At this mont, the Wonderous Palace was in utter chaos.
Under normal circumstances, each peak would be guarded by an Elder. But at a ti like this, who would stay to guard? One misstep, and the Wonderous Palace could be annihilated.
The alchemists from Pill Refining Peak had no heart for alchemy. All of them floated into the air, their gazes fixed on the direction of Soul Devouring Peak. The Elders mustered their courage and cautiously moved a bit closer. The rest were behind them, breaking out in a cold sweat.
"The Palace Master and the others won’t be defeated, will they?" soone murmured secretly, even contemplating escape.
Over the years, the number of powerhouses in the Righteous Sun Sect had grown. The pressure on them was also imnse.
anwhile, Wen Zhixing took advantage of the distraction and, under the cover of darkness, stealthily entered an alchemy room.
The alchemy room was empty. Only so spiritual dicines and finished elixirs were laid out. Wen Zhixing didn’t even glance at them. He simply swept his hand and gathered all the items into his Storage Belt.
This is no good. The space in the Storage Belt is too small, rely one cubic ter. There’s not much room for anything significant. I need to upgrade it first.
The next mont, he identified another problem. The small storage space hadn’t been an issue before, but now it was unacceptable. Fortunately, Wen Zhixing had been saving his Fortune Points, and he had enough for an upgrade.
"Upgrade the Storage Belt."
[You have spent 10 Fortune Points to start upgrading the Storage Belt (Gray Quality).]
[Upgrade complete. You have obtained a Spiritual Instrunt: Universe Belt!]
[Universe Belt: White Quality. It possesses a storage space of twenty cubic ters and is capable of storing living beings for a short period. It also has a camouflage feature, making it indistinguishable from a normal belt on usual days.]
[The owner cannot enter the Universe Belt.]
[Spend one hundred Fortune Points to upgrade to Blue Quality.]
[Current Fortune Points: 42.]
Being able to briefly store living beings, now that’s not bad. Wen Zhixing nodded in satisfaction, then quickly resud his rapid harvesting.
anwhile, his mouth wasn’t idle either. He grabbed a handful of elixirs and poured them directly into his mouth, indifferent to their uses, whether they were good or bad, or even if they were poison. Before he could even taste them, the Purgatory Furnace within his body activated, rapidly lting and devouring them, transforming them into the purest Spiritual Qi.
The consumption of these finished elixirs was exceptionally swift. Wen Zhixing’s complexion suddenly reddened; he could feel the Spiritual Qi inside his body rapidly increasing. The sensation was akin to floating towards ecstasy.
Soon, one alchemy room was completely scoured clean by him. Before leaving, Wen Zhixing glanced at the alchemy furnace, and his eyes suddenly lit up.
[Alchemy Furnace (Spiritual Instrunt)]: Gray Quality. It is an alchemy furnace forged from over a hundred kinds of special ores. With unstable fla control, it usually produces elixirs of average quality, and the probability of producing high-level elixirs is extrely low.
This thing is also a Spiritual Instrunt. Burn it. Wen Zhixing imdiately released a Purgatory Fire, lting it down. His Purgatory Furnace had already devoured a number of Spiritual Instrunts, and the might of its flas had grown considerably. Despite the size of this alchemy furnace, it was, after all, rely Gray Quality. In no ti at all, it lted completely, and Wen Zhixing swallowed it in one gulp.
Next one. Wen Zhixing contentedly patted his chest—no, wrong place—he patted his lower abdon as if he had just burped satisfyingly. After that, he stealthily moved into the next alchemy room.
With the experience from the first room, his speed was even faster this ti. In just a short while, he scavenged everything clean from the inside. Alchemy furnaces were lted. Elixirs and spiritual herbs were either eaten or stored away.
Quickly, the ti it took to drink a cup of tea passed. The alchemy rooms here had been almost fully looted by Wen Zhixing.
[Your Spiritual Qi cultivation has increased. Current realm: Qi Movent Realm Level Five.]
