Chapter 733: Pill of Tribulation_1
An Earth-level Elixir was a treasure beyond estimation, and among these, the Pill of Tribulation was an even rarer and precious elixir. This was mainly due to the rarity of the ingredients required for its concoction, and the alchemy prescription for the Pill of Tribulation was extremely scarce, almost lost to time. The prescription was only recorded in the Supreme Elixir Canon inherited by Su Chengyu.
Even though the concoction of the Pill of Tribulation was difficult and the ingredients hard to find, these were not the main issues. The main issue was this elixir offered little benefits for cultivation, it had a relatively niche use.
It was said that within the far north Dark Sea, there wasn’t just formidable beasts, but also a tribe of aborigines known as the Nether Clan.
Members of Nether Clan rarely left the Dark Sea. They looked different from humans and were far from ordinary, having managed to survive in such harsh environments.
The Nether Clan was formidable, proficient in all sorts of strange and arcane magics that were deadly and could catch one off guard.
Many years ago, the chief of the Nether Clan had led his people out of the Dark Sea and marched through the northern wilderness. They overpowered all opposition, advancing all the way to the Bei Luo Empire.
The Bei Luo Empire could not withstand the onslaught of the Nether Clan. Over a dozen large cities fell quickly, leaving any living creature in their path maddened and controlled, serving as puppet soldiers.
Even the full force of the Bei Luo Empire couldn’t resist them, and they had to turn to Xia Country for help. Seeing the Nether Clan’s unstoppable force and the havoc in its wake, Xia Country acknowledged the principle of ’safety through kinship’ and chose to come to Bei Luo Empire’s aid. They dispatched many powerful warriors, among which were Land Immortals and other great cultivators.
Other countries also lent their aid in this fight, for if the scourge of the Nether Clan was allowed to spread, it would be a global catastrophe.
