Forced to become a pure and innocent female pharmacist in order to cultivate immortality.

Pei Qian had warned us about the troubles of this place when we arrived, and advised us not to fly into the sky. Cultivators who fly into the sky become sitting ducks, and their combat power in the sky is definitely not as strong as that of demonic birds of the same level.

This place is the opposite of the Bihu Lake island group.

The six of them then walked off in different directions.

They each wore a special token. These weren't sect disciple tokens, but tokens given to them by Pei Qian. These tokens were special; they allowed them to sense each other and communicate directly through telepathy within a certain range, without needing to send messages, since messages might not be seen in time.

If there is danger, they can simply shout and then rush to their companions' side according to the token's guidance—a very convenient magic weapon.

After getting away from Pei Qian and the others, Ye Liuyun found a place and took out a pill. This pill was specifically for demonic beasts and was called the Demon-Attracting Pill, something Ye Liuyun had refined himself.

The effect of this pill is that it emits a scent that attracts demonic beasts. Within a certain range, any demonic beast will be drawn to the pill by this scent.

Ye Liuyun was too lazy to run around looking for monsters; he'd rather wait for them to come to him.

"Ugh! Finding monsters is too much trouble. Anyway, this monster hunting tournament is about the level and number of monsters, so I'll just catch as many as I attract." After crushing the monster-attracting pill, Ye Liuyun took an invisibility pill and hid in a place, waiting for the monsters to come.

The Demon-Attracting Pill emitted a milky-white smoke, which quickly spread in all directions. Some demonic beasts, smelling the scent, gradually followed it to the area where Ye Liuyun was located.

However, Ye Liuyun's methods might attract the demonic beasts from Pei Qian and the others, making it easy for them to gain nothing.

A minute later, Ye Liuyun detected movement in the southern jungle using his divine sense. He immediately prepared to deliver a heavy blow the moment the demonic beast approached the pill.

The jungle began to tremble, and then a cat-like monster emerged from the forest. The monster's aura was very weak, only at the early stage of the Sea of ​​Wheels realm.

"Too weak." Ye Liuyun was speechless, but even a small mosquito is still meat, so he decided to make a sale first.

Before the cat demon could even swallow the pill, Ye Liuyun threw down the Myriad Medicine Cauldron, instantly trapping the cat demon beneath it.

The cat demon, realizing it had been ambushed, struggled frantically inside the cauldron. Ye Liuyun had already sat down on the cauldron and then slapped it hard. A piercing roar came from inside the cauldron, which immediately stunned the cat demon.

After stunning it, Ye Liuyun opened the Myriad Medicines Cauldron and captured the cat demon.

"Tsk tsk, unlucky little guy, you're just unlucky." Ye Liuyun glanced at the guy and then stuffed him into the demon-catching bag.

The Yun Sect also said that they should capture any demonic beasts below the Dao Palace level if possible, and try not to kill them, because they will be released back into the nine training grounds after the event ends.

"One point in hand. Let's try increasing the flavor and see if it can attract a stronger monster." Ye Liuyun tossed down another monster-attracting pill and then returned to the tree branch to wait.

That made things much easier for her.

Isn't this a classic case of "willing people take the bait"?

---------------------------------

Sure enough, after a while, more demonic beasts came. Once a demonic beast below the Dao Palace level came, it was not going to leave. As for demonic beasts above the Dao Palace level, Ye Liuyun was too lazy to chase after them. After all, he didn't care about losing one more, and chasing after them would only waste time.

Besides, this demon-hunting tournament lasts for a week, and after a week, the demon beasts will be taken to the exits of the nine training grounds for inventory and statistics.

Another half hour passed quickly, and in that time, Ye Liuyun had already captured more than a dozen demonic beasts at the Sea of ​​Wheels realm.

"Strange, why are there only minor demons? Where are the demons above the Dao Palace level? Is this place too far out? Are the Dao Palace demons all deep inside?" Ye Liuyun asked, puzzled.

After the effects of the pills wore off, Ye Liuyun walked deeper into the area.

Their token has a wide range of contacts.

