CHAPTER 67: CHAPTER 61: BESTOWING TREASURE

This time, Taoist Longshan descended the mountain and killed several Gang Essence Realm experts, among whom the spoils were not few.

Even Ning Qi rarely showed a look of expectation.

That night when the Iron Ridge Three Fierce attacked, only the Flying Heaven Eagle was left, and he obtained a Dominating Tiger True Intent Painting, which benefited him greatly. However, not being able to get the other two True Intent Paintings always left him with regret.

But this time, Taoist Longshan pursued to Cang State and slaughtered the remaining two fierce ones.

Perhaps this time there is a chance to collect all three True Intent Paintings.

Taoist Longshan saw the appearance of the disciples and couldn’t help but smile.

He didn’t keep them guessing, he waved his hand, and a golden redwood box suddenly fell in front of the disciples, their eyes brightened, and their hearts pounded.

The news that the Wang Clan used the Gang Condensing Pill as an apology item naturally spread to True Martial Mountain.

The wooden box opened, and a black pill the size of a dragon’s eye fell into everyone’s sight.

The color was crystal clear, with a peculiar fragrance, making people subconsciously swallow their saliva.

"This is the Gang Condensing Pill, I believe you know its effect." Taoist Longshan said calmly, he had already decided whom to give it to in his heart.

The disciples’ eyes were a bit fiery, then Luo Wentian stepped out, a trace of reluctance flashed in his eyes, and then he said:

"Master, this disciple boldly requests that this Gang Condensing Pill be given to the second junior brother. His cultivation is now at the Ninefold Inner Essence, and with the help of the Gang Condensing Pill, there is a great chance of breaking through to the Gang Essence Realm. As for the other junior brothers and sisters, their realms are still somewhat lacking."

Xiong Shi immediately became anxious when he heard Luo Wentian’s words.

"Senior brother, isn’t saying this putting me to shame?"

"In the entire True Martial Sect, you are the most hardworking. If it weren’t for being burdened by sect affairs, you would have already stepped into the Gang Essence Realm. Now with the Gang Condensing Pill in front, it is just right to make up for the lost time, how can I have the face to keep this Gang Condensing Pill for myself."

Ye Qinghe also said:

"Indeed, this Gang Condensing Pill belongs to the senior brother."

Jiang Baishan nodded in agreement:

"Senior brother, you shouldn’t refuse. Master will hold the Celestial Being Grand Ceremony soon, and as the eldest disciple of our True Martial Sect, you are our face. If you are not in the Gang Essence Realm, those who come to observe the ceremony in the future may look down on us."

These words made everyone nod.

Luo Wentian hesitated a bit. He initially refused to set an example, so the other junior brothers and sisters wouldn’t have any other thoughts, as there is only one Gang Condensing Pill.

But he didn’t expect the junior brothers and sisters would all want to give this Gang Condensing Pill to him.

This touched his heart.

Taoist Longshan watched the disciples’ mutual humility and felt comforted. The previous incident with Qin Yun made him doubt his teachings, but now it seemed that perhaps everyone had their own nature.

"Alright, let Wentian have this Gang Condensing Pill. Over the years, you’ve indeed been delayed in your cultivation because of sect affairs. As the senior brother of True Martial Sect, you must hold the fort."

In terms of reason and emotion, this Gang Condensing Pill should go to Luo Wentian, as everyone has witnessed his contributions over the years.

Although the others were a bit envious, they sincerely felt happy for Luo Wentian.

Taoist Longshan laughed:

"You don’t need to feel disheartened, although the Gang Condensing Pill is precious, I can find some more for you all in the future."

Everyone quickly apologized, saying they didn’t dare.

Only Ning Qi kept staring at the Gang Condensing Pill and suddenly said:

"Master, may I study this Gang Condensing Pill for a moment?"

Everyone was immediately shocked and looked at Ning Qi in unison.

Luo Wentian was taken aback for a moment then said:

"Since it’s little Jiu who wants it, just take it."

Ning Qi smiled and said:

"Senior brother, you misunderstood. I don’t want to take the Gang Condensing Pill; I just want to see if I can reverse-engineer the pill formula. By then, we only need to gather the materials ourselves, and perhaps we can make the Gang Condensing Pill, then everyone can have one."

Over the years, Ning Qi’s medical skills had advanced rapidly, and he also dabbled in Alchemy Dao, but prior pills were mostly auxiliary and relied primarily on personal cultivation; he didn’t want to spend too much time making them.

But the Gang Condensing Pill was different, its significant effect aroused his interest.

Everyone looked at each other, almost doubting they heard wrong.

Instead, it was Taoist Longshan, whose heart jumped with a hint of excitement; he stared at Ning Qi and said:

"Little Jiu, are you sure you can do it?"

Ning Qi humbly replied:

"It should be no problem, quickly in one month, slowly three months, but the Gang Condensing Pill might be consumed."

Taoist Longshan stroked his beard and laughed heartily:

"No matter, if you can derive the Gang Condensing Pill formula, getting two more for you is not an issue!"

Although the Gang Condensing Pill is precious, it’s not unattainable.

But if the Gang Condensing Pill formula is obtained, True Martial Sect’s foundation would greatly increase, and the probability of Gang Essence Realm emerging in the future would significantly rise, also attracting some Inner Essence Realm Perfection experts to join.

Looking at the Great Yan Dynasty, only a few forces can make such a treasure as the Gang Condensing Pill.

Many people went to seek pills and even needed to bring a few materials themselves.

Seeing Luo Wentian and the others still in a daze, Taoist Longshan felt delighted and couldn’t help but smile:

"Your junior brother’s achievements in medicine and alchemy are not low, the improved Body Tempering Powder came from his hands."

Luo Wentian’s body trembled, somewhat incredulous.

"The improved Body Tempering Powder actually came from little Jiu?"

As the one overseeing all the affairs, he knew how greatly this improved Body Tempering Powder had enhanced True Martial Sect.

Before, he thought his master got it from elsewhere.

Everyone widened their eyes at Ning Qi.

Ning Qi merely smiled faintly.

Some things were destined to be impossible to hide for a lifetime; now that his wings were gradually growing, he too could slowly reveal some things, and the persons here were the closest and most trustworthy.

"Little Jiu, you hide so deeply!"

Everyone was amazed and laughed heartily, their eyes filled with excitement and anticipation.

Though they unanimously decided to give the Gang Condensing Pill to Luo Wentian, facing such a treasure, who wouldn’t be tempted, everyone wanted to reach higher in the Martial Path.

And now, there was an opportunity.

If Ning Qi could reverse-engineer the Gang Condensing Pill formula, True Martial Sect would no longer lack Gang Condensing Pills.

Luo Wentian shoved the wooden box, which held the Gang Condensing Pill, into Ning Qi’s hands, patting his chest and saying:

"Little Jiu, if there’s anything you need help with later, just tell us senior brothers and sisters!"

Ning Qi nodded with a smile.

Reverse-engineering the Gang Condensing Pill indeed required numerous experiments, which would consume some herbs. Without the Sect’s support, no amount of understanding could make up for the lack of resources.

Everyone was thrilled.

Taoist Longshan waved his hand again, and several treasures hovered in front of them.

There were treasure blades and treasure swords, treasure armors, and several other treasures with various purposes, some of which Taoist Longshan acquired this time down the mountain, others were accumulated from before, enough to ensure every disciple wouldn’t be left empty-handed.

Taoist Longshan never intended to favor some over others.

Ning Qi’s eyes shined as he looked at the two True Intent Paintings.

The Heavenly Eagle True Intent Painting and the Furious Dragon True Intent Painting!
