Chapter 984

"Move back to the Land of Barbarians? Why?" asked Zi Chen. Everyone's face was filled with puzzlement.

They had established a foothold in the Bedlam and were fully deserving of their title as the number one power in the Bedlam. Moreover, they had many mineral veins and markets in the Bedlam. Their daily income was astronomical. It could be said that they were making a lot of money in the Bedlam. Why would they want to go back?

It must be noted that the Land of Barbarians was extremely desolate. Even though the spiritual energy of heaven and earth had become very rich, mineral veins and the like were still very rare.

Facing everyone's confusion, Zi Chen explained, "Soon, there will be a great battle. We need to return to the Savage Land and guard that place. We need to protect the Savage Land.

"Great war? What great war?"

Zi Chen had mentioned a great war but no one knew what kind of war it was. Furthermore, he mentioned guarding the Land of Barbarians. It was evident that the scale of the war would not be small.

"The war between humans and demons. The alien races have invaded and they have already reached the Ancient Road."

Zi Chen's words caused everyone's expression to change drastically. The invasion of the alien races and the war between humans and demons were obviously very important.

"I estimate that it will take them a long time to break through the Ancient Road. However, there are too many experts among the demon race. We have to make preparations as soon as possible. If the war between humans and demons breaks out, we will have to choose a region to guard. I believe it should be the Land of Barbarians," said Zi Chen.

Everyone knew that the founders of the Heavenly Barbarian Pavilion came from the Land of Barbarians. They had no objections to Zi Chen's suggestion. If they really had to guard the Land of Barbarians, they would naturally guard the Land of Barbarians because the people of the Fringe were not worth guarding.

Lv Peng nodded and said, "Alright, I agree. I will return to the Land of Barbarians and look for a place to establish our sect. However, there are some useful things in the Heavenly Barbarian Pavilion that we can move over when the time comes."

Zi Chen waved his hand and said, "There is no hurry. We have not seen each other for many years. Let's have a good gathering."

After that, he looked at the people around him and said, "All the resources of the Heavenly Barbarian Pavilion, as well as all the subordinates of the forces, will be celebrated for three days. After three days, everyone will work hard. Send out all the people you can and gather resources as quickly as possible."

The crowd nodded again and dispersed.

Ling'er accompanied Bing'er while Zi Chen went to Cauldron Spirit's residence. When Zi Chen saw Cauldron Spirit on the mountain peak, he stepped forward and greeted him.

"Yes, you are back," Cauldron Spirit nodded.

"Senior, we plan to move back, abolish the Heavenly Barbarian Pavilion, and establish the Wuji Sect," Zi Chen said directly.

"Oh? Did something happen?" Cauldron Spirit looked at Zi Chen in surprise.

"Senior, why do you ask?"

"If you didn't have any urgent matters to attend to, you could have gone back and established a Everlasting Sect on your own instead of moving the Heavenly Barbarian Pavilion back. Relocating a sect is a huge undertaking. The manpower, material resources, and financial resources required would all be enormous. Moreover, you had to move back to such a rundown place. What else could it be other than trouble?" Cauldron Spirit groaned.

Zi Chen was secretly impressed by Cauldron Spirit's shrewdness. He immediately told Cauldron Spirit about the invasion.

"Alien invasion," Cauldron Spirit's eyes glinted.

"Do you have any suggestions, senior?" Zi Chen asked modestly.

Cauldron Spirit did not answer. Instead, he looked at Zi Chen. When he saw that Zi Chen had goosebumps, he grinned and said, "Kid, you are much better than I had imagined. Instead of thinking about how to protect yourself, you are thinking about how to protect the barbarian land. Just this responsibility alone is far greater than that little Wuji from back then."

Seeing the puzzled look on Zi Chen's face, Cauldron Spirit explained, "That little Wuji was the one who caused the destruction of the Wuji Sect. He was the Sect Master of the Wuji Sect."

