Chapter 709

Cauldron Spirit's sudden words startled the two brothers.

"This is the most precious treasure in the cauldron. Cauldron Spirit is inside. In the future, you two will be responsible for putting in all kinds of spiritual herbs. As for the refinement, Cauldron Spirit will be in charge," explained Zi Chen.

"Cauldron Spirit? Cauldron Spirit?" The two looked at Zi Chen in puzzlement before turning to Cauldron Spirit in astonishment.

"Senior Cauldron Spirit, please come out and meet us," Zi Chen shouted at Cauldron Spirit.

Soon after, Cauldron Spirit reappeared. Dressed in a long white robe, his hair and beard were all white. He said to Qin Xing and Qin He, "Little ones, the two of you will be following me in the future. If you need to refine any medicinal pellets, just take the corresponding medicinal ingredients. I guarantee that you will receive medicinal pellets until your hands cramp."

Looking at the old man and then at the towering cauldron, the two brothers were speechless. How many medicinal pellets would a cauldron as large as a mountain need to be refined this time?

If it were Blood Origin Pellets, one cauldron would produce at least a thousand, no, five thousand, ten thousand, twenty thousand pellets. To produce so many pellets in one cauldron would indeed be a miracle.

"We will have to trouble Senior to refine the medicinal pellets," said Zi Chen.

"Refining medicinal pellets has always been my duty. These are just minor issues. As long as the earth fire is set up and the materials are brought, we can start at any time," said Cauldron Spirit smilingly. He did not show the seriousness of an elderly person.

Zi Chen nodded and said, "I will leave the materials to Qin Xing and Qin He. Let's refine the medicinal pellets as soon as possible."

Zi Chen then turned to the two brothers and said, "The trade fair will begin in two months. During this time, you must refine as many medicinal pellets as you can. Feel free to take the spiritual herbs and ancient beast blood essences in the treasury."

The two brothers finally recovered from their shock and nodded mechanically.

"Alright, I will leave this place to the two of you. I will come back in two months. Open the formation and send me out," said Zi Chen.

Qin Xing controlled the hand seals and opened a path for Zi Chen. Zi Chen walked out.

As soon as he walked out, he saw Wang Qiong.

Wang Qiong was at the foot of the mountain. When he saw Zi Chen, he asked in confusion, "Why did you activate the defensive formation for no reason?"

Zi Chen smiled and said, "There are things that cannot be revealed to the world. Once the news is leaked, it will bring trouble for no reason. It's better to be cautious."

"What is it?" Wang Qiong asked curiously.

"He's a supreme alchemy treasure I brought out from the Wuji Sect. It's because of him that I dared to promise to give you so many pills at the trade fair," Zi Chen said. "If you're curious, you can go in and take a look. You'll definitely be surprised."

"I'll go another day. This is for you." Wang Qiong took out a token. It was the Pavilion Master Token that Zi Chen had given him.

Zi Chen took the token and said, "You've worked hard for so many years."

"This is not only your Heavenly Barbarian Pavilion, but also mine." Wang Qiong smiled.

The two of them walked side by side in silence. After a long time, Zi Chen asked, "Is there still no news from Xian 'er?"

"No." Wang Qiong shook his head.

"Why didn't you stop her when she wanted to leave?"

"I did, but she said that she believed that you were not dead. However, she also expected that you would be very powerful after breaking through. Therefore, she did not want to be a burden to you. She wanted to become stronger and become your capable helper," Wang Qiong said with a low sigh.

"She's so silly. Didn't I become stronger to protect her?" Zi Chen muttered. His bright eyes were absent-minded for once.

That night, Wang Qiong and the others held a celebration for Zi Chen to welcome his return after breaking through. During the banquet, Zi Chen got to know some cultivators who had broken through to the mid-stage Primal Core Realm in the past 85 years.

The banquet ended very late. Vice Pavilion Master Wang Qiong was also drunk that night and was carried away.

Other than that, the other stewards also drank a lot. They all said that the Heavenly Barbarian Pavilion was about to rise with Zi Chen's return.

"You've worked hard all these years." Zi Chen raised his wine cup and toasted everyone.

The next morning, Zi Chen came to the main hall early and sat on the pavilion master's seat.

Not long after, Hei Feng entered the main hall. He wanted to tell Zi Chen in detail about what had happened in the past 85 years, as well as the current situation and changes of the Heavenly Barbarian Pavilion. Wang Qiong was supposed to tell him, but the latter had drunk too much yesterday and was still unconscious.

Many things had happened in the past 85 years. If he had to tell them in detail, he would not be able to finish it in a few months. Therefore, Hei Feng chose the main points and gave a rough summary.

"All these years, we have been cultivating Primordial Core cultivators. Currently, our Heavenly Barbarian Pavilion has more than 855 early-stage Primordial Core cultivators. All of them have withstood the Heavenly Lightning Tribulation on their own, and all of them have been given elixir weapons. There are also more than 75 mid-stage Primordial Core cultivators, and all of them have been given Good Grade elixir weapons. As for late-stage Primordial Core cultivators, no one has broken through yet.

Generally speaking, the Heavenly Barbarian Pavilion had been developing in a good direction for the past 85 years. In the entire Chaotic Lands, the Heavenly Barbarian Pavilion was definitely ranked among the top. However, there were not enough powerhouses in the pavilion, and Tyrant and the others had left one after another. They could not be used as a deterrent. However, in the past 85 years, other than the Qin family, Wang Qiong had handled everything well.

