Chapter 716

When Zi Chen was in the late stage of the Flying Void Realm, he needed to swallow a few drops of mid-grade Yuan liquid to recover his Yuan power. Now that he was in the early stage of the Core Realm, his Yuan power was extremely strong. Although it would not be consumed as quickly as before, once it was consumed, he would need a lot of Blood Vitality Pills to recover instantly.

Although Zi Chen had not tested the feeling of recovering after using up all his Yuan power, he thought that he would need at least ten Blood Vitality Pills to recover, which was ten times more than others of the same level. Of course, this was just an estimate. He might need more.

After Qin Xing brought the high-quality Blood Vitality Pills to Zi Chen and explained their effects, he pulled a long face and waited for Zi Chen to punish him. After being with Zi Chen for a long time, he naturally knew Zi Chen's character. It was impossible to punish him, but it was inevitable that he would scold him for such a wasteful act.

This kind of Blood Vitality Pill was expensive to make, but it was almost useless to him. In his eyes, one Blood Vitality Pill could recover his energy. Therefore, this kind of high-quality Blood Vitality Pill was really useless. Even if Zi Chen was special, he could still recover his energy by swallowing a dozen of them at once.

Even if it was just one pill, he would still swallow a dozen pills. Since he was going to swallow them anyway, there was no need for him to swallow the high quality Blood Origin Pill.

Qin Xing lowered his head and waited for Zi Chen to scold him. He did not notice Zi Chen's bright and interested eyes.

"Show me the Blood Vitality Pill."

Zi Chen said. If the effect was as Qin Xing said, then this high-quality Blood Vitality Pill was indeed good for Zi Chen.

Qin Xing did not dare to raise his head. He directly sent a bottle of Blood Vitality Pills to Zi Chen. He opened it and poured out a pill. He released a powerful spiritual sense to check it.

Just by looking at its appearance, this pill was indeed very ordinary. However, under Zi Chen's powerful spiritual sense, he could sense that there was a surge of energy contained within. If this energy was consumed by an ordinary Dan Yuan cultivator, their body would probably explode in an instant.

Zi Chen's face showed a satisfied expression. This pill was indeed made especially for him. He then asked, "How many of these pills were made?"

"I refined 65,308 pills in one furnace. Here is the list of pills I refined."

As he spoke, Qin Xing took out another list. Recorded on it were the various medicinal ingredients required for this pill refinement. There were ancient medicinal ingredients, 65,555-year-old spiritual herbs, several thousand bottles of mid-grade origin liquid, and over 65,555 bottles of low-grade origin liquid.

Zi Chen waved his hand and said, "There's no need to look at the list. Give some of these pills to Elder Gui. He should be able to use them."

Before Qin Xing could reply, Zi Chen continued, "No, no need. Just give me all these Blood Origin Pellets. I will trouble Senior Cauldron Spirit to refine another batch for Elder Gui when I have the time."

Zi Chen didn't think it was a waste of resources and actually wanted to refine another cauldron. This made Qin Xing sigh in relief, but he was also at a loss. He couldn't understand what was so good about this pill that consumed so much energy.

After Qin Xing left, he brought all the high-quality Blood Essence Pills over to Zi Chen.

Half a year had passed since they entered the Ancient Beast Realm. Zi Chen should be preparing for the engagement and betrothal gifts.

The engagement of the Heavenly Barbarian Pavilion's Pavilion Master Zi Chen and Vice Pavilion Master Wang Qiong's wedding was definitely a big event in the Bedlam. Almost every faction was talking about it. They could naturally see that behind the wedding and engagement, there was an alliance between the two parties.

This also meant that the Heavenly Barbarian Pavilion was about to become the sixth overlord faction.

Under Zi Chen's purposeful arrangements, Wang Zhentian, Wang Zhenwei, the Wang Family Ancestor, and the rest of the Wang Family all came to participate in Wang Qiong's wedding ceremony. On the day of the wedding, the Wang Family was the real star.

Apart from that, the Liu Family's Patriarch also came with his disciples to congratulate them. Of course, this time, they also brought alchemy weapons. This time, all of them were high quality alchemy weapons and defensive alchemy weapons. Except for some that were not part of the deal, the rest were all gifts from the Liu Family.

As for the other faction in the Land of Barbarism, the Dan Yang Qin Family, no one came. Firstly, Zi Chen did not inform them. Secondly, Zi Chen had warned the Qin Family not to step into the Heavenly Barbarian Pavilion's territory.

Although there was still a long time before the wedding, the cultivators of the Heavenly Barbarian Pavilion were all busy.

Wang Qiong's wedding was at the Heavenly Barbarian Pavilion, and Zi Chen's engagement was at the Shangguan Family in Chaos City.

Therefore, before that, Zi Chen had to prepare everything and head to Chaos City to hold the engagement ceremony. After Zi Chen's engagement, Wang Qiong's wedding gift would be held at the Heavenly Barbarian Pavilion.

The Ancient Beast Realm was like a primitive forest. The ancient trees were lush and covered the sky. The roots of the trees were like horned dragons, half naked. There were many ancient beasts living here. There were many kinds of powerful ancient beasts. Core essence cultivators from the Land of Chaos were in danger of being annihilated at any time.

Since they had been in this area for more than ten years, it was not uncommon to see a group of Core essence cultivators being annihilated.

"Have you heard? The Heavenly Barbarian Pavilion's Pavilion Master, Zi Chen, suddenly returned after disappearing for thirty years. Not only did he make a breakthrough, but he's also getting engaged to the Shangguan Family's princess, Shangguan Yue'er."

