Han Qinhu had a saying that was "golden advice," which Bai Cang deeply agreed with.
That is: If someone respects me by an inch, I will respect them by ten inches; if someone offends me by three points, I will wipe out their entire family!
If he dares to urinate and defecate anywhere today, he will dare to occupy a mountain and become a king, and the day after tomorrow he will dare to make a scene in the Heavenly Palace, calling himself the Great Sage Equal to Heaven and rebelling to overthrow the Jade Emperor.
I don't even dare to imagine what he'll do the day after tomorrow.
Those who offer their teeth must be broken off, their bodies and souls destroyed, and their bones ground to dust!
Since Li Chunfeng dared to scheme against him, there was no other way out.
In accordance with the simple and honest traditions of the Heshan Sect, it would naturally be a life-or-death arena.
Why did the Crimson Dragon Temple set up a life-or-death arena? Wasn't it to resolve irreconcilable conflicts?
Perhaps in Li Chunfeng's view, today's events have "come to a perfect end".
He even went so far as to compromise and give Bai Cang a lot of face.
But for Bai Cang, this is just the beginning.
Even if Li Chunfeng could swallow his pride and refuse, he absolutely could not avoid the "final battle".
The so-called "final battle" refers to a challenge launched by inner and outer disciples against the true disciples.
As the name suggests, it means "a fight to the death." No reason is needed; if I have my eye on your wealth or status, I can initiate a fight to the death, and no one can refuse any true teaching.
This is a "shortcut to heaven" that Heshan taught to his disciples, both inside and outside the sect.
If you can defeat and kill a true disciple in the "Final Battle," you can directly take their place.
In other words, newly promoted disciples have a three-year grace period; otherwise, Bai Cang felt he would have already received the "final challenge" letter.
And there's a good chance there's more than one, since he's ranked last among the nine true disciples, has the lowest cultivation level, and seems the easiest to bully.
This is also the real reason why Bai Cang is so eager, even impatient, to improve his cultivation and strength.
Generally speaking, true disciples are in the "defending the arena" position during "final battles," but the sect rules do not say that true disciples are not allowed to initiate "final battles"!
As the saying goes: "A single punch can prevent a hundred more."
Rather than passively accepting someone else's "decisive" challenge three years later.
Why not directly challenge Li Chunfeng, the third-generation senior disciple, to determine the victor and decide life or death?
Bai Cang believed that once he had killed Li Chunfeng and taken his place, no one would dare to provoke him again.
Of course, he wouldn't blindly launch a "decisive battle"; he would only act decisively if he was absolutely certain of victory.
However, this does not mean that he could not take any other actions before that.
A gentleman takes revenge even after ten years; Bai Cang takes revenge from morning till night!
With this in mind, Bai Cang leaped up and, enveloped in azure clouds, headed straight for the Pill Academy.
"Junior Brother Yu, let's go!"
"Come with me to the Pill Academy and see for yourself!"
Upon hearing this, Yu Canghai's face turned bitter: "You know, I was doing just fine as a double agent, enjoying myself from both sides, so how did I end up being forced to become Bai Zhenchuan's most loyal confidant for no reason?"
But when you're under someone's roof, you have to bow your head. He had no other choice but to follow along with his head down.
…………
The place where the Dan Academy is located is called "Ice and Fire Valley".
Between the two fiery mountains standing side by side, there is a cold pool, deep and mysterious, covered with lush vegetation.
The cold pool, like a jade belt, flows between two fiery mountains, creating a scene of "two worlds of ice and fire".
Even more coincidentally, the Weaponry Academy is also located here, each occupying a Flaming Mountain with the Alchemy Academy, and has established the Earth Fire Alchemy Chamber/Weaponry Room. The two academies share the Cold Pool.
It's no wonder that the conflict between the two academies of alchemy and weapon crafting is so acute.
They already had a conflict of interest, and being together day and night yet facing each other from afar, they could be said to dislike each other. Furthermore, the matter involved the cold pool water and the distribution of the spiritual creatures in the pool. They even argued fiercely over who had ignited more of the earth fire between the two courtyards.
Let alone the two academies of Dan Academy who already have a long-standing feud, even close brothers and good friends would probably turn against each other if they argued like this for so long!
