Chapter 1397 - 720: Fragrance of Medicine
...
"Wait!" Yan Xiaobao said. He looked serious, stepping forward and taking a deep breath through his nose. "There’s something here. That smell... do you sense the fragrance of medicine?"
The Bloodline Master from Little Swamp Peak frowned. He sneezed coldly and walked towards Yan Xiaobao, but despite that, Yan Xiaobao suddenly moved, appearing next to what used to be a brick in the pill furnace wall a moment later. He looked shaken and incredulous as he pulled the brick aside, revealing a pill beneath, emitting a five-colored glow!
It also emitted a strong medicinal fragrance, combined with the five-colored glow, attracting everyone’s gaze. Their minds began to whirl, many even gasping with shock or bursting into tears!
"Is that a Level 5 Spiritual Medicine?"
"I’ve never seen Level 5 Spiritual Medicine before. Even Pill Sect, only a few people can concoct them. Level 5 Spiritual Medicine is a priceless treasure!"
"When concocting Level 5 Spiritual Medicine, the appearance of five-colored glow is one of the signs!"
"Heavens! I can’t believe this is actually Level 5 Spiritual Medicine!"
As the crowd erupted into a frenzy, Yan Xiaobao mustered his courage, extending his hand to grab the pill. He never imagined that he would eventually concoct Level 5 Spiritual Medicine, only wanting to simply consume it and run. However, with so many people present, it was impossible.
Yan Xiaobao was not the only one shocked. The Bloodline Master from Little Swamp Peak, Great Elder, and Bloody Elders stood aside, all gasping.
When he saw Yan Xiaobao pick up the spiritual medicine, the Bloodline Master suddenly burst into laughter, his murderous aura disappearing.
"A misunderstanding, that’s all. Misunderstanding hahaha... I was just pulling your leg, Master Narfat." The Bloodline Master hurried forward, a sincere smile on his face.
Yan Xiaobao snorted coldly. However, he couldn’t think of anything to say, as he was already racking his brains trying to figure out what to do next.
"How about it, Master Nightcrypt: Little Swamp Peak wants to triple our previous compensation!" The Bloodline Master, Great Elder, and Bloody Elders hurriedly gathered around Yan Xiaobao.
At that moment, Song Junwan, who had been standing aside, stepped forward calmly: "How dare you threaten one of our Middle Peak Cultivators."
The elder’s heart started racing, and the Blood Master’s face twisted into an extremely unpleasant expression.
As the two parties faced off, an ancient voice suddenly emanated from Ancestor Peak.
"Nightcrypt has concocted Level 5 Spiritual Medicine and is the true choice of the Blood Sect. Let him be appointed as Middle Peak’s Bloody Elder!"
Simultaneously, a blurry figure appeared overhead, an old man in a blood-colored robe. The incredible pressure emanating from him shocked everyone in the area, who spontaneously bowed their heads in formal greeting, clasping their hands tightly.
"Regarding the pill, it belongs to Little Swamp Peak. However, Little Swamp Peak will prepare the necessary materials and personally craft a bloody robe for Nightcrypt!!"
The old man was the Song Family Patriarch. As soon as Yan Xiaobao realized who it was, he took a deep breath and then bowed with clasped hands.
No one dared defy the Song Family Patriarch’s order.
However, the Patriarch was not finished speaking. His calm voice continued to reverberate through the sect. "It’s great that everyone is gathered here because I’m going to announce three important messages!
"First. In eight days, the cultivators of the four peaks will all sacrifice some Qi blood to summon the Great Witch Demon of Bloodstream Sect!"
"Second. In a month, the trial by fire for the position of Middle Peak Bloodline Master will begin!"
"Third. We will soon go to war!"
As the Song Family Patriarch looked around at the gathered cultivators, gasps could be heard, and fierce auras began to form.
"War!!"
"War!!" Everyone started shouting at the top of their lungs, causing the entire Blood Sect to shake. Although Yan Xiaobao shouted like everyone else in the crowd, he actually felt very anxious inside.
"Well, you’re all dismissed!" The Song Family Patriarch looked at Nightcrypt, smiling, and then turned and disappeared.
Everyone was filled with confidence about the impending war, and each person returned to their respective peaks. Though Yan Xiaobao was reluctant to give up the Level 5 Spiritual Medicine, he had no choice but to hand it over to the Blood Master of Little Swamp Peak. Then, he left with Song Junwan, returning to Zhongshan Peak.
On the return to Zhongshan Peak, Song Junwan didn’t say much, but her eyes flickered with a cold light. As for Yan Xiaobao, he was lost in his thoughts and didn’t want to say much either. When they finally arrived, Song Junwan looked at him and said: "Nightcrypt, in the trial by fire for the position of Middle Peak Bloodline Master, I want you to be my Dharma Guardian to help me win the championship!
"The trial by fire will be dangerous, so you don’t need to give me an answer now. I will prepare in secluded meditation. When I come out, you can tell me your decision." She looked at him deeply, then pointed upwards.
Yan Xiaobao watched her leave, his complex emotions twisting his heart. Ultimately, he found himself back in the Immortal Cave, sitting cross-legged, more worried than ever.
According to what the Song Family Patriarch just said, Yan Xiaobao realized that all the discussions within the Bloodline Clan led to a decision. The war with the Spirit Stream Sect would occur in just a few months.
