People in the Qin Dynasty, entertained during the Warring States period

Once Xinghun made up his mind, he exhaled a breath of turbid air.

In order to take control of his own destiny, he squeezed out almost all of his potential, and in just two years, he had already reached the strength of a half-step grandmaster.

This was also thanks to the Moon Goddess, who, mindful of the scarcity of skilled subordinates, allowed Lord Yunzhong to open his alchemy furnace and refine pills, generously rewarding him and the talented disciples within the sect.

It's a pity that the Immortal Gathering Pill refined by Yun Zhongjun was an incomplete product. Otherwise, even if I had taken the True Person Pill, I could have directly entered the Grandmaster realm instead of being stuck between the first-rate and half-step Grandmaster realms as I am now.

Thinking of this, Xinghun couldn't help but glance at the purple-haired girl beside him.

Expressionless and silent, like a walking corpse, a puppet.

But he knew that the girl beside him had even more exaggerated potential and talent than he did. She was the chosen one, Shao Siming, whom Donghuang Taiyi had personally confirmed was destined by heaven.

He had drug residue and drug resistance, but the purple-haired girl beside him seemed unaffected by it.

While he was still stuck at the half-step Grandmaster level after taking the same pills, the purple-haired girl beside him had already broken through to the half-step Grandmaster level and was advancing rapidly toward the Grandmaster level.

For the first time, Xinghun felt a pang of regret, regretting that he had overdrawn his potential too early instead of cultivating diligently for many years like the purple-haired girl beside him and achieving instant success.

The moon goddess turned around and looked at the two people in front of her.

She said earnestly, "I hope that you two can break through to the Grandmaster level soon. The world is about to be in turmoil. Whether our Yin-Yang School can take this opportunity to suppress the other schools of thought depends on you."

After speaking, the Moon Goddess looked at the girl.

"Your potential is the strongest in the Yin-Yang School. From this moment on, you will be the Junior Master of the Wood Department of the Yin-Yang School."

The girl bowed slightly, her expression unchanged, and remained silent.

The moon goddess didn't take it seriously.

Compared to that vile bitch Da Siming, she preferred a tool like Shao Siming.

"Master, the High Priest and the others have arrived..."

Xinghun looked out of the sandbar.

The Moon Goddess looked up and saw Cao Ze and Yan Fei walking on the water towards her.

A smug smile appeared on her lips.

"Great Master of Fate, now that your mission is complete, it's time to send you on your way..."

The moon goddess's cold, somber mutterings.

She never intended to spare the life of that bitch, Da Siming, from the very beginning.

The reason she was spared was simply to make use of her and lure Cao Ze into the trap.

At this moment, Yun Zhongjun walked over.

"Master, there may be a problem with the formula for the Gathering Immortal Pill. I have failed again."

The Moon Goddess narrowed her eyes, watching Cao Ze and her senior sister approach, and said without turning her head, "I don't care about the problem, I only ask one question: can you solve it?"

Yun Zhongjun Xu Fu was somewhat troubled. It wasn't that he hadn't thought about a solution. If it were that easy to solve, and if he could combine it with the True Person Pill that could open up the eight extraordinary meridians, the Yin Yang School would have been able to mass-produce top-notch experts long ago.

But if I said no, given the Moon Goddess Cult Leader's temper, I'm afraid I'd be in trouble.

"According to the words of the former leader of the Eastern Emperor Sect, this elixir formula was left by Xiang Jun Shun, who said that this elixir represents the highest level of alchemy. Those who can refine it are all grandmasters of alchemy."

Yun Zhongjun felt a little wistful, and also had a slight guess.

It might not be that the pill formula is flawed, but rather that his skill level is too low. If he could become a half-step Grandmaster, he would have a greater chance of successfully refining the pill with the help of the power of heaven and earth.

The Moon Goddess said calmly, "Is this pill any more difficult to obtain than the elixir of immortality?"

Yun Zhongjun Xu Fu said with a wry smile, "They are different."

The formula for the elixir of immortality is more like a poison. All you need to do is take out the ingredients and refine them according to the proportions. With his alchemy skills, he can get it pretty close to the mark.

However, this also makes it extremely difficult to modify or remove the side effects of the elixir of immortality.

The Gathering Immortal Pill is different; it is so perfect that it doesn't require high-quality materials, but it demands an extremely high level of alchemy skill.

He even doubted whether this was a recipe for an elixir left behind by ancient immortals and gods.

The Moon Goddess said displeasedly, "After all this time, this is all the progress you've made?"

She had neither the Immortal Gathering Pill nor the Elixir of Immortality, which she valued most. If it weren't for the fact that she didn't have many talented subordinates, she would have killed people to establish her authority.

Xu Fulian said, "Yes, yes, there have been some results."

"What results?"

