The Great Wild God - Chapter 235
Chapter 235 Return to the Secret Hall
“Yuan Dan!” Zuo Qingmu, Zong Tu, and the others were all shocked. Naturally, they knew that Origin Core was priceless. However, they didn’t expect Chen Xun to take out six Origin Core besides twelve Nine Revolutions Golden Core.
Zuo Qingmu opened the jade pill box and took out the Origin Core to take a closer look. There were faint cloud patterns circulating on the translucent Origin Core, and waves of Spiritual Essence surged within the Origin Core, as if it was about to break through the pill.
After Qing Xuan arrived at the Northern Mountain, she naturally told everyone about the meeting between Chen Xun and her in the Meng Mountain.
Qing Xuan’s aptitude could be said to be one in ten thousand, but breaking through the profound aperture was still very difficult. However, Meng Shan borrowed a Nine Revolutions Golden Pill and a Flaming Sparrow Yuan Pill, yet at the same time he was cleansing and opening up four spiritual veins, his spiritual sea was also at the Spirit Sparrow Alien Phase. It could be seen how precious an Origin Pill was to cultivators.
“What kind of beast pill is this?” Zuo Qingmu’s cultivation was limited, and even though he was a scholar of the heavens, he was still unable to identify the type of desolate beast that formed the Origin Core in his hand.
“This is a Houtian Qi and Blood Origin Pill. It’s a bit weaker than the Xiantian Origin Pill formed by a demonic beast,” Chen Xun explained briefly. “The refining method hasn’t been passed on to the world yet, so we can’t let the news leak out. I think we can use this pill to cultivate to the peak of the early Reincarnation Realm in ten days.”
If Daoist Primordial Core didn’t have any hope of cultivating the Dharma Form, he would suffer the calamity of the Loose Core at the end of his lifespan.
The Origin Core that he had cultivated all his life was closely related to his soul. He had to possess a supreme secret technique to completely cut the Origin Core out of his body while he was meditating and avoid the pain of loose core.
At the same time, these Origin Pills also condensed the essence of the sect’s major powers’ lifetime of cultivation. All of them were sect treasures that were passed down to future generations.
As the leader of the various sects in the Northwest Region, Divine Night Sect naturally had a secret technique called the Restoration Pill Technique, which could prevent Origin Pill Taoist from suffering from loose pills when he was meditating.
Chen Xun actually used himself as a pill furnace and used the Concentration Curse to refine the Demon Fiend. Then, he refined the Qi and Blood Essence and Soul Essence that were truly useful in the Blood Pill into a pure Qi and Blood Essence Pill using the Returning Pill Technique.
Chen Xun’s cultivation was limited. In two years, he had consumed three hundred Blood Pills and only refined ten Qi and Blood Origin Pills.
This matter involved privately refining blood pills and cultivating pill returning techniques. Once it leaked out, let alone Chen Xun being unable to withstand it, Chang Xi would also be heavily punished by the sect.
There were only ten days left. It was too late to refine and open new spiritual veins. However, Zuo Qingmu and the others were able to borrow the Qi and Blood Origin Pills to reach the peak of the early stage of the Reincarnation Realm, and their combat strength was still considerable.
At the critical moment of life and death, there was plenty of divine soul and fate energy in his body, so he could borrow a technique that was several times stronger than normal.
After saying the main points of cultivating the Qi and Blood Essence Pill, Chen Xun took out the Spirit Gathering Mountain and River Formation and three bundles of Green Flame Lotus Arrows from his spatial ring and handed them to Zuo Qingmu and Grandpa Zongtu.
The basic spirit gathering restriction formation was originally created by Zuo Qingmu, and over the past month, Zuo Qingmu and the others had relied on the four pillars of the Mountain River Formation to defend the Black Rock Peak. It would be easy for them to reverse their palms if they refined the Spirit Gathering Mountain River Formation again, and Chen Xun didn’t even need to waste any words.
The Spirit Gathering Mountain River Formation required four experts at or above the Reincarnation Realm to be in charge before it could unleash 100% of its power.
After Zuo Qingmu created the basic spirit gathering restriction formation, he had been busy repairing magical artifacts and building the city stronghold for several years. He didn’t have the energy to continue researching. He hadn’t expected that the spirit gathering restriction Chen Xun had refined was a hundred times more profound than the initial prototype.
