Chapter 10 - Gambling Pills
Ancient trees surrounded Pill Pavilion, the old tree was vast and ancient, adding on the ancient and grand aura of Pill Pavilion, this made Pill Pavilion appear even more mysterious.
There were patches of green and bronze on the ancient bronze door, and there were even some signs of it falling off. The markings of ancient times were carved on it, clearly indicating that it had existed for a long time.
In front of the main entrance of the Pill Pavilion, there was a square shaped stage that was one metre tall, and each of it was thirty meters wide. Currently, there were a dozen or so disciples of the Pill Pavilion standing orderly on the stage.
Among them were young and old, men and women. Their ages were all different, but they were all imposing and had extraordinary cultivations. However, at this time, their cultivation had been restrained, and even their expressions were extremely amiable. From the looks of it, they did not seem haughty at all.
The disciples of the Pill Pavilion had always kept a low profile, which was a huge contrast to the arrogant and despotic disciples of the Law Enforcement Hall. Moreover, all of them had the ability to refine pills and were respected by the people in the clan. Although the Law Enforcement Hall had several times the number of people in the Pill Pavilion, their prestige in the clan was not even a tenth of that of the Pill Pavilion.
When Lei Yang stepped into the plaza, there were already many direct descendants gathered at the foot of the stage in front of the Pill Pavilion. Lei Yang roughly swept the area, and among the disciples that came to pick up the pellets, most of them were at the third and fourth level of spirit energy.
Ever since Lei Yang had the golden seal's rune on his chest, he realised, not only was he able to see other people's cultivation level, he could even hide his own cultivation level. However, his own cultivation level was currently at the third level of Qi, so there was no need for him to hide.
Actually, he did not know that the thing that helped him see through others' cultivation bases and hide his own was not the golden rune on his chest, but rather the drop of golden liquid on his forehead that he had yet to detect.
He had not started distributing the pellets yet, so Lei Yang casually found a spot on the side and started to meditate with his eyes closed, ignoring the rest. He waited for the pellets to be distributed and picked them up before leaving.
He felt that the spiritual energy in this garden was very dense, so he decided to cultivate. As the 35 bridges opened, they absorbed the spiritual energy of the world. He quickly discovered that his cultivation had improved by a bit.
However, Lei Yang's actions were quickly stopped by the friendly shouts of the disciples of the Pill Pavilion. Because if one was not a disciple of the Pill Pavilion, cultivation and breathing were not allowed here.
Fortunately, they did not recognize Lei Yang and the discussion came to an end very quickly. Because the spirit energy in this place was very dense, as long as it was a disciple who entered the Pill Garden for the first time, they would probably make such a mistake, so everyone was not surprised.
The distribution of the pills still required a period of time, and cultivation was not allowed here. Feeling bored, Lei Yang decided to look around, it was his first time here, so he was very curious.
But just as Lei Yang was looking around, a figure walked out from the path in the plaza. He was dressed in white, his expression arrogant and arrogant, and it was none other than Lei Ming.
”What a narrow path for enemies to tread!” Lei Yang clenched his fists until they were hot, the hatred at the bottom of his heart started to boil, but in the end, he still slowly calmed down, because he remembered his father's repeated warnings.
”Forget it, there will be opportunities in the future anyway.” Lei Yang said firmly in the bottom of his heart.
However, after Lei Yang observed, although Lei Ming's talent was average, he did not know what method he used. In just a few months, his cultivation had increased by a lot, and he had reached the early stages of the sixth level of Qi.
And following the rise of his cultivation level, an unparalleled arrogance, arrogance, and domineering feeling seeped out from the depths of his bones. As soon as he walked into the square, he heard a lot of flattery.
Lei Ming had a smile on his face, and was very satisfied with the reaction of the direct line of descent. He cupped his fists together as he walked towards the platform in front of the Pill Pavilion's gates. Everywhere he went, the entire plaza would automatically make way for him, and even the two to three attendants who were at least at the third or fourth level of Spirit Qi followed him and made way for him.
Although Lei Ming had an extremely bad reputation within the clan, due to his father's position in Lei Kaishan, on the surface, the disciples of the clan still respected him a lot. After all, no one was willing to offend this evil star.
Lei Ming had always enjoyed the feeling of being praised high above by others, so he had not noticed the huge change that had occurred to Lei Yang who was hidden in the crowd, making it even harder to see him.
He strode to the front of the stage, and greeted a forty year old middle-aged Pill Pavilion disciple standing in the center of the stage with a cupped fist: ”Greetings, Uncle Lei Tong.”
But it was as if the middle aged man named Lei Tong did not buy his words, and only snorted coldly and did not reply.
Lei Ming was no longer interested, he only chuckled, but his eyes flashed a cold smile, which meant, I want to see how long you can stay alive for. After that, he started to chat and laugh with the other clan disciples around him.
Not long after, the two gigantic bronze doors at the bottom of Pill Pavilion suddenly opened, and a strong pill fragrance immediately spread across the entire plaza, causing everyone to suck in a breath, their spirits lifted, at the same time, the entire plaza fell into a dead silence, only leaving behind the slowly opening bronze doors of the Pill Pavilion, which emitted a dull creaking sound.
The huge bronze door was not completely open. Instead, it only opened a crack that was just large enough for an adult to pa.s.s through before it stopped. As he stopped, a handsome young man wearing a white robe slowly walked out.
As he walked out, the dozen or so Pill Pavilion disciples on the stage immediately turned around and cupped their fists and bowed to him respectfully. Even Lei Tong, who had a cold expression earlier, had a respectful expression.
