Although it was very difficult, he was even more reluctant to offend Lin Xuan.

Hesitating for a moment, he bit his teeth: “It’s like this, Senior Brother Lin, as long as you leave a voucher to prove that these Trash Pills were taken away by you…”

“No problem”

Seeing Lin Xuan agree, Jin Tao sighed and quickly took out a Jade slip, Lin Xuan left a mark on with his Spiritual Sense.

Then, Jin Tao personally led the way and brought Lin Xuan to a room on the Second Floor.

He removed the Restriction with the identity card, and opened the door: “Please.”

“Well, Junior Brother Jin, I can go in by myself.”

“Alright!” Jin Tao hesitated for a moment but agreed to Lin Xuan’s request. After all, the other party is a Cultivator of the Foundation Establishment Stage. This type of Trash Pill is useless to him and he certainly won’t take much.

Lin Xuan entered the room himself.

To say that it is a separate room, it’s more suitable to be called a hall. It’s hundreds of square meters, and there are rows of shelves inside, which are placed in a neat order.

On the shelves, there was one white bottle after another, and Lin Xuan took one of them to check.

It’s filled with Trash Pills.

The Trash Pills include two types: Foundation Establishment Pill and Solid Form Origin Pill.

Lin Xuan roughly estimated that there were hundreds of thousands of the two types of Trash Pill, which the Spirit Pill Mountain accumulated for over millennia.

Going deep into the Pill House, Lin Xuan felt a little embarrassed.

If he had the opportunity to come to this place according to his original plan, he would have definitely taken all the Trash Pills, and ran away.

Originally he joined Spirit Pill Mountain with that goal, which means that the drunkard’s intention was not to drink wine but to make plots.

However, Lin Xuan is not willing to do so now.

There are several reasons.

Firstly, Lin Xuan is not a good person. But he’s not bad either, and he doesn’t like to do this kind of thing. Daoist Master Tong Yu has been good to him, so it is somewhat uncomfortable to be this calculating.

Secondly, after entering the Spirit Pill Mountain for half a year, Lin Xuan found that this Sect is actually good. The so-called big tree is good for the cold, for those who are cultivating. Having a sect as a shelter is much safer than being a Rogue Cultivator.

Here, he can cultivate with a clear heart.

At least, Lin Xuan did not intend to leave Spirit Pill Mountain before entering the Core Formation Stage.

In any case, for the Spiritual Pills, he’s determined to stay.

Fortunately, Lin Xuan has thought of a proper idea. Although this method is not a perfect solution, he should be able to successfully find enough Trash Pills.

“Hey, come out”

“Young Master!”

A white light flew out of Lin Xuan’s sleeves and turned into a shadow. Then the shadow became clearer and clearer, and finally, it turned into a young girl with bright teeth.

However, if you look closely, you can see that this beautiful girl has no shadow.

She is not a person. It is a Yin Soul with a certain cultivation base.

The woman’s name is Lin Yue’er, the Ghost Cultivator that signed a master-servant contract with Lin Xuan.

Compared to half a year ago, Lin Yu’s body is even more solidified, since she learned that a Ghost can also achieve Immortal Ascension. She was not lazy, and her innate talent is pretty good. Her cultivation base is now equivalent to a Spirit Condensation middle-stage cultivator.

The stronger the strength of a Ghost Cultivator in a contract with himself, the more helpful it is to him. If it was not necessary, Lin Xuan did not want to bother her cultivation, but now. In order to seek Trash Pills, someone must accompany him to play a show.

Lin Xuan told the little yin ghost about his plan, and Lin Yue naturally agreed.

Lin Xuan took out the Storage Bracelet, threw it in front of him, and then a Secret Art hit it, the Storage Bracelet began to spin, and moments later, a white light was released from the inside.

The white light passed over the rows of wooden shelves. The jade bottles containing Trash Pills were swept away.

Soon, The Trash Pills in the entire room were loaded into the Storage Bracelet, leaving only a few bottles in the corners.

Lin Xuan carefully stowed it, groaned a bit, then shaking his hands, a Secret Art flashes, and he pointed toward the room.

A wonderful thing happened. The wooden shelf, which was already empty, had a bottle on it, exactly the same as the previous Trash Pill.

Soon, the entire room was restored!

This kind of illusion is a type of high-grade Secret Art. It is extremely difficult to cultivate, and Lin Xuan learned it with a lot of effort.

Specifically for the action of today!

Of course, if he leaves it like this, although there is no problem in deceiving Jin Tao for the time being, after the illusion fails, he will still become the biggest suspect after an investigation. Lin Xuan does not want this to happen, so he must solve this problem once and for all.

