In My Head There is an Alchemy Emperor
Chapter 2:Gaining Inheritance in Dreams
Many students' eyes were beaming. They couldn't help but get excited. On the path of cultivation, Inner Energy was the source of everything. The best time to build their foundation is before they mature. The better the foundations, the better for their future.
This was especially true before they were divided into different streams before their senior year. They would only have a chance to break into the martial arts stream if they reached the Tier-7 Physical Stage. Cultivating martial skills would require time that they could use to cultivate Inner Energy. This will reduce their chances of getting into the martial arts stream.
Therefore, many parents spoke up in previous years, asking the school to remove classes that teach martial skills. This is to prevent their children from being distracted and wasting time.
Moreover, these students would live in a base city before they became adults. There was practically no danger there, so it was extremely useless for them to learn martial skills.
But it's different now. Within a month, they will have their final exams. The fate of a person could be considered determined back then. Those who qualified for the martial arts stream would be placed there and there was nothing that could be done by those who failed back then.
Inner Energy was only half of Martial Dao cultivation. The remaining half was the cultivation of martial skills. Even with a lower cultivation base, a martial artist mastering a martial skill could defeat one who did not master it.
Therefore, the cultivation of martial skills was also important. No one will ignore that!
Naturally, not everyone ignored the cultivation of martial skills, so it was not an obligation. Those who are talented may have already started to develop martial skills.
Chu Yunfan's eyes observed many of his classmates. As expected, many did not seem to be affected. They must have developed martial skills before. Not only that, those students were pretty much made up of the most talented in their class.
They were people who could enter the martial arts stream, so even the weakest ones were at the Tier-7 Physical Stage.
After all, Chu Yunfan was still excited. He had not learned any martial skills since young. He knew that it was easy for one to learn martial skills and low-level skills were taught online if one was willing to pay.
Despite this, he suppressed his impulse. One reason was because he knew he was not talented. He did not even have enough time to meditate and practice martial arts. If he spent time developing martial skills, he would have no hope of getting into the martial arts stream.
The other reason was that he did not want to waste money because the school would bear it sooner or later.
Qin Wu went to the right after disbanding the class. He did not want to delay and did not want to waste time there.
The whole class started chatting. Many were discussing what kind of martial skill Qin Wu would teach the next day. After all, most had never learned it before, so it made sense that they were excited.
After speaking for a while, everyone got up and started packing their bags. Classes are over for the day, so they'll be home.
Chu Yunfan got up and started packing his bag in the corner. With one more day finished, he was ready to go home.
Tap, tap, tap!
There was a series of footsteps coming from a plump young man who was the same age as Chu Yunfan. The usually loose martial arts uniform was so tight on him that it seemed like it was about to tear.
Although he looked fat, in fact, his footsteps were light. He ran quickly, but he did not blush and his heart did not pound. He must have been cultivating.
This was one of the few good friends of Chu Yunfan, Gao Hongzhi. He was tall, rich, and fat.
He knows his best friend very well. He practiced and was much stronger than Chu Yunfan, having reached the Tier-9 Physical Stage. Even though he was one of the outstanding students who would definitely get into the martial arts flow, he usually behaved exactly as one would expect. He will sit if he is not required to stand and will move as little as possible.
Her weight was caused by genetics, but everyone could not help thinking that it was because she was lazy.
The two are very different in terms of their families and talents. Usually, the two would have parallel lives and not talk to each other. Instead, their similar interests made them good friends during their two years in high school.
“Part of the Ancient Zenith relics travel exhibition from the Academy of Sciences is being exhibited in our school. Are you not interested in the Ancient Zenith civilization? Why don't we see it?” Gao Hongzhi asked.
“Residence of the Ancient Zenith civilization? Sure, let's check!” Gao Hongzhi's words had piqued Chu Yunfan's interest.
The atmosphere was bustling as the two of them arrived at the space the school had vacated for the exhibition. Although SMA No. 13 Calm Ocean City was an ordinary school among dozens of high schools in the city, the number of teachers and students reached 10,000. It was like a small town, so one could imagine how densely packed everyone who went to the exhibition was.
Since the disaster, the excavation and research restoration of the Ancient Zenith civilization has been a major function of their entire society. The government will continue to flaunt the less important relics of the Ancient Zenith civilization everywhere.
The relics of the Ancient Zenith civilization exhibited in the traveling exhibition at High School No. 13 are just a small part of the entire collection.
Chu Yunfan and Gao Hongzhi slowly moved with the crowd. Chu Yunfan stared at the items locked inside the tempered glass. There were stone inscriptions from the Ancient Zenith civilization, broken weapons, and so on. Although they are historical relics, in fact, they do not have great value.
There was a description written in a strange and complicated script ahead. The text was from the Ancient Zenith civilization, but it was not difficult for students to read it.
This is because learning a language became mandatory after the Ancient Zenith civilization was discovered when mankind entered the Kunlun Era. It was like a Chinese student learning English in the Common Era.
