Ch 314: Alchemy, Bai Qian’s Ascension Tribulation!
Chen Xuan was shocked by the sheer scale of the Myriad Treasures Pavilion headquarters in Central Plains upon his first arrival!
The Pavilion’s terrifying speed at accumulating spirit stones was especially enviable!
Therefore, Chen Xuan had always wanted to replicate the Myriad Treasures Pavilion model and get a share of the profits.
After rebuilding the Xuannü Dao Sect, integrating the Seven Towers, the Central Plains Scattered Cultivators Alliance, and the Wusheng Assassins’ Alliance, he already had sufficient capital.
Now, the East Sea and the Northern Frontier had also become Chen Xuan’s most solid backing…
This series of advantages combined was enough to stand toe-to-toe with the Myriad Treasures Pavilion!
Now that the Myriad Treasures Pavilion’s Pavilion Master had openly drawn his sword, how could Chen Xuan swallow his anger?
The threat of the Lesser Immortal Realm restarting put considerable pressure on him, so he had to act decisively, striving to accumulate a vast amount of spirit stones and various cultivation resources to prepare for battle!
Zhen Yu’er slightly furrowed her eyebrows, saying worriedly, “Junior Brother Chen, if you do this, you will inevitably completely offend the Myriad Treasures Pavilion! It’s also a huge force… Are you really that short of spirit stones? It’s not necessary to do this, is it?”
She knew a lot about the Myriad Treasures Pavilion, so she didn’t want Chen Xuan to fall out with them.
Chen Xuan frankly said, “Both sides will rely on their own abilities to operate. If the Myriad Treasures Pavilion insists on being enemies with me, then let’s fight! As for spirit stones… I am really in dire need of them!”
He was never a timid person.
For decisions made, there was only one word—go!
The establishment and expansion of the Xuannü Pavilion were related to a continuous source of vast spirit stones, and it was also the most important part of the grand strategy after the Lesser Immortal Realm restarts… Therefore, Chen Xuan had made up his mind!
“In that case, I will help you with all my might! However, you still need to be careful…” Zhen Yu’er advised.
Chen Xuan was spirited, smiling, “Sister Yu’er, I not only have the identity of Pill Venerable, but I’m also quite skilled in refinement, talisman making, etc.?… With so much backing, what can the Myriad Treasures Pavilion do?”
Then, the two left the first floor of the pagoda.
In the ruined mess, Zhen Huang lay there, staring blankly.
“Swish!”
Chen Xuan and Zhen Yu’er appeared out of thin air, hand in hand, like a fairy couple.
“Senior Zhen, for Sister Yu’er’s sake, I will save you this once! Your body-tempering technique is too rigid and excessive, injuring yourself first during tempering… Try comprehending this method!”
As Chen Xuan spoke, he directly transmitted a body-tempering technique from a 《Heavenly Dragon Body Scripture》 using a spiritual fingertip touch.
Zhen Huang’s body trembled!
After a long time, he exclaimed in shock, “Young Master Chen, this 《Myriad Talismans Golden Body Scripture》 is incredibly overbearing and extraordinary! Wonderful! Wonderful! Wonderful!…”
After carefully savoring it, Zhen Huang found that Chen Xuan’s words were true.
His 《Great Strength Mad Demon Fist》 did indeed have some drawbacks and hidden dangers…
“Thank you!”
Zhen Huang spoke solemnly, his eyes filled with admiration.
Chen Xuan waved his hand and smiled, “Senior Zhen, if you want to quickly cultivate the 《Myriad Talismans Golden Body Scripture》, the harmony of Yin and Yang is the most important step! Practicing dual cultivation should be twice the result with half the effort!”
“Oh? Dual cultivation? I’d really like to try that! But Yu’er’s mother is too strong-willed, and thinks I’m too rough…” Zhen Huang said regretfully.
Then, he suddenly realized!
“Young Master Chen, I heard you’re a lustful ghost, very good at being a kept man… you can win women over like a string of pearls! Can you teach your father-in-law?”
Chen Xuan’s mouth twitched, and it felt like ten thousand mud horses were galloping through his heart!
Lustful ghost?
Kept man?
Which bastard is spreading rumors about me?
I, Chen Xuan, am an upright person!
Facing Zhen Huang’s eager gaze, Chen Xuan simply used secret voice transmission to give guidance.
“Senior Zhen, women like to be insincere and make unreasonable demands. You don’t need to get entangled with them, just forcefully push them over and convince them, once, twice, three, four times… day and night, which woman wouldn’t be crazy for it?”
“Oh?”
