I made the entire cultivation world cry

Chapter 575 Pill Hall (Seeking monthly votes)

Passing through the tree hole beneath the immortal tree, the space trembled and distorted once more. After the familiar dizziness subsided, a medicinal fragrance wafted over.

Before them lay a large complex of buildings, with nine enormous alchemy furnaces, each a different color and as massive as mountains, standing in a ring. The furnaces were ancient and heavy, and even after countless ages, they still radiated a scorching heat and immense pressure.

Countless palaces and alchemy chambers, some intact and some collapsed, were built around the nine great alchemy furnaces. The carved beams and painted rafters still faintly show the splendor of the Kunlun Immortal Palace in the past, but most of them are covered with dust, the walls are charred black, and they have been eroded by thousands of years.

Boom!

A loud noise suddenly came from high above. Danxi immediately shielded everyone in front of her. When they looked up, they saw several figures colliding with each other in the sky.

Blood Shadow darted and dodged like a ghost, with poisonous mist, sword energy, and precious light relentlessly pursuing her. It was Poison Lord and others who were encircling and intercepting Blood Rainbow Dress. On the other hand, Jin Wanguan, who had the highest cultivation level, waited on the side while fanning himself with a palm leaf fan, without getting involved.

The violent power swept across the surrounding area, but it did not affect the area below at all. The entire Pill Hall area was shrouded in a layer of ever-flowing fire net, which was woven together by the essence of the pill fire emanating from the nine main furnaces.

The aftershocks of the fierce aerial battle continued to crash against the fire net, causing the entire fire net to tremble violently, sparks to fly like rain, and a muffled thunderous sound to be heard, but it still could not break through.

On the ground, the dozens of Nascent Soul cultivators who had entered earlier or had just been teleported here had already scattered.

Ignoring the battle in the sky, they raced against time to search the remaining alchemy chambers.

"It's really lively!" Long Ri looked around and exclaimed in amazement. "This area alone is bigger than our entire mountain gate. I wonder if there are any pills left behind."

Danxi's gaze fell on Jiang Yurong. "Yurong, there might be some pills or spiritual items here that can repair your dantian and sea of ​​consciousness. Let's search carefully."

Jiang Yurong nodded silently.

Jiang Yi quickly surveyed the environment. The fire net isolated the Nascent Soul battlefield, but there were a large number of Nascent Soul cultivators on the ground, creating a chaotic situation.

“Master, there are many alchemy rooms here, and the search area is too large. In order to save time, why don’t we split up? I will be in one group with Senior Sister Longri, and you can be in another group.”

Danxi has the highest cultivation level, so it would be safest for her to take care of Jiang Yurong, who is still recovering from her injuries.

Jiang Yi and Long Ri are both strong fighters, and together they can handle most battles at the Nascent Soul level.

Danxi nodded, and Longri immediately released several silver mist insects that landed on their shoulders. "If there is a strong enemy, we can use the silver mist insects to communicate with each other."

Since she began cultivating, Long Ri has only nurtured Silver Mist Insects, but her Silver Mist Insects have incorporated many characteristics, making them powerful in attack, defense, and support.

Danxi immediately took Jiang Yurong and transformed into a streak of light, heading towards several relatively remote and better-preserved areas of the Pill Palace.

"Ayi, where are we going?"

Although Long Ri was highly skilled, he was not good at thinking and planning, so he relied on Jiang Yi to make decisions.

Jiang Yi released Hong Li, saying, "Hong Li, we're in your territory now. Lead the way."

As soon as the little fox Hongli appeared, she raised her nose and sniffed the air. After so many years of alchemy, her nose had become extremely sensitive to all kinds of spiritual herbs and pills. She could distinguish any spiritual herb she had ever seen with just a light sniff.

The various mixed smells here visibly excited Hong Li, but what excited her even more than the spiritual medicine was the scent of a new strange fire.

She hid it very well, but her talent of 'Flame Heart' couldn't be hidden!

Ouch!

Without Jiang Yi saying a word, Xiao Hongli sped off towards the strange fire aura, not wanting to be beaten to it.

