Who Brought Him into the Cultivation World?

Chapter 99: Chapter 81: Tempted by My Pill Extraction Technique?

”Your cousin’s family is so inconsiderate. Han Yu, you’ve been abandoned.”

In the mist of the Sea of Consciousness, Glass couldn’t see any expression but spoke with indignation.

Just at this moment, his cousin’s voice gradually came in, and he walked into the cave with a stern expression, stride by stride.

Master Qiu’s evasive attitude towards Celestial City Peak made him feel utterly disheartened.

Han Yu saved him, yet he put himself at risk, how could he leave with peace of mind?

Entering the cave, he saw Han Yu sitting safe and sound on one side, and his cousin let out a sigh of relief, but then saw an impatient old face.

The old pharmacist’s face was thin with anger and he shouted, ”You think I can’t kill Mo Family people?”

After finishing, with a wave of his hand, the left foot which the cousin was about to step out with froze in mid-air, his face then showed horror as he suddenly lost control of his entire body, and the lifted foot could not fall.

Moreover, he gradually felt his breathing become heavy, the air seemed to have gained weight, it felt as if it took on form, and he could no longer inhale a breath.

Soon, his face turned extremely red.

”Courting death!”

The old pharmacist clenched his fist in the air, and the space in front of the cousin visibly started to twist.

Whoosh!

With a sound of ripping through the air, the old steward swiftly entered from outside the cave, grabbed the person, and pulled him out before retreating swiftly out of the cave.

In the original position where the cousin stood, an unseen force was continually crushing within.

”Look at the shadow on the ground.”

Glass reminded him out loud.

Han Yu looked up and clearly saw the shadow on the ground constantly twisting and pulling, this was clearly the work of that force.

”Now you know how untouchable the Realm of Transcendence is, don’t you?”

Glass spoke in a deep tone.

For the first time, Han Yu had a sense of the Realm of Transcendence, just like Glass said, they should not be provoked.

That effortless force, Han Yu had no doubt it could easily kill him.

——

After being pulled out, his cousin’s face was deathly pale, a nauseating feeling instantly swept over, and after retching a few times, he pressed his chest with lingering fear.

”You’re truly fearless out of ignorance, Celestial City Peak is not to be trifled with, and yet you rush recklessly towards it.”

The old steward sighed beside him.

The cousin, after taking a few breaths, couldn’t help but look up at him, utterly confused, ”Master Qiu, is the Spirit Medicine Sect really that terrifying?”

Even the Mo Family of the Lower Three Sects and Master Qiu as a fellow transcendence feared it.

The old steward’s expression turned severe as he retorted, ”Who told you there’s such a thing as the Spirit Medicine Sect?”

The cousin was stunned hearing this, wasn’t this common knowledge among the Cultivator Realm people?

There’s a Spirit Medicine Sect on Celestial City Peak.

The old steward shook his head and sighed, simply saying, ”Rumors are harmful.”

He then slowly explained.

There’s no Spirit Medicine Sect on Celestial City Peak, only eight old madmen and a few peculiar pharmacists with a shared fondness for eccentric odors.

The cousin expressed disbelief with his appearance. There’s no Spirit Medicine Sect, yet among cultivators, it’s widely regarded that the entire Spirit Medicine Sect on Celestial City Peak produces peculiar pills.

Initially, he even privately believed that Han Yu was also from the Spirit Medicine Sect.

The old steward informed him, indeed Celestial City Peak is known for producing odd pills, that being due to the eight madmen leading the way.

The mention of the Spirit Medicine Sect probably originated from twenty years ago, whereas the eight old madmen on Celestial City Peak were famous in the Cultivator Realm even earlier, about ten years prior.

One theory suggests there’s a vein near Celestial City Peak, and since Spirit Stones are essential for pharmacists to cultivate Spirit Plants, those eight madmen occupied the area.

Another theory is those eight madmen discovered a large stretch of natural Spirit Plants on Celestial City Peak and settled there.

