Lord Zhou You of Haojing City spoke again: "The winner of this Top 100 Competition has been decided! The prize will be awarded according to the rules! Come and collect your prize!"
A row of young women were seen holding trays with prizes for the top three winners!
The first place winner will receive 3 Strengthening and Vitality-Boosting Pills! The second place winner will receive 3 Strengthening and Vitality-Boosting Pills! The third place winner will receive 3 Vitality-Boosting Pills!
The top three rewards are all elixirs! But they are fundamentally different!
The elixir Lin Caogen obtained not only strengthens his foundation but also enhances his ability to absorb vital energy and adapt to his body! Most importantly, it breaks through barriers! It eliminates hidden dangers caused by his cultivation, preventing him from suffering a qi deviation in the future! This is of paramount importance!
It can be said that the price of the Strengthening and Nourishing Pill is dozens of times that of the Nourishing Pill!
The longer the name, the stronger the medicine!
Lord Zhou You of Haojing City spoke again: "In this martial arts competition, the grassroots member of the Wuwei Sect has stood out from the crowd! It has been truly awe-inspiring! I have decided to award an extra prize: a villa in Emerald Mountain Manor! Please come forward and collect the key, young fellow!"
These words shocked the entire audience!
Shi Xingsen of Fanyin Valley revealed a chilling expression in his eyes!
Those villas in Emerald Mountain are all occupied by government employees! If Lin Caogen moves into Emerald Mountain Manor, he'll inevitably have to deal with people in government positions! It seems Zhou You intends for Lin Caogen to have more contact with officials so that he can have a better career path in the future!
Lin Caogen hurriedly stepped forward to thank Zhou You!
Yunhai laughed and said, "That Caogen fellow! Now that he has a large estate, we'll have a place to stay when we come to Haojing City in the future!"
Zhou Youdao said, "The competition is over! Prizes have been distributed! All sects, prepare for next year's rematch! Evacuate in an orderly manner, and avoid trampling!"
The Wuwei Sect members were overjoyed and ready to return! This time, they not only won first place in the competition, but also obtained three Nascent Soul Pills refined from Zhongzhou! This was the greatest gain!
Yunhai booked a private room at public expense and said, "Brothers! Let's go drink!"
At the dinner table, Yunhai expressed his gratitude! He then said, "Grassroots! This time, Master has to thank you! With this Nascent Soul Pill, I will definitely reach the Nascent Soul stage within half a year! Thank you for everything you have done for the sect! You must cultivate diligently! You are already at the peak of the Body Refinement stage! In another ten or twenty years, when you have cultivated to about 70-80% of the Meridian Condensation stage, Master plans to pass the position of sect leader to you! Xunhuan and I will both become Supreme Elders!"
Lin Caogen hurriedly replied, "I will never forget the great kindness of the sect leader in cultivating me! I will certainly live up to everyone's expectations and strive to cultivate diligently!"
Yunhai continued, “The world is about to descend into chaos! The outside world is extremely dangerous! With Senior Mu currently in charge of the Wuwei Sect, there’s no need for us to rush back! Brother Xunhuan! Junior Sister Cangyue! For the next six months, let’s stay at Caogen’s manor and focus on improving our cultivation! The Nascent Soul Pill is extremely important! If we rashly return to the sect, we might be robbed by a pack of wolves on the way!”
Li Xunhuan said, "Brother Hai is absolutely right! Now we, the commoners, are fortunate to have acquired a manor! It's enough to house dozens of people! This will save us a lot of rent! After resting for half a year, we'll return to the sect!"
Yunhai added, "Grassroots! You've already reached the peak of the Body Refinement stage! That Foundation Strengthening and Barrier Breaking Pill was refined by a sixth-grade alchemist from Zhongzhou, and the pill itself is of 9-pattern quality! It's extremely precious! We martial artists must take Foundation Strengthening and Barrier Breaking Pills at the end of each realm to eliminate hidden dangers and lay a solid foundation for the next stage! Originally, you should have waited until you reached the peak of the Core Formation stage to take that pill! But I see you won't be short of money in the future! Take it tonight after you go back!"
Lin Caogen nodded and said, "Yes, Master! I will definitely lay a solid foundation for the Body Refinement stage this week!"
Yunhai said, "Good! Today is a joyous occasion, but everyone must remember that excessive joy can lead to sorrow! So everyone should drink less! Hurry back and cultivate! The road ahead is long! Do not be arrogant!"
The disciples all nodded in agreement!
After arranging for Yunhai, Li Xunhuan, Cangyue, and others to stay at Emerald Manor, Lin Caogen took the three women back to his villa!
He immediately went to Yao Mengchen to tell him about the day's battle!
Upon arriving at Yao Mengchen's villa, we saw the elderly gentleman drinking tea and reading a newspaper!
He stroked his beard and said, "The media these days really exaggerate! Look at what they're saying here! Lin Caogen single-handedly fought three Core Formation stage experts, taking their lives with dozens of flying knives! He established the Wuwei Sect's reputation for ten thousand years in one battle! To be honest, I don't believe you have that ability!"
Lin Caogen chuckled sheepishly and said, "These people have ulterior motives! I would have a hard time defeating even a peak Core Formation stage expert by myself!"
Behind her, Fu Yunxuan said, "We owe our victory this time to Elder Yao's guidance! Our understanding of the Annihilation Sword Scripture's Thorn Scroll has also been of great help to us!"
The old apothecary smiled and nodded, saying, "I heard you obtained a third-tier Foundation Strengthening and Barrier Breaking Pill. Let me see!"
Lin Caogen hurriedly handed a Hunyuan pill to the old doctor!
The old alchemist chuckled and said, "This pill has been refined to the 9th level! Not bad! But the alchemy technique is too clumsy! The level of flame used is also insufficient! And the alchemist's soul power is not strong enough! Come with me!"
After saying this, the old doctor led everyone into his immortal abode!
He flew to the green mountain within the immortal abode and faced his own alchemy furnace!
"Grassroots! Today I'll teach you how to refine pills again! Watch first! Observe carefully! Learn a lot!"
"Yes, Master!"
"You two girls, give me your Strengthening and Breakthrough Pills too!"
Fu Yunxuan and Mu Wanqing hurriedly handed their pills to the old doctor!
The old doctor used his soul power to send three pills directly into the alchemy furnace, and the Nine Netherworld Hellfire burst forth from his palm!
