Chapter 1080: Trying Something Beyond One’s Ability

After hearing Lin Feng’s words, Yan Nanlai and the Qing Ning Holy Man looked at each other. Yan Nanlai asked, “What do you want then, Master Lin?”

Lin Feng said softly, “Ten Sages Aurous Core, Way of the Celestial Being Aurous Core, Life Substitution Heavenly Pill, Supreme Intelligence Divine Pill…”

Yan Nanlai, the Qing Ning Holy Man and Wu Mengqi were incredulous. The bunch of Great Void Sect disciples could not believe what they were hearing too.

Even Gu Jun and the Gu Family disciples turned perplexed.

The Ten Sages Aurous Core was one of the Four Great Spiritual Pills in the Great Void Sect. It was created by Emperor Chong during the Primordial Age, before the pill formula landed in the hands of the Great Void Holy Man.

This pill nourished one’s vital energy and could treat many injuries. If an Immortal Soul First Level or Second Level cultivator took this pill, he could increase his success rate of reaching the next level.

The Way of the Celestial Being Aurous Core was also another one of the Four Great Spiritual Pills. After consumption, it offered protection to the cultivator. The effect of the medicine would always remain in the cultivator’s body. At a critical moment, it could convert into a treasure light that acted as a defensive shield for the cultivator.

As the medicinal effects did not go off, it could be effected more than once.

But the disciples of the Great Void Sect consumed it mainly to help the cultivators to withstand the Nine Heavenly Palaces Baptism. Besides offering all-round strengthening of one’s body, it could allow them to understand the strongest move of the Great Void Sect, the Great Void Nine Heavenly Spells.

The Nine Heavenly Palaces Baptism was the top baptism ritual of the Great Void Sect, but it demanded a lot from the person being baptized. There was even an element of risk.

Taking the Way of the Celestial Being Aurous Core could remove the risk and lower the requirements to undergo the baptism.

The Life Substitution Heavenly Pill was a spiritual pill that was created by the Heaven’s Gate during the Antiquity Age. After the Heaven’s Gate was destroyed, the pill formula was obtained by the Great Void Sect.

After a cultivator consumed this pill, he could unleash one round of life substitution. Apart from some rare, special circumstances, the cultivator who consumed this pill could be saved and revived somewhere else, allowing him to escape death.

The Supreme Intelligence Divine Pill, yet another one of the Four Great Spiritual Pills, allowed one’s mind to be clearer and faster after it was consumed. The cultivator would also be clearer in his understanding of the way of the Heavens and Earth. Rumors posited that the main ingredient of the pill was the Ginseng Fruit that came from the Ginseng Fruit Tree.

Since the Primordial Age, the art of pill cultivation was developed in the Divine Lands. After being studied by many of the ancestors, a lot of outstanding spiritual medicines and pills with different effects had been developed.

But because of various reasons, many of these pills and medicines were not passed down and the pill formulas went missing. There were even some of these pills that no longer existed.

The Four Great Spiritual Pills of the Great Void Sect were very reputable, and were known by everyone in the Divine Lands.

But during the Middle Ages, there was a scandal in the Great Void Sect. It was one of the few blemishes in this Holy Ground of the Divine Lands ever since it was founded.

One of the Supreme Elder of the Great Void Sect destroyed the pill cultivation pavilion of the sect during the War of the Two Worlds and betrayed the sect, escaping with all the pill formulas of the outstanding pills and he disappeared.

That was a period of chaos, thus no one in the Great Void Sect could bother with him. After the war, when they tried to find him, they could no longer do so.

It was also around the time that the Hades Emperor rose in the Barren Expanses. The conflict between the Divine Lands and the Hades Emperor also became very intense, thus the Great Void Sect could only suck it up.

Only in the recent few thousand years that the Great Void Sect became more free. But to find this elder again, it was very difficult to achieve any progress.

This internal problem caused the development of pill cultivation in the Great Void Sect to stall. If not for the rise of the Qing Ning Holy Man, this matter could no longer just be described with the word ‘disaster’ anymore.

Lin Feng did not notice at the start, because his own Trayastrimsa Elixir of Creation and Spiritual Replenishment Elixir did not have such a problem. But slowly, he realized that the pill formulas of the Grand Celestial World were special in a particular aspect.

The higher the level of the spiritual pills, the more bizarre the pill formulas were. Even if they were recorded on the practical entity, to actually understand them, the person cultivating the pills had to have a certain standard.

Many of the outstanding pill formulas could not be memorized so easily.

When the level of the spiritual pills rose to a certain standard, the pill formulas were not just the recommendation of what herbs or what method to use anymore. Rather, the inclusion of different concepts of the Heavens and Earth was also there.

The elder that betrayed the Great Void Sect was the best pill cultivator before the Qing Ning Holy Man. He was also the only one who could remember the pill formulas by heart. As he escaped along with the pill formulas, the result was that these pills could no longer be cultivated within the Great Void Sect.

