Sacred Pill Sect Pledges Its Allegiance!

Meanwhile.

Inside the Sect Master Hall of the Sacred Pill Sect.

Sect Master Ning Tian and the sect's ancestor had already used a secret sect technique to summon all Dou Zong elders and sixth-grade alchemists to the hall.

Such a grand gathering had been arranged solely because the sect master's daughter, Ning Rongrong, had sent word from the Ye Emperor Hall.

"To Father: The tide of fate is now clear. The Sacred Pill Sect can no longer resist it; it can only follow the current and soar to great heights!"

Ning Rongrong, disciple of the Pill Hall of the Ye Emperor Hall.

Those two short sentences shocked them all.

So everything that Ye Emperor Hall elder had said was true.

Countless powerful experts!

The Sacred Pill Sect beneath their feet!

The Sacred Pill Sect was only fit to become disciples.

Sect Master Ning Tian sat silently in the seat of honor, while the elders below also remained speechless.

The atmosphere was heavy.

So he was the first to speak.

"What do you elders think? Speak freely."

"Grand Elder, you speak first."

He looked at the Grand Elder before him.

"Sect Master... this old man... is not good with words."

The Grand Elder did not know what to say.

Was he supposed to come right out and say, Sect Master, step down—we should all go seek refuge with the Ye Emperor Hall?

"Sect Master, Rongrong's message has already made things clear. I also believe we should follow the current."

That was the dominance of an imperial sect.

Those who followed it prospered; those who defied it perished.

The Second Elder spoke up, quickly gaining the approval of many elders.

"We ask the Sect Master and Ancestor to make a decision."

All the elders spoke together to the two figures seated above.

Even if they discussed it, they would not come up with anything useful.

They might as well go with the flow.

That day, the Ye Emperor Hall had sent only a single Law Enforcement Elder, yet he had overwhelmed their entire Sacred Pill Sect.

What could they possibly use to fight them?

Besides.

Even the Sect Master's daughter had agreed. Rongrong must have witnessed the Ye Emperor Hall's strength after going there.

That was why she had sent those two sentences.

"Very well, this Sect Master has decided!"

"My Sacred Pill Sect shall submit to the Ye Emperor Hall and become its affiliated force."

"All fourth-grade alchemists shall accompany this Sect Master to the main sect."

Sect Master Ning Tian made the final decision.

The message Rongrong had sent could not be wrong.

Submission was their only choice.

"Follow the current and soar to great heights!"

Ning Tian murmured.

Perhaps this was a tremendous opportunity for the Sacred Pill Sect!

When he looked back years later, he would only feel that this had been the wisest decision of his life. Of course, that was a story for later.

It was simply that Rongrong's message said the main sect, the Ye Emperor Hall, was actually located within the Jia Ma Empire!

Could it be a reclusive imperial sect!

Was a reclusive imperial sect about to emerge into the world!

Two and a half days later.

News that the Sacred Pill Sect had joined the Ye Emperor Hall spread throughout the Northwest Continent.

The entire region erupted in uproar!

Inside a private room of a brothel somewhere in the Black Corner Region.

"Brother, is this real? Is the news reliable?"

"Nonsense. My uncle's youngest son sweeps floors at the Sacred Pill Sect. He said it himself—how could it be fake?"

As the news within the brothel gradually spread.

Before long, it had already swept across the entire Northwest Continent.

Now everyone knew this earth-shattering news.

The Sacred Pill Sect had joined the Ye Emperor Hall!

Meanwhile, elsewhere.

Inside the Emperor Hall of the Ye Emperor Hall.

Ye Changge was just about to begin a day of "cultivation"!

After all, he was already a Dou Saint. He could not keep slacking off!

He was the sect master of an imperial sect!

Even if he could not lead by example, he at least had to take action.

Those imperial clans and the prodigies of the Central Continent were probably already Dou Zongs at his age. The more monstrous ones were likely Dou Venerables already.

Unlike him, who was merely a six-star Dou Saint...

Meanwhile.

At the foot of Ye Emperor Hall Mountain.

Ning Rongrong was waiting for someone.

She kept looking into the distance.

"They're here!"

A massive flying ship came into view in the distance, stopping at the foot of Ye Emperor Hall Mountain.

Ning Rongrong had already communicated with them: flying was prohibited around the Ye Emperor Hall.

If she had not informed them in advance.

The Sacred Pill Sect's flying ship would probably have been smashed apart with a single palm strike by one of the sect's powerful experts...

That would have been a case of friendly fire.

These were all talented people who refined pills for the sect.

The Sacred Pill Sect's alchemists stepped down from the flying ship, led by Sect Master Ning Tian.

He was a high-grade seventh-grade alchemist and had come to the main sect as well. With the ancestor remaining behind, the Sacred Pill Sect would be sufficiently guarded.

He also wanted to witness the splendor of the main sect and see whether it was truly as powerful as Rongrong had described.

The moment everyone disembarked, they felt refreshed.

"Gasp!"

"The spiritual energy here is actually this dense!!"

"I never expected the Jia Ma Empire to have such a treasured land. As expected of the place where the main sect is stationed—its spiritual energy is several times denser than that of our Sacred Pill Sect!"

"If I could refine pills here, I'd be thirty percent more confident in successfully forming them!"

A Sacred Pill Sect alchemist said in shock. He was a fifth-grade alchemist. If his odds of successful pill formation increased by thirty percent every time, his alchemist rank would rise rapidly.

"If only the seniors of the Ye Emperor Hall had come to our Sacred Pill Sect sooner..."

Quite a few alchemists had come from the Sacred Pill Sect. Every alchemist of the fourth grade and above had arrived.

There were thirty fourth-grade alchemists, twenty fifth-grade alchemists, fifteen sixth-grade alchemists, and two seventh-grade alchemists—the Sect Master and the Grand Elder.

This was the foundation of their Sacred Pill Sect.

One had to know that the path of alchemy was far from simple.

It was closely tied to one's cultivation realm, because refining pills of a corresponding grade required sufficient Dou Qi cultivation to support it. In other words, one's Dou Qi realm had to at least match one's alchemist grade.

The stronger one was, the higher the alchemist grade one could attain.

And that still depended on whether one possessed the talent for alchemy.

Without talent, one might never become even a first-grade alchemist until death, only hovering between first-grade and unranked.

It could be said that one had to cultivate both alchemy and Dou Qi.

What remained in the Sacred Pill Sect now were the various elders, disciples, and many powerful experts.

When they saw the Sacred Pill Sect members emerge from the flying ship.

And saw the Sect Master walking at the front.

"Father!"

Ning Rongrong called out from not far away.

"Rongrong."

Ning Tian saw his daughter in the distance.

He hurried over at once.

The Sacred Pill Sect's alchemists also followed closely behind Sect Master Ning Tian in a mighty procession.

"Senior, these are the alchemists of our Sacred Pill Sect."

"By the Sect Master's order, we have come to report to the sect."

Ning Rongrong turned and spoke to the guard beside her.

"Mhm, we were already informed from above."

"You can go straight up the mountain."

Lord Ye Cheng had already told him that the Sacred Pill Sect's alchemists would arrive today.

They were to head directly up the mountain.
