“Fang Lin, do not be rude!” Meng Wuyou quickly scolded in a low voice. Gu Daofeng waved his hand, laughing, “No harm done.”

After a pause, Gu Daofeng looked at Fang Lin and shook his head, “Choose something else. Even if I allow you to become a top-grade disciple right now, it would not benefit you in any way.”

Fang Lin did not show any disappointment. He had only mentioned it casually and knew well that he couldn’t just directly become a top-grade disciple.

Even if Gu Daofeng truly agreed, it wouldn’t be a good thing for Fang Lin. Those top-grade disciples would surely be extremely displeased, followed by a string of troubles, which was enough to drive Fang Lin mad.

After pondering, Fang Lin said, “Head, I wish to receive a Mysterious Heavenly Stone Cauldron.”

Upon hearing this, some people still felt as if Fang Lin was giving himself airs.

The Mysterious Heavenly Stone Cauldron was carved from The Stone from Outer-Space. Its quantity was scarce, with only four in the entire Pill Sect outside of the Pill Forest Academy, even including the Pill Pavilion.

This was because there was a celestial giant rock that fell into a mountain near the Purple Mist Sect, enabling the Purple Mist Sect to possess some Mysterious Heavenly Stone Cauldrons. If it was in other sects, the quantity of Mysterious Heavenly Stone Cauldrons would be even less.

Even a top-grade disciple would have to pay a hefty price to have a Mysterious Heavenly Stone Cauldron, and whether they could get it was still a question.

“Fang Lin, you are too greedy. Just for a minor contribution, you want a

Mysterious Heavenly Stone Cauldron?” Zhao Dengming immediately stood

forward and said.

“Being so young, you should be more aware of your limitations,” Yu Zhen sneered.

Fang Lin glanced at them both, a trace of contempt forming at the corner of his lips, “Even though the head said that Elder Meng and I have merited great contributions, you two seem to belittle us. It seems you two are unsatisfied with the head.”

At these words, the faces of Zhao Dengming and Yu Zhen suddenly changed.

They glared maliciously at Fang Lin and quickly explained to Gu Daofeng,

“Head, we didn’t mean that, don’t listen to Fang Lin’s nonsense.”

Gu Daofeng waved his hand and said, “Enough. Since Fang Lin wishes to receive a Mysterious Heavenly Stone Cauldron, then give him one. We cannot let those who have greatly contributed to our Pill Sect feel upset.”

Upon hearing this, Fang Lin was overjoyed, repeatedly thanking Gu Daofeng.

“With the Mysterious Heavenly Stone Cauldron, I will be able to cultivate the Nine Cauldron Skypassing Spell to the first realm. In that case, I will practically be invincible at the Human Origin Realm,” Fang Lin secretly rejoiced in his heart.

The reason he asked for the Mysterious Heavenly Stone Cauldron was to cultivate the Nine Cauldron Skypassing Spell and quickly enhance his strength.

The main way to improve the Nine Cauldron Skypassing Spell was to devour the Pill Cauldron. Merely absorbing some of the Cauldron Qi from the Pill Cauldron wouldn’t enhance much of anything.

Only by devouring the Pill Cauldron would he quickly and effectively improve.

“The Mysterious Heavenly Stone Cauldron will be handed over to you by someone from the Pill Pavilion later. You may leave now,” said Gu Daofeng softly.

Fang Lin paid his respects before slowly exiting the grand hall.

“Elder Meng, what reward would you like?” Gu Daofeng again turned towards Meng Wuyou and asked.

Meng Wuyou shook his head and said, “I need no reward. I only hope that our Pill Sect can remain prosperous, and that some people don’t suppress the talents of the Pill Sect for their selfish desires.”

Many people found Meng Wuyou’s words somewhat irksome, especially Zhao Dengming and the others, who glanced at Meng Wuyou with darker expressions.

Yan Zhengfeng suddenly asked, “Meng Wuyou, be clear with your words. Just who is suppressing the talents of our Pill Sect?”

