Supreme Warrior in the City
Chapter 1894 - 1893: Three Palaces
Su Yang looked at the guardian's shocked expression, realizing that there were some flaws in his previous words.
Obviously, the Divine Master is more focused on the matters within the World Melting Furnace. In other words, no matter what happens outside, no matter how severe the situation is, the Divine Master will not abandon the matters within the World Melting Furnace.
If Su Yang claimed that the Divine Master was going to transfer people out of the World Melting Furnace, it would definitely arouse this guardian's suspicion. After all, the guardian was well aware of the situation inside, and the Divine Master was not likely to transfer people out.
So, Su Yang hurriedly said, "You're overthinking, how could the Divine Master transfer people from here. What I mean is, if the situation outside becomes dire to a certain extent, the Divine Master might abandon the Human Realm and temporarily transfer everyone into the World Melting Furnace to hide for a while."
"I see!" The guardian came to a realization, having had some doubts before about how the Divine Master could transfer people from here.
Now, with Su Yang's explanation, his doubts disappeared. If the situation becomes uncontrollable, the Divine Master will definitely abandon the Human Realm and will certainly not affect the progress within the World Melting Furnace.
Su Yang secretly rejoiced, lucky that he didn't speak too much earlier; otherwise, he wouldn't have known how to smooth things over.
"By the way, how is the progress now?" Su Yang approached the guardian, glanced inside, giving a vague expression to the guardian.
The guardian paused for a moment but then understood and whispered, "The Divine Master doesn't allow this matter to be casually discussed..."
"I understand." Su Yang quickly smiled, "It's just that I'm curious; the situation outside is too complicated. Ah, I really hope things can succeed quickly inside!"
"Of course!" The guardian chuckled, saying, "Mr. Fang, you should go and recuperate first. Feel free to choose any of the three halls inside; we won't escort you."
Su Yang felt somewhat regretful as he wanted to ask the guardian more secrets. However, the guardian issued an implicit dismissal, making it clear it was unlikely he could ask further questions.
"Alright then, I'll handle my injuries first!" Su Yang nodded and walked forward.
The entrance was by the lakeside, not far from there was a forest. In the forest, three simple palaces could be faintly seen, presumed to have been erected recently.
On his way, Su Yang encountered some guardians, but they did not stop him, and Su Yang didn't engage in conversation with them.
Clearly, as long as the guardians at the entrance did not hinder him, the subsequent guardians would not either.
Arriving at the three palaces, Su Yang took a closer look; names were inscribed above each palace.
The one in the middle was labeled as Divine Palace, likely the Divine Master's quarters.
The one on the left was labeled Spirit Palace, its meaning unclear. And the one on the right bore the words Dan Palace.
After some thought, Su Yang chose the Dan Palace.
The Divine Palace might be the Divine Master's quarters; Su Yang wasn't aware of the situation inside. Possibly, there were taboos inside, and entering directly would be extremely dangerous. So, entering the Divine Palace was the least appropriate option.
As for the Spirit Palace, Su Yang was unsure of its situation, so it was wise not to venture in carelessly.
However, the Dan Palace on the right was more understandable to Su Yang. The Dan Palace, being about Elixir Pills, presumably housed the Divine Master's Elixir Room.
Since Su Yang was unclear about the situation inside, he had claimed to the guardian that he entered due to injuries and needed healing, hence had to proceed to the Dan Palace to find Elixir Pills first. Thus, starting with the Dan Palace was the most suitable choice.
Moreover, Su Yang himself was an Elixir Master. Entering the Dan Palace allowed him to further understand the Divine Master's circumstances.
The Dan Palace wasn't large. Upon entering, Su Yang smelled a strong scent of Elixir Pills. Undoubtedly, he had chosen correctly; this was indeed the place for alchemy.
A man rushed over, bowed respectfully, and said, "Sir, what do you need?"
Su Yang glanced at the man, whose level was merely at the Venerable Realm, showing moderate strength. Facing someone like Fang Zishu, it was natural for him to be very respectful.
"I'm injured and need some Elixir Pills." Su Yang feigned aloofness, noting that people here ranked each other by strength. Pretending to be Fang Zishu, a master, he must display some arrogance to avoid exposing his bluff.
The man showed no doubt, quickly responding, "Sir, please follow me."
The man walked ahead, with Su Yang following, mainly observing the surroundings.
This hall occupied a substantial area, about a thousand square meters on the first floor. The middle of the hall was spacious, but nearby were many small rooms, with faint heat and the scent of Elixir Pills emerging from them. These rooms were likely the alchemy rooms.
At a glance, there seemed to be around twenty small rooms, each engaging in alchemy. Su Yang sniffed around; the Elixir Pills being produced were quite varied, though all were rare Elixir Pills, with materials only found within the World Melting Furnace.
Su Yang was shocked, realizing that his understanding of the Divine Master was not extensive enough. The Divine Master knew numerous methods of alchemy, truly an extraordinary individual!
Most startling to Su Yang was how the Divine Master sourced so many alchemists.
It was notable that the Elixir Pills being made here weren't ordinary pills; they were exceptionally rare ones. Such pills were challenging to concoct; not anyone could produce them merely by knowing the techniques, requiring seasoned alchemists.
Given so many alchemy rooms, there had to be numerous alchemists working within. But where did the Divine Master find so many alchemists?
Amidst his doubts, the man led Su Yang to the second floor, arriving outside a room.
"Sir, please take a look inside this alchemy room. If you don't find the needed Elixir Pills, we'll visit another one!" the man said respectfully.
Su Yang felt his curiosity piqued; he could continue visiting other alchemy rooms? This time, he should thoroughly explore here to see how many alchemy rooms and Elixir Pills there were.
Entering the alchemy room, Su Yang surveyed; numerous rare Elixir Pills were present. These pills couldn't be produced in the Human Realm yet were abundant here.
Su Yang kept a straight face, pretending not to locate his desired Elixir Pills, and continued letting the man lead him to another alchemy room.
