Chapter 158 Of course not worthy
Yaozong is located in Jiangling City, Jingzhou.
Unlike other sects, the Medicine Sect focuses on refining medicine. In the eyes of the common people, as long as the medicine is refined by a cultivator, it is a panacea that can cure all diseases.
Therefore, Medicine Sect holds a very high status in the eyes of the people of Jiangling City. Every day, people go up the mountain to ask for medicine, and there are even alchemy families in Jiangling City.
Because both the Medicine Sect and the alchemy families were very "obedient", and would give some perfect elixirs to the people from time to time, and the Dayu Dynasty could only turn a blind eye.
Looking at the smoke-filled Yaoshan Mountain, Tie Xiaoyan took a deep breath, raised her hand and waved, signaling her men to stop the boat.
After the boat stopped, Tie Xiaoyan, Hua Youquan, and a group of people from Tiexin Chamber of Commerce walked into Yaoshan on foot.
They are from Ganzhou, but they are not qualified to drive a flying ship into Yaoshan.
Before they had walked for long, Tie Xiaoyan and the others were stopped by disciples of the Medicine Sect.
“Who are you!?”
"Iron Heart Chamber of Commerce has come here to participate in this battle for the medicine pool."
Tie Xiaoyan took out the token of Tiexin Chamber of Commerce from her bosom, thinking that she could pass through with it, but the disciples of Yaozong had no intention of giving way.
"Iron Heart Chamber of Commerce? I've never heard of a Chamber of Commerce called Iron Heart in Jingzhou?"
Tie Xiaoyan had a premonition and sighed helplessly, "Everyone, we are from Ganzhou."
"Ganzhou? Ah~ So it's the Tiexin Chamber of Commerce in Ganzhou, you really want to come——"
"I bet you wouldn't dare to come."
The disciples of Medicine Sect suddenly understood and burst into laughter.
Veins popped out on Hua Youquan's forehead, and the other members of the Tiexin Chamber of Commerce were also very angry.
Tie Xiaoyan seemed unaware of the ridicule from the Medicine Sect disciples and her expression remained unchanged, but her eyes had already turned red.
"Since you all remember, please be flexible. We are in a hurry."
The battle for the medicine pool was overdue, and the notice from the Medicine Sect came too hastily. They tried their best to rush and only arrived on the day of the battle for the medicine pool. If it was delayed any further, something might happen.
"Hahaha - we're not in a big hurry anyway."
"I heard that your Tiexin Chamber of Commerce is planning to use spiritual fruits to compete for a place in the medicine pool. You are not actually trying to deceive us, are you? Otherwise, take some out for us to see. As long as you can prove that you really have spiritual fruits, we will let you go."
The disciples of the Medicine Sect were grinning, with greed gleaming in their eyes.
Tie Xiaoyan sighed and waved her hand, "Really? Then my Tiexin Chamber of Commerce is really out of luck with the medicine pool. Everyone, please tell your elders that we will no longer do this business."
Seeing Tie Xiaoyan being so decisive, the disciples of Medicine Sect were also shocked. They stopped Tie Xiaoyan with an ugly look on their faces, "We were just joking. You have no sense of humor. Get out of the way—"
At the shouting of the leading disciple, the other disciples made way.
"Thank you—"
"Hehe, I hope Miss Tie that you can hold on to the end."
Tie Xiaoyan ignored the sarcasm of the Medicine Sect disciples and led her men straight forward.
The medicine pool is not on the top of the mountain, but in the valley. It is formed by the confluence of streams from different peaks. Countless remains of elixirs are floating in it, and smoke is curling above the pool, which looks extraordinary at first glance.
At this time, many people had gathered near the medicine pool, among which the flag with the snow wolf logo was particularly eye-catching.
Those cultivators did not hide their cultivation levels, some were at the Golden Core stage, some were at the Nascent Soul stage, and they overwhelmed Tie Xiaoyan to the point where she could not breathe.
The one who presided over the dispute over the medicine pool was the fourth elder of the Medicine Sect, a cultivator in the late stage of the Spirit Transformation Stage.