"Senior, you must be joking. I am merely at the Mortal Origin Realm. How can I be compared to the Sect Master of the Wuji Sect?"

Cauldron Spirit said, "Indeed, the two of you cannot be compared to each other because he is too selfish. He is not worthy of being compared to you."

Cauldron Spirit's voice was cold and detached. It was obvious that he was still brooding over what happened back then.

"Senior, the Lightning Divine Temple has appeared again," Zi Chen said cautiously.

A trace of ridicule flashed across Cauldron Spirit's eyes as he said, "That evil bastard has appeared again. The Demonic Race is invading again. Haha, chaos is upon us."

The Demonic Race had invaded with numerous experts. Moreover, Zi Chen had personally fought against the Demonic Race on the Ancient Road. If an ordinary human cultivator were to fight against an ordinary Demonic Race, death would be the only outcome. In a one-on-one battle, the human race would be at a disadvantage.

Naturally, Zi Chen did not care about the fate of the common people. All he cared about was protecting his own land. With a flash of brilliance in his hand, the Mortal Origin Fruit appeared. He held the Mortal Origin Fruit and said, "Senior, this is the Mortal Origin Fruit. I wonder if senior can refine some medicinal pellets that are on par with the Mortal Origin Fruit?"

A trace of surprise flashed across Cauldron Spirit's face when he saw the Mortal Origin Fruit. Obviously, he had seen it before. He took the Mortal Origin Fruit and carefully observed it. After a short while, he shook his head and said, "This fruit contains the energy of the natural laws. I cannot refine something that is exactly the same as the Mortal Origin Fruit."

Zi Chen's eyes lit up upon hearing those words. He asked, "Then senior means that you can refine something with the same effect as the Mortal Origin Fruit."

Cauldron Spirit took a glance at Zi Chen and said, "The Human Origin Realm is, after all, still within the realm of humans. At this realm, one can still consume medicinal pellets. The Mortal Origin Fruit is a miraculous fruit that contains the energy of natural laws. This energy of natural laws is of great use to cultivators. Even if I have the ability to reach the Human Origin Realm, not everyone needs the energy of natural laws. Everyone has some of the energy of natural laws in their body. Although I can't replicate the Mortal Origin Fruit, I can still refine some Mortal Origin Pellets."

I can refine the Mortal Origin Fruit. "Zi Chen was very surprised by this result. However, he did not let his excitement get to his head. Instead, he asked," There should be side effects, right? "

Cauldron Spirit nodded and said, "Of course. If one is unable to reach the Earthly Origin Realm for the rest of his life, and if one lacks the ability to comprehend nature, it will affect one's potential. To be exact, the probability of making another breakthrough is less than fifty percent."

In Zi Chen's opinion, this side effect was not a big deal. After all, there were too many people in this world who were stuck at the Mortal Origin Realm. As long as one could reach the Mortal Origin Realm, they would be able to make another breakthrough for the rest of their lives.

It was just like how Yu Kong was willing to reach the Dan Origin Realm and never make a breakthrough for the rest of his life.

"May I know what materials and main ingredients are required to refine this Mortal Origin Pill?" asked Zi Chen after putting away the Mortal Origin Fruit.

"Only one main ingredient is required, and that is the Yuan Core of a Mortal Origin Realm expert. As for the other ingredients, they are relatively easy to find."

Zi Chen had killed many Mortal Origin Realm experts and possessed quite a number of Yuan Cores. When he heard that the Yuan Core was the Yuan Core, his face was immediately filled with astonishment.

Cauldron Spirit looked at Zi Chen and said, "Not everyone can kill a Mortal Origin Realm expert. Furthermore, as it is an act that defies the natural order, only two Yuan Cores can be successfully refined into a Mortal Origin Pill. The success rate is less than eighty percent. In addition, the success rate of making a breakthrough after consuming the Mortal Origin Pill is also less than eighty percent."

After leaving behind some Yuan Cores, Zi Chen left the place.