After this, with the hard work of the Qing Ning Holy Man and the other elders of the Great Void Sect, as well as the remaining resources and pills, most of the pill formulas were restored after many attempts of cultivation and many years of research.

However, even so, among the Four Great Spiritual Pills, only the Ten Sages Aurous Core was fully restored. The pill formulas of the other three spiritual pills were still in the process of being fully restored.

The Gu Family only retrieved an incomplete version of the Life Substitution Pill recently. After the Great Void Sect received news of this, they naturally took it very seriously. If Lin Feng did not plan to come to propose marriage on behalf of Xiao Yan, the Qing Ning Holy Man would still have come to the Ancient Longevity World even if Yan Nanlai and Wu Mengqi didn’t.

And although the Great Void Sect wanted to conceal the scandal that happened, it was a big issue then and everyone knew about it. It was practically impossible for them to conceal the truth. But in the current age, no one would actually mention this scandal that happened.

But Lin Feng was being very greedy now and even Yan Nanlai’s expression changed.

“…. Three pills each of the Four Great Spiritual Pills.” Lin Feng continued by saying, “The best quality pills too.”

His demands left Yan Nanlai, the Qing Ning Holy Man, Gu Jun and the rest shocked.

The Qing Ning Holy Man looked better than the rest. He looked at Lin Feng and asked, “Master Lin, you want the pills and not the formulas?”

Lin Feng nodded his head, “That’s right, a total of 12 pills. If your sect is willing to use them as a stake, then I will offer the Trayastrimsa Elixir of Creation’s pill formula as stake. What do all of you think?”

Yan Nanlai and the rest pondered about this matter and looked at one another.

The Qing Ning Holy Man and Gu Yuankai were not worried that they could not understand the pill formulas. They were at least confident of that.

Although the pill formula could last forever, to change it into something practical and useful, it still required the combination of different factors. If there was even any problem, then the pills could not be cultivated.

Especially since the ingredients for cultivating the Trayastrimsa Elixir of Creation was unknown, it was likely that they could be stuck.

Just like the Supreme Intelligence Divine Pill, its main ingredient was the Ginseng Fruit. In the Grand Celestial World now, it was a long time since the Ginseng Fruit Tree could be found. Even if the Great Void Sect obtained the formula, it was unlikely that they could cultivate this pill.

With the actual pills, the value of them could be realized instantly.

After entering the current age, the Great Void Sect rose quickly and were on the verge of replicating the success that they had in the past. There were many reasons for this.

The most important reason was naturally the Tai Yi Holy Man, Zheng Yi Holy Man and Yan Nanlai. Besides them, there were also other factors.

Another important reason was that during the Middle Ages, the Great Void Sect developed the Way of the Celestial Being Aurous Core and the sect also managed to obtain a considerable amount of Ginseng Fruit during the War of the Two Worlds.

As the Four Great Spiritual Pills came together, the powers of the Great Void Sect rose another level.

Immense amount of resources could not form an outstanding cultivator, but it could allow those with potential to rise quickly, even faster than expected.

These outstanding cultivators could turn potential into true abilities, but this needed time. If they didn’t encounter the Hades Emperor, who knew what the situation would be like now.

The pill cultivator from the Great Void Sect that escaped with the Way of the Celestial Being Aurous Core succeeded and failed at the same time. He left the Great Void Sect with only one pill formula of the current Four Great Spiritual Pills. For many years, the Qing Ning Holy Man had to deduce and restore the pill formulas of the other three on Mount Baiyun.

Lin Feng was not anxious either. He smiled as he looked at Yan Nanlai and the rest. After the elders of the Great Void Sect interacted with their minds, the Qing Ning Holy Man turned around to look at Lin Feng. He looked a little off as he said, “We shall go along with your idea.”

After that period of chaos, besides the Ten Sages Aurous Core that still had some stock left in the Great Void Sect, the rest of the other three pills were greatly limited in quantity. If they had to use up these pills internally, they had to choose the person consuming it carefully too.

If the quantities of these pills fell even further, it was damaging to their might.

Although the Qing Ning Holy Man was confident that he wouldn’t lose, it was no longer just a matter of his personal pride now. It affected the entire welfare of the sect. They had to consider how they had to cope if they really lost.

If they lost the pill formula, the opponent might benefit, but they still had it too. But if they lost the pills, it would be a great heartbreak for them.

Three of each pill did not seem too many, but the Qing Ning Holy Man was the clearest on how many of these pills remained in the Great Void Sect right now.

Even the Qing Ning Holy Man felt pressurized at this point. It was definitely not good to try something beyond his ability.

This also left the Qing Ning Holy Man even more displeased, “Using such a lowly trick, Lin Feng, you are humiliating yourself too!”

“Or rather, this shows that you are not confident of your own disciple. Thus, you are using such a method to pressurize me? You are only wasting your effort.”

Lin Feng naturally didn’t know what the Qing Ning Holy Man was thinking. He was pleased with the current stakes on the table.