Meng Wuyou respectfully replied, “Elder Yan, some things, everyone knows.”

At his words, Yan Zhengfeng immediately understood. The elder’s piercing eyes now turned to Zhao Dengming and the other elders.

Zhao Dengming and the others felt a jolt of surprise, secretly swearing. At the same time, they grit their teeth at Meng Wuyou.

Even though Meng Wuyou hadn’t named names, anyone would know who he was referring to from his words.

Yan Zhengfeng was known for his stern demeanor, yet he valued the Pill Sect greatly, especially the talented members of the Sect, towards whom he showed immense care.

“I can’t believe there are such fools in our Pill Sect. Fang Lin is a rare talent, yet there are people who want to suppress him. These people are no more than pests to the Sect!” Yan Zhengfeng’s icy voice carried immense anger.

Zhao Dengming and the others stood there with difficult expressions, daring not even to breathe. Although Yan Zhengfeng hadn’t named names either,

Zhao Dengming and the others knew that Yan Zhengfeng was accusing them.

Being accused by others, Zhao Dengming and the others would dare to retort, but not when accused by Yan Zhengfeng.

Yan Zhengfeng had been in the Pill Sect for a very long time. Even the head Gu Daofeng wouldn’t conflict with Yan Zhengfeng and would willingly concede on several matters.

Though Yan Zhengfeng looked like a stubborn old man, angering him would

definitely shake up the entire Purple Mist Sect.

Seeing the tense atmosphere in the grand hall, Gu Daofeng laughed and said, “Elder Yan, don’t lose your temper, our Pill Sect has always placed importance on talented individuals. Fang Lin might have been suppressed before, but consider it as a part of his training. Only through trials would his talent be recognized. ”

Yan Zhengfeng snorted and didn’t say anything further.

Gu Daofeng looked towards the people below and loudly announced, “What happened today is a secret within our Pill Sect and must not be leaked. The modifications to the Pill Formulas in the D Building should be carried out covertly.”

“Yes!”

The Elders responded in unison.

The Mysterious Heavenly Stone Cauldron promised by Gu Daofeng was quickly delivered to Fang Lin by someone from the Pill Pavilion.

The person who delivered the cauldron was the white-robed elder who had previously tried to intercept Fang Lin. When he handed over the Mysterious Heavenly Stone Cauldron to Fang Lin, his heart ached immensely.

However, as Gu Daofeng had already issued the command, the white-robed elder didn’t have a choice. Although he was an elder of the Pill Pavilion, he could only accept it with displeasure.

Fang Lin’s beaming expression made the white-robed elder feel like punching him in the face. After handing the cauldron to Fang Lin, he hastily departed, not wanting to tolerate Fang Lin’s irritating demeanor any longer.

Having obtained the Mysterious Heavenly Stone Cauldron, Fang Lin returned directly to his residence, locked the courtyard door, and immediately began to isolate himself for cultivation.

Fang Lin’s current realm was the Sixth Layer of the Human Origin Realm, which was of average rank in the Pill Sect, but when placed in the Martial Sect, it wasn’t regarded as anything special.

Moreover, the Pill Sect was far from tranquil, and there were many who wanted to deal with Fang Lin. Without enough realm strength, even self-protection would be a problem.

Now, with the Mysterious Heavenly Stone Cauldron, Fang Lin could make a significant advancement in his realm. According to Fang Lin’s assessment, with the assistance of the Mysterious Heavenly Stone Cauldron and the Pills, he should be able to break through to the Ninth Layer of the Human Origin Realm, or even possibly reach the Tenth Layer.

However, such rapid improvement also had significant downsides, and Fang Lin would need the Pills to gradually resolve these issues.

Placing the Mysterious Heavenly Stone Cauldron in front of him, Fang Lin looked at the pitch -black Pill Cauldron, a fiery anticipation in his heart.

“Finally, I can eat it,” Fang Lin thought to himself..
