered something, or simply as a pretext to attack the tower's alchemists.
Therefore, the alchemists outside the tower were vulnerable to Soul Hall's attacks. Xuan Kongzi was worried because, although the Pill Tower was powerful, he did not desire an open war with the Soul Hall.
At that moment, a disciple announced the arrival of the great elder and Xiao Ze. Hearing this, Xuan Kongzi was pleased, as he had been worried about them due to rumors of great changes in the deep-sea ruins. If it weren't for their life cards being intact, Xuan Kongzi would have gone personally.
When he saw the two return safely, Xuan Kongzi smiled with relief.
"Greetings, President Xuan Kongzi."
"Great elder, Xiao Ze, how did the expedition go? Any significant findings?" Xuan Kongzi asked with a smile.
The great elder, with a solemn expression, detailed what had happened. Xiao Ze added details of his own experiences. After listening to the report, Xuan Kongzi could not help but be surprised.
"I didn't expect the deep-sea ruins to be so dangerous, with spiritual slaves, the Great Sea Saint, and Sheng Ling involved... and celestial-level combat techniques."
Xuan Kongzi was impressed and satisfied with their performance.
"You have worked hard. The Pill Tower will not disappoint you. Rest today, and tomorrow we will discuss the rewards."
Xuan Kongzi dismissed Xiao Ze and the great elder, who bowed and left.
Closing the door, Xuan Kongzi reviewed the scroll handed over by the great elder.
"The deep-sea ruins... We must be more cautious with these kinds of unknown ruins. If it weren't for Xiao Ze, they might not have returned safely."
"With true saints involved..." Xuan Kongzi said, gently tapping a jade on his desk.
Soon after, two other presidents appeared in the room.
"The great elder and Xiao Ze have returned. This is the report of the events."
Xuan Kongzi handed the scroll to the other presidents, who, after reading it, were also surprised.
"Those deep-sea ruins are truly dangerous. That the great elder and Xiao Ze returned with so many findings was not easy."
Xuan Yi understood Xuan Kongzi's intention in calling them.
"Xuan Kongzi, are you worried about how to reward Xiao Ze?"
"I want to propose him for the Little Pill Tower, but its members are very conservative and difficult to convince," replied Xuan Kongzi, somewhat frustrated.
"With Xiao Ze's merits, he deserves to be one of the eight great elders, but since they have not yet retired, entering the Little Pill Tower would be a good reward," said Xuan Yi, sharing Xuan Kongzi's concern.
"I don't understand why they make it so complicated. Xiao Ze can enter the Little Pill Tower on his own merits by creating an eight-color pill. He doesn't need to depend solely on his merits," Tian Leizi intervened.
Tian Leizi's words made Xuan Kongzi and Xuan Yi reflect.
"True, Xiao Ze has the ability to create the eight-color pill. We don't need to go through the standard procedure of the Little Pill Tower."
With Xiao Ze's progress in alchemy, the three presidents did not doubt his capacity to create the eight-color pill.
...
Meanwhile, Xiao Ze and the great elder went to the Elder Hall. There, Xiao Ze exchanged some of the obtained treasures for merits and kept what was necessary. The rest he exchanged for four level eight pill formulas. Happy with his new acquisitions, he bid farewell to the great elder and returned to his tower.
Outside the tower, Xiao Ze took out a Dou Zun level formation he had obtained earlier. Injecting Dou Qi into the core, he pressed it against the tower's wall, spreading a network of symbols that perfectly covered the structure, enhancing its defense.
"This set of formations is very convenient. Usually, formations are difficult to move, but this one can be disassembled and carried. Truly a masterpiece."
"It's a pity there weren't more complete formations in the deep-sea ruins. Otherwise, I would have more of these useful protections."
Inside the tower, Xiao Ze sensed two powerful auras, like volcanoes about to erupt, accumulating energy for an imminent breakthrough.
"It seems they are close to achieving the breakthrough," Xiao Ze said, nodding. Then, he destroyed the information he had left before leaving. Now that they were back, it was no longer necessary.
Xiao Ze took out the formulas from the Elder Hall and, taking advantage of his free time, began to study them.