As for the Spirit Gathering Restraint, it was directly embedded into the four pillars of the Mountain River Formation, and it was not directly placed on the Spirit Acupoints and Spirit Veins. This also meant that they would be able to grasp a defensive formation that could be moved from now on …
There were a total of 150 Green Flame Lotus Arrows in the three bundles. Tie Xinmei and the others, even if they were only at the Azure Yang Realm, could only cultivate their Spiritual Sense to control talismans. As long as they were skilled in archery, they would be able to unleash their might.
Apart from these, Chen Xun also left behind six small Cosmos Sacks of medicinal pills, magical artifacts, and other consumables.
Chen Xun brought these resources back because he wanted to strengthen the power of the Nine Tribes of the Northern Mountains to protect the Void Origin Secret Palace. He didn’t expect that he would be able to catch up with them this time.
Chen Xun said, “There should be hidden strength behind the Blood Sword Sect. Most likely, there are people from the Mysterious Frost Sect and Mount Yi Sect guarding behind the scenes. I still need to go out. If I can’t return in time, you guys should retreat south first.”
Zong Tu and Zuo Qingmu naturally knew that Chen Xun was going to the Void Origin Secret Hall, while Qianlan and the others thought that Chen Xun was not going back to Canglan alone, and that he was still forcefully reinforcing Chen Xun in the depths of the Wilderness.
**********************
The oil lamp burned until it was beeping. Jiang Bingyun held a scroll and read the scriptures. Two black pythons that she had tamed were coiled outside the stone house. Suddenly, there was a slight turbulence of wind in the isolated cave. The two black pythons stood up vigilantly and would be more than 20 feet tall, like a black tower, making Jiang Bingyun look exquisite and small.
Jiang Bingyun stood up and looked at the tightly shut hall. However, after a long time, no sound came from the hall. Jiang Bingyun sat back down with an indescribable sense of loss.
However, Jiang Bingyun’s heart was in chaos. She picked up the silk manuscript and couldn’t continue reading. Her beautiful eyes stared blankly in the direction of the giant hall. Did Chen Xun come back?
After a while, the Spiritual Qi in the giant cavern started to violently disturb again, and it frantically gathered towards the giant palace. Jiang Bingyun did not know what exactly Chen Xun was doing in the giant palace when he returned.
In the past four days, the giant hall had only stopped breathing in spiritual energy. The giant hall, which had not moved for many years, suddenly opened its door and saw Chen Xun and a black-armored giant walk out of it.
The two black pythons were still fearful of Chen Xun. They swiftly swam out of the stone house and dived into the underground lake water. They stuck their heads out from afar and looked over.
Seeing Chen Xun grow a short moustache every few years, he became even more capable.
The black-robed giant, who stood silently beside him, held a long spear in his hand. Inside his black robe was a complete set of Pagoda Scaled Armor, covering his face tightly. He could not see any skin, nor could he feel any aura of life.
Jiang Bingyun did not know who this person was who followed Chen Xun back to the secret hall. Standing in front of this person with her cultivation, it was as if she was standing in front of an unfathomable mountain. She did not expect Chen Xun to bring this person into such a secret place.
“He’s Old Kui.” Chen Xun said when he saw that Jiang Bingyun’s beautiful eyes were filled with doubt.
He had painstakingly repaired the Star Iron Demon Body, and his fundamental goal was to let Old Kui’s divine soul attach to it, so that he could leave the secret hall and move freely.
Seeing Chen Xun’s intense gaze, Jiang Xingbing felt a slight ripple in her heart. She stood up and said, “It’s been many years since we last saw each other. Everything is fine?”
Chen Xun sized up Jiang Bingyun, whom he hadn’t seen for several years. Perhaps it was because she had been hiding in the cave for a long time, and her plump figure hadn’t changed. However, her charming appearance was like a young girl, as if she was ten years younger than six years ago. If it wasn’t for her delicate facial features, Chen Xun wouldn’t dare believe that this person in front of him was Jiang Bingyun.
“In two days, the Blood Sword Sect will fight to the death with Beishan in Tianma Lake. I’ll come back and get some things,” Chen Xun said. “Are you willing to follow me out?”
“I…” Jiang Bingyun hesitated.
“Follow me out,” Chen Xun said again, not allowing Jiang Bingyun to question him. “I am now a disciple of the Divine Night Sect. After this battle, follow me to Cloud Continent. No one will recognize you.”
“Let me clean up.” In front of Chen Xun, Jiang Bingyun’s temper became increasingly weak. Everything Chen Xun said sounded natural to her, and she was unwilling to resist from the depths of her heart.
********************
Although Ah Qing was wandering in this wasteland, time didn’t wait for anyone. As long as the Blood Sword Sect was properly prepared, it might not be able to keep the ten-day agreement.
