Chapter 386: Chapter 386: Entering the Pill Pole Tower

Three days later, the Black Cauldron City was once again bustling with activity.

Today was the day when Fang Lin, Zhao Shenkong, and Su Xiaotong were to enter the Pill Pole Tower. From early morning, many Pill Refiners had gathered in the square to witness this moment.

“What exactly is inside the Pill Pole Tower?”

“I heard it contains insights left by many ancient pill-refining experts and can even enhance a Pill Refiner’s talent.”

“There must be more to it than that, or the Pill Pole Tower would not be deemed a holy land of Alchemy Tao.”

“Haven’t those geniuses who entered before revealed anything?”

“Didn’t you know? Anyone who has entered the Pill Pole Tower must keep its secrets.”

“No wonder that after so many years, the Pill Pole Tower is still such a mystery.”

“Heh, I guess we won’t have such luck in this lifetime.”

The crowd was engaged in heated discussions. The Pill Pole Tower was a place of mystery to them. Even though they talked a lot about it, the real secrets of the tower were probably only known to those who had actually entered it.

There wasn’t just one Pill Pole Tower. One was in the Lower Three Kingdoms, another in the Middle Three Kingdoms, and one more in the Upper Three Kingdoms.

Besides, there was also a Pill Pole Tower in the distant Seven Seas region.

It was said that a fourth Pill Pole Tower also existed in the desolate icy northern lands of the Nine Countries, but it collapsed for some unknown reason a thousand years ago.

After the collapse, a great disturbance occurred in the icy northern lands. Many powerhouses went there to seize opportunities, sparking factional slaughter.

Of the remaining three Pill Pole Towers, the one in the Upper Three Kingdoms was the most superior. The opportunities it contained were unimaginably vast, but the entry conditions were extremely demanding.

The Pill Pole Tower in the Middle Three Kingdoms was second. It contained infinite opportunities and was deemed a holy place that countless Pill Refiners in the Middle Three Kingdoms wished to enter.

Even though the Pill Pole Tower in the Lower Three Kingdoms was less superior to the other two, in a certain sense, it wasn’t inferior either.

Because a peerless powerhouse had emerged from this tower, who had joined the ranks of the four Heaven Kings of the previous Pill Alliance.

However, that happened five hundred years ago. That Heaven King had long withdrawn from the world, and his whereabouts were unknown.

Some powerhouse once said that the three Pill Pole Towers were actually the same. The differences in the opportunities obtained were because those who entered were different.

If one was a true chosen one who had the favor of the heavens, then even if they entered the weakest of the three towers, they could obtain the greatest gains. In plain words, it depends on the individual.

At this moment, Pill Refiners from all three countries had also flocked here, and the three figures that drew the most attention, naturally, were Fang Lin, Zhao Shenkong, and Su Xiaotong.

Countless people looked at them with envious eyes, especially Fang Lin. Not only could he enter the Pill Pole Tower for opportunities, but he could also go to Xuan Country afterward to further his training for a year.

This was a huge advantage. Ordinary people who wanted to go to a stronger country to improve themselves must have connections; otherwise, there was no chance at all.

Take Fu Haixin from the Ten-thousand Medicine Sect as an example, who was taken to Ling Country to cultivate because an expert from the Pill Alliance in Ling Country noticed his talent. Without the recommendation of the Pill Alliance or the support of a powerhouse, it would have been impossible for him to gain a foothold in a place like the Middle Three Kingdoms on his own.

Xuan Country, among the Middle Three Kingdoms, was currently the most prosperous in Alchemy Tao and was subtly catching up to the Upper Three Kingdoms.

Everyone understood that to be able to train in Xuan Country, even if it was just for a year, Fang Lin would surely benefit immensely.

Zhuge Cang, Chen Mu, and Lu Wuwei had also arrived. Opening the Pill Pole Tower was a major event that required the joint command of the three City Lords, and the upper echelons of the Pill Alliance had to grant permission beforehand.

Otherwise, given the status of the three people like Zhuge Cang, they wouldn’t have the qualifications to open the Pill Pole Tower on their own. If they dared do so, they would face severe punishment by the Pill Alliance.

Even though Zhuge Cang and the others were City Lords, among the three, only Lu Wuwei had the chance to enter the Pill Pole Tower.

However, Lu Wuwei had only gained a little bit when he entered the tower, which wasn’t too impressive. His peers who were geniuses had already surpassed him, climbing even higher in the Pill Alliance.

“Today, when the Pill Pole Tower is opened, remember that although all seven floors will be accessible to you, how far you can climb still depends on yourselves. Don’t force yourselves to go further. Otherwise, if you are rejected by the Pill Pole Tower, it will directly expel you,” Zhuge Cang warned.

The three of them nodded. They were already pretty familiar with these details beforehand.

Then, the three City Lords took out their respective commands and went to the front of the Pill Pole Tower’s gate.

The gate was quite ordinary, a simple stone door without any intricate carvings.

The commands of the three City Lords floated up, emitting three rays of light that shone onto the stone door.

The next moment, that tightly closed stone door emitted a faint glow. In the gaze of the crowd, it slowly opened.

“If not now, when?” Zhuge Cang bellowed loudly. Fang Lin and the other two immediately stepped forward. A violent suction force swept over, instantly sucking the three of them in.

Bang!

Right after that, the stone door closed again, and the commands flew back into the hands of the three City Lords.

“This time, the Pill Pole Tower has been opened. I wonder what kind of opportunities these three will come across,” Zhuge Cang wondered out loud.

Chen Mu wore a grave expression: “Hard to say, but they probably won’t disappoint.”

Lu Wuwei on the side scoffed: “If their luck is rotten, they’ll just probably walk around and come right out.”

Hearing his words, Zhuge Cang and Chen Mu both chuckled. Lu Wuwei had the chance to enter the Pill Pole Tower back in the day. After just a couple of rounds inside, he had acquired some minor gains and then excused himself. This still left a bitter taste in Lu Wuwei’s mouth and he was regretting it to this day.

“Right, isn’t that kid Fang Lin supposed to participate in the upcoming Great Competition among the Three Kingdoms?” Zhuge Cang suddenly asked.

Chen Mu nodded: “That’s right, he is set to compete as a substitute for Qian Country.”

Zhuge Cang frowned: “That means his trip to Xuan Country will have to be postponed, at least until the Great Competition among the Three Kingdoms ends.”

Setting aside what was happening outside, at this moment inside the Pill Pole Tower, Fang Lin looked around with a confused expression. Su Xiaotong and Zhao Shenkong were nowhere to be seen. It seemed they were teleported to different locations.

Fang Lin found himself in a stone room. There were three items in his view.

An extremely ordinary Pill Furnace, a dusty ancient book, and a black bottle of Pills.

Fang Lin looked puzzled. What did this mean? Was this the legendary opportunity? Was it this careless? Did he come across it this easily?

Fang Lin carefully approached the three items, just as he was about to examine them, a voice suddenly echoed in his ears.
