What the hell, becoming an outer disciple?
Wu Ji Hall!
Limitless Sect Sect Master Sect Leader Ouyang Hao and the Elders were anxiously waiting outside the hall.
"Sect Master, what exactly is going on?"
Some high-ranking members of the Sect were gathering from all directions.
Apparently, they had also heard the news of Old Ancestor returning heavily injured, but they were unclear about the specifics.
Sect Leader Ouyang Hao's Face was grim, filled with vexation.
But he still patiently explained, "Old Ancestor entered an ancient Secret Realm."
"He suffered unimaginable heavy injuries in the Secret Realm, and now Six Elder is treating him."
"We won't know the full situation until Six Elder comes out."
As he was speaking, a figure exited a side room and walked directly into the main hall.
This person was Six Elder, who had been diagnosing Limitless Sect's Old Ancestor.
"Six Elder, how are Old Ancestor's injuries?"
Sect Master Sect Leader Ouyang Hao immediately stepped forward and asked in a low voice.
This inquiry also tugged at everyone's hearts.
Six Elder frowned in thought, pacing back and forth in the hall.
This posture made everyone's hearts tighten.
Then they heard him slowly say, "Old Ancestor's condition is not optimistic."
"Not only are many of his Meridians ruptured, but his internal organs have also suffered severe damage."
"If it were just these, as long as we were willing to spend on some powerful medicines, it wouldn't be difficult for him to recover under my care."
"But the crucial point is that Old Ancestor's Divine Soul has also suffered extremely severe trauma."
"This is quite tricky, and I am powerless!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone, whose mood was already heavy, almost sank to the bottom.
Six Elder was a physician.
His medical skills, looking at the entire Limitless Sect, were considered top-notch.
Now even he said he was powerless.
Could it be that everyone could only watch Old Ancestor pass away?
"Six Elder, is there really no way at all?"
Sect Master Sect Leader Ouyang Hao asked, unwilling to give up.
Six Elder pondered for a moment, then said, "It's not that there's no way at all."
"Old Ancestor's Divine Soul is injured. As far as I know, there is a Quenching God Pill, which is a powerful Spirit Pill developed specifically for the Divine Soul."
"If we can find a Quenching God Pill, I am 100% confident I can save Old Ancestor."
"However, it is rumored that this Pill Formula has been lost for many years."
"Trying to find a Quenching God Pill is undoubtedly like searching for a needle in a haystack, as difficult as ascending to heaven."
Sect Leader Ouyang Hao anxiously said, "Can other Spirit Pills be used as a substitute?"
Six Elder said in a deep voice, "Something with a slightly lesser effect is not entirely out of the question."
"A Divine Pill can serve as a substitute!"
"However, even as a substitute, this Pill is extremely precious, and there is no circulation of it on the market at all."
"It can only be refined by a top Alchemist."
"If we can find two Great Master Alchemists, Old Ancestor might have a glimmer of hope."
As soon as these words came out, everyone first thought of Pill Cauldron Pavilion.
As everyone knew.
Pill Cauldron Pavilion, as one of the Five Great Holy Lands in the Eastern Region.
It gathered over 70% of the most top-tier Alchemists in the Eastern Region.
Sect Leader Ouyang Hao said in a deep voice, "How much longer can Old Ancestor hold on?"
"I can sustain his life for three days."
"After three days, even gods won't be able to save him!"
These words made everyone's brows furrow deeply.
Among the Five Great Holy Lands, Pill Cauldron Pavilion was located in the southern part of the Eastern Region, while Wu Ji Hall was in the northern part.
One was in the extreme south, the other in the extreme north, separated by hundreds of thousands of miles.
Not to mention that inviting a top-tier Alchemist from Pill Cauldron Pavilion would surely require a huge expenditure and great cost.
Even the distance itself meant that even an Earth Profound Realm expert could not make a round trip in three days!
Just as everyone's hearts were heavy, Six Elder then said, "Sect Master, if we gather all the strength of our Limitless Sect's Pill Refinement Peak, there might be a slim chance of refining it."
