Chapter 165: The Hunyuan Sect's Retaliation
"Oh? Who is it?"
"It's... it's..."
"Speak quickly, or I'll kill you right now!"
"It is, it is the Hunyuan Sect!"
"Hunyuan Sect!"
Tian Mao's answer made Chu Feng feel extremely surprised.
He could not understand why they would issue such a commission.
Chu Feng could not help but think of what Wulie Daoren had said.
He wanted to refine his own troops into Blood Pills.
Could it be that the Hunyuan Sect had actually been engaging in such dirty business in secret all along?
"Are you sure you aren't lying to me?"
Chu Feng stared fixedly at Tian Mao, hoping to catch a sign of a lie in his eyes.
"No, no, I really am not!"
Tian Mao, his legs shaking like chaff, plopped down onto the ground, "My lord, this lowly one is truly not deceiving you in the slightest.
This is indeed a commission issued by the Hunyuan Sect, and they didn't just commission one faction; many factions have their commissions."
In order to survive, Tian Mao spilled everything he knew.
"How is this possible? The Hunyuan Sect is one of the top factions in the Dao Sect, and its influence is in no way inferior to the Heaven Sect, the leader of the Dao Sect.
Moreover, they have always branded themselves as a righteous sect; how could they do such things that are beneath even pigs and dogs!"
Tian Mao spread his hands and said helplessly.
"I don't know either! When I found out about this Hunyuan Sect commission, I also thought it was unbelievable, but that is just the situation!"
Lv Liangqing did not continue speaking.
In any case, the news he had learned today had completely refreshed his worldview.
The Hunyuan Sect, which had always been praised and revered by everyone, would actually commit such deeds.
It was truly disappointing.
"Ugh!"
"Ah!"
Lv Liangqing spat out a mouthful of black blood, and his aura began to plummet like a cliff.
"Father, what is wrong with you?"
Lv Ke hurriedly checked on his father's condition.
He saw that the black crescent mark on Lv Liangqing's chest had become even more distinct.
"This... this is a curse of Witchcraft!"
Tian Mao was a man of broad experience and recognized Lv Liangqing's specific problem at a glance, "This condition can only be cured by an Eight-Grade Soul-Cleansing Curse-Dispelling Pill!"
"Then can you refine it?" an Elder of Xuan Yun Mountain asked.
"I... I am only a Six-Rank Alchemist, how would I know how to do that!"
"You..."
For a moment, the crowd did not know what to do.
Lv Liangqing's Curse Seal had reached a very serious stage; if it were not treated immediately, his life would be in danger.
It was rare to have an Alchemist nearby, but it turned out to be only a Six-Rank one.
"Hey, hey, hey, I say, have you all forgotten about me?"
"Ah?"
"That's right!"
Lv Ke suddenly slapped his own head.
In his anxiety, he had actually forgotten about this great master beside him.
"General, I must trouble you to step in and save my father."
"What, he is also an Alchemist?"
The crowd looked at Chu Feng, their faces full of skepticism.
"I am untalented, but I know a little!"
"Young friend, we appreciate your good intentions, but this is no joke! That is an Eighth Grade Pill!"
The crowd believed that Chu Feng could not possibly complete this task.
Therefore, they were unwilling to let Chu Feng waste his energy.
After all, he had just saved them, and they did not want to see him embarrassed.
"It's just an Eighth Grade Pill, it's not like I haven't refined one before!"
Faced with Chu Feng's confidence.
Many people felt that Chu Feng was being far too arrogant.
Eighth-Grade Alchemists were as rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns.
Besides, which Eighth-Grade Alchemist hadn't immersed themselves in the way of alchemy for decades?
Someone in their early twenties, even if they started refining pills from the womb, would be impressive enough to refine a Third Grade Pill.
Eighth Grade?
Unless you are the illegitimate child of the Heavens.
"Young friend, just treat a dead horse as a living one; this old man believes in you!"
In the end, Lv Liangqing made the final decision to choose to believe.
In any case, he was already a man near death, so why not take a gamble?
"Good. Senior, please wait a moment. Everyone else, please protect me. And you, what's-your-name,"
Chu Feng turned his head to look at Tian Mao, "As an Alchemist, you must have quite a few good things on you, right?"
"This..."
Tian Mao very tactfully handed over his storage tool, "Sir, can you leave me a little?"
"Cut the crap. Do you believe I'll kill you right now and send you to reunite with that fellow surnamed Ren?"
"Please go ahead, Sir. It is my honor to be of service to you!"
Tian Mao gave a mournful face as he handed over all his treasures.
