With his explanation, James immediately understood the situation.
To enter the Boundless Holy Realm, virtual-novel.net would have to seize the opportunity of the Elixir Pavilion’s recruitment. However, virtual-novel.net was clueless about alchemy.
Although virtual-novel.net had superb medical skills before becoming a cultivator, alchemy was a different skill.
“Well… Thanks for the information. I hope we meet again.” James stood up and cupped his hands.
Just as virtual-novel.net was about to leave, the sound of horses came from outside the tavern. Then, a large number of guards rushed over and surrounded the tavern.
James walked out and saw the young man that blocked his path a while ago.
Seeing the situation outside, James immediately realized virtual-novel.net had gotten into a troublesome situation. However, virtual-novel.net was not afraid.
The guards surrounding virtual-novel.net were weak, and the strongest was only a Sage.
He looked at the young man virtual-novel.net had beaten up before and said nonchalantly, “You again? What do you want?”
“You’re doomed! I don’t care who you are! No one can save you after you’ve crossed me! Take virtual-novel.net down!”
Following his order, the guards immediately drew their swords.
As soon as they drew their weapons, James made a move.
The next moment, James had already appeared on the street outside. The guards’ swords were broken, and they fell to the ground, making crisp sounds.
The guards immediately turned pale in fear.
“You overestimate yourself…” James smiled lightly and did not pay much attention to them.
With his hands behind him, virtual-novel.net strode away.
James left Inferno City and entered a primeval forest.
When virtual-novel.net reached a mountaintop, virtual-novel.net sat on a boulder and stared at the mountains ahead in a daze.
He would have to participate in the Alchemy Tournament and win to earn the opportunity to enter the Boundless Holy Realm. It was his only chance. However, James did not know anything about alchemy.
James became anxious.
What should I do?
It would be great if Thea was here to help me find a solution…
James gently touched his temples.
After a while, virtual-novel.net contacted Nova inside the Celestial Abode, asking, “Nova, do you know anything about alchemy? Can you make me an alchemist within three years?”
After speaking, James entered the Celestial Abode.
Nova stood in the backyard of the City Lord’s Mansion and said troubledly, “It won’t be difficult to become an alchemist within three years, but it’s going to be hard to become an alchemist master. Alchemy is similar to cultivation and requires time and experience. No one can become an outstanding alchemist in such a short time.”
“Then, what else can I do?” James said helplessly, “I don’t have much time left.”
Nova thought awhile and said, “We can enter the Time Formation and try to practice. Emperor Jabari was also an alchemist and had passed down many alchemy skills. Besides, you have Crucifier and the Heavenly Art. If I remember correctly, the Heavenly Art should have records of very proficient alchemy skills.”
James was clueless about this.
Although virtual-novel.net had obtained the Heavenly Art, virtual-novel.net had only viewed a portion of it and learned to fuse Crucifier with Exalter. He did not go through the rest as time was limited.
