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

The temperature on the field was already extremely high, and Ye Liuyun was drenched in sweat. Unfortunately, the penetrating qi cannon still couldn't truly penetrate this guy's defense.

"Damn it, it's so hot! This move is really disgusting. I hate fire the most," Ye Liuyun said angrily.

But she has no way to deal with it right now. If she doesn't find a way to resolve the crisis, she will definitely be roasted to death. At that time, the referee will definitely judge that she cannot withstand this force and she will definitely be judged to have lost. This is not the result that Ye Liuyun wants to see.

As expected, Elder Qin had already locked onto Ye Liuyun. As soon as Ye Liuyun could no longer withstand the attack, she would immediately step in to stop him.

"Hahaha, this bitch is doomed to lose. She still wants to go to the Nanling Grand Gathering? No way!" Fang Hao and the others laughed excitedly.

Ye Liuyun no longer had time to gather the rotating energy blasts, because her skin couldn't take it anymore, and her clothes were about to catch fire.

If her clothes catch fire, she will definitely lose. Ye Liuyun quickly threw out an ice pill to lower the temperature around her, while changing the meridians in her body and starting to condense a rotating qi bullet. She seemed to have no other means to deal with this move.

She could only try using ki blasts. She was releasing cold air with freezing pills to buy time, but the temperature was too high. Each freezing pill only lasted a few seconds before it became completely ineffective.

"Little girl, doesn't she like playing with fire? You have flames too, release the Myriad Medicine Immortal Fire." Lin Qingyou reminded Ye Liuyun when she saw how much effort Ye Liuyun was putting in.

Ye Liuyun was taken aback.

"Huh? This flame can be used for combat?" Ye Liuyun was somewhat surprised.

These words left Lin Qingyou speechless.

"Nonsense! Otherwise, do you think this flame can only be used for refining medicine and crafting weapons?"

After receiving Lin Qingyou's signal, Ye Liuyun did not hesitate. She immediately raised her hand, and a ball of emerald green flame burned in her palm. This was just Ye Liuyun's name for the Myriad Medicine Immortal Flame; the flame was called the Emerald Glazed Flame.

As soon as the fire appeared, the high temperature around Ye Liuyun instantly dissipated, and he could no longer feel any heat.

"Huh? What is this?" The cultivators around Ye Liuyun were stunned as they looked at the emerald green flames emanating from his hand.

Ye Liuyun couldn't care less about anything else; exposing his strange fire was better than exposing his immortal body.

"Hahaha, as expected of celestial fire. Once this fire is unleashed, the flames released by this woman have almost no heat left. But Master, if I use this flame to burn this woman, I'm afraid I'll burn her to death," Ye Liuyun asked.

Unfortunately, Lin Qingyou shook her head directly.

"With your current strength, you can only use this flame for self-defense and medicine making. You can't control it to attack enemies yet. Hold on for now and gather your strength to use the Spiral Qi Blast to deal with this woman," Lin Qingyou said.

Upon hearing this, Ye Liuyun felt a little regretful. She used one hand to block the other party's high temperature with her strange fire, and gathered her inner strength with the other hand.

"Damn it, what is that flame in this woman's hand? It seems to be able to withstand my attacks. Damn it? How many tricks does she still have up her sleeve?" Liu Yanli's expression was extremely ugly after she realized that her methods could not shake Ye Liuyun.

She had already used the power of the Dao Palace, but even though the temperature was still rising, Ye Liuyun remained completely still.

"This, this couldn't be a strange fire, could it?" Wenren Lianyi, sitting next to Fang Mingyu, looked at the flame in Ye Liuyun's hand and her eyes lit up as if she had seen a supreme treasure.

"A strange fire? This little girl has a strange fire? Impossible! She can subdue a strange fire?" The other elders were also shocked; this was beyond their comprehension.

They felt that Ye Liuyun was full of secrets.

Ye Liuyun's spiral energy blasts quickly converged.

"Hmph! This still can't break your defense. Go." Ye Liuyun threw out a spiraling energy blast the size of a basketball. Since Liu Yanli was unable to move at the moment, this move, even though it wasn't fast, still hit her defense.

This thing is like a diamond drill, spinning hard against Liu Yanli's defense. It has a stronger penetrating power than a concentrated form of ki cannon, or more accurately, a stronger abrasion power.

A hole the size of a basketball was quickly drilled into Liu Yanli's defense.

"No..." After piercing through the defense, that thing slammed into Liu Yanli's chest. Liu Yanli had poured all her power into the spell, leaving no extra power for defense. This attack was a full-damage attack.

