Life After Prison

Chapter 1924
A successful breakthrough to sixth–grade alchemist would give her a chance to challenge Severin for the position of the sixth
core disciple!
When Emery returned to the Alchemy Tower, the surrounding disciples immediately looked over to her.
“She’s going back in!”
“Gasp! She probably feels that her position is under threat. I think she’s aiming to clear the fifth floor and
reach the sixth!”
“I can’t wait to see who edges the other in the contest.”
As Emery entered the Alchemy Tower again, she noticed the number of recipes annotated to his name on the stone monument
had increased from the original 927 to 928! The narrowing gap left all the disciples
in shock. Any discerning observer could see that Severin was less than ten recipes away from surpassing Emery! Once he did,
his name would then rise above hers, and he would then third place in the Alchemy
Tower’s rankings!
There was no shortage of amazement and awe from the surrounding disciples. In the six months since he entered the Alchemy
Tower, Severin had not reached the fifth floor and closed in on Emery’s achievements.
One of the disciples intended to convey that news to Emery, but with the outside world had been cut off temporarily after she
reentered the Alchemy Tower.
Meanwhile, Severin’s eyes were bloodshot like an addict suffering from withdrawal symptoms. As he observed the increasing
number of pill recipes approved by the Alchemy Tower, he took a deep breath and said, “I’ve succeeded with nine hundred and
twenty–seven pills. That’s about seventy more to go before I can progress to the sixth level and become a sixth–grade
alchemist!”
He had not anticipated that the fifth floor’s assessment would be that challenging! Even in light of his status as a fifth–grade
high–rank alchemist, the current count of 927 alchemy recipes was already starting to put a huge strain on him. The assessment

on the fifth floor involved spirit beast materials rather than traditional plant–based materials, which necessitated the alchemist to
incorporate the attributes of the spirit beasts into each pill.
Severin did not grow up in the Bleurealm, and he had only grasped the technique of using spirit beast materials to create pills
after arriving in Nontwo City. The Journey he embarked on within the Alchemy Tower significantly expanded Severin’s knowledge
of alchemy–he had learned the properties of various pills, deduced pill compositions, and utilized many spirit beast materials.
Not one to back down in the face of challenges, he only grew more determined when faced with all those hurdles. After regaining
his composure, he resumed his efforts and he employed his knowledge to
deduce new pill recipes based on his prior alchemical insights.
His bloodshot eyes gradually began to radiate an unprecedented look of perseverance. The number of recipes in front of him
continued to increase, bringing him closer to the target of one thousand pills.
