Chapter 481: Fox Borrowing the Tiger

Lu Yang felt that perhaps he should just betray Luo Hongxia; walking alongside the Senior Sister, the pressure was immense.

The Senior Sister was tall, stunningly beautiful, and had a cold expression; she possessed a strong attraction to both the same and opposite sex.

As she walked down the street, she caused the heaven-chosen to turn their heads repeatedly.

It was only the outsiders turning their heads; the people of the Congwendao Sect wouldn't dare look at the Senior Sister.

Lu Yang was about to turn eighteen and stood 1.8 meters tall, half a head taller than the Senior Sister, yet standing beside her, he felt like he was the short one.

"Big Eater Competition, one thousand spirit stones entry fee, ten people per group!"

"Big Eater Competition?" Lu Yang was slightly surprised. Cultivators could quickly refine what they ate; how long would this competition last?

He turned his head and saw mountains of Grain Grain Bigu pills piled on the dining table.

Lu Yang: "..."

"Elixir lottery, one thousand spirit stones or ten contribution points for one draw; ten draws guarantee a fine-grade elixir, one hundred draws guarantee an elixir with elixir clouds!"

A senior brother from the Pill Cauldron Peak was shouting energetically, catching Lu Yang's attention.

Lu Yang noticed the Senior Sister seemed interested, so he took the initiative to suggest: "I'll draw a few times. Senior Sister, do you want to try?"

The Senior Sister looked coldly at Lu Yang, remained silent for a moment, and then said, "Okay."

When the Pill Cauldron Peak senior brother saw it was the Acting Sect Master and the Senior Sister, his attitude became extremely enthusiastic: "Senior Sister, please sit. Acting Sect Master, you sit too."

"We're here to enter the lottery."

Hearing this, the Pill Cauldron Peak senior brother showed an embarrassed expression: "Lottery? I'm afraid these elixirs of mine won't catch your eyes..."

"It's fine, it's fine, we're just here to play."

As the Senior Sister's expression interpreter, Lu Yang sensed that she had developed an interest in this activity, and naturally, he couldn't dampen her mood.

"Let's start with ten draws." Lu Yang paid one hundred contribution points without blinking an eye.

The Pill Cauldron Peak senior brother brought out a large pill furnace with an opening at the bottom.

"Tap it ten times and ten elixirs will come out."

Lu Yang did as instructed, tapping ten times in a row. Ten elixirs rolled out with a clatter; nine were relatively inferior, their luster not smooth, and only one had an impeccable shape—the so-called fine-grade elixir.

"What kind of elixirs are these?"

Lu Yang recognized common elixirs, but he didn't recognize the elixirs from Pill Cauldron Peak.

"These nine are Heaven and Earth Creation Elixirs. They are infused with the Dao of Time, born from the creation of heaven and earth. They are full of contingency. Even with my power, it is difficult to refine a second furnace. They are elixirs containing infinite possibilities."

Lu Yang was slightly surprised; his gaze toward the nine inferior elixirs changed.

The Senior Sister raised her head to look at the Pill Cauldron Peak senior brother and coldly spat out three words: "Tell the truth."

The Pill Cauldron Peak senior brother shuddered; he didn't dare to act presumptuously in front of the Senior Sister and had to say truthfully: "I was refining elixirs a while ago, went out halfway, and forgot the time. By the time I returned, the elixirs were already ruined."

"I thought since there's a celebration, I might as well sell them as lottery prizes."

"Do you know that one of the conditions for me allowing you to hold activities is not to damage the sect's reputation?"

"Senior Sister, don't worry, I'll tell outsiders I'm a disciple of the Wuxing Sect!" The Pill Cauldron Peak senior brother patted his chest in assurance.

"Hmm?"

"No, no, no, I mean I'll pack up my stall and leave right now."

The Senior Sister raised her hand, stopping the Pill Cauldron Peak senior brother who was preparing to pack up: "No rush, I'll try my luck too."

"This is one hundred contribution points. I'll draw ten times."

