"Brother, brother! From now on, you're my real brother... Ugh... Don't worry, I'll definitely be there for your Foundation Establishment Ceremony!!!"

Yun Aotian patted the Iron Sand Sect Master on the shoulder, shook his head a couple of times, and pulled up his pants!

"Brother, if I weren't confident, what's the point of the alchemy sect even having a Foundation Establishment stage? Go, and I'll definitely open your eyes to a whole new world!!"

The swaying Iron Sand Sect Master, Iron Third, and Yun Aotian, supporting each other, walked from the outhouse back to the dining table, boasting all the way, and drank until dawn.

"Ugh... ugh..."

Yun Aotian was vomiting so badly that he felt terrible.

Yun Xiaofeng patted his back from behind.

"Aotian, is this really going to work???"

Yun Aotian vomited a large amount of food, feeling as if his head was about to split open.

"Sister, this is called drinking culture. Now that our Yun Dan Sect is weak, Xiao Li'er's pills are good, but these people have to see them with their own eyes to believe it!"

These cultivators are all cunning old foxes; they won't act until they see the benefits! Once they've witnessed Little Plow's abilities, then, hmph, the tables will turn!

Yun Xiaofeng didn't quite understand, but she nodded nonetheless.

Qiu Ye had sent her a message earlier, but it was very vague. She only said that the sect's medicinal herbs had been stolen, but the vice sect leader seemed to have already come up with a solution!

The sect's Foundation Establishment Ceremony will be held in three days. I just hope everything goes smoothly!

The disciples in the medicine shop neatly categorized and put away all the medicinal herbs!

Su Li arrived at the alchemy square without even changing his clothes!

All 375 alchemists of the second rank or above were present and eager to begin their work.

Su Li didn't waste any words and simply addressed the crowd!

"Gentlemen! You've managed to retrieve these medicinal herbs. Now, it's up to you all to see what you can do!"

"Don't worry, Vice Sect Master, no matter how difficult it is to obtain that pill, we will definitely succeed!"

"That's right! Let those bastards from other alchemy sects see that any disciple of our Yun Dan Sect can successfully establish their foundation!!"

"That's right!! We're all going to reach Foundation Establishment, so I can walk sideways in the future!!"

Soon, no one spoke in the entire alchemy square. Everyone took out their medicine cauldrons, and clusters of medicinal herbs flew through their hands!

At Di Dan Hall, Ling Changfeng finally couldn't resist inquiring about recent events!

He couldn't resist meeting Ge Cheng!

"Master, the sect leader has gone mad! They actually want to establish their foundations in front of other sects! If they fail, won't our Yun Dan Sect become a laughingstock???"

Ge Cheng's face darkened, revealing a gloating expression.

"Hmph! This is utter nonsense! Ignore it. They'll suffer the consequences and come begging me to take charge!"

Ling Changfeng felt a little uneasy. What if they succeeded...? How could they still have a place in the Yun Dan Sect afterward?

He couldn't help but recall that night... He even later suspected that he had actually had a nightmare....

After all, no genius wants to admit that they've soiled their pants.

Lu Liuyun hesitated for a moment before speaking.

"Master...are we really going to stay out of this???"

Ge Cheng glared at him!

"Woman's compassion! I want to preserve the foundation of the sect. Do you really think those two young children have never even seen a Foundation Establishment Pill before?"

They're just here to laugh at the Cloud Pill Sect!

Several carriages sped along the main road. Today was the Foundation Establishment Ceremony of the Yun Dan Sect, and many sects had sent people to attend!

Some came to see the Cloud Pill Sect make a fool of itself, while others came to witness the behemoth's final struggle. A few smaller sects were there out of a sense of pride.

Yun Aotian is such a heavy drinker! They accidentally agreed to come and watch this boring Foundation Establishment Ceremony at the dinner table!

Tell me, which sect's disciple doesn't reach the Foundation Establishment stage? It's truly unbearable to watch!

The first to arrive were the carriages of the Lan Clan's Pill Sect!

Xu Changping, recommended by Su Li, was in charge of welcoming the guests!

Xu Changping was followed by Lu San and Chen Fengzi, one a chatterbox and the other a bad-tempered man!

Su Li gave the order: if they encounter someone who can't speak, Lu San will go; if they encounter someone who will attack directly, Chen Fengzi will go!

"What? You have to pay for parking? I think your Yun Dan Sect is desperate for money?!"

The coachman from the Lan Clan's Pill Sect could hardly believe his ears. In all his years of driving carriages and attending countless sect gatherings, this was the first time he had ever heard of charging for parking.

Xu Changping smiled ingratiatingly.

"Alas! According to the sect's rules, I'm nothing more than a gatekeeper!"

Lu San stiffened his neck!

"What's with all that nonsense?! You can't even afford parking, what's the point of going out?! If you don't have money for parking, just go home!"

The Lan Clan's Pill Sect members: ? ? ? Go back? They'd traveled such a long way, their intestines were practically spilling out from the bumpy ride, and they just glanced at the gate and went back??

Lan Duanhai, who was listening inside, grew extremely impatient and threw out a bag of spirit stones!

"Get out of my way!! Hmph, you brat Yun Aotian, do you think I need your little bit of spirit stones???"

Seeing that Lan Duanhai had handed over the spirit stones, Lu San, who had been holding his head high, immediately turned his head and bowed obsequiously.

"Hey!!! Welcome Lan Duanhai, the Fourth Elder of the Lan Clan's Pill Sect! Please register your gifts on the right!!"

Lan Duanhai: ...Damn Yun Dan Sect, they're really desperate for money!!!

Dust billowed as several carriages sped by; it was Liu Chenxin from the Alchemy Guild!

