Chapter 270: Chapter 120: The Great Battle Begins! Spiritual Artifact Gourd, Overwhelming Power from a Fifth Grade Martial Artist (Major Chapter)

However, “Miaozhi Garden” is only responsible for cultivating flowers and plants. If you truly want to perform alchemy, that’s the work of the Divine Wood Hall.

In recent years, after losing contact with the Divine Wood Hall, they dried and stored those flowers and herbs in the sect, and surprisingly, they were still usable… This time, when the Divine Wood Hall came, they turned in all the flowers and herbs in exchange for some resources and an additional spot to study the Life Atlas.

Hua Yanmeng, being influenced by her surroundings in the “Miaozhi Garden,” naturally knew some of the names of the elixirs.

She counted on her fingers and listed them one by one to the noble.

“Blood Spirit Pill, Grain Avoidance Pill, Youthful Appearance Pill, Mindless Pill, Realm-Breaking Pill.

The Blood Spirit Pill, with just one pill, contains the essence blood of ten pounds of demon beast meat, and the higher the grade of the demon beast meat, the harder it is to craft the Blood Spirit Pill.

Demon beast meat is not easy to preserve and usually needs to be stored in a cold cellar.

However, the “Blood Spirit Pill” only needs to be stored in a ceramic bottle, making it incredibly convenient for carrying and preservation.

…

After using a Grain Avoidance Pill, the elixir will slowly release its effects, allowing you to go ten days to half a month without needing to eat, which is quite beneficial.

However, for a Sixth Grade powerhouse like you, the Grain Avoidance Pill might be ineffective…

But for those in the social world, it is very helpful.

After all, one Grain Avoidance Pill allows a person in the social world to stay focused on cultivating in a chamber without being distracted by mundane needs like eating and drinking.

…

The Youthful Appearance Pill can help ordinary people keep their looks youthful, but it requires taking one pill every year…

…

The Mindless Pill is used to aid in enlightenment. After consuming it, all kinds of distracting thoughts vanish, allowing insights to be gained with half the effort.

…

As for the Realm-Breaking Pill, this is likely the most expensive and precious elixir. It is said to contain an extremely potent essence blood force, which can assist you in making a breakthrough during a critical moment, but if the attempt fails, your body will become weakened…

Just like the Blood Spirit Pill, the higher the grade of the Mirror-Breaking Pill, the scarcer and more expensive it is…

…

However, crafting these elixirs is not easy, and their production is limited, so they are generally not listed in external supply catalogs. If you want to buy them, you have to have connections. Outsiders find it very difficult to acquire them.”

Evidently, this information is not particularly secret, but as Hua Yanmeng disclosed it to him one by one, it was also a gesture of goodwill…

…

…

The next day, Li Yuan went to East Spring County with Mu Hua.

As they parted, he tousled Hua Yanmeng’s hair in front of everyone, hugged her, and said, “I’ll visit you next time.”

After they left, a maid went to tidy up his bed from the night before and discovered a bloodstain on the sheets.

In the evening, when Li Yuan reached the small pavilion on Fangcun Mountain in East Spring County, Hua Yanmeng had already transformed from an Outer Disciple who needed to dress as a courtesan in a brothel for merit, into a revered Inner Sect Disciple.

Li Yuan once again ascended the small pavilion, pretending to scout around, and then he discovered a memorial mound in front of a cliff.

The tombstone was inscribed with “The grave of Han Feng’s righteous younger brother, Mu Er.”

Overlooking the outside green mountains and mist from the stele, the view was quite good, making it a “mountain view tomb”…

Then, he again became acquainted with the Sixth Grade couple, Han Feng and Leng Rou.

But to avoid being recognized, this time he feigned indifference, adopting a “strangers keep away” demeanor.

That couple then gave up on forming any association.

Each went their own way.

This time, there was no personal connection.

…

Time slowly passed.

In not even half a month, Li Yuan went on duty 6 more times, earning 150 taels of blood gold.

This time, he changed his “investigation style,” from the previous “reckless charge” to cautiously probing.

He would even insist on having the accompanying disciples investigate seemingly dangerous, but actually safe, areas.

Those disciples were terrified, each of them especially nostalgic for the days under Mr. Mu Er.

And with this style, no one connected him to the former Mr. Mu Er.

However,

Li Yuan could distinctly feel.

The situation was experiencing immense changes.

Previously, the Skeletal Forces were unpredictable.

This time, Martial Artists were truly meeting the Skeletal Forces on a large scale for the first time.

To put it plainly, the Martial Artists were thrown into confusion, for they lacked understanding of the Skeletal Forces.

But as they continued to fight, they also started to identify the weak points of the Skeletal Forces.

Fatal weak points.

…

Three days later.

Early summer.

Thunder broke through the sky, dazzling the world.

Dark purple electric rays interweaved through the looming clouds.

Purple is a mysterious color, as well as a melancholic one.

However, lightning breaks through darkness, illuminating the world with a beam of light.

Elder Zhu sat high up, watching the lightning outside the Ming Hall, his fingers interlocked, his eyes filled with a wild and destructive look.

In the great hall, the people gradually filled in.

The attendees included Mu Hua, Yan Mu, Shan Baishou, Yuan Zongzi;

It also included Han Feng, Leng Rou, and Li Yuan, under the alias Jin Daorong.

Upon everyone’s arrival, the doors of the Ming Hall slowly closed.

Elder Zhu scanned the crowd and said, “The greatest weakness of the Skeletal Forces is that they cannot stay outside for long.

Moreover, when they enter the so-called Ghost Street, they cannot enter immediately but require some time.

This is the first point.”

“Secondly, the Skeletal Forces’ assassinations are not instantaneous; they require time to initiate.

And in the time they take to start, is when they are most likely to reveal their identities.”

“Thirdly, the Incense Worship Sect has major issues.

The Incense Worship Sect, using rouge for makeup, incense burning rituals, worshipping the void, and chanting the name of the Evil Immortal.

All disappearances, even all the Skeletal Forces’ schemes are related to the Incense Worship Sect.”

He paused for a moment, then continued, “And over this long time, we have completely controlled the identities of all the Incense Worship Sect’s believers.
