Chapter 651

Pill Yang Prefecture . Amongst the surrounding prefectures, it was the one with the smallest territory . Its perimeter was merely ten thousand miles . It was around the same size as the chaos region .

But of all the prefectures in the Eastern Wasteland, it was the richest prefecture . Furthermore, this prefecture only had one master: the Pill Tower .

Everything here was controlled by the Pill Tower . There was no sect or power that could establish itself here . There was also no one who dared try to take a bite of this prefecture’s profit .

Pill Yang Prefecture was a paradise for alchemists; thus, most of the cultivators here were alchemists . The reason why the Pill Tower could gather over eighty percent of all alchemists in the Eastern Wasteland wasn’t just because of its wealth and resources, but because of its extremely precious alchemy tomes .

Only by entering the Pill Tower could you study those ancient pill arts that had been pa.s.sed down from ancient times . Only by entering the Pill Tower could you reach the peak of the Pill Dao . That was the first thing alchemy masters imparted to their disciples .

Only by entering the Pill Tower would you have a chance of entering the holy land of cultivation: Pill Valley .

Pill Valley represented the supreme authority of this world’s alchemy arts . It was the most sacred power in this world . There was not a single alchemist who didn’t treat joining Pill Valley as their lifelong ambition .

Pill Yang Prefecture was actually one city, a monstrously enormous city . There were dozens of roads that were over thirty miles wide to allow for the carriages to pa.s.s .

All of the carriages were being pulled by Xiantian Magical Beasts . Weaker Magical Beasts weren’t even able to run fast enough .

The city was just too big . If you didn’t have good means of transportation, it might take you many days just to get to the other end of the city .

Above the city, it was common to see large Magical Beasts flying . But the people below were too lazy to even look at those enormous figures . This was the Pill Tower’s territory, and no one dared be unbridled here . No matter how fierce a person was, they had to be obedient here .

The flying Magical Beasts were all registered with the Pill Tower . Each of those Magical Beasts had a large symbol around their neck which was a pa.s.s to fly here . Without it, they would be killed by the Pill Tower’s guards .

The flying pa.s.ses were extremely limited . Not just anyone had the qualifications to obtain one . Those who could sit on flying Magical Beasts all had high statuses .

Within Pill Yang Prefecture, there was a large tower, a tower so high that it soared into the clouds . It was impossible to see its top .

This was the Pill Tower’s symbolic building: the Seven Treasure Jewel Tower . It was forbidden to fly within thousands of miles of the tower . No one could fly around there, or the Magical Beast and its master would be instantly killed .

This was the core region of the Pill Tower, and it was called the treasure tower region . Only alchemists had the qualifications to enter this place . Other cultivators were forbidden .

Outside the treasure tower region, Long Chen was sitting in the corner of a restaurant, looking at the scenery outside . He was having a drink on his own .

This was his third day here . He had pretty much familiarized himself with this unfamiliar environment . He had also learned some common knowledge regarding the Pill Tower . It should be enough .

After eating and drinking his fill, Long Chen went to find somewhere to rest and think of how he would muddle his way into the Pill Tower .

Without realizing it, Long Chen walked into a remote alley . This alley was a bit shabby and was extremely unremarkable . It was precisely the kind of place he wanted .

“Does sir want a place to rest? Our rooms are very clean, and the price is exceptionally cheap . Come and have a look!”

Long Chen was in the midst of walking when a small door opened, and a girl appearing thirteen or fourteen years old shyly peeked out .

This girl couldn’t count as beautiful . She was extremely thin, and her complexion was an unhealthy yellow color . It was clear that she had some malnutrition problems . But her eyes were extremely lively, and they made people feel pity for her .

“It sounds like you’ve been waiting to say those words for a long time . ” Long Chen laughed . He words were said extremely stiffly .

This girl had only summoned the courage to come out when she saw someone was pa.s.sing . But then seeing Long Chen’s evil smile, a trace of panic filled her .

“I… I…” The girl clenched her robes, afraid to say anything .

Long Chen couldn't help laughing . It seemed his new face had ended up scaring her . “No need to be afraid . I’m not a good person, but I’m not a bad person either . ”

Long Chen hadn’t changed his voice . It was still very magnetic, and it made her relax slightly . “Does sir want a place to rest? Our rooms are very clean, and the price is exceptionally cheap . Come and have a look!” She repeated her words, hope appearing in her eyes .

“Yes, now it sounds better . Your words don’t sound as stiff as before . In recognition of your advancement, I’ll agree to take a look . But let me say this first, if it’s not satisfactory, I won’t be staying there . ” Long Chen laughed .

“Yes, yes, please enter!” The girl hastily led the way with delight .
