Gu Yuan was naturally unaware of what was happening inside the Jade Cauldron Tower behind him, but when he purchased the Spirit Medicine earlier, the middle-aged steward's peculiar gaze did not escape his notice.

Some other people were also nearby observing the commotion.

Gu Yuan knew what these people were thinking.

Nothing more than considering his ideas as unrealistic dreams.

Thinking of starting Alchemy after such a short time of learning.

In fact, it wasn't surprising that these people looked down on Gu Yuan. Normally, for disciples within Medicine King Mountain who wish to learn Alchemy, they would initially assist an Alchemy Master, handling Spirit Medicine, watching the fire, and igniting the fire source, among other tasks.

Generally, after learning for several years or even a decade, and having seen a lot, they would have the opportunity to try their hand at Alchemy themselves.

But how long has Gu Yuan been learning?

Not even half a year, right?

In such a short time, some people might think he hasn't even remembered the names and effects of certain Spirit Medicines.

Let alone trying Alchemy…

However, how would these people know that Gu Yuan had support behind him.

On the suspended Dragon Boat, with the help of a Pill Spirit, just by looking at some basic Alchemy Scriptures, Gu Yuan had gained a deep understanding of Alchemy Technique and grasped the principle that the essence of Alchemy lies in the compatibility of medicinal properties.

After obtaining the "Essentials of the Golden Core," Gu Yuan read it from beginning to end and had many insights.

Some realizations also had a framework to support them.

Thus, Gu Yuan planned to try his hand.

After taking just a few steps on the street, Gu Yuan's face suddenly changed, and he looked up. He saw a giant centipede, hundreds of feet long and vibrant in color, flying overhead outside the Immortal Pavilion City.

Its enormous body, surrounded by a vivid colorful mist, appeared and disappeared intermittently.

"What a huge centipede..."

Gu Yuan stopped in his tracks, somewhat astonished.

This gigantic centipede exuded an extremely terrifying aura. Even within Qiongming Market, Gu Yuan felt a heavy and oppressive feeling.

The impression it gave him was no less than that of the Golden Monkey Demon King.

Furthermore, there were some figures standing on the back of this centipede.

Gu Yuan, with his keen eyesight, sharply noticed that the figures on the centipede's back mostly wore multicolored and vibrant clothing.

They had Spirit Beast Bags hanging from their waists.

Among these people, Gu Yuan saw a familiar figure.

That person's figure was short and stout, wearing a dark green brocade robe, and judging by the age, it was clearly Baochan True Master of the Gu God Sect.

"So it's people from the Gu God Sect..."

Gu Yuan watched the giant centipede as it moved away before finally retracting his gaze.

He was very aware of what these people were up to.

Clearly, like those from Medicine King Mountain a few days ago, they were heading to the outside of the Red Dragon Immortal Palace, preparing to venture inside for a chance at Immortal encounters.

It's indisputable that the Gu God Sect lives up to its reputation as a Major Cultivation Sect on par with Medicine King Mountain. It's uncertain if there are any top-notch cultivators hidden among the people on the centipede's back, but just that vibrant giant centipede alone is a demon comparable to a Yin God Giant.

Well, to be precise, it should be called a Gu Insect.

Yes, even though the centipede just now was appallingly large, in Gu Yuan's view, it was still a Gu Insect.

With this Gu Insect accompanying them, the Gu God Sect's trip is considered halfway assured, as long as they don't act recklessly inside the Red Dragon Immortal Palace, there shouldn't be any major losses.

"Just now, the centipede's shell was vibrantly colored. I'm not sure what exotic variant it is, but it should be similar to a Mountain Guardian Gu of the Gu God Sect… It's much stronger compared to 'A-Wu.' If one could tame such an exotic variant, who knows what kind of Talent it would bestow..."

Gu Yuan's mind started to wander, indulging in wild thoughts.

While walking, he returned to his residence.

After closing the courtyard door, Gu Yuan glanced out through the crack again.

Everywhere within the Jade Bright Immortal Pavilion were Arrays and Restrictions, even the Divine Thought of a Golden Core Great Cultivator would be greatly limited.

However, just now on the street, Gu Yuan clearly felt a sense of being watched.

Although this feeling was somewhat vague, intermittent, and even now Gu Yuan had not discovered any suspicious figures.

Yet Gu Yuan firmly trusted his instincts.

"What's going on?"

Gu Yuan retracted his gaze, touched his chin, his eyes flickering: "It's not been long since the last incident, could it be that someone intends to stir up trouble again now?"

Previously on the suspended Dragon Boat, someone poisoned Gu Yuan, to be precise, by placing Six Muddy Earthy Yin Rotting Immortal Qi into Gu Yuan's medicinal meal.

At the same time, they dispatched an Invisible Yin Demon to hide within Qiu Zhi, scheming against Gu Yuan.

This move was undeniably vicious.

If not for Gu Yuan's extraordinary Cultivation and strength, he might have suffered a great fall, or worse, lost his life.

The mastermind behind the scenes did not succeed then, and it seems they now plan to stir up trouble again.

In any case, Gu Yuan doesn't believe that anyone besides someone within Medicine King Mountain would bear such a grudge against him, going so far as to scheme and assassinate.

Therefore, until now, Gu Yuan still has a question — was the one who plotted against him last time affiliated with the family faction or someone from within the Sect?

Logically, the possibility of the family faction is greater, yet Gu Yuan inexplicably feels that it might be someone from the Sect who covertly acted...

Anyway, since the other party has set their sights on him again, he needs to make some preparations in response.

"Here within the Jade Bright Immortal Pavilion, with the Pavilion's rules in place, no one should be reckless enough to seek death, but I can't possibly stay out here all the time, can I?"

Gu Yuan pondered: "Besides, rather than being passively calculated against, it's better to take the initiative..."

"Moreover, A-Huang, A-Wu, Big Mouth, Ao Da, and the others haven't been seen for some time, right? It might be a good idea to summon them all. If any unexpected situation arises, they can offer some help."

With more thoughts in his mind, Gu Yuan pondered while entering the room.

He retrieved a batch of Spirit Medicine for refining a Jade Essence Pill from his Storage Pouch.

The Jade Essence Pill is a Grain Elixir even stronger than the Yellow Millet Pill, requiring relatively few materials, the main ingredient being a special jade-white rice paste made from Spirit Grain, along with over a dozen other Spirit Medicines.

Gu Yuan sat cross-legged, looking at the Spirit Medicines in front of him, and couldn't help but secretly sigh.

Thinking back, he had to exhaust all means just to find a plant of Spirit Medicine, but now he simply spent some Spirit Stones and easily bought a large quantity.

Not overthinking, Gu Yuan contemplated the various secrets and processes of refining the Jade Essence Pill, and with a wave of his hand, a stream of pure Primordial True Water surged out, engulfing the Spiritual Materials in front of him.

The Primordial True Water is pure and pristine, containing a lively vitality. Under Gu Yuan's control, it transformed into strands of mist, slowly permeating and delicately purifying the impurities within the Spirit Medicine.

This process would naturally be quite difficult for ordinary cultivators, but for Gu Yuan, who possessed the Primordial True Water, it seemed quite manageable.
