Treasure Gathering Immortal Furnace

Before leaving the forest, Lu Fan glanced back at the cave in the distance, where Bai Rou'er and the others had already hidden themselves.

Lu Fan couldn't just take them away.

Although the demon-slaying assembly was nearing its end, the motley crew of evil cultivators was no match for the Dao Sect and the One Qi Sect.

However, many evil cultivators still lurk here, and sporadic battles still occur. In addition, there are a large number of Daoist sect and Yi Qi sect disciples guarding the outside world.

Therefore, Lu Fan could only wait until there was no longer any threat before returning to lead them away.

Lu Fan and Wang Qingzhu arrived at the outer perimeter of Tiandang Mountain.

By this time, many disciples had already passed by with their loot, but they had also suffered considerable losses; they had come with a hundred disciples.

But fewer than thirty people returned.

Those who remain are naturally the elite.

"This demon-slaying conference has finally come to an end. From now on, the mines of Tiandang Mountain will bring a lot more spirit stone income to my two sects," Yu He said, looking at the Ten Directions Mountain with a wide smile.

"Of course, I've seen it. This one mountain alone contains at least two hundred thousand spirit stones," Steward Ma said with a smile.

Just then, Yan Ruyu walked slowly over with an air of indifference.

Many disciples were excited to see Yan Ruyu arrive. After all, Wan Yang had gone to chase after that evil Golden Core cultivator, and as Wan Yang's closed-door disciple, Yan Ruyu was bound to be the one to distribute the rewards.

They will finally be able to obtain the Foundation Establishment Pill they've been dreaming of.

"My fellow disciples, you have made great contributions this time. On behalf of Elder Wan and the Yi Qi Sect, I hereby distribute Foundation Establishment Pills."

"However, there are only ten Foundation Establishment Pills available. Whoever kills the most will be given priority."

Yan Ruyu said slowly.

Steward Ma frowned slightly and said, "Ten? I remember it was fifteen?"

"There are no fifteen, just ten," Yan Ruyu glared at Steward Ma.

At this moment, Steward Ma knew that Yan Ruyu must have been holding back the money, but since Yan Ruyu was Wan Yang's last disciple, he simply didn't say anything more.

"Now we can take out the spoils of war," Yan Ruyu said.

Then the thirty-odd disciples took out the corpses of the evil cultivators they had killed.

Wang Qingzhu also glanced at Lu Fan.

Although Lu Fan was very unhappy about Yan Ruyu distributing Foundation Establishment Pills, he could only hold back since Wan Yang was not around, and took out the three Qi Refining stage corpses and Chen Xuanli's corpse.

Yan Ruyu also began to count the number of kills by each disciple.

But just as Yan Ruyu walked up to Lu Fan, she glanced down at him and immediately said coldly, "What do you mean? Don't you know you need to kill at least five? What are your four corpses worth?"

"There's one here who's at the early stage of Foundation Establishment. Can't he even hold his own against a few at the tenth level of Qi Refining?" Lu Fan said in a deep voice.

At this moment, Wang Qingzhu also spoke up: "Junior Sister Yan, Junior Nephew Lu single-handedly killed a Foundation Establishment stage cultivator. In truth, he is the disciple with the greatest merit this time and should rightfully receive the Foundation Establishment Pill."

Upon hearing this, the surrounding disciples were all dumbfounded and looked at Lu Fan.

After all, this cripple who usually only collects corpses in the back mountain seems to have poor aptitude, but I never expected him to have this skill!

Cross-border kill of a Foundation Establishment stage cultivator? That's simply out of the question!

But Yan Ruyu saw it differently, and she scoffed, "Him? He can barely walk properly, yet he can kill a Foundation Establishment cultivator? Don't you think people will laugh their heads off?"

"I think it was Senior Sister Wang who killed him, just to make up the numbers for this good-for-nothing. According to the sect rules, this is absolutely not allowed."

