Mortal Alchemy

Chen Ping hurriedly stopped what he was doing and began to consume the Enlightenment Pills, seizing the time to comprehend the sixth and seventh stances.

If he wasn't prepared enough and ran into a strong opponent early in the Nascent Soul Seed battle and got eliminated, he wouldn't even be able to obtain the remaining three third-order spiritual herbs for the Golden Spirit Guiding God Pill.

He might have underestimated the cruelty of this Nascent Soul Seed battle.

He could possess three third-order magical treasures, so those disciples from top immortal clans definitely had them too.

Third-order magical treasures could be passed down through generations, as long as they weren't broken, they could be used.

Those immortal clans probably had hundreds, or even thousands of years of accumulated heritage.

A month later.

Superior Moon Palace and Bai Jianjia arrived together.

Both of them seemed to have bad expressions and moods.

Superior Moon Palace opened her mouth and said, "Ping'er, there's good news and bad news, which one do you want to hear first?"

Chen Ping was stunned for a moment, then bitterly smiled, "Master, what kind of choice is this?"

Superior Moon Palace took out a jade slip and said:

"The good news is, Ping'er, inside here is information about the disciples in the sect who pose a threat to you this time, all their information is recorded here."

"If you face them, you can use their weaknesses to quickly defeat them."

Chen Ping's eyes lit up slightly, this was indeed good news, at least in this Nascent Soul Seed battle, a joint competition between the four major sects, he could first eliminate the internal threats.

"Next, is the bad news." Superior Moon Palace's face didn't change, her tone was a bit heavy:

"The Sect Master has emerged from seclusion."

Chen Ping was immediately startled and his face turned pale: "The Sect Master has emerged from seclusion?"

"How could it be so fast, wasn't it said that the Sect Master would be in seclusion for a hundred years?"

The last time Chen Ping faced a Golden Core cultivator, he almost died, a thought from the Transformation God Sect Master was enough to make Chen Ping die without a burial place.

Moreover, he was only one step away from advancing to the Golden Core stage, and the Sect Master happened to emerge from seclusion at this time.

The huge invisible pressure made Chen Ping's fate and future suddenly unpredictable, giving him a suffocating feeling that made it hard to breathe.

In the Eastern Xuan Sect for so many years, the Eastern Xuan Sect was indeed the most rule-abiding sect, and he, Chen Ping, after the new Transformation God Sect Master took office, his master broke the Sect Master's rules and accepted him as a disciple.

This was slapping the Transformation God Sect Master in the face!

Bai Jianjia spoke to comfort him: "Junior Brother, don't be afraid, the situation hasn't deteriorated to that point, the Sect Master was forced to emerge from seclusion because of the Bathing Sun Demon Sect, right now, the Sect Masters of the four major sects are meeting to discuss how to deal with the Bathing Sun Demon Sect."

"It will be at least two or three years before they return to the sect and hold the True Inheritance Ceremony, feasting guests from all directions."

Chen Ping fell into silence, two or three years was his final deadline.

What Bai Jianjia meant was that Chen Ping must advance to the Golden Core stage within two or three years, before the Sect Master returned to the sect.

Otherwise, the consequences would be unpredictable.

But, to make matters worse.

Superior Moon Palace opened her mouth and said:

"The people in the sect never intended to distribute those four Eight Treasure Infant Protection Pills to you in the first place."

"Right now, the Sect Master has emerged from seclusion, and they are using this as a threat, wanting to demand those four Eight Treasure Infant Protection Pills."

How else could they threaten him, if he didn't give the Eight Treasure Infant Protection Pills, they would immediately report this matter to the Sect Master.

Conversely, if they got the benefits, they would help Chen Ping conceal the matter and delay time.

Chen Ping suddenly felt difficulty breathing, his chest heaving up and down, his emotions fluctuating strongly.

His face even turned red because of this, the veins on his forehead bulged out like earthworms, his teeth gnashed, and his eyes were full of anger and resentment!

Only one step away!

Only one step away from advancing to the Golden Core stage and resolving this matter.

The group of insatiable dignitaries in the sect, knowing this, insisted on holding Chen Ping by the neck.

Right now, an invisible guillotine was hanging over Chen Ping's head!

At this moment, Chen Ping was really forced into a dead end.

Superior Moon Palace said softly: "Ping'er, the Eight Treasure Vine is still in my hands, whether to give it or not, Master respects your opinion and will not make the decision for you."

If she made the decision for Chen Ping, it would chill Chen Ping's heart.

It would also hurt Bai Jianjia.

Chen Ping spat out a few angry words:

"Give it to them, damn it!"

Either die in silence, or erupt in silence!

Chen Ping, as a sword cultivator, would rather die in an eruption than bow his head to the group of greedy high-level officials in the Eastern Xuan Sect at this point!

"Good!" Superior Moon Palace was very gratified, not minding Chen Ping's swear words: "Worthy of being this Palace's disciple."

"What's eaten into the mouth, how can there be the qualification to spit it out!"

"Ping'er, since you have a dauntless Dao heart, Master will naturally not hold you back."

As a teacher, one must protect the Dao for the disciple and clear away obstacles before they rise.

Superior Moon Palace couldn't control external enemies, but she couldn't even control the internal affairs of the Eastern Xuan Sect.

Superior Moon Palace instructed:

"Little Bai, immediately take Ping'er to the Wonderful Desire Tower to prepare for the Nascent Soul Seed battle."

"Within the sect, I will personally take action to delay things."

As soon as these words came out, Chen Ping immediately understood that it was probably not easy for him to leave the Eastern Xuan Sect at this moment.

Those greedy dignitaries would definitely not let him leave the Eastern Xuan Sect until Chen Ping yielded, or Chen Ping stretched his neck to be slaughtered!

The power of Transformation God, could strike from thousands of miles away, killing people invisibly.

But if Chen Ping left the Eastern Xuan Sect at this moment to participate in the Nascent Soul Seed battle, that Transformation God Sect Master, out of face, would at least have to wait until the end of the Nascent Soul Seed battle before dealing with Chen Ping.

Chen Ping's hatred for those dignitaries grew even stronger!

"If I advance to the Nascent Soul stage one day, I will repay today's hatred ten times a hundredfold!"

"Yes, Master." Bai Jianjia nodded, and immediately summoned the White Jade Flying Boat, the kind that traveled five thousand miles a day.

Then she had Chen Ping hide in one of the secret rooms.

Saying it was leaving the sect, it was actually Chen Ping fleeing in a panic, secretly, many people were watching him make a fool of himself.

This move could be described as extremely embarrassing!

The way the White Jade Flying Boat left at extreme speed, immediately aroused the suspicion of many people: "Hmm?"

And then.

"Clang clang clang!!"

A vast, supreme, boundless sword intent emerged.

Immediately, a big shot issued a voice of rage: "Moon Palace, you!!!"

"Old bastard, disrespecting the old, today I will ask for some guidance." Superior Moon Palace's cold voice spread out.

And even if Chen Ping was hiding in the secret room with formations, he could still feel Superior Moon Palace's terrifying to the extreme, indescribable sword intent.

"Is this the power of the Sword Spirit Root?"

Chen Ping took deep breaths, wanting to calm his mind and emotions.

After he advanced to the Golden Core stage, his ordinary physique would evolve into some kind of Sword Dao Spirit Body.

One day, he might also have some of the power of Superior Moon Palace today.

Suppression and anticipation, unease and future, life and safety.

All depend on this Nascent Soul Seed battle.

Chen Ping's fists clenched, as if to crack his bones.
