Becoming the Demon Lord: Taming the Demon Queen Begins

Chapter 200: Her name was Soraya

"Finally, it's happening!"

The crowd buzzed with excitement, their faces lighting up as more and more people gathered.

"That's Master Seraphis from the Southern Elixir Sect! He's a Level 5 Alchemist!"

"And look, Master Varrick is here too! Another Level 5 Alchemist!"

"Isn't that Sect Leader Vex from the Sigil Elixir Sect?"

Amidst the growing murmurs and exclamations, Timothy pieced together the situation from the conversations around him. Every year, an Alchemy Conference was held at the base of Battleforge Mountain, lasting three months.

But it was only in the final days that the real highlight of the event took place.

Top-tier alchemists from all over the world would gather to compete, crafting high-level elixirs in front of the crowd.

These elixirs were far beyond anything you could buy at the conference.

Aside from being auctioned off at the end, the three alchemists who crafted the most powerful elixirs would earn the right to participate in the ancient Alchemy Trial of Battleforge Mountain—a trial that had been passed down for countless millennia.

In front of practitioners from all over the world, they would challenge Battleforge Mountain with their elixirs!

The trial was shrouded in mystery and known to be incredibly difficult.

To this day, despite the countless alchemists who had come and gone, no one had ever succeeded in claiming the mountain's legacy or its rewards.

As for the legendary scene where the mountain supposedly splits open, unleashing the ancient inheritance with earth-shattering force—no one had ever witnessed it.

After all, that kind of legacy was beyond the reach of today's alchemists.

The alchemists at the front exchanged glances.

This competition had no rules, no time limits, and no restrictions.

The only goal was to craft the most extraordinary elixir and stand out from the rest.

Several alchemy furnaces were already set up, their soft aromas rising into the air as ingredients were tossed into the flames.

These elixirs were nothing like the ones displayed at the foot of the mountain.

Every alchemist who dared to step forward at this moment brimmed with confidence.

The elixirs they were crafting were rare, high-level creations that you couldn't easily buy anywhere.

As the fragrant scents filled the air, strange phenomena began to appear.

A soft glow spread out, and the onlookers couldn't help but gasp in awe at the sight.

The elixirs being crafted were at least Level 4.

Some were even reaching the coveted Level 5!

Once these elixirs were finished, you'd have to act fast to buy one.

Otherwise, they'd be snatched up by other sects, who came prepared with bags full of Mana Crystals.

"So, what do you think, kid? First time seeing an alchemist event like this? Pretty impressive, huh?"

A woman in a red dress, with an exotic flair to her appearance, smiled warmly.

Though she was explaining things, there was an unmistakable hint of arrogance in her tone.

"Eh, it's alright. Doesn't seem like anything special," Timothy replied casually, glancing at the scene.

"Alright?..."

The woman was momentarily taken aback.

Level 5 elixirs were treasures that sects would spend fortunes on, doing whatever it took to get their hands on them.

These alchemists, especially the Level 5 ones, were usually revered and untouchable, far above the common crowd.

If it weren't for the end of the Alchemy Conference and the chance to compete for the trial, these alchemists wouldn't even be here, showing off their skills.

"Alright?"

If Timothy had said that in front of the other practitioners, he would've been laughed out of the place!

"Hmph, whatever. Clearly, you don't know much about alchemy.

I bet you don't even know who I am," the woman said, her lips curling into a slight smirk as she looked at Timothy.

"Who are you? Never heard of you," Timothy replied, shaking his head indifferently.

"Wow, cold much.

Is it that I'm not charming enough for you, or...

Never mind. Once you find out who I am, you definitely won't be making that face.

After all, if it weren't for the fact that you're a bit more handsome than the average guy around here, you wouldn't even have the chance to talk to me~"

Her words dripped with confidence, and she made no effort to hide her smug, superior attitude.

"Oh, really? Now I'm actually curious to see who you are," Timothy said with a slight smile.

"No way, no way, does she really think she's more impressive than Goddess Sylvia? It's one thing to act like that in front of others, but to do it in front of Timothy..."

Azura, standing nearby, couldn't help but laugh in disbelief. Where did this woman get her confidence from?

But before she could finish her sentence, Timothy gently covered her mouth, his expression carrying a subtle smile, as if signaling her to let it go.

At that moment, the flames around the alchemy furnaces flared up and then suddenly died down. The furnaces were finally opened, revealing the freshly crafted elixirs inside.

The rich fragrance of the pills immediately filled the air, spreading across the base of Battleforge Mountain.

"That's the Scarlet Lotus Jade Pill, a Level 5 elixir!"

"And that one, the Blue Jade Refining Pill, it's also a Level 5 elixir!"

"Look at that Ninefold Rebirth Pill! My god, its quality might even be at the very top of Level 5!"

Exclamations echoed through the crowd as everyone's eyes widened in excitement. The scene before them was exactly what they had been waiting for—the true heart of the Alchemy Conference.

The most powerful alchemists had gathered here, and the elixirs they were crafting were treasures that most people could only dream of.

No one could imagine how any alchemist could possibly stand out in such a competitive environment.

"Hmph, just watch," the woman said smugly, casting a glance at Timothy before swaying her hips and weaving through the crowd. Her graceful, serpentine movements drew the attention of many onlookers as she made her way toward the alchemists and their furnaces, where the smoke was still rising.

The soft jingle of bells accompanied her steps, and her exotic red dress caught the eyes of many.

Suddenly, several practitioners, who had traveled far and wide and were well-versed in the world of alchemy, widened their eyes in shock.

"Wait... is that... Soraya from the Western Regions?"

"I've heard the rumors—she's a Level 6 Alchemist!"

"Yes, it's her! Soraya from the Western Regions is really here!"

At first, no one believed it, but as they took a closer look at the woman in red, the gasps of recognition spread through the crowd.

Even though many had never seen her in person, they had all heard the stories.

There was a genius alchemist from the Western Regions, known for her arrogance and disdain for others. But at the same time, her skills as a Level 6 Alchemist were unmatched.

Her name was Soraya, and she was known for wearing a red outfit that barely reached her midriff, with bells that jingled as she moved.

No one had expected her to actually show up at the Alchemy Conference on Battleforge Mountain!

"Looks like I'll be taking the top spot at today's Alchemy Conference," Soraya said with a smug smile, basking in the astonished gazes around her. She raised her hand, and a small alchemy furnace appeared in her palm.

"Today, I'll be crafting a Level 6 Dragon's Breath Elixir."
