History's Number 1 Founder

"Other things? What other things?" Duan Muhong was curious as he looked at Yan Wuwei. He saw that Yan Wuwei was a little lost too.

Tang Jun had already returned among the Celestial Sect of Wonders’ disciples. Yang Tie, Tan Yunqing, Yan Wuwei were all looking at him.

"During the pill cultivation contests during the Antiquity Age, let’s not talk about the interaction, if there are competitions, there are gains to be made, coming from wagers." Tang Jun said in a deep voice, "This profit is decided by both parties. It could be a certain type of rare spiritual medicine, or herb, or maybe a pill formula."

"There’s even instances that when one party lost to the other, the loser becomes the errand boy of the winner."

Xiao Yan looked at the Qing Ning Holy Man and he seemed like he wanted to laugh.

The Qing Ning Holy Man remained calm and nodded his head, "Although there’s only 3 of us, I believe that the level of this competition won’t be low. I think that it’s fine if we follow the practice of the Antiquity Age?"

The junior disciples around were all shocked and they did not expect that the initial competition between Tang Jun and Gu Liancheng would eventually develop to a competition between the top pill cultivators in each of the three parties around.

Was this pill cultivation contest small? Yes, it was. There were only 3 people and could even barely be considered as a "contest".

Was this pill cultivation contest huge? Yes, it was. Even by the standards of the Antiquity Age, those who were participating were all the best, and would only participate in a contest organized by the human emperor and no one else.

Regardless whether it was the Qing Ning Holy Man or Gu Yuankai, they were the most cultivated ones in the Divine Lands right now in the art of pill cultivation. And right now, Xiao Yan was in the mix too.

Although it was only the three of them, this competition was considered one of the most intense one in the history of the Divine Lands.

Xiao Yan laughed silently, "Since this is the case, Qing Ning Holy Man, it’s only right if you’re the first to stake your wager."

The Qing Ning Holy Man said in a calm tone of voice, "This is only natural. I am going to stake the pill formula of the Ten Sages Aurous Core."

The entire Xuanling Pavilion went silent. Everyone who was around, even if they were not into pill cultivation, had heard of the Ten Sages Aurous Core.

They belonged to the Great Void Sect and was the most reputable spiritual pill in the Divine Lands.

Even the Great Void Sect possessed them in very small quantities. Cultivating it was even more difficult. In the Great Void Sect, only the Qing Ning Holy Man could cultivate this pill.

The materials that had to be expended in order to cultivate this pill were more than a hundred. And the main ingredients for the Ten Sages Aurous Core were the blood essence of Undying Demon Soul Grand Sages from different tribes.

The higher the cultivation of the Demon Grand Sage, the more effective the medicine. These pills replenished one’s vital energy and could treat different kinds of injuries. But the most eye-catching use of it was that it allowed one to break through his current cultivation with a certain probability.

This effect was similar to the Celestial Spirit Snow Dew that the Parasol Tree Fairy possessed.

The Celestial Spirit Snow Dew that the Parasol Tree Fairy had didn’t need any other ingredients to be cultivated, as it possessed such an effect on its own. But it could only be bred naturally and one could not initiate it. After one round of breeding, it would take a long time before the next round.

At the same time, the Celestial Spirit Snow Dew of the Parasol Tree Fairy was more effective to demons. Whereas the Ten Sages Aurous Core were more effective for Immortal Soul Stage cultivators.

For Zhu Hongwu to be able to reach the Immortal Soul Second Level and be on the verge of reaching the Immortal Soul Third Level within 2000 years, besides his own accumulation, he also relied on a piece of the Ten Sages Aurous Core to help him.

This was a secret arrangement between the Great Void Sect and Great Zhou Empire, which very few people knew about.

And right now, the Qing Ning Holy Man did not use the Ten Sages Aurous Core as a stake. He used the pill formula, which was even more valuable. It was probably the most valuable pill formula in the entire Divine Lands.

Even Gu Yuankai was shocked even though he knew the intentions of the Qing Ning Holy Man.

"It’s enough that he used the Ten Sages Aurous Core as a stake, but he actually turned to the entire pill formula?" Gu Yuankai was shocked as he looked at the Qing Ning Holy Man. The Qing Ning Holy Man smiled as he shook his head, "For such a contest, how can I not use a worthy treasure as a stake?"

The Qing Ning Holy Man looked at Xiao Yan, "I wonder what you think, Comrade Xiao?"

Xiao Yan was probably the calmest person among everyone present. He looked at the Qing Ning Holy Man and laughed, "Do you have to play it so big?"

"Forgive me for being rude, but even as the top pill cultivator in the Great Void Sect, the pill formula doesn’t belong to you, does it? To use it as a stake, I don’t think it’s a decision that only you can make."

"For such an event, it’s very rare. Just like you said, there must be a worthy treasure as a stake." A streak of white cloud appeared on the second level of the Xuanling Pavilion. As the clouds dispersed, one black and one white streak of gas intersected. A person walked out from it. He was the leader of the Great Void Sect, Yan Nanlai.