Jiang Yi and Long Ri followed closely behind, passing through a series of messy alchemy chambers, and arrived at the center of the area. Before them was a huge circular platform constructed of warm white jade, with Bagua runes clearly engraved on it, flowing with a faint spiritual light.

Looking at the grooves left on the ground, it's clear that there should have been a cauldron here, but it's empty now.

Around the platform, four puppets, each three zhang tall and clad in dark red copper armor, wielding enormous fire forks, stood like statues, their auras heavy and dangerous.

"Ouch!"

Hongli hurriedly circled the Bagua alchemy platform, her small nose twitching incessantly. Finally, she stopped at the center of the platform and frantically scratched at the floor tiles with her claws, but the floor tiles were like a sponge that absorbed all her energy.

"Can't open it?"

Long Ri also stepped forward and tried to use the Silver Mist Insects to gnaw at the ground, but it was still useless.

Hongli suddenly thought of something, jumped onto Jiang Yi's shoulder, her emerald green eyes surveying the nine large cauldrons around her. She lowered her head to think for a moment, then suddenly raised her head.

"I remember now! It's that one! Nine Revolutions Return to One! Wind Gate! I saw it during the Kunlun Pill Cauldron Trial!"

Jiang Yi instantly understood, "The Nine Revolutions Pill Fire Array? It requires closing the air vents of the nine main furnaces in a specific order within ten breaths to activate the core main cauldron?"

She looked up at the nine towering furnaces, each with a clearly visible air vent on its top that controlled the flow of air.

The problem is that the air vents are huge, and these nine giant furnaces are scattered across the vast Dan Hall area, far apart from each other. It is impossible for one person to shut them all down within the allotted time.

Moreover, with so many people here, even if she goes to great lengths to close the wind gate and find the main cauldron, the contents inside probably won't end up in her hands.

Is this main cauldron a node of the Nine Cauldrons Boundary-Stabilizing Array?
Jiang Yi felt that it wasn't true; the Kunlun Dao Seal was still motionless in her sea of ​​consciousness.

Jiang Yi's mind raced, and she immediately used the silver mist insect that Long Ri had placed on her shoulder to quickly relay her discovery to Dan Xi.

“Master, Senior Sister Longri and I have arrived at the Central Bagua Altar. There is something under the altar, but the core can only be opened by closing the air vents of the nine outer main furnaces in the order of ‘Nine Revolutions Return to One’. Please go to the main furnace closest to you immediately and try to close the air vent to see how much power is required.”

After sending the message, Jiang Yi did not wait. She released all the demons and used the Fu Liu Xi Bing to draw concealment runes on their bodies.

As Fu Liu wielded the Qiankun Brush, the auras of the demons instantly became blurred, as if they had blended into the surrounding environment.

Long Ri watched this scene from the side. No matter how many times she watched it, she still couldn't tell that Fu Liu was a puppet. She felt that he was no different from a living person.

"This place is chaotic. Spread out and immediately search the surrounding alchemy chambers that haven't been completely destroyed! Remember, safety first! If you encounter a powerful enemy vying for it, prioritize your own survival. If you can get it, take it; if not, retreat. Do not engage in a direct confrontation!"

Jiang Yi instructed in a deep voice that the gains on the periphery were equally important; she couldn't focus on the big picture and neglect the small details, or she would end up with nothing.

"Yes!" The demons accepted the order and silently disappeared into the surrounding ruined palace complex like ghosts.

After arranging the demons, a message came back from Master that closing the Wind Gate required the power of a Nascent Soul level cultivator, and even with Master's current cultivation level, he would have to use at least 70% of his power.

Jiang Yi sighed inwardly, as expected. The illusion technique on his body faded away like ripples on water, restoring his original appearance.

"Senior Sister Longri, let Hongli take you to search the surrounding area first. I'll go and talk to these Nascent Soul seniors."

Jiang Yi leaped into the air, transforming into a dazzling sword light that shot straight into the sky!
She did not penetrate the giant net of fire that separated the high-altitude battlefield from the ground area, but hovered below the fire net, just enough for the Nascent Soul cultivators fighting fiercely in the high sky to see her clearly.

"Esteemed seniors! Please cease your hostilities and heed my words!"
