719: Chapter 219_5 719: Chapter 219_5 The people from the three major Immortal Sects can’t possibly expect all of their Golden Core Stage cultivators to do nothing but guard the entrance to their mountain gate, can they?
Besides, even if they were all guarding, with the strength of the Sect Leader and the others, they could launch a sudden attack and forcibly kill one or two of the opponent’s Golden Core Stage cultivators.
Afterward, the Sect Leader and his party would leave and then, after a period of time, attack again.
Each time they could kill a few Golden Core Stage cultivators, gradually, the three major Immortal Sects of the Great Lai Dynasty would not be able to sustain such losses.
The Sect Leader’s plan was free of issues, but it was too dangerous for the Sect Leader and his companions.
“Sect Leader, this is too risky.
I believe in your strength, and the enemies will unlikely be able to detain you, but you also mentioned that the Sun and Moon Demon Sect and the Red Refinery Demonic Sect have already gotten involved in this affair, and even the remnants of the former dynasty are lurking in the shadows.
What if they send someone to intercept you again, then…”
“So, it all comes down to how we are going to attack them.
Besides, at the beginning, they won’t react so quickly to mobilize a large number of people to the three major Immortal Sects’ territory, who also are unlikely to agree to such a move.
That would only come later in the game.
And I…”
Cao Zhen again pointed to himself and smiled, “Don’t forget, I have not yet reached the Great Perfection of Golden Core.
Once I attain the Great Perfection, who could stop me!”
Nie Jie’s body shook violently, that’s right, the Sect Leader had not yet achieved the Great Perfection of the Golden Core.
All this time, due to the Sect Leader’s formidable strength, they had even overlooked this fact.
Now that the Sect Leader is already so powerful, if he completes Pill Fusion, then who could stand in the Sect Leader’s way.
Thus, the key to everything was to let the Sect Leader achieve a breakthrough in Pill Fusion first.
Nie Jie suddenly realized, and hastily said, “Sect Leader, what Star Lord Hao Yue did before wasn’t wrong—striving to improve one’s own strength is the most important.
And as your strength increases, it will be the greatest enhancement for our Hundred Peaks Sect.
Sect Leader, what you should be doing now is completing the Pill Fusion.
I know you have the Sect’s interests at heart and are reluctant to use the resources of our Hundred Peaks Sect, but Sect Leader, your breakthrough in Pill Fusion is too crucial for us.
Please use the materials from our Hidden Treasure Immortal Palace to concoct the pills for yourself first and complete the Pill Fusion.”
“The pills for completing Pill Fusion will take more than a year to concoct.”
Cao Zhen said and then paused for a moment before continuing, “Besides myself, I have another method that could enhance the strength of our Hundred Peaks Sect.
However, I’m not certain it will work, although the chances are good.”
The method he spoke of was to improve the cultivation base of Ling Xi and the others.
He indeed found the materials for concocting the pills in the Hidden Treasure Immortal Palace, but he did not want to concoct all four at once, because he could not be entirely certain his idea was without flaws.
If there was a problem with his conception, then the loss of combat capability for the Hundred Peaks Sect would be severe.
Therefore, he needed someone to test it on.
Moreover, the resources required to concoct those pills were not insignificant.
“So, I need to open the Hidden Treasure Immortal Palace once again.”
“Fine, I agree.”
Everyone had seen just how much the pills concocted by Cao Zhen had enhanced the disciples before.
Now that he said he wanted to open the Hidden Treasure Immortal Palace again, nobody questioned it.
Everyone agreed to the opening of the Immortal Palace.
Soon Cao Zhen took out a set of materials that could help a disciple break through the Dao Wind Fire Disaster and started to concoct together.
Now that he was concocting pills in both Pill Furnaces, they would be ready and come out of the furnaces at around the same time.
In the following time, Cao Zhen began to focus on alchemy.
While concocting pills, he also paid attention to the Eclipse Demon from time to time.
If he could find out directly through the Eclipse Demon where the old lair of the Sun and Moon Demon Sect was, that would be most ideal.
Unfortunately, it seemed the Eclipse Demon, being the Hall Master, was either ostracized by the Sun and Moon Demon Sect or something else, as he did not return to their old lair.
After going back, he directly returned to the location of their Eclipse Hall.
Then, half a year later, the Eclipse Demon even entered an ancient relic.
During the Reversal Mini Epoch Period, various relics would appear, which also represented the biggest opportunities of the period.
One such relic appeared not far from the Eclipse Hall of the Eclipse Demon.
The Eclipse Demon led all the people of the Eclipse Hall into the relic.
Cao Zhen, through observing the Eclipse Demon, also saw that this relic attracted numerous experts.
There were no fewer than ten experts at the Ten Different Phenomena of Golden Elixir Great Perfection!
And indeed, the luck of this Eclipse Demon was good.
His own strength was also considerable, allowing him to charge through and make it directly to the final challenge of the relic.
If he could overcome this last obstacle, the Eclipse Demon would obtain the treasure of the relic.
But he was stumped.
Watching the Eclipse Demon, who was troubled and stuck at the final stage of the challenge, Cao Zhen felt a stirring within himself, as if he might just be able to make a move.
