“Wait!” Gong Wuliang suddenly spoke up.

All eyes turned to him, Fu Haixin wore a hint of impatience on her face, curious as to why he suddenly decided to interrupt.

“What advice does Palace Master Gong have?” Han Luoyun asked.

Gong Wuliang said solemnly, “Before the competition begins, I hope Sect Master Han will sign a written agreement. Otherwise, what would happen if you refuse to acknowledge your loss? Our Ten-thousand Medicine Sect is not as powerful as your Purple Mist Sect, it’s only natural that we take precautionary measures.”

So that was it. Han Luoyun smiled slightly, signed the agreement immediately, and handed a copy to Gong Wuliang.

With the agreement in his possession, Gong Wuliang was finally able to relax. If the Purple Mist Sect were to deny their loss, he could take the agreement to the Pill Alliance and have them mediate.

“Alright, let’s not waste any more time, let’s get started.” Fu Haixin urged.

Twin Pill Furnaces were brought forward, both identical. The representatives of the Ten-thousand Medicine Sect thoroughly examined them, finding no issues.

Both Fang Lin and Fu Haixin began to write their Pill Formulas.

In no time, they had written their respective formulas and exchanged them.

Fang Lin glanced at Fu Haixin’s formula, surprise evident on his face.

“This Fu Haixin is quite skilled, she even knows such an uncommon formula. Is she trying to make me look like a fool?” Fang Lin thought.

If it had been any ordinary Three Cauldron Pill Refiner looking at Fu Haixin’s formula, they would likely have been stumped. This was because the formula she used detailed a rather obscure Pill Refining method, one which few people knew how to utilize.

The pill was known as the Controlling People Pill. Once taken, it allowed the user to control someone’s actions for a short period, make them do as the user commanded.

Not many knew how to utilize the formula for the Controlling People Pill. At least, Fang Lin hadn’t spotted it in the first level of Pill Sect’s Pill Formula Hall.

Perhaps it was stored in a higher level of the Pill Formula Hall, or maybe not at all.

The Controlling People Pill was notoriously difficult to refine. Among three-grade pills, its difficulty was known to be particularly high. Many pill refiners listed it as one of their least preferred three-grade pills to refine.

Beyond being a obscure and difficult formula, the refining process for the Controlling People Pill was also complex and time-consuming. Without vast experience and adept skills, the success rate was incredibly low.

In Fang Lin’s previous life, the Controlling People Pill was highly sought after because of its potent effects. It was often used for nefarious purposes.

Beyond the Controlling People Pill, there existed even more formidable pills like the Heart Controlling Pill, the Taming God Pill, and others with terrifying effects.

To Fang Lin, the Controlling People Pill was completely beneath his notice.

However, Fu Haixin held Fang Lin’s formula in her hand, her face expressing shock.

Fu Haixin had never seen such a formula. Even after having lived in the Ling Country’s Pill Alliance for many years, and having been exposed to all sorts of bizarre pill formulae, she had never come across one like Fang Lin’s.

What was this formula? The Soul Nourishment Pill? She, Fu Haixin, had lived for over twenty years and had never heard of any Soul Nourishment Pill.

Instantly, Fu Haixin said, “Fang Lin, are you making a fool out of me?”

Everyone was taken aback. What happened to cause Fu Haixin to lose her composure?

Fang Lin wore an innocent look on his face. “How am I making a fool out of you?” he asked.

Looking disgusted, Fu Haixin waved the formula in her hand, “This is just a formula you’ve concocted on your own, it’s impossible to refine!”

Hearing this, members of the Ten-thousand Medicine Sect showed visible dissatisfaction and disdain.

“Heh, is it that Fang Lin was scared of our Sister Fu and deliberately created a fake formula?”

“How ridiculous, he made up a fake formula and Sister Fu saw right through him!”

“I can’t believe Fang Lin would do something like this.”

The members of the Ten-thousand Medicine Sect began to mock him one after the other. Although Gong Wuliang said nothing, he also wore a sneer on his face.

“Fang Lin, how can you commit such a disgraceful act?” Elder Jin stood out, accusing Fang Lin angrily.

The members of the Purple Mist Sect frowned. Although Fang Lin made up a pill formula, which was somewhat improper, Elder Jin, as a member of the Purple Mist Sect, should not have publicly criticized Fang Lin. It made him appear petty and served as a source of amusement for the Ten-thousand Medicine Sect.

Fang Lin shot a disdainful glance at Elder Jin. “Why are you so worked up? I haven’t even spoken yet.”

Elder Jin huffed, “I’d like to see how you plan to explain yourself.”

Han Luoyun also looked somewhat dissatisfied with Elder Jin. Only then did Elder Jin shut up. However, he still wished for Fang Lin to make a fool of himself.

Despite the stakes of the competition – the face of the Purple Mist Sect and the Nine Treasure Luminous Cauldron, were on the line – Elder Jin still wanted to suppress Fang Lin and seize any opportunity he could get.

“Fang Lin, if this is your attitude for our competetion, I see no need to waste time with you,” Fu Haixin, discarding the formula on the ground, said coldly.

Fang Lin frowned slightly. Throwing his formula on the floor was undoubtedly the greatest insult to a Pill Refiner.

“Fu Haixin, it seems this is the extent of your ability, not even knowing the simplest Soul Nourishment Pill. I really wonder what you’ve been doing in the Ling Country all these years,” Fang Lin sneered.

Fu Haixin was instantly enraged, she pointed at Fang Lin and shouted, “You are not even fit to be a Pill Refiner! You lack the courage for a direct confrontation. This Soul Nourishment Pill… it doesn’t even exist!”

Fang Lin scoffed, “You gave me a Controlling People Pill formula, which is an obscure pill, why should I give you a common formula in return? If your knowledge is shallow, stop making baseless claims. How far have you ventured into the path of Alchemy Tao, to dare declare that the Soul Nourishment Pill doesn’t exist?”

Fu Haixin was taken aback but she was still not convinced about the existence of the Soul Nourishment Pill.

“Fu Haixin, want to make a wager?” Fang Lin asked.

Fu Haixin snorted, “What kind of wager?”

Fang Lin smiled, “If I manage to refine your Controlling People Pill and the Soul Nourishment Pill I wrote down, then I win this competition. You stay back and guard the gate for our Purple Mist Sect, how about that?”

The members of the Ten-thousand Medicine Sect were enraged by his words.

Extremely arrogant! He wants Fu Haixin to guard the gates for the Purple Mist Sect? It’s a direct insult to the dignity of the Ten-thousand Medicine Sect!

Fu Haixin was so furious that she turned pale, her chest heaving with anger. But she managed to laugh sarcastically, “Fine! I, Fu Haixin, have never met such an arrogant person, I accept your wager. If you manage to refine both pills, I’ll guard the gate for your Purple Mist Sect, so what?”

Gong Wuliang felt a wave of unease, suspecting something was amiss. Seeing the slight smile on Fang Lin’s face, he suddenly had a bad feeling. Could this be a trap?

“Good, since you’ve agreed, let’s sign an agreement. If I win, you will guard the gate,” Fang Lin said.

Fu Haixin wasn’t a fool. She chuckled coldly, “And what if you lose?
