Chapter 2835 The Little Expert at Extracting Elixir!
The Valley of Divine Hands is now a ruin, but even so, many disciples still guard it, without destroying the secret chamber.

After Wang Yue arrived with Han Li and Zhang Tie, they went straight into the secret room.

The room was dimly lit; several candles had to be lit before anyone could see what was inside.

This secret room contains not only many bottles and jars, but also many books and medicinal herbs.

Wang Yue and Han Li both focused on the books, while Zhang Tie went to look at the medicinal herbs.

Most of these books are ordinary books, and some are pathology books about patients who have been treated. They may not be useful to ordinary people, but for a doctor, they are definitely invaluable treasures of experience.

However, they didn't have time to look at these books at that moment, until their eyes fell on a secret manual from Changchun Palace, at which point they stopped.

Han Li and Wang Yue exchanged glances. Han Li obediently took a step back, while Wang Yue picked up the Changchun Gong.

The Changchun Gong manual was clearly handwritten by Doctor Mo himself, and Wang Yue had practiced it, but only the first few levels.

Wang Yue discovered that the content was no different from what Doctor Mo had given them, so he handed the manual to Han Li.

Han Li was always cautious, so he quickly read it carefully. He was somewhat disappointed when he found that it was indeed the same, but he still carefully put the manual away.

Seeing that there was nothing else of use to him, Wang Yue said to Han Li and Zhang Tie, "The Seven Mysteries Sect is in dire need of rebuilding. Are you two coming up the mountain with me, or will you stay here?"

This time, Han Li didn't wait for Zhang Tie to speak. Instead, he solemnly said, "Sect Master, Master is gone, but we are still here. Divine Hand Valley must have people."

Zhang Tie had originally intended to go with Wang Yue, but after hearing Han Li's words, he shut his mouth and remained silent, only looking apologetically at Wang Yue.

Knowing that Zhang Tie and Han Li had a good relationship, Wang Yue smiled and said, "You don't need to blame yourselves. I am still engaged to my master's third daughter. After I become the leader of the alliance, I will naturally marry my junior sister. I will not break my promise."

Zhang Tie couldn't help but chuckle foolishly and said, "That's good. I can rest easy now that my master is dead."

Han Li breathed a sigh of relief. He was really worried that Wang Yue was the kind of person who would turn his back on someone and then he would have to think carefully about how to get along with him.

Han Li felt he needed to make a statement, otherwise it wouldn't be appropriate for him to stay here. He immediately said solemnly, "Sect Master, I have learned a certain amount of Master's skills. I will continue to refine medicine for the Seven Mysteries Sect."

Wang Yue patted Han Li on the shoulder and then solemnly said, "The Everlasting Spring Skill we've learned might not be an ordinary martial art. It might be related to the legendary cultivation of immortality, so you'd better not reveal it."

You see, these cultivation manuals might not mean much to those who cultivate immortality, but they are treasures to ordinary martial arts sects and even ordinary people.

Han Li and Zhang Tie quickly made assurances, and only then did Wang Yue leave Shenshou Valley and return to Sunset Peak.

……

three days later

Sunset Peak
After the grand ceremony for the succession of the sect leader began, Wang Yue decisively announced his reform plan.

The first priority is to continue expanding the recruitment of disciples for the Seven Mysteries Sect to make up for the losses caused by this severe blow.

At the same time, if Feiniao Hall increases its efforts in recruiting spies, it will try to keep track of every move in Jingzhou, and then send spies to surrounding cities as much as possible, so that if any forces in the surrounding states have any ill intentions, it can prepare in advance.

Jubaotang has intensified its efforts to collect rare and precious materials. Whether it's medicinal herbs or other treasures, they can all be collected. The focus, of course, is on rare and spiritual herbs.

Sihaitang naturally increased its trade with various states to earn more money for the sect.

The Outer Blade Hall must protect the caravans while also eliminating bandits within its borders, striving to ensure that only one sect's voice resonates throughout the entire Jingzhou region.