This time, he went straight to the mountain peak where the nine Sword Steles were placed. The original Sword Steles were used by Lv Peng as the cornerstone of the defensive formation. After Zi Chen returned and gathered all nine Sword Steles, Lv Peng removed the Sword Steles from the formation.

Lv Peng had been waiting there for a long time. Obviously, he was going to teach Zi Chen the Nine Extremes Formation.

The Nine Extremes Formation represented the nine extremes. It was the best way to control the nine Sword Steles.

Zi Chen walked to the center of the nine Sword Steles. His perfect golden spiritual senses gushed out. Soon after, he formed hand seals and the nine Sword Steles began to vibrate.

A strange look flashed across Lv Peng's eyes. He said, "You know how to control them?"

"I know a little."

At first, Zi Chen was not familiar with the hand seals. As the nine Sword Steles were vibrating, Zi Chen was unable to control them smoothly. But as time passed, Zi Chen's hand seals became faster and faster and he became more proficient in controlling the Sword Steles.

"Boom!"

Finally, with a loud tremor, the Sword Steles rose from the ground. A sharp sword will surged out and swept through the entire Heavenly Barbarian Pavilion.

In the pavilion, many cultivators sensed the sword will and appeared one after another. They looked toward the mountain peak.

Seeing that Zi Chen was familiar with the Nine Extremes Formation so quickly, Lv Peng was shocked.

On the Sword Steles, the sword will surged and an oppressive aura spread. Zi Chen was quietly sensing the Sword Steles. After a while, the powerful aura on the Sword Steles retracted and the Sword Steles slowly fell.

Zi Chen opened his eyes. There was a flash of light in his eyes. "This Sword Steles are indeed good stuff. They are rare treasures. If I can successfully refine them, their power should be even stronger."

Lv Peng looked at Zi Chen and asked, "Do you have a way to refine them?"

Zi Chen said, "I can try."

"There's no need to rush. We'll talk about it after the three days of the celebration." Lv Peng smiled.

The three days of the celebration would naturally start from tomorrow. However, tonight, Lv Peng and the others still held a welcoming ceremony for Zi Chen. Wang Qiong returned the Pavilion Master Zi Chen's Token to Zi Chen. During this period of time, Zi Chen refused, but everyone insisted that Zi Chen keep it.

After that, Zi Chen sent a voice transmission to Lv Peng, asking him to refine a similar token and give it to Wang Qiong.

Of course, the name on the token was no longer Zi Chen, but Wang Qiong.

During the banquet, everyone introduced some core members of the pavilion to Zi Chen. They were also veterans, but they were all strangers. They had only joined the Heavenly Barbarian Pavilion in the past hundred years.

Zi Chen, the real Pavilion Lord, had returned, so everyone naturally had to toast him. Even though Zi Chen had developed a good tolerance for alcohol on the ancient road, he couldn't hold up against so many people. Everyone drank one cup after another, and he soon drank too much.

Ling 'er, the female Rakshasa, also drank until her face was red. In the end, she could not handle the alcohol and left the banquet. Bing' er, on the other hand, kept Zi Chen company.

After the banquet ended, Bing 'er helped Zi Chen back to his room. However, when they were outside the room, Zi Chen sent Bing' er back. He had drunk too much and was afraid that he would not be able to control himself and harm this little girl.

Bing 'er pouted, stomped her feet, and left unhappily.

Zi Chen pushed open the door and entered the room. However, the moment he entered, he smelled an extremely pleasant fragrance in the room. This fragrance seemed to have a fatal attraction. It actually made Zi Chen's heart beat faster.

Zi Chen shook his dizzy head. After entering the room, he walked towards the bed. He was happy today and could indulge himself for a day without cultivating.

The curtain beside the bed was drawn. After Zi Chen pulled it open, the fragrance became even stronger. He shook his head again. When he saw that there was nothing on the bed, he fell asleep.
