To Be Celestial's Emperor II
The Tournament Starts II
The masters immediately drained their energy to heat up the cauldron that was before all of them. But when the cauldron received their energy, it was as if an extremely ferocious hole absorbed all of that energy to nothing and changed the cauldron as it was at the beginning.
They were all shocked and understood by Bald Kun's explanation. The formation seemed to absorb their energy in order to be unable to heat the pill cauldron instead of cooling the cauldron. Therefore there was still a chance for them to heat the cauldron.
Similar to heat energy that can absorb and evaporate in a certain time, when the cauldron has been successfully heated with a little energy, the heat energy will be stored in a certain time. If the pill master could take advantage of the moment and gather the remaining heat energy to heat the cauldron then they would be able to successfully defeat the formation that absorbed their energy.
Bald Kun was a little excited at the enthusiastic look of the masters who were sending their energy on the cauldron. Unbeknownst to them that the energy they sent out was absorbed by the formation that was within the cauldron and collected by the sect of the Elixir Medicines.
All of these were the ideas of Zhen Yuan, he who suggested that the sect of the Elixir Sect seek energy reserves that could be used freely. Long before the arrival of the central palace, Zhen Yuan had suggested Bald Kun, but only now could he run it.
“Sekte Panjabah Mujarab spent a lot of money to hold this tournament, because it is okay for us to do this as long as they do not know.” Balak Kun told the elders of the sect.
Later on the accumulated energy would be used to power the grand formation used for sect operations. That way, the Efficacy does not cost a lot for their operational activities.
Thirty minutes passed, many masters began to regulate their breathing. Since they were draining so much energy in the beginning, now they had exhausted themselves and the energy they had only remained a little. They also could not stop because the heat energy they gathered had reached half. If it stopped then the energy they might have accumulated over the past 30 minutes would have ended up in vain.
Meanwhile Bald Kun smiled widely as he got a telepathic message from Qing Hongyun guarding the energy gathering of the masters. Qing Hongyun sent out the news that the Elixir Medicine sect would not run out of energy for the next year with the energy that had been gathered.
“Again! I hope many masters will last more than 3 hours!” answer Bald Kun.
Because many 6th and 7th grade masters attended this tournament, which among them were Mortal cultivators let alone the Central palace that did not lack Mortal cultivators. Mortal Cultivators would have no problem heating the cauldron in such a long time because the quality and energy they possessed were far greater than Soul cultivators.
Those who have managed to survive so far have managed to get a technique to be able to last as long as possible without having to stop heating the quality. Bald Kun's smile also widened after getting a report from Qing Hongyun that the energy supply for the next 3 years was guaranteed.
But to look good before the masters, Bald Kun had prepared a Soul Pill that could restore some of the energy that had been lost to the fallen masters.
The first round match finally ended within 10 hours, when the number of remaining masters numbered in the thousand. Bald Kun almost laughed happily at the amount of supplies the Eucalyptus sect had in the coming years.
“Congratulations to the master who succeeded in this first round! In order to recover the energy, we have prepared some special dishes that can slightly entertain the masters. In addition, for the second half it will be done two days ahead, so during the break time, the masters can wander around in the Elixir Sect to see and enjoy the paid facilities that are here”
After that, Princess Yewan Er appeared together with Darma. Both of them became elders chosen by Bald Kun to accompany the masters during the competition of the Conferred Medicine Pill. Darma escorted all of the masters who had escaped the second half to the hall, while Princess Yewan Er escorted the failed masters to wander around the sect of the Elixir Medicine.
Another purpose of holding this pill competition, was because it wanted to introduce the sophistication and technology that the sect possessed to the outside world. So that when the sect of the Elixir Medicine opened it to the outside world, some of them had already known and spread information by themselves.
“The room on the left is the energy gathering formation room” Princess Yewan Er pointed to the row of rooms on their left.
“That room has a formation that when used can gather the lost energy from our body like a Soul Pill. However its efficacy and effects were much greater than that of a Soul Pill. Only by using Five thousand gold coins could a normal Soul cultivator recover half of his energy so quickly! And if enter 10 thousand then the recovered energy is 100%”
Princess Yewan Er had been taught while in the Eternal Moon revision how to offer a customer and convince them. And it turns out that the princess is talented in terms of offering something because Bald Kun chose her as the master's guide.
