Chapter 128: The Bell Of The Alchemy Association
The Alchemy Association.
This was the highest mountain peak. The white clouds were leisurely and unchanging. Under the sky, it was as if one could reach out and grab the stars and the moon. The immortal crane flapped its wings and shuttled through the blue sky and white clouds. Finally, it stopped at this beautiful and beautiful place.
Beside the cliff, there was a welcoming pine tree. Its growth rings were densely packed. It had been through countless storms and snow. Its color was verdant, as if it was a treasure in the depths of the forest. It also carried the aura of time. It was as if the passing of time was just a snap of the fingers to it.
The most surprising thing was that there was an old man sitting cross-legged on the pine tree. Although the pine tree had gone through thousands of years, its branches and leaves were not thick. It would be somewhat difficult for it to bear the weight of a child much less an old man.
This old man was the president of the Alchemy Association, He Qingyuan.
The wind blew, and it swayed the branches, but the old man did not move at all. It was as if he was walking on flat ground. There was clearly a precipice hundreds of thousands of feet below him, and if he fell down, he would be in danger of being crushed into pieces. It was really frightening to watch.
However, he had a calm expression. He closed his eyes as if he was taking a nap, as if he was deep in a secluded forest. That kind of calm and bearing was not something that an ordinary person could compare to. However, the aura around him was ordinary. Lin Bai could not sense any fluctuations of spiritual power.
Suddenly, the old man opened his eyes abruptly. Rays of bright light flashed in his eyes, as if they could pierce through countless layers of clouds and land directly at the location of the forbidden area.
The old man should have been peaceful and aloof from worldly affairs. However, at this moment, he was like a calm sea that suddenly stirred up huge waves. Even the entire mountain peak was affected and became restless.
“Who is it? !”
As soon as his voice fell, the wind stirred and the clouds surged. Anger surged in his eyes, causing the pine beneath him to tremble even more violently. It made people wonder if it would break in the next second.
Even the immortal crane at the side was frightened. It hurriedly spread its wings and flew into the blue sky. After that, it turned into a small black dot and disappeared.
However, He Qingyuan’s anger could not be dissipated just like that. A huge amount of spiritual energy swept over like an incomparably sharp sword. It abruptly hacked at the mountain rocks beside it. The incomparably solid rock body suddenly shattered and dissipated in the air.
Looking closely at the furious He Qingyuan, there was an imperceptible fear in his eyes. It was as if he was afraid of something. What exactly was it that could cause the elders of the Alchemist Association to reveal such an expression?
The wind on the mountain top blew He Qingyuan’s white robe, causing it to flutter. He was clearly supposed to be a sage-like person, but at this moment, he was like an angry vajra. He flung his sleeves.
A streak of spiritual power rushed out and crashed into a pavilion not far away. There was an ancient bell hanging there. After experiencing countless storms, the color of the ancient bell had long been changed
“Dang –”
The melodious and dull bell suddenly rang, like a bolt of lightning that struck heavily on everyone’s bodies. This bell sound was extremely penetrating. Even those who were meditating were instantly woken up with a dazed look in their eyes. No one knew what had happened.
Immediately after, the sound of the bell became even more urgent. It was like the sound of a soul-stirring, life-reaping bell. It struck the hearts of the people one after another, causing them to feel somewhat anxious and uneasy.
They had never seen such a grand display of power. Even the last time the Alchemist Association was attacked, it had never happened before.
“What is that sound? It seems to be the sound of a bell?”
“What’s going on?”
For a moment, everyone in the Alchemist Association stopped what they were doing. Even if they were in the middle of refining pills and were about to reach the pill formation stage. They would have to stop even if the pill would be destroyed
The first rule in the Alchemist Association was also the most eye-catching one. It made everyone remember that whenever the bell rang, everyone had to stop everything, no matter how important it was.
Those who didn’t know the truth walked out of the room and saw the people next to them rushing toward the meeting hall with hurried expressions.
Only the older generation knew that this bell would only be rung when something important happened. Moreover, the people who rang it were all of high status.
Many elders had worried expressions on their faces. It had been a long time since they had heard such a bell. They remembered that the last time was when the Alchemist Association was on the brink of death.
“What exactly happened? Could it be that someone has broken into the Alchemist Association?”
“I don’t know. Who has the guts to cause trouble for The Alchemist Association? Are they tired of living?”
The huge meeting hall was filled with people. Everyone was whispering. The older generation had solemn faces. They knew the importance of the bell chime and were ready for battle.
The younger generation had never seen such a battle. They were whispering to each other, and there was an inexplicable atmosphere spreading among the crowd. It made people restless, as if something big was going to happen soon.
Soon, a white light flashed, and He Qingyuan’s figure appeared in the middle. Everyone gasped.
It was the president of the Alchemist Association!
“What happened? Even the president was alarmed. You have to know that the president has been in closed-door cultivation for many years and has rarely appeared in front of people.”
A long time ago, He Qingyuan had been in closed-door cultivation at the peak. All the affairs in the association had been handed over to the vice president and a few other respected elders to manage.
Now, even he had come out of closed-door cultivation. It could be imagined that this matter was of great importance. It was far more serious than they had imagined.
He Qingyuan cut to the chase and forbade him from getting straight to the point, “Someone has broken into the forbidden area.”
In the crowd, Zhong Haoran, Qian Ran, and the others’ expressions changed slightly. They could not help but guess that it was Lin Bai who had entered the forbidden area. However, he was just a small fry. Even if he had broken into the forbidden area, it would not be a big deal. How could He Qingyuan be alarmed.
Zhong Haoran was fine, but Qian Ran and the others’ faces were slightly pale.