The Senior Sister tapped the pill furnace lightly, containing dark force; the power echoed within the furnace, striking nine times.

Adding up, it was exactly ten times.

Ten elixirs rolled out with a clatter.

These ten elixirs were each plump, and three of them were wrapped in elixir clouds.

Seven fine-grade elixirs, three elixir-cloud elixirs.

According to probability, one would have to draw three hundred times to get three elixir-cloud elixirs.

"Not bad luck." A faint, imperceptible arc appeared at the corner of the Senior Sister's mouth. She picked up one of the elixir-cloud elixirs and put it away, giving the rest of the elixirs to Lu Yang.

She didn't use any spells; this was pure luck.

Her luck had always been very good.

The two continued walking, searching for the reason behind the disappearance of the Integration stage cultivators while enjoying various activities. Gradually, Lu Yang lost his previous restraint.

A pair of master and disciple happened to pass by and saw Lu Yang and Miss Yun Zhi.

"Master, you say Lu Yang's age and cultivation are about the same as mine, so how did he become the Acting Sect Master and have the qualifications to preside over the sacrificial ceremony?"

A young heaven-chosen felt a hidden jealousy toward Lu Yang. He came from the Yuqi Sect, one of the nine super-grade sects. His master was the Yuqi Sect Master. He was able to come to the Congwendao Sect celebration not only because he was from the Yuqi Sect, but also because he was one of the cultivators participating in the finals.

His status was similar to Lu Yang's, but their positions were worlds apart. He felt unbalanced in his heart and somewhat unconvinced.

"Shut up!" The Yuqi Sect Master shouted in a low voice, reprimanding his own disciple.

The young heaven-chosen was startled. His master had always been kind to him; when had he ever been reprimanded like this?

The Yuqi Sect Master couldn't care about his disciple's reaction; he was now breaking out in cold sweat, staring fixedly at Lu Yang.

It was just that his focus was not on Lu Yang, but on Miss Yun Zhi beside Lu Yang.

Although he didn't have the high status of the five Sect Masters, as an old-school super-grade sect, his status was also transcendent, and he knew some things.

For example, he heard that several hundred years ago, there was a disciple in the Congwendao Sect who, with her own strength, defeated the masters of the four great immortal sects, including the long-famous Master Jiesha.

Who was Master Jiesha? He was considered an absolute powerhouse among Tribulation Transcendence stage cultivators, even stronger than the ancestors of his own sect by a few points!

Even Master Jiesha lost; one could imagine the other party's strength.

And this was something from hundreds of years ago. With so much time having passed, he didn't even dare to imagine what level that Congwendao Sect disciple's cultivation had reached.

"This is the true protagonist of the great world struggle..."

With talent so transcendent, I'm afraid no one can compare.

"Master..."

The young heaven-chosen saw his master's terrified expression and heard his master's muttering. Following his master's gaze, he saw Lu Yang, who was currently in the limelight.

He had never heard his master give such a high evaluation of anyone.

The young heaven-chosen seemed to understand something and looked at Lu Yang with awe.

The Senior Sister sensed someone looking at her, turned her head to look, and seeing it was the Yuqi Sect Master, she didn't think much of it and withdrew her gaze.

"Senior Sister, what's wrong?" Seeing the Senior Sister turn her head, Lu Yang thought she had discovered something.

The Senior Sister frowned slightly; she had indeed discovered some things she couldn't understand.

"Strange, why does it feel like there are many more unfamiliar Integration stage cultivators?"

To hold this celebration, the Congwendao Sect invited friends far and wide, and Integration stage cultivators from all walks of life came to keep the appointment, which could be described as extremely lively. What made the Senior Sister puzzled was that walking all this way, she hadn't encountered many familiar Integration stage cultivators, but instead had encountered many unfamiliar ones.

If a few unfamiliar Integration stage cultivators were mixed into a group of Integration stage cultivators, it would be hard to notice, but if several Integration stage cultivators appeared abruptly, it would be very obvious.
