99: Come with me, your senior brother will take you to harvest vegetables.

"Time is up, the Bodhi Forest is closing..."

A cold, emotionless voice resonated throughout.

Shen Nian was already shrouded by the light emanating from the jade talisman, and he looked up at the dense, shifting runes in the sky.

"The power of Void Return Dao laws?"

"However, if there are Void Return Dao laws, why is the fluctuation emitted to the outside world so weak..." Shen Nian couldn't help but ponder in his heart as the space around him shifted.

When a Void Return ruin appears, the heavens and earth of the Great Xia would change color. After all, that is a mighty figure who has already forged a dao palace and begun ascending to the heavens, especially an ancient Cultivator; the momentum formed is extraordinary, and the Soul Transformation Stage Cultivators of Great Xia would certainly gather.

What Shen Nian found strange was not this, but why this ruin would suppress the Realm to the Nascent Soul Stage, and that voice about passing the trial just now; it felt like it was screening for something...

However, Shen Nian thought about it again.

That's true.

How could a place where the Daughter of Destiny comes be ordinary? Perhaps there are even surprises...

While Shen Nian was lost in his own thoughts.

The others also revealed expressions of shock, looking at the world at this moment.

"Time is up?"

"Ouch! I only picked two!!" Murong Chen immediately looked distressed.

Lin Qingyue had taken five bodhi fruits and smiled with satisfaction, saying softly: "People, you know, must learn to be content..."

This instantly earned him the appreciation of the Purple-Robed Man, who had only taken three due to his injuries, and he cast a look of approval toward Lin Qingyue.

"Brother Lin, since you are so generous, will you share two with me later?" Murong Chen said with a wink and a smile.

"Get lost." Lin Qingyue said with a smile.

"Tch..." Murong Chen curled his lips, then heard Liu Huihui on the side say coldly: "Isn't it because you like to gossip and waste time?"

Her harvest this time was not bad; four bodhi fruits were in her pocket. If the ancient bodhi forest hadn't suddenly withered, there might have been more.

Thinking of this, Liu Huihui couldn't help but look at Shen Nian, who was already surrounded by light.

"Is it because of him?"

Not long after he left, the ancient bodhi forest ended up in this state; it was hard not to be suspicious.

At this very moment.

Blown into the sky and on the verge of death, Lu Ya also felt the world changing, and he prayed in his heart: "Heavens, I beg you, let me out..."

"You're overthinking it. Is this a place you can just come and go as you please?" Old Man Jiu You habitually added a jab.

"Cough...!" Lu Ya immediately coughed up a mouthful of blood, his face turning dark.

Whose side are you actually on, damn it!

Seeing Lu Ya's miserable state, Old Man Jiu You couldn't help but feel a bit of pity, and after thinking about it, he said: "Why not pray that you try not to run into him in the rest of the ruins..."

The next second.

Boom!

The world went dark, and everyone's vision turned black. A flash of light passed, and everyone disappeared...

When they opened their eyes again, they were already in a grand palace. All around were stone pillars that required five or six people to encircle. An ancient aura permeated the air, and the thick scent of Medicinal Pills filled their noses, refreshing and invigorating.

"The scent of Medicinal Pills, is this the Pill Hall of the ruins?" Murong Chen couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, somewhat excited. There was no shortage of Alchemists in Sunset Valley who had cleared ruins, and every time they mentioned that some ruins contained Pill Formulas and Medicinal Pills left behind by ancient Alchemists, they would show expressions of covetousness.

This is a good place!

Directly in front of him was an open door. The room was simply furnished, with only a gray Pill Furnace placed on a wooden table, and many Materials were laid out beside it.

Then, looking closely, there was a wooden sign standing on the wooden table with a line of words carved on it.

"Refine what you want yourself; only finished Medicinal Pills can be taken away."

"This..." Murong Chen was stunned when he saw this.

"What the hell?"

"Refine Medicinal Pills myself?"

"Who is an Alchemist Great Master here?"

But when he turned his head, he found he was alone, and was instantly dumbfounded.