The language looks very similar to the seal scripts common in China's past. There is also a pictograph. It is much simpler compared to the English system.
Because the script is similar, historians have always assumed there was a connection between ancient China and the Ancient Zenith civilization in the Kunlun Realm. They just haven't verified it.
Chu Yunfan stared as if he was window shopping. Although this was a historical relic, he had seen it many times on the internet. The picture of the relic printed in their textbooks was similar to this, so it was nothing new to him. It's just that he saw the truth.
Suddenly, he saw a huge picture scroll hovering above the ancient sword on one of the exhibition platforms.
The scroll had a landscape painting with mountains and rivers. The ink splashes were bold and majestic. Although it was a painting, it made Chu Yunfan feel as if Heaven and Earth had been imprinted on it.
It seems a bit unbelievable, because it's just an ink painting!
“Gao Old, is the painting part of the exhibition too?” Chu Yunfan pointed at the landscape painting on the exhibition platform.
The Ancient Zenith Civilization was at least tens of thousands of years in the past. Such a long period of time was enough to erase everything. Even so, the painting of the scene looked like it had just been completed.
Even though Chu Yunfan had a weak cultivation base, he knew that such a thing was common when excavating ancient civilizations. It was like a unique energy barrier that made this artifact seem like it was new even after tens of thousands of years.
These things can basically be categorized as magic tools. Even a magic tool restored with modern technology would cost at least a million or even tens of millions, let alone a very ancient magic tool that had been preserved since the Ancient Zenith civilization. Their value is huge.
How could such a thing be exhibited in school? The total value of all the exhibits is nothing compared to the painting.
“What painting?” Gao Hongzhi's reaction shocked Chu Yunfan. What kind of joke is that? How could he not see such a huge work of art?
“I didn't see it. You should not stop taking your medication! ” Gao Hongzhi patted Chu Yunfan's shoulder clearly. He spoke as if he had trained the words, “We men should take care of our bodies. See ye. You're hallucinating! ”
“Ennyah! Expel!” Chu Yunfan really wanted to step on the face of Gao Hongzhi's stye.
When he looked again, the painting was still hovering above the ancient sword.
Surprisingly, when he looked around, no one seemed to notice. Apparently, he was the only one who could see it.
“Am I really hallucinating?” Even Chu Yunfan was a little unsure of himself at that moment. Furthermore, he could not confirm anything when there was a crowd between him and the painting.
Suddenly, the painting turned into a beam of light and shone towards him. It penetrated his mind instantly.
Bang out!
It felt like something had exploded in Chu Yunfan's head, leaving him no time to react.
He felt like countless lights were shining inside him. His entire body was in a lot of pain, as if every cell had exploded and been torn apart.
Meanwhile, many images rushed to his head.
It was like a dream, but it was real. In the dream, he was someone else.
It was a dazzling world with many Emperors. His behavior is extraordinary beyond imagination. It has conquered time after age, swept through various dimensions and conquered many countries.
Meanwhile, he was a genius alchemist. He started refining medicinal pills when he was five years old and was already familiar with medicines by the time he was ten years old. He was already famous as an Alchemy Master when he was 15 years old.
At the age of 20, he started traveling the world, and he became the Alchemy King, adored by everyone, when he was 25 years old. When he was 30 years old, he had become an Alchemy Emperor, a title that no one would ever reach again.
Not only did he master the alchemy knowledge inherited from people in the past, but he also continued to create new treatments, making alchemy one of the most outstanding fields in the world.
Even the Emperor wanted the medicinal pill he refined. Many people would fight for whatever pills he released to the public.
At that moment, it could be said that his life had reached its peak, and he was a young man who was proud of it. Everything changed when the picture scroll descended from the sky during that war. It caused many Emperors in that era to fight over it.
The reason for the conflict is that there is a Godhead in the picture scroll. It was something that could make anyone a god, as well as grant immortality and the ability to travel to other realms.
Hence, the Alchemy Emperor participated in the war as well. It was a terrifying battle, a clash of gods and demons. There were many figures fighting intensely in the sky. All are very powerful, like demons. They can do anything—catch the stars and moon, reverse the river and sea.
Although the figures on the battlefield were extremely formidable, they were blurred and their faces were not clearly visible. One of them was incredible, capable of fighting up to a hundred demons alone. His face was also covered. One could only see his pair of golden eyes, as deep as if there was a universe hidden within them. The power as they opened and closed was completely earth-shattering.
As the battle intensified, most of the extremely powerful figures died. Finally came the time for a majestic figure with shining golden eyes.
The world is collapsing everywhere. Although the Alchemy Emperor had put away the Godhead in the landscape painting that belonged to him by accident, he had been attacked by many Emperors. As he was not proficient in Martial Dao, he was immediately killed. At that moment, the replayed image suddenly stopped.
Chu Yunfan suddenly woke up from a boundless dream.
