The Immortal Wife Is Like A Cloud-Chapter 890: Focus
Zhou Daoqi’s voice was authoritative, and with his Immortal Lord-level aura, the entire plaza fell silent. However, the silence was soon replaced by unprecedented excitement.
There was no hesitation, and everything went smoothly. Most of the cultivators preferred things this way, straightforward and to the point.
“As for my introduction, there is no need,” Zhou Daoqi announced. “Now, all those who have passed the preliminary selection may proceed to the alchemy platforms in the order arranged.”
As the top elder of the Divine Dan Sect, Zhou Daoqi’s name had already resounded throughout the entire cultivation world. For him to preside over this event was a mark of its importance.
As soon as he finished speaking, he swung his black cane, and immense energy surged into the alchemy platforms arranged across the plaza.
In each surge of energy, one could sense the aura of the alchemists who were about to participate in the final selection. Over the course of the three-day break, the Divine Dan Sect had made all the necessary arrangements.
The sight of hundreds of thousands of alchemists’ auras rising into the air was nothing short of breathtaking.
Su Jingzhen’s expression showed a hint of surprise. He had initially thought that the process would be similar to the Northern Abyss Divine Sect event, where he would simply pick a platform.
However, what further astonished him was that he felt his designated position was in the center of the plaza, the most prominent spot where every spectator could clearly see him.
Around him, he could also sense the auras of Little Ling, Wang Yingying, and even Mu Qingshi, whom he had encountered earlier.
As Su Jingzhen realized this, the other attendees noticed it as well. The excitement in the crowd grew even more intense.
Over the past three days, everyone had learned about the presence of several dark horses in the competition. Almost everyone who sensed the existence of Dan Heart was met with high praise.
Of course, the favorite to win was still Su Jingzhen!

During the past two days of Su Jingzhen and Qiu Yaoyao’s intense battles, their names had already spread throughout Dan City and even some parts of the cultivation world.
He was known as the possessor of the Dan Heart and the heir to the Yunmeng Goddess, and these two titles had already gained considerable recognition.
Thanks to the efforts of those with ulterior motives, the news about him had been thoroughly leaked.
Most people knew that he came from the Four Waters Divine Realm and was already famous for his remarkable feats during the Four Waters Martial Arts Competition.
As always in the cultivation world, if something really happened, it couldn’t stay hidden for long. There were countless ways to leak such information.
“This is interesting. All the major contenders for the championship have gathered in one place. This will be worth watching,” someone commented.
“I wonder what kind of sparks will fly when all these people are together. It’s going to be a visual feast.”
“This is really worth the trip. Absolutely worth it.”
“…”
“Begin!”
As the crowd continued to roar with excitement, Zhou Daoqi gave another sharp command.
At that moment, numerous alchemists hidden among the crowd transformed into streaks of light and quickly made their way to their designated alchemy platforms.
The alchemy platforms were similar to those used for the preliminary and secondary selection. This time, however, there were no standard alchemy furnaces provided by the Divine Dan Sect.
To the left of Su Jingzhen was Wang Yingying, and to his right was Little Ling.
At this moment, Wang Yingying appeared to be quite excited. It seemed that as long as Su Jingzhen was by her side, she felt much more at ease and confident.
Over the past three days, Cheng Xian had clearly been instructing her, and while her exact level of alchemy was unknown, her confident demeanor suggested that she was at least proficient with fifth-grade pills.
Little Ling, on the other hand, seemed calm. She didn’t seem too worried about the first round of today’s competition.
Considering that she had casually created Heavenly Dragon Pill back at the estate, it was clear that alchemy was far too easy for her.
Standing in front of and behind Su Jingzhen were Mu Qingshi and a young, sophisticated scholar wearing a blue robe. Among the people surrounding them, the auras they emitted were all quite extraordinary.
At this moment, most of them had immediately released their Dan Heart without hesitation.
Although none of them had a Dan Heart as advanced as Su Jingzhen’s, most of them were close to fully manifesting theirs.
Many of them had Mingling Dan Hearts, Kongling Dan Hearts, or similar high-level forms.
Not far from Su Jingzhen’s position, a young man in a green robe turned to look at him. A faint smile appeared at the corners of his lips.
“This must be the famous Su Jingzhen,” he muttered. “It seems the Divine Dan Sect has great confidence in him.”
Indeed, it was clear to everyone that Su Jingzhen had been placed in the central, most prestigious position in the seating arrangement.
This was the Divine Dan Sect’s subtle way of ranking the alchemists who had passed the preliminary rounds.
“Heh, you can be arrogant for now, but those who wear the crown must bear its weight. With such a prominent position, if you fail later, it’ll be quite a spectacle,”
Mu Qingshi said with a cold smile, a trace of jealousy flickering in his eyes.
Of course, he remained confident as always, convinced that he would be the one to laugh last.
As the alchemists in the square gave Su Jingzhen looks of jealousy, envy, or contempt, the countless spectators surrounding the square also fixed their gaze on him.
Being watched by over a hundred million eyes was no easy task. Although Su Jingzhen maintained his composure, he couldn’t help but feel the weight of the attention pressing down on him.
“Seems like I’m more suited for a low profile,” Su Jingzhen thought to himself.
At that moment, Zhou Daoqi, who was hovering high in the air, spoke again.
“The first round of the competition has no complicated rules. You need to bring your own alchemy furnace and ingredients. The only requirement is to refine a pill of Fifth Grade or higher, and the quality must be above average. That’s all. Begin!”
As soon as the words left his mouth, a wave of energy swept through the square.
In the next instant, an energy barrier rose around each alchemy platform, extending five meters outward.
These barriers were extremely powerful, designed to protect the alchemists and prevent interference during the refining process.
With everything in place, the alchemists, including Su Jingzhen, wasted no time. Each of them had already decided which pill they would refine. The ingredients and furnaces were quickly brought out.
Since the Divine Dan Sect did not provide these tools, the choice of the furnace itself became another form of competition.
As soon as Su Jingzhen brought out his Flying Snow Divine Furnace, it immediately became the center of attention once again.
“This… this is the Flying Snow Divine Furnace, ranked sixth in the Divine Furnace Ranking!”
