245: boiling!

Guo Yongsi just watched, wide-eyed, as Lu Hao got closer and closer to the Medicinal Pill, stepping directly into the one hundred thousand Restrictions!

"What?! You... you... you... how can you walk in there unscathed?!"

Guo Yongsi shouted, an expression of sheer horror involuntarily appearing on his face.

This... aren't there one hundred thousand Formations and Restrictions here?! What is going on? Could they have all failed?!

Why hasn't a single one triggered?!

If that's the case, can I go in too??

With the mindset of testing it out, Guo Yongsi slowly approached the edge of the Formation, but looking at those densely packed Formations and Restrictions, he felt a bit intimidated.

However, seeing how incredibly relaxed Lu Hao looked, he gritted his teeth, stepped out with his right foot, and just as he entered the range of the Formation...

"Boom!"

A bolt of lightning immediately struck down at his crown at lightning speed!

What!

No way... I just took one step in, why are you striking me?! Why don't you strike him instead!

You should be striking him! He's almost at the Medicinal Pill!! I only just took a small step in!

Guo Yongsi waved his hand to swat away the lightning, left speechless...

Unable to understand, Guo Yongsi tried again, suddenly flying forward about a hundred meters.

In an instant, over three thousand of the one hundred thousand Formations and Restrictions were triggered!

Countless bolts of lightning, flames, and blades, spears, swords, and halberds rushed toward Guo Yongsi.

"What the hell!"

Guo Yongsi cursed loudly and scrambled to run away, retreating from the range of the Formations and Restrictions.

At this moment, only a string of profanities could express his current mood...

He wanted to go see that Medicinal Pill too!

"Hehehe..."

A moment later, he laughed, though it was a laugh born of anger.

The Danyang Ancient Region was bustling with noise, and because Guo Yongsi had caused such a commotion on Lu Hao's side, people soon noticed Lu Hao's figure!

"Who is that? What is he trying to do?!"

"Am I seeing things?! There is actually someone inside the one hundred thousand Formations and Restrictions?! Is he taking a stroll?!"

"What?! Someone can stroll inside one hundred thousand Formations and Restrictions? Is that for real? Let me see!"

But soon, someone realized what was happening.

"Oh no, he's aiming for the Nine-Rank Pill! Stop him quickly!"

"Which guy is that, did he eat bear's heart and leopard's gallbladder? How dare he set his sights on the Nine-Rank Pill?!"

In an instant, the entire Danyang Ancient Region was rocked; Lu Hao's actions had undoubtedly touched the bottom line of the Danling State!

Within a short moment, numerous Grandmasters of Alchemy nearby arrived on the scene!

The first to arrive was Dan Ding!

He had been staying in the Danyang Ancient Region these past few days handling matters for the Ancient Pill Sect, so he was not inside the Ancient Pill Sect.

"Lu Hao! What are you doing?! Stop immediately! Do you want to defy the whole world?!"

Dan Ding shouted indignantly!

"If you take away this Nine-Rank Pill today, you will be an enemy of the entire Danling State! Lu Hao, don't be stubborn!"

Lu Hao heard this, stopped in his tracks, turned around to look calmly at the furious Dan Ding, and said indifferently:

"Old Mister Dan, although I don't know why you have repeatedly tried to stop me from buying medicinal ingredients, considering you were decent to me at the beginning, I can give you a chance to explain."

"Or, you can disappear from this place now, and I can pretend that nothing ever happened!"

"If you remain obsessed and insist on being my enemy, then don't blame me for disregarding our past ties!"

Lu Hao's voice was like a great bell, resounding between heaven and earth. Upon hearing Lu Hao's words, Dan Ding's expression began to fluctuate between dark and light!

He knew of Lu Hao's terror and was momentarily intimidated.

But as soon as he thought of his master's words, he became agitated again!

"Lu Hao, don't threaten me here. Putting other things aside, this pill is the spiritual symbol of our Danling State! How can you take it away today?!"

As soon as Dan Ding said this, it instantly drew agreement from the countless people around.

"That's right! Lu Hao, stop immediately, don't touch it! That was refined by the twenty-three predecessors of our Danling State at the cost of their lives; how dare you set your sights on it!"

"Sect Master Dan is right. If you dare to touch this Medicinal Pill today, you will have no way to heaven and no door to earth in the entire Danling State!"

"Benefactor Lu Hao, the sea of suffering is boundless, but turning back leads to the shore! Stop quickly!"

Listening to these voices, Lu Hao shook his head helplessly. The world is full of ignorance, and what most people know is often not the truth...

Even he had only finally understood the ins and outs of the matter after meeting Guo Yongsi!

Although Lu Hao didn't care about this and would leave soon after completing his task, he was still prepared to tell these people the truth.

Thus, he sent a voice transmission to Guo Yongsi asking:

"Senior Guo, may I tell them the truth about this Nine-Rank Pill??"

Guo Yongsi received Lu Hao's voice transmission and was clearly stunned. After a long while, he replied:

"Little brother, if you want to say it, then say it. However, I feel that if you do, it might cause the faith of many people to collapse..."

"These people grew up listening to the stories of the twenty-three predecessors; many of them have made them their lifelong pursuit..."

"If they discover now that it isn't what they imagined, I'm afraid..."

Lu Hao received the reply, but his heart did not agree with Guo Yongsi's thoughts.

If this group of people can only live under lies and their faith would collapse upon learning the truth, then they were never worthy of becoming a powerhouse in the first place!

A true Cultivator must have their own original heart! The determination to forge ahead! And will never change because of others!

Although he was very laid-back, Lu Hao still understood these principles.

Moreover, Lu Hao didn't think their faith would collapse.

Because Lu Hao would soon become their new faith, the faith of the entire Danling State!!

A supreme Grandmaster of Alchemy, an existence that has grasped the Origin of Alchemy!

After thinking it through, Lu Hao looked around at the densely packed Cultivators and suddenly laughed.

He stood with his hands behind his back, slowly rising into mid-air, looking down at the countless Alchemists surrounding him.

Lu Hao's handsome face appeared in everyone's field of vision. He wore a white robe that fluttered without wind, and his face carried a smile that felt like a spring breeze.

Only to hear Lu Hao speak:

"Fellow Alchemists, please listen to me!"

This single sentence from Lu Hao directly contained the pressure of his terrifying cultivation, instantly silencing the noisy crowd around him!

Sometimes, if you want others to be quiet and listen to you, you still need to have some real ability.

"I, Lu, did not come here to take away that Nine-Rank Pill, but to complete the final step of refining the Medicinal Pill!"

"What?!"

Dan Ding said, shocked beyond measure:

"This Medicinal Pill has been refined for nearly one hundred thousand years, why would it still need you to refine it?!"
