I Have the Alchemy Emperor in My Head

Chapter 277: You Can Give It a Try

When energy and vitality were linked, it would form a small cycle within one’s body. From then on, True Energy would automatically circulate at any time and place. There was no need to deliberately circulate it.

For those below the Acquired Stage, when cultivating, they would need to purposely direct their True Energy. However, for Acquired Stage experts, even while they were not training, their True Energy would still circulate continuously. It was equivalent to their cultivation increasing at every moment.

Although it was not as fast as when they were cultivating, it was equivalent to cultivating non-stop at every moment. The speed of their improvement could not be compared to those below the Acquired Stage.

According to the cultivation system of the Ancient Zenith Civilization, only by stepping into the Acquired Stage would one have truly stepped into the threshold of cultivation. Before that stage, one would only be considered to be at the preparatory stage of cultivation.

Relatively speaking, most people were not suited to cultivation and did not have the necessary conditions to do so. If one’s body was too weak and did not have a Qi Sea, they would not be suitable for cultivation. Apart from a few people with extraordinary talent, everyone was the same.

Therefore, although there were cultivators back in the Common Era, the scale was never large. It was very difficult to choose an heir, and many inheritances were inexplicably broken.

In modern cultivation, the first was the Physical Stage, followed by the Qi Sea Stage. These two realms were the foundation of the entire cultivation system, reversing the innately inadequate. The more solid the foundation was at this stage, the more powerful one would be. The longer one cultivated, the stronger one would be.

Therefore, only when one reached the Acquired Stage could one be considered to have truly entered the door. In ancient China, true cultivation started at the Acquired Stage, because those who could cultivate were innately gifted. Naturally, there was no need for them to lay a foundation.

However, in the entire cultivation system, the Acquired Stage was just the beginning. Even among high schoolers, those who could reach the Acquired Stage were still as rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns. It was simply a miracle.

This Dong Fanghao’s strength was indeed terrifying!

More than half a year ago, when most of the people were in the Sea Qi Stage, he was already in the Energy Refinement Stage. And now, he was probably the only one among the countless high schoolers in Donghua City who had stepped into the Acquired Stage. His strength was clear for everyone to see.

“He’s indeed very strong. I’m no match for him at this moment,” Chu Yunfan said with a solemn expression. He had fought with Acquired Stage experts more than once, so he was very clear about how terrifying these Acquired Stage experts were. If they fought head-on, regardless of any other conditions, Chu Yunfan would meet them. Then, there would only be the path of defeat.

What Chu Yunfan said was a given. On the other hand, Ran Jun, Yu Xinyuan, and Tong Xinran looked at each other and felt that it was inconceivable. Chu Yunfan was actually targeting Dong Fanghao. For a long time, there had been no student in Donghua City who would make Dong Fanghao their target because he became a high and mighty figure a long, long, long time ago.

No one felt that they could compare to him. No matter how strong a student was, they would be nothing in front of Dong Fanghao. He was a powerful presence who was truly qualified to be the top scorer in this year’s college entrance exams.

Although Chu Yunfan was also the top scorer of a city, there was a huge gap between him and the top scorer of Donghua City, Dong Fanghao. They were not on the same level.

Gao Hongzhi and Tang Siyu, on the other hand, looked completely indifferent. They did not realize that they had begun to trust Chu Yunfan so much.

Suddenly, two figures menacingly approached them.

Chu Yunfan raised his head and saw that one of them was none other than Pan Xiuwen whom he had defeated with a single blow.

In front of him was a tall and sturdy youth. This person was none other than Jiang Lei.

“Did my ears deceive me? Someone actually wants to compare himself to Dong Fanghao?” Jiang Lei strode over, a teasing smile on his face.

Chu Yunfan did not need to look to guess who this person was. There was only one person who could make Pan Xiuwen so respectful. It was the other direct descendant of the Jiang family—Jiang Lei.

“Brother Lei, he’s just in over his head.” Pan Xiuwen sneered as he looked at Chu Yunfan.

“Whether I can compare to him or not is one thing. Some people can’t even begin to compare,” Chu Yunfan said.

“Isn’t that Jiang Lei from Donghua No. 1 High?”

“Yes, that’s him, one of the top ten high schoolers in Donghua City.”

“What’s he doing here?”

The arrival of Jiang Lei and Pan Xiuwen soon attracted the attention of many Calm Ocean City high schoolers. Jiang Lei was famous. Although he was not as dazzling as Dong Fanghao, as one of the top ten high schoolers in Donghua City, his strength was still well-known.

Even within Calm Ocean City, many knew of his strength. Because they were already the top students in Calm Ocean City, if they wanted to go higher, they would naturally have to look at the top experts in Donghua City.

“Some people are just too ambitious,” Jiang Lei spat at Chu Yunfan with a sneer on his face.

“I have something to say to him. Please move aside,” Jiang Lei said as he stared straight at Chu Yunfan.

Everyone quickly made way for him.

“You dare to refuse my good intentions?” Jiang Lei said in a low voice.

“Who do you think you are? Do I have to agree to whatever you say?” Chu Yunfan said with a sneer.

“You’ll regret it. After all, it’s your head. You still have a 50 million bounty on you, and I want to take it,” Jiang Lei said in a low voice.

“How confident are you to come up to me and say these things? If you have the ability, then come and take the 50 million,” Chu Yunfan said lightly, “If you can do it, then go ahead. What’s the use of just talking?”

“Good. You have guts. Hahaha!” Jiang Lei bellowed. “Probably because you beat my cousin, you think that my family is nothing more than this. Very soon, I’ll let you understand that a commoner like you is nothing more than a dog in front of us Jiangs.”

The corner of Chu Yunfan’s mouth twitched. He said, “You can give it a try.”

Jiang Lei looked at Chu Yunfan with a cold smile, then turned around and left, saying, “Remember what you said today.”

Everyone looked at Chu Yunfan and Jiang Lei. They were all guessing what the grudge between the two was. There was clearly bad blood between them. It was as if they had parted on bad terms.

However, before they could guess any further, a virtual projection popped up. On the virtual projection, there was a human figure.

It was an old man who looked about 60 to 70 years old. He wore a long robe from ancient China. He had white hair and a vigor-filled face. He looked like a sage.
