The Great Wild God - Chapter 83

Chapter 83 Self-supporting Portal
Hearing Chen Xun ask why he had placed the burden of Azure Water City on Zong Ya’s shoulders, Zong Tu narrowed his eyes and smiled, “Zong Ya lacks experience in the world. It’s good to give him a burden. Besides, I’m going back to seclusion to cultivate. It’s too hard for the stronghold to rely on Nan Liao alone …”

“Ah!” Chen Xun asked in surprise, “Is Grandpa going to make a breakthrough?”

“It’s hard to say. The soul sea that has been stagnant for many years has changed a bit recently. I wonder if there is a chance for that,” Zong Tu said with a smile. “But when it comes to the soul sea change, apart from consuming the Nine Orifices Nourishing Pill, the main reason is probably because I managed to survive the life and death tribulation after forcefully using the Soul Locking Technique when the wolves attacked the stronghold. The matter of cultivation really needs to be put to death and revived … ”

These were all Grandpa’s cultivation experiences. Chen Xun wanted to break through to the ninth level of the Barbarian realm and advance into the Reincarnation Realm in the future. These experiences were extremely precious.

In the past, he had the experience of squeezing the limits of his physical body to cultivate. He thought that Grandpa would die and be reborn. Perhaps it was really the key to breaking through.

Zong Tu took out a leather bag from his chest and said, “These are thirty Black Python Pills. Keep them first. Everyone has also decided to allocate thirty Black Python Pills for your cultivation every quarter in the future …”

“This absolutely cannot be used!” Chen Xun hurriedly said.

Thirty Black Python Pills in one season, and 120 Black Python Pills in four seasons.

Even in Azure Water City, this was definitely a large sum of money, comparable to the output of the Black Python in the past year.

Now that Chen Xun was cultivating with the Black Python Pill, the effect was already very poor. However, low-grade spirit pills like the Black Python Pill were also hard currency in Azure Water City. They could be used to trade for high-grade spirit pills or other items needed for cultivation.

He wasn’t a member of the Black Python Clan, and Grandpa had always refused to accept him into the clan. He just didn’t want the Black Python to hold him back. He would still have to set up his own clan in the future. How could he allow the Black Python to take out 120 Black Python Pills for him to cultivate every year?

“The stronghold occupies an excellent terrain. After making peace with Montenegro, the valley between the stronghold and Wild Horse Stream will grow enough grain for the tribesmen to eat. Now, we can spare three times as many people to gather herbs and hunt beasts. I have mastered three more pill formulas. Two months after you left, I refined nearly a hundred low-grade spirit pills in the stronghold. After the trade route is cleared, I think that if the nine races can hold together and obtain some rare medicinal herbs, they can go to Azure Water City and obtain them through trade. In the next year, they may be able to refine six or seven hundred spirit pills, “Zong Tu said slowly.” Everyone knows in their hearts that this is all thanks to you. You have to start your own business in the future, but these are your share. If you don’t accept it, the black python will be ungrateful to you … ”

“Grandpa, what are you saying? The Black Python owes me a debt of gratitude. How can this debt of gratitude be counted?” Chen Xun said.

“Ah Xun, you are a loyal and loyal person. Grandpa believes that you will not stand by and watch when the Black Python is in trouble. Therefore, no matter how difficult it is, the Black Python will support you in your cultivation.” Zong Tu said resolutely, “If you don’t accept it, I will rush back with Zong Sang and return the Nine Orifices Nurturing Pills to you. “Everyone knows how precious the Nine Orifices Nourishing Pill is. There are too few black pythons that can return it to you …”

Previously, Zong Tu and the others didn’t know enough about the value of the Nine Orifices Nourishing Pill, but only after learning that Gu Jianfeng had successfully broken through to the peak of the sixth level of the Barbarian realm and advanced to the higher level of the Barbarian realm after consuming the Nine Orifices Nourishing Pill did they realize how precious the value of the Nine Orifices Nourishing Pill was.