Wang Qingzhu frowned slightly, her face immediately showing displeasure, and said, "What do you mean? At that time, Lu Fan fought with this evil cultivator to protect more than a dozen disciples. If you don't believe me, you can ask the junior disciple who escaped at that time if that's what happened."

Yan Ruyu glanced coldly at the disciples around her, and even weighed the storage bag in her hand.

This action silenced all those who had wanted to testify, as they hadn't yet obtained the Foundation Establishment Pill and risked offending Yan Ruyu by having it withheld under other pretexts.

That would obviously be a losing proposition.

"What, no one can testify? Then it's fake," Yan Ruyu said, looking at Lu Fan with a playful expression.

At this moment, Lu Fan's face was gloomy, his fists were clenched tightly, and his killing intent immediately surged!

Before Lu Fan could get angry, Wang Qingzhu couldn't hold back any longer and said, "Yan Ruyu, what did Lu Fan do to offend you! Why are you targeting him like this? Bring me the Foundation Establishment Pill right now, or I'll lose my temper!"

"Why should I take it? Since Elder Wan said that I should be in charge of distributing Foundation Establishment Pills, then I will represent Elder Wan."

"I said he cheated, so he cheated! We will absolutely not give him the Foundation Establishment Pill!"

At this point, Yan Ruyu looked at Lu Fan with a gloomy expression and transmitted her voice: "You cripple, aren't you angry? Weren't you so arrogant? Want the Foundation Establishment Pill? You'd better wait in line for forty or fifty years!"

"You wretched woman, don't think I can't kill you. You should be glad you're still alive!" Lu Fan transmitted his voice coldly.

"Threatening me? You think you can kill me with your crippled body? Do you even have the ability? You're just a piece of trash who only knows how to flaunt your power with Wang Qingzhu," Yan Ruyu transmitted her voice viciously.

Wang Qingzhu's face was grim. He said, "Yan Ruyu, if you don't take it, don't blame me for robbing you!"

At this point, Wang Qingzhu suddenly swung his longsword, unleashing the aura of a late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator, looking as if he was about to make a move.

"What? Senior sister wants to spar with me?" Yan Ruyu was not intimidated at all.

Seeing that a fight was about to break out, Deacon Ma quickly intervened to smooth things over: "Oh dear! Senior sister, junior sister, we're all family, you can't fight!"

"Yes, you are fellow disciples. How can you fight over a Foundation Establishment Pill? I think we should wait for Elder Wan to return and let him decide," Yu He said.

Seeing that there were outsiders present, and that Wan Yang doted on Yan Ruyu, Wang Qingzhu knew that if she really attacked and injured Yan Ruyu, she would be fine, but Lu Fan would definitely be held responsible.

"Fine, I will go and demand an explanation from Elder Wan myself!" Wang Qingzhu sheathed her longsword, her face full of anger.

At this moment, Lu Fan's eyes were half-closed.

In his eyes, Yan Ruyu was doomed.

Because the battle here is not completely over, there are still cleanup tasks and matters such as allocating mineral veins.

With Wan Yang absent, and a Golden Core stage chase battle unlikely to end in less than four or five days, all these matters fell to Yan Ruyu.

He's going to kill Yan Ruyu right here!

Take back the Foundation Establishment Pill!

At this moment, Yan Ruyu had no intention of giving the Foundation Establishment Pill to Lu Fan. Instead, she distributed all ten Foundation Establishment Pills to the other disciples.

Those disciples who received the Foundation Establishment Pills left satisfied on their swords, all planning to return to their sects for secluded cultivation and breakthroughs.

"Now that the Foundation Establishment Pills have been distributed, the other disciples who did not receive any can continue to stay at Tiandang Mountain to do some follow-up work."

"You can accumulate contribution points, which can also be exchanged for Foundation Establishment Pills."

Yan Ruyu left Lu Fan standing aside and said...
