Chapter 834: Chapter 832: Xu Wendong: I’ve Been Tainted

Xu Wendong is an action-oriented person.

He immediately began to refine the Nine Revolution Golden Pill.

This is a long process.

It took him three full days and nights to successfully refine the Nine Revolution Golden Pill.

It was a cherry-sized golden elixir, appearing as if it was cast from pure gold, exuding a faint medicinal fragrance.

After refining the elixir, Xu Wendong stood up and left Tianyuan.

By evening.

Xu Wendong returned to the Elixir Sect and to the Emerald Bamboo Forest.

”Where have you been these past few days?” Seeing Xu Wendong return, Wuming finally felt at ease.

Although he knew Xu Wendong had killed Dustless, Wuming was always worried until he saw Xu Wendong.

”I took a trip to Tianyuan.” Xu Wendong said as he took out the Nine Revolution Golden Pill: ”Master, please take this elixir quickly!”

Wuming was full of confusion: ”This is... the Nine Revolution Golden Pill?” Speaking of this, his eyes filled with undeniable shock.

”This... this... was refined by you?”

Wuming’s scalp tingled; he was not shocked that Xu Wendong could refine a high-quality elixir.

But the Nine Revolution Golden Pill is different from other elixirs!

It requires a spiritual artifact like the Golden Crow Furnace to refine.

At this moment.

Wuming understood why Xu Wendong could kill Dustless; otherwise, even with exceptional talent, he couldn’t slay Dustless, a Golden Core Late Stage expert, with a Foundation Establishment Stage cultivation level.

He subconsciously swallowed and said, ”No, no, no, this wasn’t refined by you; you found it in Tianyuan, right?”

”Uh, yes, yes, yes, it was a Nine Revolution Golden Pill I picked up.” Xu Wendong knew his master wanted to keep his secret; otherwise, he wouldn’t have said such a thing.

This made Xu Wendong feel a surge of warmth in his heart.

Wuming excitedly took the Nine Revolution Golden Pill, then looked at Xu Wendong and exclaimed, ”Oh, you’ve actually stepped into Qi Refining Stage Level Nine?”

”No, no, no, your realm is somewhat peculiar!”

”Your realm is far above Qi Refining Stage Level Nine.”

”He has a Foundation Establishment Stage cultivation level of eleven.” Xia Hou appeared like a phantom in the Emerald Bamboo Forest.

”Greetings, Sect Leader!” Xu Wendong bowed in salute.

”Sect Leader, did you say Wendong has a Foundation Establishment Stage cultivation level of eleven?” Wuming was bewildered.

It’s well-known that whether it’s the Qi Refinement Realm, Foundation Establishment Stage, Golden Core Stage, or Nascent Soul Stage, each realm typically has nine sub-stages.

Once reaching the ninth layer of any realm, one is expected to naturally proceed to the next realm upon breaking through.

He had never heard of something like a Foundation Establishment Stage having eleven layers.

Of course.

This was also the first time Xu Wendong had heard of it.

Xia Hou said, ”Correct, ancient texts record that some extraordinarily talented prodigies often have cultivation paths very different from ordinary people.”

”They neither solidify pills nor transform into Nascent Souls, yet their strength is not inferior at all.”

Xu Wendong couldn’t help but ask, ”So, I can’t perform sword flight like you?”

He’s always longed to become a Golden Core Realm cultivator and perform sword flight.

If he’s unable to perform sword flight, it would surely be one of his life’s regrets.

”No, no, no!” Xia Hou said, ”You just haven’t solidified a pill, that’s all. Besides this, you can still perform sword flight.”

Xu Wendong breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as he could perform sword flight, it was fine.

As for solidifying pills...

Not forming a pill might be better, as it’s easier to play the pig to eat the tiger!

After all, who would consider a Foundation Establishment junior a threat or take them seriously?

Xia Hou looked at Xu Wendong, hesitated, and couldn’t help but ask, ”May I see that treasure you have?”

He had previously sensed Xu Wendong’s aura, so he came immediately, and on the way, he felt the aura of the Nine Revolution Golden Pill.