"Ah..." Liu Yanli was sent flying by this thing, her spell was broken, and she spat out a mouthful of blood.

Finally, she crashed hard into the array barrier and passed out. Her chest was a bloody mess. If the attack hadn't been weakened by her magical defense, it would have killed her.

The entire arena fell into a deathly silence. Liu Yanli had actually lost so ridiculously? In most people's eyes, Ye Liuyun should have lost for sure. They couldn't understand how Ye Liuyun had survived such a scorching heat.

"She managed to block that? Could it be because of the ball of flame in her hand earlier?" Murong Huan and the others wondered to themselves.

But none of that matters anymore. What matters is that Ye Liuyun won.

Seeing that the high temperature around them was gradually dissipating, Ye Liuyun checked Liu Yanli's condition again and breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that she had only fainted.

"This isn't my fault, we have some kind of grudge between us," Ye Liuyun muttered to himself.

Elder Qin immediately went over to check on Liu Yanli's condition, then used his power to stabilize her injuries before announcing the results of the competition.

"Number 88, Ye Liuyu, has qualified to participate in the Nanling Grand Gathering." Elder Qin announced, looking at Ye Liuyu with a complicated expression.

Ye Liuyun chuckled, then leaped back to Lin Aoxue's side.

"That's great! Congratulations, Junior Sister Ye! You've successfully secured a spot in the Southern Ridge Grand Gathering. Now, seven people from Caiyun Peak have qualified!" The female disciples of Caiyun Peak quickly offered their congratulations.

"Yes, let's work hard together," Ye Liuyun replied shyly.

Su Ying and other high-ranking members also offered their congratulations. It was naturally something to be happy about that a disciple who had only recently arrived at the Yun Sect was about to represent the Yun Sect at the Nanling Grand Gathering.

However, the methods Ye Liuyun revealed today will likely cause some trouble.

"Little girl, did you use a strange fire just now?" Su Ying asked secretly via telepathy.

Ye Liuyun knew that the higher-ups of the Yun Sect would definitely ask about this issue, but since the truth had already been revealed, denying it would be burying his head in the sand.

Moreover, Lin Qingyou had told her that apart from herself and Ye Liuyun, no one else could control the flames or forcibly take them away.

"Eh? Peak Master, this is indeed a strange fire, but, disciple..." Ye Liuyun pretended to be nervous and stammered as he answered.

Seeing that Ye Liuyun had admitted it, Su Ying didn't ask any further questions.

"As expected, little girl, you need to be careful. You should know what this strange fire means. Be careful when you go out in the future. By the way, Wenren Lianyi from the Alchemy Peak might come looking for you. You need to find a way to deal with her." Su Ying reminded her.

Upon hearing these words, Ye Liuyun quickly expressed her gratitude and said thank you.

Su Ying definitely has no interest in strange fires. Firstly, she is not an alchemist, and secondly, she is a pure water-attribute cultivator, so she has no affinity with strange fires. However, she is very interested in Fire Cloud Peak and Alchemy Peak.

Of course, only Su Ying knows that Ye Liuyun possesses a different kind of fire at the moment. Others are still unsure, but in the coming period, many people will definitely come to ask Ye Liuyun about it.

Sure enough, as soon as Su Ying finished speaking, Ye Liuyun clearly felt that many people were looking at her from all directions, and there was a predatory look in their eyes.

"Hey? Aoxue, let's go back. What's happening here doesn't seem to concern us anymore." Ye Liuyun thought for a moment, then said to Lin Aoxue. She didn't want to sit here and be stared at by so many people.

Lin Aoxue glanced around before returning to Bixia Valley with Ye Liuyun.

Upon returning to Bixia Valley, Lin Aoxue finally spoke.

"Your exposure of your strange fire will likely cause you a lot of trouble. Have you thought about how to deal with it?"

Lin Aoxue's expression was very serious. This was no small matter, and she felt that Ye Liuyun was definitely in big trouble.

"We'll deal with whatever comes our way, what else can we do?" Ye Liuyun said helplessly.

Since things have come to this point, there really isn't a good solution. If Lin Aoxue hadn't known that Ye Liuyun was immortal, she probably would have been cursing. After all, putting herself in danger just to go to the Nanling Grand Gathering was unacceptable to her.

Sure enough, less than three minutes after the two returned, a gentle voice suddenly came from outside.

"Elder of the Alchemy Peak, Wenren Lianyi has come to pay a visit to you, young friend. Would you be willing to meet me?"

As soon as these words were spoken, Lin Aoxue and Ye Liuyun frowned. Speak of the devil, and he appears. After all, Su Ying had just warned her not long ago to be careful of the elders of the Alchemy Peak.

