"It's not easy to concoct this pill. There are only two hearts. One has failed, and there's only one left. Sigh... I should've taken those bastards' hearts too," Zheng-Fu said disapprovingly after failing the first round of pill concoction. He regretted not taking the hearts of the demons inside the cave with him at that time.

Otherwise, he would have had more demon hearts to experiment with.

"No matter what, I must succeed this time!" With that, Zheng-Fu immediately began the second round of concoction. This time, he shut off all distractions and focused entirely on the task.

Wooooosh!

Back to the Holy Ancient Region...

After Zheng-Fu traveled to the Hell Region for more than two weeks, several things happened in the Holy Ancient Region: the Cult of the Savage Evil caused chaos across the continent. They slaughtered many innocents, and many cities in each land were wiped out by the Cult of the Savage Evil to the point of being abandoned.

However, this chaos was quickly suppressed by the martial masters of each land, who took control of the situation to prevent further escalation. Despite this, the martial masters who were sent to battle suffered numerous injuries and casualties.

This was because the Cult of the Savage Evil had many high-level martial masters, some even at the Divine Emperor stage. Most of their attacks targeted the Birdy Holy Fiery Heaven Country, which had more martial masters than any other land.

In addition to the disturbance caused by the Cult of the Savage Evil, there was also a youth competition between the lands. Whether sects, parties, cults, or clans, everyone wanted to participate in this competition to gain honor and increase their fame.

Of course, the person who won first place would receive many prizes. But no one could be certain because this competition took place in the Birdy Holy Fiery Heaven Country, and they would not let anyone win first place except their own people.

As for the disciples of the Beyond Earth Sect, they had all advanced very well. Their cultivation was progressing even faster than before. Many powerful disciples had reached the Immortal stage, and even the descendants of villagers who had no wealth were succeeding.

This was because they had the support of the Beyond Earth Sect, and as long as they followed the sect's rules and practiced diligently, they had a chance to succeed. Many disciples had successfully stepped into the Immortal Soul stage.

However, for those over thirty, there were only two options. The first was to choose to work for the sect, and the second was to leave and pursue their own goals. But no matter which path they chose, they could always retain the status of Beyond Earth Sect disciples.

As for Dong-Kuang and the others, they were still cultivating. The first group included Hai-Dong, Dan-Chun-Gu, Fu-Tao-Qi, Lang-Guang-Kuang, Dong-Chen, Ming-Mu, and Lou-Wei. They were the first group to absorb the energy from the second pill that Zheng-Fu gave them. At this moment, there was a roaring sound as a Phenomenon Pillar appeared.

Woooooosh!!!

This Phenomenon Pillar was of the Divine Emperor stage, and the person who had leveled up to the Divine Emperor stage this time was Dan-Chun-Gu, who had been at the half-step of the Divine Emperor stage before absorbing the energy from the second pill.

After absorbing the energy for the past week, he successfully broke through to the Divine Emperor stage. Now that he had been promoted to a Divine Emperor martial master, his energy absorption was even better, allowing him to absorb twice as much energy from the pill as before.

"Dan-Chun-Gu has now leveled up to the Divine Emperor stage. So, we now have seven Divine Emperor martial masters, excluding Young Master and Jin-Tian," Dong-Kuang said after realizing that Dan-Chun-Gu had been promoted to a Divine Emperor martial master.

Having more Divine Emperor stage masters was a great inspiration for the disciples of the Beyond Earth Sect. It made them realize that they also had a chance to reach that level if they continued to practice diligently.

A few days ago, the sect announced good news: they had created a special training area. Only the prime disciples and the top ten inner disciples could enter. In one month, this special training area would be open for one time only, and it would have ten times more energy than the outside.

This news led the inner disciples to begin competing for the top ten spots, while the prime disciples were less concerned because they all had guaranteed access without needing to compete for a higher rank.

Back to Zheng-Fu…

The process of concocting the Divine Pill was very difficult and involved a variety of steps. Without knowledge of the procedure, it would be impossible to do. After failing the first time, Zheng-Fu improved his technique in the early stages of concoction.

The first day passed...

Phew!!!

Woooosh!!!

The second day passed…

The third day passed...