Zhen Huang’s eyes lit up, carefully savoring the words.
He increasingly felt that Chen Xuan’s words were reasonable, nodding repeatedly.
“I’m off!”…
Zhen Huang laughed and soared into the sky!
He was eager to go home and test it on his wife!
“Junior Brother Chen, what did you tell my father through secret voice transmission? He seems very excited?” Zhen Yu’er curiously asked.
Chen Xuan chuckled, meaningfully saying, “I just told him that love needs great effort to create miracles!”
Time flowed like water.
More than a month later.
A terrifying thundercloud descended over Qingqiu, its momentum vast!
Many demon cultivators nearby were alarmed, discussing, and ultimately judging it to be the Pill Tribulation only a Half-Immortal Pill could bring.
At this moment, in a valley, Chen Xuan was performing the final nurturing of the Star Moon Pill Furnace!
He consumed a total of three Quasi-Heavenly Herbs and invested a large amount of top-grade rare treasures such as the Dao Rhyme Snow Milk Spring, all for the sake of refining three Half-Immortal Pills!
“Boom! Boom! Boom!…”
Countless terrifying thunderbolts of the Pill Tribulation fell, their momentum vast.
Finally.
“Boom!!!”
A seven-colored thunderbolt struck the Star Moon Pill Furnace, turning into wisps of seven-colored thunder light that were absorbed…
The Pill Furnace vibrated, suddenly erupting with seven-colored light!
The thundercloud dissipated.
Chen Xuan waved his hand, and the lid of the Star Moon Pill Furnace opened!
Three dazzling, gem-like seven-colored pills flew out, their bodies smooth and transparent, containing rich immortal aura, and surrounded by heavenly sounds!
Guiyuan Lesser Immortal Pill, a healing-type Half-Immortal Pill!
“Not bad!…”
Chen Xuan smiled slightly, quite satisfied!
He smiled at the Qingqiu people watching, then flashed away, leaving the valley.
That day.
Yuan Bu Er, Yu Meiren, and Xu Yue Scattered Immortal, who had taken the Guiyuan Lesser Immortal Pills, all saw significant improvement in their injuries, no longer needing secluded cultivation and healing.
The large amount of Half-Immortal Pill power that had not yet been refined in their bodies was enough to heal their injuries!
Chen Xuan directly stated his plan.
Yuan Bu Er patted his chest, expressing that he could stay in the Xuannü Pavilion long-term, but wanted a share of the profits!
Yu Meiren had some concerns, but after Chen Xuan explained the advantages and disadvantages, she also readily agreed.
Xu Yue Scattered Immortal was also very direct, saying that they could stay in the Xuannü Pavilion, and also wanted a share of the profits!
Chen Xuan readily agreed.
The four of them also discussed the restarting of the Lesser Immortal Realm, proactively making some grand plans.
Afterwards, Yu Meiren and the other two left Qingqiu and returned to the Xuannü Dao Sect to build the Xuannü Pavilion and create momentum.
Chen Xuan returned to the valley where he refined pills, took out the remaining three Quasi-Heavenly Herbs in the medicine field on the first floor of the pagoda, and began refining Half-Immortal Pills…
To make the Xuannü Pavilion an instant success, Half-Immortal Pills were necessary!
This time, he planned to refine Half-Immortal Pills with miraculous effects on healing and breakthroughs—Nine Turns Lesser Immortal Pills!
Under the heaven-defying pill refining techniques of the 《Heavenly Dragon Pill Scripture》, his pill refining this time was also very smooth.
Chen Xuan once again harvested three Half-Immortal Pills!
One was to repay Qian Yuan Scattered Immortal, fulfilling his promise.
One Chen Xuan planned to use as the highlight of the Xuannü Pavilion’s first auction!
One was kept on his person, for emergencies!
Without Quasi-Heavenly Herbs, Chen Xuan could only refine top-grade treasure pills.
And the one he chose to refine was the Great Nirvana Breakthrough Pill.
This pill’s effect was single but overbearing, able to help break through major cultivation bottlenecks, even having some effect on scattered immortals.
Chen Xuan spent ten days successfully refining twelve!
He prepared to auction three, and give the remaining nine to close people like Du Meng.
After Chen Xuan spent ninety-three days completing his pill refining plan, Bai Qian left seclusion!
On that day, news quickly spread from Qingqiu, shocking the entire Desolate Heaven Domain!
“Three days later, Bai Qian of Qingqiu will cross the Ascension Tribulation atop Wan Ren Mountain in the Northern Frontier, sincerely inviting cultivators from all realms of the Desolate Heaven Domain to witness the ceremony!”