Plus, knowing Xu Wendong had been to Tianyuan, he was aware that Xu Wendong must have the legendary treasure.

Xu Wendong activated his thoughts, and the Golden Crow Furnace appeared in his palm.

Though he once silently vowed not to easily show the Golden Crow Furnace to anyone, both Wuming and Xia Hou were people he could absolutely trust.

Moreover, this matter couldn’t be hidden from them, and for this reason, Xu Wendong openly took it out.

”Xu Wendong, disciple of the Elixir Sect Xia Hou (Wuming), pays respects to the Sect Leader!”

Just as Xu Wendong brought out the Golden Crow Furnace, Xia Hou and Wuming simultaneously dropped to their knees, prostrating themselves devoutly on the ground.

Xu Wendong was full of panic: ”Hey, hey, hey, what are you guys doing? Hurry up and get up!”

Xia Hou’s eyes were firm, ”The Elixir Sect traces its lineage to the Medicine King Valley, and the Golden Crow Furnace is the Valley’s inherited spiritual artifact, though both disappeared into the annals of history a thousand years ago.”

”Afterwards, the Elixir Sect was established, with its first rule stating, ’Whoever possesses the Golden Crow Furnace shall be the Sect Leader!’ ”

”I, along with previous Sect Leaders, were merely acting in the position of Sect Leader!”

Xu Wendong felt relieved, though he hadn’t expected that by accidentally obtaining the Golden Crow Furnace, he would inadvertently become the Sect Leader of the Elixir Sect.

He cleared his throat and said, ”In that case, you can continue to act as the Sect Leader on my behalf!”

Though many people crave power.

However, Xu Wendong had no interest in becoming the Elixir Sect Leader; his purpose in coming to the Minor World was simply to search for Xu Fan, as well as his mother’s whereabouts.

Once he found them, he would return to live a carefree life in the mundane world.

He didn’t want the title of Sect Leader to control his life.

Xia Hou was full of respect: ”I will comply with the Sect Leader’s decree!”

Xu Wendong’s lips twitched a bit, then said, ”I’m going back first, you all continue chatting!” Speaking thus, he walked back to his residence.

After Xu Wendong left, Xia Hou and Wuming got up from the ground.

Xia Hou said, ”Third Elder, the great competition among the Four Great Sects is approaching, and this time you shall lead our Elixir Sect disciples to participate!”

”Yes!”

In the past, Wuming would definitely have refused, as he considered himself useless, and attending such occasions would certainly bring ridicule.

But things are different now; with the Nine Revolution Golden Pill, recovering from his injuries is only a matter of time.

Meanwhile.

Xu Wendong returned to his former residence, though it had been destroyed during his Gravity Technique practice, a new bamboo house had appeared.

Yes.

Bai Jie had helped Xu Wendong construct a new bamboo house.

When she saw Xu Wendong return, a spark of brilliance flashed in her eyes: ”Junior Brother Xu, did Senior Sister Zhong not harm you?”

Hearing this, Xu Wendong’s eyes instantly showed a look of humiliation: ”Senior Sister Bai, can we not mention Senior Sister Zhong?”

Bai Jie was full of apology: ”I’m sorry, I dragged you into this! If it weren’t for Senior Sister Bai and me being at odds, she would not have vented her displeasure on you.”

”I... I’m sullied!” Xu Wendong looked dejected; this was clearly gaining from another’s disruption.

There was no other way!

If he didn’t show such humiliation, how would Bai Jie feel guilty?

If there was no sense of guilt, how could he win over Bai Jie?

Indeed.

If Xu Wendong acted magnanimous or even happy, Bai Jie wouldn’t only refuse him, but regard him as a dissolute person.

Therefore, sometimes a bit of manipulation is necessary.

As expected, when she saw Xu Wendong like this, Bai Jie’s heart felt shattered, and she threw herself into Xu Wendong’s arms, looking at him tenderly: ”Junior Brother Xu, I don’t mind that you’re sullied!”

Xu Wendong’s face was filled with anguish: ”Really?”

Bai Jie didn’t respond verbally but rose on tiptoes and kissed him actively...
