Pill Tower/Story

== Counterfeit Pills ==
It sells counterfeit pills. LC can tell because of his alchemy pill prowess. He shows Shui Wuhen one of his creations, the Bone Tempering Pill that is just as potent as, if not morse so than the ones sold by the Pill Tower.
The Pill Tower had mostly monopolized the pill market, and the Bone Tempering Pill was one of their most lucrative pills. If Long Chen made the pill formula public, the Pill Tower would definitely launch a harsh attack. It would be impossible for them to let him off.
That is why LC corroborates with Zheng Wenlong to sell the secret recipe via tha Huayun sect as Huayun is the only organization that could rival Pill Tower's monopoly. This was also to undermine the Huo family that had been trying to attack LC since the fight with Huo Wufang in the Jiuli realm.
== Bone Tempering Pills ==
Magnificent Clouds successfully crafts bone tempering pills to cut into Pill Tower's sales. More people began to realize the scam of Pill Tower.
While Zheng Wenlong was excited, the Pill Tower was dumbfounded. This blow was too vicious. The entire cultivation world was shaken.
Even Pill Valley, who kept themselves isolated from mundane affairs, ended up disturbed. When they saw the Bone Tempering Pills the Pill Tower was selling, they were completely infuriated.
When they saw they were selling fake medicine, they immediately started an investigation to find out who did it.
As a result, they realized all three of the Pill Tower’s families had participated in this scheme. For some profit, they had cut the medicinal effect in half.
The extra profit from the fake pills had been divided evenly by the three families. When the investigators from the Pill Valley found out, they almost blew up with rage.
However, the three families truly did have their own methods. They ended up giving those investigators an irresistible sum of money so that they would say some kind words on their behalf.
In the end, to dissuade the world’s suspicions, the Pill Tower announced that they were completely committed to the development and refining of medicinal pills, and that it was impossible for them to sell fakes.
As for the problem of the medicinal effect, the Pill Tower’s explanation was that there had been a small problem with the new formula they had developed which had caused the medicinal effect to drop.
To express their sincerity, they announced that the Bone Tempering Pills they were now selling were one hundred percent the genuine product, and for their old buyers, they offered a twenty percent discount.
In a show of their determination to fix things, they had even thrown millions of the defective Bone Tempering Pills into the garbage.
However, doing this was still too late. The Huayun Sect had long since expected that reaction, and so their long-term contracts with those sects were extremely profitable.
Furthermore, that contract clearly stated that if they wanted to back out, they would lose their down payment. That tightly bound countless sects to the Huayun Sect.
Let alone a twenty percent discount, even a forty percent discount wouldn’t be able to pull those sects back. If they did, they would end up losing a fortune.
Furthermore, there were also many people who had long since grown tired of the Pill Tower’s arrogance. Even when buying pills from them, when giving them their money, they still had to act so subserviently.
When compared to how courteous the Huayun Sect was, how they never put on airs no matter what their cultivation base was, they felt much more comfortable with them.
The Pill Tower was completely dejected, and yet they were unwilling to end things here. They actually made a new announcement: a few days ago, the formula for the Bone Tempering Pill had been stolen. They were clearly implying it was done by the Huayun Sect.
The Huayun Sect’s reply was extremely direct: if someone stole the pill formula from you, wouldn’t they be refining the same fake medicine as you? You should think before you speak.
== Chaos Region ==
They collude with Zhou Qingyi and Zhou Kun to attack LC in the Chaos Region. They fail.
== Pill Yang ==
At the beginning of Volume 6, Long Chen, Fang Chang, Chai Liehuo save Hua Biluo from marrying Huo Wufang. They also destroy Pill Tower's Huo Family.
=== Huo family crisis ===
The Huo family has scammed for years. Through selling medicinal pills, they secretly pocketed endless profit. Their financial accounts never add up. But that huge wealth has become their greatest weapon. Furthermore, the Huo family has people in Pill Valley. Last time, even the matter of them selling fake pills was suppressed by them, so you can see how much influence they have.
Last time, the matter of the fake Bone Forging Pills had initially caused huge waves, and the main offender was the Huo family. But the Huo family’s abilities were truly incredible. Relying on their connections and by paying some money, they managed to settle the matter.
But the matter of the fake pills, as well as the most recent matter of the Meridian Opening Pills being announced by the Huayun Sect, had been grave blows to the Pill Tower. Their profits were rapidly declining.
The Huo family was a bit panicked now. To win the favor of Pill Valley, they had drawn in a large group of alchemy geniuses. They hoped to raise them into amazing alchemists and then send them to Pill Valley. Otherwise, there was danger of them losing their position.
This was a crisis to the Huo family, but it was the best opportunity for the Fang and Chai families. If they could suppress the Huo family this time, then the Huo family would have no geniuses nor money to appease Pill Valley. In this case, it was very likely that Pill Valley might switch them with someone else. And that someone else would most likely be the Fang or Chai family.
== Devil Execution Conference ==
At the end of Volume 6, they show up at the Devil Execution Conference. LC meets Lu Tianhua.
== Eastern Madness ==
The Pill Tower’s destruction shook the Eastern Xuan Region and even the Central Plains as a whole. Long Chen’s name had spread from the Eastern Xuan Region throughout the Martial Heaven Continent.
Pill Valley’s fury erupted. They issued the highest level arrest order, alerting all powers connected to them to hunt down Long Chen. The Righteous path, the Corrupt path, the ancient races, the ancient family alliance, they all responded instantly. Countless powerful existences were mobilized. This time, Long Chen had truly provoked a huge calamity. Destroying the Pill Tower was challenging the giant Pill Valley. Experts from every area were looking for him. 
There was also the fact that Long Chen had priceless treasures in his hands. Both the black saber and the pot were treasures. Anybody who captured him would receive all his treasures besides the black saber. If anyone tried to snatch those treasures away, they would become enemies with Pill Valley. The allure of forming a good relationship with Pill Valley was too strong. 
Furthermore, a favor from Pill Valley was incredibly important. Even if it was a third-rate sect captured LC, this favor would lead them to directly become a supreme sect. As long as Pill Valley didn’t fall, no one would dare to provoke them. With such a promise from Pill Valley, countless powerful experts as well as many old monsters that had been slumbering for many years appeared, searching for Long Chen.
