Jiang Ming began to refine pills.

"The pill I need is simple. It's the Breakthrough Divine Pill. However, it's not easy to refine a perfect Breakthrough Divine Pill. If I want to completely refine the breakthrough divine pill, I need to constantly improve my pill refining techniques."

Thinking of this, Jiang Ming could not help but frown slightly.

Before this, he had been stuck at the level of a mid-grade alchemist.

Even though he had improved his skills to the level of a high-grade alchemist through a large number of failures in order to refine the Breakthrough Divine Pill, he had just entered the realm of a high-grade alchemist.

"If I want to refine a breakthrough divine pill, I need to immerse myself in high-level alchemy for a period of time. However, no one knows what kind of storm will be stirred up in the outside world. I hope that before I advance to the Golden Core Realm, there won't be any trouble."

Immediately after, Jiang Ming devoted himself to refining pills. After an unknown period of time, he suddenly opened his eyes and revealed a look of surprise.

"Good heavens, I was still thinking about how to refine pills before. However, now, I've actually improved my pill refining methods to this level in one go, reaching the so-called Pill Cloud formation stage!"

The Pill Cloud formation stage was not an ordinary thing.

Even among high-grade alchemists, it was very difficult for anyone to form Pill Clouds.

Right now, Jiang Ming was at the stage where the Pill Clouds were about to form. It was precisely this that made Jiang Ming's brain work.

Right now, he was pondering over how to complete the breakthrough and allow his pill refining techniques to reach the limit so that he could produce Pill Clouds. Clearly, this was not a simple matter.

However, it wouldn't be too difficult.

Thinking of this, Jiang Ming could not help but take a deep breath. Then, he tried his best to produce the so-called Pill Clouds.

Days passed just like that.

At this moment, there was a huge uproar in the outside world.

"What did you say? The Black Wind Mountain's treasure vault was robbed, and the person who did it was from the Zhao family?"

Zhao Changan stood up abruptly and stared at the second-in-command of the Black Wind Mountain in front of him.

The latter's expression was quite ugly as he hurriedly said, "Patriarch Zhao, you don't need to be angry. We know that he is not a member of the Zhao family. However, this thief actually had the audacity to pretend to be a member of the Zhao family. I just want to ask you, has there been any Golden Core Realm cultivator who offended the Zhao family recently?"

Zhao Changan narrowed his eyes slightly and said slowly, "Yes, but I don't think they have the guts to do so. However, it's not good. Send someone to capture them first. In short, I'd rather kill a thousand people than let one of them go!"

"Understood!"

This time, everyone rushed ahead, afraid that if they were a little late, something would happen.

Their target was none other than Ning Caichen and the other two thieves.

"Oh my god, is this Ning Caichen really going to die? He had already provoked the Zhao family, and now, he provoked the Li family as well. He simply does not know what's good for him!"

"This guy is simply courting death. Does he really think that he can act recklessly just because he's strong? He had no idea how terrifying and powerful the Zhao family is!"

"Hehe, this time it's not just the Zhao family, but also the Li fantastic. I wonder what Ning Caichen has done to make the two great families so angry that they joined forces to capture him."

Countless people gossiped.

However, there were also people who raised their doubts.

"Why is there a leader of the Black Wind Mountain here? What is the relationship between the Zhao family, the Li family, and the Black Wind Mountain? Why would they rather capture Ning Caichen than pay attention to the bigger hidden danger of the Black Wind Mountain? Don't you think there's a big problem here?"

Someone raised this question.

He was a smart man. However, unfortunately, no one paid attention to him.

There were countless smart people in Jinyuan City. Naturally, they could see that there was something fishy going on.

However, it did not matter!

No matter how smart one was, they could not challenge the might of the Zhao family!

Soon, figures flew out one after another. Their target was the Jinyang Mountain Range.

"I'll go!"

"Wu Hen, this is big! The Zhao family of Jinyuan and the Li family of Yangzhou have sent their experts into the Jinyang Mountain Range to hunt us down!"

Ying Sha's face was filled with panic.

He wanted to run away immediately, but he had to take Mini Bai with him.

He did not care whether the others lived or died.

Wu Hen naturally saw through this and sneered. He said disdainfully, "You have no idea how powerful our master is."

"No matter how powerful he is, he's only at the early stage of the Innate Martial Realm. Even if he breaks through in his immortal cultivation, he'll just be at the Golden Core Realm."

At this moment, Ying Sha was speechless. He kept feeling that Wu Hen was out of his mind.

However, Wu Hen did not care at all. What he believed in was not just Jiang Ming's absolute strength.

He believed in Jiang Ming's wisdom.

He did not believe that Jiang Ming could not guess all of this. Since Jiang Ming dared to enter the cave to refine pills, he must have been prepared.

At the same time, the armies of the Zhao and Li families had arrived, numbering in the tens of thousands, and all of them were at least at the seventh level of the Qi Refinement Realm.

Among them, there were no less than a few hundred people who had reached the Foundation Establishment Realm, and there were also around thirty people who had reached the peak of the Foundation Establishment Realm.

There were even eight Golden Core Realm cultivators, and the two strongest among them were in the middle and late stages of the Golden Core Realm.

It was an extremely powerful lineup!

However, such a powerful lineup that no one dared to look at directly was blocked at this moment.

"Retreat!"

A voice rang out. All the soldiers were startled and immediately looked forward.

A man in green robes stood in front of them.

"Who is that?"

Everyone stared at the mysterious green-robed man with vigilance.

The two experts leading the team were Zhao Yuan and Li Yang. At this moment, their faces were filled with disdain.

"Move aside! Don't interfere with our business, or else you will be destroyed too!"

However, the green-robed man shook his head slightly. He slowly raised his hand and a vast sword Qi swept out, shocking everyone. Countless fallen leaves turned into sharp sword auras and cut down many cultivators from the Zhao and Li families.

"I repeat for the last time, everyone, leave immediately. Otherwise, I'll kill you without mercy!"

The green-robed man's tone was somewhat turbulent, making one shudder.

This was actually a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator!