Xu Changping remained enthusiastic.

"Oh dear, isn't this Elder Chenxin? It's been quite a while since we last met since you left our Yun Dan Sect..."

Liu Chen nodded with a forced smile.

The members of the Alchemy Guild scoffed at this.

"Stop trying to curry favor here. Elder Liu is now a highly sought-after alchemist in our Alchemist Guild. Does your Yun Dan Sect even deserve to mention Elder Liu's name?"

Lu San immediately became unhappy.

"What? What else should we call him but Liu Chenxin? Hmph, what Li Zong? He's just a traitor. If it weren't for our sect leader's magnanimity, I wouldn't have let him in!"

Enraged, Liu Chenxin smashed the carriage to pieces with a single palm strike and then slashed at Lu San with his own!

"Get away!!"

Chen Fengzi shoved Lu San aside with his shoulder, holding a large knife horizontally in front of him, not giving an inch!

Xu Changping took several steps back before regaining his balance!

"The Alchemy Guild is quite hot-tempered. If they look down on my Cloud Pill Sect like that, then they shouldn't come!"

Many carriages from surrounding minor sects arrived, and upon seeing Liu Chenxin's state, they couldn't help but shake their heads.

Liu Chenxin used to be a member of the Yun Dan Sect, but now he shows absolutely no respect. He's truly an ingrate.

Seeing the different looks in the eyes of the people around him, Liu Chenxin quickly concealed his spiritual energy.

"Hmph! I'm merely teaching this arrogant scoundrel a lesson on your behalf!!"

"Oh? Elder Liu Chenxin, how could our Yun Dan Sect's steward utter such arrogant words?"

Yun Aotian and Su Li, dressed in the distinctive robes of the Yun Dan Sect, were walking towards them with smiles on their faces!

Liu Chenxin snorted. How could Lu San have said those words?

"Since the Cloud Pill Sect does not welcome our Alchemist Guild, we will leave. I have nothing more to say!"

Liu Chenxin didn't believe that Yun Aotian would dare to show such disrespect to the Alchemy Guild in front of so many people.

But who knew that after he got into the carriage, the driver whipped the carriage and drove it two miles away, and no one from the Yun Dan Sect came to stop him!

Liu Chenxin was stunned, and the other minor sects who witnessed this scene were also stunned!

Su Li was dumbfounded... Sect Master, have you forgotten Elder Qiuye's three instructions on hospitality today?

Yun Aotian looked annoyed!

"Oh dear, Elder Liu Chenxin, how come he ran so fast? I was just joking with him!!"

Don't worry about it, everyone go inside! Quickly send a few people to invite Elder Liu Chenxin back!

The Alchemists' Guild is always magnanimous; why would they stoop to our level? He certainly won't go far!!!

Everyone: ...So, if Liu Chenxin doesn't come back, it's because the Alchemist Guild is being unreasonable? ???

"Hidden Dragon Sect, Liu Siwu has arrived!!"

Liu Yang, who was on duty, paused when he heard the name. He didn't expect that his good sister Liu Mengsha would also send someone, and it was this biting dog.

Liu Siwu went straight inside, looked around, and finally saw Liu Yang.

"Young Master Liu Yang, the sect leader asked me to ask when you will return to the sect."

Liu Yang looked Liu Siwu up and down.

"Alright, stop with your little probing tricks. Hidden Dragon Sect, ha! Do whatever you want."

Liu Siwu laughed heartily, and only after he had laughed enough did he turn and leave.

His men quickly stepped forward.

"Commander Liu, this Liu Yang..."

Liu Siwu lowered his voice.

"If there's a chance, then do it... If there's no chance... then turn him into a cripple!"

Following closely behind were members of the Iron Sand Gang, the Seven Heroes Sect, the Vast Expanse Sect, the Five Pill Hall, and the Pill King Xiao family.

Although everyone was dissatisfied with that ridiculous travel fee, the Yun Dan Sect was now acting like a dead pig that wasn't afraid of boiling water.

Pay up or leave!

Before the Foundation Establishment Ceremony even began, so much trouble had already occurred, and all the sects were whispering behind the scenes about what would happen to the Cloud Pill Sect after this incident.

Many people gloated, while others thought they absolutely must never buy medicinal herbs from the Cloud Pill Sect again, otherwise they would be offending the Alchemist Guild.

Besides the various sects, some independent cultivators from the surrounding area also came to watch the spectacle. Among them was a monk and a Taoist priest who were quite inconspicuous.

However, Yun Aotian still noticed them.

"Distinguished guests, please be seated. Today, all disciples of the Yun Dan Sect, as well as stewards, managers, and servants who wish to establish their foundations, will complete their foundation-building process here!!!"

"What??? Steward??? Handyman??? Foundation Establishment??? Pfft, what kind of joke is the Cloud Pill Sect playing???"

As Xu Changping introduced them, those who entered the center of the alchemy plaza included not only disciples of the Fengyun Hall, but also servants from various halls of the sect.

Even Zhang the Bald and Li the Cripple from the canteen came in the end!

One of the disciples joked.

"Where's Granny Liao? Why didn't she come???"

Baldy Zhang shook his head and let out a long sigh!

"That old woman has gone mad. Ever since she saw the vice sect leader refining pills a few days ago, she insists that she can also refine pills."

They even picked up some medicinal herbs that had been used for alchemy in the square and were studying how to refine them at the stove!

Granny Liao said she wouldn't come out unless she successfully refined the elixir!

The crowd in the square, seething with anger after being cheated out of their parking fees, thought: "Serves Yun Dan Sect right for its decline! Is even an old woman tending a fire this arrogant?!"

If even a stove can be used to refine pills, then what are these alchemists?
