Chapter 162: The Path Ahead for Fang Dongtian! Zhang Chulan Descends the Mountain

The box was opened, and a round, primordial Pill sat quietly inside the box.

It lacked any of the exaggerated commotion that had occurred when it was first born on Longhu Mountain.

Fang Dongtian looked at the Dragon-Tiger Golden Pill in the box, his expression somewhat dazed.

Having cultivated for a lifetime, from the moment he entered Baiyun Guan, from the first time he came into contact with Nidan Fa, his entire life had been spent cultivating to form an inner elixir.

Yet after a hundred years of cultivation, he still could not see even the slightest trace of reaching the path ahead.

This path of cultivation was far too long.

Therefore, after Lin Xuan was brought to Baiyun Guan by Luo Daming and displayed astonishing talent for cultivation, Fang Dongtian truly had placed his hopes on Lin Xuan.

It was just that his thought at the time was that if he could see even the slightest possibility of Lin Xuan forming an inner elixir in his lifetime, he would be satisfied.

But he never expected that it would be formed so naturally, as if that endless path of cultivation did not exist for him at all.

Upon realizing that Lin Xuan had formed an inner elixir, he thought he would feel envy or jealousy, but he was very calm.

What was his thought at the time?

Fang Dongtian's eyes were somewhat dazed.

Right.

So, the Inner Elixir True Person is truly not a legend!

That must have been the thought.

It was indeed not a legend.

Picking up this Pill, which now looked unremarkable and had even restrained much of its medicinal fragrance, Fang Dongtian placed it into his mouth.

The Pill melted the moment it entered his mouth.

A stream of heat flowed into his abdomen, then rapidly flowed into his limbs and bones.

His originally weak body was being replenished with vitality.

Is it increasing his cultivation to forcibly elevate him after replenishing his vitality?

Such a thought arose in Fang Dongtian's heart.

But then, an ineffable realization welled up in his heart.

The path of cultivation was, at this moment, clearer than it had ever been before.

The most critical thing was that he saw it.

He saw that cultivation node on the path ahead.

There was a clear feeling that if he crossed it, he would succeed.

Although he could see it, he could not reach it right now.

"So I am already this close to it!"

Fang Dongtian thought to himself.

Compared to the vast, invisible path ahead from before, although there was still distance now, there was a goal.

And the medicinal power erupting within his body was pushing him to advance in that direction.

There was also realization.

Within the Pill were very profound realizations.

Fang Dongtian did not know if these realizations came from Lin Xuan or elsewhere.

In the room, upon the meditation cushion.

Fang Dongtian sat cross-legged quietly, eyes slightly closed, face calm, already in deep meditation.

Outside, Lin Xuan felt the aura Fang Dongtian was restraining and brewing, and looked up at the sky.

The sky was very quiet.

It seemed to have no intention of stopping him.

But this isn't right, is it?

Judging from the previous situation, apart from him, any power that attempted to exceed the limits would suffer suppression.

A flash of doubt crossed Lin Xuan's eyes, followed by a glimmer of realization.

Understood!

The lightning tribulation when the Pill is formed is actually the manifestation of that suppression.

But the Pill was formed under his intervention.

Which is to say, the tribulation had already been taken on by him.

It seemed that was the case!

However, Lin Xuan was not entirely sure if others would encounter things when condensing an inner elixir.

At any rate, he had not.

He turned and sat down at the stone table in the courtyard.

Just in case it plays dirty, I might as well stay here.

Anyway, his cultivation has reached a stage now; if he cannot find a third method to smelt an inner elixir, his cultivation will have to temporarily stagnate.

He could study the Three Thousand Dao Laws again.

Although he could easily suppress the Tianshi with his cultivation during this bout with Lao Tianshi, at his level, he couldn't always rely on either his ultimate move, the Pill Fire, or just swinging his fists.

The methods of a warlock in his hands seemed to have decent power as well.

