Chapter 222: Act on the News

There are reports that Huapin Pavilion, which was the first to purchase the Breakthrough Pill, had their alchemists gather together to study the pill after buying it, trying to find out what the main ingredient is for making it. If possible, it would be even better if they could find the recipe.

  But it's a bit strange that there has been no progress so far.

  Because the taste of Breakthrough Pills is so unique, it should not be difficult to distinguish, but even now no one can tell its main medicinal ingredient.

  This seems to confirm the rarity and preciousness of the main medicinal ingredient in Breakthrough Pills, because if it were a common medicinal ingredient, it would be possible that no one could tell the difference.

  But at the same time, it also seems to indicate that if this main medicinal ingredient is found, then there will be a direction for research and development. Maybe with everyone's combined efforts, there is hope of testing out the recipe for the Breakthrough Pill!

  By then, the money will not be earned solely by the Xianlai Sect!

  "Although I am just as curious as everyone else, unfortunately, I don't know either." Shopkeeper Niu spread his hands, indicating that he was powerless. "But don't worry, our people are already searching all over the continent. When we find more medicinal herbs in the future, there will be more breakthrough pills for sale, and maybe everyone can get one."

  Everyone laughed when they heard it.

  "How is this possible?"

  "No matter how many pills there are, it's impossible for everyone to have one. They're so expensive!"

  "Yeah, I just hope I can get it. Of course, it would be better if the price is cheaper."

  "Of course it would be cheaper if there were more quantity, but now the quantity is so small, it's good that they don't raise the price!"

  So naturally, the inquiry was not continued any further.

  On that day, the news that the Xianlai Sect was recruiting disciples with extremely bizarre conditions spread very quickly.

  The people who came to Ziye City this time were originally from all over the mainland, from all over the world, so the news was also brought to all parts of the mainland and was quite widespread.

  If the conditions for recruiting disciples in Xianlai Sect were just normal, not many people would pay attention to it, but it is really unique.

  They wanted the elderly, even those with physical problems!

  This immediately caused a heated discussion on the mainland.

  "Is the Xianlai Sect going crazy because of lack of people? How can they recruit disciples like this?"

  "That's right, it's like picking up junk, I really don't care!"

  "Don't mention it, they are really short of people... It is said that the entire sect has less than 20 people in total."

  "Haha, a sect with less than 20 members… Wait, is it such a sect that created the Breakthrough Pill??"

  "Hiss, as long as you get started, you can get a breakthrough pill for free? Is this true?"

  "Don't believe this too much. It's impossible for all disciples to get the Breakthrough Pill for free. There must be other requirements."

  "It's normal to have requests, but at least there is a chance. It's like saying those who are close to the water get the moon first, right? Disciples who perform well after entering the sect will definitely have a greater chance."

  "No more talking. I'm going to Ziye City now."

  …

  Although the conditions of Xianlai Sect are a bit strange, it is actually a good thing for everyone because more people have the opportunity.

  Those cultivators who missed the sect's selection when they were young and thought that it would be fine for them to be a casual cultivator, but who only realized how difficult life was when they really went out on their own, had the possibility of a second choice.

  Although the Xianlai Sect has a small number of members, they are able to sell such expensive pills, which shows that they are rich and have some connections. It wouldn't hurt to give it a try.

  And more people who were moved by the news were actually monks who had physical injuries that affected their cultivation!

  It was very common for monks to get injured, and most injuries could be healed after timely treatment. But some injuries were special and could not be treated immediately, or they seemed to be cured but left a root cause, so that the existence of such hidden injuries always affected their cultivation.

  Apart from anything else, there are only a few people in the Xianlai Sect, but many of them have health problems.  

  For example, Xu Yihan, Meng Ling, Lin Fu, and even Mo Jiuwei.

  Zhao Ning, whose soul was searched and his consciousness was damaged, can barely be counted as one.

  In fact, there are many cultivators like them in the continent, but they do not have such good luck to heal their injuries, which makes it difficult for them to make any progress in their cultivation for the rest of their lives, and some have to endure the torture of illness for the rest of their lives.

  When they heard that the Xianlai Sect would recruit even sick people and could heal their injuries, many people were attracted to join, as if they had found a life-saving straw again!

  In a house in Haiyao City, an elderly man gently pushed open a door. It was pitch black inside, as if no one lived there and there was no life.

  There was a person lying on the bed, motionless, and he remained indifferent even when he heard the door open.

  "Ting'er, there's hope, your eyes can be saved!" The old man trembled as he walked to the bedside and held the man's hand. "There's a sect that's looking for disciples, and as long as you can join, they'll treat you. Pack your things quickly, and I'll take you there."

  The man had his eyes tightly closed and was originally motionless, but the old man pulled him hard, and he finally spoke, "Recruiting disciples? Who would accept me as a disciple at my age?"

  His grandfather was really confused.

  The young man's voice was lifeless. In fact, he was determined to die. If his grandfather had not begged him for his life, he would have died the day he went blind.

  "No, that's not it. This sect is different. If you trust Grandpa, they will definitely accept you. You were such a genius before..."

  "Even if I accept it, what's the point? No one can cure my eyes."

  "Child, do you still remember the Breakthrough Pill? The Lu family's child relied on it to break through to the Golden Core." said the old man.

  The man tilted his head, as if asking a question.

  He had heard of Breakthrough Pills.

  In order to boost his fighting spirit, his grandfather often came to talk to him and told him interesting things in the city and some special things in the world of immortal cultivation for fun.

  There is a Lu family in the city. The children in their family are like a devil. Last month, his grandfather said that the fifth son of his family broke through to the Golden Core stage with the help of a pill, and also said how special and precious the pill was.

  "That elixir was created by the Xianlai Sect. Many forces have tried to find the ingredients and research the elixir formula, but all have failed. The sect that is now accepting disciples is none other than the Xianlai Sect!"

  The man's body trembled, "Xianlai Sect..."

  "Child, grandpa will take you there, okay?"

  His hand felt hot, as if some liquid was dripping on it, burning the entire back of his hand.

  He finally couldn't say no, "...Okay."

  Unknown city.

  "Hong An! You coward, open the door!"

  The nun kept knocking on the door, but no one opened it for her.

  She became anxious, sneered, and jumped directly through the wall.

  "Hong An, how long are you going to hide from me!" She broke into the weapon refining room.

  "...Xiaoying, I'm already a disabled person. Please don't come again. I don't want to delay you." The bearded man turned his head away in pain.
