Top grade pills are always in demand, and no matter how many are offered, there are always buyers. Now they’re being sold at seventy percent off? Are they crazy?

If this news spreads, most of the Meridian Opening and Human Immortal Realm disciples of Immortal Martial Mountain will surely swarm here.

Someone shouted, “Does the Immortal Dome Pavilion have that many pills? I’ll buy as many as they have!”

The steward remained calm, “There’s no need to worry about the supply of pills. As long as you’re a disciple of Immortal Martial Mountain, you can purchase ten pills every day, enough for your cultivation needs.

Moreover, they can be purchased with Star Yuan.

However, our Immortal Dome Pavilion has introduced a new regulation.”

“What regulation?” People were curious.

The steward announced loudly, “You’ve all heard the news from a few days ago. Some Pill Masters are deliberately tarnishing our Mountain Lord’s reputation, which has made him very angry.

Therefore, from today onwards, anyone who goes to those Pill Masters trying to defame our Mountain Lord to buy pills will also be blacklisted by our Immortal Dome Pavilion, and will never be able to buy pills here again!”

This statement instantly caused an uproar.

However, when the steward started selling pills, the crowd surged forward, as they didn’t care about Wang Xuan’s grievances with those Pill Masters.

If the Immortal Dome Pavilion could supply them with the top-grade pills they needed for cultivation and at such a low price, they were more than happy to buy from there.

After all, they benefit from it, so why would they have any objections?

Is the choice difficult? It’s not.

The Immortal Dome Pavilion said not to buy from those Pill Masters, but Zhang Jingde and the others never said they couldn’t come to the Immortal Dome Pavilion to buy pills.

So, buying pills from the Immortal Dome Pavilion and temporarily not going to Zhang Jingde, Li Zonghua, and the others poses no loss to them.

Such cheap top-grade pills, and without the need to bid or compete, it’s a great benefit to them.

The steward carved the names of Zhang Jingde and others on a large wooden board, making it very conspicuous for everyone to see.

As buyers spread the news, the disciples who heard about it immediately flocked in just to purchase the top-grade pills.

At the same time, they all noted down the names of those Pill Masters, choosing not to buy from them unless absolutely necessary; otherwise, the doors of the Immortal Dome Pavilion would essentially be closed to them.

The Immortal Dome Pavilion was bustling with activity, while a person anxiously rushed back to report the news.

He was there to gather intel, just to keep an eye on every move of the Immortal Dome Pavilion.

“This is bad! This is bad!”

Upon returning and seeing Zhang Jingde, he quickly shouted.

“What’s going on? Speak quickly,” Zhang Jingde ordered.

When he understood what the Immortal Dome Pavilion had done, he flew into a rage and immediately gathered Zhou Rongjun, Li Zonghua, and others.

“Utterly shameless! Utterly shameless!”

Upon hearing the news, each of them was furious, practically about to explode.

With Wang Xuan doing this, who would still come to them to buy pills?

“How dare he do this! How can he do this?! Does he even abide by any rules? It’s like a slap in our face!” Zhang Jingde stormed furiously.

Each of them was fuming, as Wang Xuan’s move made them deeply uncomfortable.

Wang Xuan’s actions left them with almost no options and not only blocked their future prospects but also ruined their reputations.

If no one comes to buy pills, then these Pill Masters are as good as finished, not to mention that the Immortal Dome Pavilion called them out specifically; it’s easy to see how the disciples of Immortal Martial Mountain would choose.

“Brother Jingde, what should we do?” Li Zonghua was extremely anxious.

With such a massive sales volume at the Immortal Dome Pavilion and already limited market, and with the Immortal Dome Pavilion targeting them, life became even harder.

Zhang Jingde gritted his teeth, “Wait! We’ll bide our time with him! I don’t believe he can produce thousands of top-grade pills daily, and when he’s out of pills, that’s when we’ll take action!”

No matter how great Wang Xuan is, there’s no way he can supply the entire Immortal Martial Mountain’s disciples in the Body Refining and Human Immortal layers with pills indefinitely.

How could that be possible!

As days went by, in just five days, the Immortal Dome Pavilion sold over ten thousand top-grade pills, yet operations didn’t stop.

In contrast, at their place, even the term ‘deserted’ was inadequate, as there was simply no one around.

No one came to buy pills from them, and being ignored and isolated made them both angry and frustrated.

As soon as they stepped out, people pointed and laughed, discussing their disputes with the Immortal Dome Pavilion.

“The Immortal Dome Pavilion is so powerful now, selling one to two thousand top-grade pills a day, it’s unbelievable how strong King Xuan’s alchemy skills are.

It’s not ‘one against ten’; it’s practically ‘one against a hundred’! With such an incredible Pill Master, how could anyone underestimate him? It’s simply overestimating themselves!

