Chapter 3667: Eighth-Rank Immortal Pill Master

Inside the main hall of Dragon Head Mountain, several Elders of the Dragon Family gathered around Long Xuanzhen.

At this moment, his injuries had greatly eased after being treated by the Family's doctor, but his severed arm could no longer be restored.

Long Xuanwen said, "Family Head, I'm still not entirely at ease about Immortal Herb Valley. Should we send more people over?"

"There's no need. They have two Great Luo Immortal Rank experts. No matter how many more people we send, it won't matter."

Long Xuanzhen waved his hand, "To hold onto our share of Immortal Herb Valley, we rely on the defensive Formation. I believe the Luo Family won't be able to break through it within three days."

The others nodded, agreeing with his reasoning.

Now that Long Xuanzhen was severely injured and had lost an arm, neither Luo Bingyan nor Ye Bufan were people they could withstand.

However, a seventh-tier defensive Formation was different. If the opponent didn't understand the Dao of breaking Formations, they wouldn't be able to break through even if they attacked for three months.

But just then, a group of people stumbled in from outside, it was Long Xuanwu and the others who had retreated in defeat.

"Family Head, something terrible has happened! Immortal Herb Valley has been taken by those people from the Luo Family…"

Long Xuanwu was seething with anger, originally intending to ask the Family Head to avenge him.

But seeing Long Xuanzhen, who had lost an arm, and then looking at Long Xuanwen and the others beside him who were also injured, he was completely stunned.

It seemed what the Luo Family said was true; Dragon Head Mountain had indeed suffered a crushing defeat in this Three Families Alliance.

Long Xuanzhen had just been clinging to a last shred of hope, but upon hearing this news, he suddenly leaped up.

"What did you say?"

Long Xuanwu swallowed with difficulty: "I said Immortal Herb Valley was taken by the Luo Family."

"How is that possible?"

Long Xuanzhen was furious, "Didn't I tell you to activate the defensive Formation and not to engage in battle easily?

You useless thing, how dare you defy my orders? Do you have a death wish?"

He was already brimming with suppressed anger, and now he was even more enraged, his entire body radiating Killing Intent.

"Family Head, calm your anger."

Long Xuanwu was startled and quickly said, "I completely followed the Family Head's orders and didn't dare to engage in battle at all."

Long Xuanzhen was momentarily stunned: "Then how was Immortal Herb Valley lost?"

"They had a young brat who broke our seventh-tier defensive Formation with a single kick…"

He recounted the entire incident, leaving everyone present wide-eyed with astonishment.

No one had expected Ye Bufan to not only be powerful but also a seventh-tier Immortal Array Master.

Long Xuanzhen gritted his teeth in hatred: "Truly despicable! Ye Bufan, I will dismember you piece by piece sooner or later!"

Long Xuanwu was somewhat at a loss: "Family Head, what should we do now? Should we try to reclaim Immortal Herb Valley?"

"Reclaim what? Can we reclaim it?"

Long Xuanzhen was completely intimidated. He had lost an arm this time, and if he were to fight again, he might not even save his old life.

"Let's leave it at that for now. Don't act rashly. We'll wait for Lingyun Sword Sect to arrive in three days, and then we'll seek our revenge!"

At Immortal Herb Valley, Ye Bufan led everyone to successfully take over Dragon Head Mountain's share, then turned and headed towards Gu Family Stronghold.

Compared to the heavily guarded Dragon Head Mountain, Gu Family Stronghold presented a completely different scene.

The guards here must have received the news early and had withdrawn completely.

Looking around, it was empty; not to mention a defensive Formation, there wasn't even a single person.

The group walked inside. Gu Family Stronghold held a thirty percent share,

and in the center, there was a small bamboo building.

An old man dressed in coarse linen with white hair and beard sat beneath the bamboo building, with an ancient Pill Furnace in front of him.

The old man was fully focused, solemnly controlling the furnace fire within the Pill Furnace.