"She's here so quickly. I wonder what her purpose is," Ye Liuyun said, exchanging a glance with Lin Aoxue.

"Whatever your purpose, I can only deal with it. You brought this trouble upon yourself, and I can't simply turn you away," Lin Aoxue replied.

A moment later, Ye Liuyun activated the formation, letting Wenren Lianyi in. Wenren Lianyi appeared in front of Lin Aoxue and Ye Liuyun in an instant.

"Greetings, Elder Wenren." The two men looked each other over and quickly bowed.

"Hehe, no need to be polite, little girl. Judging from your eyes, you must have guessed why I'm here, right?" Wenren Lianyi said with a smile as she looked at Ye Liuyun.

Wenren Lianyi looks very gentle and easy-going. She doesn't seem like a woman with bad intentions. However, you can't judge a book by its cover. After all, a woman's appearance can be deceiving. Ye Liuyun himself is a perfect example.

“Alright, Elder Wenren, why don’t we sit down over there and talk?” Ye Liuyun took a deep breath and said calmly.

Wenren Lianyi nodded, and the two of them walked to the pavilion and sat down.

"I'll get straight to the point, young friend. Was the emerald green flame you released during the competition a strange flame?" Wenren Lianyi asked directly.

Ye Liuyun nodded without hesitation.

When Wenren Lianyi saw Ye Liuyun nod, her body visibly trembled slightly. This was due to excitement. Everyone knew what doubt meant to an alchemist, so excitement was a given.

"As expected, young friend. You should know very well what the strange fire means to an alchemist. I wonder if you are willing to part with it? You can name your conditions." Wenren Lianyi took a deep breath and then asked.

She wanted the strange fire, and her purpose in coming here was to see if Ye Liuyun could sell it.

Normally, a strange fire can be abandoned by its owner, but unfortunately Ye Liuyun cannot give up her strange fire. Moreover, even if she could, Ye Liuyun would never sell it to the person in front of her.

There was no need for Ye Liuyun to say anything more to Wenren Lianyi about this matter; it was pointless.

"Elder, please forgive my bluntness, but this fire was a gift from my master. I have no right to sell it to others. Besides, as you surely know, I am also an alchemist, and this strange fire is equally important to me. So if you have come for the strange fire, I can only say that there is nothing I can do." Ye Liuyun shook his head directly.

When Wenren Lianyi saw that Ye Liuyun had rejected her so directly, she didn't seem particularly angry, because this was within her expectations. It was true that she had come to ask for the strange fire, but more than that, she wanted to see what kind of person Ye Liuyun really was.

First, they all know that Ye Liuyun has good aptitude but lacks all five elements. Second, he is a rare body cultivator. Third, he can refine some strange and unusual combat pills and possesses many treasures. Now he also has a different kind of fire.

With so many factors converging on one person, that person cannot be an ordinary individual.

"Master? Sure enough, my guess was right. There is a top-level alchemist behind Ye Liuyu. He can even give a strange fire to his disciple. What level of alchemist must he have the courage to do that?" Wenren Lianyi wondered to herself.

Wenren Lianyi kept her head down, deep in thought. Ye Liuyun could tell that the woman was analyzing what she had said, so he wasn't in a hurry and patiently waited for Wenren Lianyi's reply.

One minute later.

"Alas! Well then, it seems that this strange fire is indeed not meant for me, and it would require a great stroke of luck to subdue it. Even if you are willing to part with it, it may not be suitable for me. In that case, I shall return first. By the way, you are welcome to visit my Alchemy Peak. You are also an alchemist, and Alchemy Peak is the most suitable place for you." Wenren Lianyi stood up and said.

"Yes, after the Nanling Grand Gathering ends and I return, I will definitely go to the Alchemy Peak to take a look," Ye Liuyun said.

But Wenren Lianyi found this amusing.

"Oh? Young friend, why do you think you can come back after going to the Nanling Grand Gathering?" Wenren Lianyi asked curiously.

In her mind, someone as special as Ye Liuyun had a high chance of being noticed by the Taishang Ganying Sect.

"Hehe, Elder, I know very well that the sect probably wouldn't have let me go. Even if they had, they should have made a deal with me." Ye Liuyun replied with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Wenren Lianyi couldn't help but look at Ye Liuyun with newfound respect.

"Hehe, young friend, you are truly intelligent and kind. I'll head back now." Wenren Lianyi smiled slightly and then vanished into thin air. Once you reach the Four Extremes Secret Realm, you can basically teleport.

After Wenren Lianyi left, Ye Liuyun's composure vanished instantly.

