Zhen Lu said angrily, what he was most proud of was his pill refining skills. This guy, he was about to die, yet he actually ridiculed him for refining the pills, he was truly arrogant.
"It just so happens that I know how to forge pills as well. I wonder if you dare to compete with me?" Chu Chen asked with a smile.
"You want to compete with me in pill forging?" Zhen Lu's eyes congealed, wondering if he had heard wrongly.
In Blue Dragon City, if he said that he was number two in pill forging, who would dare to say that he was number one? As a dignified Master Zhen Lu, his reputation was not for nothing.
"You don't dare to compete?" Chu Chen asked.
Zhen Lu sneered twice: "You are afraid of being killed, which is why you want to compete with me in pill refining in order to stall for time, right?"
"I'm alone, are you afraid of having helpers? "Before the pill forging competition, I can allow you all to monitor me at any time in Blue Dragon City. If you don't dare to accept, you can just say so." Chu Chen said indifferently, his expression not changing.
In actuality, what Zhen Lu had said was precisely his goal.
With the master of the Azure Dragon City, if he wanted to make a move, with his cultivation, he might not be his match.
Of course, Chu Chen was not afraid.
With the Spirit Rainbow Beast, once released, it would be sufficient to deal with City Governor Qiu.
But the consequences of doing so, the news of him possessing a Ancient Exotic Species, would definitely spread far and wide.
With Zhen Lu's network, there would be more than just the city lord, if all of them rush over to help, it would be troublesome.
The reason why he proposed this pill refining competition was because he wanted to use this as an opportunity to break through.
Zhen Lu's eyes turned, as though he was thinking about what Chu Chen said, and it seemed to make some sense. In Blue Dragon City, no matter where he was, he would be able to find it, let alone worry about having a helper.
Thinking up to this point, he made a decision in his heart. If he had just been defeated, and if he let City Lord Qiu make a move yet the one to be embarrassed was still himself, then he might as well rely on his own strength and concoct pills to defeat the other party.
That's it!
"Zhen Lu, this mayor came here to kill someone for you. Are you going to go back on your words now?" The Azure Dragon's City Lord frowned, and his gaze swept over the crowd with a trace of majesty.
"Don't worry. We won't need to wait until we kill someone. I will cash in on the Yuan Essence Grass's chips for you. My old friend, do you not trust me?" Zhen Lu said to him.
"Since that's the case, I'll believe you." Mayor Qiu's eyes flickered slightly, as if he had seen through Zhen Lu's thoughts.
"I agree to the Pill Forging Competition. May I know how you wish to compete with me?"
"I'll give you the answer before sunset." Chu Chen said calmly.
"I'll wait for you before sunset. If you don't keep your promise, you'll never see the sun tomorrow." Zhen Lu said coldly.
"Fleeing is something a coward would do."
Chu Chen left behind these words. Without even looking at the Azure Dragon Master, he left in large strides.
"You want to save some face and let me kill him?" The Azure Dragon's City Lord spoke.
"That's right." Zhen Lu nodded fiercely.
"That's unnecessary. If you had said something just now, I would have killed him immediately." The Azure Dragon's City Master sneered, and didn't say anything more.
As long as the other party was willing to give him Yuan Essence Grass, he would not care about anything else.
"There's still some time before sunset. That's enough." Chu Chen looked at the sky and returned to the tavern.
If he wanted to get to the bottom of this, Chu Chen wanted to know Zhen Lu's alchemy level clearly before deciding on the level of pill to refine.
With Zhen Lu's fame in Azure Dragon City, Chu Chen immediately found out about what he was looking for within the tavern.
After returning to his room, he began to digest it.
Zhen Lu could refine a sixth stage Spirit Pill, but he would consume a lot of energy.
Chu Chen rubbed his nose, deep in thought.
The first time he refined a pill, he was only able to refine a first grade Spirit Pill.
He did not have a single flame he could control. He only used the Flame Mantra and combined it with the Fire Elemental Energy, creating a simple flame.
The reason why I was able to refine it at that time was because of my soul force. If I had to compete to refine a sixth stage Spirit Pill, then I definitely would not have been able to win.
"With my current cultivation and soul force, I should be able to refine a third grade Spirit Pill, then a third grade Spirit Pill."