Even the direct descendants of the Su Clan only had one chance to consume the Nine Orifices Nourishing Pill every year before advancing to the Reincarnation Realm.

Seeing that Grandpa was so loyal and sincere, and that the stronghold could barely pull out so many extra Black Python Pills, Chen Xun no longer refused.

Chen Xun was now more and more aware of the importance of backing sects and aristocratic forces, and how difficult it was for rogue cultivators to cultivate.

Not to mention the secret of profound arts, not to mention the need for a peaceful and safe environment for cultivation. Whether it was martial cultivators or True Yang Qi Refiners, if they wanted to advance into the Reincarnation Realm, the amount of pills needed to cultivate before and after was absolutely astronomical.

After the entrance ceremony, Chen Xun spent more than a month cultivating in seclusion and comprehending the Fierce Frost Saber Technique. It consumed very little energy, but he still needed to continue refining his qi and blood. He wanted to break through to the seventh level of the Blood Transformation Realm. The only six Nine Orifice Nourishing Pills and a bottle of Origin Gathering Paste in his hand were enough for him to cultivate for two to three months.

In the past, he had always gathered medicinal herbs and refined medicinal pills himself.

In the early stages of cultivation, there was no problem with this method.

In the wilderness of Python Fang Ridge, there were very few medicinal herbs of the first grade, but low-grade spiritual herbs like Fish Yang Grass were still easy to obtain.

Before the middle stage of the True Yang Realm, Chen Xun was practicing while picking herbs. It was barely enough.

After he entered the seventh level of the Blood Transformation, even if he consumed the Origin Gathering Paste, he would have to consume a higher level of pills to replenish his qi and blood.

A higher grade pill meant a higher grade pill formula, and it also meant that a higher grade spirit herb was needed to combine the pills.

High-grade spiritual herbs usually had a long growth cycle. They needed to grow in places with dense spiritual energy for over a hundred years, or even hundreds of years, before the medicinal properties were sufficient. Naturally, the amount of medicinal herbs was extremely rare.

The Azure Water Spiritual Qi was dense, and it was easy to form spiritual herbs. It was either controlled by the Su Clan and a few powerful clans, or it was an extremely ferocious place. Without a cultivation above the Reincarnation Realm, breaking into it would be courting death.

Chen Xun still wanted to go out of Azure Water City to gather spiritual herbs, and then go back to the city to refine medicinal pills. It would probably be ten or a hundred times more difficult for him to cultivate.

If the Black Python could supply him with 120 Black Python Pills every year, Chen Xun would be able to directly exchange them for higher-grade pills. He would be able to cultivate in peace and strive to break through to the current realm as soon as possible.

His Soul Sea Alien Phase was formed from the six-armed Giant Demon Blood.

Su Tang said that if he wanted to break through the physical barrier and enter the Reincarnation Realm, his physical body would have to be tempered to the point where he could withstand the six-armed Giant Demon Blood. He really didn’t know how many pills he would need to consume and how long it would take for him to break through.

If he was relying solely on himself, Chen Xun didn’t know if he had a chance of breaking through to the Reincarnation Realm in his current life. It was especially important for him to have the tribal forces behind him to support him.

Although he wasn’t a member of the nine races, he also supported the alliance of the nine races.

In the future, even if he set up his own portal, only the people of the nine races could be trusted.

If the nine races were able to gain a firm foothold in Azure Water City, he would definitely be much safer and more reliable to obtain cultivation resources or trade medicinal pills through the nine races than with other powers.

In the future, even if he set up his own gates in Azure Water City, he would still live next to the people of the nine races and rely on each other.

Otherwise, he might not even have a place to cultivate peacefully in Canglan City.

********************

Speaking of cultivation resources, Chen Xun asked Grandpa Zongtu,

“I took one of the three Nine Elements Orifice Nurturing Pills I obtained from Ghost Faction. This Nine Elements Orifice Nurturing Pill is superfluous to me. Can I exchange it with Black Mountain Tribe for some rare medicinal herbs?”

