《Monarch of Time》Chapter 24 Conflict in the 'Alchemists' Guild'
Advertisement
As soon as Shun Long entered the 'Alchemists' Guild' his nose was assaulted by the fragrance of freshly made pills. His body slightly twitched and his pores opened as if they were trying to breathe the medicinal essence in the air.
A young girl around 18 years old approached Shun Long, her aura was at the early rank 8 of qi circulation. Her face wasn't that pretty but her big boobs and curvy buttocks made every young man who saw her feel a heat on his crotch. Her yellow robes were tightly wrapped around her body, accentuating her curves even further.
As she bowed at Shun Long her cleavage was partly exposed which made Shun Long's body to start heating up as she said
''Welcome junior brother, do you need a cauldron or medicinal ingredients? My name is Jing Fei and I am here to help you. Our 'Alchemists' Guild' has everything you will need.''
In every important building, there were some cultivators responsible for receiving and guiding guests, and obviously this girl was one of them.
Shun Long then said
''I'm here to take the rank 1 alchemist examination.''
When he finished his sentence the woman's expression changed into one of disdain as she said with a mocking look on her face
''Hey kid, do you know how many people take the rank 1 examination every day? More than 300 people. From those 300 people, less than 1 percent pass. Have you ever studied alchemy before? Ahh, I can't be bothered with you just scram to the reception over there if you want to apply for the examination.''
Her tone had changed all of a sudden from the friendly senior sister to an annoyed shrew as if Shun Long was wasting part of her precious time.
Shun Long said in an annoyed tone

''It's your job to guide guests and yet you are this rude and irritable. Your face is unpleasing to the eye, to say the least, and your only redeeming quality is your body. Then again I'm sure that I entered the 'Alchemists' Guild' not a brothel so I'm not exactly sure what you are doing here showing your boobs to your guests.
Sadly I don't sleep with sluts, who knows how many people have already used you down there. I wouldn't touch your filthy body even if you begged me.''
Then without taking a second look at this annoying woman who had already ruined his mood, Shun Long walked towards the reception to register himself.
Just then the woman behind him screamed as she said
''Wait. You are not allowed to take part in the examination anymore.''
Shun Long's eyebrows were raised as he looked at her and his gaze suddenly turned cold and piercing as he was about to speak but an authoritative voice was heard from behind him that said
''If she said you are not allowed to take the exam then you won't take the exam. Scram out of the Guild.''
An obese man around his fifties with a belly so big that he resembled a rugby ball appeared behind Shun Long and Jing Fei. His clothes were white, exclusive only to alchemists inside the sect. The man wasn't exactly short, but because of how big his belly was, he truly resembled a rugby ball.
''Alchemist Bu'' the woman exclaimed in an overjoyed tone as she rushed towards the man and linked her arms with his.
Then she looked at Shun Long as she said in an impatient tone
''Didn't you hear Alchemist Bu? He told you to scram kid!''
Shun Long was extremely angry at this point.

First, he comes to the 'Alchemists' Guild to take a test, then he gets verbally attacked by an aggressive shrew, and then a fat rugby ball had come to abuse him.
Shun Long's eyes turned red as he unleashed his aura of a peak rank 6 qi condensation. This time he had truly unleashed his aura, unlike the time he fought with Xiao Shitou where he had only unleashed an aura in the middle of rank 6 in qi condensation.
Jing Fei was happy that Shun Long was only at the peak of rank 6 as she hadn't used her spiritual strength earlier to probe him.
Although she could feel a suppressive effect from Shun Long's aura, she didn't pay much attention to it as she was already more than a full minor realm stronger than Shun Long.
She then walked forward as she said
''Elder Bu watch as I teach this kid a lesson.''
''What do you mean by 'elder bu'? FeiFei, how many times have I told you to simply call me Duyi?
Don't worry, just let me take care of this brat for you.'' Alchemist Bu said in an endearing tone, as the fat on his face jiggled every time he opened his mouth.
However, Jing Fei didn't listen to Alchemist Bu as she rushed to attack Shun Long.
She already knew what Bu Duyi wanted if he were to help her, and she wasn't willing to pay that price just to handle a small rank 6 qi condensation rookie.
However, Jing Fei had really underestimated Shun Long.
His aura had exploded and Jing Fei was stopped in her tracks, but that wasn't the end of it.
Shun Long then unleashed his 'Monarch's Domain' as well, but he didn't target Alchemist Bu as he knew that their difference in cultivation was at far too big of a level to cover.
Alchemist Bu had an aura at the late stages of the earth grade, the difference in both their quality and their quantity of their qi couldn't even be mentioned together.
But Jing Fei was a different matter altogether.
In front of the 'Monarch's Domain', with less than 2 minor levels of difference between them, she was incapable of even opening her mouth in front of Shun Long.
Shun Long appeared in front of a terrified Jing Fei who couldn't move a single muscle, and his left hand slapped down on her face with so much force, that as it fell on her cheek, bones were heard breaking from the impact.
Alchemist Bu's aura then completely exploded as he recovered himself from his stupor.
He couldn't understand how could Jing Fei be beaten so badly by Shun Long, but he knew that it was now his chance to get revenge for her as well as having her owe him at the same time.
Bu Duyi had arrived in front of Shun Long in the blink of an eye, as he clenched his hand tightly before punching Shun Long straight on his chest.
Shun Long's body flew backwards as it collided with the wall behind him, before vomiting a mouthful of blood.