Rank four Spirit Pill was something that Zhen Lu refined frequently, and while a Rank five or six Spirit Pill could make it a little difficult for him, it was impossible for him to refine it himself. It was only Rank three Spirit Pill that was most suitable.
After that, Chu Chen went to the pill s store to learn about it and bought a set of recipes for the Cloud Accumulating Pill.
The Cloud Accumulating Pill was a third grade Spirit Pill.
Choosing it, Chu Chen had his own plans. This kind of pill, in the process of refining, didn't have too high of a requirement on flames. On the contrary, it had a higher requirement on soul force.
Before sunset, Chu Chen sent out a message that he would be sparring with Zhen Lu in pill refining, so that he could prepare a Level 3 Spirit Pill.
In Blue Dragon City, Zhen Lu received the news and smiled sinisterly: "I thought you were strong, but you actually competed and refined a third stage Spirit Pill. My record is a sixth stage Spirit Pill.
Chu Chen set the time as three days later. Within these three days, he had to familiarize himself with the pill formula and at the same time, personally refine it several times to ensure that he would be able to successfully refine a third grade Spirit Pill.
Just on this first day, a few people came to the inn looking for Chu Chen.
Sensing the Qi on their bodies, the shopkeeper was so scared that his entire body started trembling, and he immediately brought the few of them to Chu Chen's room.
The door opened, and Chu Chen squinted: "Why are you here?"
"A fierce person appeared in Blue Leaf City and blasted Zhen Lu away in public. He is not afraid of the Azure Dragon City's master at all. With such a glorious result, it would be easy for us to find him."

The one who spoke was a young lady wearing a green skirt and a beautiful face. She stood at the door and looked at Chu Chen with a smile.
Beside her were two young men.
The three of them were precisely the people from Holy Land of Hundred Spirits,, and Lin Dong.
"Is there something you need from me?" Chu Chen was suspicious. He felt a little surprised that the three of them had arrived.
"At the end of the day, you've helped us. You can't just stand by and watch us die." Guan Xinghai laughed.
"You're not going to save him?" Chu Chen squinted his eyes.
"On that day, the Giant Demon Dragon's sudden appearance, the Heavenly Beast Mountain, as well as the people from the Fogstone Sect all suffered, and then the elders from the two sects took action, bringing them back. After you break one of Ba Lengchuan's and Yan Song's arms, they will not let it go, as long as they recover, they will definitely come and find you.
"They're already here?" Chu Chen asked.
What you did in Blue Dragon City will be known to them soon. In addition, Zhou Haoyin, the person you killed under the Divine Spirit Beast Mountain, is a disciple of the Heavenly Thunder Sect. This power will probably rush over in the next few days. Guan Xinghai added.
"Are all of you here to kill me?" Chu Chen sneered.
It seemed that he had to be careful. If he was surrounded, the situation wouldn't be good.
"You don't have to worry. This time, we have come not to tell you about these things, but to help you."
"What do you mean?"
"The Giant Demon Dragon attacked. You reminded us, and can be considered to have saved us. In order to repay your kindness, we invited you to our Holy Land of Hundred Spirits." Huan Xin said with a smile.
Hearing that, Chu Chen's eyes flashed, while he was unconscious, they saved him once, and when the Giant Demon Dragon attacked, he also reminded them, which counted as him returning the favor, both sides did not owe each other anything, and Huan Xingran probably invited me to Holy Land of Hundred Spirits because of my cultivation level.
There was no need for Chu Chen to refuse an olive branch extended from his Holy Land of Hundred Spirits. Furthermore, it was at such a crucial moment.
With a hearty laugh, he said, "Since none of you are afraid of trouble, there's no need for me to hesitate and refuse."
"Come in and take a seat." He called out to her.
"If brother is willing to make this friend, how could it be troublesome?" The three of them walked into the room and sat down cross-legged.
Chu Chen instructed the shopkeeper to bring some wine over, he was prepared to chat with the few of them.
The three of them, no matter who it was, were extremely curious about Chu Chen. For example, where he came from, what sect he came from, and why he was in Divine Spirit Beast Mountain.
In the face of these questions, it was impossible for Chu Chen to tell them all, and was only bringing them around as he wished. The few of them could tell that he did not want to talk about it, so they did not ask anymore.
