Hedan Hall.
The lotus breeze brings fragrance, and the bamboo dew drops make clear sounds.
The sun was scorching, and Jiang Yuebai was walking through the rockery corridor holding a jade box containing elixirs.
In the Hedan Hall, the alchemy apprentices gathered under the shade of the trees to avoid the scorching sun and talked about the rewards for the small competition.
"This month, Elder Sun has an extra furnace of Foundation Establishment Pills. I heard that the first place winner of the competition will be rewarded with three Foundation Establishment Pills, the second place winner will be rewarded with two, and the third to fifth place winners will each be rewarded with one."
"Elder Wu also personally refined a batch of ninth-grade upper-level Peiyuan Pills. The first place winner of the competition can get three bottles. The upper-level Peiyuan Pills do not have elixir poison, and the effect of Peiyuan is more than ten times stronger than the lower-level ones. It is really tempting."
"Don't forget the Marrow Cleansing Pill. This thing is about the same difficulty as the Foundation Building Pill to refine. It can cleanse the meridians and marrow, remove impurities from the body before building the foundation, make the meridians and dantian stronger, and increase the success rate of the third-grade foundation building."
"Just these three kinds of elixirs are already very generous. In addition, there are also magic weapons, skills and contribution point rewards."
"What you said is nothing. What really matters is that the top-ranked person can be enlightened once by the Supreme Elder. Being enlightened by a Divine Transformation cultivator is of great benefit to one's cultivation and state of mind. It is wonderful beyond words."
"Yes, when Uncle Yu Qiuchi was just at the ninth level of Qi training, he won first place in the small competition and was enlightened by the Supreme Elder. He reached perfection in the ninth level of Qi training overnight, saving at least five years of hard work."
Jiang Yuebai wanted everything they said, and she was aiming for the first place in this competition.
Although she didn't need the Foundation Establishment Pill, she could sell it in exchange for the blood of a spirit beast in the Golden Core Stage.
Walking down the corridor and through the cave gate, I met a few alchemy apprentices walking hurriedly, as if they were avoiding someone.
Jiang Yuebai looked past them and saw Elder Sun and Elder Wu coming together, his eyes suddenly lit up.
When passing by the alchemy apprentice, he was suddenly "bumped" into, his body tilted, the jade box in his hand fell, and all kinds of elixirs inside fell to the ground.
"I'm sorry, I didn't see you, Senior Sister."
The alchemy apprentice apologized in panic and hurried to pick up the elixir on the ground.
Jiang Yuebai lifted the person up and said softly, "It's okay, you go ahead, I can clean it up myself."
The alchemy apprentice was puzzled, and Jiang Yuebai's gaze was intimidating, so he had to bow and leave. He still couldn't understand how he bumped into him.
Jiang Yuebai squatted down and slowly picked up the herbs scattered on the ground. He stretched out his hand and was about to pick up a spiritual medicine with green leaves and purple flowers, but the medicine flew straight out and landed in the hands of an old man with a goatee not far away.
"Isn't this Qiluo grass? Why does a ninth-grade spiritual medicine have an aura close to that of a seventh-grade one?"
The dark-skinned middle-aged male cultivator next to him also reached out and sucked a dark green fruit into his hand.
"Snake Gallbladder Fruits are usually green in color, but this one is almost black. Its medicinal properties are extremely strong. If I had used this fruit as a supplement to refine the Qingxu Pills I just made, they would definitely be of high quality."
"Huaxi Valley Spiritual Farmer Jiang Yuebai pays homage to Elder Sun and Elder Wu."
Sun Wancheng, with a goatee, and Wu Jinsheng, with a dark skin, looked up at the same time, their eyes falling on the young, pretty girl in front of them.
The two looked at each other and reacted. Sun Wancheng asked, "Are you the inner sect spiritual cultivator who has the fifth level of spiritual cultivation magic?"
Wu Jinsheng asked, "Did you grow these spiritual herbs?"
Jiang Yuebai responded respectfully, "I'm sorry to both of you elders. These spiritual medicines were indeed cultivated by me. I hope you will return them. I will send them to Elder Lin as soon as possible. He is anxiously waiting."
Hearing this, their faces darkened and they threw the elixir to Jiang Yuebai in a bad mood.
Jiang Yuebai didn't say much. He quickly packed up the elixir and left.
The two turned around and looked at Jiang Yuebai's back. Sun Wancheng snorted coldly, "What an ignorant fellow. I promised her what she needed to build her foundation, but she refused to submit. She just fell for that worthless Lin Xiangtian."
Wu Jinsheng shook his head in dismay, "With Lin Xiangtian's alchemy skills, using such a good elixir is simply a waste of resources. It's heartbreaking!"
Sun Wancheng immediately got angry, "Lin Xiangtian is just occupying the toilet without doing anything. His alchemy skills are not even as good as my apprentices, and he still wants to use the best alchemy room?"
