The shadow of the Imperial Heaven Gate could be seen from afar. It had a majestic aura. Looking from afar, among the mountains, palaces were arranged in picturesque disorder. They were dazzling in gold and jade. Among them, red-crowned cranes danced and occasionally let out a few crisp cries.
After Jiang Xiaofan returned to the Imperial Heaven Gate, he went straight to the Hall of Mental Cultivation and threw Jin Mo Hao out of the Mysterious Jade Cauldron. He did not hide anything about what had happened and presented it to the Hall Master of Mental Cultivation.
After seeing the scene he presented, the old man with a stiff expression immediately darkened. A faintly discernible fluctuation of divine power spread out, and the pressure in the space instantly increased greatly.
Jiang Xiaofan immediately sucked in a breath of cold air and couldn't help but shudder. This kind of power was really terrifying. He couldn't even stand steadily. Jin Mo Hao directly went limp and fell to the ground, his face full of fear.
"You're not bad!"
After a long time, the Hall Master of Mental Cultivation spat out these four words and used the same method to "send" him out.
The next day, the morning sun was very gentle. Jiang Xiaofan faced the morning sun and breathed. Because of the spirit pill and the treasured furnace condensed from the Dao Law, his cultivation was already at the Fourth Heavenly Layer of Jue Chen. He could feel his strength.
Wuwei Peak was just like before, but Lin Quan and Tang You had started to work hard to cultivate. Their cultivation gradually increased, and Elder Liu Chengan often walked around the nearby forest, making this place more lively than before.
Jiang Xiaofan stretched. He did not rest last night, but meditated and cultivated. He slowly sorted out and suppressed the cultivation of the Fourth Heavenly Layer of Jue Chen, making his Dao foundation stronger and more stable, indestructible.
He changed into a set of white clothes and walked down from Wuwei Peak, slowly pacing in the Imperial Heaven Gate. Speaking of which, he had been in the Imperial Heaven Gate for a while, but he was not very clear about the distribution of the Imperial Heaven Gate.
The Immortal Dao Sect had a long history, and there was abundant Spiritual Qi. There was a clear line separating it from the mortal world. In the Imperial Heaven Gate, even the most ordinary grass was extraordinary. It was emerald green and sparkling, emitting a faint Immortal Qi.
He had been to the Scripture Pavilion, and there were many ancient books and records, but they were all about the recent years. He wanted to find some books and records about the ancient era, but he found nothing. There was nothing here at all.
On the Emperor Star, the most mysterious word in the world of cultivation was the word 'ancient'. Anything that was related to the word 'ancient' was destined to be extraordinary, because that was an incomparably brilliant era. Powerful cultivators came forth in large numbers, and there were endless almighty figures. There were many legends left behind.
He came out of the Scripture Pavilion and slowly walked to the front of an elegant garden. A faint fragrance wafted into his nose, causing the snow-white demonic beast on his shoulder to open its eyes with a swoosh. Its eyes became bright as it vigorously wriggled its nose.
Jiang Xiaofan was speechless. He raised his head and saw the two large words on the plaque above. They were bold and forceful, as if they were drawn by dragons and snakes, and they emitted a unique charm.
"Is this the Imperial Heavenly Gate's Pill Court …"
Jiang Xiaofan naturally knew about the Pill Court. It was the place where the Imperial Heavenly Gate was in charge of refining pills.
He still remembered that Lin Quan and Tang You were once the disciples guarding the Pill Court. Later on, because they knocked over a medicinal gourd, they were banished to Wuwei Peak by an elder of the Pill Court. They were told to stay there for ten years before they had the chance to come back.
A soft sound rang out. On Jiang Xiaofan's shoulder, the snow-white demonic beast took advantage of the fact that he was thinking about something. Its big eyes blinked, and it was very intoxicated. With a swoosh, it jumped out and went straight into the depths of the Pill Court.
"F * ck, come back!"
Jiang Xiaofan was depressed. He had let the snow-white demonic beast escape just because he was careless. He quickly chased after it, his forehead sweating. He didn't need to think to know that the snow-white demonic beast was going to "look for food"!
