Chapter 417: Chapter 413 Heavenly Mechanism Chaos Battle "The effects of the pills are indeed good, but not as magical as you described," Qiu Yong said. "The pills crafted by Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion are different from ordinary ones; each batch takes years to perfect. They greatly aid those practicing martial arts by improving physique and speeding up the cultivation of their skills. However, while the pills are beneficial, one can at most consume one. Overconsumption will only lead to the body developing resistance and nullifying their effects." After listening to Qiu Yong’s explanation, Ling Chen nodded, and with curiosity, he asked, "Big brother, those novels often mention Shaolin’s Great Rejuvenation Pill. Is that real?" Qiu Yong affirmed, "The Great Rejuvenation Pill truly exists, but its effects are not as astonishing as the books claim. Across the Martial Arts circles today, there are only two kinds of pills with the most significant effects—one being the Heavenly Mechanism Pill crafted by Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion, and the other is the Xiangrun Pill from the Shi Family." "Shi Family?" "That’s Shi Su’s family; they hail from a lineage of traditional Chinese medicine, profoundly knowledgeable about ancient Chinese medical practices. Throughout Huaxia’s history of thousands of years, much of the essence of traditional Chinese medicine has been lost, only the Shi Family has preserved it completely. The Xiangrun Pill they craft is even slightly superior to the ordinary Heavenly Mechanism Pill. However, I’ve heard that the ingredients required for the Xiangrun Pill are extremely precious, making them very scarce, and the Shi Family only has two or three pills in stock." "Big brother, you just mentioned the ordinary Heavenly Mechanism Pill, does that mean there are different kinds?" "Indeed. There are three types of Heavenly Mechanism Pills crafted by Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion. Although they share the same name, their effects vary. There’s the ordinary, the premium, and the top grade—each corresponding to different groups: the Tiger List, the Dragon List, and the Earthly List. Otherwise, why do you think the Heavenly Mechanism Great Ceremony attracts so many participants? It’s because of the Heavenly Mechanism Pill." During the conversation, Zhou Qi, who was in charge, announced loudly, "Ladies and gentlemen, today is the first day, and Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion has specially prepared six prizes, plus a grand prize that includes a premium Heavenly Mechanism Pill. So if you’re interested, don’t hesitate, or you might miss out on something good. Now, who would like to be the first on stage?" "I’ll give it a try." As soon as Zhou Qi finished speaking, a middle-aged man stood up from the crowd and walked up to the stage with firm strides, greeting everyone with a fist and palm salute. "Is there anyone who would like to come up and offer guidance?" "I’ll take you on." Someone immediately responded, ready to challenge. The rules of the Heavenly Mechanism Chaos Battle were simple—anyone who could maintain five consecutive victories on the platform could take home a prize. As simple as it sounds, fulfilling it was not easy. Witnessing the back-and-forth between the two men on the stage, Ling Chen was secretly astounded. As expected of the Heavenly Mechanism Great Ceremony, none of those invited by Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion were weak, including these two seemingly obscure men whose strength was not less than those on the Tiger List. "Ling Cheng, watch closely; you might learn some experience," Qiu Yong reminded. "Got it." While Ling Chen was enjoying the competition on the stage, he felt an intermittent gaze sweeping over from the opposite side. Ling Chen looked up to see someone seated at the other end of the platform—it was Zhu Xiaozhu. As their gazes met, Zhu Xiaozhu turned her head away bashfully, her cheeks slightly flushed as she watched the contest on the stage absent-mindedly. Neither Ling Chen nor Zhu Xiaozhu noticed that their inadvertent actions had been observed by someone nearby. At that moment, a clear gong sound resonated, and the contenders on the stage had concluded their match, determining the victor by point scoring. The middle-aged man who went up first succeeded in holding the stage. Half an hour passed, and the middle-aged man won four rounds in a row, but unfortunately lost in the last match, narrowly missing out on Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion’s generous reward. By noon, no one had succeeded in claiming a prize. "Ladies and gentlemen, this morning’s Heavenly Mechanism Chaos Battle has come to an end. Please take a break; we will continue at two o’clock in the afternoon." Hearing Zhou Qi’s words, everyone stood up and walked in groups toward the restaurant on the magnificent cruise ship. After watching the battles all morning, they were famished. The restaurant offered a buffet with a wide variety of food, both Chinese and Western, and even the chefs were top-tier chefs from star-rated hotels. In terms of food and accommodation, Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion was far from stingy, aiming to provide everyone with the best service. "Ling Cheng, eat more, the main event is in the afternoon," Qiu Yong patted Ling Chen’s shoulder and said. Ling Chen grinned and said, "Big brother, I never treat myself poorly when it comes to eating." After saying that, he picked up two plates piled with food and sat down at a dining table. Just as he was about to start eating, Ling Chen suddenly felt a sharp gaze staring right at him, very close by. He slowly lifted his head and looked across the table, only to see a young man leaning on the table, looking down at him with displeasure. Ling Chen put down the salt and pepper shrimp in his hand and smiled, "My friend, if you want to eat, go get your own. What are you looking at me for?" "The surname is Ling, cut the crap with me," the young man said coldly. "I’m warning you, stay away from Xiaozhu. If you dare to so much as glance at her again, I’ll gouge out your eyes." Hearing the young man’s threat, the smile on Ling Chen’s face gradually faded and he replied indifferently, "Who are you?" "Han Yu! If you want to leave this ship in one piece, remember what I’ve said." After speaking, Han Yu glanced at Qiu Yong and the others coming over and turned to leave. Watching Han Yu’s retreating back, Ling Chen slightly furrowed his brows. Han Yu? The Han Yu who’s ranked second on the Newcomer List? Damn it! Who have I offended? Why does everyone from the Newcomer List find trouble with me? I’ve never even interacted with Han Yu. Xiaozhu? That’s right! Thinking of Han Yu’s words just now, Ling Chen instantly realized that it was all because of Zhu Xiaozhu. He vaguely remembered that the night he met with Shi Su, he was told that there was a young prodigy a thousand times better than him being introduced to his disciple. Could that person be Han Yu? Darn! Ling Chen couldn’t help but want to curse. Why was his luck so terrible, to be inexplicably making enemies and being threatened like this? Did he look like someone who was easy to bully? "Ling Cheng, what are you thinking about?" Wei Jiahao’s voice reached him, and Ling Chen looked down and fiddled with the pepper salt shrimp on his plate, casually saying, "It’s nothing." After lunch, everyone returned to their rooms for a rest. At two o’clock in the afternoon, they gathered at the venue once again. The host, Zhou Qi, walked up to the center of the arena with a smile and said, "To save everyone’s time, make up your minds. If you want to come up, just come up. I won’t bother with any more talk." As soon as the voice fell, Ling Chen saw Yuan Yun, who was sitting next to Xia Yue, get up and walk towards the ring. "Third brother?" Ling Chen paused, then quickly turned his gaze to Qiu Yong and the others, only to see them all with calm expressions, not at all surprised by Yuan Yun’s move. "Big brother, did you all know that third brother was going up?" Qiu Yong nodded and said, "Your third brother is worried about your injury, so he wants to win a Heavenly Mechanism Pill for you, to give you a better chance when you face Yi Shuiyan." Hearing this, Ling Chen felt warmth in his eyes and a touch of emotion welled up in his heart. Follow current novels on freewe(b)novel.c(o)m
