Legend of the Transcendent

Chapter 183: Vast Gold Sect's actions

About half an hour later, Yong Ji returned to the Gathering Spring residence, his face completely changed.

Mi Xiaojing went up to him and asked, "What happened?"

Yong Ji gave a bitter smile and said, "The sect's large sword boat was shot down, disciples were heavily injured and killed, and Elder Mu is seriously injured..."

Mi Xiaojing couldn't help but exclaim in surprise. Wang Weijun had just predicted that something was about to happen, and it really did. He also knew that this large sword boat was the sect's largest and best transportation tool. It was the same flying boat that brought them over when the Western Evolutionary Sect was destroyed.

This time, the large sword boat left to transport the sect's potential disciples. Unexpectedly, it was shot down by the experts of the Vast Gold Sect. The disciples on the large sword boat were likely all slaughtered.

Yong Ji said, "Do you still have Nurturing Infant Pills here? Oh, and I also need a Hakutaku Pill!"

Mi Xiaojing couldn't refuse. He said, "Yes, I have both Nurturing Infant Pills and Hakutaku Pills. Elder Yong, are these for treating Elder Mu's injuries?" He was puzzled. He had already given the sect quite a few pills before, so why were they asking for more?

Of course, he couldn't voice these thoughts. Since Yong Ji asked for them, he would give them. Mi Xiaojing wouldn't fuss over this. He took out two glass bottles and handed them to Yong Ji.

Yong Ji took the glass bottles, opened them and inspected them. He found that both were mid-grade pills and nodded in satisfaction. He said, "The sect will compensate you." After saying this, he turned into a sword rainbow again and said, "Wait for me here."

Mi Xiaojing's Divine Sense sank into his Dan Tian, "Old man, what should I do? Should I run away now?"

"Run away now? The enemy hasn't attacked yet. Of course, you should wait until the sect is in complete chaos before running! If you run now, it will be too obvious. Even if the sect values you, once they withstand this attack, they will find you. The consequences then will definitely not be good."

Mi Xiaojing thought for a moment and had to admit that Wang Weijun made sense, "Alright, let's wait then."

"Actually, we won't have to wait long. Since the enemy has started to block us, they should attack soon. Haha, the Heart Sect is in big trouble this time, this is going to be fun..."

Wang Weijun's schadenfreude was evident in his words. He was eager for chaos, fearing that a powerful person might suddenly appear and see through Mi Xiaojing. If that happened, it would be a complete tragedy for him.

The only thing Wang Weijun could do was to remind Mi Xiaojing not to fall into this trap. If Mi Xiaojing was finished, it would mean that he was finished too. Wang Weijun certainly couldn't let this happen.

So, in reality, Wang Weijun was even more nervous than Mi Xiaojing. To seize Mi Xiaojing's body, Mi Xiaojing had to be alive first. If he died, there would be no chance. Moreover, he only had one chance to seize the body. If he missed it, he would be completely finished, disappearing like smoke in thin air, and there would be no more Wang Weijun in this world.

Mi Xiaojing didn't think too much and continued to cultivate.

Soon, Yong Ji returned. He came to Mi Xiaojing, put down a pile of Spirit Stones, and then went back to the bamboo pavilion to cultivate. This was the compensation the sect gave to Mi Xiaojing.

When Mi Xiaojing finished cultivating, he saw a pile of Spirit Stones in front of him. He counted them and found that there were less than a thousand Spirit Stones. It was better than what he had given to the sect, but if he took them to the market, these Spirit Stones wouldn't even be enough to exchange for a Hakutaku Pill, let alone a Nurturing Infant Pill.

However, Mi Xiaojing wasn't upset. After all, the materials for his alchemy were all provided by the sect, and even the alchemy site and the Pill Cauldron belonged to the sect. There was almost no cost, and it was all pure profit. Even if the sect didn't reward him, he wouldn't feel bad. According to his thinking, as long as he could refine pills himself and worked hard, he would have plenty of Spirit Pills in the future.

Moreover, during the previous period of crazy alchemy, he had accumulated a lot of Spirit Pills, including mid-grade pills and even a few high-grade pills that were accidentally successful. Mi Xiaojing used the ancient method of alchemy, which was much more efficient than the current method. If it weren't for his cultivation level not keeping up, the chance of condensing high-grade pills would be greater.

As for low-grade pills, Mi Xiaojing could now produce high-grade pills more than 60% of the time, and there was even a certain chance of producing top-grade pills. Of course, the number of top-grade pills was not many. Every time he got one, he would carefully store it away.

Mi Xiaojing had actually reached the stage where he could attempt to reach the Great Perfection of Foundation Establishment. During this period, he had been accumulating Starry Sky power, but unfortunately, he couldn't get the Starry Sky Pill, a treasure that stored Starry Sky power. He knew in his heart that without the extra Starry Sky power to supplement, it would be very difficult to reach the Great Perfection stage with his own cultivation level alone.

Even Wang Weijun didn't have a solution to this problem. Firstly, he had never practiced the Starry Sky Qianyuan Art. Secondly, he didn't know much about this technique. He had only recently started to study it a little, and he hadn't thoroughly researched it.

If it weren't for the need to win Mi Xiaojing's trust, he wouldn't bother studying this technique.

With no other choice, Mi Xiaojing could only use the most clumsy method, which was to persist in cultivating every day. He believed that as long as he worked hard, he would be able to advance naturally one day.

Wang Weijun also supported this. Mi Xiaojing's progress in the early stage was too fast, and his foundation was inevitably a bit unstable. It was still not too late to settle down at this time, especially the understanding of the realm. So, he didn't say much.

For three whole days, the sect was dead silent. All the cultivators were cultivating like crazy, sharpening their weapons before the battle, even if they weren't fast, they were diligent.

Everyone knew that the big battle was about to come, and many people understood that there was a problem with the sect's mountain protection formation. This time, there would be no sword formation to protect them. They could only face the enemy and drive them away through battle.

On the fourth day, Yong Ji received a message and immediately took Mi Xiaojing to the sect's main hall.

Before they even entered the main hall, Mi Xiaojing saw many cultivators landing. With just a glance, he saw at least a hundred Foundation Establishment and Core Formation experts. He also saw Chen Shouyi among them.Chen Shouyi also saw Mi Xiaojing. His expression was indifferent, his eyes fixed on Mi Xiaojing without any emotion, as if he was looking at a tree or a rock.

Mi Xiaojing suddenly grinned, his mouth moving silently, but the shape of his lips revealed a phrase: "What can you do to me?"

Since Chen Shouyi had been staring at Mi Xiaojing, he instantly understood what he meant. He suddenly laughed too, but his laughter was extremely stiff, a classic case of a forced smile.

Mi Xiaojing's lip shape changed again: "Your smile is so ugly!"

Yong Ji asked curiously, "What are you eating?"

Mi Xiaojing just moved his mouth. Hearing Yong Ji's words, he felt somewhat speechless. He said, "No, I'm not eating anything, my mouth is just itchy..."

Yong Ji almost laughed out loud. He followed Mi Xiaojing's gaze and immediately saw Chen Shouyi.

Seeing Yong Ji looking over, Chen Shouyi quickly turned his stiff old face away. Yong Ji instantly understood and sighed quietly to himself, but he didn't say anything.