The Nine Elements Orifice Nourishing Pill’s greatest effect was to nourish one’s spirit, to increase the cultivation potential of a barbarian martial artist, and to help a peak sixth layer barbarian martial artist break through smoothly and advance to the seventh layer to exchange blood.

Chen Xun’s Soul Sea Alien Phase was formed from the six-armed Giant Demon Blood.

Chen Xun only hated that his cultivation potential was too great. He didn’t need to increase his cultivation potential. Taking the Nine Orifices Nourishing Pill during cultivation was purely to replenish his qi and blood. Its effect was only equivalent to three to four bottles of Origin Gathering Paste. It was truly a huge waste.

If he took out a Nine Yuan Orifice Nourishing Pill and exchanged it, he might be able to exchange it for twenty to thirty bottles of Origin Gathering Paste.

Everyone in Azure Water City knew that if Chen Xun was expelled from the Academy at the entrance ceremony and sold this Nine Elements Orifice Nurturing Pill to a stranger, the chances of him being eaten black and blue would be extremely high.

The safer thing was to trade some low-grade pills with the trusted Montenegro Tribe.

Zong Tu said, “This is fine.”

The Nine Yuan Orifice Nurturing Pills in their hands would never leak out. However, many people knew that Chen Xun had taken out the extra Nine Yuan Orifice Nurturing Pills from Ghost Faction in exchange for some medicinal herbs or low-grade spirit pills in order to resolve the pressing need. It was still very necessary.

The Black Python’s days this year were much better, but the good days had just begun, so he couldn’t immediately support Chen Xun’s cultivation with over a thousand Black Python Pills.

It was agreed to let Zong Sang and Zong Ya rest first. Chen Xun and Grandpa Zong Tu went to find Gu Jianfeng and the others.

After so many twists and turns, the enmity between Montenegro and the Black Python had completely vanished.

Let alone Gu Hu and Gu Jianfeng, Gu Chen felt guilty when he saw Chen Xun. He personally brought over the chair and stool in panic and asked Zong Tu to sit down and talk to Chen Xun.

After exchanging greetings, Chen Xun, who was sitting on the ground, took out a small box made of black sandalwood from his bosom and explained his purpose.

‘”I have already advanced to the seventh level of the Blood Transformation Realm. Taking the Nine Elements Orifice Nurturing Pill is not very useful to me, and I am even more lacking in other medicinal herbs for my current cultivation. No one in the Dark Python needs this Nine Elements Orifice Nurturing Pill for the time being. I came here to ask, does Black Mountain Tribe need it?”

The black sandalwood box was opened, and the spiritual herbal energy spread out, causing the five people in the room to feel relaxed and happy.

The most precious main ingredient of the Nine Orifices Nourishing Pill was the blood of wild beasts, and it was refined with other precious herbs. The refining principle was a secret that the Su Clan did not pass down.

Gu Hu and the others would never have imagined that Chen Xun would actually know about the refining method from Su Tang, but rare rare treasures such as beast heart blood were not available. Chen Xun had not had the chance to personally refine a batch of Nine Origin Orifice Nourishing Pills.

Gu Jianfeng was able to advance to the upper level of the Barbarian Martial Arts at the age of sixteen, and there was a high possibility of advancing to the Reincarnation Realm in the future. How could Gu Hu not know the value of the Nine Orifices Nourishing Pill?

Now, if he could obtain another Nine Elements Orifice Nourishing Pill, Black Mountain Tribe would be able to cultivate a young expert like Sword Edge. The significance of this was truly extraordinary.

However, Gu Hu was also hesitant. If the other tribes wanted to exchange Su for a Nine Yuan Orifice Nurturing Pill, they would have to pay at least 1,000 to 2,000 low-grade spirit pills, or other goods of equivalent value. Black Mountain Tribe could not afford to take out so many low-grade spirit pills now.

Another reason why the blade of the sword was able to successfully break through during the trial was to consume the Nine Elements Orifice Nourishing Pill that Sect Cliff had given him. This favor had yet to be returned to Chen Xun.
