315: C315 Carbuncle

C315 Carbuncle

The effects of the Decaying Life Pill, a mid-grade Earth Pill, could decaying life force, even if the life force around the wound was already gone. As long as the cultivator's cultivation base was below the Three Holy Stage, they could consume the pill and immediately wither it for good.

The grade of the Defrosting Life Pill was not particularly high, and it was not that difficult to refine. The reason why very few people had it was because the recipe was very rare, and Nie Zhen only learned about it when he was at the Medicine King Scripture.

The reason why the recipe for the Life Extinguishing Pill was unpopular was because the three ingredients that Nie Zhen mentioned previously did not seem to be related to each other, which was why no one had successfully produced the Life Exterminating Pill in thousands of years.

The pill that Nie Zhen refined for Yuan Teng was precisely this pill.

Without further ado, Nie Zhen brought the three medicinal herbs that he had requested before. After checking to see if there were any problems, he took out a few more basic medicinal herbs from his own Storage Ring.

Previously, Wu Tie reported the Yin Yang Five Elements Fruit and the other three herbs as the most important ingredient for the Life Eroding Pill. As Nie Zhen had all the other basic herbs, he didn't ask Sovereign Mu Yan and the others for them.

After cleaning up all the herbs, Nie Zhen started the furnace, lighting the fire, and concocting the pills!

In the next moment, the heavily injured Yuan Teng vaguely saw a pill refinement technique that he would never be able to forget for the rest of his life. It was godly and made him dazzled …

While Nie Zhen was concocting pills for Yuan Teng in the secret room, the Martial Tao Competition outside continued.

Nie Zhen and Yuan Teng were just a small episode in this competition. The following round of 32 was already coming to an end. Including Nie Zhen, all the top 16 names had been selected.

Amongst the top sixteen disciples, Jiugong Sect was still the best as ever, occupying a total of six spots, including the first disciple Su Qiyu, the second disciple Zeng Jue, and even Lei Yan.

And there were two people on the Duobao Sect Ranking, Nie Zhen and Qin Wuyan. In the previous round of the competition, Qin Wuyan had defeated an opponent of the same level, and had finally made it into the top sixteen.

In the other two sects, Origin Sect and Ice River Valley, only one person had managed to fight his way into the top sixteen. The Origin Sect was naturally Shangguan Yu's without a doubt, and the Ice River Valley was from Wei Chao, who was also one of the strongest disciples like Huang Xin, and entered the top sixteen.

The three major sects of Wang Ding Empire had the same list of names; two disciples each made it into the top 16.

The list of the top sixteen competitors has already appeared. At this time, Sovereign Tai Yi stood up, and said loudly to the spectators: "Fellow peers of the three great empires, I would like to congratulate the top sixteen participating disciples of this year's Martial Tao Competition. For you all to reach this stage, it is enough to prove that you are the peak existences among the younger generation of the three great empires. According to what was previously agreed upon, once we enter the top sixteen, we will have eight groups of disciples compete in pairs, one after the other. This is also to show our respect to the top sixteen competitors, and also to make it easier for the other disciples to learn from us. "

After saying that, Sovereign Tai Yi clapped twice.

Everyone felt the entire martial arts training ground shake. Then, under everyone's gaze, the eight arenas that were originally placed with the eight trigrams actually moved outwards at the same time. An even larger arena, ten times larger, actually rose up from the middle!

"This is the center stage of my Jiugong Sect, since the top sixteen fights are taking place in succession, then the stage will naturally be a bit more grand than the previous matches!" Sovereign Tai Yi smiled towards the crowd.

"He really is generous. I never thought that there would be such a big arena outside of the eight trigrams arena. Let alone the arena itself, even the principle behind moving the arena is probably one of the many sects." Great Sect Master of the Five Appearances Sect was surprised.

The other sects' training grounds had fixed arenas, except for the Jiugong Sect. Normally, the arenas were hidden, and only the most important matches would be held.

"Heh heh... Brother Long is too kind. Not only will the competition for the top sixteen be held in the central arena, even the Pill Tao Competition will be held in the arena three days from now. "

When the time came, the number of people in the Pill Tao Competition would outnumber the number in the Martial Tao Competition. Furthermore, it would be carried out at the same time, and only in the center of the stage could there be so many people participating at the same time.

After inviting the people in the central ring out, Sovereign Tai Yi had Zhao Ji and the other grand masters draw lots to determine the order in which they would compete.

Lin Wuhui was looking forward to this round of lottery draw. If he was lucky enough to get Nie Zhen out soon, then Nie Zhen might have automatically left because he couldn't rush over to participate in the competition.

Who asked Nie Zhen to pretend that he didn't care? In Lin Wuhui's eyes, this was just a young man being full of vigor and not being able to endure the provocation of others.

Although Lin Wuhui had confidence in Shangguan Yu, no matter how strong Nie Zhen was, he would not be a match for Shangguan Yu. However, Nie Zhen's awe-inspiring appearance before, and his heroic fighting against Thousand Degrees Fire God, had left a deep impression on Lin Wuhui.

