Chapter 1325: 1325

The Pill Tower was located in the southern part of the Eastern Xuan Capital . As for the Huayun Sect’s branch sect, it was located in the northern part of the city . The two of them were about as far from each other as possible .

When Long Chen arrived at the Pill Tower, he was stunned by its grandeur . They really had too much money .

The tower stretched into the clouds, and it was too high to even see its top . It was made of rainbow gold that was incredibly dazzling under the sunlight .

There were 108 high towers in the surroundings of the main Pill Tower, like stars around the moon . It was a powerful visual effect .

“Tch, a bunch of counterfeit medicine sellers actually make this much money . How completely unprincipled,” cursed Long Chen as he looked at the soaring main tower .

They really were rich . Long Chen estimated that just the cost of the materials spent on the main tower was greater than ten Xuantian Dao Sects .

He had investigated Pill Valley’s medicinal pills and the pills that circulated on the market . Their quality was not bad, but the medicinal pills that Pill Valley enjoyed a monopoly of had basically all been modified to reduce their medicinal effect . It was clear that Pill Valley had intentionally decreased their effect to make more money from the people .

It was no wonder Pill Valley was so powerful . This kind of wealth was truly enough to suffocate countless other sects .

“Hey, little fellow, what are you doing looking so s.h.i.+fty-eyed?”

Long Chen was at the entrance to the Pill Tower and appraising its splendor when a cold shout rang out .

Several of the Pill Tower’s disciples were guarding this entrance, and they found Long Chen displeasing to the eye .

Naturally, men would hope to be more handsome than others . While Long Chen’s face had been changed to no longer be so handsome, it was definitely not ugly . His tall figure was also attractive . However, his robes were broken down, and there wasn’t the slightest grandness around him . He didn’t look much better than a beggar .

If his aura didn’t show that he was a Foundation Forging disciple, these disciples would have probably kicked him away already .

“Haha, brothers, please forgive me . I’m actually one of Pill Valley’s disciples and came from the Eastern Wasteland . I encountered a crisis in the Martial Heaven Sea-Ring and almost died, so I only managed to get here now,” said Long Chen .

“Pill Valley’s disciple?” Those disciples’ expressions immediately changed . They were just disciples of the Pill Tower . It was unexpected that this poor-looking fellow would actually say he was from Pill Valley . They couldn’t quite believe it .

“Everyone, please don’t mind my broken robes . I still have a few snacks in my pocket, so I’ll trouble you to report that the Eastern Wasteland’s Pill Tower’s compet.i.tion’s champion, Long San, has arrived and is asking for help . I hope you won’t laugh at me for this little gift . ” Long Chen handed over several small bottles . Each of them was filled with liquid .

“High grade soul nouris.h.i.+ng elixir?” Those disciples were startled . They had definitely been suspecting this fellow of being a swindler, but seeing this soul nouris.h.i.+ng elixir, they immediately felt more trust toward him .

They had Xiantian realm cultivation bases . This high grade soul nouris.h.i.+ng elixir was extremely precious to them, and what they needed most at this moment .

Seeing that this poor fellow was actually able to take out this much, their opinion of him immediately rose several levels .

They immediately put away the soul nouris.h.i.+ng elixir . Seeing their experienced movements, Long Chen knew that they were experts in doing that . They probably accepted quite a few bribes like this normally .

“Yes, just wait here . I will go alert the higher-ups!” Money could make even ghosts work . Very quickly, a middle-aged man was brought over .

“You say you are from the Eastern Wasteland’s Pill Tower? Do you have any proof?” The middle-aged man frowned upon seeing Long Chen . He clearly found Long Chen’s appearance to be a bit hard to accept . How could a Pill Tower’s disciple end up looking so dest.i.tute?

“This is the ident.i.ty badge I obtained for taking first at the compet.i.tion . ”

Long Chen handed over a golden badge to the middle-aged man . That was what he had obtained in the Pill Tower, and it was a token of Pill Valley .

“Come with me!” That middle-aged man’s expression softened slightly upon seeing it .

Long Chen followed him into a courtyard . After two long corridors, they arrived at the main tower .

When he entered the main tower, he saw that the inside was even greater than what it appeared to be . There had to be a spatial formation present . Inside the tower was actually a lake, and there was a beautiful island at the center . This scene was like one out of a painting .

They had only just stepped onto the green island when they saw a group of people standing there . The middle-aged man beckoned to Long Chen to not move .

“Protector Zhuo, the Xuantian Dao Sect is acting carefully, and Li Tianxuan hasn’t given us any opportunity . We won’t be able to do anything to the Xuantian Dao Sect temporarily . ” A voice rang out .
