Start from Panlong and kill through the heavens

Rean's killing of two Dou Zong powerhouses cemented his title as the Great Demon King of the Pill Realm.

The name Li Mu was even more widely known than that of the Medicine Fairy and Chai Yusheng.

Although the Medicine Fairy and Chai Yusheng were powerful, they rarely attacked alchemists below the Dou Huang level. But Li En would kill anyone who dared to provoke him.

It's worth mentioning that Han Yao, who had previously tried to drive Li En away at the Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion, also died at Li En's hands. He crushed Han Yao like an ant, and didn't even know that the person he killed was Han Yao.

It was only after Gong Li mentioned it that Li En learned that this guy named Han Yao had already died at his hands.

Gong Li didn't have a strong liking for Han Yao. The reason she got close to Han Yao was simply because Han Yao was strong and had a high status.

She was extremely fond of strength, and when she witnessed Han Yao being killed by Li En with ease, she felt no emotion whatsoever. If Li En were to be defeated by someone else one day, her feelings for him might gradually fade.

Li En wreaked havoc in the Pill Realm, constantly plundering medicinal herbs to increase his points. He now possessed more than ten kinds of Grade 8 medicinal herbs.

Gong Li followed behind Li En and also obtained a large number of seventh-grade medicinal herbs, as well as four kinds of eighth-grade medicinal herbs.

As time passed, the medicinal herbs in the Pill Realm had been almost completely harvested, but the most core area had also been fully opened.

The core area is only a few dozen kilometers in radius. Within this small area, there are dozens of Grade 8 medicinal herbs, and the most precious of them is a Grade 9 medicinal herb, the Heavenly Thunder Soul-Devouring Bamboo, which is the main ingredient for refining the Grade 9 pill, the Soul-Devouring Pill.

After a month of fierce fighting, only about a hundred of the thousands who entered the Pill Realm have survived. These hundred people are now all crammed into an area of ​​several dozen miles.

Without a doubt, the most brutal battle is about to begin.

Despite their fame and strength, Rean, the Medicine Fairy, and Chai Yusheng need to be extra careful, especially now, because they could very well become the target of everyone's attacks.

The remaining hundred or so people either possess the strength of a Dou Zong expert, or are extremely powerful Dou Huangs, or have various trump cards.

When all these people gathered together and turned their attention to Rean and his two companions, none of them dared to show themselves, as this force was simply too overwhelming.

However, Rean and his two companions couldn't just stand by and watch them seize the ultimate ninth-grade medicinal herb, the Heavenly Thunder Soul-Devouring Bamboo. So, the three of them decided to temporarily join forces and deal with these small fry first.

Above the sky, sword energy shone like a rainbow.

Dressed in pristine white, Rean conjured countless sword shadows with a flick of his finger, transforming them into a dazzling galaxy that cascaded down his back.

Wherever the sword light passed, space shattered inch by inch. Before the three Dou Huangs could even raise their weapons to block, they were shredded into a bloody mist.

The Medicine Fairy, dressed in red, moved her delicate hands with incredible speed, causing a torrent of seven-colored poisonous miasma to gush forth from the cauldron.

The mist, though seemingly ethereal, instantly dissolved the flesh and blood of the two Dou Zong experts who were at the forefront.

Suddenly, twelve golden needles shot out from her sleeve, each trailing a ghostly blue fire thread at its end. They intertwined in the air to form a deadly net, pinning five enemies to the void.

Chai Yusheng clasped her hands together, and nine crimson suns appeared behind her.

Under the blazing light, the protective auras of the seven Dou Huang were like snow meeting boiling water. He suddenly stepped forward, his fist carrying the roar of dragons and tigers, blasting three enemies, along with their weapons, into dust.

The ground collapsed in the aftershocks, creating a huge crater ten feet deep.

The enemy's formation was thrown into chaos. A purple-robed Dou Zong unleashed his natal magic weapon, an ancient bronze bell that swelled to the size of a mountain in the wind.

The Medicine Fairy sneered and flicked her finger, sending three vermilion pills flying from the cauldron. Upon striking the bell wall, they exploded into a shower of green flames, melting the earth-rank magic treasure into molten iron. Taking advantage of the moment, Rean pointed his sword at the heavens, and a hundred-foot-long phantom sword descended from the clouds, enveloping over twenty enemies within a destructive sword domain.

