"Is he insane?"
Back in his cave dwelling, as he sat down to meditate and cultivate, the moment he closed his eyes, two enormous wings loomed before him.
At the same time, Winged Immortal's annoyingly smug face appeared, grinning as he said, "White Crane, why are your wings so small?"
"Are you even up to it, White Crane?"
White Crane Boy snapped his eyes open, nearly falling into qi deviation, and couldn't help cursing under his breath.
"Is he insane?!"
Chapter 10: Mysterious Sun Pills Sweep Kunlun Mountain—Everyone's Pretty Big
Winged Immortal's wings had swelled tenfold in size.
Naturally, White Crane Boy abandoned any thought of secluding himself for cultivation.
He roamed Kunlun Mountain all day long.
Every person he met, he'd flaunt his wings, boasting of their unparalleled beauty.
It wasn't until his close friend Qiu Shou Xian asked the reason that Winged Immortal finally explained.
"This Humble Daoist went to Junior Brother Xuandan and begged for a Mysterious Sun Pill."
"Now I've broken through to Golden Immortal, and look at these big wings of mine—pretty handsome, right?"
Qiu Shou Xian automatically tuned out the last sentence of his friend's bragging.
He caught the key points instead.
Junior Brother Xuandan, Mysterious Sun Pill, breakthrough to Golden Immortal!
Soon, the news that Winged Immortal's wings had grown larger after swallowing a Mysterious Sun Pill spread across all of Kunlun Mountain.
The Mysterious Sun Pill could stimulate the bloodline within a living being's body.
Innate divinities might not be overly eager for it.
But to disciples of the Demon Race, this pill was the supreme elixir.
Bloodline rank determined the upper limit of their cultivation.
Most Xuan Sect disciples of demon origin.
Their comprehension, aptitude, and talent were all constrained by their bloodline.
Many disciples might never advance beyond Mysterious Immortal, unable to leap out of the River of Time.
Even if they achieved immortality, they remained shackled by lifespan, struggling to glimpse the true Dao.
But now, the appearance of the Mysterious Sun Pill lit a glimmer of hope they called "hope"!
So much so that the names Mysterious Sun Pill and Xuandan spread from mouth to mouth among the disciples.
Some disciples recalled the cringe-worthy scene of Xuan Du and the Three Xiaos turning into Lolis.
And so they still harbored some wariness toward the pills refined by this Junior Brother Xuandan.
But there were also quick-witted disciples who had already started taking action.
As they put it:
"Having body parts grow bigger is still better than turning into a Loli."
Xuandan looked at the sea of Fellow Disciples crowding his cave entrance.
He could barely contain the ecstasy surging inside him.
"No, no—I absolutely have to keep it together. Can't let a smile slip."
If he gave away the pills.
He couldn't even imagine how lavish the system's reward would be.
Scanning the crowd, Xuandan noticed that most of his Fellow Disciples were from the Jie Sect.
But that made sense—only Uncle Master Tongtian taught without discrimination.
The Ren Sect had only two disciples: Xuan Du and Xuandan.
Primordial Lord of Heaven would never accept a demon as a disciple.
Only the Demon Race valued bloodline rank so highly.
The clamor of the many Fellow Disciples was a bit chaotic.
All of them were begging for a Mysterious Sun Pill.
Xuandan raised a hand to silence everyone.
"Fellow Disciples, This Humble Daoist already understands your requests."
"It's just that this pill of mine does have side effects—Senior Brother Winged Immortal is a case in point."
"Moreover, refining these pills costs me a great deal of materials and mental effort..."
By this point, the sharper disciples had already begun to chime in.
"Rest assured, Junior Brother—a mere tenfold increase in size, I can handle it!"
"This Humble Daoist understands your difficulties, Junior Brother. Please accept this piece of Starfall Iron."
"Junior Brother expends enormous resources refining pills—how could we possibly take them for nothing?"
"..."
Xuandan watched with a smile as his fellow disciples offered up Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures.
His heart swelled with even greater delight, and he praised inwardly.
Truly, they catch on with a single word—no need to waste more breath.
He then took out the gourd containing the pills, beaming as he spoke.
"Fellow disciples, no need to rush—one at a time."
"This Humble Daoist happened to have some free time and refined quite a few Mysterious Sun Pills."
"Everyone, line up properly—there's enough for all."
With that, the Xuan Sect disciples formed a queue to exchange for Mysterious Sun Pills.
From a distance, it looked rather like a supermarket sale line scrambling for a bargain.
For an entire day, Xuandan handed out Mysterious Sun Pills without pause.
His face radiated the joy of a bountiful harvest.
"Senior Brother, here are your pills."
Only after the very last fellow disciple had taken his pills did a voice suddenly ring out in Xuandan's mind.
[Ding! Congratulations, host, for gifting Mysterious Sun Pills to others—receiving a random reward!] [Ding! Congratulations, host, for obtaining a critical strike reward: 200,000 Years of Cultivation, Low-grade Innate Spiritual Root Sky Cloud Grass, Low-grade Xiantian Spiritual Treasure Purple Cloud Sword...]
The generous critical strike reward left Xuandan grinning from ear to ear.
Most disciples prepared to return to their caves to take the pills in seclusion.
Some of the more impatient ones had already swallowed theirs.
In an instant, the scene before Xuandan's cave could only be described as a pandemonium of wild forms.
Ling Ya Xian, Qiu Shou Xian, and Jin Guang Xian simultaneously leaped out of the River of Time, attaining the Golden Immortal Dao Fruit.
Fortune and calamity go hand in hand—naturally, side effects clung to them as well.
Ling Ya Xian's true form was the Six-Tusked White Elephant, and his six tusks had enlarged tenfold, looking rather grotesque.
Qiu Shou Xian's true form was the Azure-Maned Lion, and his lion head had enlarged tenfold, leaving him with a massive, oversized head.
Jin Guang Xian's true form was the Golden-Maned Hou, and the sharp horn on his forehead had enlarged tenfold, jutting skyward like a pillar!
The three brothers exchanged glances, all wearing smiles.
Well worth it—no loss!
Such changes had little real impact on them.
Some disciples were less fortunate.
Take, for instance, a disciple who had attained the Dao as a wolf demon.
They say a wolf has a head of bronze, a tail of iron, and a waist of tofu.
His wolf waist had enlarged tenfold—wherever one looked, it was all weakness.
Fortunately, everyone on Kunlun Mountain was a fellow disciple, so it caused no trouble.
This scene happened to be witnessed by Chan Sect disciples leaving the Jade Void Palace after class.
A flicker of envy stirred in their hearts.
Especially when they saw the three immortals attain the Golden Immortal Dao Fruit.
But these pills had little effect on Chan Sect disciples.
So all they could do was envy inwardly.
The Loli Huanglong, however, brightened at the sight and immediately vanished.
She appeared before Xuandan, clasping her hands in a bow.
"Junior Brother, do you still have any of those Mysterious Sun Pills left?"
Xuandan looked at Huanglong, still in her Loli form, and raised an eyebrow slightly.
