After grabbing the storage bags, Lin Xuan carefully searched through the cave to see if he had missed anything and then left the valley.
As for the unfortunate Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators, they just lost too much life force. After a few hours, they should wake up, so he doesn't have to worry about them
This was also the best outcome for Lin Xuan. Wu Yun'er is only one person. God knows that if there are any more important figures like her.
At first, he was a little worried, if they had fallen in this valley, then the sect behind them would probably vent their anger in him.
This is naturally something Lu Xuan doesn't want to see.
Now that they're still alive, and although their cultivation base will definitely regress, it has nothing to do with him.
Thinking like this, he returned to Spirit Pill Mountain half an hour later.
When he first came out, he didn't pay any attention. But after listening to the words of two cultivators from Thunder Cloud Mountain. When he approached the mountain entrance, Lin Xuan deliberately released his Spiritual Sense and searched around.
Sure enough, apart from a few auras, there were no cultivators nearby. It seems that the major sects of the two factions had already withdrawn. The remaining small shrimps should be some Rogue Cultivators.
Concerning these people, Lin Xuan naturally didn't care. Except for the three giants and the Extreme Demon Cave under the control of the Extreme Demon Venerable. If the other forces wanted to make move against Spirit Medicine Mountain, it would only be like striking a stone with an egg.
Since the danger has lifted, then he can start cultivating confidently. Lin Xuan returned to his Cave Mansion and placed the Extreme Yin Spirit Array. He then took the Hundred Soul Banner and a Jade slip and started practicing the Heavenly Devil Corpse technique...
What Lin Xuan didn't know that while he was cultivating assiduously, in a secret cave somewhere in the back of Spirit Pill Mountain.
"Martial Uncle!"
An old man with a white beard and hair was standing respectfully. He was wearing a white Daoist robe and looked like an immortal. He was the current sect master of Spirit Pill Mountain, Daoist Tong Yu.
This old man has been famous for centuries. However, not for his cultivation base, but his alchemy. Although it can't be compared with the founder of the sect, Daoist Master Tian Chen. But it still reached a superb level.
He wouldn't dare say it about a High-grade Pill, but if it's just a Mid-grade Pill, then he has a 50% chance at success.
Compared with the difficulty of alchemy, this is already a very remarkable achievement.
As for his cultivation base, as a Sect Master, it can almost be said to be abysmal. Only in the Foundation Establishment Middle-Stage, can't even be compared with the heads of some small clans.
Well of course! It's all just on the surface.
Since the waters in Spirit Pill Mountain run deep, could Daoist Tong Yu, who's the sect master really be so incompetent?
In fact, this old man is simply a genius, not only is he very accomplished in alchemy. He also has a very deep cultivation and is in the Core Formation Late-stage.
As for why people can't see it?
That's because he hid it very well. Of course, he doesn't have the amazing Qi Concealment technique recorded in the Nine Heavens Profound Art. But even a rookie like Lin Xuan can refine the miraculous Hidden Spirit Pill, let alone Tong Yu.
Although he didn't have the Blue Star Sea's abilities to purify a High-Grade Red Silk Grass, but with his skill in alchemy, he could easily find some alternative medicinal materials.
The Hidden Spirit Pill isn't a very advanced thing, so it's very easy to refine.
But at this moment, there was no need to hide.
The one-eyed old man in front of him was emitting terrifying Spiritual Power from his body.
A Nascent Soul Stage old monster!
And it's not the Initial Stage, but similar to the Extreme Demon Venerable, it had reached the Middle-Stage.
It should be noted that along the path of immortality, cultivation becomes more difficult as one goes by. Especially after condensing a Nascent Soul, it's hard to imagine how slowly the growth of one's strength would be.
Throughout the ages, numerous geniuses reached the end of their life. But could only linger at the Nascent Soul Initial Stage, hoping to advance to the middle-stage. In addition to talent, one also needs countless fortuitous encounters. The hardships during the process aren't something that can be understood by outsiders.
The lucky ones are just rare.
Moreover, one's strength at the Nascent Soul Middle-Stage is a lot higher than the Initial Stage. This is also the reason why the Big Three were afraid of the Extreme Demon Venerable.
With the strength of the Big Three, they only had Elders of the Nascent Soul Initial Stage. But they didn't expect that there would be such a fierce guy among the unknown experts of Spirit Pill Mountain.
The old man slowly opened his eyes, although only one eye was left, it looked divine. He glanced at Tong Yu in front of him and asked, "Have they all retreated?"
"Yes, Martial Uncle!" Daoist Tong Yu respectfully bowed his head, "After learning that this sect had no Heavenly Dust Pills, there was no need to stay any longer, and they didn't want to become our enemies."
"Hm, you did a great job in this matter, but I heard that the news was deliberately leaked out through a few traitors?"The old man changed the subject and said.
"Yes, Martial Uncle."Tong Yu had a sly expression appear on his face, "This Sect is famous for its alchemy. Although our doors are open to all kinds of people. The two major factions have never stopped trying to win over our alchemists…"
"Well, it's nothing strange. After all, it's better for the resources and skills to be in your control, and if they're in your hands, you'd be more at ease."The one-eyed old man snorted and didn't take it seriously.
"Although most of our disciples were not tempted, there were still some not strong-minded people who became traitors under the lure of heavy profits promised by the other party." Even while talking about this matter, he still looked indifferent.
"Mm."The old man nodded; "Say it…"
"Although I had already noticed it, I didn't want to alert the enemy. Secondly, the alchemy skills of those guys are really limited. Even if they betray us, our Spirit Pill Mountain wouldn't suffer much loss."
"But I heard that you promoted those guys. Why is that?"The old man's face flashed with a trace of doubt.
"Martial Uncle knows that I'm loyal to this sect. This move is for another purpose."
