Preparing for the Competition

The first floor of the Eight Treasures Pavilion mainly consisted of medicinal herbs. There were only a small number of finished pills, and they were all low-grade Ordinary Pills.

As for intermediate and high-level Ordinary Pills and even Spirit Pills, they were mainly sold on the second floor.

However, considering his big brother He Wenfeng’s condition, his three Live Gates were broken, and his spirit points were blocked. Ordinary Pills were useless.

Even in the Eight Treasures Pavilion, no pills could save him.

After all, the Life Gate was the foundation of every martial artist. It was like a hole in the bottom of a water bottle that could not be blocked.

He could only watch helplessly as the spiritual energy in his body dissipated, his physical body weakened, and finally lost its vitality, dying of old age!

However, that was to ordinary people. In He Chuan’s eyes, repairing the Life Gate was not difficult.

Not to mention anything else, Treasure Pill could easily resolve it.

Unfortunately, after his rebirth, although he had the attainments of refining precious pills, his Pill Fire was only at the red level. It was difficult to even refine Spirit Pills, let alone Treasure Pills.

Even the Eight Treasures Pavilion didn’t sell Treasure Pills, let alone other places.

However, Treasure Pills were hard to find, but they weren’t irreplaceable.

He thought of three Spirit Pills that were enough to replace it.

Spirit Stabilizing Pill, Meridian Condensing Pill!

And Yao Wenhao’s original creation, the Star Stabilizing Pill!

Yao Qiankun has already introduced the effects of the Star Stabilizing Pill in detail.

Although it was mainly used to help Heavenly Surge Realm martial artists stabilize the Stargate, it was still not enough.

However, the essence of its medicinal effect was to consolidate the foundation and nurture the essence. It was most suitable for He Wenfeng, whose Life Gate was broken, and his spirit point was damaged.

As for the first two types of pills, they were both top-grade Prdinary Pills. They were sacred pills for martial artists to repair their meridians and stabilize his dantian.

As the name suggested, the Spirit Stabilizing Pill was used to consolidate spiritual energy.

Its greatest medicinal effect was to help martial artists ensure that the spiritual energy did not leak out and was consolidated in the body.

This pill could ensure that He Wenfeng’s lost spiritual energy would stop

leaking out and stay in his body.

Meridian Condensing Pill could improve a martial artist’s eight extraordinary meridians, strengthen them, and become indestructible.

In the end, the so-called Nine Life Gates for Life Cultivation Realm martial artists were the twelve acupoints in the Eight Extraordinary Meridians. The Meridian Condensing Pill could consolidate the meridians, so naturally, it could also consolidate the acupoints.

He Wenfeng was a martial artist at the initial stage of the Life Cultivation Realm, so he still had six Life Gates that had yet to be opened. With the help of the Spirit Stabilizing Pill, as long as he opened a few more Life Gates, it would not be a problem for him to store spiritual energy in his body.

As long as the spiritual energy in He Wenfeng’s body did not leak out, then he could use the medicinal effect of the Meridian Condensing Pill to repair the damaged Life Gate.,

Then, with the characteristics of the Stabilizing Star Pill, the repaired Life Gate was completely stabilized!

At that time, He Wenfeng’s injuries would naturally be solved!

However, the Spirit Stabilizing Pill and the Meridian Condensing Pill were both ancient secret pills. Although the medicinal ingredients required were not rare, the pill formula was extremely precious.

There are none in the Eight Treasure Pavilion.

Therefore, there was no place to buy these two pills. They could only be refined personally!

Under Yao Qiankun’s lead, He Chuan began to pick and filter the herbs on the first floor.

Since he was refining pills for his Big Brother, he naturally had to choose the best medicinal herbs.

Yao Qiankun was looking forward to this scene.

Ever since she met He Chuan, he had never seen him pick herbs so seriously.

Clearly, he was preparing to refine the medicinal pill with his heart this time.

Yao Qiankun had already witnessed He Chuan’s alchemy attainments. He was filled with admiration and respect from the bottom of his heart.

He was naturally looking forward to the opportunity to witness the alchemy techniques again.

“Pick out the medicinal ingredients for refining the Star Stabilizing Pill!” He Chuan selected the required herbs and instructed Yao Qiankun.

“Big Brother wants to refine Star Stabilizing Pill?” Yao Qiankun was at a loss.