In any case, one common point is thirty years ago, the eight madmen obsessed with the Alchemy Dao were already strong transcendences.

Later on, Celestial City Peak gradually gained a reputation, attracting many pharmacists fond of researching peculiar pills. Over time, it evolved, and when exactly the notion of Spirit Medicine Sect began to spread is unknown.

For those aware of the truth, who would bother to clear up the rumors, while the uninformed spread it as gossip.

”There is no Spirit Medicine Sect; the most famous thing about Celestial City Peak is just those eight madmen in the Realm of Transcendence.”

The old steward seemed somewhat helpless regarding these eight individuals, sighing as he spoke.

”Even so, there’s no need for the Mo Family to fear them.”

This was what his cousin least understood.

Regarding transcendence, the Mo Family also has its own.

”Consider those eight madmen as rogues of the Cultivator Realm and you’ll understand, your family has vast assets, but the others have nothing to lose, no Spirit Medicine Sect, no disciples or acolytes, no worries. If you fight those eight madmen, who wouldn’t be troubled?”

The other party can easily leave Celestial City Peak, while those who have engaged them have sects and disciples there.

The old steward frowned, unwilling to provoke these lunatics for the Mo Family without Mo Yushu’s approval.

——

The old pharmacist had regained composure by now, glanced at Han Yu, and spoke again, ”I’m merely interested in your technique. As long as you don’t do anything foolish, I have no interest in harming you.”

Technique?

My only technique is to extract pills at regular times every day, does that count?

Could it be that even this, you wish to learn?

Han Yu lamented bitterly. If they were interested in his pills, it wouldn’t be surprising, but this interest in alchemy technique, this indeed is rare.

”Help me refine a batch of pills.”

The old pharmacist suddenly spoke, then pat Han Yu’s shoulder, immediately sending a tingling sensation throughout his body.

Han Yu looked in horror as he found himself completely unable to move, what kind of method is this?

Contrarily, the old pharmacist seemed to have done something trivial, and seeing Han Yu immobilized, he slowly walked out.

”What kind of method is this?”

Han Yu asked in shock within his Sea of Consciousness, he simply hadn’t figured out what this lunatic had done.

”He used Spiritual Power to immobilize your entire body.”

Glass sighed helplessly, lamenting Han Yu’s bad luck encountering such a person, a situation with no easy solution, the opponent’s every move could be fatal for Han Yu.

Before long, the old pharmacist returned with a bunch of Spirit Medicines which Han Yu couldn’t name, waved over Han Yu, and only then did Han Yu feel an alleviation, regaining bodily freedom.

”I once conceived an idea of refining a pill that enhances a cultivator’s physical strength using seven kinds of potent toxins. This is my Pill Formula; try it.”

The old pharmacist said, pulling out the Poison Scripture and turning to the first few pages.

Even after hearing this, Han Yu broke out in cold sweat, seven kinds of toxic Spirit Medicines, with no additional ingredients, to be refined in this manner? Even a layman like him wouldn’t dare think so.

Then, raising his eyes to glance at the densely written page, he felt chills down his spine.

The entire page recorded only one Pill Formula, aside from various unfamiliar Spirit Medicines and detailed dosages, the most noticeable were rows of red ”正” marks.

Unclear if these represented failure counts or death tolls, neither was reassuring.

”He wants me to refine it.”

Han Yu anxiously sought help within his Sea of Consciousness, heart racing with panic.

Glass too was troubled, sighing with worry, ”Try to drag it out until midnight! See if Ping can do anything.”

On the other side, the old pharmacist was already urging. Luckily, he was uneasy about the dosage and procedure. After placing a Spirit Medicine, he said, ”You come and refine it, let me see.”

With that, he positioned himself nearby, prepared to observe attentively.

The reluctant Han Yu, knowing nothing about Alchemy, made a move that left the old pharmacist utterly stupefied...
