Chapter 2332: The Ancestor of the Dao of Alchemy!

"Ye Yuan pioneered the Dao of Alchemy, a great sage for all eternity! Today, he shall be enfeoffed as an ancestor!"

"Today's exposition of the Dao blesses myriad generations! If Ye Yuan is not enfeoffed as an ancestor, heaven and reason will not tolerate it!"

…

No one objected to Ye Yuan being enfeoffed as an ancestor.

Perhaps those of low cultivation did not understand the significance of this exposition of the Dao, but these old ancestors deeply knew how far-reaching its influence was.

Before this, the Dao of Alchemy among both humans and demons was scattered and disordered.

One could say it was like hitting here and there with a hammer.

You comprehend your Dao, I refine my pills.

Even the Medicine Ancestor could not distill it into a mature cultivation system.

But Ye Yuan had done it!

Not only had he done it, but he also exposed his cultivation insights to all, showing them to everyone.

This merit was unprecedented and unmatched!

A year of exposition, a contribution for a thousand autumns.

For these old ancestor-level powerhouses, each person's gains were immeasurable.

Once they went into seclusion for a time, their strength would advance by leaps and bounds.

Especially the Saint Ancestor High Priest; Ye Yuan's exposition opened a new door for him.

Given time, as long as he digested Ye Yuan's teachings, he had confidence to surpass the Medicine Ancestor!

The millions of alchemy powerhouses present were breaking through in droves.

Several eight-star divine alchemists stuck at the peak of the Ancestor Realm for years even faintly sensed the signs of touching the Dao Pill.

Before long, a large number of alchemy powerhouses would emerge from among them!

Ye Yuan swept his gaze over the crowd below and sighed inwardly.

Time!

What he lacked most now was time!

He needed time to grow, and these alchemy powerhouses also needed time to grow.

But the Divine Race would not give him that time.

At this moment, the Saint Ancestor High Priest raised his hands to the sky and declared loudly: "The Demon Race's Sacrificial Priest Hall today honors Ye Yuan as the Ancestor of the Dao of Alchemy!"

"The Human Race's Tianlan Realm honors Ye Yuan as the Ancestor of the Dao of Alchemy!"

"The Human Race's Jiuchao Realm honors Ye Yuan as the Ancestor of the Dao of Alchemy!"

…

These old ancestors' voices shook the heavens, resounding through the universe.

All the old ancestor-level powerhouses jointly honored Ye Yuan as an ancestor!

After the old ancestors came those eight-star peak alchemy powerhouses.

"The Zitan Dojo honors Ye Yuan as the Ancestor of the Dao of Alchemy!"

"The Qichen Dojo honors Ye Yuan as the Ancestor of the Dao of Alchemy!"

…

Every one who spoke was a leading authority in the alchemy world, their words carrying great weight.

So many supreme powerhouses jointly honoring Ye Yuan showed that this exposition of the Dao had convinced the entire alchemy world.

Those alchemists of low status still did not understand what was happening.

But so many big shots suddenly honoring Ye Yuan as an ancestor shocked them deeply.

"My heavens, what is going on? So many pillars of the alchemy world jointly honor the sub-sage as an ancestor!"

"The sub-sage only recently became a Heavenly Emperor, and now he is enfeoffed as an ancestor?"

"And this is no ordinary enfeoffment! Even the Medicine Ancestor did not receive such treatment!"

…

Ye Yuan's enfeoffment as an ancestor was different from other old ancestors.

To become an old ancestor-level powerhouse, one had to be at least a supreme being of the third or fourth decline of the Heavenly Human stage.

Even those at the first or second decline were not qualified to be called ancestors.

But Ye Yuan, who had only recently become a Heavenly Emperor and whose strength was only comparable to a second-level Heavenly Emperor, was now jointly honored as an ancestor by so many supreme beings!

Jointly honored as an ancestor!

That is to say, all alchemy powerhouses, including the Saint Ancestor High Priest, bowed their heads before Ye Yuan!

Ye Yuan, the Ancestor of the Dao of Alchemy, stood above all old ancestors!

This scene had an extremely strong sense of ceremony.

Powerhouses who could be called ancestors all had their own pride.

These old ancestors admitted that the Medicine Ancestor was strong, but they would not honor him as the ancestor above ancestors.

You are strong, that is your business, not mine.

But today, they set aside the pride of an old ancestor for Ye Yuan.

Such a thing had never happened since ancient times!

A mere Heavenly Emperor actually stood above all old ancestors.

Such a thing was terrifying to think about.

They did not understand, but they knew these old ancestors were not fools.

For these proud old ancestors to bow their heads, Ye Yuan's exposition of the Dao must have extraordinary significance.

Their realms were too low to perceive the profundity within.

But they understood that they had witnessed the arrival of a new era in the alchemy world!

From now on, the Medicine Ancestor would become a thing of the past, replaced by the Ancestor of the Dao of Alchemy—Ye Yuan!

In the crowd, Danyu sighed in disappointment and said to Yun Yi beside him: "Yi'er, I apologize to you! Times have changed; facts have proven that your choice was right! I was too short-sighted."

In the battle of Yunxin Realm, under Ye Yuan's protection, Danyu narrowly escaped with his life.

He had contended with Ye Yuan for over a thousand years, and now that Ye Yuan was enfeoffed as an ancestor, he realized how laughable that was.

With his realm, he could not fully understand Ye Yuan's exposition.

But he vaguely understood that Ye Yuan had truly done something earth-shattering.

Not to mention Ye Yuan, even his own junior had now completely surpassed him in alchemy.

He had personally seen how those renowned big shots behaved humbly before Yun Yi.

Such existences he had never even dared to imagine before.

Yun Yi glanced at him and smiled: "Great-grandfather, what are you saying? You raised and nurtured Yi'er; Yi'er will always remember that. Yi'er never blamed you, so you need not worry. Actually, I followed my master only to seek a higher level of alchemy. But I never expected my master to reach this point; it truly feels like a dream!"

Danyu felt ashamed inside.

He knew that if not for Yun Yi's sake, Ye Yuan would have long destroyed the Yundan Imperial Capital.

With Ye Yuan's current strength, destroying the Yundan Imperial Capital was nothing.

Zhuoyun Heavenly Emperor probably would not even dare to fart!

High in the void, Ye Yuan's expression was calm, unmoved by favor or disgrace.

He was indeed somewhat surprised by the old ancestors' actions, but he knew he deserved it.

What surprised him was that these old ancestors would set aside their pride and honor another as ancestor.

In the hundred-year pill duel with the Medicine Ancestor, Ye Yuan had truly probed the power of rules.

Although that thread of rule power was extremely ethereal, it was infinitely beneficial to him.

At that moment, he finally integrated all his learning, leading to today's exposition.

Ye Yuan swept his gaze below and said calmly: "That day in Yunxin Realm, you all must have understood somewhat. The human race's alchemy has long declined, even the Divine Race looks down on it! Since you all honor me as an ancestor, then set aside sectarian biases and expose your own insights to the masses, so everyone can progress together!"

The Divine Race was extremely wary of human alchemy, but in the last epoch, those alchemy supremacies all fell for the human race.

Now, even a fellow like Yuan Wei could look down on human alchemy.

As long as alchemy rose, it would surely play a key role in the great war between humans and gods.

What he lacked was still time!

"I humbly obey the words of Ancestor Ye! After Ancestor Ye departs, I will expose the Dao!" said the Saint Ancestor High Priest, cupping his hands.

"We obey the words of Ancestor Ye!"

"We obey the words of Ancestor Ye!"

…

All the old ancestors responded in unison to Ye Yuan's words.