Those who made contributions in this great battle were recruited into the inner sect, and the sect's martial arts techniques were made available to them based on their merits.

After making these arrangements, Wang Yue secretly sent someone to gather information that there was a celestial sect there, and his next step was naturally to make contact with that sect.

However, even after making the arrangements, Wang Yue was still uneasy, so he inevitably used the Body Control Talisman and the Dual-Hand Technique to forcibly keep each branch firmly under his control.

Wang Yue knew that cultivation required a lot of resources. Although it would be difficult for a secular sect to provide a Nascent Soul cultivator, it would be no problem to share a Foundation Establishment cultivator.

Under the Seven Mysteries Sect's major actions, and with Wang Yue's control talisman constantly exerting its power, in less than a month, the entire Jingzhou was completely under Wang Yue's control.

Of course, there were some villains, but they were not cultivators and were easily wiped out by Wang Yue.

It was precisely this deterrent force that allowed the Seven Mysteries Sect to maintain its position as the controller of Jingzhou.

Although Jingzhou is located in the remote northwest of Yue, it is the largest of the thirteen prefectures of Yue.

Originally, the imperial court didn't care at all about the conflict between the two martial arts sects. They even deliberately instigated the conflict between the two sects and then used the principle of balancing power to maintain their rule.

But now that Wang Yue has unified Jingzhou, the prefect of Jingzhou can only defer to Wang Yue's wishes, which has made the imperial court somewhat unable to stand by and watch.

However, Jingzhou had not declared independence, and taxes were still being paid, so it was not appropriate to send a large army to annihilate it.

After all, although these secular emperors seem to have a lot of power, the problem is that the real power lies with the seven immortal sects.

Therefore, the Yue Emperor had no choice but to send the court's night scouts to Jingzhou to gather information. It was good that he could make a decision after obtaining evidence.

Unfortunately, Jingzhou had no immortal sects at all, and it was like a quagmire shrouded in black mist. No matter who came, they would never return. Therefore, the Yue Emperor ordered the governor of Jingzhou to come to the capital to report on his duties.

However, after the prefect of Jingzhou arrived in the capital, he stated with certainty that there was nothing unusual, which greatly displeased the Emperor of Yue.

After all, to put it grandly, all land under heaven belongs to the king. Although Jingzhou is remote, it has now been lost to him. How could he tolerate this?

Of course, Emperor Yue's idea was that since the Seven Great Immortal Sects were bullying him, even a small place like Jingzhou was going to bully him?
Therefore, Emperor Yue sent two of his trusted subordinates to Jingzhou to check on the situation.

When the two arrived in Jingzhou, the disciples of the Outer Blade Hall that Wang Yue had arranged were no match for them. Almost all of their subordinates died in a single encounter.

Fortunately, the disciples of the Flying Bird Hall spread the news very quickly, which also made Wang Yue aware that two super experts, suspected to be cultivators, had arrived.

However, the people of Fei Niao Tang were merely a means of transmitting messages in the martial arts world, and they were completely unaware that they were being tracked when they released the carrier pigeons.

As a result, problems arose one by one in the various branches of the Seven Mysteries Sect in the counties of Jingzhou.

Wang Yue quickly became alert on Qixia Mountain and also took precautions.

However, the Seven Mysteries Sect had already suffered heavy losses and had not yet fully recovered. With its external branches being wiped out one by one, Qixia Mountain was somewhat vulnerable.

It's only because Wang Yue is quite capable that he wouldn't have dared to make such an arrangement.

However, some people thought Wang Yue was just bluffing, such as the escaped leader of the Wild Wolf Gang, Jia Tianlong, known as Golden Wolf.

Unwilling to see his centuries-old legacy destroyed, Jin Lang used the family's secret treasure, the Ascension Token, to invite the Golden Light Master. The two of them secretly went up the mountain.

"who!"

