Translator: 549690339
The members of the Pill Sect were anxious; they couldn’t let the Heavenly Mechanism Sect take away this Emperor Grade Spirit Transforming Dan to the auction!
“Hehe, it seems your Sect truly doesn’t value the Tribulation Crossing Pill. Since that’s the case, why don’t our Pill Sect trade with something else!” Shentu Feng pulled Ning Qianqiu behind him and smiled at Mu Xingzhi.
It was clear, he didn’t want Ning Qianqiu to speak again.
Otherwise, the purchase of the Emperor Grade Spirit Transforming Dan might be ruined by Ning Qianqiu.
“Not necessarily a bad idea, Sect Leader Shentu could first mention what he has in mind,” Mu Xingzhi said.
After some thought, Shentu Feng smiled and said, “Our Pill Sect doesn’t have much else, but we do have plenty of pill materials. How about, we trade with one hundred sets of Tribulation Crossing Pill materials instead!”
Mu Xingzhi’s eyebrows raised slightly; that was a large number indeed!
One hundred sets of Tribulation Crossing Pill materials, in the hands of the little martial uncle, would become twelve hundred top-quality Tribulation Crossing Pills!
Despite the allure of over a thousand top-quality Tribulation Crossing Pills, Mu Xingzhi wasn’t dazed; he realized that Shentu Feng was setting a trap!
This was a pitfall!
This guy wanted to use one hundred sets of Tribulation Crossing Pill materials to lure out the little martial uncle!
If the little martial uncle used these one hundred sets of Tribulation Crossing Pill materials to concoct Emperor Grade Tribulation Crossing Pills, that would point the way for the Pill Sect!
Li Cheng also realized this, but did it matter?
Heh, I’ll satisfy you!
I will let you observe, but you won’t be able to concoct Emperor Grade, not to mention King Grade pills.
Let’s see if you get angry then!
With this in mind, Li Cheng said, “One hundred sets of Tribulation Crossing Pill materials, plus one hundred sets of Responding to Calamity Pill materials. If Sect Leader Shentu agrees, we can make the trade!”
The eyes of the people from the Pill Sect widened, anger surging in their gaze!
Good grief, one hundred sets of Responding to Calamity Pill materials?
That was several times more precious than the materials for the Tribulation Crossing Pill!
How dare you ask for so much!
Mu Xingzhi also looked at Li Cheng suspiciously; this was asking for the moon!
To think, the little martial uncle was playing hardball!
But on second thought, the little martial uncle must have seen through Shentu Feng’s intent, which is why he asked for the moon deliberately.
He knew that the Pill Sect, in order to learn the secret of concocting Emperor Grade Spirit Pills, would surely agree!
Indeed, after a moment of stunned silence, Shentu Feng simply smiled, “Fine, but there is one condition from our Pill Sect.”
“You want to observe my alchemy, right? No problem!” Li Cheng responded very directly.
Huh?
Observe your alchemy?
“Could it be that you are the senior who concocted this Emperor Grade Spirit Transforming Dan?” Shentu Feng’s eyelids twitched as he stared intently at Li Cheng.
Li Cheng nodded, “That’s right!”
Mu Xingzhi also nodded at the side, providing everyone with a confirmation.
Seeing this, the members of the Pill Sect were stunned, and then all of them glared at Mu Xingzhi with resentment.
Why didn’t you say this earlier?
Only after we’ve offended Li Cheng, do you speak up?
Damn it!
Facing hostile gazes from every direction, Mu Xingzhi was inwardly very pleased and smiled, “Gentlemen, there’s no need to look at me like this; I did introduce him earlier, the Eighteenth Elder, my little martial uncle!”
The Pill Sect must have investigated beforehand that they were looking for the Eighteenth Elder, but they had overlooked it when he was introduced earlier.
After all, who would have thought that the Eighteenth Elder was such a young man?
Moreover, when Mu Xingzhi introduced him earlier, he had said ‘indeed…’ but was interrupted by Ning Qianqiu.
Thinking back, the members of the Pill Sect instantly understood that what Mu Xingzhi wanted to say was surely: the very person who concocted this Emperor Grade Spirit Transforming Dan.
Instantly, resentful glares shifted toward Ning Qianqiu!
Shentu Feng’s expression turned slightly stern, “Elder Ning, go back immediately and fetch one hundred sets of Tribulation Crossing Pill materials and one hundred sets of Responding to Calamity Pill materials.”
Ning Qianqiu, though not highly emotionally intelligent, was no fool and knew that he had made a grave mistake. He left as if fleeing, fearing that the anger of the crowd could not be contained.