Having King Xuan at Immortal Martial Mountain is truly a blessing!”

“Indeed, once Wang Xuan made his move, the Immortal Dome Pavilion thrived, leaving Zhang Jingde, Li Zonghua, and the others with no way out.

This blockade, what’s the result?

Now, no one goes to them for pills, not even one!”

The speaker laughed as if enjoying the drama even more.

Zhang Jingde, Li Zonghua, Zhou Rongjun, and the others blushed with shame and anger, wishing they could find a hole to hide in.

A disciple originally heading to the Immortal Dome Pavilion quickly avoided them when he saw them, but Zhang Jingde caught up and grabbed his arm.

“Wu Heishan, our relationship isn’t minor, and the pills you usually purchase come from me. Why haven’t you come to buy in these last few days? Are you afraid of Wang Xuan?”

Zhang Jingde asked through gritted teeth.

That disciple feared Zhang Jingde’s aggression and helplessly replied, “Brother Zhang, everyone knows the pills at the Immortal Dome Pavilion are cheap, and their top-grade pills sell for less than a third of your price.

With such a choice, I naturally prefer to go to the Immortal Dome Pavilion.”

As for the matter of the Immortal Dome Pavilion blacklisting Zhang Jingde and others from buying pills, Wu Heishan didn’t mention it because, although everyone is aware, uttering it out loud feels too humiliating.

Zhang Jingde’s breath quickened in anger.

Must they really follow Wang Xuan’s lead and drastically cut prices? How could that be possible? For them, concocting a top-grade pill yields only one, and sometimes none if they’re unlucky.

If they were to compete with Wang Xuan, even if ten of them combined strength, they wouldn’t match him in the Alchemy Dao.

“Let’s go to the Black and White Mountain and take it up with Wang Xuan! He’s pushing us to a dead end!”

The group of ten felt that if it continued this way, they wouldn’t just stop concocting pills because nobody buys them; they’d lose their dignity too.

Getting mocked when they step out was unbearable for them!

“Exactly, most of us are in the Vajra Realm, and the rest are in the Divine Treasure and Innate Realms. Today, if Wang Xuan doesn’t compromise and continues to oppress us, we’ll smash his Immortal Dome Pavilion!”

“Let’s go! I don’t believe he won’t compromise! If he insists on being stubborn, we’ll see how tough he really is!”

The group marched aggressively to Black and White Mountain. Seeing it bustling with people only fueled Zhang Jingde’s frustration and jealousy, and he hollered, “Where is Wang Xuan? Come out and see me!”

The crowd turned their attention, curious about what Zhang Jingde and his group intended to do here, seemingly wanting to cause trouble for Wang Xuan.

Soon enough, Wang Xuan descended the mountain to check on the commotion.

He glanced at the dozen or so Pill Masters, their riled and anxious appearances were incredibly pleasing to him.

Wang Xuan casually remarked, “You came to see me for what exactly?”

His calm face made those Pill Masters want to land a punch; it was just so maddening to see!

Zhang Jingde strode forward, eyes wide as if facing a mortal enemy, and demanded, “Why is Immortal Dome Pavilion so overbearing, preventing others from buying pills from us? What you’re doing is breaking the rules!”

“What rules have I broken?” Wang Xuan raised an eyebrow, casting a disdainful gaze at him, “You tarnished my reputation, yet you dare to come here and discuss rules with me?”

“You’re persecuting fellow disciples, persecuting allies in the Alchemy Dao, isn’t that breaking the rules?” Zhang Jingde retorted loudly.

Wang Xuan chuckled, “Since you badmouthed me behind my back, I’ve never considered you allies in the Alchemy Dao, just a bunch of rotten apples.

As for persecuting fellow disciples, you standing here unscathed without a single limb broken is a testament to my generosity.

The number of people I’ve killed is not in the hundreds of thousands; who do you think you are? When I decide to cut off your head one day, that’s when you can talk to me about persecuting fellow disciples!”

His exploits in the Eight-armed Celestial King Realm were known to few. Even if known, the perception of him was limited to the Meridian Opening Realm.

Thus, Zhang Jingde and the others appeared unmoved, let alone intimidated.

Zhang Jingde was furious, livid at Wang Xuan’s words.

Labeling them as “rotten apples” of the Alchemy Realm was an utter insult!

Unable to tolerate it any longer, Zhang Jingde, Li Zonghua, and the others shouted, “In that case, don’t blame us for being unreasonable! Brothers, tear down his Immortal Dome Pavilion!

If Wang Xuan dares to stop us, we’ll break his limbs and see how arrogant he remains! Even if it means risking punishment from the Mountain Gate, we’ll make him pay!”

Having said that, Zhang Jingde and his group charged forth.
