Swordholder

But this time, he suppressed the urge to vomit, his eyes fierce, his teeth clenched, and he actually swallowed it down.

At the same time, he stared intently at the storage bag in Sun Chengzong's hand!

He would win if he could retrieve a pill bearing the mark of the Lord of Wangdong Prefecture.

All the young people in the Chen family are going to die under his scheme!

So even if what he was swallowing was excrement, he had to endure it in order to unleash a massacre later!

Everyone stared at Lu Zhiyuan, grimacing and gasping for breath.

Too bad!

They'd even swallow shit!

Seeing that Lu Zhiyuan was no longer speaking, Sun Chengzong immediately reached into his storage bag, took out a pill, and quietly held it in his palm.

hum!

This completely black pill was surrounded by a dazzling black light.

In an instant, Sun Chengzong narrowed his eyes slightly.

With his powerful senses and vision, he could immediately determine that the pill in front of him, in terms of both appearance and aura, was undoubtedly a Grade 1 Black Pill!

The others gasped, their eyes fixed on the pill, unable to look away for a long time.

Many people could vaguely sense that the pill contained a vast amount of demonic spiritual power.

This force caused the demonic spiritual power within the many beasts in the arena to surge restlessly, their eyes filled with greed.

Chen Guohai's eyes narrowed, and his heart sank.

All the young members of the Chen family turned pale instantly.

Chen Jianming's expression changed drastically, and he muttered to himself: It's over, I'm completely finished!

Sun Wu narrowed his eyes as well, a cold glint flashing within them. Then, as if only now realizing what was happening, he exclaimed in shock, "Father, this is my Black Core!"

boom!

These words immediately caused an uproar in the audience.

When everyone looked at the Chen family again, their eyes revealed a look of schadenfreude.

The slight unease that Lu Zhiyuan had felt earlier instantly turned into ecstatic joy.

He was so excited he almost stood up, enduring the excruciating pain all over his body, and roared hoarsely:

"Hahahaha! Look! Look! This is the Earth-grade Black Elixir, stolen by Chen Jianming. This is irrefutable proof!"

"Lord Sun, seize him immediately! Stealing the Black Elixir bestowed by the Lord of Wangdong is a capital offense!"

"We must also take down Chen Yuan, and all the scum of the Chen family who made the move earlier!"

They provoked and assaulted the young master of the Beast Clan without provocation; their crimes are unforgivable! Arrest them all and throw them into the county prison!

Lu Zhiyuan roared excitedly, his face full of excitement, eager to see the miserable state of all the young members of the Chen family in prison.

The group of law enforcement guards stepped forward again, ready to take action, but Chen Guohai stood firm and did not yield an inch.

"Lord Chen, do you have anything else to say?"

When Sun Chengzong saw that Chen Guohai dared to obstruct him, he immediately questioned him in a cold voice.

Although Chen Guohai is the Grand Master of the Wuxiang Sect, he is the patriarch of the Xuanxiang family and his confidence is by no means weak.

This is the confidence that comes from aristocratic families and class status!

"Hahaha, Chen Guohai, do you intend to openly cover it up?"

Lu Zhiyuan also laughed wildly, full of confidence, daring to rebuke a Grand Master of the Wuxiang Sect in public.

The onlookers, their faces full of mockery, began to discuss among themselves.

"I knew it! It must be that Chen Jianming saw how precious the elixirs were and, for the sake of his family, became greedy and wanted to steal them back to study them."

"That's right, he had a perfectly good motive to commit the crime."

……

The crowd discussed the matter animatedly, all feeling that the matter was now settled and that the younger generation of the Chen family was doomed.

"Oh."

Just then, a cold, mocking laugh suddenly rang out, full of contempt and disdain.

Everyone turned around in astonishment, their gazes all falling on Chen Yuan.

Chen Yuan stared at Sun Chengzong's face, narrowed his eyes, and said calmly, "Lord Sun, why not take everything out of your storage bag and take a look?"

Upon hearing this, Sun Chengzong's face darkened, and he gave a heavy, cold snort:

"Hmph, the evidence is irrefutable. You still want to deny it? I'll grant your wish and take all the pills from your storage bag..."

As he spoke, he took out all the pills from his storage bag, circulated his magic power, and made the pills float in his palm.

But the next moment, his words abruptly stopped, his expression froze instantly, as if he had been slapped hard across the face, his cheeks burning hot.

His pupils shrank to the size of pinpoints in an instant; he couldn't believe his eyes!

hum!

Dozens of pills floated in his palm, trembling slightly with the turbulent waves in his heart.

