“I roughly understand the situation, but… does Xinyuan Pavilion really need my intervention? Could it be that this caravan is involved with the Five Elements Sect? Or do we need to rely on the power of Da Yue? I can’t afford the latter. If that’s the case, I can only politely decline.”

Lin Xiuyuan said calmly.

Upon seeing this, Qiu Yan immediately said, "Fellow Daoist Lin, please rest assured, it's not that high. What ability or skill does my Xinyuan Pavilion possess, and how could we dare to stir up such a great storm!"

Then, Qiu Yan paused, "But that's right, the Five Elements Sect is indeed behind this caravan, so they came to ask Fellow Daoist Lin for help."

"Because there might be a top-tier combatant among them!"

"Fellow Daoist Lin once displayed unparalleled combat power within the Hengyang Secret Realm. Although things are different today, with Fellow Daoist Lin's abilities, it should not be difficult for him to reproduce his power."

At this point, Qiu Yan looked at Lin Xiuyuan with a hint of probing in her eyes.

Lin Xiuyuan neither denied nor confirmed anything, but instead said, "Regardless of whether it is true or not, I am still some distance from the mid-stage of the Purple Talisman realm, and I am powerless to help in this Purple Mansion battle."

Seeing this, Qiu Yan gave Lin Xiuyuan a deep look, then leaned forward slightly, causing her full breasts to press against the edge of the table, forming a very pleasing curve.

For a moment, Qiu Yan's eyes rippled with tears, her alluring gaze fixed on Lin Xiuyuan, utterly captivating. As she parted her red lips, she once again extended her fair hand, sweeping it across the table, and said:

"This matter is still too early; it will take about twenty years. Fellow Daoist Lin is only one step away from breaking through to the mid-stage, and will naturally possess the power to stabilize the world!"

Lin Xiuyuan did not focus his attention on this extremely tempting scene, but instead focused his gaze on the several bottles of pills that had appeared out of thin air on the table.

The jade bottles contained only simple protective spells, which could be easily penetrated by divine sense, allowing one to sense the surging and rich medicinal aura within.

A hint of surprise flashed in Lin Xiuyuan's eyes.

Bao Dan!

Mid-level Spirit-grade Treasure Pill.

Its effects are several times greater than those of ordinary pills.

Among them, besides several bottles of precious pills, there was also a bottle of Purple Sun Pill, which is a good pill for cultivators in the Purple Mansion stage to break through bottlenecks.

Once you reach the Purple Mansion stage, precious pills become even rarer.

Many rare materials are difficult to buy on the market and exist in the herb gardens of various sects.

In terms of output, it would be quite good if it could supply one-tenth of the cultivators in the Purple Mansion stage within the sect.

This is also because the number of precious pills has increased significantly due to the opening of the Hengyang Secret Realm.

Even so, given his current status and position, he would only be eligible to receive a bottle of precious pills every five years.

Before Hengyang Secret Realm, it would take ten years to get a share.

It's clearly scarce!

Qiu Yan noticed Lin Xiuyuan's interest and smiled slightly, "These pills should be of great help to you, fellow Daoist. Although they may not be as good as those leading talents, they will be more than enough to make you a top-tier fighter!"

"Furthermore, all members of the caravan have the right to choose three items at the same time! According to very reliable sources, the caravan contains two of the main ingredients of the Four Elements Spirit Pill!!"

Hearing this, Lin Xiuyuan was even more tempted.

The Four Elements Spirit Pill is also a pill used to break through to the Golden Core stage.

Its effects are better than ordinary Yang-Yang Breaking Yuan Pill, Condensing Gold Pill, Chao Yuan Pill, etc.

High-quality Four Elements Elixir can achieve a 40% success rate.

Second only to the Yin-Yang Golden Elixir!!

Although, if he can successfully win the chief position, obtaining a four-element golden pill should not be a problem.

However, due to qualification issues, one is probably not a safe bet.

If one has two Four-Element Golden Pills, even if one cannot refine the Yin-Yang Golden Pill, the chances of successfully refining a Golden Pill are still quite high.

In fact, these precious pills alone would be enough to prompt Lin Xiuyuan to make a move, not to mention the main ingredient of the Four Elements Spirit Pill!

However, Lin Xiuyuan still had one last doubt in his heart.

"In terms of combat strength, I am not the most powerful among the many top geniuses. Due to my cultivation level, I am basically at the bottom."

"So, why did you come to me?"

Lin Xiuyuan said calmly.

"It's simple, because the cost of asking you to do it is the cheapest."

Qiu Yan smiled charmingly.

Lin Xiuyuan was taken aback, then chuckled and waved his hand without any politeness, directly collecting the pills on the table. He nodded and said, "Alright, time's up. Send me a message!"

After a pause, Lin Xiuyuan continued, "In addition, there is another matter that requires Manager Qiu's help."

Before he could finish speaking, Qiu Yan tossed out a jade slip, saying, "I prepared this for Fellow Daoist Lin long ago. Considering this cooperation, this information is a free gift!"

Lin Xiuyuan picked up the jade slip and put it in his pocket, then cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, Manager Qiu, farewell!"

...

…………

A pale blue-red light suddenly pierced the air and sped away.

The escape light was clearly that of a powerful cultivator at the Purple Mansion level, causing other escape lights encountered along the way to give way and show respect.

"That's quite detailed... It seems we should remain patient for now, wait until the person behind this can't sit still anymore, or finish this task before taking action."

Lin Xiuyuan rode his sword, examining the jade slip Qiu Yan had given him. After a moment, he couldn't help but mutter to himself.

The information contained in this jade slip is very detailed regarding the situation and power dynamics of Fengxia Mountain.

This includes the Northwest Demonic Path, the various forces that entered the Nine Kingdoms Alliance, and the prodigies, etc.

This naturally includes the fact that several gangs have joined forces to attack the Black Tide Secret Realm and seize the medicinal gardens of the Cloud Soaring Sect.

It's pretty much the same thing as what those other independent cultivators said; the situation is basically the same!

"The Nine Profound Society, the Blood Wolf Gang, the Netherworld Gang... The first is a gathering of rogue cultivators from the Nine Kingdoms Alliance, each with at least two or three peak Purple Mansion level experts as leaders, and the latter two are similar. The second is composed of demonic cultivators from the Nine Kingdoms Alliance, and the third is a group of rogue cultivators from the Northwest Demonic Path..."

"Although they have considerable power when they unite, even though the Cloud Soaring Sect is one of the weaker large forces in Phoenix Cloud Mountain, it's not something they can mess with, is it?"

"Is it really such a coincidence that this was orchestrated just as the Cloud Soaring Sect was reinforcing and stabilizing the enclave?"

"It wouldn't make sense if he didn't have someone backing him!"

Lin Xiuyuan flipped through the jade slip, lost in thought.

While the motive is quite reasonable, the coincidence is too much.

Just when the reinforcements from the Cloud Soaring Sect arrived?

And they were incredibly audacious.

Although it was just an enclave, the Cloud Soaring Sect no longer possessed its former power.

Given the increasingly chaotic and escalating situation, the Cloud Soaring Sect is indeed among the weaker groups.

Even if it is weak, it is still a large force. How could these rogue cultivator gangs possibly have a chance to take it?

"If news of my arrival spreads and they don't retreat, then there must be some force pulling the strings behind the scenes!"
