An hour after Xu Qing left, the seven to eight followers in the temple had already gathered their thoughts. All of them put on excited expressions and walked out of the temple.
The mont they appeared outside, they attracted the attention of the people who were habitually waiting outside.
"Master Pill Nine has made an announcent!"
The burly neighbor stepped forward and stood at the front. His voice was like a large bell that spread in all directions.
"In ten days, Master will release a pioneering great alchemy pill!"
"This pill is vastly different from the traditional curse-resolving pills. This will be a pill that has never been seen in the entire Moon Rebel Hall in countless years!"
"The effect is astonishing enough to overturn everything!"
As his voice rang out, the expressions of the surrounding statues changed as they listened attentively.
Seeing this, the burly neighbor took a deep breath and his eyes revealed anticipation. His voice was like heavenly lightning as it rang out again.
"I won't say much. I can only tell everyone that the na of this pill isn't to resolve just the pain but to dispel the curses!"
"Curse-breaking pill!"
As soon as these words were spoken, all the statues outside the temple were visibly shaken. All of them felt great waves in their hearts and disbelief appeared on their faces.
Soone even imdiately spoke up.
"Curse-breaking pill? Breaking the curse?"
"How is this possible!"
"This is the Crimson Goddess' curse. Who dares to say that it can be broken?"
An uproar instantly broke out. There were clearly only dozens of statues outside, but such shocking news caused them to make sounds like hundreds of people.
Seeing this, the burly neighbor took a deep breath and calmly spoke.
"In ten days, Master will return and release it for the first ti here. Everyone, wait quietly for ten days and let us witness this wonder together!"
With that, he turned and headed straight for the distance. The other followers also spread out. According to their previous communication, they were going to do their best to spread this matter throughout the entire Moon Rebel Hall in these ten days.
They also understood that there was actually no need to push this matter. As long as they spread the news slightly, it would definitely cause an uproar everywhere.
After all, Master Pill Nine's na was already quite famous in the Moon Rebel Hall and attracted a lot of attention. Hence, his subversive words would definitely cause a huge wave.
One could imagine that in the next ten days, doubts would erupt like never before.
As they spread out, the statues outside the temple also scattered and spread this news.
The aning of the words 'curse-breaking pill' was too great.
The truth was indeed as the followers had expected. In fact, it was even more intense. On the fourth day after this matter spread, a storm erupted in the entire Moon Rebel Hall.
Everyone who heard about it was shocked. What followed was endless doubt.
"Only a fool would believe such nonsense!"
"There's actually soone who uttered that the curse can be broken. This is nonsense!"
"That's the god's curse. Could it be that this Master Pill Nine is a god?!"
"But… what if? What if it can really be broken, even if it's just a little?"
Amidst the countless doubts, the words 'what if' were mixed in, causing everyone to hesitate. Hope was the fire in everyone's hearts.
Most of the people who lived in the Moon Worship Region had their flas extinguished. Perhaps those who joined the Moon Rebel Hall were people who were unwilling to accept their fate.
Hence, this fire fluctuated at this mont.
This, however, did not eliminate the doubts, because the more one hoped, the more one feared disappointnt, and it was natural to question. This was true for ordinary mbers of the Moon Rebel Hall, and even more so for those who excelled in alchemy and the study of curses.
"Cultivators like us hate those who like to show off the most. This Fellow Daoist Pill Nine's words are too irresponsible!"
"That gives people hope. If they are ultimately disappointed, this person's reputation will plumt!"
"Curse-breaking pill, curse-breaking pill… It's easier said than done. Since ancient tis, no one has been able to do it unless he's a god or a divine son!"
Countless words turned into a storm, becoming the biggest waves in the Moon Rebel Hall for these days, and even so high-ranking mbers of the Moon Rebel Hall heard and paid attention.
And there were believers too, but almost ninety percent of the comnts were negative.
At the sa ti, so highly respected masters, who usually kept a low profile, also made appearances. So of them expressed their opinions, while others discussed the possibility of this.
This mont, in the eastern part of the Moon Worship Region, on the nine colored plains which was situated at so distance from the Heavenly Fire Sea, there was a master who had concealed himself here.
Right now, soone was quickly approaching the cave abode where he was in seclusion. He knelt there and lifted a pill bottle high.
"Master, I bought this curse-resolving pill refined by Pill Nine from soone else."
After a long ti, the cave abode's door opened and a huge suction force spread out, enveloping the pill bottle and drawing it inside.
Inside the cave, an old man in white robes sat cross-legged. Surrounding him were dozens of red-eyed squirrels, each emanating a remarkable aura, all of them sitting cross-legged just like humans.
As the pill bottle flew over, the old man grabbed it and expressionlessly opened it. After taking a sniff, he took it out and sized it up a few tis.
"There's the aura of the green sand desert's white wind."
"This relies on the vitality from the white wind, allowing a semblance of balance with the Crimson Goddess' curse. But in reality, this thod was abandoned many years ago."
"One who consus this pill will be unhard at first, but if done for a long ti, it will certainly result in backlash."
The old man calmly spoke.
The cultivator outside the cave abode revealed a respectful expression and nodded.
"Indeed, that's why it is so inexpensive. Your knowledge, Master, is truly profound."
The old man continued to observe the dicinal pill and pinched it again. Finally, he shook his head.
"There are also so herbs mixed in, as well as so unknown items, but ultimately, the structure is flawed."