A rich and mellow fragrance of elixir spread out, and each elixir shimmered with a dazzling spiritual light.

Red, white, black, transparent... all sorts of colorful pills were on display, dazzling the eyes!

What shocked Sun Chengzong the most was that any one of the pills here was many times stronger than the one he had taken out earlier in terms of quality, aura, appearance, and spiritual power!

"Ah...this...this..."

Sun Chengzong opened his mouth, but after a long pause, he finally managed to utter a hoarse, strained voice, "How is this possible?"

At the same time, the surrounding void fell into dead silence, leaving only astonished faces and gasps of shock.

Chen Guohai stared at the scene before him as if he had seen a ghost, then suddenly turned to look at Chen Yuan and swallowed hard.

The powerful families and reclusive experts who were secretly observing the scene widened their eyes in shock and exclaimed in disbelief:

"Heavens...Heaven-grade pills!"

"Heavens! There are so many top-grade pills!"

……

Exclamations rose and fell, creating a tremendous uproar.

Lu Zhiyuan stood there completely stunned, rubbing his eyes in disbelief at the dreamlike scene before him.

Even the prefectural assistant Gou Zongdao and the prefectural governor Niu Sengru, who were secretly overseeing the situation, found it hard to believe!

In Tianqing County, which he governs, so many top-grade pills have suddenly appeared!

"Hehe, it seems you've surprised Lord Sun."

"I imagine even Lord Sun has never seen so many top-grade pills before?"

Chen Yuan had a nonchalant look on his face, as if he thought they were making a fuss over nothing.

He rode his big black horse and walked slowly to Sun Chengzong in front of everyone's stunned gazes. He reached out and gently picked up a white pill.

This pill was originally unremarkable, the least noticeable among all the pills that shone with spiritual light.

However, with a slight squeeze from Chen Yuan, the pill was immediately flattened.

hum!

Immediately following, the terrifying energy contained within the elixir suddenly overflowed!

hum!

A surge of spiritual light erupted, scattering in all directions!

The dazzling sunset glow, accompanied by an extremely rich fragrance of elixir, enveloped Chen Yuan, making him appear like a god descending to earth, incomparably holy!

The refreshing fragrance of the pill made many human cultivators present feel as if their bodies were being purified, and their combat power subtly increased!

"Wh...what?!"

At that moment, Sun Chengzong and Chen Guohai were both so shocked that they took a step back, their expressions changing drastically.

In the shadows, someone couldn't help but whisper in a trembling voice:

"My God, that's... the legendary... holy-grade elixir!?"

These words were like a thunderclap, instantly igniting the entire Tianqing County!

The Chen family's senior members, who were secretly watching the battle and were led by Chen Qingcang, were all stunned on the spot.

Everyone turned to look at the four alchemy hall masters.

The four white-haired old men shook their heads in unison, their faces showing bitterness, indicating that it was not their doing.

"Could it be... that the young master made it?"

An alchemist guessed in a trembling voice.

"Absolutely impossible!"

A temple master with gray hair and a gray robe immediately shook his head in denial.

His face was full of disbelief: "Just a few days ago, the young master went to the alchemy room to ask me about alchemy methods and learn about the basics of alchemy."

"In my humble opinion, the young master was completely ignorant of alchemy at that time!"

Upon hearing this, the Chen family's senior executives were even more bewildered.

If it wasn't the four hall masters or the young master, then where did these top-grade pills come from?

There are even legendary holy elixirs?

Saint-grade elixirs are extremely rare; even in the capital of the Great Xiang Empire, there are very few of them.

The fact that one has now appeared in the small Tianqing County is simply like a fairy tale.

But as the words "sacred elixir" spread throughout the venue, the entire scene erupted in excitement.

Countless people were shaken to their core, their eyes wide with shock!

People's eyes were filled with burning greed, and they couldn't wait to rush forward and snatch the sacred pill from Chen Yuan's hand!

The human cultivators were even more fervent.

The effects of this sacred elixir are terrifyingly powerful; it can not only purify the physical body tenfold, but also transform one's very being.

It increases magical power many times over, its allure is irresistible!

The way everyone looked at the Chen family members changed completely.

A terrifying thought arose in everyone's minds:

If the Chen family is capable of refining Heaven-grade or even Saint-grade pills, yet they have deliberately concealed it, only displaying their Profound-grade pill-refining level... My God, they've been hiding it far too well!

The more they thought about it, the more terrified they became, and a chill ran down their spines.

Could it be that the Chen family, with their deep-seated forbearance and unpredictable schemes, has already secretly cultivated a Purple Mansion True Person?

Or even, Daotai Zhenjun?
