Chapter 166 - Who Exactly Is He?

Chapter 166: Who Exactly Is He?

While Ye Xuan previously gave the pills for free, the disciples had become aware of their magical effects. Naturally, they expected to have to pay for the pills going forth.

“Elder Ye, do you have any more pills? I’m willing to buy them for 10,000 top-grade spirit stones.”

“You want to buy such a pill for 10,000 top-grade spirit stones? I’m willing to pay 50,000!”

“100,000 top-grade spirit stones!”

“200,000 spirit stones!”

The price was getting higher and higher. It turned out that many of the unconscious were important figures in the various sects, such as the elders and the son of the sect master. If they could save them, wouldn’t they make a great contribution?

No matter how many spirit stones were spent, the sect would probably be willing to accommodate.

Everyone’s eyes were filled with hope as they waited for Ye Xuan to make the final decision. Ye Xuan was somewhat puzzled and asked, “What are you all doing? I have plenty of these pills, so there’s no need to waste your energy fighting over them.”

As far as the eye could see, there were at least hundreds if not thousands of people infected by the black Qi. Could Ye Xuan take out so many pills at once?

Under everyone’s suspicious gaze, Ye Xuan took out countless filth removal pills.

“There’s no time to waste. Quickly give them some. This thing isn’t worth much.”

Ye Xuan’s calm tone made everyone have the illusion that the pill was actually extremely common, and they were the ones making a fuss.

At that moment, everyone in the secret realm and outside fell into silence.

The same thought arose in their minds at the same time. Who exactly was he?

Such a powerful black fog could even seal a secret realm and parasitize human bodies, turning them into immortal monsters. It was extremely heaven-defying no matter how one looked at it.

Yet, Ye Xuan had casually taken out a pill that could remove it. They had thought that it was a rare treasure with an immeasurable value, but they didn’t expect Ye Xuan to say it was worthless.

Seeing so many pills, everyone had mixed feelings. If Ye Xuan had so many, it was no wonder he would say such things.

Their numbers were overwhelming, just like the wildflowers and grass on the roadside.

Mo Jianming was probably the only one who was calm outside the secret realm. After all, he had seen similar scenes before. Otherwise, he would be like the others at the moment, as if he had been living like a frog in the well.

“Have we fallen behind, or has the world become a fantasy?” someone asked uncertainly. “Is such a powerful pill not considered valuable in the modern day?”

The pill that Ye Xuan called worthless was the best thing in the world.

The breathing of the people from the Seven Great Sects became rapid. From his performance in the secret realm, Ye Xuan was definitely not a simple person.

If they could bring such a person into their own sect…

One of the grand elders spoke without hesitation. “This kid is upright and clear-headed. I think he’s very suitable to be my personal disciple.”

The person beside him didn’t give him any face and said, “Pfft, you shameless old man. You’re only interested in those pills of his, right?”

“I think he’s suitable to join our Infinity Sect.”

“Don’t tell me he refined those pills himself. If that’s the case, he should come to our Pill Refining Sect. That way, he won’t waste his extraordinary talent. Who knows, he might become a future alchemy saint.”

“If you ask me, I think there is no future in alchemy. He should focus on cultivation. Our Dao Seeking Sect is perfect for him.”

For a while, several grand elders debated with each other, hoping to take Ye Xuan as a disciple.

The other large sects were also in the same state. They argued until their faces were red and they almost started fighting. In the end, Mo Jianming came forward to stop them.

“All right, if you guys have the time to snatch talents here, why don’t you think of a way to quickly rescue them from the secret realm?”

The only unhappy one on the scene was probably the Misty Illusory Manor. The sect master and a few grand elders looked at each other with ugly expressions. After all, they had enmity with Ye Xuan.

Moreover, Ye Xuan had the Penglai Immortal Stone with him. If he really entered those big sects, it would be much more difficult to make a move in the future, and their actions might even be exposed.

Meanwhile, Ye Xuan didn’t know that he had been targeted by countless people before he even got out of the secret realm.

Everyone took action and fed the pills to those who were still unconscious. Soon, they woke up. Other than their bodies being a little weak, there was nothing unusual.

“There’s no time to lose. Let’s quickly find the array and leave this place.”

Ye Xuan was a little worried.

They were in the enemy’s base. Although they were disguised, they had made such a big movement. If they were detected, things would not be good.

It turned out that Ye Xuan’s worry was correct.

In the depths of the underground palace, the source of the black fog was sleeping. The surrounding temperature was frighteningly low, and it was as black as ink. The power of evil even caused space to distort.

In order to avoid the Heavenly Dao’s investigation, he spent most of his time sleeping and couldn’t personally capture Ye Xuan. He could only send the black fog out. Otherwise, with his ability, dealing with Ye Xuan would be as easy as pie.

That was also why Ye Xuan was not discovered when he stepped into the underground palace. The black fog was an extremely important incarnation. As most of the black fog dissipated into thin air, it finally caught the sleeping figure’s attention.

“Who dares disrupt my plans?”

The surrounding black fog instantly became violent, to the point that even the space could not withstand the menacing force. A storm quickly blew, and countless spatial turbulence formed, spreading in all directions.

The violent power destroyed everything in the surroundings. Even if an almighty expert stepped in, it was likely that they would die instantly.

The black mist was closely connected to the mastermind and consumed his energy. Otherwise, how could those people have turned into undying monsters in such a short time?

As a result, when Ye Xuan used the filth removal pill to destroy the black fog, the power of the origin was also affected.