Seeing Tie Xiaoyan and the others coming, the eyes of the fourth elder of the Medicine Sect flashed, and he raised his hands and clapped, "Everyone, first of all, I want to apologize to you for this early fight in the medicine pool."
"What a coincidence! Just half a month ago, my Medicine Sect obtained the legendary Medicine King!"
The words "Medicine King" caused a sensation.
"Yes, it is the Medicine King that you all know. The Medicine King is the incarnation of Cordyceps sinensis, and has reached the level of a Spiritual Transformation. We also spent a lot of effort to please it, invite it to our Medicine Sect, and obtain its shed skin."
"So this time there is an extra piece of Medicine King's remains in the medicine pool, and its efficacy is far greater than before!"
Many people had a burning light in their eyes.
That is the king of medicine, a legendary creature that even first-rate sects can only obtain a few of. Most cultivators only know its name but have never seen it, let alone used it.
Tie Xiaoyan's face turned pale instantly.
"So, the rules of this medicine pool competition have been slightly changed. In the past, my Medicine Sect would provide thirty places, but the Medicine King's medicinal power is limited. The fewer people soak in it, the better the effect, and the longer it will last. So starting today--"
The fourth elder of the Medicine Sect raised a finger.
"The medicine pool only offers three places. Of course, for the sake of fairness, the Medicine Sect will not sell fixed places. Whether you can soak in the medicine pool depends entirely on your ability."
Naturally, this statement caused a lot of discussion, but those here were all from the Jingzhou sect. In Jingzhou, even the first-rate sects have to give some face to the Yao Sect.
Furthermore, the path to becoming an immortal is full of the law of the jungle. If only three people can soak in the medicine pool that contains the medicinal power of the King of Medicine, then they naturally don't want a fourth person to come up and share it.
Tie Xiaoyan loosened her fingers and turned to leave, but was stopped by the fourth elder of the Medicine Sect.
"Miss Tie, where are you going?"
Tie Xiaoyan sighed, "Fourth Elder, I'm not arrogant enough to think I can get a spot."
"Hahaha - Miss Tie, look at what you said. As the saying goes, good luck comes naturally to those who are lucky. You should believe in your luck."
As soon as the fourth elder of the Medicine Sect finished speaking, an evil aura descended and a huge flag with a picture of thousands of demons fell.
A domineering voice sounded.
"Iron Heart Chamber of Commerce, I, the Ten Thousand Demon Valley, have your back. There is one quota for the medicine pool today for the Iron Heart Chamber of Commerce. If you don't qualify, you can compete with me."
The black clouds dispersed, and the person who appeared in front of everyone was Tian Guizi, the number one prodigy in Wanmo Valley.
Everyone present exclaimed in surprise, but Tie Xiaoyan's face became paler and paler, and she didn't feel the slightest bit happy about this good luck.
Zhao Bin and Song Yun from the Snow Wolf Gang exchanged low voices.
"This is not good. The devils are trying to force a sale on us."
"It's probably because the Eighth Heavenly King among the Seven Heavenly Kings of the Ten Thousand Demons Valley was arrested by Governor Huang and thrown into prison. The Eighth Heavenly King was beaten up just for helping the Heavenly Demons to get back their grievances. I think the status of the Heavenly Demons has been greatly affected by this incident."
"what to do?"
Under the gaze of everyone and Tian Guizi, Tie Xiaoyan bit her tongue hard and put on a smile with difficulty.
"It is an honor for our Tiexin Chamber of Commerce to receive the kindness of the Ten Thousand Demon Valley, but..."
"Just?" Tian Guizi raised his voice, no longer hiding his Nascent Soul cultivation, "Why? Do you think that my Ten Thousand Demon Valley is not worthy of protecting you?"
“I am not…”
Tears welled up in Tie Xiaoyan's eyes and she subconsciously looked towards other people, hoping to get help, but unfortunately everyone took a step back.
As for the Snow Wolf Gang, Tie Xiaoyan did not go to see them because the Snow Wolf Gang would definitely not help.
Just then, a disdainful laugh rang out.
"Of course the Ten Thousand Demon Valley is not worthy."