"It seems everyone has been separated. Forget it, I have learned a little bit of Alchemy, let me try it first." Thinking this, Murong Chen stepped into the room.

At this very moment.

Shen Nian glanced at the Pill Furnace and scanned the Pill Formula on the table. When he saw the three words "Extreme Divine Pill," he immediately lost interest.

He was already in the Soul Transformation Stage, so this Medicinal Pill was like a chicken rib to him.

Did he need to spend preaching value to learn Alchemy?

Too wasteful!!

This was a Medicinal Pill that Cultivators in the Nascent Soul Stage took to increase their chances of successfully breaking through to the Soul Transformation Realm. It was indeed a fatal temptation for Nascent Soul Cultivators. One had to know that not everyone had such talent like Shen Nian, and carried a cheat, so the vast majority of Cultivators found every breakthrough extremely difficult.

He felt it wasn't very useful, and besides, he didn't know how to perform Alchemy, so he turned and left, intending to wander around to see if there were any other good things.

"It seems to be conjured by a Formation, not a real palace..." Shen Nian walked while gazing at his surroundings. He could see that the walls of this palace were carved with ancient symbols, with spiritual light flowing through them from time to time.

The first trial was a Formation, the second trial was Alchemy; the owner of this ruin must be someone who cultivated multiple paths.

Shen Nian guessed to himself in his heart.

Not long after, he walked to the outside of a wooden hut and subconsciously looked inside, just in time to see Lu Ya, who was inside with an excited face, driving flames conjured by spiritual power, his eyes shining.

Inside the room.

Hot air permeated the room, and sizzling burning sounds rang out.

Lu Ya looked at the Pill Furnace with some excitement, completely focused.

He completely failed to notice the figure outside, or perhaps his brain had been hammered into a crash, and his reactions had slowed down.

"Hahaha!"

"Although this Medicinal Pill is difficult to refine, this place has the blessing of a Formation, which actually allows me to refine beyond my level!"

"Over these years, I have thoroughly read the 'Pill Classic' and 'Alchemy Techniques,' and diligently studied the path of Alchemy; today, I finally have a place to put it to use!"

"No one understands Alchemy better than me!"

He revealed a confident expression; without exaggeration, his Alchemy level could rival the Alchemists of Sunset Valley!

These forty-plus years of his were not lived in vain!!

"Ouch... it hurts, it hurts..." Lu Ya immediately felt pain and touched his swollen face; the laughing action just now was too intense. Immediately after, his expression became filled with resentment.

Shen Nian!!!

I will definitely return the humiliation of today in the future!!

This scene made Shen Nian chuckle.

This Destined Villain is a bit miserable...

However, he wouldn't pity the other party one bit. If not for his appearance, it would be Lu Ya showing off right now, and generally speaking, villains are not good things.

Shen Nian could tell just by looking at that face of his.

However, he didn't reveal himself, but instead thought of something and walked around again.

At this time.

Inside a Pill Refining Room.

Xia Youyue looked at the Pill Formula and Pill Furnace in front of her and revealed a wry smile.

How would she know how to refine any pills!

All her thoughts over these years had been on Cultivation.

"Sigh, not everyone has the talent of Senior Brother, being able to Cultivate multiple paths..." Xia Youyue sighed helplessly, but her beautiful eyes were filled with longing as she looked at the Pill Formula.

This is the Extreme Divine Pill!

If she took it back, it would definitely greatly increase the chances of the Extreme Realm Hunyuan Grandmaster of Great Xia condensing a Golden Body, and she would also need to use it in the future.

But the rules had already stated that one could only refine; the pills refined could be taken away, but other things could not...

So what could she do? Seeing it but not being able to get it, it's painful!

"Forget it, I might as well Cultivate." Xia Youyue thought to herself. Just as she was about to sit cross-legged here to consume some spiritual liquid refined by the little green bottle to Cultivate, a figure stepped inside.

"Why aren't you refining pills?"

Shen Nian asked.

"Senior Brother, I don't know how," Xia Youyue answered with a wry smile.

"Oh."

"Then come with me, I will take you to harvest."

"Harvest?"

Xia Youyue looked confused, somewhat puzzled by this fresh term.