"Oh my god, I was so scared! I thought this woman would pester me and threaten me," Ye Liuyun said, patting his chest with a frightened expression.

"So you're scared now? I thought you thought you were invincible and could do whatever you wanted. Ugh, I'm not talking to you anymore, I need to go get some rest, I'm still feeling weak." After saying that, Lin Aoxue went straight back, and Ye Liuyun didn't disturb her.

From today onwards, Ye Liuyun will definitely be considered a renowned figure among the disciples of the Yun Sect, perhaps even more famous than those promising disciples from other sects.

Starting the next day, guests kept coming to Ye Liuyun's door, such as Murong Huan and other important disciples of the sect. They all came to visit Ye Liuyun to promote their relationship. After all, these one hundred people were going to represent the Yun Sect at the Nanling Grand Gathering, so it was definitely necessary to get to know each other.

However, most people were still very polite to Ye Liuyun, but he only had a headache when it came to Jiang Yan.

Jiang Yan made no attempt to hide his desire to pursue Ye Liuyun. When he visited Ye Liuyun, he brought a pile of gifts. In addition, several important male disciples from various peaks also tried to curry favor with Ye Liuyun, whether intentionally or unintentionally.

But what Ye Liuyun really wanted to tell them was, "Brothers, I used to be a guy too. I'm not interested in you. Don't waste your time on me. You'd be better off pursuing other female disciples."

But Ye Liuyun definitely couldn't say that. Not to mention Jiang Yan, that annoying guy who comes every day for all sorts of strange reasons, there's another annoying guy, Tantai Mingyue from Ziyun Peak.

Is this some kind of nonsense? This Tantai Mingyue is also looking for all sorts of reasons to see Lin Aoxue. Ye Liuyun understands men's minds too well. Moreover, Tantai Mingyue had already expressed her feelings for Lin Aoxue before.

"Damn it, what's wrong with you guys? One likes someone else's wife, and the other likes someone else's husband." Ye Liuyun wanted to complain every time he saw Tantai Mingyue. She didn't even have that thing anymore, yet she still had these kinds of thoughts.

What's most infuriating is that they are a married couple in name only, but they are helpless in this situation. You can't tell them outright that you are a married couple and not single.

Finally, with the ranking matches concluded, the Sect Tournament came to a complete end.

To be honest, apart from Jiang Yan and Tantai Mingyue, who annoyed Ye Liuyun, the others were fine. Lin Aoxue probably got a little annoyed after staying in Bixia Valley for a few days, because there were outsiders in Bixia Valley every day. Lin Aoxue didn't like crowds, so she went straight back to the main peak library.

Ye Liuyun's previously leisurely and peaceful life has been basically disrupted. Of course, the people who come to Ye Liuyun's place most frequently are still the people from Caiyun Peak, such as Pei Qian and her group.

It's nice to have someone to chat with. Ye Liuyun's Bixia Valley has a charming environment, and with people visiting almost every day, it's become very popular. The girls from Caiyun Peak use Ye Liuyun's residence as a stage to pass the time, dancing here when they're bored.

You know what, the disciples of Caiyun Peak are all professional dance masters. After all, many of Caiyun Peak's methods of inheritance are related to dance.

Ye Liuyun also found it pleasing to the eye, which was better than just sitting there doing nothing. Sometimes, when disciples from Ziyun Peak came to visit, they would even act as musicians. To be honest, Ziyun Peak and Caiyun Peak were a perfect match; together they were a great duo of singers and dancers.

However, less than a month before the Nanling Grand Gathering, Ye Liuyun was summoned to the main peak by Fang Mingyu. What was the purpose? In fact, Fang Mingyu told Ye Liuyun that she could attend the Nanling Grand Gathering, but she could not join the Taishang Ganying Sect. Ye Liuyun had to agree to this condition before the Yun Sect would allow her to go. Otherwise, someone else would take her place.

Although all of this was expected, Ye Liuyun was still a little annoyed. It felt really bad to be threatened, but there was nothing he could do. Fang Mingyu had made her reasons very clear.

She said that as long as Ye Liuyun stayed in Yun Sect, he would definitely enjoy the treatment of a direct disciple of Yun Sect. Moreover, not long after she left the main peak, she received news from Caiyun Peak that Ye Liuyun's disciple status had been raised to a higher level, directly becoming a core disciple.

No one thought there was a problem, because Ye Liuyun's combat strength was sufficient to fulfill this role.

At the same time, Ye Liuyun had also fully learned the rules of the Nanling Grand Gathering. This Nanling Grand Gathering was not like the Yun Sect's sect conference, where many random cultivators would gather together.