He Chuan, who only had a Red Grade Pill Fire, was unable to concoct the low-grade Spirit Pill that his father had created.

“Follow my instructions and find me a pill room.” He Chuan was obviously too lazy to explain and said indifferently.

Yao Qiankun did not dare to say anything more. He ordered the servants to prepare the medicinal herbs for refining the Star Stabilizing Pill and then brought He Chuan to the pill room of the Eight Treasures Pavilion.

At this moment, several figures emitting sharp auras stepped into the Eight Treasures Pavilion.

“Where is Yao Wenhao? Come out and welcome us!”

The originally lively hall fell silent, so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.

“Eldest Senior Brother, it’s been many years!” Yao Wenhao, who had already changed into a brand new pill robe, did not mind the slightly rude words of the person who came. Instead, he welcomed him with a smile.

“It’s been a long time since we last met, but Junior Brother is still as calm and polite as ever!” A middle-aged man in a long black robe walked out with a smile. He was thin, had a haggard face, and had black eyes.

His entire body emitted a sinister aura; even his laughter contained traces of sinister coldness.

This person was Yao Wenhao’s eldest senior brother, the test alchemist sent by the Eight Treasures Pavilion headquarters, Gui Tuo!

“Senior Martial Brother Gui Tuo is still as elegant as ever!” Yao Wenhao also cupped his hands and returned the greeting. However, his gaze passed Gui Tuo and landed on the old man with a head full of white hair and a dragon-headed walking stick. His pupils constricted.

Master Sheng Kang!

“Master Sheng has personally come, yet this Junior was unable to welcome him.” Yao Wenhao respectfully bowed to the old man.

“Now that you are the Head Pavilion of the branch, there is no need to be so polite!” Sheng Kang stopped with his walking stick and waved his hand kindly.

“Even Wenhao didn’t dare to forget his teachings. If he had known that the invigilator was the Master Sheng, Wenhao would have waited outside the city gates!” Yao Wenhao’s attitude was humble.

Sheng Kang was one of the Treasure Pill Masters in the Eight Treasures Pavilion headquarters. He was conferred the title of Grandmaster by the Eight Treasures Pavilion headquarters and was highly respected.

Yao Wenhao did not expect that the Eight Treasures Pavilion would actually send Master Sheng Kang as an invigilator.

It seemed that the headquarters placed great importance on this assessment!

“Master Sheng is here, and you don’t go out of the city to welcome him?” Gui Tuo prepared to hug Yao Wenhao’s shoulders.

“Eldest Senior Brother and I are Brothers. Eldest Senior Brother is like coming home.” Yao Wenhao calmly avoided Gui Tuo and cupped his hands in greeting.

“Be careful not to make a prophecy come true! If you can’t pass this year’s assessment, this will be my home from now on!” Gui Tuo didn’t feel embarrassed. He withdrew his arm and grinned.

The two of them had just met, and their rivalry was severe. They had often fought in the headquarters back then.

“We’re all family. We have to know how to be harmonious and make money!” Sheng Kang waved his hand.

Moreover, even if they wanted to fight, now was not the time!

Gui Tuo restrained his arrogance while Yao Wenhao’s expression became respectful.

Since both of them were present, Sheng Kang immediately announced the start of the competition. After all, there was still the Empire Branch that needed him to take the assessment.

Yao Wenhao didn’t say anything else. He immediately led everyone to the pill room in the Eight Treasures Pavilion and prepared to compete.

The pill room was prepared by Yao Wenhao in advance. Two high-quality pill furnaces were inside and all kinds of medicinal herbs were available.

Gui Tuo chose the pill furnace first.

Yao Wenhao smiled without saying a word as he walked towards the other pill furnace.

With He Chuan’s guidance earlier, he was quite confident in today’s assessment.

After all, through He Chuan’s explanation, his alchemy skills had improved by quite a bit.

Seeing the two of them being so self-aware, Sheng Kang did not say much and directly led the others to sit at the side.

Sheng Kang raised his walking stick and waved it in the air between the two of them. A blue barrier appeared and directly separated the pill room from each other.

“The rules are the same as before, so I won’t go into detail. Get ready to begin!” Sheng Kang sat quietly and watched, watching both sides. Gui Tuo started to select the herbs and prepare to refine the pill..
