Meng Chaoyang’s ascension was anticipated by many and surprised some.

However, it seemed as if Meng Chaoyang had not gone through any real struggles, effortlessly reaching the top, which was somewhat strange.

Out of the three Medicine-Seeking Peaks, the second and third had already been successfully climbed with only the first one remaining.

However, no one really expected anyone to conquer the first peak due to its past challengers being lower level disciples. The climb was incredibly difficult, and for the past three years, no lower-level disciple had been able to scale the Medicine-Seeking Peak.

This year was expected to be no different.

While everyone’s attention was focused on Gu Liuli from the second peak and Meng Chaoyang from the third peak, a loud voice echoed throughout the Pill Sect:

“Lower-level disciple Fang Lin has successfully reached the summit!”

When these words rang out, a multitude of astounded gazes turned towards the first peak, where they saw a figure standing tall.

Gu Liuli from the second peak and Meng Chaoyang from the third peak both turned their attention towards the figure on the first peak.

A look of surprise appeared on Gu Liuli’s exhausted face, while Meng Chaoyang remained expressionless, seemingly not very surprised at all.

“Finally, someone managed to reach the summit of the first peak. That’s indeed rare.”

“As expected, Fang Lin, who has defeated higher-level disciples before, proved his genius.”

“Indeed, Fang Lin may have a mixed reputation, but he is undeniably a figure of significance in our Pill Sect.”

Throughout the Pill Sect, comments about Fang Lin were heard incessantly, some admiring, some awestruck, and some sneering.

Xu Shangao and others were standing at the bottom of the first peak, looking up at Fang Lin at the top, their faces full of excitement.

Even Wu Mengsheng, who had withdrawn early due to injury, was helped over to join the group. He was smiling faintly as he looked at Fang Lin’s figure standing tall.

The three elders in charge of managing the first peak were also standing at the foot of the mountain. Elder Wan and the middle-aged elder were quite pleased, while Elder Gao looked on with scorn in his eyes.

Inside the grand hall of the Pill Sect, Gu Daofeng, the chief elder, opened his eyes at the moment Fang Lin reached the summit, then quietly closed them again.

On a green rock, two sisters, who looked very similar, stood side by side. The woman in green robes with long hair had a slight curve on the corner of her lips as she watched the direction of the Medicine-Seeking Peak of the Pill Sect.

The short-haired, thin young girl next to her was dazed, clutching her sister’s arm tightly. freew(e)bnove(l)

“Little sister, maybe he really can cure us,” Han Yinyue said after a long while. Her voice contained a mixture of hope and…nervousness.

Han Xiaoxing didn’t say anything, only shook her head. From the moment of her birth, she had lost her own light and hope. Even if her sister was full of hope for Fang Lin, she still didn’t believe in miracles.

At this very moment, a towering purple sword light suddenly roared up from the Martial Sect.

The sword light was like a dragon’s shadow, letting out echoes of dragon chants that shocked the entire Purple Mist Sect.

The gazes of all disciples, regardless of whether they were from the Pill Sect or the Martial Sect, were fixed on the dragon shadow dancing high above in the sky.

“This is… a sign of a divine weapon being born!” Gu Daofeng gazed at the sword light that bore the dragon’s shadow and said in a deep voice.

Atop Medicine-Seeking Peak, Fang Lin was also surprised as he looked at the soaring dragon shadow.

“Although this trace of dragon qi is faint, it really does exist. It seems someone from the Martial Sect has obtained an ancient weapon imbued with dragon qi,” Fang Lin thought, feeling a bit helpless. Just as he began to enjoy the admiring gazes from everyone around him after his hard-won ascent, he didn’t expect to have the spotlight stolen away so quickly by the Martial Sect.

Like Fang Lin, Gu Liuli on the second peak also felt a sense of incongruity. As for Meng Chaoyang on the third peak, even with the Martial Sect producing a dragon shadow sword light, he barely showed any change in his expression.

At the Martial Sect, above the Sinking Sword Lake, a pale-faced youth was brandishing an ancient sword covered in rust.

At this moment, a phantom-like small dragon was circling around the ancient sword while the young man’s eyes were tightly shut, seemingly enduring a great deal of pain.

All the Martial Sect disciples on the banks of Sinking Sword Lake watched the young man holding the ancient sword with anticipation and awe.

Boom!!!

The dancing dragon shadow in the sky suddenly fell, returning to the ancient sword.

The young man suddenly opened his eyes, a sharp light flickering in them.

“This sword, Dancing Dragon!” the young man’s voice echoed in all directions.

The next moment, the entire Martial Sect burst into cheers.

“This Qing Jianzi, he truly lived up to his reputation as the top genius of the Martial Sect, such fortune and opportunity to find a divine weapon of the ancient times.” Han Yinyue mused.

“He’s very strong!” Han Xiaoxing, who was beside her, rarely spoke out. Her voice was cold, but it carried a trace of softness that was only revealed when she was with her sister.

Han Yinyue responded with a lovely smile, “What about you?”

A look of pride appeared on Han Xiaoxing’s face as she said, “I’m even stronger!”

In the Pill Sect, Fang Lin and the other two successful climbers were summoned by Chief Elder Gu Daofeng to the grand hall of the Pill Sect.

Inside the grand hall, Gu Daofeng sat high at the top, his aura impressive. On either side below him were lined up many elders. Almost the entire contingent of elders from the Pill Sect had gathered.

Fang Lin had seen such a scene once before, during the validation of his improved pill formula.

Fang Lin also noticed that the atmosphere in the hall was somewhat unusual, with several gaze not resting on the other two but on him instead.

Understanding the strange atmosphere, Fang Lin sneered in his heart. He had already guessed what was going on, but he remained calm, having been prepared to deal with this situation.

The demon qi in Fang Lin’s body had almost dissipated. Upon leaving

Medicine-Seeking Peak, he had stored the piece of demon beast bone in his Nine Palace Bag. As for the medicinal pills inside his body, their effects had been exhausted.

Even if there was still some residual demon qi, it was almost undetectable.

If Fang Lin had come to the grand hall of the Pill Sect full of demon qi, he might have been captured by the elders before he even got a chance to speak. “Greetings to the Chief and respected elders!”

The trio of Fang Lin bowed to Gu Daofeng and the other elders present.

Gu Daofeng smiled and said, “In this year’s Medicine-Seeking Peak expedition, you three performed excellently, each reaching the summit. It’s been three years since all three peaks had someone reach their summits at the same time.

You are all the pride of our Pill Sect. I’m very pleased.”

The three of them bowed again, but none of them put too much stock in his words.

Without further ado, Gu Daofeng gestured and two Nine Palace Bags flew towards Meng Chaoyang and Gu Liuli.

Fang Lin was startled, but quickly regained his composure and bowed his head quietly.

Meng Chaoyang and Gu Liuli were also puzzled. Why hadn’t Fang Lin received any reward?

However, neither of them gave it much thought, as long as they received their rewards, they didn’t care about the others.

“You two may leave now,” Gu Daofeng said. Meng Chaoyang and Gu Liuli glanced at Fang Lin before exiting the grand hall..
