Cultivation Begins with Daily Intelligence Reports

181: Top-grade elixirs, crushing victory!Everyone widened their eyes and dropped their jaws, staring at the Medicinal Pill suspended in the air like a work of art, speechless.

A Supreme-grade Pure Heart Pill of perfect quality.

Without needing any other Cultivator to introduce it, everyone knew how extraordinary this Medicinal Pill was.

The Medicinal Pill bore Pill Veins, a symbol of a supreme-grade Medicinal Pill.

The value of this type of Medicinal Pill was more than ten times that of ordinary Medicinal Pills.

Priceless on the market!

Moreover, it was a heart-clearing pill, a Medicinal Pill capable of clearing distracting thoughts and suppressing Heart Demons.

Even Cultivators in the Foundation Establishment Stage would try to buy it.

It was a precious Medicinal Pill that could enter the auction houses of the Southeast Market Town.

This one pill alone was enough to crush Liu Lili’s Medicinal Pills until nothing was left.

The smug smile on Liu Lili’s face completely froze, like an ice sculpture.

She stared at the supreme-grade Spirit Pill that utterly crushed all her achievements, her eyes filled with disbelief, despair, and collapse.

Even setting aside this one Supreme-grade Pure Heart Pill, the remaining four Medicinal Pills were also of Medium Grade, which was enough to secure the win.

The few ordinary Medicinal Pills she refined seemed so dull, ridiculous, and pathetic in front of that supreme-grade Medicinal Pill.

“Impossible, this is impossible! This is absolutely impossible, how could this be? He even caused the furnace to explode during Alchemy.

This is a Supreme-grade Pure Heart Pill, how could he have refined it?”

She muttered to herself, completely sinking into immense despair.

She curled up into a ball, trembling.

She was representing the Daling Pavilion in this battle, and if she lost this seemingly certain victory...

She didn’t dare imagine what kind of treatment awaited her.

Li Duoduo collapsed onto a chair, her face ashen, her mouth unconsciously agape, like a fish out of water, unable to make a sound.

This time, she didn’t dare resort to sophistry or accuse anyone of cheating.

Cheating?

This was a supreme-grade pure spirit pill.

An Alchemist capable of refining this kind of Medicinal Pill was someone that all major powers would fawn over.

Qin Yue and Yun Momo stood rooted to the spot, the immense surprise overwhelming them, leaving them momentarily unsure how to react.

Qin Yue shook her head and smiled, her eyes slightly moist.

The head shake was a denial of her previous thoughts.

She actually dared to doubt someone cultivated by an old monster who was practically invincible under the heavens!

It was truly too shameful.

Lin Jingyu refining the Supreme-grade Pure Heart Pill this time was sufficient to further illustrate his strength in the Dao of Alchemy.

This proof further solidified his previous statements.

Lin Jingyu looked at the Supreme-grade Pure Heart Pill in the jade box and smiled.

He hadn’t expected to achieve a pill of the supreme-grade level.

During the refinement process, he originally intended to distribute the spiritual power and medicinal properties evenly, but one pill seemed extraordinary, so he injected a large amount into it.

It truly became supreme-grade.

Elder Gu Yue shot forward, trembling as he took the jade bottle Lin Jingyu handed him, carefully examining the five Medicinal Pills, his beard shaking with excitement:

“Perfect! Flawless! Supreme-grade Pure Heart Pill! Comprehensive evaluation... One thousand points! Ten thousand points!

The Miaoling Pavilion side has won with an absolute advantage!”

His loud voice was like a clap of thunder, jolting everyone who had been stunned back to awareness.

Lin Jingyu patted nonexistent dust off his clothes, looked at Liu Lili, whose face was ashen and eyes unfocused, and Li Duoduo, who was slumped like mud, and curled his lips into a faint smile.

“I accept your concession.”

“Whoosh!” The entire venue instantly erupted! Gasps, praises, and unbelievable discussions swept through like a tsunami.

A reversal! An earth-shattering reversal!

“A Supreme-grade Pure Heart Pill! And a full batch! Oh my god!”

“Just who exactly is this Lin Jingyu? This level of Alchemy is simply miraculous!”

“Liu Lili lost! Completely lost! Three High Grade pills versus four Supreme Grade pills—there’s no comparison!”