As soon as these words came out, Sect Leader Ouyang Hao's eyes lit up.
"Then why aren't you quickly gathering everyone from Pill Refinement Peak?" Sect Leader Ouyang Hao said urgently.
"It's just that Seventh Elder and Eighth Elder have already resigned... and we are short on manpower."
"Although they left, if we bring them back to help, it shouldn't be a problem," Sect Leader Ouyang Hao added at this point.
After all, the old ties between them still remained.
With him personally asking, Wu Yue and Shi Xiaotian would surely give him Face.
Thinking of this, Sect Leader Ouyang Hao immediately ordered someone to summon the Dark Guard Leader.
With the arrival of the Dark Guard Leader.
Sect Leader Ouyang Hao immediately inquired, "Do you know where Seventh Elder and Eighth Elder went after leaving the Sect?"
The Dark Guard Leader's expression immediately became strange.
The Limitless Sect's Dark Guard organization's influence spread across half of the Eastern Region, and they were well-informed about every little stir in the Eastern Region.
As the Dark Guard Leader, he naturally knew the movements of the two.
He even wondered whether he should report this matter to the Sect Master.
Now that the Sect Master asked, he immediately spoke out the information he had.
"Reporting to Sect Master!"
"Seventh Elder and Eighth Elder, ever since they left Limitless Sect, joined a second-rate Sect, Immortal River Sect, and became Outer Sect Disciples of Immortal River Sect's Mufu Peak."
"Not long ago, at the Xiandao Convention, the two Elders, as Outer Sect Disciples of Immortal River Sect's Mufu Peak, swept aside all opposition and won first place in the Disciple competition of the Xiandao Convention."
"What... what did you say?"
As soon as this news came out, Sect Leader Ouyang Hao's pupils constricted, and he widened his eyes.
The Elders and high-ranking officials even unbelievably dug at their ears.
They suspected if there was something wrong with their ears.
Elders of a Holy Land were considered high-ranking and influential, revered by thousands, and wherever they went, they were the center of attention.
But what did they hear?
Someone actually gave up such a high position, joined a second-rate Sect, and even became a damn Outer Sect Disciple.
Was this something a normal person would do?
And Sect Leader Ouyang Hao, as the Sect Master of Limitless Sect, felt completely unwell.
When Seventh Elder and Eighth Elder resigned from him, they said they wanted to retire to the mountains and forests.
But what was the result?
In the blink of an eye, they threw themselves into the embrace of another Sect.
If they had gone to a Sect better than Limitless Sect, or to a platform more suitable for their development, Sect Leader Ouyang Hao could understand.
Like Pill Cauldron Pavilion!
That force could provide things that Limitless Sect could not.
But now, what they joined was only a second-rate Sect.
Second-rate!
What did his Limitless Sect lack compared to a mere second-rate Sect?
This made Sect Leader Ouyang Hao feel deceived, and at the same time, an unknown evil Qi burned fiercely within him.
Anger, confusion, doubt... various emotions intertwined in his eyes.
He asked himself if he had treated the two poorly, but their actions truly broke his heart, though more than that was incomprehension.
However, this was not the time for anger.
Old Ancestor was in critical danger.
Seventh Elder and Eighth Elder were currently the only life-saving straw they could grasp.
"Where is Immortal River Sect? This Sect Master wishes to make a trip there!"
He took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the many negative emotions.
He asked the Dark Guard Leader.
The Dark Guard Leader respectfully handed over a map.
And thoughtfully marked the specific coordinates.
At the same time, he was silently complaining.
This Immortal River Sect seemed extremely strange!
Previously, Eighth Elder had furiously and unpleasantly asked him for a map of Immortal River Sect.
Not long after, he disappeared.
Seventh Elder was the same.
After the two returned to the Sect once, when he heard news of them again, they had already become Outer Sect Disciples of that Sect.
Now the Sect Master was asking him for a map...
"Hiss..."
He gasped, forcibly suppressing that unrealistic thought in his heart.