After exiting the Void Origin Secret Hall, Chen Xun no longer hid his tracks. He quickly descended south and arrived at the periphery of Little Lonely Peak a day later.
The night was getting dark, and dark clouds covered the earth. It was so dark that there was not a trace of light between heaven and earth.
Little Lonely Peak had previously set up a defensive formation, and Chen Xun had suspected that the Xuanhan Sect and Yishan Sect were hiding behind the scenes.
The Su Clan was on guard against Xuanhan Sect and Yishan Sect, so they sent people to guard the White Wolf River. The Mount Yi Sect and the Mysterious Frost Sect would also be on guard against the possibility that the Su Clan would suddenly interfere in the war between the Northern Mountain and the Blood Sword Sect and send people to guard the Blood Sword Sect behind the scenes.
At this moment, Little Lonely Peak was completely lonely. It was clear that the Blood Sword Sect had launched an attack in advance.
Chen Xun’s Imperial Qi flew past the dark clouds that covered the earth and faced the fierce winds. He saw that the direction of Tianma Lake had long since sunk into a patch of flames. He was nearly two hundred kilometers away, and he could see a small amount of flowing fire shooting into it from Tianma Lake and smashing towards Black Rock Peak …
As soon as Chen Xun landed on the ground, three flowing shadows flew towards him. Each of them held a staff-shaped magic tool and blocked Chen Xun’s group of three. He shouted in a deep voice, “Tonight, the Blood Sword Sect captured the Northern Mountain. Please take a detour, three fellow Daoists …”
“Who are you? Why are you standing in the way of the Blood Sword Sect?” Chen Xun sneered.
“So it’s Fellow Daoist who rushed to rescue Northern Mountain. No wonder he didn’t even dare to show his face. I’m disrespectful!” A man in the middle raised his staff-shaped magic tool and a line of fire shot over.
Jiang Bingyun was afraid that she would meet an old friend. A beast skin mask covered most of her face above the corner of her mouth.
Old Kui’s entire body was covered in thick armor and robes.
Seeing that the three of them were wearing green robes without any signs, Chen Xun was filled with killing intent. He guessed that they should be disciples of Mystical Frost Sect or Mount Yi Sect. He didn’t expect that they would actually dare to directly attack the cultivators who rescued the Northern Mountain. He presumably thought that he could kill them without being discovered by the people of Su. If he killed the three of them, then there wouldn’t be any sequelae.
Chen Xun didn’t have much time to tangle around. Seeing the blazing flames coming, he took out the Heavenly Jun Blazing Sun Shield and rushed forward against the flames.
Before the fire line struck the Blazing Sun Shield, it formed a magma heat flow that swept over Chen Xun’s entire body. Chen Xun was fearless, and the Thunder Meteorite Sword transformed into several sword beams that split apart the magma heat flow and slashed towards the person in front of him.
Jiang Bingyun had lived in seclusion in the underground cave for several years. She didn’t have a single magical artifact with her. She hastily refined an extremely unpleasant Azure Essence Spirit Sword and twisted it to receive the attack from the person on the left.
Old Kui hadn’t fully adapted to the Star Iron Demon’s body, so he raised the spear in his hand and clumsily attacked the person on the right wing.
“Why are there three idiots who overestimate themselves?” The man on the right had a moustache on his lips. Seeing how clumsy the giant man was, he couldn’t help but laugh. His mind rotated and he raised the spirit sword on his back. He charged forward as well, wanting to kill the giant man as quickly as possible …
When Old Kui saw the moustache coming towards him, he only used the simplest and most indifferent technique to stab the man in the chest.
“Such a clumsy spear technique, yet you still want to rescue Beishan?” Seeing that the giant hadn’t even reached the Parataxis realm, the moustache felt a bit imposing as the spear stabbed at him. He thought that this person was most likely relying on his own divine power.
The battles between cultivators were all earth-shattering. What was the use of a mortal’s innate divine power?
The bearded man’s heart was filled with contempt as he slashed out three sword lights. However, there were countless bangs. The gigantic man didn’t have his spear cut off by him as he had imagined. Instead, his dark spear tip pierced through his shield and touched his chest.
The bearded man’s mind rotated extremely fast, activating several spirit shields in time to block the spear. However, even his body, which he thought was powerful, was pierced through like tissue paper.
Kui Long’s right hand trembled, and hundreds of thousands of kilograms of tremendous strength was transmitted to the spear head. The trembling spear head smashed half of his body into a ball of rotten meat and scattered in all directions …