Wang Qiong had contributed a lot to the Heavenly Barbarian Pavilion's success today. Now that Zi Chen had returned, he represented the return of a powerhouse. He alone was enough to fight against many Inner Core cultivators in the late stage. Therefore, the Heavenly Barbarian Pavilion was about to rise.

Hei Feng picked out the main points of what had happened in the past 85 years and spoke for a full four hours.

"Conflicts between forces?" Zi Chen frowned slightly when he heard this.

"Yes. In the past few years, many forces have been intentionally or unintentionally targeting the Heavenly Barbarian Pavilion. There have also been many conflicts in the open and in the dark," Hei Feng said.

Zi Chen nodded. Conflicts between forces seemed to be very normal. It was the same for the major forces in the Barbarian Land in the past. It was still the same in the Chaotic Lands. As long as one was in a force, there would definitely be conflicts.

If one wanted to have a higher chance of winning in a conflict, other than being strong, one had to find more allies.

"Looks like it's time to consider this problem," Zi Chen sighed softly.

Four hours later, Hei Feng finished his report and left. Then, Zi Chen also left the main hall.

After walking out of the main hall, he went straight to Ling 'er's residence. It was time to guide Ling' er on the path of cultivation.

Ling 'er's residence was not far from Zi Chen's. Two female cultivators were in charge of her daily life. When they saw Zi Chen, the female cultivators bowed respectfully.

"Where's Ling 'er?" Zi Chen waved his hand and motioned for the two to rise.

"Pavilion Master, Miss Ling 'er is resting in her room."

"It's already so late and she's not up yet?" Zi Chen was a little surprised.

"No, and Miss Ling 'er didn't allow us to disturb her."

"Alright, you may leave." As he spoke, Zi Chen walked towards Ling 'er's room.

It was almost noon, but Ling 'er had not woken up yet. Zi Chen thought that she should be tired. After all, she was just a mortal, but she had followed him so far.

However, as soon as he approached Ling 'er's room, Zi Chen felt a familiar chill spreading out from Ling' er's room. This was a chill that belonged to extreme Yin, and only Zi Chen was able to sense it.

"Could it be that she's tired from the recent journey, and the cold Yin energy has gone berserk again?" Zi Chen's expression changed slightly as he directly entered Ling 'er's room.

At that moment, Ling 'er was lying on the bed. Her face was filled with pain and her lips were pale. There was a faint energy that resembled ice mist surrounding her body. The chill in the room was extremely dense.

As if sensing Zi Chen's arrival, Ling 'er's eyelids moved, but she didn't open her eyes after trying a few times. Furthermore, her mouth trembled, but she couldn't say a word.

"Don't move. Don't be afraid. You'll be fine soon."

Zi Chen stepped forward and pressed one hand on Ling 'er's back. Finally, the extreme Yin energy in his body surged out.

This energy surged into Ling 'er's body and drove the ice-cold aura in Ling' er's body through her narrow meridians. In addition, Zi Chen also mobilized the extreme Yin vitality and circulated it through her body according to the circulation path of the Perfect Body.

With the cold Yin energy guided, Ling 'er's cold body slowly returned to normal temperature. The painful expression on her face also slowly weakened.

"Remember the circulation route of this energy. In the future, cultivate according to this route," Zi Chen said.

Ling 'er completely relaxed when she heard that. She tried her best to remember the direction and location of the warm current.

Zi Chen controlled the Extreme Yin energy and slowly circulated it through Ling 'er's meridians. He didn't let Ling' er feel the slightest bit of pain. As it circulated, her meridians slowly expanded. Then, this energy merged into her bones and blood vessels.

Zi Chen didn't allow this energy to enter Ling 'er's dantian. Instead, he allowed it to fuse with her body. This was a true Meridian Changing and Marrow Cleansing. It was a cleansing of the body, creating a more solid foundation for the already talented Ling' er.

After the energy completely fused into her body, two days and two nights had passed. Ling 'er's body emitted a faint glow. She had yet to cultivate, but she already had a foundation that everyone was envious of.

"Alright, put on your clothes. I'll teach you the Extreme Yin Arts now."

Zi Chen stopped and heaved a sigh of relief. After two days of tempering, Ling 'er's future cultivation path would be even smoother.

In addition to the Extreme Yin Arts, Zi Chen also passed on the Perfect Body to Ling 'er. This was because the Perfect Body originally belonged to the Wuji Sect.

After learning the Perfect Body and the Extreme Yin Arts, Ling 'er could be considered to have embarked on the path of cultivation. Her realm also skyrocketed like a geyser.

In just three days, she entered the peak of True Energy Level Five. This speed made Zi Chen sigh in amazement.

Ling 'er's cultivation speed reminded him of himself in the past. Before he obtained Lei Yuan, his cultivation speed was simply terrible.

Zi Chen's time began to repeat. It was monotonous and boring. In the morning, he dealt with the matters of the Heavenly Barbarian Pavilion. After that, he carefully supervised Ling 'er's cultivation and pointed out her shortcomings. As for the afternoon and night, Zi Chen began to cultivate.

After breaking through to the Dan Prime Realm, Zi Chen could already refine the Energy Elemental Core. When he was forming the core, he experienced the Nine Yin Nine Yang Lightning Tribulation. His spiritual sense had transformed and become stronger. Therefore, Zi Chen could refine the Energy Elemental Core without any worries. He wasn't afraid that his spiritual sense wouldn't be able to control the energy.

Unfortunately, the Energy Elemental Core that had the ultimate energy was impure in Zi Chen's eyes. After refining the impurities, there was less than a tenth of the energy left in the Energy Elemental Core.