“Hey, are you ready?”

“Mm.”

The little Yin Ghost nodded, and Lin Xuan once again applied the illusion Secret Art on Lin Yue’er.

Suddenly, under the influence of the illusion, the sweet and pleasant Lin Yue’er turned into the image of an evil ghost.

Moreover, the Yin Qi and pressure she excludes is enough to compete with a cultivator of the Foundation Establishment Stage.

After Lin Xuan entered the Pill House, Jin Tao stood at the door waiting.

His eyes flashed with excitement from time to time, although compared to other Sects, members of Spirit Pill Mountain do not have strong cultivation bases, its hierarchy is still strict.

It is one’s technique in Alchemy that determines a person’s status in the Sect.

Jin Tao is only a cultivator of Spirit Condensation mid-stage. He has no special talent in Alchemy. He just entered the Spirit Pill Mountain because of a coincidence. Finally, he was assigned to manage the Trash Pill House.

Which has no future!

If he keeps on doing this, he definitely won’t have any hope in achieving Foundation Establishment, and even if he wants to live a leisure life, it is also a luxury.

Today, however, Lin Xuan came to the Trash Pill House, who is the disciple of Daoist Master Tong Yu and was identified as the next generation Sect Master.

Absolutely one of the most powerful characters of this Sect!

Originally, according to regulations, he should’ve not let Lin Xuan into the Trash Pill House so easily, which violated the rules.

But then, Jin Tao is single-minded, and just wanted to win his support, with it, his position in the sect will improve a lot.

After all, unlike other Sects, Spirit Pill Mountain’s pills are relatively abundant, although his Alchemy talent is average, but his Spirit Root is not too bad. If he can get more Spirit Pills every month, it’s possible that he will succeed in Foundation Establishment.

To Lin Xuan, as long as he is willing to say good things about it, it is entirely possible!

Thinking of the beautiful future, Jin Tao’s face showed a smile…

“Bang!”

Suddenly a loud noise came from behind and interrupted his dream. Jin Tao was shocked and turned his head quickly. Then there was a series of explosions coming into his ears which was mixed with Lin Xuan’s anger.

“What happened?! “

Jin Tao didn’t have time to think about it, and quickly stepped into the Trash Pill House. When he saw it, his face turned pale. He saw an ugly female ghost with a shawl in the room. The female ghost was holding a black flag, which emitted a Demonic Fog.

Numerous Yin Ghosts emerged from the Demon Banner, entangled, and turned into a bloody Skeleton head a few meters high.

Lin Xuan with a dignified face, was using a Secret art, manipulating a Flying Sword and fighting the bloody Skeleton.

From the female ghost, a terrifying pressure was emitted. From the concentration and quality of Yin Qi, it is not inferior to a cultivator of the Foundation Establishment Stage.

Lin Xuan tried his best and gradually lost ground.

In the Trash Pill House, how could there be such a terrifying evil spirit, Jin Tao was puzzled and saw Lin Xuan fighting with the female ghost, as the light flashed, with his own cultivation base, he couldn’t lend a hand.

I didn’t know what to do, but the female ghost found him, and in the hands of Demon Banner, suddenly, countless Demonic Fog gushed out and condensed into a black spear.

“Go!”

The black spear shone like lightning and blasted toward him.

Jin Tao was so frightened that he forgot to evade and did not activate his defensive Barrier. As he was going to be penetrated by the black spear he heard a loud shout: “Junior Brother move!”

Then he felt that he was being pushed, like a few meters away, and the black spear passed by, making him break in a cold sweat.

“Are you ok?”

“Thank you, thank you Senior Brother for saving me!”

Jin Tao looked at Lin Xuan with gratitude, but the other party had a chance in expression: “Not good!”

“What happened?”

Jin Tao followed Lin Xuan’s gaze, only to see the fierce female ghost turning into a dark cloud, flying around the house, and taking all the Trash Pills stored on the shelves, she then flew toward the exit.

“She grabbed the medicine pills.”

Lin Xuan yelled and shouted to chase. In the dark cloud, the female ghost showed her head and spewed a poisonous mist from her mouth. Lin Xuan blocked the attack, taking advantage of this delay, she escaped.

“Senior Brother, are you ok?”

Jin Tao helped Lin Xuan, but did not chase the female ghost, as she’s equivalent to the cultivation base of Foundation Establishment Stage, he would not be able to survive.

Lin Xuan’s expression is a bit pale, full of solemnity, he was silent, seemingly in battle, and after a while, his complexion improved, he went out with Jin Tao to see.

There was no female ghost, the other party had escaped without a trace.
