Chapter 891: Chapter 469: Tier Seven Dao Pill

Putting away the Painting Realm Treasure Mansion, Li Mu took a deep breath, instantly deploying the Five Elements Escape Technique, followed by the Spatial Splitting Technique. His figure flickered through space, vanishing from the spot, quietly returning to the depths of Yin Yang Valley.

As everyone knows, a Thunder Tribulation represents the might of Heaven and Earth, with an incredible momentum that always attracts a group of greedy "vultures"—those cultivators seeking opportunities, attempting to seize treasures.

Li Mu’s figure had just disappeared when, moments later, several figures appeared at the spot like phantoms.

"Huh? Where is he?"

A middle-aged man, broad-shouldered and clad in black armor with a stern face, gazed at the empty ground with a hint of confusion. His eyes flickered with brilliance, seemingly able to penetrate the void, yet he couldn’t catch a trace of Li Mu.

"Fellow Daoist Qiu, what a coincidence!" A gentlemanly cultivator appeared, smiling at the black-armored cultivator, with a hint of gloom in his eyes.

"Hmph! Impossible to shake off!" Qiu Tianming snorted coldly. There was some unknown enmity between him and the gentlemanly cultivator as he searched around for something.

"No need to search, he left long ago. This is no ordinary Thunder Tribulation; the scent of Pill Tribulation is rich. Someone must have refined a Tier Seven Dao Pill and successfully survived the Pill Tribulation."

Then, an old man with a sinister face in a black robe appeared, holding an ink-black cane topped with a gem that glowed eerily green, giving an ominous and dangerous impression.

"So it’s a Pill Tribulation. Ancestor Wuyou, can you tell what Dao Pill this is?"

A petite woman in a blue palace dress followed, staring intently at the old man, persistently inquired, her voice containing undisguised greed.

Upon Ancestor Wuyou’s words, both the black-armored cultivator and the cyan-robed gentleman showed greedy expressions,

Ancestor Wuyou’s eyes flashed with a brilliance, slightly shaking his head: "This Pill Tribulation’s momentum is vast and unique. I can’t be certain about the specific Dao Pill. However, any pill that triggers such a tribulation is no ordinary item and must have extraordinary effects against the heavens."

"Heh, Ancestor Wuyou, you’re an alchemist yourself. With this pill fragrance, you should have some guesses, right?" Qiu Tianming asked with a slight provocative tone.

"Fellow Daoist Wuyou, that’s not right," the cyan-robed Confucian cultivator smiled at Ancestor Wuyou, interjecting: "We discuss here just to better understand the situation for dealing with what comes. If you intend to monopolize this pill, we won’t stand idly by."

As the cyan-robed Confucian cultivator finished speaking, the blue-skirted female cultivator, and the black-armored cultivator looked at Ancestor Wuyou with hostility, making the atmosphere tense.

Feeling the hostility, Ancestor Wuyou stared at the cyan-robed Confucian cultivator with a flash of killing intent, angrily scolding: "Fellow Daoist Qin, stop sowing discord here. There are countless Spirit Pills in the world. The Ancestor has seen few Tier Seven Dao Pills. If unknown, so be it. If you want to seize this Pill, go ahead, but why blame me?"

Ancestor Wuyou’s angry voice echoed through the open field, solidifying the already tense atmosphere.

The cyan-robed Confucian cultivator smiled lightly, seeming undisturbed by Ancestor Wuyou’s anger. He gently waved his fan, speaking calmly: "Fellow Daoist Wuyou, you overstated. We merely wish to know more details to have better assurance in the competition. Since you know not its origin, I won’t press further."

The cyan-robed Confucian cultivator shifted his tone, asking the others: "This person’s body technique is very high, and their Hidden Breath Cultivation remarkable. Do any of you have clues to share, so we can cooperate to pursue this person, and distribute the Dao Pill later!"

"That’s right, if anyone has clues, please share! I’ll start first." The blue-skirted female cultivator agreed, nodding. Instantly, she summoned a Spirit Talisman from her Storage Ring and introduced it: "This is a Tier Five Tracking Trace Talisman, able to display the traces left by the caster several hours ago."

"This talisman, while not able to directly find the mysterious cultivator’s hideout, can indicate a general direction." The blue-skirted female cultivator explained while deploying the Spirit Talisman.

Soon, streams of Spirit Light converged, revealing traces of Spiritual Qi left from spells within a few miles area.

The four scanned the area, showing expressions of difficulty. Under the Tracking Trace Talisman’s effect, they indeed detected signs of the Five Elements Escape Technique. However, this person’s spell distance was so far that they disappeared, making it difficult to trace his general direction with the talisman.

"Such a marvelous Five Elements Escape Technique. Fellow Daoists, I’ve tried my best. This person’s Five Elements Escape Technique’s distance far exceeds the positioning range of the Tracking Trace Talisman." The blue-skirted female cultivator indicated to the others: "Now let’s see your means."

"Ling Fairy, no need to worry. Though this person’s Five Elements Escape Technique is strong, there are many cultivation techniques in the world, surely there are tracking methods." The cyan-robed Confucian cultivator, Fellow Daoist Qin, smiled confidently. He gently swayed his sleeve, from which slid a weathered Jade Scroll: "I have a method called ’Qiankun Positioning Technique,’ that locates the caster’s position based on the Spiritual Qi fluctuations in Heaven and Earth."

Speaking, the cyan-robed Confucian cultivator tossed the Jade Scroll lightly, quickly sealing with both hands, chanting solemnly, as the scroll emitted a faint golden glow.

Seeing this, everyone invigorated, watching as the cyan-robed Confucian cultivator cast the spell.