Taking Tian Mao's collection.
Chu Feng immediately checked it over once.
"Not bad, the required materials are all here!"
After confirming the specific materials, Chu Feng immediately took out a pill furnace and prepared to start refining.
"Eh, why does this pill furnace look so familiar?"
Tian Mao looked carefully and a scene suddenly popped into his mind, "Damn, isn't this the Jinyang Bagua Furnace of Wulie Daoren from the Hunyuan Sect? How could it be in his hands? Could it be that..."
Tian Mao associated this with a very terrifying situation.
That was that Wulie Daoren of the Hunyuan Sect had already been slaughtered by the young man before him.
And the other party was fully capable of this strength.
Otherwise, how could one explain why the other party's pill furnace appeared here?
It was at this moment.
Chu Feng began his preparatory work.
He cast the condensed Dan Fire into the pill furnace.
He began refining the Pill.
"Such terrifying Dan Fire temperature; this has already surpassed the vast majority of Alchemists.
No, wait a minute, isn't pill refining something only people from the Dao Sect can do? How does this martial cultivator know how?"
Tian Mao felt his entire worldview was in disarray.
That a crude martial cultivator could actually perform such delicate work as pill refining was simply inconceivable.
After thinking it over, Tian Mao finally reached a conclusion: Chu Feng before him was a peerless genius who cultivated both the Dao and martial arts.
If so, it made sense that the other party could refine pills.
But to refine an Eighth Grade Pill like this was still too far-fetched; after all, pill refining still required experience.
Without decades of pill refining experience, it was simply impossible to succeed.
Immediately following.
Chu Feng's subsequent performance made Tian Mao, a Six-Rank Alchemist, feel even greater shock.
"This... this technique... this process... it's simply outrageously professional."
Tian Mao only felt his heart was very hot.
He had encountered an expert today, an extraordinary expert.
The technique and process were so professional it was absurd; one who didn't know better would think the other party was a veteran who had been refining pills for decades.
Yet, the person was just a young man of twenty or so.
A true heavenly human!
The time of one incense stick passed.
Chu Feng's pill refining also neared its end.
The moment the pill was produced.
A thick pill fragrance instantly permeated the entire area, causing everyone to be intoxicated by this strange fragrance.
"This... it's already refined? That's too fast!"
He couldn't have imagined that the other party had really succeeded, and it had only taken the time of one incense stick.
Many who had questioned Chu Feng suddenly felt very ashamed.
It turned out the other party truly had this ability.
"Pill out!"
Chu Feng slapped the pill furnace, and the Pill instantly flew out.
He reached out and caught the Pill in his hand.
"Lv Ke, have your father take this!"
"Right!"
Lv Ke hurriedly took the Pill handed over by Chu Feng.
The freshly refined Pill still had some residual warmth, feeling warm in his hand.
"Father, take it quickly."
"Right!"
Lv Liangqing took a look at the Pill in his hand.
There were four clear Dan Patterns on the surface of the Pill; it was of pure, top-grade quality.
Immediately, Lv Liangqing sent the Pill into his mouth.
The moment the Pill entered his mouth, it turned into a mass of clear Qi, entering his internal organs.
In an instant.
The various uncomfortable symptoms were instantly alleviated, and the mark on his chest was also fading at an extremely rapid speed.
"Many thanks to this young friend for the grace of saving my life; my Xuan Yun Mountain will never forget this!"
"Senior, you are too polite!"
"I hope this young friend will accompany us to Xuan Yun Mountain for a visit, so that this old man may fulfill the duties of a host."
"In that case, this junior will respectfully accept!"
The group immediately headed toward Xuan Yun Mountain.
As for Tian Mao, he was taken in by Chu Feng.
This fellow was a rare Six-Rank Alchemist; by bringing him into the army, the supply of Pills in the future would be guaranteed.
And Tian Mao naturally accepted with pleasure.
Following such a powerful boss, the future simply could not be better.
It was not until the group arrived at Xuan Yun Mountain.
That they saw Lu Tianzong waiting there with an anxious look on his face.
"Grandfather, how could you be here?"
"Sigh, an emergency occurred, so I had no choice but to come find you myself!"
"What happened?"
"Anwu Prefecture and Dingning Pass have been attacked, and all garrison personnel have been captured!"
"What?"
Chu Feng was greatly shocked.
To dare to launch an attack on these two places, they truly did not put him, Chu Feng, in their eyes.
One must know that this was his territory.
"Who is it? To actually dare to be so bold!"
"It is the Hunyuan Sect!"
