Dragon God Supreme

Chapter 1900: Chapter 1899: Challenge (Second Update)

Huangfu Yan’s furious killing of the Divine Mansion’s Grand Mentor served as a powerful warning, instilling a strong sense of fear towards Feng Wuchen among the mentors and students of the Divine Mansion.

The mansion master and elders had long departed, yet the people of the Divine Mansion remained in a state of shock, enveloped in deathly silence.

No one knew how much time had passed when suddenly, a mentor snapped awake and immediately flashed onto the plaza.

Li Jin was already dead.

“The Grand Mentor has indeed died; I’ve never seen the Grand Elder so enraged. He was terrifying just now!” the mentor frowned, recalling the terrifying rage of Huangfu Yan moments before, still feeling extreme terror.

“Did the Grand Mentor really get killed? Am I dreaming?”

“The Grand Elder actually killed the Grand Mentor; who on earth is that chief mentor? The Grand Elder actually killed the Grand Mentor because of him!”

“I’ve been in the Divine Mansion for six years and never knew the Grand Elder had such a terrifying side. It’s the first time I’ve seen him so enraged!”

“We absolutely cannot offend the chief mentor, or else the Grand Elder will surely kill us.”

The students of the Divine Mansion suddenly awoke from their shock and started buzzing in a panic, their faces still etched with terror.

“Honored Elder, who exactly is that chief mentor?” a mentor asked, looking toward the Descending Honored Elder.

The Honored Elder furrowed his brows slightly and sighed, “He’s a very powerful genius alchemist. You’ve actually all seen him before; he has visited the Divine Mansion, so you should remember him.”

“We’ve seen him?” Everyone was taken aback, and swiftly their minds raced to recall a familiar face.

Before long, the faces of the mentors and students drastically changed; the stranger in their minds was none other than Feng Wuchen.

“The Grand Elder actually killed the Grand Mentor for that kid?” a genius student exclaimed in shock.

“Honored Elder, is he really that powerful? More formidable than our Divine Mansion’s top genius?” another student questioned.

The Honored Elder slightly shook his head and said, “I’m not sure either, but the repeated invitations from the Grand Elder and the mansion master’s heavy emphasis suggest he’s exceptional.”

After a pause, the Honored Elder continued, “The Grand Elder invited Feng Wuchen to become the chief mentor of the Divine Mansion specifically to guide the students of our alchemist division.”

“Guide?” a genius alchemist student stared at the Honored Elder in astonishment.

“Guidance is fine by me, but I won’t offend him, though he’d better not provoke me either,” another genius alchemist declared arrogantly.

“Considering how highly the mansion master and elders regard him, I’d better keep my distance,” another alchemist shrugged indifferently.

Just as Huangfu Yan mentioned, the genius alchemist students of the Divine Mansion were indeed an arrogant bunch.

They did not fear the mansion master and Huangfu Yan because the powers backing them were also incredibly strong, thereby fostering their haughty demeanor.

…

Meanwhile.

In the grand hall of the Alchemist God’s Tower.

“Honored Elder Delegate, are you kidding? A hundred triple-spatial rings?” Inside the hall, Mie Di, Mie Yuan, and others stared in shock, jaws dropping.

Feng Wuchen smiled faintly, “I’m not joking. A hundred triple-spatial rings are nothing to me. Mie Yuan Grand Elder helped me greatly, so naturally, I’m grateful. Besides, as an Honored Elder Delegate of the tower, I have certain obligations.”

To Feng Wuchen, Mie Yuan’s assistance in alchemy was crucial, as it saved the lives of major forces in the Heavenly Realm. Had Feng Wuchen returned any later, Liu Qingyang would have undoubtedly perished, and everyone at the Dragon God Palace and the alliance would have been doomed by the Temporal-Spatial Realm cultivators.

Therefore, the elixir Mie Yuan helped to create was immensely critical.

“Honored Elder Delegate, it was only due to your guidance and provision of the Cangqiong Bodhi Liquid that I could concoct it; otherwise, I wouldn’t have had the capability,” Mie Yuan said with a bitter smile.

Feng Wuchen smiled lightly, “Mie Yuan elder is too modest. If you didn’t have a certain level of realm and strength, what use would my guidance be? There’s no need to decline; you must accept these one hundred triple-spatial rings. Besides, I’ll still need the assistance of the Tower Lord and several elders in the future.”

“Alright, thank you, Honored Elder Delegate.” Mie Di quickly clasped his fists in gratitude, realizing further refusal would seem too distant.

“Tower Lord, elders, Forefather Lin and the others seek an audience,” Dou Luo respectfully reported upon entering the hall.

“Hmph! Overestimating themselves!” Mie Yuan responded coldly, “Let them in.”

“Overestimating themselves?” Feng Wuchen looked at Mie Yuan with a puzzled expression.

Mie Yuan quickly explained, “Honored Elder Delegate, it’s like this; last time…”

Mie Yuan recounted the events, and Feng Wuchen came to understand it was about a challenge they were bringing against him as the Honored Elder Delegate.

“Honored Elder Delegate, Ao Yu’s previous disrespect, I hope you won’t hold it against him,” Mie Jian protector said hastily.

Hearing this, Feng Wuchen said calmly, “I never took it to heart.”

Shortly after, dozens of alchemists led by Forefather Lin entered the hall, emitting an aura of formidable soul power, regardless of elder or youth.

“Greetings to the Tower Lord, Protectors, and Elders!” Forefather Lin and the others bowed respectfully, but notably, they did not acknowledge the Honored Elder Delegate.

Mie Di, Mie Yuan, and the others’ faces darkened, barely restraining themselves from wanting to slap these arrogant seniors.

Feng Wuchen glanced at Forefather Lin and the others, then smiled, “I know you are all dissatisfied with me. You have Divine Emperor Level and Divine Venerate Level alchemists, and you are all my seniors; some are genius alchemists of the Divine Mansion, reputed as the top genius alchemist of the Main God Realm. Indeed, you are all remarkable; it’s normal to be dissatisfied. If I were in your shoes, I would feel the same.”

“Kid, if you can defeat me, I’ll naturally address you as Honored Elder Delegate,” Forefather Lin declared assertively, adhering to his own ways even after previous chiding.

Feng Wuchen nodded slightly and smiled, “I accept challenges from all of you. But please note, I’m currently at the Divine Emperor Level alchemist realm. If you’re willing, we can engage anytime—alchemy, artifact refining, rune crafting, forging, you choose.”

“Arrogant! Do you really think being a Fourth Layer alchemist is impressive?” Nie Huang’s expression turned cold, “I heard you crafted space rings; you must be accomplished in artifact refining. I’ll challenge you in artifact refining; whoever crafts the superior Immortal Artifact wins!”

“Alright! Let’s proceed.” Feng Wuchen agreed without hesitation.

“Insolent!” Mie Yuan’s face grew intensely dark, then said, “Nie Huang, if you lose, immediately kneel and apologize to the Honored Elder Delegate!”

“Don’t worry, Grand Elder, if he can truly defeat me, I’ll not only kneel but also become his disciple,” Nie Huang stated confidently, summoning his Immortal Artifact Refinement Furnace as he spoke.

Unleashing massive soul power immense enough, he subsequently activated the Nine Mei True Fire into the Refinement Furnace, injecting his soul power as well.

With a wave of his hand, a dozen artifact refinement materials appeared in his palm, entering the Refinement Furnace in succession under his control, completing the sequence in one fluid motion.