“Hahaha! I bet correctly! I placed my wager on Miaoling Pavilion! I struck it rich!”

Yun Momo jumped up excitedly, grabbing Qin Yue’s arm, laughing and bouncing:

“Sister Yue! We won! Brother Jingyu won! He’s too amazing!”

Qin Yue also let out a long breath, slowly relaxing her clenched fists, a look of relief and profound satisfaction appearing on her face.

Her gaze towards the figure in the arena was filled with admiration and pride.

Li Duoduo’s face was livid, her body trembling, as she abruptly pointed at Lin Jingyu and shrieked:

“Cheating! He must have cheated! He used some wicked method we don’t know about! His steps were completely wrong! This shouldn’t count!

How could a piece of trash like him refine a Supreme-grade Pure Heart Pill? He probably defected to an Evil God...”

“Bang!”

Before she could finish speaking, she was hit squarely with a hard slap.

A clear handprint immediately appeared on her face.

But she dared not speak, because the one who hit her was Liu Tushan, the First Manager of Daling Pavilion!

He clearly knew that the Daling Pavilion had lost this time, and lost terribly.

Admitting defeat gracefully wouldn’t cause much damage, but if they continued to make trouble, it would deepen the public’s ill will towards Daling Pavilion.

Lin Jingyu slowly turned around, his gaze calmly resting on the hysterical Li Duoduo, a faint trace of mockery curving his lips:

“Manager Li, can you not handle losing? The Dao of Alchemy is vast and profound; how could it be encompassed by the shallow Pill Formulas you know?

Different steps mean it’s wicked? Superior quality means cheating? Truly a frog in a well, utterly ridiculous!”

His voice was not loud, but it clearly suppressed the clamor, reaching everyone’s ears.

Liu Lili stood there utterly demoralized, the immense sense of failure and shame gnawing at her heart like a venomous snake.

Even with Liu Tushan standing right there, she couldn’t stop the impulse in her heart.

She suddenly looked up, her eyes bloodshot, and hissed:

“No! It’s not over yet! There’s a third round! The third round is refining the ’Boiling Blood Pill’! That Medicinal Pill truly tests skill and courage! Do you dare compete?”

Generally speaking, Alchemy competitions consist of three rounds.

Originally, the Alchemist Association had also arranged three rounds, but refining the Supreme-grade Pure Heart Pill this time essentially killed the competition outright.

There was no need to compete further!

Unless Liu Lili could also refine a supreme-grade Medicinal Pill, but was that even possible?

The Boiling Blood Pill is a standout among Tier 1 Medium Grade Medicinal Pills. Its medicinal properties are volatile, the refinement process is extremely dangerous, requiring very high control over the heat and spiritual power. A slight mistake could lead to a Furnace Explosion or even a backlash against the Alchemist!

However, its value was far superior to that of the heart-clearing pill.

This was clearly Liu Lili’s last hope to turn the tables, and it was one of the few Medicinal Pills she excelled at; she had once, by chance, successfully refined a Low Grade Boiling Blood Pill.

She spoke these words in a moment of impulse.

But there was no excitement in her heart, because even a Medium Grade or High Grade Boiling Blood Pill could not compare to the Supreme-grade Pure Heart Pill.

Lin Jingyu looked at the deathly pale Liu Lili and slowly said, “Very well, as long as the raw Materials are provided, I can continue the match with you.”

He showed no fear regarding this.

His eyes were full of confidence.

Liu Lili’s body trembled violently; she dared not face Lin Jingyu.

Her mind was a chaotic mess, and she didn’t know what to do with herself.

“I... I...” Her lips trembled, caught between a rock and a hard place, utterly despairing.

Lin Jingyu stopped looking at her, turned, and cupped his hands toward the judges’ panel: “Senior, please prepare the Materials. I will refine this pill.”

That composure, that confidence, that indifference as if controlling everything, was deeply imprinted in the heart of every person present.

This Alchemy gambling match had long surpassed the initial clash of egos, transforming into a stunning demonstration of Alchemy techniques.

And the name Lin Jingyu was destined to resonate throughout the entire Southeast Market Town starting today.

Regarding this, Liu Tushan stepped forward and said:

“There is no need for the third round of competition. My Daling Pavilion accepts the defeat.”
