Chapter 498: The Banquet
In the night, in the Xuanyuan Palace, a palace is still brightly lit.
This palace is built on the top of a mountain peak that is nearly 10,000 zhang high, deep in the clouds, the clouds are churning, the fog is shrouded, and it is like a fairyland.
In the main hall, a series of figures sat cross-legged, and above each figure, there was a powerful momentum, around them, as if they were all a world of their own, and they were all like towering giants standing in their respective worlds.
The atmosphere in the hall was extremely lively, and loud laughter was constantly heard.
Today, the ordinary disciples of Xuanyuan Palace were still calm, but the upper echelons of Xuanyuan Palace were shaken.
An alchemy master who can refine the pill of the pill joined the Xuanyuan Palace.
Several palace masters in the sect decided to hold a banquet in this hall to celebrate, and at the same time to welcome him to join the alchemy master.
In the main hall, there were just twenty people, and Wang Haochen was among them, and the position he was sitting in was extremely high.
Of the eighteen elders of Xuanyuan Palace, there are fifteen of them present tonight, and the remaining three elders are either in retreat, or going out, or have something to do, and they really can't come, and the rest have arrived.
In the past, there was no alchemy master in Xuanyuan Palace, so it was not too late for an alchemy master to join, and in the future, I would look directly at him to help with alchemy, naturally no one dared not to give face.
At the top, the six palace masters of Xuanyuan Palace, and four palace masters were also present.
The Great Palace Master and the Second Palace Master are in retreat all year round, and it is difficult to see that even if an alchemy master like Wang Haochen joins, the sect will not dare to easily alarm them.
After all, if a sect wants to gain a foothold, high-end combat power is indispensable, and only the stronger the people above, the more the sect can develop and grow.
Wang Haochen sat in it, feeling the powerful and terrifying aura in the hall, and he was also secretly frightened.
The twenty people in the hall, except for him, are all realm-level powerhouses.
"It is worthy of being one of the seven major sects of the South Star Continent!" he was shocked in his heart.
Before coming to Xuanyuan Palace, I had seen only two or three Realm Lord-level powerhouses, and it was conceivable that Realm Lord-level powerhouses were quite rare in the Holy Spirit Domain, but Xuanyuan Palace, just in this hall, there were nineteen, and not all.
Thinking about the land of Wuhuan, a realm lord-level powerhouse is enough to guard such a large area, and you know how great the deterrent power of a realm lord-level powerhouse is.
There are dozens of master-level powerhouses in the Xuanyuan Palace Realm, which is indeed not comparable to the so-called four major families like the Wuhuan family.
Everyone gathered in the hall to celebrate, eat and drink, and the atmosphere was extremely relaxed.
Whether it was the elders below or the four palace masters above, they were all extremely enthusiastic, so that Wang Haochen did not feel any discomfort, and he had gradually integrated into it.
In his observation, he found that in addition to the third palace lord and the fourth palace master, there were also one or two elders, who were indeed showing real kindness to him, and there was no hypocrisy, even if it was the third palace lord and the fourth palace master, they were only slightly cold, and they did not embarrass him.
Therefore, there is no discordant sound in the main hall.
The food, wine, melons and fruits in the hall also opened Wang Haochen's eyes.
The food is extremely powerful demon beast meat, which contains extremely rich energy, and when eaten for a long time, it can nourish the flesh and blood, and the wine is also a spirit wine specially brewed for martial artists, even if it is a realm master-level powerhouse, if the amount of alcohol is not good, you will get drunk if you drink too much, and you can't use cultivation to resist, however, there are many precious elixirs added to the wine, and after drinking, it can faintly promote the improvement of cultivation.
All the elders in the hall are realm-level powerhouses, and they don't feel anything, but Wang Haochen is still just a true saint cultivator, a glass of wine in his stomach, it feels like swallowing a fire dragon, churning in his body, a fiery breath is steaming in his body, and it doesn't take long for his face to be flushed, and the yuan power in his body is also surging and boiling, and in just an instant, they all begin to slowly rise.
Although the speed of improvement is not fast, it is a real improvement.
Melon and fruit snacks are also some heaven and earth spirit fruits, and when you take a bite, they are all mouthful, and they also have rich energy.
After just drinking two glasses of wine and eating a small amount of animal meat and fruit snacks, he didn't dare to move anymore.
He was so rising, the energy in his body seemed to be overflowing, his body seemed to be carrying a sun, the heat was extremely uncomfortable, the yuan force was churning, surging wildly in his body, he was afraid that something would go wrong.
Although he seemed to be listening to the laughter of everyone in the temple, most of his mind was actually dissolving the terrifying energy in his body.
"Wang Haochen, with you joining, the strength of our Xuanyuan Palace will definitely improve again, I won't talk about unnecessary nonsense, I will be my own person in the future, I hope you can contribute to the strength of the sect. Above, a ruddy-faced white-haired old man raised his glass slightly and said slowly.
This old man's name is Yin Jiu, and he is the third palace master of Xuanyuan Palace, and he is a Qiankun realm master.
Wang Haochen hurriedly stood up, picked up the wine glass in front of him, gritted his teeth slightly, and raised his head to drink.
