Chapter 1344: I'm Giving It to You

"Have you heard? The Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion has put out word that they're going to launch a new pill, called... what's it called again?"

"Nourishing Origin Pill!"

"Right, right, right, the Nourishing Origin Pill! Good heavens, it's incredible! I heard the Nourishing Origin Pill's effects are double those of the Augmented Origin Pill!"

"You believe that? Do you think it's like buying cabbages at the market? Do you know what 'double' means?"

"True enough. Probably the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion can't hold out any longer, so they're deliberately creating this hype to attract customers. To be honest, our branch in Guishan City is indeed a bit weak."

"Hmm, but the Wang family's competition with the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion has actually benefited us low-level martial artists. Whether the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion can pull off something impressive, we'll just wait and see."

…

The rumors spread by the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion continued to ferment in Guishan City.

However, most people were not optimistic about the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion.

No one had ever heard of a pill like the Nourishing Origin Pill.

At least, within the entire Wu Meng Royal City, no one had ever heard of such an incredible pill.

Even Yang Rui, when he heard Ye Yuan's words, looked incredulous, let alone ordinary martial artists.

In the Wang family, all the high-ranking members scoffed at the matter.

"Elder Xuan, in your opinion, what are the chances that the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion can actually produce this Nourishing Origin Pill?" Wang Su asked.

Wang Xuanfeng stroked his beard and smiled disdainfully: "In my opinion, not even one percent! The recipe for the Augmented Origin Pill has been circulating in the Tongtian Realm for no less than tens of millions of years and has already been developed to its limit. How could there be a pill stronger than it? Even if that kid truly had heaven-defying abilities and improved the recipe, increasing the effect by half a percent would already be the pinnacle. Double the effect? Hah, nonsense!"

Hearing Wang Xuanfeng's words, the last shred of doubt in everyone's hearts dissipated.

"In that case, the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion has exhausted its tricks?" Wang Yuxiang said.

Wang Xuanfeng smiled: "I think they can't hold on any longer. After all these years, they've probably reached their limit."

Wang Xuanfeng's words made everyone heave a long sigh of relief.

This protracted battle, spanning nearly thirty years, could finally come to an end.

In the end, it would conclude with the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion's defeat.

Wang Yuxiang said joyfully: "Driving out the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion is all thanks to Young Master Su and Elder Xuan! Once the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion leaves, the cultivation resources for Young Master Su and Elder Xuan will be fully covered by the Guishan City branch!"

"Heh, Elder Yuxiang need not be polite. The Guishan City branch and the Mingyang City main family are closely linked, sharing honor and loss." Wang Su said with a faint smile.

Wang Yuxiang felt a slight chill inwardly, secretly marveling at Wang Su's shrewdness.

The words sounded like a refusal, yet also like an acceptance, leaving you puzzled, essentially saying nothing.

But saying nothing was equivalent to saying something.

Competition among the younger generation of the Mingyang City main family was also very fierce.

For Wang Su to stand out, he inevitably needed support from various resources.

Thus, by saying this, he essentially accepted the allegiance of the Guishan City branch.

Wang Yuxiang was also an old fox and naturally understood Wang Su's implication.

"Young Master Su, Elder Xuan, once the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion falls, the Guishan City branch's vendetta can be avenged!" A cold glint flashed in Wang Yuxiang's eyes.

Wang Xuanfeng smiled: "Naturally! That kid is just a guest alchemist. With the two of us here, Yang Rui won't dare to act recklessly."

Once the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion withdrew, Ye Yuan would be like a floating weed without roots.

How to deal with him would be up to others.

The Wang family had two Heaven-Gazing Realm experts; dealing with Ye Yuan would be a piece of cake.

…

Half a month later, Ye Yuan emerged from seclusion.

When Yang Rui saw Ye Yuan, he was startled, looking as if he'd seen a ghost.

"You... how did you break through?"

Half a month ago, Ye Yuan was clearly still far from the mid-Dongxuan stage.

And half a month later, he broke through?

Wasn't this speed a bit too fast?

For ordinary martial artists, progressing from early Dongxuan to mid-Dongxuan would take at least several thousand years.

Even for geniuses with exceptional talent and powerful techniques, aided by a large number of pills, it would take hundreds of years.

Before the previous seclusion, Ye Yuan's cultivation progress hadn't been so astonishing.

But this time, it was a bit too fast.

Breaking through in fifteen days—did he have no bottlenecks at all?

Ye Yuan smiled: "During the last seclusion, I had some insights. This time, I pushed through in one go and broke the bottleneck. Pavilion Master knows that I have not only the Divine Grade Divine Origin Pill but also the Divine Grade Nourishing Origin Pill."

Yang Rui trembled all over and said in surprise: "You really refined the Nourishing Origin Pill?"

Ye Yuan found it amusing: "Did the Pavilion Master really think I was joking? Look!"

A small medicine bottle appeared in Ye Yuan's hand. When opened, the fragrance of the medicine filled the air.

Such abundant medicinal power!

Yang Rui took the pill in surprise and examined it carefully.

From the first glance at the Nourishing Origin Pill, Yang Rui was utterly convinced that the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion would survive!

Although he couldn't judge the potency from its appearance, the abundant medicinal power filled him with confidence.

"Brother, I... may I try it?" Yang Rui asked, slightly excited.

Ye Yuan smiled: "Of course!"

With a hint of trepidation, Yang Rui put the pill into his mouth. As soon as it entered, a surge of immense medicinal power instantly filled his entire body.

He distinctly felt that his divine origin, which had been stagnant for a long time, had actually increased by a trace!

This discovery shocked Yang Rui immensely.

Logically, given his realm, pills of this level should have no effect on him at all.

Even though Ye Yuan claimed this pill was twice as effective as the Augmented Origin Pill.

But that feeling was unmistakable.

His divine origin had truly increased by a trace!

Su Linpu, standing nearby, saw the extremely vivid expression on Yang Rui's face and couldn't help asking: "Pavilion Master, how is it?"

Yang Rui ignored him, instead looking at Ye Yuan with wild joy: "Brother Ye, you're truly incredible! I can say with certainty that once this pill is launched, the entire Tongtian Realm will go crazy for it! This Nourishing Origin Pill truly benefits the low-level martial artists of the entire Tongtian Realm!"

Su Linpu's expression changed, and he was filled with awe.

Yang Rui's words carried immense weight!

Benefiting the entire Tongtian Realm—this showed that the pill was absolutely heaven-defying to the extreme.

This evaluation was too high!

But Ye Yuan smiled and pulled out a jade slip, saying: "This is the recipe for the Nourishing Origin Pill. I'm giving it to the Pavilion Master. Over the years, I have received great kindness from the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion with no way to repay it. Let this recipe be my thanks."

Yang Rui trembled all over and looked at Ye Yuan with extreme doubt: "Brother Ye, you... you're not joking, are you? Do you really not understand the significance of this Nourishing Origin Pill?"

Ye Yuan smiled: "Precisely because I understand, I'm giving it to the Pavilion Master."
