Cultivation Online novel Chapter 1781

Chapter 1781 Alchemy Tower(2)

Upon entering the second floor, Yuan found himself in a vast research room with hundreds of Alchemists bustling about with scrolls and medicine in their grasp.

Yuan, still in his Shadow Veil, walked around like he owned the place. Due to how busy and focused everyone there was, Yuan was able to investigate the whole floor without any issues. Hell, he could even do jumping jacks in front of someone and they still wouldn't notice him.

It was almost as if Shadow Veil's effect was similar to the Celestial Emperor's curse, where it naturally made everyone oblivious to Yuan's existence.

This level of concealment was heaven-defying, and if the world knew of its existence, there would be wars to acquire it.

Through his observations on the second floor, Yuan quickly realized that everyone there was engaged in the process of creating new pill recipes. He also noticed that the recipes being developed were relatively basic, ranging from Tier 1 to Tier 2.

The next floor was the same as the second floor, but the pills being created were much more complex, ranging from Tier 3 to Tier 4.

This went on for the next several floors until he reached the 11th floor, where there were many rooms with closed doors. Yuan used his divine sense to peek inside these rooms to find Alchemists at work inside.

Not wanting to risk detection, Yuan took only quick glances into each room as he moved steadily from floor to floor.

The moment Yuan stepped onto the 30th floor, the atmosphere shifted drastically. The pristine environment of the lower levels was replaced by a grim, unsettling corridor lined with prison cells. The air felt heavy, and the dim lighting cast eerie shadows across the cold, grimy walls, starkly contrasting the clean and orderly nature of the floors below.

As Yuan peered into the prison cells, he saw live magical beasts confined within them. Considering the crucial role magical beast materials played in alchemy, it wasn't surprising for the Alchemy Tower to house such a facility.

From their skin to their nails, almost every part of a magical beast could be utilized in alchemy. Their blood, bones, fur, organs, and especially their monster core were valuable for crafting pills, elixirs, and other alchemical creations. Because of this, Yuan didn't find the magical beast prison to be anything out of the ordinary. They were simply no different from livestock.

As Yuan continued climbing the tower, the magical beasts grew increasingly rare and powerful. Unfortunately for them, every prison cell was enforced with Level 7 formations. They were so powerful that even Yuan would have difficulty dealing with them.

A pungent stench of blood suddenly assaulted Yuan's nose when he reached the 45th floor, causing him to frown. 'This isn't the scent of magical beasts…' Yuan thought to himself as he used his divine sense to check the prison cells.

Sure enough, imprisoned on the 45th floor were not magical beasts but humans.
