The Blood Ancestor and Mo Jingyun felt their scalps go numb when they saw that the star rune was still there.
Gu Xuan had burned his right arm with the Primal Chaos Sacred Flame. How could it not destroy the star rune?
"It seems that I can't get rid of this thing for the time being."
Gu Xuan wasn't too surprised.
The star rune was supposed to be on the left side of Ding Bupo's face, but after Ding Bupo's death, it somehow moved to his right hand.
It was very strange.
It would be strange if it could be removed so easily.
"Yuntian, come out and help me study it!"
Gu Xuan roared as he looked up.
As soon as he finished speaking, a spatial vortex appeared on the first floor of the Sky Reaching Tower.
The Heavenly Sword Spirit, dressed in white, walked out from it.
"If it weren't for the fact that you wanted to share the treasure, I wouldn't have let you call me here!"
The Heavenly Sword Spirit looked reluctant.
While Gu Xuan and the Heavensfall Sword Spirit were studying the star runes, tribulation clouds appeared in the most secretive area of the Li Family's ancestral land.
Rumble.
The tribulation lightning struck one of the pills.
But the pill wasn't afraid at all. It bounced all the tribulation lightning away! Soon, the tribulation clouds dissipated.
Only a pill was left in the void, shining brightly.
There was a mysterious energy fluctuation on the pill, and it was extremely tempting.
The pill fragrance almost filled the entire ancestral land of the Li family.
"Since you've passed the tribulation, why are you still in the void?
Come back quickly! "
An old voice suddenly sounded. It was full of majesty and didn't allow anyone to defy it.
In the void, the sacred pill trembled slightly, then turned into a ray of light and flew into a medicine cauldron below.
This medicine cauldron was huge. It was at least a hundred feet in size.
There was a space inside the medicine cauldron. It was more than a hundred feet in size. It was like a small world.
In the middle of this small world was a magnificent and luxurious palace.
There were eight giant dragons hovering in the void above the palace.
But if one took a closer look, they would realize that these eight giant dragons weren't real. They were formed by the pill aura emitted during the refinement of the sacred pill! The sacred pill that had gone through the tribulation passed through the body of one of the giant dragons and fell into the palace. It fell into the hands of an extremely old man with a hunched back.
The old man's hair was white, and the wrinkles on his face were like tree bark.
He was already unbelievably old.
But there were more than a dozen martial artists standing respectfully around him.
Among these martial artists, the weakest one was a high-level saint.
Among them, there were even two powerhouses in the Great Perfection Realm! If Gu Xuan was here, he could tell that more than half of these people were acquaintances..
These people were once the upper echelons of the Li Family. When the Li Family and the Ying Heaven Sect clashed, they had all shown their faces.
They weren't only martial artists, but they were also.
As for the other half, they were all unfamiliar faces.
They were only saints and didn't have the presence of alchemists. But since they were here, it was certain that they were the core members of the Li Clan.
The old man caressed the sacred pill in his hand as if he was caressing his own child. In a sense, this was indeed his child.
This was the sacred pill that he had personally refined.
"The feeling of becoming a pill saint is so good.
I never thought that I would be able to refine sacred pills one day.
Moreover, he had managed to refine so many Divine Elixir Pills in just ten months.
The rise of my Li Clan will be unstoppable.
The Burning Sky World's tribulation will be settled by my Li Clan.
It's time for the Burning Sky World to change its master and have a new master of the Heavenly Dao! "
When the old man said this, he was so emotional that his eyes were brimming with tears.
These things were things that he didn't even dare to think about in the past.
"It's a pity that the sin of opening the ancestor's tomb is too great.
The rise of my Li Clan isn't perfect.
I'm afraid I won't be able to see the day when the Li Clan controls the Burning Sky World.
The pill saint created by relying on the treasure left behind by the ancestor is ultimately a fake.
Every time I refine a sacred pill, it consumes my lifespan. "
The old man sighed.
"Lord Pill Saint, don't be so pessimistic.
The ancestral teachings in the tomb recorded that as long as you can break through and advance from a half-step pill saint to a true pill saint, everything will be fine! We all believe that you will succeed! "
A rather young Li Clan disciple said with a fervent expression.
The old man had a white beard.
"Then I'll count on your auspicious words, Yuan Hao.
The Li Clan still needs to rely on you young people.
Among the younger generation of the Li Clan, you have the highest aptitude.
Now that you are already a peak saint, I'll give you this newly refined sacred pill. I hope that you can advance and become a perfected saint soon.
It's a pity that you don't have the slightest talent in alchemy. Otherwise, when you become a perfected saint, you will be able to wield the power of the Li Clan's patriarch.
Sigh, what a pity … "The old man's eyes were filled with regret.
When the only two perfected saints present looked at Li Yuanhao, their eyes flashed with gloom.
"Today, I have to rest for a while. Tomorrow, I can continue to refine Saint Pills.
Everyone, leave.
Yuan Hao, go find Elder Zhi and have him find a good place for you to enter seclusion.
Don't come out until you become a perfected saint. "
The old man waved his hand, and everyone bowed and left the palace.
Seeing everyone leave, the old man's dejected expression gradually disappeared from his face.
His eyes flickered with a sharp glint.
His fists were clenched tightly.
"Hmph! The Wufang Hardlands and the Heavenly Law Faction both want to scheme against the Li Clan and control it. Do you think that I, the Pill Saint, don't know? "
If Gu Xuan were here and heard this, who knew how shocked he would be?
This old man, the Li Clan's so-called new pill saint, was actually the Pill Saint! The Pill Saint's expression was somewhat malevolent.
"Especially the Wufang Hardlands. You bastards sent Elder Zhi to infiltrate the Li Clan and force me to open the ancestor's tomb.
I know very well what you're trying to do! Do you think I'll be at your mercy?
A half-step sacred pill is a joke, but after becoming a half-step pill saint, I've fully comprehended the ancestral teachings.
My Li Clan will finally have a pill saint, a true pill saint! Moreover, none of you can guess who this pill saint is, hahaha! "
The Paragon of Pills laughed uproariously.
Everyone was scheming against him, but he was also scheming against everyone! After laughing for who knew how long, the Pill Saint walked to a corner of the palace.
Soon, he arrived at an extremely secluded refining room. He opened a secret compartment and took out a small, crystalline box.
When the box was opened, a holy pill with an alluring luster and a rich fragrance appeared in front of the Paragon of Pills.
"The Skypilfer Sacred Pill is truly a sacred pill refined by the ancestor himself. It's perfect!"
The Pill Saint looked at the sacred pill in his hand, intoxicated.
"If I can fully comprehend this pill, I might really become a pill saint! Unfortunately, it's too difficult! "
The Pill Saint shook his head and sighed. He began to study the sacred pill in front of him.
Echo Heaven Sect, Skysplit Tower's first floor.
Gu Xuan and the Heavensfall Sword Spirit had given up on studying the star runes.
They'd already studied it for so long. Even if they continued, they wouldn't be able to find anything.
"Forget it. These star runes shouldn't harm me.
Otherwise, I'd definitely be alarmed.
I'll steal — no, 'borrow' — the Skypilfer Sacred Pill, then ask the Vermilion Bird Princess for help. "
Gu Xuan waved his hand.
"Heavensfall, Jingyun, I'll leave this place to you.
Blood Ancestor, let's go to the Li Clan! "