His speed was very fast. Like a bolt of lightning, he shot forward and stopped the snow-white demonic beast.
"Can you stop? You can't just barge into this place. Are you trying to get me killed?!"
This was the Pill Court, the place where the Imperial Heavenly Gate refined pills. If he let the snow-white demonic beast enter like this, he didn't need to think to know what the outcome would be. With its appetite, it would probably empty the place.
If that was really the case, he would be in for a tragedy. He believed that there were definitely Golden Pills in the Pill Court, and there might even be treasures like Spirit Pills. If he was harmed by the snow-white demonic beast, wouldn't he be dead for sure?
The snow-white demonic beast cried out. It was hugged by Jiang Xiaofan like a cat. Its two furry claws scratched the void with all its might. Its two eyes stared straight into the depths of the Pill Court, as if it was waiting for something.
"Where did this little beast come from? Hurry up and take it away."
"Hurry up and take it away. Don't let it pollute the immortal Qi here. Otherwise, if something goes wrong with the pill, you'll be held responsible!"
Jiang Xiaofan carried the reluctant snow-white demonic beast and was about to leave. However, at this moment, two crisp voices came from the Pill Court. Two young boys in green walked over with impatient expressions.
They were about eight or nine years old. They had red lips and white teeth. At this moment, they were standing on a high platform in front of the Pill Court. They were very stylish. They pointed at the snow-white demonic beast in Jiang Xiaofan's arms, telling him to quickly take it away. It would pollute the immortal Qi here.
The snow-white demonic beast roared angrily. Although it was young, it still felt angry when it was called a beast. At this moment, it was extremely angry. If it wasn't for Jiang Xiaofan holding it tightly, it would have already rushed forward to bite him.
The word "beast" was a bit harsh. Jiang Xiaofan also frowned, but he didn't say anything. He was too lazy to care about these two children who weren't even ten years old. He carried the crying beast and strode away.
"Hmph, a beast will always be a beast. Its easily angered nature has never changed."
"Look at its snow-white fur, but who knows how dirty it is? Why would someone be willing to carry it like this? Both of them are filthy and smelly things. Hurry up, hurry up, hurry up!"
The two boys were very impolite and didn't give up. Their faces were full of disdain and their words were very unpleasant to the ears.
Jiang Xiaofan stopped in his tracks. He turned around and coldly glanced at the two of them. He was very disgusted with these two boys, almost the same as Zhu Yunlin. At this moment, he really wanted to give them a big slap in the face.
"You dare to glare at us?!"
Before Jiang Xiaofan could do anything, the two boys became angry.
"Which main peak are you from? What's your name? I'll deduct your pills from now on!"
They were the personal boys of an alchemist from the Pill Court. Normally, they would obtain the jade slip of pills from the alchemist and then distribute the pills to the inner disciples of the main peaks.
Dans were something a xiuzhe couldn't do without, so the two of them were the boys in charge of distributing the dans. Even though they were young, they were always flattered by some inner sect disciples because they could secretly deduct or give more.
At this moment, they were very dissatisfied with Jiang Xiaofan's current attitude.
Jiang Xiaofan was immediately amused. He had broadened his horizons. It turned out that there were existences who were even better than Zhu Yunlin in the Emperor Heaven Sect. They even felt superior just by guarding the pills. Furthermore, they were two boys who were eight or nine years old.
"Roar …"
The snow-white beast was already very angry, but now it was even angrier. It suddenly broke free from Jiang Xiaofan's arms and pounced towards the two boys.
"Little White, don't bite them!"
Jiang Xiaofan shouted. These two boys didn't even have the cultivation of the first layer of the Minute Realm. Even if their physiques were slightly better than ordinary people, if they were hit by the snow-white beast, they would definitely become two piles of meat paste.
The snow-white beast stopped when it heard that, causing Jiang Xiaofan to heave a sigh of relief and nod his head in satisfaction. However, at the next moment, it revealed a mouthful of cold teeth and pounced towards the Pill Court, shooting into a room.