Once away from the Heavenly Mechanism Sect, Ning Qianqiu fiercely slapped himself several times!
“That’s for your loose tongue, that’s for talking too much…”
With each slap, the smacking sounds echoed through the sky.
Ning Qianqiu was tearless with regret. What had he done?
To think he argued with a senior who had crafted an Emperor Grade Spirit Pill! Hadn’t he just ruined his chance to learn from the senior?
But it was already too late for regrets.
“No wonder he dared say that the Tribulation Crossing Pills were mere cabbages in his eyes. I should’ve realized it then, alas!”
Heaving a deep sigh, Ning Qianqiu didn’t delay any further and hastened back to the Pill Sect.
No matter what, Li Cheng had agreed to let them observe, and that was already a huge gain!
But Ning Qianqiu felt it wasn’t enough; he must find a way to earn Li Cheng’s forgiveness and develop a good relationship with him!
And as for how to apologize, of course, it would be with gifts!
On the Heavenly Mechanism Sect’s side, Shentu Feng, leading the people from the Pill Sect, bowed deeply towards Li Cheng, “We were blind to brilliance, please forgive us, senior!”
Li Cheng paid no attention to the people from the Pill Sect, stretching leisurely, he lazily said, “Call me when the materials arrive.”
As his voice fell, Li Cheng had already vanished from the spot.
Back at the Eighteenth Peak, Li Cheng looked at the Seventh Elder and Ling Xi, who were busy with their comprehension, did not disturb them, and flew to the summit, taking out the Sixth Elder’s Comprehension of Array Method.
“Enlightenment!”
With a thought, Li Cheng entered the state of enlightenment for the Array Method.
In the Scripture Repository, Li Cheng had looked through all the books on formations. Although he remembered them, he hardly understood any of them.
Now, with the aid of the Sixth Elder’s insights on formations, while in a state of enlightenment, the knowledge he remembered and the legacy of the Sixth Elder quickly integrated, and his mastery of arrays improved by leaps and bounds.
Half a day had passed, Ning Qianqiu had already returned, constantly stroking his storage ring with both nervousness and anticipation filling his heart.
His actions, of course, did not escape Shentu Feng’s notice.
Seeing Ning Qianqiu stroking the storage ring over and over, Shentu Feng finally couldn’t help but speak, “Elder Ning, the materials for a hundred Tribulation Crossing Pills and Responding to Calamity Pills should not make you this anxious. Do you have some treasure with you, intending to apologize to that senior?”
A pang hit Ning Qianqiu’s heart, secretly admiring how perceptive the Sect Leader was to have guessed it.
With an embarrassed smile, Ning Qianqiu said, “The Sect Leader is making fun of me, indeed, that’s the case.”
Shentu Feng nodded, “You’ve come to your senses!”
The smile on Ning Qianqiu’s face grew thicker, “It’s all thanks to your good leadership, Sect Leader!”
Shentu Feng raised an eyebrow, acknowledging the flattery. Indeed, Ning Qianqiu had come to his senses!
The old Ning Qianqiu was not one to butter up or bring gifts to anyone.
Shentu Feng did not inquire what the gift was but figured if Ning Qianqiu had thought to bring a gift, it would be something quite precious.
“Since the materials are all here, go find Sect Leader Mu. Earlier, that senior said to call him once the materials arrived,” Shentu Feng directed.
Soon, Mu Xingzhi arrived at the Eighteenth Peak, but upon seeing Li Cheng at the summit, his eyes widened in shock.
“He’s entered enlightenment… again!”
So frequent, just what level had the little uncle achieved?
What others saw as a massive opportunity seemed like mere trifles to the little uncle!
Upon close observation, Mu Xingzhi noted the array patterns circulating around Li Cheng and without a doubt, realized he was in a state of enlightenment while grasping formations.
“Last enlightenment session his Alchemy Dao reached an astonishing level, and now he’s in enlightenment for formations, tsk tsk, our sect is about to have an extraordinary Array Master!”
Joy blossomed across Mu Xingzhi’s face as he retreated quietly, not wishing to disturb Li Cheng.
Stepping back a kilometer, Mu Xingzhi began to wait patiently, effectively becoming a protector for the little uncle in case anyone disturbed him.
“Why didn’t Sect Leader Mu go in to find that senior? He seems more like he’s standing guard,” Ning Qianqiu said, puzzled from a distance.
Shentu Feng shifted his gaze, “No harm done. The senior has given his word and will not renege. We simply wait.”
“First Elder, what gift do you plan to offer that senior?” Another Elder asked curiously.
