Three Sins Against Heaven

As the news of the competition between Ghost Guest and Zhao Wenling to refine second-grade pills spread, it only took a moment for the area outside Dangui Pavilion to be packed with people. Many cultivators even climbed onto nearby buildings, afraid to miss this exciting contest.

Under Amanda Han's direction, all the cultivators from Dangui Pavilion and Fragrance Beauty Tower surrounded Ghost Guest and Zhao Wenling, both to give them enough space to perform and to prevent anyone from interfering with the competition.

Ghost Guest and Zhao Wenling exchanged a glance, simultaneously igniting the furnace and placing the ingredients into the pill furnace.

For the first pill, both chose the easiest second-grade Spirit Gathering Pill.

Zhao Wenling successfully refined the Spirit Gathering Pill after the third batch of ingredients. After a brief rest, he placed the ingredients for the Rejuvenation Pill in front of him and began refining.

The competition was about who could refine the most types of second-grade pills. As long as one pill was successfully refined, they could move on to the next type.

At this moment, Ghost Guest was working on his third batch of ingredients. Distracted by the cheers from the crowd, the ingredients in his furnace turned to ash in an instant.

Ghost Guest adjusted his state, reintroduced the ingredients, and ignored the discussions around him.

Unfortunately, he was a step behind. By the time he refined the second-grade Spirit Gathering Pill with the fifth batch of ingredients, Zhao Wenling's second pill was almost complete.

Although speed wasn't the focus, seeing Zhao Wenling's skillful technique, Ghost Guest felt the pressure.

Zhao Wenling remained composed, paying no attention to Ghost Guest. His masterful alchemy amazed the crowd, and within two hours, he had completed nine types of second-grade pills.
