Chapter 61 – The news sent shockwaves throughout the kingdom!

  Due to the lengthy process of refining frade pills, Xiao Long primarily focused on produg a rge quantity of top-tier third-grade pills this time, along with a few easily refined frade pills.

  With the assistance of his e and the newly acquired Four Symbols Treasure Cauldron, Xiao Long's pill refining speed increased more than threefold. Even for frade pills, it only took him a day or two to refine one.

  During this long process of pill refining, the outside world remained calm. The signifit event of six alchemists' deaths did not spread, and even Gu Yun did not e to cause trouble, which was ued for Xiao Long.

  The Qianlong Bank was still in a dismal state, with members leaving oer another. Now, only Wan Jianfeng and Su Ya remained, along with a few temporary workers. Even the guards at the au house had left.

  Wan Jianfeng, left with no choice, had to sell off the subsidiary industries like Wanxiang Pavilion, Qianlong Tavern, and the silk shop at low prices, leaving only the core au house.

  "Lord Xiao, I've even offered up the treasure cauldro by Qin Hai. The fate of the bank is in your hands now!"

  Wan Jianfeng prayed silently.

  Days passed, aher enemies nor the army of the Beast Tami came, which was quite strange.

  Three weeks ter, a thunderous explosion suddeed from the secret chamber, shaking the entire bank. Wan Jianfeng quickly rushed to the entrance of the chamber, only to see a massive hole blown into the floor, with billowing bck smoke emerging from it.

  tless formation traces appeared on the ground, with an illusory light shield c the hole, indig the Qianlong Formation's automatic defense mode.

  "Lord Xiao!" Wan Jianfeng was shocked and hurried into the secret chamber.

  He had heard that if somethi wrong during pill refining, it could lead to an explosion, and even the Qianlong Formation had been triggered. The explosion must have been intense. If anything happeo Xiao Long, Wan Jianfeng would be doomed.

  When he rushed into the chamber, he did not see the tragic se of Xiao Long's body shattered. Instead, he saw a charred figure sitting cross-legged on the ground, muttering to himself.

  "Indeed, without reag the Prenatal Realm, it's still impossible to refine fifth-grade pills. Let's stop here for now."

  Xiao Long stood up, patted himself, and the carbonized parts of his body fell off automatically, revealing smooth skin.

  As he turned around, he saw Wan Jianfeng standing at the doorway, looking dazed.

  "Wan Jianfeng, this is what I casually refined. You ha."

  Xiao Long tossed over a ste ring, and Wan Jianfeng meically caught it. Just a gnside was enough to make his mind feel like it had been struck by lightning.

  "Ten Qi densing Pills, ten Scarlet Blood Pills, ten gxu Pills, and... a frade Breakthrough Pill!"

  Wan Jiarembled with excitement, looking at Xiao Long with tears glistening in his eyes.

  "Thank you, Lord Xiao, for saving my bank. I, Wan, will forever remember your kindness." He raised his hands high, respectfully kneeling and bowing down.

  That evening, the Qianlong Bank headquarters annouhat a week ter, they would hold a pill au, selling thirty third-grade pills and three frade pills at the Fire Cloud City branch!

  The news sent shockwaves throughout the kingdom!

  ...

  The day, tless families and forces, big and small, rushed to the Qianlong Bank to inquire about the news, only to be turned away. That evening, the long-absent City Lord of Fire Cloud City, Han Wuxie, personally appeared, using his strength as an Innate Expert to awe the crowd, finally persuading Wan Jiao open the doors and invite him in!

  However, it wasn't long before Han Wuxie emerged, and upourning to his residence, he quietly sold off a rge number of treasures, including a quasi-Innate Spiritual Treasure, g it was to raise funds.

  Meanwhile, rumors spread that the frade pills to be sold by the Qianlong Bank included one Breakthrough Pill and two Spirit Molding Pills.

  The news caused a frenzy throughout the Tianfeng Kingdom!

  The Breakthrough Pill: It has about a thirty pert ce to help someo the tenth level of the Qi densing Realm break through the bottlened ehe Prenatal Realm!

  The Spirit Molding Pill: It reshapes one's foundation, greatly enhang prehension and talent, allowing for rapid cultivatiress, transf an ordinary person into a super genius.

  Both the Breakthrough Pill and the Spirit Molding Pill are supreme-grade frade pills! Their value is beyond words!

  "What!"

  In the Fire Cloud Sect, Xue Wuqing, who was in seclusio up in shock, a fervent gleam fshing in his icy eyes.

  "The Breakthrough Pill, I must obtain it!" After his st breakthrough, Xue Wuqing was already at half-step Prenatal, just a step away from the level.

  For him, taking the Breakthrough Pill meant an hty pert ce of success!

  "The Spirit Molding Pill is tailor-made for my son. Our Wang family must have it!" In the Wang family of the Capital, the head of the family immediately ordered the preparation of funds to head to Fire Cloud City.

  "Who would have thought that such a small Tianfeng Kingdom would produce frade pills? I must see it for myself!"

  In the Alchemist Guild of the Capital, the Tianfeng Pill King stroked his beard a off southward.

  ...

  While people from all over the try flocked to Fire Cloud City, Xiao Lohe Qianlong Bank and arrived at the entrance of the Fire Cloud Se the eastern part of the city.

  Before him was a majestic mountain, with a staircase winding up endlessly from the foot of the mountain. Beside it stood a fiery red cloud pque with the words "Fire Cloud Sect" written on it.

  "Hmph! It's time to collee i!" Xiao Long looked up at the endless mountain path, a cold smile on his face.

  The Fire Cloud Sect had closed its gates, activating the Mountain Prote Array. From a distance, only a hazy mist could be seen, with no disciples guarding the entrance, making it unclear how to enter.

  Xiao Long was unimpressed. Such a formation was at best a top-tier tenth-level illusion array, which might stop others but not him.

  With a wave of his hand, Xiao Long traced a few mysterious arcs, his movements dazzling. After just a few breaths, a faintly disible door appeared ahead.

  Xiao Long stepped forward aered the door.

  As soon as Xiao Loered, a cute, snow-white fox quietly appeared behind him, blinking its eyes and following him through the door.

  Upoering, the sery before Xiao Long ged dramatically. The mountain was filled with tless white-tiled houses and pavilions, surrounded by spiritual qi, resembling a paradise. But Xiao Long khat the external se was just an illusion; this was the true appearance of the mountain.

  "Who dares trespass into the Fire Cloud Sect!"

  A stern voice rang out, and a Fire Cloud Sect dea leaped down from the top of a pavilion, brandishing a long sword at Xiao Long.

  "Summon your sect master to see me!" Xiao Long said calmly.

  "I! Our sect master is not someone you meet at will. Surrender now!" The dea was angry but did not advah his sword, as he couldn't dis Xiao Long's strength.

  "I'll give you the time it takes for a stick of inse to burn to call Liao Huoyun over. If he doesn't e, I'll kill one person with each breath!"

  After speaking, Xiao Long sat down cross-legged and closed his eyes to rest.