A moment later, he threw the already prepared medicinal ingredients one by one into the Pill Furnace, clearly engaged in Alchemy.

Eighth-Rank Immortal Pill Master!

Upon seeing this old man, everyone immediately realized. It had long been said that Gu Family Stronghold was backed by an Eighth-Rank Immortal Pill Master, which was why their strength had increased so rapidly in recent years. It must be this person before them.

An Immortal Pill Master held a supreme status, whether in the Lower Heaven Region or the Middle Heaven Region, and ordinary forces dared not provoke them.

The reason was simple: every cultivator would seek the help of an Immortal Pill Master, and secondly, they had extensive connections, making them impossible for ordinary people to offend.

Because of this, after everyone arrived, they did not dare to go forward and disturb him, only standing by and quietly watching.

Ye Bufan had seen this old man when he came to Immortal Herb Valley last time, but he hadn't paid him any mind.

Now, seeing that the other party was engaged in Alchemy, he also began to watch.

Their guess was correct; the old man before them was indeed the Eighth-Rank Immortal Pill Master of Gu Family Stronghold—Gongsun Hong.

At this moment, he was fully focused, seemingly completely unaware of the arrival of others.

It must be said that this old man had a very strong Aura; sitting there, his every move exuded the demeanor of a Great Master.

Controlling the flames, throwing in the Medicinal Pills, everything flowed like water, a pleasing sight to behold.

Time passed by, minute by minute, and in the blink of an eye, over an hour had passed, and a rich Pill fragrance wafted out.

"Is it about to form a Medicinal Pill?"

Everyone present watched the Pill Furnace with great interest, originally expecting an Immortal Pill to emerge, but soon a muffled thud was heard.

Then a puff of black smoke spewed from the Pill Furnace, indicating that this batch of Medicinal Pills had ultimately failed.

Although the Medicinal Pills failed to form, everyone still dared not show the slightest disrespect towards the old man.

Even if they weren't Immortal Pill Masters, they knew that Alchemy was not an easy task, and failure was commonplace.

Generally, if one in three batches of Medicinal Pills succeeded, that was already an Immortal Pill Master of an extremely high Rank.

Gongsun Hong frowned, uu reading

clearly also very disappointed by the failed Alchemy.

He turned his head and glanced at the Luo Family members: "What are you doing here? Didn't we agree that I shouldn't be disturbed when I'm doing Alchemy?"

Luo Wushan stepped forward, cupped his hands, and respectfully said, "Immortal Pill Master, the Three Families Alliance has just concluded, and this Immortal Herb Valley now belongs to my Luo Family…"

Before he could finish speaking, Gongsun Hong impatiently waved his hand.

"It doesn't matter who it belongs to; this old man only needs to do Alchemy here.

I don't care if you are the Luo Family or the Gu Family, the conditions are the same as before: eighty percent of the medicinal ingredients here are for my free use.

Every month, I'll give you one Eighth-Rank Medicinal Pill, three seventh-Rank Medicinal Pills, and ten sixth-Rank Medicinal Pills.

Alright, hurry up and leave; don't delay this old man's Alchemy!"

His words were full of Aura, as if he wasn't worried that the other party would refuse.

In fact, it was true; it was extremely difficult to invite an Immortal Pill Master to perform Alchemy.

Especially high-Rank Immortal Pill Masters, sometimes one couldn't even get to meet them.

Gongsun Hong had chosen to cooperate with the Gu Family back then precisely because he valued the medicinal ingredients within Immortal Herb Valley.

Now that he was an Eighth-Rank Immortal Pill Master, he needed enough medicinal ingredients to practice if he wanted to break through to the Ninth Rank, which was why he remained here.

What he valued was the resources here; as for who he cooperated with, he didn't care at all.

Luo Wushan showed a hint of joy; gaining the help of an Eighth-Rank Immortal Pill Master would absolutely be a great boon for the Family's development.

However, he had no authority to decide on such a major matter, so he turned to Luo Wuyan and Ye Bufan, seeking their opinions.