"This news came a few months ago. Not only do we know that Zi Chen is getting engaged to Shangguan Yue'er, but we also know that the Heavenly Barbarian Pavilion's Vice Pavilion Master, Wang Qiong, is getting married to Wu Yu from the Wu Family."

In the Ancient Beast Realm, news about the Heavenly Barbarian Pavilion spread among the cultivators of the Land of Chaos almost every day.

Because of the previous alliance agreement, the Core essence cultivators no longer fought among themselves. Also, because they had discovered that the people from the Land of Chaos were strong and arrogant, they had retreated to the outskirts after losing several times.

Although there were ancient beasts in the outskirts, there were relatively few of them. Therefore, when they had nothing to do, they could only gossip and wait for reinforcements.

As for why they did not go out, it was because there were people from the Overlords guarding the exits. They had to collect tolls, which were ancient beasts. The Overlords could exempt the tolls from the Heavenly Barbarian Pavilion's people, but other forces could not.

However, not all forces were idle. At this moment, there was a team of more than ten Core essence cultivators searching for ancient beasts in this area. The leader was a mid-stage Core essence cultivator. He held a good quality elixir weapon produced by the Liu family. The rest were early-stage Core essence cultivators. They held normal elixir weapons.

In the Ancient Beast Realm, there were many teams like this. However, there was no doubt that a mid-stage Core essence cultivator was the weakest.

Once upon a time, Core essence cultivators were called old monsters. They were extremely strong and could shake the world. However, in the Ancient Beast Realm, such Core essence cultivators were the most ordinary. They could die at any time.

"The rise of the Heavenly Barbarian Pavilion is unstoppable. Now that Zi Chen has made a breakthrough and returned, he has established his position by marrying an Overlord. It's only a matter of time before he becomes an Overlord."

They had already walked more than ten miles but did not find any ancient beasts. Bored, one of the Core essence cultivators spoke. He was still talking about the Heavenly Barbarian Pavilion.

"That's not necessarily true. To become an Overlord, other than having many powerful cultivators, one also needs a strong foundation. The Heavenly Barbarian Pavilion has only been established for more than thirty years. What foundation does it have? If they want to become an Overlord, they still have a long way to go," another Core essence cultivator retorted.

"Old Zhao, you've been in the Ancient Beast Realm for too long. That's why you don't know the news. A few months ago, the Heavenly Barbarian Pavilion held a trade fair. I heard that they took out 655,555 Blood Vitality Pills for us," the Core essence cultivator said.

"What? 655,555 Blood Vitality Pills?" The Core essence cultivator with the surname Zhao widened his eyes.

"Other than the Blood Vitality Pills, they also have other pills of high quality. I heard that they sold more than a hundred Treasure Pills."

The Core essence cultivator paused and said, "The reason why the Heavenly Barbarian Pavilion has not become an Overlord is not because they don't have a foundation. On the contrary, they have a lot of foundation. The only thing they lack is the number of powerful cultivators."

"Powerful cultivators? That's true. The Heavenly Barbarian Pavilion has only been established for more than thirty years. It's not like the other clans that have been around for thousands of years. It's normal that they don't have powerful cultivators."

As the two of them spoke, the others listened quietly. Occasionally, they would chime in. Just like that, they walked forward.

After another ten miles, just when everyone felt that they would not gain anything today, a gust of cold wind suddenly blew. The group of Core essence cultivators could not help but shiver. The leader of the group, a mid-stage Core essence cultivator, even waved his hand to signal for everyone to stop. He looked ahead cautiously.

"Sir, what's going on?"

There was a gust of cold wind here. It was so cold that it made people shudder. There was also a dangerous aura.

"Back, back off."

The mid-stage Core essence cultivator said coldly. Then, he retreated step by step. The others did the same. They were all very cautious.

The gust of cold wind came from ahead. There might be some kind of danger.

However, the group of Core essence cultivators had just retreated for more than ten steps when the gust of cold wind turned into a gust of wind. Leaves and branches flew everywhere. Everyone's robes flapped loudly. Their vision was blocked.

When the gust of wind dissipated, a huge creature appeared in front of them. The moment they saw the creature, everyone's eyes widened. Their eyes were filled with shock.

"Soul-Destroying Leopard." An extremely shocked cry rang out.

The Soul-Destroying Leopard was recognized as one of the strongest ancient beasts in the world of ancient beasts. Not only was it fast, but its attack power was also very strong.

The Soul-Destroying Leopard in front of them was more than ten meters long. Its body was covered with black hair like steel needles. Its limbs were slender but strong. A pair of cold eyes stared at everyone. Its long leopard tail was swinging like a steel whip.

Seeing everyone, the Soul-Destroying Leopard bent its body and leaned back. Its front paws touched the ground as it prepared to attack. As for the other side, the expressions of the Core essence cultivators were also filled with fear.

In this area, countless Core essence cultivators had been killed by the Soul-Destroying Leopard. There were also many Core essence cultivators in the group. If there was no late-stage Core essence cultivator in the group, then no matter how many people there were in the group, they would only be slaughtered when they encountered the Soul-Destroying Leopard.

"You guys go quickly. I'll hold it here."

At the critical moment, the leader of the group spoke. He was decisive. The moment he saw the Soul-Destroying Leopard, he took out a pill and swallowed it. It was a pill that emitted a blood-red light and was filled with a violent aura.

A Blood Explosion Pill.

The moment the Blood Explosion Pill entered his stomach, a violent aura surged from his body. The violent aura spread out. The mid-stage Core essence cultivator had an additional suffocating and dangerous feeling.

At this moment, the Soul-Destroying Leopard launched its attack.

Its attack was relatively simple and straightforward. It just borrowed strength, rushed forward, and attacked with its claws.
