Chapter 1134

The Xuantian Dao Sect’s grand formation was activated, surrounding the entire sect . Countless disciples looked around in panic, not knowing what was happening .

“Everyone, don’t panic! Something happened in the Alchemy Pavilion! Don’t make any random movements . ” The shouts of Hall Masters rang out over the crowd .

The Alchemy Pavilion was situated on a huge mountain hundreds of miles wide . The many grand buildings that had dotted the landscape were gone, replaced by a large hole .

The other disciples were ordered not to move, but Long Chen was not one of them . He rushed over to get a better look . Seeing the destroyed Alchemy Pavilion, his eyes were cold .

The Xuan Master, Tower Department Head, and Liu Cang also arrived . All the higher-ups were present . The Xuan Master’s normally indifferent and leisurely expression was now frighteningly dark .

“Zhao Changting, tell me, what happened?” The Xuan Master stared coldly at the Alchemy Pavilion Master . Even killing intent had started to leak out of him .

The Alchemy Pavilion was the Xuantian Dao Sect’s foundation . There were hundreds of alchemists inside and over a thousand disciples . This terrifying explosion had killed at least half the alchemists, and the majority of the rest were heavily injured . The Healing Hall was currently rescuing them .

“It was disciple’s negligence . There were two disciples who took out Earth Flame seeds, and as a result, I don’t know what happened, but those two Earth Flame seeds suddenly began to rebel . They exploded, and that caused the other Earth Flame seeds to explode with them…” said the Alchemy Pavilion Master with alarm .

Long Chen had run over to the core region, and the aura of Earth Flames was still present . He cursed inside . Instead of giving them to him, they had been wasted like this .

The power of an Earth Flame seed’s explosion was extremely terrifying, especially when it exploded underground . Furthermore, there had been multiple Earth Flame seeds exploding . There was no need to doubt how much destructive power such an explosion possessed,

Long Chen picked up a piece of a broken bottle . This was clearly an item used to store an Earth Flame seed . The aura of the Earth Flame it had once contained was still present .

Earth Flame seeds couldn’t be stored with metal instruments . That would cause it to feel an innate hostility, and it would instinctively attack the metal . Not only would that destroy the instrument, but the Earth Flame would also escape . And even if that didn’t happen, it would exhaust the Earth Flame seed’s energy until it dissipated .

That was why Earth Flame seeds were stored in special bottles with formations present . That was the only way to keep them obedient . It would be like they were sleeping inside .

Although it was just a bottle, it wasn’t like a normal bottle . It was just the opposite . The cultivation world’s bottles were made of material stronger than steel, making them extremely st.u.r.dy .

Picking up a fist-sized piece, he sniffed it . The Alchemy Pavilion Master was infuriated to see Long Chen’s actions, but he was also a bit panicked .

“You really are vicious . You actually applied Everlasting Frostheart Powder to the bottle . It corroded the bottle and spread a layer of ice energy imperceptible to the naked eye . When an alchemist touches it, the ice energy will provoke their Pill Flame, causing the bottle to instantly shatter . Thereafter, the ice energy on the bottle will attack the Earth Flame seed inside . An unintelligent Earth Flame seed will then naturally explode, and that will cause the others to explode as well . Tell me Pavilion Master, were the disciples you sent to take out the Earth Flame seeds your most outstanding disciples?” Long Chen sighed .

The Alchemy Pavilion Master raged, “Long Chen, don’t slander others or make up random guesses! This was just an accident . ”

Long Chen looked at him sympathetically . The Xuan Master’s words were absolutely true . The cultivation world’s people cared too much about power and didn’t know how to use their heads .

Long Chen raised the fragment . “The Everlasting Frostheart Powder is a medicinal ingredient, but it is also used in forging items . I’m sure the majority of the forging disciples would recognize it . Should we have a Forging Master look?”

“There’s no need . There truly is Everlasting Frostheart Powder on it . It’s clear with just a look . It expels Ice Qi used in forging for cooling . But when it encounters flames, especially powerful flames, the Ice Qi will be locked within the weapon . It’s one of the most elementary methods for creating ice attribute weapons . I would be willing to bet my own head that Everlasting Frostheart Powder has been applied to this bottle fragment,” said a muscular but short elder .

Hearing that, everyone’s expressions changed . The one who had just spoken was the Forging Pavilion Master . He definitely wouldn’t randomly spout nonsense .

“Zhao Changting, don’t you think you should give me an explanation?” demanded the Xuan Master coldly .

“Xuan Master, I have no idea about this . Someone’s definitely framing me, I-” cried the Alchemy Pavilion Master .

“That’s fine . Such a minor thing is very simple . ”

The Xuan Master waved his hand, and s.p.a.ce twisted . A huge mirror appeared in the air . When the Alchemy Pavilion Master saw this mirror, he immediately turned as pale as paper .

The mirror lit up and s.h.i.+ned its light on the ruins . Figures flashed back and forth until finally, a burst of flames erupted from the center of the ruins .
