Supreme Elder Phoenix, who was in child form, sat down slowly.Everyone standing in front of the tables got busy the moment he made his announcement."Look, Floyd is starting to refine his pill.""Elder Erwell is starting too.""Hey, look at Chase Collins. Why is he just standing around?"Most of the disciples watching the summit noticed that all Chase did was go blank while standing after Supreme Elder Phoenix announced the summit’s commencement. He was not refining any pills, and it ignited a discussion."He must've been scared silly because he has no experience in such a huge event.""You’re right. I heard that he was an independent cultivator before Elder Evans brought him back to the sect. It’s only normal that he feels frightened in an event like this."Many of the disciples agreed with this statement.It was not that Chase did not want to start refining pills. He watched as the people around him began to start fires while adding various spiritual plants into the pill fu
"Hahaha! Looks like it."While everyone was discussing this, Lundly had successfully refined a vat of pills and was presenting it to Supreme Elder Phoenix to verify."Good. Not bad at all. I didn’t know that you’ve become a Pill Refining Master. You’ve managed to refine grade-five Energy Reviving Pills!" Supreme Elder Phoenix exclaimed in surprise after verifying the pills."No wonder Floyd Bale was able to refine his pills successfully. It’s because he has a good master. Look at them, both master and disciple are now Pill Refining Masters. The sect will rely on them from now on."As the supreme elder, Supreme Elder Phoenix was happy to see this. It has been a long time since the sect had such encouraging news since the passing of their last sect master.Supreme Elder Phoenix’s words immediately attracted all the disciples to crowd around them."What? Did I hear this right? Elder Erwell managed to refine grade-five pills?""Is that true? That’s grade-five pills we're talking abo
Supreme Elder Phoenix replied, "This is a grade-five Element Nurturing Pill, and it’s a superior grade as well.""What? Chase Collins managed to refine a grade-five pill? And it’s an Element Nurturing Pill?""That’s impossible. Didn’t he suffer from stage fright? He was standing there in a daze all this time. When did he refine that pill?""Even though Inedia Pills and Element Nurturing Pills are both grade-five pills, Energy Reviving Pills are used to recover true energy after one has depleted their cultivation. Inedia Pills, however, are used to solidify elements within a cultivator. It’s clear that Element Nurturing Pills are the superior pills. How did someone like Chase Collins manage to refine such a pill?"Everyone was shocked to hear Supreme Elder Phoenix say those words, and there were looks of disbelief on their faces.It took a long time before Lundly approached Chase to say coldly, "You didn’t refine that pill just now, did you, Chase Collins?""I refined it last nigh
"A man of his age already possesses such high cultivation. How is it possible that he’s also talented in pill refining? He’s clearly playing us for fools.""That’s right. He’s looking down on the Esoteric Medical Sect by giving us such an attitude. He doesn’t deserve to be in our sect. Kick him out.""Kick him out, Supreme Elder Phoenix!""Yeah! Kick him out!"All of the Esoteric Medical Sect’s disciples began yelling out for this.The few elders began to surround Chase with animosity.Even Blake did not dare to say another word. After all, Lundly’s accusation made sense.Chase did not give any excuses when he saw this happening. All he did was look at Lundly and say coldly, "You’re a Pill Refining Master, aren’t you? You should be able to tell if these pills were refined yesterday."Lundly ignored Chase."Kick him out. Get him to leave the Esoteric Medical Sect.""We shouldn’t let him off that easily. His cultivation should be destroyed for creating such a huge disturbance t
It was apparent that Lucas and Phoenix knew each other, and Lucas was aware of Phoenix’s character."Sir, I’ve never once said that I wanted to be the sect master of Esoteric Medical Sect. You were the one who kept mentioning it. I’m willing to refine these pills in public today because you asked me to, not because of some sect master position. I refuse to have anything to do with the Esoteric Medical Sect after I show them what I can do," Chase replied in his mind.The next moment, Chase gathered all his focus to the summit.He took out the three bags with difficulty as he was still being suppressed by Lundly’s power.Lundly released Chase from the suppression when he saw what Chase was trying to do.Chase suddenly went limp and almost fell to the ground.He stabilized himself and opened the bags while slowly saying, "I came to the Esoteric Medical Sect because of you, Elder Evans. I was full of expectations for the sect before coming here, but all I feel for the sect now is dis
Chase would never have believed that the voice came from that child if he had not seen it for himself."Supreme Elder Phoenix, there isn't much to say. I’ve already made up my mind. Please just let me leave." The look on Chase’s face changed when he saw Phoenix.This man was a martial monarch. He was even more powerful than a martial sovereign.If Phoenix wanted to force Chase to stay, there was nothing Chase could do to fight back."You’ve misunderstood me, Master Collins. I'd never force you to stay. I was wrong with how I acted before, and if you need someone to be angry with, feel free to vent your anger at me. I'll never resist it. Do feel free to leave the Esoteric Medical Sect if you want to. "It’s just that we’re all trapped inside this secret realm and are unable to step into the world. We won’t be able to be by your side, Master Collins. How about if I let Blake stay by your side and protect you?" Phoenix was asking this of Chase humbly."There is no need for this, Su
After exiting the Esoteric Medical Sect, Chase found himself in a desolate mountain range. After surveying the surroundings, he realized it was the same place he had entered before.It seemed that the entry and exit points of the Esoteric Medical Sect's secret realm were fixed.After orienting himself, Chase transformed into a streak of light and left the area.In his mind, he asked Lucas, "Sir, why is the Esoteric Medical Sect’s secret realm fixed while the Dragon Vein Secret Realm follows me everywhere?""I don’t know the exact reason. The Dragon Vein Secret Realm used to be like the Esoteric Medical Sect, always situated in the Collins family's estate in Capital City. This change probably had something to do with Divine Collins." Lucas, who had been in isolation due to the Esoteric Medical Sect matters, quickly responded to Chase's question.Hearing the name Divine Collins again, Chase grew curious. "Sir, who exactly is this Divine Collins?" Although Chase had a vague idea, h
"If you don't have money, why run a restaurant on my turf? Do you have a death wish?" Sal shouted. His kick would have left the owner in pain for days.At that moment, a diner suddenly stood up and positioned himself between Sal and the owner, blocking the kick. The diner was none other than Chase."Hey, how much is the bill?" Chase asked.He arrived at Capital City a day ago but was in no rush to look for Gareth. Instead, he wanted to learn about the local customs, which led him to this small restaurant.He had not expected to encounter such a situation during a simple meal. Chase ultimately intervened with the intention of resolving the conflict peacefully.Sal was shocked that his kick had been blocked by someone who appeared out of nowhere. Not only was his kick stopped, but the numbness in his leg indicated that this person was no ordinary man.However, Sal remained defiant, thinking he had the advantage of numbers.As expected, a green-haired youth in Sal's group shouted
