Chapter 196 - 196 The peak powers of the Heaven's Dome city

As the white-haired Jin Wenling led the way, she explained to Shun Long about the powers in the Heaven's Dome city.

''Little brother Shun, there are 4 other peak powers in the Heaven's Dome city, aside from our 'Alchemists' Guild'.

Although our guild isn't afraid of any of them, you should still pay attention to them when you stroll around the city.

They are, the 'Mercenaries' Association', the 'Golden Exchange firm', the members of the Dark elf race, and the royal family of the Shengtian dynasty.

Of course, even though they are all peak powers as well inside the Heaven's Dome city, all of them have to at least give our 'Alchemists' Guild' some face.''

Although Shun Long had heard Jin Wenling and the other 3 Elders earlier mention some of these 'strong powers' in passing, it was only now that he had started to get a clear picture of the strongest powers in the Heaven's Dome city.

Jin Wenling looked at Shun Long who seemed to be thinking of what she had just said, and with a smile on her face she then added

''Little brother Shun, although I don't know why I'm unable to sense your cultivation, but since you were able to pass the test and become a silver grade alchemist, you must be at least a rank 9 Spirit realm cultivator.''

It seemed that Jin Wenling wasn't asking Shun Long, but she was just stating what was only normal to her, as she continued

''Since that's the case, I suggest that you take a look at a very interesting place near the western part of the Heaven's Dome city, called the House of Rankings.

It is a place where many young people go and spar with each other.

Although as alchemists we don't really have to care about our combat power since there will be people who will be willing to fight for us anyway, it is still a place that every young person in the Heaven's Dome city should check out.

It can also help you make some personal connections and meet the strongest and most influential people of your generation inside the city.''

Shun Long hadn't expected to hear something like that from Jin Wenling. Nodding his head, he inwardly agreed to have a look at this House of Rankings. After all, although his cultivation had been growing at an insanely fast speed, his combat experience hadn't been honed at the same rate.

Aside from Cui Guoliang, the Dao King who had suppressed his own cultivation when he sparred with him, Shun Long hadn't met with anyone else who could give him such a good fight.

So the moment that he heard about the strongest young people in the Heaven's Dome city, a spark of excitement lit up inside him, curious to check out that place.

A few minutes later, under the shocked gazes of the alchemists around them, Shun Long and Jin Wenling walked in front of one of the many counters, where the 'Alchemists' Guild' sold its pills to the crowd.

The white-robed rank 2 bronze grade alchemist behind the counter immediately stood up and bowed, as he looked at Jin Wenling with a reverent look in his eyes. His voice was trembling slightly as he stared at the bigshot in front of him and asked reverently

''Grand Elder Jin, c-can I help you?''

Since Jin Wenling was a rank 2 gold grade alchemist, she was a Grand Elder of the 'Alchemists' Guild', in comparison to Kong Yan who was still an Elder.

Nodding her head, the white-haired Jin Wenling looked at Shun Long with a smile, her slightly wrinkled face looking like a kind elder who was looking at her junior, as she then said

''Show me your pills, and tell me how many of them do you wish to sell every month. I will verify everything personally.''

It wasn't just the rank 2 bronze grade alchemist who was shocked when he heard that, even the people who were purchasing pills from the nearby counters, along with the alchemists who were responsible for their sales, were now staring at Shun Long with shocked eyes.

Who was Jin Wenling? She was a rank 2 gold grade alchemist, as well as a Grand Elder of the 'Alchemists' Guild'. To pay so much attention to this person... could it be that she wanted to take him as a disciple?''

Shun Long ignored the gazes of the people around him, and waving his hand, more than 20 pill bottles appeared on the counter in front of him.

The 20 pill bottles were filled with either rank 3 'Blood combustion pills' or with rank 4 'Sun-healing pills', with only one of them having rank 3 'anti-toxin pills' inside it

Jin Wenling had already inspected the pills earlier along with the other 3 Elders, so after taking a brief look at them, she looked at the white-robed alchemist in front of her and said

''Each of these rank 3 pill bottles will be sold for 100.000 low-grade spirit stones each. These pills can help increase the cultivation of Heaven grade cultivators, and as top-grade pills, there will be no pill toxins left inside the cultivator's body. Although the price can be considered expensive, these pills don't exist anywhere else, aside from our 'Alchemists' Guild'.''

Shun Long had already discussed this with Jin Wenling. Although he could price the pill bottles at 300.000 spirit stones each, that would be far higher than the actual market value of the pills and would also hurt his image as an alchemist. Of course, at the start, there would surely be some alchemists or big families who would purchase the pills in hopes of finding out the pill recipe, just like the SIlver sword clan did in the Silver sword city, but no Heaven grade cultivator would ever purchase them for themselves. Besides, these big families would only need to buy one pill bottle each.

As for the pill recipe, Shun Long wasn't afraid of people uncovering it by themselves. Even if he revealed that the 'Blood combustion pills' were made from rank 3 'Blood Vermillion fruits', the actual pill refinement process was derived by Shun Long himself, after using his knowledge of countless medicinal herbs.

Looking at the rank 4 'Sun-healing pills', Jin Wenling had a serious look on her face as she said

''Each of these pill bottles filled with top-grade rank 4 'Sun-healing pills' will be sold for 160.000 low-grade spirit stones each. Although there is an abundance of healing pills, top-grade rank 4 pills made from 'Sunskirt grass', can even affect Nascent Soul stage cultivators.''

The man behind the counter was shocked when he heard the terrifying prices that the Grand Elder was listing, but he still nodded his head as he recorded down everything.

However, after taking a look at the rank 3 'anti-toxin pills', Jin Wenling turned her head to look at Shun Long as she asked curiously

''Little brother Shun, are you certain that you want to sell rank 3 anti-toxin pills? Even though they are top-grade rank 3 pills, they still won't be sold for even 8.000 low-grade spirit stones.''

Shun Long nodded his head, not minding the low price that the anti-toxin pills would fetch.

Nodding her head, Jin Wenling helped Shun Long set up the price for his pills.

After thanking Jin Wenling, Shun Long ignored the curious gazes from the crowd around him, as he walked back to the lobby, where Liu Mei was waiting for him along with the black panther.

Seeing Shun Long returning to the lobby, everyone who had seen him walk along with the 2 silver-grade alchemists earlier, had looks of respect in their eyes.

Liu Mei had a bright smile beneath her white veil as she looked at the man in front of her, as Shun Long then held her hand, and mounted on the black panther's back, as they then left the 'Alchemists Guild'.

Looking at the excited Shun Long in front of her, Liu Mei asked in a curious voice

''Long-ge, where are we going?''

However, just as Shun Long was about to respond to Liu Mei, he could feel an extremely powerful aura erupting inside the 'Stone of Time'. Shun Long was alarmed when he felt this aura, that seemed to be even stronger than the peak rank 5 'Silver-winged panther king's'.

Inside the space of the 'Stone of Time', a pair of blue eyes had suddenly opened.