Wu Jinsheng was indignant, "This alchemy room is mine, and all the top-level alchemy rooms are mine. If Lin Xiangtian wants to make an elixir, tell him to come find me!"
The people in the Alchemy Institute were furious. Jiang Yuebai did not see Lin Xiangtian and only gave the elixir to Qi Ming.
Qi Ming escorted Jiang Yuebai out of the back hall and whispered to Jia Xiuchun about his recent situation.
"Jia Xiuchun's eighty-first fire trial is coming to an end. He is hanging on to his last breath. The deadline is within ten days. I am here, so you can rest assured in the competition. I wish you to win the first place this time and rise to a high position."
"Notify me when she is about to die." Jiang Yuebai said calmly.
After leaving Hedan Palace, a paper crane carrying a letter flew towards her. Jiang Yuebai smiled after reading it and headed straight for Tianjian Peak.
Lu Nanzhi and Xie Jingshan came out of the sword tomb!
＊
At that time, in the main hall of Tiankui Peak.
Wen Miao was unkempt, leaning in a chair drinking. Wen Ci glanced at her and frowned to remind her.
"The people from Guiyuan Sword Sect will be here soon. As the Grand Elder of Tianyan Sect, can you please pay a little more attention?"
Hiccup
"I am already giving them face by coming back for this matter. Otherwise, I would still like to keep an eye on Jiuchuan kid's baby formation. His elixir was of the first grade back then, and this time his life magic weapon has been perfectly repaired and is even better than before. The baby formation he will produce must be extraordinary."
Wen Ci nodded slowly, "It is indeed a pleasant surprise. When he returns, Tianyan Sect will have another powerful Yuanying master. I hope that the ancestor's inheritance can see the light of day again in his hands."
Wen Miao hummed as he held the wine flask in his mouth. "The acquired five elements are indeed not as good as the innate five elements, but it is difficult to find a balanced innate five elements, and 99% of them cannot reach the stage of Dan formation."
"Jiuchuan's five elements of spiritual roots are already very close to being balanced. He has finally made it through the threshold of forming a pill. If nothing unexpected happens, he will surely be at the peak of his powers. By the way, Guiyuan Sword Sect came here at this time, is it for the Lost Secret Realm?"
Wen Ci snatched the wine pot from Wen Miao, "Yes, this matter has always been led by Guiyuan Sword Sect. Half of the major sects in the Central Plains have agreed, and I have not yet expressed my opinion. But I am unsure about this matter. The ghost clan is immortal. After so many years, who knows what the situation is in the Lost Secret Realm? It's too dangerous."
Wen Miao sighed, "But we have to open it. Without the mineral vein, how can the sect continue? And look at these little bastards in the sect now, they are all cowards who only bully others at home. They have never seen real killing and have no courage that a cultivator should have. They should be thrown in to train them properly."
Wen Ci had a headache, so he sat down and pinched his brows, "This matter needs to be considered in the long run, and there is no rush. Let's talk about the small competition. This time, Guiyuan Sword Sect brought a hundred rookie disciples to compete with Tianyan Sect disciples. Five of them have already begun to comprehend the inheritance of the Sword Sect's founder."
"There is a person named Zhuo Qingfeng, who has a wind-type spiritual root and is only two years older than Lu Nanzhi. He has already comprehended the Wild Wind Sword Intent and defeated someone in the early stage of Foundation Establishment at the ninth level of Qi Training. The other four are also outstanding, each with their own strengths."
"What I mean is that since you are here, you should neither be treated specially nor neglected. You should participate in this small competition together. You should come up with a set of rules. Don't let Tianyan Sect lose its dignity, and don't let Tianyan Sect lose its prestige."
Wen Miao picked her ears impatiently, "Okay, okay, leave it to me and I will make sure it's fair and just. I'll think of a simple and interesting way for you to decide the winner in one round, so you don't have to worry about it."
"Also, Xiaoci, if the disciples of Guiyuan Sword Sect take up too many Foundation Establishment Pill quotas this time, it will be unfair to our disciples. But you can't not reward them if they win, so you'd better instruct Hedan Palace to make a few more furnaces of Foundation Establishment Pills and make up for them when the time comes."
Wen Ci nodded, "Yes, I have already instructed you, but the foundation-building pill is not easy to make. It requires as many as seventy-two kinds of spiritual medicines. I can only do my best."
"Master, the people from Guiyuan Sword Sect have arrived!"
Wen Ci swallowed the words that were about to come out of her mouth. Although Wen Miao was lazy, he had never made any mistakes in important matters.
After tidying up his clothes, Wen Ci walked out of the hall to greet the people from Guiyuan Sword Sect.
"This time, the competition will be more difficult and exciting than before~"