"Hahaha...... Okay, you kid is a true saint cultivator, and it is extremely rare to dare to eat and drink like this!" beside Yuan Qiong, a big man who was a little stronger than Qi Reckless laughed.
The laughter was like thunder, and the hall shook faintly, which made Wang Haochen's eardrums hurt.
That person is not only similar to the body of the mang, but also looks like a god, Wang Haochen has learned from the conversation of the elders that the two are grandchildren.
Wang Haochen was shocked at that time.
The two Qiankun realm masters in the family are both in the position of palace masters, which is unimaginable.
The big man's name is Qiu Shan, the fifth palace master of Xuanyuan Palace, although he and Qiu Mang are ranked at the bottom of the six palace masters, but they are also full of weight in the palace, the two of them are united, even if the big palace master and the second palace master are afraid of three points.
Qiu Shan and Qiu Mang, the two palace masters, have extremely bold temperaments, and they are also very close to Wang Haochen.
Because the two of them are also from the Xuanyuan Continent.
In fact, among the six palace masters of Xuanyuan Palace, except for them, the Great Palace Lord and the Old Ancestor are all from the Xuanyuan Continent.
Although the six palace masters belong to the same sect, but Xuanyuan Palace is such a big sect, some interests are inevitable, even if they stand higher, starting from the overall situation of the sect, if they don't fight, those people below will also fight.
The sect naturally derived the two veins of Xuanyuan and the Holy Spirit, and the disciples below also stood in line.
The Xuanyuan First Pulse is all people who came from the Xuanyuan Continent, or their descendants, and the Holy Spirit First Pulse is naturally composed of those Holy Spirit Domain powerhouses who have joined the Xuanyuan Palace.
Because of the old ancestor and the palace master pressing on it, although the Xuanyuan vein is an outsider, it is much stronger than the Holy Spirit vein, and it has been suppressing the Holy Spirit vein, and now there is an alchemy master like Wang Haochen joining, and the Holy Spirit vein will be suppressed even more ruthlessly.
Wang Haochen is from the Xuanyuan Continent, he doesn't have to stand in line by himself, several palace masters and those elders naturally put him in the Xuanyuan lineage.
This is also the reason why the Lord of the Third House and the Lord of the Fourth House are a little cold to him.
Wang Haochen's joining is naturally a good thing for Xuanyuan Palace, but when it comes to the inside, it is a huge pressure on the Holy Spirit.
The influence of an alchemy master in the sect will never be weaker than that of a realm master.
In fact, the six palace masters are also scoundrels, for the sake of the longevity of the sect, they naturally don't want to see such a fight, but the Xuanyuan Palace is too big, they can't pay attention to everything, although it is strictly ordered that the palace must not suppress the fight, but once it is among the disciples below, the battle will inevitably appear, even if they are powerless, in order not to chill the disciples who are on their side, they can only try to fight for their interests.
Although Wang Haochen had only entered Xuanyuan Palace for most of the day, the Heavenly Punishment System could probe everyone's information, and those elders in the sect had not avoided him in their conversations, so in such a short period of half a day, he already had a general understanding of the situation in Xuanyuan Palace.
He was classified into the Xuanyuan lineage, and Wang Haochen had no resistance, he was also from the Xuanyuan Continent, who would he help if he didn't help the Xuanyuan lineage?
"Elder Haochen, I heard that you also applied for the qualification to build a city?" an elder's voice rang out, and his voice was a little cold.
He is Luo Peng, the fourteenth elder of Xuanyuan Palace, he went out this time to compete for the qualification to build a city, with his strength, he is definitely nine out of ten, since he applied for the qualification to build a city, many people in the sect who are watching have no idea, otherwise, how can there be only four or five people participating in the battle.
In the past, every time the qualification for building a city was contested by hundreds of core disciples, only this time was the exception, because Luo Peng stepped in.
Wang Haochen only has true saint cultivation, Luo Peng naturally didn't pay attention to it, but when he heard that Wang Haochen learned that he had already participated, he insisted on participating in the competition, which made him a little unhappy, thinking that Wang Haochen not only didn't give him face, but directly didn't take him in his eyes.
"Yes!" Wang Haochen secretly complained in his heart, but he could only respond hard.
Now he, no matter what, is not Luo Peng's opponent.
"I'm just trying, it's rare to have the opportunity to see the strong people in the sect, it should be regarded as a broadening of my horizons, I know that my strength is low, and naturally there is no way to compete with Elder Luo. Wang Haochen said with a smile.
Elder Luo snorted lightly and stopped talking.
He just wanted to mention Wang Haochen, since Wang Haochen lowered his posture, he didn't want to chase and fight, after all, he would definitely have a time to ask Wang Haochen in the future.
"Yes, Elder Haochen's idea is very good, people are self-aware!" said another elder, his tone tinged with bitterness.
Wang Haochen turned his head slightly to look at the elder, and couldn't help but shake his head slightly in his heart.
That elder was an alchemist, before Wang Haochen came, he was the most powerful alchemist in Xuanyuan Palace, Wang Haochen's appearance naturally threatened his position in Xuanyuan Palace, and his mood was naturally not so good.