Wang Yue was studying a map he had recently acquired, a map of the Yue Kingdom, hoping to find out which places had cultivation sects. He already had some targets in mind when he sensed someone intruding.

"Kid! You've got guts!"

Jia Tianlong appeared in the hall, looking at Wang Yue as if he were a dead man.

Wang Yue smiled and shook his head, saying, "You're the one who's bold. You don't really think you can handle me all by yourself, do you?"

Jia Tianlong didn't know whether Wang Yue was truly capable or just bluffing, but he valued his life highly, so he smiled and said, "Master Jin Guang, it's your turn to make a move."

"You really are a coward. You need me to deal with such a kid."

Jia Tianlong, however, showed no shame whatsoever. He said matter-of-factly, “Qixia Mountain is relatively empty now. As long as we kill him, I can get the supplies here and maybe even make a comeback. I’ll have the chance to show my respect to you in the future.”

Master Jinguang laughed and said, "Forget it, I'll kill the person and leave. That will be the end of the matter you asked me to do. We'll be even!"

Jia Tianlong immediately nodded and said, "Of course, I just want revenge."

Master Jin Guang smiled and looked at Wang Yue, saying, "Boy, I won't bully you. I can give you three moves. If you can't defeat me within three moves, then I'll have to take your life."

When Wang Yue saw Jia Tianlong acting so recklessly, he knew that this Golden Light Master must be a cultivator.

But seeing how domineering Jin Guang Shangren was, he wondered to himself if this person was a Golden Core cultivator.

But the novel clearly describes it as Qi cultivation.
However, considering the drastic changes that often occur in TV dramas, Wang Yue was really unsure whether it would be the same as the novel.

Of course, this person is definitely not a Nascent Soul cultivator. After all, those below the Nascent Soul stage are nothing but ants, and they look down on these worldly things.

Wang Yue didn't dare to be negligent. He slowly drew a sword and said seriously, "In that case, I'll accept your offer!"

After he finished speaking, he immediately thrust his sword forward out of thin air. The sword disappeared a meter away from Wang Yue. Then, just as Jin Guang Shangren was stunned, he suddenly felt a chill in his lower abdomen.

Master Jinguang looked down and found that a sharp point was protruding from his dantian.

He felt the spiritual energy he had painstakingly cultivated dissipate completely, and he said in alarm, "You, you are also a cultivator!"

Wang Yue had no idea whether soul-collecting magic or time reversal existed at this time, so of course he couldn't admit it. He just smiled and said...

"Wrong, this is swordsmanship! You can also call it the Dao!" When Jin Guang Shangren was speaking, he was manipulating a small sword with his fingers, intending to use the flying sword to launch a sneak attack on Wang Yue.

As a result, Wang Yue suddenly pulled it out at this moment, and then countless sword energies suddenly shot out from the body of the Golden Light Master, which directly turned it into blood mist.

Jinlang Jia Tianlong, who was very close to Jin Guang Shangren, was also unable to escape and was instantly riddled with holes by the suddenly released sword energy.

Wang Yue simply waved his hand, and a gust of wind blew the blood mist directly outside the door, along with Jia Tianlang's corpse.

To Wang Yue's surprise, three items were left at the scene: a storage bag, a small sword, and even a sign.

Wang Yue remembered that the novel said this was an Ascension Token, and with this token, he could join one of the seven major sects.

Wang Yue felt that this thing was obtained without any effort. He put away the token and the small sword first, and then began to study the storage bag.

This storage bag isn't particularly large, but it can still hold a whole room.

However, besides a set of sword control techniques and a Qi cultivation manual, the bag contained only treasures that mortals would need.

It seems that this Venerable Jin Guang is also a person who enjoys life. But that makes sense. If he didn't enjoy life, why would he get involved in the struggles between mortals? He would probably just take the reward and leave, which would be quite magnanimous.

Wang Yue felt he should put these things in the warehouse later, but before he could leave, he immediately felt two very oppressive auras pressing down on him.