Then look at Lin Aoxue. Lin Aoxue is all about excitement. She goes wherever there are lots of people. She is currently in the Azure Sea Floating Island Group, diving into the lake alone to hunt down the monsters in the lake. The lake water in that area is churning, and weak monsters are constantly surfacing from the lake.

Lin Aoxue could easily knock out a group of demonic beasts at the Sea of ​​Wheels realm with just a few moves.

However, some foolish Yun Sect disciples thought they had gotten a bargain, and some of their teams even tried to pick up the unconscious monsters.

But just as they grabbed the monster, a beam of azure light shot out from the water and landed in front of them.

"What, you want to steal my prey?" Lin Aoxue stared at these people with a murderous look on her face.

The people froze when they saw that it was Lin Aoxue.

"Eh? Oh, it's Senior Sister Lin! Haha, misunderstanding, misunderstanding! We thought something had happened to these monsters. It turns out you knocked them out. Sorry, we'll be leaving now." The group quickly put down the monsters and ran away as fast as they could.

Several teams have already suffered setbacks at Lin Aoxue's hands.

"Hmph!" Lin Aoxue snorted coldly, then activated the Demon-Catching Bag, putting all the unconscious little demon beasts into it.

This demon-catching bag is a magical artifact. As long as the demon beast cannot resist, its power can be activated to capture it. Ye Liuyun's power is too weak, so he can only manually stuff the demon beast into it.

"Damn! That scared me to death. Luckily, Lin Aoxue didn't make a move, or we would all be out of the game." The group of people who had run away said, wiping the cold sweat from their foreheads.

There's another rule in this demon-hunting tournament: anyone who suffers a serious injury will be forced to withdraw from the competition.

"This woman is really fierce. She dares to dive into the lake to hunt monsters with only the Foundation Establishment stage cultivation. No wonder she can defeat the top disciples of the entire sect at the same level. She can now be considered invincible among the disciples of the Cloud Sect at the same level," another person said.

The people in the team looked visibly shaken.

However, just as Lin Aoxue had submerged into the lake and was enjoying the killing spree, a clear voice reached her ears.

"Junior Sister Lin, can I hunt monsters with you?"

The sound startled Lin Aoxue in the lake. She pulled a Dao Palace-level early-stage demon beast that she had just killed out of the water and swam up. Then she looked up at the sky and saw that Tantai Mingyue, the eldest disciple of Ziyun Peak, was looking at her with a gentle expression.

"Oh, Senior Sister Tantai? You want to catch demons with me?" Lin Aoxue was a little surprised when she saw the other person.

Tantai Mingyue smiled and nodded.

"May I?"

Lin Aoxue was puzzled. She and this woman had only met once at most, and their relationship didn't seem to be good enough for them to do missions together.

Most importantly, she already knew that this Tantai Mingyue was originally a man.

When Lin Aoxue first found out that this guy was a man, she almost choked. She was thinking at the time why some men, after turning into women, felt more womanly than women, like her Ye Liuyun.

"No way? Could this guy be interested in me?" Lin Aoxue quickly guessed what the other person was thinking.

Indeed, ever since Tantai Mingyue was defeated by Lin Aoxue, she has developed a great interest in Lin Aoxue. Or rather, after Lin Aoxue broke through her Canghai Mingyue Melody, she was captivated. After returning home, she kept thinking about Lin Aoxue.

"Eh? Well, I'm sorry, Senior Sister Tantai, I'm used to being alone and don't like cooperating with others." Lin Aoxue decisively rejected Tantai Mingyue.

She'd be willing to be friends with a woman who was originally a woman, but not with a man.

Tantai Mingyue was taken aback upon hearing this, and then sighed with some disappointment.

"Alright, since that's the case, then I won't disturb you any longer, junior sister. Farewell." Tantai Mingyue said goodbye and then drifted away.

However, many people must have seen Tantai Mingyue come to see Lin Aoxue.

Some of the Yun Sect disciples nearby began to discuss the matter.

"What? What does this Senior Sister Tantai mean? Could she be interested in Senior Sister Lin? That's quite unusual," someone muttered.