When Bai Cang "arrived" at the Pill Academy, everyone in the academy rushed out to watch.
Even the opposite Weaponry Academy was bustling with people, all looking in this direction.
Clearly, news of Bai Cang's "confrontation" with Li Chunfeng had already reached this place.
Never underestimate the gossip skills of "amusement seekers" and "spectators." Even trekking through mountains and rivers cannot dampen their enthusiasm for gossip, let alone examples that are right next to them.
"Junior Brother Bai, we, the people of the Pill Academy, have been waiting for your arrival for a long time."
A distinguished-looking young man in a crimson dragon robe stepped forward from the crowd and said, "I am Luo Jin, and I greet Junior Brother Bai."
Within the Crimson Dragon Temple, only true disciples are permitted to wear the Crimson Dragon robes.
Furthermore, given that the other party introduced himself, how could Bai Cang not know his identity?
It was none other than the youngest son of Master Luo of the Alchemy Academy, one of the nine great disciples, known as the "Young Master" of the Alchemy Academy and called the "Third Prince of the Luo Family".
This is not a compliment, but a sarcastic remark implying that Luo Jin's position was illegitimate, suggesting that he relied on his family background.
"Greetings, Senior Brother Luo. I have come to receive the alchemical fire at the invitation of True Master Luo."
Bai Cang nodded and got straight to the point, "Could you please arrange a pill-making room, Senior Brother Luo?"
Luo Jin was quite decisive and immediately had a pill-making room prepared for him.
Looking at Bai Cang, dressed in fine clothes, wearing a jade crown, and holding a fan, he couldn't help but feel a little regretful.
Just by looking at his handsome and extraordinary demeanor, one can tell that his future is absolutely limitless.
However, the relationship between Dan Yuan and Bai Cang is indeed somewhat awkward.
Even Luo Jin, who was eager to make friends, couldn't bring himself to ask, so Bai Cang was even less likely to make a fool of himself.
After all, his hands were stained with the blood of eleven people from the Dan Academy.
Upon entering the alchemy room, Bai Cang immediately sensed the difference between "professional" and "amateur".
Putting everything else aside, the various professional alchemy tools in the alchemy room were beyond the reach of a "country bumpkin" like Bai Cang.
There are three treasures for alchemy: the altar, the furnace, and the fire.
The altar is an essential ritual for Taoist priests in their rituals and ceremonies. It is not only used for alchemy, but also indispensable for daily life and cultivation.
The auxiliary cultivation array in Moonflower Cave is a type of altar.
The altar in this alchemy room is specifically designed for alchemy. It is decorated with runes and arrays. The array flags, bells, and futons are all magical artifacts that can increase the success rate of alchemy.
There are also specific requirements for alchemy furnaces. Small ones use furnaces, while large ones use cauldrons. There are many subdivisions within these, and all of them are complete.
The fire is the key to cooking the alchemy furnace and refining medicinal materials, but it does not only refer to the "furnace fire" but also to the "temperature control".
Some special elixirs are not "fire-refined," but rather involve methods such as water washing and lightning refining. These methods require spiritual water, spiritual liquid, lightning, spiritual sand, or special blood as "fire" to refine the medicinal materials, extract their medicinal properties, and adjust the heat.
However, most elixirs are made primarily through "fire refining".
The "fire seed" in this alchemy room is formed by drawing in earth fire and supplementing it with an altar and array.
Bai Cang walked around the alchemy room and was amazed by what he saw, feeling a surge of envy.
If such a pill-making room could be set up in the Moonflower Cave, how much effort would it save him?
Unfortunately, he could only think about it; not only did his wealth not allow it, but his wallet also had its own ideas.
Save your money, spend your money, and ride your bike to a bar.
Professional alchemy rooms are simply not suitable for a poor guy like him.
"Hmph! The bad students have lots of stationery, while the newbies are just well-equipped!"
Bai Cang snorted coldly, thinking sourly, "I'm a Taoist priest with cheat codes, why would I need these cumbersome external things?"
Thinking this, Bai Cang snapped open his folding fan, revealing the Ghost Realm spread out before him!