At the very least, that is how it appeared in the eyes of others.

At the very least, they counted as methods.

Fang Dongtian was restraining his aura in the room, steadily approaching a certain realm.

Lin Xuan sat quietly in the courtyard.

Luo Daming instructed people not to disturb them easily.

Baiyun Guan looked quiet as ever on this side.

However, the Outsider world was very lively right now.

After several days of fermentation, the Alien Forum was very lively, and the Outsider world was also very lively.

Many people had been paying attention to the Luo Tian Great Gathering from the start, and even those who didn't go wanted to know who had won in the end.

The title of "Shameless" was something Zhang Chulan would likely never be able to shake off.

Of course, this was not the most critical point.

Quite a few people said that the reason Zhang Chulan, this guy, was able to beat Zhang Lingyu was because of the Origin of Qi.

Of course, there were also people questioning the fairness of the competition.

However, these all completely vanished after the news of the competition between Lao Tianshi and Daoist Lin Xuan of Baiyun Guan spread.

The outcome of the competition between Lao Tianshi and Daoist Lin Xuan of Baiyun Guan was unclear.

Of course, these people also knew that both sides had exchanged blows, and while they knew absolutely nothing of the specific details, that didn't stop people from guessing.

"What's the situation over at headquarters?"

Xu Si was preparing to leave Longhu Mountain with Zhang Chulan, and as he looked at the situation on the Alien Forum, he frowned incessantly.

Shouldn't this kind of news be prohibited?

How did it suddenly get released?

Zhang Chulan, who had originally been lost in thought, was interrupted by Xu Si's annoyed voice.

"Fourth Brother, if it leaked out, then let it leak; anyway, such a big matter was bound to spread sooner or later."

Hearing Zhang Chulan say this, Xu Si turned his head to look at Zhang Chulan.

"Come to think of it, is Lao Tianshi really not saying anything?"

"Grandmaster didn't say much about this matter, but he seemed to be in a very good mood."

Zhang Chulan recalled what happened after Lao Tianshi returned and called him over.

The look on his face after he refused the Tianshi Inheritance.

As well as Grandmaster's expression when he asked about the result of this competition.

"Could it be that he won?"

Xu Si rubbed his chin, looking suspicious.

"But that makes sense, the Tianshi has cultivated for over a hundred years, while that person has only had twenty years; it's reasonable for there to be a gap."

"Fourth Brother, I don't think so, I reckon he lost!"

Hearing Xu Si's speculation, Zhang Chulan hesitated for a moment.

"Grandmaster was happy, he must have had a satisfying fight."

A satisfying fight?

Xu Si's expression stiffened upon hearing this, and he turned to look at Zhang Chulan, who nodded with a serious face.

"Forget it, if I can't figure it out, I won't think about it. Regardless of what plans the Company has, we just need to do our own jobs."

Xu Si thought for a moment and said directly.

They still had a mountain of things to deal with on their end; where would they find the time to think so much?

What's more, they had a big secret on their side too.

On the other side, after descending the mountain with the Zhuge Qing brothers, Wang Ye had just parted ways and was preparing to return to Wudang Mountain when he received news from Wudang Mountain.

"I've been expelled from Wudang Mountain?"

Wang Ye widened his eyes and roared at the phone.

"This is Grandmaster's decision, little Wang Ye, you don't need to come back. Go home; your father has mentioned many times that he wants you to return, so this can be considered a resolution."

Listening to the voice on the phone and the busy signal after it hung up, Wang Ye frowned at the phone.

In the shadows, Zhou Sheng, who had been watching Wang Ye the whole time, stroked his beard with a strange expression.

It was because of the Feng Hou Qi Men.

This kid Zhou Meng really dares to do anything.

But that's fine too; this kid needs to be tempered, what's the point of always staying on the mountain to temper himself?

Since the matter started because of the Feng Hou Qi Men, then it's likely someone will come looking for him soon.