Indeed, over the years, only female cultivators had pursued Tantai Mingyue, and Tantai Mingyue had always refused them. This time, however, she took the initiative to get close to another female cultivator.

“But Senior Sister Tantai isn’t the same Senior Brother Tantai as before. Now there are two women. That’s impossible.” Some people were skeptical.

But immediately a gender-swapped female nun spoke up with a sarcastic remark.

"Are you idiots? Just because your body has become a woman doesn't mean your soul and consciousness have become women too. Even though our bodies have become women, we still feel like men inside. Isn't it normal to like women?"

That statement makes some sense.

Given Lin Aoxue's speed in catching monsters, she should be able to break into the top 100 by now.

Murong Huan and the others were all capturing powerful monsters.

The Dao Palace's early stage monsters score 8 points, mid-stage 16 points, late stage 22 points, and peak 44 points.

Capture powerful monsters to increase your score faster.

Demonic beasts at the Sea of ​​Wheels realm are too weak for Yunzong cultivators, so they receive very few points.

The high-ranking members of the Yun Sect were sitting in the sect's main hall, observing the situation in the nine areas. In front of them were multiple Xuan Guang Mirrors, all transmitting data through the monitoring arrays of the nine training grounds.

The formation surrounding those nine areas has many functions. Currently, each area is monitored by three cultivators from the Four Extremes Secret Realm: one to preside over the formation, one to monitor the Four Extremes demonic beasts inside, and one to patrol to prevent Yun Sect disciples from killing each other.

"Which faction do you think will have the most slots in this Demon Hunting Tournament?" the Grand Elder of the Cloud Sect asked with a smile.

However, it's hard for everyone to say for sure, because the structure of the various factions in the Cloud Sect was balanced when the disciples were redistributed, so the level of the disciples is almost the same, except that the main peak is slightly stronger.

“In the past, wouldn’t Thunder Cloud Peak and Fire Cloud Peak usually have the best results? Although the situation of each peak has been balanced this time, I don’t think there will be much change,” the Second Elder said.

In the past, such a statement would have certainly sparked a debate among the other peak masters, but at this year's Demon Hunting Conference, the peak masters all seemed very silent, as if they were unwilling to respond to the words of the main peak elder.

The main issue is that this year, the situation is different from previous years. There are so many more female disciples on each peak, which makes them somewhat unsure.

According to their knowledge, male cultivators who become female cultivators almost always experience a decrease in combat power to some extent due to issues with their cultivation techniques, requiring a long period of time to readjust.

And how long has it been?

So who can guarantee that their disciples will be able to overcome these difficulties? To avoid being proven wrong, it's better to remain silent.

Chapter 283 The Miraculous Effects of the Elixir (4000 words)

Inside the main hall of the Cloud Sect, it was unusually quiet. The main peak elder had originally wanted to liven up the atmosphere, but unfortunately, Su Ying and the others had no interest in arguing with the other peak masters. They just wanted to see which faction had more disciples who made it to the next round.

The reason they didn't want to discuss this issue with the elders of the main peak was because their main peak clearly had the most qualified people. This time, due to the large number of disciples changing genders, the Yun Sect had to redistribute some of its disciples.

The five major factions all have requirements for their disciples, so a large number of disciples flowed into the main peak. Why? Because the main peak is comprehensive and belongs to the faction directly under the sect leader.

The disciples of the main peak are already slightly better than those of other factions, and their overall quality is higher.

The main peak has no gender restrictions for disciples, nor any restrictions on cultivation methods.

If we consider overall strength, the main peak, Huoyun Peak, and Leiyun Peak are all in the T1 tier, Ziyun Peak and Qingyun Peak are in the T2 tier, and Caiyun Peak is in the T3 tier.

The fact that Caiyun Peak is the weakest is also related to the characteristics of its cultivation techniques. In addition, female cultivators are generally less powerful than male disciples, so the sect always ranks last in every event.

However, after the disciples were redistributed, the main peak was T0, Huoyun Peak and Leiyun Peak were T1, and the other three were T2.

To be honest, the biggest beneficiary this time is actually Caiyun Peak, which has risen from the worst to a level comparable to Ziyun Peak and Qingyun Peak.