Xu Fu said, "When I was testing the elixir of immortality on those people and trying to fuse it with the longevity pill, I unexpectedly discovered that the medicinal power in the residue of the failed fusion could turn the medicinal people into puppets, which I named Yin Yang Attendants."

The Moon Goddess asked with great interest, "Not a Ghost-Controlling Pill?"

Controlling people is like driving away ghosts; one can do as one pleases. This is the unique Ghost-Controlling Pill of the Yin-Yang School, which can control people as if they were little ghosts.

Above that is a Soul-Separating Pill, which is an enhanced version of the Ghost-Controlling Pill, capable of completely controlling second-rate masters.

Xu Fu said, "It is not a ghost-controlling pill, but a special medicine that can make people float around like ghosts, flying here and there, and be loyal to their master."

"Most importantly, compared to the Ghost Control Pill, this medicine can be produced in large quantities. The sect's own collection alone is enough to control thousands of people."

The Moon Goddess raised a delicate eyebrow slightly. "What are its shortcomings?"

Xu Fu chuckled and said, "The shortcoming is that these Yin-Yang attendants can only mechanically execute orders, and they can only affect ordinary people."

The Moon Goddess pondered, "If the Yin-Yang School could use this to build a well-trained and loyal army, and equip it with the best weapons and equipment..."

Xu Fu was startled, never expecting the Moon Goddess to be so bold.

But upon closer examination, such an army, once formed, would likely be the most invincible elite force among the seven kingdoms.

The reason is simple: even the most elite armies will face collapse if they suffer more than half their casualties.

But the Yin-Yang attendants do not.

"Moon Goddess Cult Leader, please reconsider..."

The Seven Kingdoms were already wary of the Hundred Schools of Thought; with the Yin-Yang School acting this way, they might just be the next ones to be besieged and annihilated.

Armor, weapons, warhorses, supplies... these things cannot be hidden from those who are observant.

The moon goddess remained noncommittal, gazing towards the water's edge.

Now that Cao Cao has arrived, this is not the time to dwell on this matter.

But she will not give up easily.

Being the leader of the Yin-Yang School is nothing compared to being a queen!

If Hu Ji can become the queen of the wolf clan, why can't the moon goddess do the same thing?

Cao Cao once said that in ancient times, it was still a matriarchal society!

She, the Moon Goddess, aspires to emulate the Goddess of the Nine Heavens!

Rebuild the glory of the matriarchal system!

"Crash..."

A dazzling golden dragon-like aura crashed onto the water in front of Cao Ze and Yan Fei.

The Moon Goddess took a step forward, rising three feet into the air, high above.

"That traitor Cao! Senior Sister! Grand Master of Fate!"

The Moon Goddess read out the names of the three people one by one, her tone chilling and indifferent.

Yan Fei had no intention of fighting the Moon Goddess.

"Junior sister, where is Master Nan?"

"I am here..."

A thunderous sound suddenly exploded.

Cao Ze and Yan Fei looked into the depths of the sandbar.

The usually smiling and harmless Chu Nan Gong was now glaring and furious.

The Moon Goddess sneered, "With the Yin-Yang Five Elements Reversal Formation formed by hundreds of elite disciples of the Yin-Yang School, Master Nan, you can forget about getting out today!"

She knew that Chu Nan Gong's strength far exceeded that of ordinary grandmasters. If it weren't for the limitations of heaven and earth, he could definitely ascend to the heavens in one step and become a true Celestial Realm expert.

Instead of being like now, having the realm of celestial beings but lacking the true authority of celestial beings.

Yan Fei suddenly shouted, "Junior Sister! A great calamity is about to befall the world, yet you attack Lord Nan! You have gone too far! Release Lord Nan at once!"

The Moon Goddess chuckled.

"Senior sister, do you know what? In my eyes, you're so hypocritical and deceitful. Do you really think you're a saint?!"

Yan Fei never considered herself a saint. This was evident from her past ruthless killings. She was a person indifferent to life, except for those she cared about.

But under Cao Ze's influence and his generous teaching, she herself didn't know why she gradually began to care about ordinary people and their fate.

"Junior sister, you're asking for it again!"

The Moon Goddess snorted coldly, "Senior Sister, don't try to scare me with that!"

"Junior sister is no longer the junior sister she used to be!"

"The gap between a Grandmaster and a Master cannot be bridged by your combat experience alone!"

Cao Ze coughed lightly and said with a faint smile, "What if I join you?"

Then he glanced at the Grand Master of Fate.

The High Priestess stammered, "And me..."

"Speak louder!"

Cao Ze shouted, "Haven't you eaten?"

The High Priestess jumped, exclaiming, "Me too!"

Anyway, the curse mark on her body has been removed by Lord Dongjun, so she is not afraid of being controlled by the Moon Goddess Cult Leader.

The Moon Goddess asked, "Where is the Soul of the Lesser Fate Master?"

"Shh!"

Xinghun leaped out, the purple markings on the boy's face looking particularly eerie.