According to Wang Yue's own perception, the auras of the two newcomers were much stronger than those of the Golden Light Venerable from before.

Wang Yue immediately became alert and shouted upwards, "Since you two are here, why don't you come down and have a cup of tea?"

"Kid, you'd better surrender when you see us!"

As soon as Wang Yue finished speaking, a tall man and a thin man crashed through the roof and fell from the sky, landing right in front of and behind Wang Yue.

Judging from their attitudes, they are preparing to take down Wang Yue, and they are very confident about it.

Wang Yue found it somewhat amusing, so he bluntly asked, "You two must be from the imperial court, right?"

"Kid, you're so calm. It seems you're not going to surrender. In that case, I'll have no choice but to take you down."

The tall, burly man clenched his fist and then suddenly charged at Wang Yue.

Wang Yue knew that cultivators had many ways to escape, so he had to strike with a single, decisive blow; otherwise, one of them might escape.

So Wang Yue immediately fled in the direction of the skinny man, but he deliberately veered off course and didn't crash straight into him.

"Go back!"

As expected, the skinny guy fell for it and immediately blocked Wang Yue's path, trying to stop him.

What the skinny man didn't expect was that Wang Yue had just changed direction and, taking advantage of the two of them getting close to him, suddenly made a Tai Chi move.

At the same time, Feng Hou Qi Men opened wide, instantly enveloping the two people, and time seemed to slow down at that moment.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Wang Yue grabbed the strong man and the skinny man with one hand each, and then switched to using the Northern Darkness Dao Technique!

The burly man and the skinny man had no idea what was going on. They suddenly found themselves unable to move at all, and then they felt that neither their lives nor their souls could move.

The two men were horrified, neither of them having expected that Wang Yue would possess such terrifying evil skills, which were simply too much for them, two cultivators comparable to the Foundation Establishment stage, to withstand.

Wang Yue didn't care about all that. He had no interest in the life essence of these two people, since he was a Foundation Establishment cultivator and couldn't break through without a Foundation Establishment Pill.

So Wang Yue's purpose was simply to exhaust the two of them and simultaneously read their memories.

It turned out that the two men were members of the Black Fiend Cult in the capital. They had been ordered by their leader to come and investigate, and the Black Fiend Cult's headquarters was located in the imperial palace.

Seeing this, anyone who isn't a fool would understand that the Black Fiend Cult leader is either the emperor or one of the emperor's confidants.

Based on the memories of the past two years, it can be learned that the seven sects of cultivation did not allow the emperor of Yue to cultivate immortality.

But the emperor actually sent two cultivators over, making the secret all too obvious: the emperor was secretly cultivating immortality.

Wang Yue did not consider reporting it, after all, the emperor was not human either, and wanting to cultivate immortality was a basic human instinct.

In the cultivation world, it's all about the survival of the fittest. Since the other party has already come knocking on his door, how can he possibly return the favor?

Therefore, Wang Yue decided to deal with the emperor first before getting married. Otherwise, if he went to cultivate immortality and lost his woman, it would be bad.

Just as Wang Yue was pondering, the burly man and the skinny man completely disappeared, leaving only two beads floating in the air.

However, as Wang Yue activated his Northern Darkness Divine Art, the two beads, each containing a different elemental energy of heaven and earth, drifted towards him.

Wang Yue could sense the immense energy contained within the two beads, and he felt that he would probably need their assistance when he broke through to the next level.

So he stopped absorbing them and instead put the two beads away.

It was the same Qingfeng Technique that was used. A gust of wind blew by, leaving nothing behind. Wang Yue was very frustrated. These two people were not even as good as Jin Guang Shangren. They didn't even leave behind a storage bag.

Wang Yue sighed helplessly, then called out Elder Ma and Elder Zhang, asking them to take over the strongholds again. He then went to Shenshou Valley himself.

Wang Yue felt that since he was leaving temporarily, someone needed to keep order, and who could be more suitable than Zhang Tie?
Han Li and Zhang Tie, one practicing boxing and the other preparing medicine, stopped what they were doing and bowed to Wang Yue when they saw him approaching.