However, Su Ying couldn't be happy because the original disciples of Caiyun Peak and the newly assigned gender-swapped disciples were finding it difficult to get along normally, and the atmosphere was not very good.

"Second Elder, please stop stirring up trouble. Look at us, do we have the mind to argue like before? Senior Sister Huo Ling and Senior Sister Zi Qiong probably haven't even adapted to their new bodies yet," Su Ying said, glancing at the purple-clad woman sitting beside her and the red-clad girl opposite her.

As soon as he said that, Huo Ling's temper flared up.

"Why bring up something you shouldn't be talking about? Can't we have a quiet competition? Second Elder, if you're bored, we can find somewhere to stretch our muscles," Huo Ling said, dissatisfied.

Huo Ling's words immediately embarrassed the Second Elder. She was only at the third level of the Four Extremes Secret Realm, and she couldn't defeat Huo Ling.

"Oh dear, I just saw my good disciple go to find that girl Lin Aoxue. Judging from her expression, she's fallen for Lin Aoxue. What a pity, what a real pity," Ziqiong said with a regretful look.

Everyone present understood what she was regretting.

The most unfortunate ones were actually the master and disciple from Ziyun Peak, who, despite being men, had both turned into women.

Meanwhile, Ye Liuyun had already advanced nearly 10,000 meters into the interior of Cuiping Mountain. Upon arriving there, she once again dropped off a Demon-Attracting Pill, intending to see how many demonic beasts it could attract.

"The further we go in, the more monsters there will be. We'll definitely attract more than just one or two. You'll have to find a way to capture a whole group of monsters at once," Lin Qingyou reminded her.

Ye Liuyun chuckled.

"Don't worry, there's definitely a way. Do you think I'm the kind of person who doesn't make any preparations?" Ye Liuyun said, looking at the electric shock pill with multiple patterns in his hand.

However, Lin Qingyou showed no respect for Ye Liuyun whatsoever.

"Yeah, those few days, I kept hearing someone emitting a kind of indescribable voice. Ugh, I really wonder if you were a man or a woman in your past life. Even if you were a woman, I've never seen anyone like you," Lin Qingyou said sarcastically.

These words nearly choked Ye Liuyun to death.

However, Ye Liuyun already has a very thick skin.

“Master, haven’t you heard of the saying, ‘Food and sex are human nature’? I suggest you try it if you have the chance. Really, if a woman doesn’t experience human desires, then she’s really failing.” Ye Liuyun replied in a serious tone.

Lin Qingyou felt a headache coming on when she heard this. Sure enough, shamelessness is invincible. She felt that her disciple's skin was so thick that even she couldn't reach it.

She didn't continue the conversation with Ye Liuyun; after all, she couldn't win the argument.

As for the pills in Ye Liuyun's hands, these things could only threaten cultivators at the Sea of ​​Wheels realm before, but after Ye Liuyun's improvement and upgrade, they should be able to paralyze demonic beasts at the Dao Palace realm.

So now she just needs to patiently wait for the demonic beasts to come. They'll come in groups and she'll be electrocuted. There's nothing that pills can't solve.

Soon more demonic beasts approached, but this time the first demonic beast to arrive was still at the Sea of ​​Wheels realm.

These demonic beasts cautiously approached the Demon-Attracting Pill, but just as they were about to devour it, a deep roar came from the side, accompanied by an even denser demonic aura.

No need to look anymore, it's a demonic beast at the Dao Palace realm coming over. A tiger-shaped demonic beast, as big as an elephant, walked over with a murderous aura and burning gaze.

The beast only emitted a tiny bit of its aura, yet it frightened those beasts at the Wheel Sea Realm, causing them to retreat continuously.

But perhaps the scent of the Demon-Attracting Pill was just too appealing. Even though these little demons were terrified of the Dao Palace demon beasts before them, they still simply made way for them and did not immediately retreat.

"One early-stage Dao Palace demon beast, account received." Ye Liuyun announced the ownership of the tiger demon.

However, another Dao Palace realm demon beast immediately appeared from another direction. Two Dao Palace realm demon beasts appeared, and their strength was about the same. That would be interesting.