Discovering Magic
“Venture into your mind and into a new world, one where there is Magic. Magic that is nascent and unexplained, one where you can be the one to Discover it, by delving dark dungeons or examining magical Beasts, by studying ancient scrolls or by finding lost gods, your Imagination is the only limit.” This is what Mike thought he was getting into when he lay down to play a new VR game, but fate had another thing in store for him, he was whisked away to a new world in another Dimension, with an AI fused to his body that refuses to let him treat this world as a game, all the while trying to make it as much like a game as it can. The only Objective he is given is to Discover Magic as he learns to survive and live in this new world, doing the best he can to not die, or even worse. *** Hi All! This is my story, it has been brewing in my mind in various forms for years. It will be rough, this is the first story I have written in a long time, so please help me make it as great as it can be! It is a High Fantasy adventure/Isekai LitRpg, it will have action and adventure, levels and dungeons, Elves, Dwarves and Gods. It is not a Virtual Reality story, though it will touch on some topics of artificial intelligence. The core focus of the story is going to be the discovery and deep delve in the magic system and fantastical elements of the world. Mana is used so often in LitRPG's but how often is it explained what mana is, magic is used in fantasy, but how often do you understand what it feels like. Magical races like Elves, Dwarves etc. often exist in stories, but why do they exist? and what truly makes them different from Humans and from each other? What is a God and where did they come from? These are the sort of topics that I want to really dive into in this series, all through the lens of a progression focused LitRPG. Thanks for reading!

Sage Fall
Out of hiatus, but with a hitch. . Read most recent "chapter", Status Update, for more info. Trapped for thousands of years. Betrayed by the ones he held dear, the ones he called family. Finally set free by happenstance, Amrin sets out to find the ones that locked him in the heart of a mountain. Find the answers he's been asking himself while conscious within the darkness. The world has changed in his time away. Learning new things, meeting new people, struggling with questions he may never get the answers to. He will journey through this new world and search for the "family" that betrayed him and figure out why they did it. If they did not have the answers he was looking for, there would be consequences. *This is a VERY HEAVY story driven fiction (read: can be slow!). There are some sections of action, drama and soon/eventually, mature related content (sexuality and gore). There are going to be sections with lots of text and little dialogue. There's going to be sections with lots of dialogue and little descriptive narration. ***Word of warning and advice. To save yourself the potential disappointment! The MC is mostly a pacifist! If you're looking for a super OP protagonist that uses his powers to get what he wants and to hell with the consequences, this story IS NOT for you. There are times when it should be obvious why, other's it's only implied. Either way, if you are expecting "shoot first ask questions later" mentality from the MC, regardless of how powerful he is, save yourself the disappointment and look elsewhere. I want to give a HUGE THANK YOU to all the readers and commenters of my story. It's all the positive feedback and comments that really give me the motivation to keep going. Honestly. It sounds cheesy, but it's true. So, again. Thank you!

A Generic Dungeon Core Story
When one falls… what happens? Do they just disappear into an endless abyss? Do they got to a final resting place to lay forever? Do they get to look down proudly upon the world from the clouds or look up in regret as they are burned and tortured? One man… person found out the hard way as he fell into a dark abyss after having surely died only to found himself awake again with most of his memories and knowledge blocked of as he was reincarnated into a 10ft cube as a small glowing sky blue orb…. This is my first actual foray to the world of webnovels as I’ve never wrote any stories before… *cough cough * edgy horny filled teenage fanfics do not count whatsoever *cough cough*. I am very new to the world of novels and I am not a native English speaker so expect a lot of grammar mistakes. The story will update on weekends on Saturday or whenever I feel like uploading as I do not have much free time and this is only a novel I write to improve my writing skills. What can you expect from the story? - Dungeons? Of course, this is the main theme of the story. - Multiple leads? Yes, there will be multiple perspectives from many different characters with at least 4 main characters. - Gamelit? The world is ruled by a system… that does absolutely nothing other than a way to view your stats and progression. - Murder hole? No, the lead character has a challenging yet fair view on how dungeons should operate, don’t get me wrong as he will still kill people if they are evil, careless or overestimate their abilities but don’t expect too much death as I feel that most adventurers would be smart enough to know their abilities especially when they have to do it themselves instead on relying on skills or the system. - Cultivation? No, the ability to gain power from sitting still and breathing never made any sense to me and it will be completely broken if the MC gets their hands on it so… no. - Non-human MC? Yes, they are a dungeon after all and yes, dungeons do get avatars but it is a specialized procedure that many choose not to do. Also, if the dungeon gets an avatar, no he will not be some wish giving demigod or whatever. - Magic? Yes, but it is very limited and down to the ground... from my notes... which means nothing - Art? Yes, I’m a hobbyist-artists so expect some art sketches here and there… I am poor so I do not have line art pens or tablets or adobe photoshop… also no scanners so… pictures of pencil-sketches it is, no coloring though since I am terrible at coloring. - Comedy? Yes, if you can call my bad attempts at humor comedy. - Likeable characters? Hopefully… especially since I accidentally made like... 60 characters … how I made 6 originals into 60?… I have no idea whatsoever… - Adventurers/invaders/delvers/etc…? Yes! My favorite part about dungeon core novels are when delvers delve into the dungeon and reading how they react, I will definitely flesh out the delvers and show how they operate more than usual hopefully. Hopefully you like the story, I will not have a patreon or paypal or whatever mostly because I’m under 18, thanks for at least reading this far and I hope that my writing is at least passable and you enjoy the story… if not then at least I got some writing practice in English.
