Daoist Competition-Chapter 210 - 74 Seeking the Pill Refining Method, Virtual Body Illusion

On Perch Eagle Land Continent, after more than ten consecutive days of fierce battles, the demon tribes on this Demon Island were beaten back step by step under the relentless assault of the Mingcang Sect, with several clans being slaughtered to extinction.

Though there were four Demonic Cultivators of the Hua Dan Realm stationed on the continent, during the clashes, they were all held off by Ge Shuo, Fan Changqing, and Fang Hong and unable to lend support, helplessly watching as their subordinates were slaughtered by the Mingcang Sect cultivators.

However, perhaps the Mingcang Sect cultivators felt the time was not ripe and refrained from fully pressing the Hua Dan Demonic Cultivators. Every time they gained the upper hand, they would withdraw, only to strike again two or three days later when the demons regrouped.

After several repetitions of this, the disciples of the Mingcang Sect were thoroughly enjoying themselves.

If they had ventured out on their own to accumulate merit, it would hardly have been this gratifying. Now, with senior brothers of profound cultivation watching over them, and fellow disciples supporting one another, facing these demons who had only learned some rudimentary Dao Techniques posed no challenge. They found themselves so engaged in daily battle that their hands grew tired from the slaughter.

Over these past days, more and more disciples of the Mingcang Sect had gathered here, including followers under various True Masters and elders.

Though the demon tribes on Perch Eagle Land were numerous, they could not withstand such continuous assaults. Gradually, they retreated deeper into the continent. The Mingcang Sect disciples later had to venture into the heart of the land to find these tribes but did not mind much; they planned to reap sufficient merit first before launching one decisive strike to take Perch Eagle Land Continent completely.

That day, after another resounding defeat of the demons, three Flying Palaces formed a triangular formation in the sky. In their center, a mighty procession of nearly two hundred Xuan Guang Practitioners wreathed in five-colored light majestically returned to Bamboo Island.

Now all eighteen islands in Nandang Swamp had been equipped with Array Flags, with prohibitions interlinked to dispel the demonic miasma. The cloud mist over Nandang Swamp had gradually dispersed. At this moment, with the evening sun slanting down, the clouds blushed with red hues, the lake surface glittering brightly. Exotic Beasts roamed, Spirit Birds soared, and the land had already begun to exude an Immortal ambiance.

Amidst the many Xuan Guang Practitioners, there were numerous female crowns of remarkable beauty, with several of them surrounded and protected like stars around the moon. All of them were disciples under True Master Qin of Linglang Cave Heaven.

This True Master Qin, owing to the uniqueness of her status, never discriminated when accepting disciples. In this Three Pools Battle, Linglang Cave Heaven’s disciples were present across Surging Wave Lake and Bixue Pond.

Among the female crowns, the one leading appeared around twenty years old, with gleaming white teeth and alabaster skin. Her eyebrows carried a natural charm and radiance. At that moment, her jade-like hand, as smooth as creamy fat, flicked a streak of brilliant light that twisted and coiled like a rain silk. She remarked joyfully, "Brother Mo, the elixir pill you gave me today was indeed extraordinary. When I wielded the Man’e Sword, I felt it was more fluid and responsive than usual."

Standing beside her was a tall man with striking brows and a valiant gaze. This was Mo Tianhua, a disciple of Elder Qi in the sect. He chuckled at her words and remarked, "Sister Yang Ying, that pill is called the Rejuvenation Pill. It was refined by a disciple of the Elixir Cauldron Institute. After Master Ge appraised it, he gave it high praise and personally recorded a merit for the disciple. However, it’s a pity that this pill requires three days to produce a single batch, with each batch yielding only twenty or thirty pills. It’s not something everyone can have."

Yang Ying nodded in understanding and said, "Ah, so it was made by a disciple of the Elixir Cauldron Institute. No wonder. With an effect like this, recording a merit is well-deserved."

Mo Tianhua let out a light snort, his tone tinged with disdain. "That individual may also be at the Xuan Guang Realm, but their foundation is shallow, unlike ours. The Xuan Guang they cultivate is thin and impure. I doubt they could ever hope to seek the Great Dao in the future."

That day, when Ge Shuo publicly remarked on Zhang Yan’s shallow mana, those who had witnessed Zhang Yan slay the Demon General did not take it seriously. However, considering that Ge Shuo might have had a hidden meaning, none dared to openly refute him. Word of this later spread among the disciples, who mostly believed it to be true.

It is known that without superior Dharma Techniques or assistance from rare treasures, even forcing one’s cultivation level upward would still result in limited achievements and a lack of competitiveness among contemporaries.

Mo Tianhua only knew that there was a disciple in the Flying Palace exceptionally skilled in the Alchemy Dao. But as Pill Masters are mostly resigned to having no prospects for cultivation, he naturally looked down on them, his words often carrying hints of scorn.

Yang Ying blinked her beautiful eyes and said, "Brother Mo, although the Alchemy Dao may not lead to immortality, we cultivators cannot do without it. With such profound expertise in Alchemy, if he inherits Dean Zhou’s Daoist heritage in the future, the sect surely would not treat him poorly."

Mo Tianhua wasn’t a fool. Seeing how Yang Ying continued steering the conversation toward the topic of elixirs, he started to catch on and smiled, "Sister Yang, is there something troubling you that requires my assistance?"
