"Damn, this pill is too potent! Even someone like me with my Golden Core Stage strength would probably explode and die if I swallowed just one." Zhang Hao, who had rushed over, couldn't help but swallow hard as he looked at the pill in the room.

No one can resist something this good, and he was no exception.

But Zhang Hao forcibly suppressed his desire and did not step forward. Instead, he followed Shen Ge and the others and began to collect the dissipated fragrance of the pills.

After all, that level of pill was simply beyond his reach. Even if he were lucky enough to get his hands on it, unless he swallowed it immediately, he would definitely be hunted down to death later.

The arriving Shangguan Ouyang and the others all looked at the pill inside with longing in their eyes.

"Senior brother, we must get our hands on this pill!"

Shangguan Ouyang nodded and said, "Fellow junior brothers and sisters, activate the formation!"

The seven Golden Core experts surrounded the group, and then Shangguan Ouyang took out an array plate. With a flash of red light, several beams of red light connected the seven people together, and a large array was formed in an instant.

Shen Ge noticed Shangguan Ouyang and the others as soon as they arrived. Seeing that the great formation was now complete, they all stopped what they were doing and stepped back a distance to observe.

Those powerful figures who hadn't yet joined the battle all looked indignant when they saw Shangguan Ouyang and his group activate an array to cover the pills. However, since Spirit Moon Sect was the largest and strongest force in the area, they dared not speak out against it.

Although everyone present could kill the seven members of the Spirit Moon Sect if they joined forces, no one dared to even consider it. After all, if they did, there would likely be endless pursuit, and even Nascent Soul Realm stage experts might get involved.

To be honest, although this pill is a good thing, it would definitely not be worth dying because of it.

Within the formation, the fighting gradually ceased. Qianyuan, his face ashen, glared at Shangguan Ouyang and his group, then at the formation surrounding them, and roared, "Shangguan Ouyang, what do you mean by this! Do you really think we're afraid of your Spirit Moon Sect?!"

"Then you can try," Shangguan Ouyang said calmly, seemingly unafraid of any resistance from the others.

Having said that, Shangguan Ouyang made way for them, saying, "If we leave this formation now, we'll be safe. But if you stay, don't blame us for being ruthless."

Those inside remained silent for a moment, their faces grim. But after a while, several of the most seriously injured were the first to walk out of the formation. After all, they knew they couldn't get the pills, so there was no need to offend the Spirit Moon Sect. They still had to survive in this area, and there was no need to put themselves on the blacklist.

With someone taking the lead, the faces of the others who were not willing to give up became even uglier, their expressions dark and their bodies radiating murderous intent.

"Looks like there's no chance." Zhang Hao shook his head, turned around and left. After all, lingering here knowing he couldn't have it would only cause him more trouble.

"Hey, Shen Ge, what do we do now? The Spirit Moon Sect people have started clearing the area." Li Xue stared blankly at the divine pill, asking without turning her head.

"What can we do?" Shen Ge said helplessly, "We'll just have to keep watching. If it doesn't work, we'll find another place to look for good stuff."

Lü Yang nodded and said, "That's all we can do. After all, the three of us can't beat them, so let's not cause any more trouble."

"Let's go, let's find another place to continue breaking the formation."

Li Xue glanced at the divine pill, shook her head, and turned to leave with Shen Ge and the other person.

In the center of the formation, Shangguan Ouyang looked at them calmly and said, "Have you thought this through? I'll fill in the hole then."

"Hmph!" Qianyuan snorted coldly, stepping forward as he said, "Spirit Moon Sect, you really have a lot of arrogance! Do you really think the South Sea is your own home? I'll see what you can do to me today!"

Shangguan Ouyang frowned as he watched Qianyuan walk past him and out of the formation. "Why don't you come in? I suddenly don't want to let you leave."

Those who were originally with Qianyuan Qianyuan looking at him strangely. This old man, he's really good at talking big, and he's incredibly fast at running around.

Qianyuan acted as if he hadn't heard Shangguan Ouyang's words and left the Alchemy Chamber directly, his skin was truly thick.

"And you, have you made up your minds?" Shangguan Ouyang turned to the remaining people and asked with a smile.

"Hmph, don't be so smug!" one of them snorted and walked away.

Seeing this, the others also left the formation and didn't linger. They didn't want to do something that would only bring trouble and no advantage.

After everyone had left, Shangguan Ouyang turned to them and said, "Fellow Daoists, please look for other treasures."

Those people, with cold faces, glanced at the pill a few times before turning around and leaving without lingering. Otherwise, they really might have started a fight.

"Junior Brother Wang, you can have those surrounding formations. We can do without everything else, but we must get our hands on this pill. After this, perhaps our Spirit Moon Sect will produce a Spirit Severing Realm expert."

"Senior brother, don't worry, this formation is nothing to worry about. Give me some time, and I guarantee I can retrieve the pill without any damage."

Beside some ruins outside, Shen Ge and the other two remained silent, gazing in the direction of the Alchemy Chamber.

Li Xue glanced at Shen Ge and transmitted her voice, "Are you really giving up like this? If that pill falls into the hands of the Spirit Moon Sect, you might never have the chance to return to the Spirit Moon Sect in this lifetime."

"Spirit Severing Realm expert, with a lifespan of eight thousand years, can already be considered a god."

Shen Ge remained expressionless, a cold glint flashing in his eyes, and replied, "Hmph, give up? Impossible! Wait, I'll prepare. I won't kill them, but the item absolutely cannot fall into their hands!"

"You'd better have a plan, otherwise once the formation is broken and the items are taken, there won't be any way to recover them."

Sensing the fleeting killing intent, Lü Yang sighed inwardly. He knew that Brother Shen wouldn't let the item fall into the hands of the Spirit Moon Sect. It seemed that a tough battle was ahead, and he might even be wanted by the Spirit Moon Sect from now on.

However, Lü Yang had no intention of backing down. After all, they had a good relationship, and he would help if he could.

"I think I just saw Zhang Hao. Maybe we can try to win him over," Li Xue transmitted her voice.

"Sister Xue, you two shouldn't get involved in this for now. I'll handle it alone. Otherwise, if I drag you down with me, you won't even have time to cultivate anymore," Shen Ge said softly.

Li Xue and Lü Yang exchanged a glance and remained silent for a long time. Li Xue then said with a serious expression, "What do you mean? You plan to face all seven of them alone? You're only at the Early Golden Core Stage. Do you really think they won't kill you because of your master?"
