Steward’s Residence, Fushang City.
Xuanyuan Qi, Johns, Kitazawa Hinata, and the other Inheritors from the six servers all looked at the live stream.
Kitazawa Hinata looked at Jiang Feng and asked suspiciously, “What does he want to do? Pharmacist Competition? Is he that free?”
Xuanyuan Qi shook his head and said, “While I didn’t interact much with him, I do know that there is a motive behind everything he does. He must have his own plans. I hope that he will not threaten the Divines!”
“What motive? My guess is that he only wants to gather a group of Pharmacists as well as winning over the people’s support to strengthen the Shifter faction,” Johns snorted. “If I am correct, some of you here have a Donghuang Bell fragment. As long as he hasn’t collected all of them, he would not be able to command the monsters in the game. Even if he could, he could only command some of them. He cannot be compared with either the Divines or the Infernals in terms of manpower. That is why he is doing all of this. It is only natural for him to do so!”
The Shifter faction had indeed become stronger, but there would only be around 500,000 of them.
Even if they had a lot of monsters with them, they meant nothing if he could not control them.
But the Divines and the Infernals were different.
Both factions were formed by intelligent races. When the Great Divine-Infernal War began, all those from their own factions would come to their aid with one command from the leader. Their numbers were immense—at least at the tens of millions. The Shifter faction could not be compared to them.
They believed that the reason that Jiang Feng started the Pharmacist Competition was to win the hearts of some more players so that they could strengthen the Shifter Faction.

Xue Yingqi, Xue Haifeng, Heifeng, Yanhu, Xiao Longnu and the others were also watching the livestream back in Mechanus.
While they did not know the exact reason why Jiang Feng had started the competition, it was still quite enjoyable in terms of sight to be able to see such a large Pharmacist Competition.
The Ancient City of the Shifter Emperor.
When Jiang Feng saw that all the Pharmacists were ready, he stood up and roared, “The competition begins now!”
After that, he sat on the Tianyao Furnace and looked at all the Pharmacists that had begun to prepare their ingredients. He was in no rush.
Whoosh!
All the participants took out their furnaces and started the fires, and prepared to create their pills.
The entire scene was quite majestic when hundreds and thousands of furnaces all gave rise to flames at the same time. Perhaps it was the fire, it had stirred the passions of many of the players.
Many of the Pharmacists were thinking of what kind of pills to make. Other than the burning flames, none of the Pharmacists had begun to make their pills.
Only after two minutes did some people begin to create their pills.
When they saw that someone had already started, more Pharmacists began to enter the group and started making pills.
Ding. System Prompt. Three-Eyed Toad disqualified!
Ding. System Prompt. Ant In A Pan disqualified!
…
As they began to make pills, some of the players that did not actually spend much time making pills and were only here for the sake of it had already wasted three portions of ingredients after the competition started, and they had been immediately disqualified.
The Pharmacists that had been disqualified were sent to the safe area outside of the plaza.
Whoosh!
After a few more minutes, almost half of the Pharmacists had been disqualified. It no longer looked so packed with Pharmacists on the ten plazas.
There were some more Pharmacists being disqualified after some time, but the speed at which they were being disqualified had become much slower.
Many of the players had already purified the liquified herbs, and they were consolidating it as the final step.
If they were to succeed with the consolidation, then they would have a chance to step up in rank. If they were to fail, they would be disqualified immediately.
Screech!
At this time, a Phoenix’s call could be heard from a plaza not far from Jiang Feng where only one female contestant stood.
Jiang Feng and all the players looked at her.
There was only one female player on that plaza. That was the plaza for the Archmaster Pharmacist, but there was only one Archmaster Pharmacist. Yumo. Jiang Feng did not even need to check her information to know that she was Yumo.
He then saw that Yumo was standing on a fan and adding ingredients into a furnace that was around five meters tall. As the ingredients were added into the furnace, the furnace began to be filled with the scent of medicine.
And what astonished everyone was that after every few seconds, a phoenix’s phantom would fly from the furnace and unleash a phoenix’s cry.
“Hm? Not bad. She is attempting the Sacred Level pill called the Phoenix Blood Pill!”
Jiang Feng did not expect that this Pharmacist called Yumo would have the courage to make a Sacred Level pill in a place like this despite only being an Archmaster level Pharmacist!
But after giving it a thought, he understood what her game was. She was the only Archmaster Pharmacist in this place.
The reason that she was trying to create a Sacred Rank Pill on her first attempt was that if she were to succeed, she could then get his attention. If she were to fail, she could then use the remaining two chances and create an Archmaster level pill. Regardless, she would still be the champion of the Archmaster rank.
Bang! Bang!
As many of the Pharmacists that were creating their pills had forgotten to control the heat of their flames thanks to Yumo distracting them, their alchemical furnace broke apart and they failed.
“Ah, right. No time to pay attention to them anymore. I should begin as well!”
He had no idea how long the competition was going to take, but he had no time to simply sit there and watch. He still had other matters to attend to.
And that was creating the Providence Pill.
The Providence Pill was a Heavenly Saint level pill. Disregarding its difficulty, just creating the pills alone would take a very long time.
He only had around ten hours left. He had to make haste.
“Ha!”
He polymorphed into his silver-hair red-eyes form and then stepped on the Somersault Cloud. With a wave of his hands, countless herbal ingredients flew out from the Lianyao Flask and fell around the Tianyao Furnace.
In a short while, the Tianyao Furnace was buried within the herbal ingredients that had formed hills around it.
“Rise!”
He yelled out coldly as the Tianyao Furnace flew into the air and kept on increasing in size, and it only stopped after it was around 30 meters in diameters.
He took out the book that recorded the way to create the Providence Pill and gave it a few more reads. He took a deep breath and put it away, then began to create the Providence Pill.
“In order to create the Heavenly Saint Pill, one needs to liquify all the herbs according to their properties, and then consolidate them. If I use Pharmacy during this process, I will immediately fail. Let us begin!” After saying that, he jumped to the top of the Tianyao Furnace.
“Ghost-White Heavenly Ice-Fire!”
Whoosh!
A white flame appeared underneath the Tianyao Furnace. The moment that the flames appeared, all the flames that were burning in the other alchemical furnaces all “bowed” toward the Ghost-White Heavenly Ice-Fire, and that moment had shocked many of the Pharmacists.
Whoosh!
As he waited for the furnace to become hot, Jiang Feng waved his hand and dozens of herbs were dropped into the Tianyao Furnace.

“What?! The Shifter Emperor himself wants to create pills? But what kind of pill does he want to create with so many ingredients?”
Just as Jiang Feng was creating the Providence Pill, many of the bosses and inheritors that were looking at the livestream could only mumble to themselves in shock when they looked at the ingredients stacking to the size of a small hill, and then looked at Jiang Feng who was already starting to create his pills.