The Purgatory Furnace blazed fiercely, lting everything, and his Spiritual Qi cultivation also rapidly rose. And inside his Universe Belt, the harvest of uneaten elixirs and spiritual herbs grew even more plentiful.
BOOM!
Just then, over in the direction of Soul Devouring Peak, the intense battle continued to rage. Si Nanyan had finally erged from seclusion, soaring up from the secret chamber.
"Hahaha, Si Nanyan, you’ve finally co out." Wang Shiyang and Xu An were naturally overjoyed, unleashing a relentless barrage of attacks like a violent storm.
"Damn it!" Si Nanyan’s face was pale, her aura sowhat feeble. It seed as if she had just failed a breakthrough, and her condition was extrely poor.
"Palace Master!" Everyone from the Wonderous Palace was captivated by this scene, fearing that Si Nanyan might be in trouble.
Only Wen Zhixing glanced once before slipping away. He was well aware of the prowess of the demonesses of the Wonderous Palace. They are currently plotting sothing nefarious. Those fools from the Righteous Sun Sect still think they control everything. If it weren’t for the Righteous Sun Sect’s slightly greater raw power, they would have long since been outmaneuvered by these calculating demonesses.
Not my business. Wen Zhixing glanced at the group of concerned faces above and quickly walked in another direction.
Within Pill Refining Peak, there was also a dedicated pill room where many more elixirs were stored. He couldn’t let this opportunity pass.
...
Before long, Wen Zhixing arrived inside the pill room. This pill room was very similar to the Array Hall; only, instead of array thods, rows of elixirs were lined up.
Just as Wen Zhixing was about to enter, he sensed sothing was amiss.
Is this a prohibition? His expression stiffened slightly. He had never been to this pill room and didn’t expect a prohibition to exist here.
Miscalculation. Wen Zhixing frowned. He didn’t know how to break any prohibition. If he tried to force his way through, he would surely be discovered.
Just as Wen Zhixing was growing disappointed, he suddenly heard a faint rustling noise from within the pill room.
Soone? Wen Zhixing was taken aback. That’s not right. At this ti, everyone in the Wonderous Palace is preoccupied with the major battle. How could there possibly be soone in the pill room?
A fellow thief? The thought suddenly flashed through Wen Zhixing’s mind. It must be! Who else but a fellow thief would be in the pill room at a ti like this!
He turned his head and saw that in a nearby corner, a breach had actually appeared in the prohibition, large enough for a person to enter.
Wen Zhixing’s mind raced, and he slipped directly through the breach. He imdiately called out in a low voice, "Who’s there! Co out!"
The entire pill room suddenly fell silent. The figure inside also froze abruptly, clearly not expecting anyone else to co to the pill room at such a ti.
"Won’t you co out?" Wen Zhixing humd softly again. In fact, he humd very softly, afraid of being overheard by those outside. Fortunately, the continuous booming noises of the battle outside ensured that no one noticed the sounds from within the pill room.
"It’s , it’s ." The next mont, a rather disheveled figure erged.
Wen Zhixing was stunned. Isn’t this Shen Lingjun, the one who concocted the Nirvana Elixir for ?
"Senior Sister Ning?" Upon seeing Wen Zhixing, Shen Lingjun was also startled. She also hadn’t expected ’Ning Shan’ to appear here.
Wen Zhixing didn’t imdiately acknowledge Shen Lingjun but first scanned the surroundings. He instantly understood the situation. The elixirs within this pill room, originally protected by prohibitions, were now all exposed, and many had disappeared. Seeing this, his expression darkened abruptly.
Wen Zhixing’s thin lips parted, his voice ringing out as clear as a bell, "Shen Lingjun, at a ti like this, you dare to steal the sect’s elixirs! You’ve got so nerve!"
"Senior Sister, I—I was wrong!" Shen Lingjun’s face paled drastically, no longer caring why Ning Shan had appeared here.
"Humph, hand over the elixirs you just took!" Wen Zhixing’s expression turned stern, and he called out again, "I can get the sect to be lenient!"