He didn't know if the heavens were deliberately going against Nie Zhen, or if Lin Wuhui's curse was just too effective, for the second group to actually draw Nie Zhen's name, and Nie Zhen's opponent was the genius disciple of Tianyi Pavilion, Shui Yunshang of Sixth Level of the Heavenly Stage, who was also the only female cultivator who had managed to fight her way into the top sixteen.

Seeing Nie Zhen's name so close to the front, the people from Duobao Sect were all depressed. If Nie Zhen's name was placed in the seventh and eighth group, they might even have a chance, but Nie Zhen's name was actually written in the second group, which made Zhuo Bufan and the others speechless.

"Hahahaha!" The heavens are truly helping me! Little man Nie Zhen, I told you to act tough again! "Look at the expressions of your teachers, who are eating flies. Let's see how you are going to continue being stubborn when you get eliminated!" Shangguan Yu couldn't help but stand up and laugh, completely ignoring the weird looks from others.

All of the Duobao Sect disciples glared at Shangguan Yu in anger. Even many of the Jiugong Sect and other sect disciples frowned, expressing their dissatisfaction and contempt for Shangguan Yu's actions.

You still have the face to say that Wu Tie is pretentious, but the most arrogant person here is you, Shangguan Yu.2

After the list was drawn, the Round of 16 officially began. The first match was between Zeng Jue and Qin Wuyan.

Qin Wuyan knew that he was no match for Zeng Jue. Even though there was only a 1 level difference between the two, there was still a large distance between them.

Qin Wuyan's plan was to fight in a guerrilla battle to buy as much time as possible for Nie Zhen, because Qin Wuyan knew that the longer he dragged it out, the greater the chance Nie Zhen would come to compete.

Therefore, Qin Wuyan had performed his movement technique to avoid Zeng Jue's attacks right from the start of the match. He wandered around the arena and didn't want to fight head on with Zeng Jue.

Seeing Qin Wuyan's actions, Zeng Jue immediately knew Qin Wuyan's goal. If it was another Jiugong Sect disciple, then maybe he would cooperate with Qin Wuyan. After all, Nie Zhen was also there to save the Jiugong Sect disciples.

Unfortunately, what Qin Wuyan met was the narrowest of all, Zeng Jue. Zeng Jue couldn't wait for Nie Zhen to be eliminated, so he gave it his all to quickly end the match with Qin Wuyan!

Chen Sui and Zhou Tie quickly rushed to the secret room. Seeing Lei Yan and the others standing at the door, Chen Sui and Zhou Tie first bowed to Thunder Sovereign and Sovereign Mu Yan, then asked, "What's the situation like?"

Lei Yan looked at the two of them and said, "Brother Nie is still in the secret room. This secret room is very hidden. We don't know what stage it is inside. How is it outside?"

"Brother Nie's luck is really bad, he's drawn into the second group, and now that the first group has reached the critical point, it's Zeng Jue versus Senior Brother Qin of Duobao Sect. Because of Zeng Jue's personal grudge with Brother Nie, he wants to end the match quickly and force Brother Nie to be eliminated from the competition."

"Pfft!" This Zeng Jue is really not a good person! " Lei Yan spat and cursed Zeng Jue repeatedly for not being a good person.

"Senior Brother Qin can't possibly be a match for Zeng Jue. I estimate that it will at most be thirty rounds. If Brother Nie still doesn't come out after thirty rounds, I'm afraid..." Chen Sui's estimation was already very conservative. Although Zeng Jue's character was poor, he still had a few tricks up his sleeve. If Qin Wuyan could really withstand thirty rounds, that would already be quite impressive.

In fact, by the time Chen Sui found Lei Yan, Qin Wuyan had already reached his limit and was completely suppressed by Sun Tie. In three more rounds, Qin Wuyan would be defeated by Zeng Jue.

Boom!

There was only a loud sound on the stage. Qin Wuyan finally could not hold on and was defeated by Zeng Jue.

"Cough cough …" Junior Brother Nie... "Brother, I can only hang on up till this point …" Qin Wuyan was very depressed, in the end, he was unable to procrastinate for Nie Zhen.

"The match is over, the second match, quick!" Origin Sect Second Sect Master Hsu Wei said excitedly.

Hsu Wei's way of eating was too unsightly. Everyone present could see through their intentions.

Although they were not satisfied with Origin Sect, rules were rules. Even people with Duobao Sect had no other choice. They could only look at each other in dismay with helpless expressions.

They also knew that Qin Wuyan had tried his best, but who could be more accurate in the matter of refining pills? Even if Nie Zhen was halfway through refining pills, he still wouldn't be able to stop.

At this time, the genius female disciple Shui Yunshang of Tianyi Pavilion had already stepped out of the Lotus Step and into the center of the stage, quietly waiting for her opponent to come.

"Where's Nie Zhen?" No! Since Nie Zhen did not come, then we must follow the rules and disqualify him from the competition! " When Hsu Wei saw that Nie Zhen didn't come out, he was extremely excited. He hurriedly wanted to revoke Nie Zhen's qualification.

Zhuo Bufan and the rest looked at each other with grim eyes. If Nie Zhen didn't show up now, they might really lose their qualifications.