"Bang, crack, crack …"
The sound of various objects shattering could be heard, echoing in the room. Jiang Xiaofan was stunned at first, then he was so angry that he wanted to kick someone. He directly rushed over and carried the snow-white beast out.
There were a few shelves on both sides of the room, containing a few gourds of Fasting Pills. The snow-white beast went in and caused a lot of trouble, knocking over a few medicinal gourds. The pills scattered all over the floor, and many of them were crushed by it.
The two apprentices didn't have cultivation, but at this moment, their expressions changed. They were so pale that they were almost transparent. They staggered over, and after seeing the scene in the room, they directly fell to the ground, their faces pale with fright.
"You …"
"It …"
The two boys stretched out their tender white hands and pointed at Jiang Xiaofan and the snow-white beast in his arms. Their young bodies were trembling, and their eyes were filled with fear and uneasiness. Their faces were deathly pale.
"What's going on? What happened?!"
A loud shout came from the depths of the Pill Court. An old man in a purple and gold robe walked out. His cultivation was at the ninth layer of the Spiritual Realm. When he saw the scene, his expression changed and he became furious.
"Master, they …"
"Slap, slap …"
The old man didn't say anything. He raised his hand and slapped the faces of the two apprentices. Their fair cheeks instantly swelled up, leaving behind five clear fingerprints.
The two apprentices were slapped twice, but they didn't dare to cry or make a fuss. Instead, their faces were filled with fear. They knelt on the ground, trembling, and begged the old man to forgive them.
The old man flung his robe and said, "I asked you to guard the medicine, but you broke so many Fasting Pills. What's the use of keeping you? Men, send them away and expel them from the Imperial Heaven Gate!"
Two men walked out from the depths of the Pill Court. Their cultivation was at the seventh layer of the Refinement Realm, and they stood at the side.
"No, Master, we were wrong, we were wrong!"
The two children immediately begged for mercy. Their faces were filled with fear, and they kept kowtowing.
"Take them away!"
The old man said expressionlessly. The two men standing beside him walked forward and grabbed one each, bringing them out of the Pill Court. It was obvious that they wanted to send them away from the Imperial Heaven Gate.
"Don't, Master …"
The two of them were struggling, but their voices were getting further and further away, gradually disappearing.
Jiang Xiaofan shook his head. He couldn't bear it, but he didn't sympathize with them either. The two of them only had themselves to blame for ending up like this.
After the two of them were sent away, the old man turned around. His body was emitting cold air. He looked at Jiang Xiaofan coldly and said, "You destroyed my pills, so cripple your own cultivation. You'll have to chop firewood and add fuel to the fire to atone for your sins!"
Damn it. Jiang Xiaofan was instantly displeased. 'You want me to cripple my own cultivation just because I knocked over a few gourds of pills? You still want me to chop firewood and add fuel to the fire? Do you think you're the Jade Emperor? Keep dreaming!'
He looked at the old man casually and said, "It's just Fasting Pills. If you break them, I'll compensate you!"
"Haha …" The old man laughed loudly as if he had heard the funniest joke in the world. He looked at Jiang Xiaofan, and his voice became cold again. He said, "Compensate? Can you afford it? Do you think I'm a three-year-old child? "
Jiang Xiaofan couldn't be bothered to talk nonsense with him. He flipped his right hand, and a few jade bottles appeared in his hand. He threw them at the old man.
"How old are you? What does that have to do with me?"
He couldn't be bothered to talk nonsense with the old man, and he walked away directly.
The old man's expression turned cold, and he was about to throw the jade bottles in his hand. However, in the next moment, he was stunned. His eyes widened, and he looked at the pills in the jade bottles in disbelief. They were all Fasting Pills!
As a long-time alchemist, how could he not see that the quality of these Fasting Pills was several times better than the ones he had refined?
"Stop right there. Where did you steal these Fasting Pills from?"
With a flash of light, the old man appeared in front of Jiang Xiaofan and looked at him coldly.