Beside him, there was someone else. He was the Supreme Elder of the Great Void Sect just like the Qing Ning Holy Man, Wu Mengqi.

Once Wu Mengqi revealed himself, he furrowed his brows and turned to look at Xiao Yan. He looked doubtful.

Xiao Yan’s expression did not change and he dealt with the situation calmly. The void space beside him broke open. As purple clouds rumbled, a tall figure walked out. It was Lin Feng’s Avatar of Ares.

Behind Lin Feng, Zhu Yi, Yang Qing and Li Yuanfang walked out too.

At the same time, a radiance beside Gu Yuankai revolved. The leader of the Gu Family, Gu Jun, and another member of the Gu Family, Gu Cheng, walked into the second level of the Xuanling Pavilion.

Not only Xiao Yan, the Qing Ning Holy Man and Gu Yuankai, the rest of the leaders of the three parties were all present here now.

Lin Feng looked calmly at Yan Nanlai and the Qing Ning Holy Man, "The stake in question is indeed very valuable. But I wonder, what do the both of you want from my sect?"

The Qing Ning Holy Man replied, "I have been very enthusiastic about the art of pill cultivation. As for many of the pill formulas in the Divine Lands, I do have some understanding on all of them. The only one that I am unsure of is only the Trayastrimsa Elixir of Creation from your sect."

"If you are willing, I hope to use the pill formula of the Ten Sages Aurous Core to exchange for the pill formula of the Trayastrimsa Elixir of Creation."

Lin Feng and Xiao Yan’s lips curved and they revealed a slight smile on their faces.

The others who were around were all confused and shocked. Even the disciples of the Celestial Sect of Wonders had only heard of the Trayastrimsa Elixir of Creation. They had not encountered it before. As for the junior disciples of the Great Void Sect, they were even unaware of its existence, and were perplexed why the Qing Ning Holy Man was willing to exchange the valuable pill formula of the Ten Sages Aurous Core for this unknown pill."

Whereas Gu Jun, Gu Cheng and Gu Yuankai did not look surprised. The three Gu Family elders looked at one another and they knew what each other were thinking.

Gu Jun stared at Gu Yuankai, who passed a message, "It may be our chance."

"The pill formulas for the Longevity Pill and Treasure Lotus Pill can’t be given out." Gu Jun glanced at Yan Nanlai and Lin Feng, and his gaze looked a little forlorn.

Gu Yuankai was a little stunned. The Longevity Pill and Treasure Lotus Pill were the most outstanding pill formulas that the Gu Family possessed, and they were comparable to that of the Ten Sages Aurous Core.

"Master, are you not confident in me?" Gu Yuankai asked. Gu Jun remained clam, "We still have to see if they are willing."

Gu Yuankai was silent for awhile before nodding his head and said, "My stake won’t be a pill formula, but I won’t let you down."

"I will use the Barren Spirit Spring as a stake, which should be presentable."

Gu Liancheng and the Gu Family disciples were all shocked. The Barren Spirit Spring was a treasure of the Gu Family, and there were three openings to the spring. The openings of the spring were not fixed. They were like cracks in void space, where water will flow out.

After a pill was cultivated, immersing it in the spring could increase its effect and the magnitude of increase was based on the conditions.

To really compare, the openings of the spring were actually not less valuable than that of the pill formulas of the Ancient Longevity Pill and Treasure Lotus Pill.

But Gu Jun did not have any objections even after he heard Gu Yuankai’s words.

"The Barren Spirit Spring is very miraculous and is a rare treasure. To use it as a stake, Ling Jue Holy Man, you are too kind." Lin Feng and Yan Nanlai nodded their heads.

Lin Feng looked at Yan Nanlai and thought, "The Great Void Sect can’t be so slow. It’s likely that after the Anti-Celestial Sect War, through Xiao Yan forming the Immortal Soul, they must have noticed and verified through Gu Yuankai?"

Strictly speaking, the value of the Trayastrimsa Elixir of Creation was not inferior to that of the Ten Sages Aurous Core. In terms of pure medicinal effect, it’s even slightly superior.

Although through Lin Feng’s deductions, the Ten Sages Aurous Core was not more likely to increase the chances of breaking through to the next level from the Immortal Soul Stage onwards as compared to the Trayastrimsa Elixir of Creation, it was still useful. Furthermore, a lower probability was also a normal situation.

And from a certain perspective, the gathering of the original materials of the Ten Sages Aurous Core was more difficult than that of the Trayastrimsa Elixir of Creation. Both pills had their own strengths and weaknesses.

The Great Void Sect used the pill formula of the Ten Sages Aurous Core as a stake, but the Qing Ning Holy Man also showed rather great confidence and belief in winning.

But it’s a pity...

"This is indeed a rare event. Since Master Yan and Qing Ning Holy Man are interested, I guess that the Celestial Sect of Wonders will also go along." Lin Feng said, "I shall use the Trayastrimsa Elixir of Creation as a stake."

As Lin Feng said, his words suddenly changed, "However, the stake of your sect has to change."