Finally, the fourth day arrived…

On this day, his apothecary furnace began to emit a soft golden glow, with the aroma of medicinal herbs wafting through Zheng-Fu's room. At the same time, above the apothecary furnace, a total of ten purple pellets slowly floated up.

Blop!!!

"Finally, it's succeeded! Ha ha ha, I've succeeded!"

Zheng-Fu stretched out his hand, took all ten pills, and looked at them with great joy. These ten pills required a lot of effort and spiritual energy to concoct, but it was all worth it because he had obtained the 'Purple Heavenly Demon Divine Pill.' This was a ninth-level medicine, a Legendary-level pill. Normally, just one pill would be very difficult to concoct.

In this small world, no one could concoct ninth-level medicine. Even the Dharma Light Heaven Sect's apothecary could only concoct seventh-level medicine, which was so valuable it was considered priceless. So, the ninth-level medicine that Zheng-Fu had just concocted was truly extraordinary.

In fact, the medicinal formula Zheng-Fu obtained was for a tenth-level medicine. But because the demon's heart Zheng-Fu used wasn't good enough, the result was only a ninth-level medicine. However, just one ninth-level pill could promote an Immortal stage cultivator to the Divine Emperor stage.

"I must make the best use of these ten Purple Heavenly Demon Divine Pills. Since there are still three days left before the congregation, I'll give Jin-Tian one of them to level him up first," Zheng-Fu said, looking at the ten pills in his hand.

Zheng-Fu had already planned to give the medicine to Jin-Tian after concocting it, using him to test the effect of the Purple Heavenly Demon Divine Pill. If the effect was truly great, he would use it himself and spend the rest of his time absorbing the energy from the pill.

In Jin-Tian's room…

Creak!!!

"Respect, Master," Jin-Tian greeted Zheng-Fu immediately, knowing who had entered his room.

"Relax," Zheng-Fu waved his hand, telling Jin-Tian to take it easy as usual before continuing, "How is your cultivation?" Zheng-Fu asked, looking at Jin-Tian with a smile.

"My energy level has risen to the third level of the Divine Emperor stage. But after advancing to this stage, it has risen very slowly," Jin-Tian replied honestly, explaining the problem he was currently facing.

"Mhm... It's natural for your energy level to increase slowly because you've absorbed all the energy from this room already. But don't worry, I've got a new Divine Pill for you. This pill is called the Purple Heavenly Demon Divine Pill, and it's a ninth-level medicine. If you ingest it, it'll greatly increase your energy level."

Zheng-Fu said this as he took out one of the purple pills from his dimensional ring and handed it to Jin-Tian.

Blop!!!

Gulp!!!

Jin-Tian didn't hesitate to take the pill that Zheng-Fu had given him. He swallowed it without asking any questions. As the Purple Heavenly Demon Divine Pill flowed down Jin-Tian's throat, it rapidly dissolved, releasing a massive energy wave from the pill.

Booooooom!!!

Ah!

The heat inside Jin-Tian's body surged along with the torment arising from within. The intense energy wave smashed through various pulse points in his body and swirled like crazy. If Jin-Tian didn't quickly deal with this energy wave, his body would definitely explode.

Blop!!!

Seeing Jin-Tian's expression worsen, Zheng-Fu reached out, grabbed Jin-Tian's body, and helped him manage the raging energy swirling within him before shouting with a very serious face, "Hurry up and revolve your energy to absorb the energy from the pill quickly!!!"

Ah!!!

Woooooosh!!!

Hearing Zheng-Fu's words, Jin-Tian immediately began revolving the crazy energy from the pill, slowly absorbing it into his Dan-Tian point. At that moment, the sound of an explosion within his energy realm rang out.

Booooom!!!

It was the sound of energy advancing to the next level.

"In less than ten breaths after he swallowed the Purple Heavenly Demon Divine Pill, he was able to advance from the third level of the Divine Emperor stage to the fourth level. The energy of the Purple Heavenly Demon Divine Pill is truly amazing. Oh, if I hadn't saved Jin-Tian in time...

Sigh!" Zheng-Fu said, feeling both sad and happy about the results of the Purple Heavenly Demon Divine Pill, the ninth-level medicine he had just concocted.
