"The first ingredient, Hundred-Year Earth Essence, has already been found. Now there are two left, Thousand Year Earth Fire Flower and Cold Spirit Marrow." Wei Yang paused in thought.

Conveniently, he could also search along the way for the rare medicinal ingredients needed to balance the Core Soul Marrow.

Since the Pill Realm contained countless natural treasures, he might as well take the chance to see if he could gather them all. If he succeeded, then before leaving the Pill Realm, he might be able to help Xian'er break through her soul into the Spirit Realm.

Having settled his plan, Wei Yang rose into the high skies, then identified the direction of one of the two remaining red circles marked on the map.

Shua!

His figure flickered, transforming into a streak of light that shot forward. The Pill Realm was vast, about one-third the size of the entire Pill Region.

With the endless natural treasures within, aside from the Yao Clan, there was hardly a force on the continent that wouldn't covet it.

Owning such a private dimensional space was equivalent to having an inexhaustible, never-ending treasure house of rare medicinal ingredients.

And from this alone, one could tell just how deep the Pill Tower's foundation ran. This vast minor world by itself already surpassed what most factions could dream of.

At Wei Yang's speed, if he flew at full force, traversing the Pill Realm would take at most a single day and night.

Thus, by afternoon, he had already collected the Thousand Year Earth Fire Flower, and was steadily approaching the final red-marked location on the map: the Myriad Medicine Mountain Range.

Along the way, Wei Yang encountered quite a few other competitors. But upon seeing him, every one of them chose to avoid him from afar.

After all, he had deliberately released a trace of his aura, precisely to prevent unnecessary trouble. A peak Nine-Star Dou Zong was already near the very top level within the Pill Realm.

Few would dare provoke him. As for these people who avoided him, Wei Yang paid them no attention.

Thus, the journey had gone smoothly, aside from a few attacks from magic beasts of notable strength. These beasts, however, left Wei Yang slightly surprised.

He discovered that the magic beasts here, perhaps due to the violent factor in the realm's heaven and earth energy, seemed far more frenzied and savage than those on the Dou Qi Continent. Even their strength was slightly superior.

After a while.

The Myriad Medicine Mountain Range marked on the map finally came into view. The very name already spoke of its extraordinariness.

At this moment, gazing at the towering mountain range before him, Wei Yang couldn't help but feel slightly dazed. The energy here was unbelievably rich!

The mountains stretched like a giant dragon sprawled across the land, winding and coiling. Thick mists hovered in the midair above the range.

But these were not ordinary natural mists—they were condensed from dense heaven and earth energy. Such a vast and winding mountain range, the amount of energy it gathered could only be imagined.

Within the treacherous mountains, beastly roars rang out in waves. Each roar carried a violent, bloodthirsty edge. Suspended in the air at the mountain's edge, Wei Yang stared in shock at the majestic range hidden within the heavy mist.

After a moment.

"What a grand display!" he couldn't help but sigh.

Even without stepping inside, with his sharp soul perception, he could faintly sense that this place was no blessed land. Flipping his hand, he compared with the map again, and the corner of his mouth twitched.

"The last ingredient, Cold Spirit Marrow, is inside this Myriad Medicine Mountain Range. But with such a vast and majestic range, how am I supposed to find it?"

Helplessly shaking his head, he put the map away. As Wei Yang frowned, he suddenly heard waves of noisy human voices coming from not far below. Raising his brow, he descended slowly.

On a hill at the mountain's outer edge, he saw quite a few tents erected. And within them, many figures could be faintly seen moving about.

"Hm? What's going on here, why are all these participants gathered here?" Seeing this, Wei Yang was a little surprised.

You had to know, in other places, whenever participants met, it was either slaughter right on the spot, or they would avoid each other as much as possible to prevent conflict. Even launching a sneak attack in secret wasn't anything rare.

After all, here everyone was a competitor to one another, if there was one less person, then their own chances would rise by a notch.

That was why, for the vast majority of participants, when facing others, they were almost always carrying a mindset of vigilance and ill intent.

But here in the Myriad Medicine Mountain Range, everyone could actually coexist peacefully, even gathering together?

In the original story, many of the minor plot details, he had long forgotten. He only vaguely remembered that this Myriad Medicine Mountain Range seemed to be the place in the Pill Realm where the competition reached its fiercest peak.

That was why, before entering the Pill Realm, he had agreed with Xian'er and the others to meet up here.

After pondering for a moment.

Wei Yang decided to go take a look. His figure moved, landing not far from the hill, then skimmed over at low altitude. Along the way, none of the participants tried to stop him from climbing onto this small hill.

A few people, after glancing at him, simply withdrew their gazes. Landing, Wei Yang slowly walked toward the center of the hill. Not far ahead, he saw a large group of figures gathered together, likely no fewer than a hundred.

Staring at that massive gathering, Wei Yang was slightly stunned, then immediately walked over. He wanted to see what all these participants were gathering here for.

"Everyone, I'm sure on the maps in your hands, this place should also have been circled in red."

"I can tell you, this is the last stop of the Pill Realm, and within the Myriad Medicine Mountain Range, there really is the final type of mission medicinal ingredient you need."

"But you should also be well aware, the things in this mountain range, are not something you can just take because you want to."

Just as Wei Yang curiously walked into the crowd, a voice rang out from within. Looking through the gaps between people, he saw a young figure standing atop a huge boulder.

"Song Qing?"

Wei Yang raised his brow.

For this person, having lived in Holy Pill City for over three years, of course he had heard of him. Reputed to be the youngest Elder of the Pill Tower, Song Qing.

Many people were optimistic, believing Song Qing had a great chance of becoming one of the new generation's Pill Tower Three Giants in the future.

As that thought flashed through his mind, Wei Yang shifted his gaze, and immediately looked to the other side. There, on a green stone, sat a woman in a black dress, her figure extremely enchanting.

Her jade-like hand twirled a strand of hair before her chest, her expression lazy, and her beauty peerless. This woman drew countless heated gazes from those around, all falling upon her.

She could truly be called the type to bring ruin to kingdoms and cities. An existence on the level of a true monster. From one of the Pill Tower's Five Great Clans, Cao Clan, Cao Ying.

"So it seems the reason they're gathering here, is to form teams for the Myriad Medicine Mountain Range?"

Listening for a moment, Wei Yang roughly figured out their intentions, then turned and walked to the side.

His gaze shifted to the vast mountain range hidden under thick mist, mysterious and towering, and he lightly nodded. He could sense there were quite a few formidable magic beasts within this range.

For participants lacking in strength, choosing to enter as a group was the correct choice. With a flip of his hand, he took out three jade tokens and crushed them with force. An invisible ripple silently spread out toward the distance.