The survivors were terrified and shattered their escape talismans to flee. Chai Yusheng's eyes flashed with golden light as she reached out to grab the gray-clad man who had fled the furthest.

Suddenly, a giant flaming hand appeared in the void, crushing the Dou Zong expert's bones until they cracked, ultimately turning him into a meteor that plummeted towards the distant mountains. When the smoke cleared, only the remnants of soldiers and pools of blood that had not yet congealed remained.

With the combined efforts of Li En, the Medicine Fairy, and Chai Yusheng, they completely annihilated over a hundred Dou Huang and Dou Zong warriors, killing or wounding most of them. The remaining warriors had no choice but to flee for their lives, never daring to set foot in this area again.

However, after the initial chaos, the real battle had only just begun.

Li En, the Medicine Fairy, and Chai Yusheng stood in three separate places, suspended in mid-air, their auras raging wildly, a great battle about to break out.

Boom!

Thousands of sword energies soared into the sky. Rean brought his two fingers together, and behind him, hundreds of sword shadows fell like a galaxy, each one carrying a bone-chilling coldness.

He stepped forward, and the sword formation transformed into a dragon, tearing out furrows several feet deep in the ground.

With a gentle wave of her hand, the Medicine Fairy released a seven-colored mist from her sleeve, causing the vegetation to wither and flourish in the instant it passed by.

Where her toes touched, crimson lotuses bloomed, and the poisonous flames gushing from their hearts melted the incoming sword energy into molten iron.

A jade pill suddenly exploded in her palm, transforming into nine large, green-scaled pythons that coiled around the genius of the Pill Tower.

Chai Yusheng sneered, and the phantom of the alchemy furnace appeared above her head. The moment the furnace lid was lifted, the purple-gold flames condensed into the shape of a Qilin and pounced on the python.

He slapped out three Thunder Pattern Pills with his backhand, and the exploding lightning tore a gap in the sword formation. The aftershocks forced the Medicine Fairy to retreat seven steps.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Li En charged forward, his natal spirit sword "Frost Mark" aimed straight for her throat, but it was blocked by the suddenly growing black iron thorns—the Medicine Fairy had actually used her essence blood to cultivate a thousand-year-old ironwood.

The three forces collided wildly within a ten-zhang radius, causing the air to distort and ripple due to the energy surge.

Suddenly, Chai Yusheng crushed the jade pendant at her waist, and the "Eight Desolations Burning Heaven Formation," a secret technique passed down by the Pill Tower, instantly took shape, with pillars of fire forming a cage that sealed off the battlefield.

Rean's sword technique suddenly changed, and all the sword energy converged into a line of white light, actually cutting a hair-thin gap in the fire wall.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, the Medicine Fairy flicked out a drop of her own poisonous blood. As the crimson liquid passed through the crevice, even the space itself was corroded, leaving a dark trail.

Amidst the churning sea of ​​clouds atop the mountain, three figures collided suddenly amidst the intertwining thunder.

The Medicine Fairy made a hand seal, and thousands of crimson rays burst forth from her sleeves, transforming into a hundred-foot-long medicine cauldron that was turned upside down. The chaotic energy inside the cauldron steamed up, melting the surrounding ten-foot-wide void into a glassy state.

With a sinister grin, Chai Yusheng waved the White Bone Banner. The evil energy of the Nine Netherworlds condensed into the giant head of a gluttonous beast, which bit off half of the crimson glow. As the poisonous black rain poured down, it eroded through the rock layers for dozens of feet.

Rean's pupils suddenly conjured golden phantoms, and a dragon-like roar erupted from his spine. He shattered the mountains beneath his feet and soared into the air, his fist trailing a galaxy-like trajectory as it slammed into the White Bone Banner.

Chai Yusheng hastily raised the banner to block, but the skull on the banner shattered one after another amidst the dazzling fist light.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, the Medicine Fairy flicked her finger and shot out seven Demon-Sealing Nails. However, the causal threads wrapped around the ends of the nails were suddenly severed by an invisible sword aura—Rean's left hand had somehow formed a sword with his fingers together, the fingertips exuding a sharpness as if splitting the heavens and earth.

Suddenly, Chai Yusheng let out a fierce roar, detonating her natal Gu, causing flesh and blood to explode into a swarm of poisonous locusts. (End of Chapter)