Wang Yue gently offered a helping hand, then smiled and said, "I might have to go to the capital, so I'll need you to help look after the house. I won't let you help for nothing; I have a newly acquired set of Qi Refining Techniques here, unlike the one from Changchun Company which only has the earlier stages. You can practice it up to the thirteenth level of weapon refining."

Han Li was immediately excited when he heard that he had reached the 13th level of the weapon refining stage, because he could clearly feel that cultivating immortality had greatly improved his energy and spirit. Although he had not fought with anyone, he knew how good cultivating immortality was.

Zhang Tie excitedly asked, "What about me? Can I cultivate?"

Wang Yue said with a smile, "I don't know. You can try it. This is just a common weapon refining technique. Anyone can learn it regardless of their spiritual root."

So the important thing is whether you have spiritual roots; if you do, you can use them all.

Seeing Wang Yue's words, Zhang Tie immediately replied, "Brother Wang, you just go ahead and do your work. Leave things here to me. As long as I, Zhang Tie, am alive, I will definitely keep an eye on the Seven Mysteries Sect for you."

Wang Yue smiled and nodded, then looked at Han Li and asked, "And you?"

After hesitating for a moment, Han Li said, "Sect Master, I'm sorry, I want to cultivate immortality properly!"

Wang Yue thought Han Lei was a cautious person and that he had to let him see the manual first. He sighed and said, "Actually, it won't delay your cultivation. After all, you're only at the fourth level now, and it will take a long time to reach the thirteenth level."

As he spoke, he handed the Qi Refining Manual to Zhang Tie before continuing.

"With the support of our Seven Mysteries Sect, you will be able to use the best medicines when you cultivate, which will greatly improve your cultivation."

So your agreement to watch my house is a win-win situation.

Zhang Tie could read now, so he quickly memorized the contents of the first level of the Qi Refining Technique. Then he stopped reading it and handed the manual over to Han Li.

Han Li took a serious look at it, and then dreamed of starting to cultivate the Qi Refining Technique. He discovered that there really was heaven and earth energy entering his body.

After confirming that Wang Yue had not deviated from the plan, he respectfully said to Wang Yue, "Thank you very much, Sect Master! I can agree to stay in the sect until I reach the thirteenth level of Qi Refining and can no longer make progress before leaving."

Wang Yue smiled and said, "That's great, then I can leave with peace of mind."

As he said this, he turned and left. He needed to return to Sunset Peak to give a proper explanation, and of course, he also needed to re-refine the flying sword that could remain on the golden light.

With a flying sword, you can fly on it, so you don't have to worry about traveling slowly.

Refining flying swords was a piece of cake for Wang Yue, and he easily refined them.

Through Jin Guang Shangren's sword control technique, Wang Yue easily figured out the Shu Mountain sword control technique completely, and it was time for him to set off.

The capital city, the imperial palace

Wang Yue flew here quickly on his sword, and then, relying on the memories he had read, he found the headquarters of the Blood Fiend Sect directly.

When Tie Luo saw Wang Yue enter disguised as a burly man, he snorted and asked, "Qingwen, why are you here alone? Where is Ye She?"

Wang Yue imitated the burly man's voice, saying in a very rough tone, "He's still in Jingzhou. I have something to report to the sect leader!"

Tie Luo grunted and said, "Wait a moment! I'll go and report to the sect leader."

Wang Yue didn't say much, just stood there waiting. After Tie Luo entered the secret chamber, he approached the ice demon standing to the side and asked,
"Is everything alright in the capital?"

The Ice Demon, completely unprepared, shook her head and said, "With us here, how could anything happen? What exactly happened in Jingzhou?"

Wang Yue had already approached the Ice Demon. He pretended to speak in a low voice, but then suddenly launched a sneak attack!
He passed through the ice demon's abdomen and forcefully grasped a cyan inner core!