"The alchemists these days don't cultivate and study properly. They rely on shortcuts, showmanship, and crowd-pleasing. Those who fall victim to their deceptions in the future will undoubtedly be nurous."
With that, the old man waved his hand and threw the curse-resolving pill to a squirrel at the side. That squirrel picked it up and swallowed it.
"Just so-so."
The old man no longer cared. He looked outside the cave abode and calmly spoke.
"Such actions reveal a malicious nature, and they must be punished. Go to the Moon Rebel Hall and inform them that I will also be improving the curse-resolving pill. Six days from now… at the sa ti as Master Pill Nine, I will release the new pill."
"The curse-resolving pill I modified is also a innovative pill. Its dicinal effect will be twice that of the original curse-resolving pill, and the side effects have been reduced by half!"
As soon as the old man finished speaking, the expression of the disciple outside instantly changed and great waves rose in his heart. It was only after a long ti that he took a deep breath and left, heading to the Moon Rebel Hall to announce this matter.
Very soon, this matter stirred up another storm in the Moon Rebel Hall.
"Master Shengluo will be releasing an improved curse-resolving pill six days from now!"
"With such efficacy and only a slight side effect, this is truly a miraculous pill, far superior to that so-called curse-breaking pill!"
"Master Shengluo's na is based on reputation, unlike Pill Nine, who plays tricks and disgusts people!"
Different from the skepticism about the curse-breaking pill, this ti, almost everyone was applauding and looking forward to it. At the sa ti, every ti they praised him, they would ntion Xu Qing's curse-breaking pill.
The storm in Moon Rebel Hall churned much more intensely.
The commotion in the Moon Rebel Hall also spread to the outside world. At this mont, two days before the release date, as he was researching curses, Xu Qing saw the captain with a mysterious expression on his face.
"Little Qing, you've got a big problem!"
The captain looked at Xu Qing with a mocking expression.
Xu Qing lifted his head and looked at the captain.
"What is it?"
The captain had a smug expression when he heard this. He sat opposite Xu Qing and smiled.
"What's wrong, Little Qing? Didn't you say that you're my best friend, Master Pill Nine? Don't you know what's happening? Let tell you, you're the hottest topic in the Moon Rebel Hall now."
The captain had a smug smile on his face as he took a bite of a peach.
Xu Qing expressionlessly nodded.
"Still pretending?" The captain laughed and patted Xu Qing's shoulder.
"Little Qing, I've been paying attention to you these few days and didn't sense any fluctuations from entering the Moon Rebel Hall. Especially on the day when the master returned, I was at his temple!"
"After that, I imdiately returned to take a look and discovered that you were playing chess with the elder. So, between us good brothers, you don't have to brag."
The captain smiled proudly.
Xu Qing fell into deep thought. He didn't rember playing chess with the heir before. Hence, he glanced in the direction the heir lived in and recalled the statues in the temple back then.
Unfortunately, with the concealnt from the Moon Rebel Hall, he couldn't be sure if the captain was among the statues in the temple back then.
However, seeing that the captain was so excited, he thought about it and didn't break the other party's sweet dream. Hence, he calmly spoke.
"What happened to your best friend?"
"It's nothing major. He uttered that he would release a new pill in a few days. When I went to look for him today, he showed it to . I think it's so-so." The captain coughed.
"However, it was still passable, so I comforted him. He was in a bad mood and felt that he was being questioned, so I told him that being questioned ant that he was valued."
"Under my persuasion, Old Nine ca to his senses. In order to thank , he agreed to give a pill after releasing it."
"After I get it, Little Qing, I'll give it to you!" The captain said proudly.
Xu Qing nodded. He decided that when he entered in a few days, he would observe those followers carefully a few more tis and see which of them had the style of the captain.
Just like that, ti flowed by. There was only a day left until the release date. Outside the earth city where the apothecary was located, the sky suddenly rumbled. A powerful pressure spread out from the desert and whistled toward earth city.
The green sandstorm also beca violent at this mont. There were also bolts of lightning swimming inside.
Upon closer inspection, one could see the figures of many cultivators in the sandstorm.
These cultivators wore white robes and their heads were also covered. However, their bloodlines seed to be bizarre and they seed to have fused with the sandstorm. Wherever there was wind, their figures would appear.
There were no less than thousands of them. Their existence also caused the green wind to show white color.
There were also five astonishing energy fluctuations that gave off the aura of the Spirit Repository .
Although the aura at the front was also of a Spirit Repository, it was authoritative and was infinitely close to Nihility.
This was a white-haired old man. His expression was cold as he walked forward with his hands behind his back. His target was clear as he headed straight for earth city.
Beside him were so juniors. One of them was the perfected Nascent Soul cultivator who had nailed the shadow back then.
These people were none other than the mysterious Wind Guard Race of the desert!
"Ancestor, it's this earth city!"
On the day when the villain took away our sacred item, our race had issued a warrant for him. Recently, I received information that he is in the apothecary in this city!"
The white-robed man said through gritted teeth. When the ancestor heard this, he calmly spoke.
"My race has been inactive for a long ti, and it seems that the cultivators in the green sand desert have forgotten our reputation. So, we can use this opportunity to reestablish our prestige by dealing with this individual, reminding the cultivators of the green sand desert of the na of the Wind Guard Race."
In the distance, the earth city was in sight. The small apothecary inside was also clearly visible.
