Chapter 1152: Chapter 1130: The Disciple’s Situation - Master and Disciple Conversation!

Concerning the demonic calamities, Xiao Chen also had an understanding. Perhaps because the Demon Clan too often tempted warriors from other tribes to fall into demonhood, they themselves had also fallen into the inescapable bond of uncontrolled desires.

When one advanced to kinghood, if demonic thoughts erupted and proliferated by the thousands, the only outcome would be a death that extinguished one’s Dao.

His trip to the City of All Beings this time was specifically to seek the witch. Now that he ranked among kings, he was indeed qualified to be a controlling figure, intervening in the affairs of the Hundred Clans of Heaven. A Luo Yue witch, alive and even possibly ascending to higher levels within the Martial Realm, served a greater purpose for him.

Hum!

A streak of light shot out from Xiao Chen’s hand and landed in Luo Yue’s grasp.

"This is a Grade Nine Divine Soul Pill. It has the effect of enhancing and stabilizing the spirit, able to suppress the birth of inner demons. It might be of use to you when you’re ascending to kinghood."

"Grade Nine Divine Soul Pill?"

In Luo Yue’s hand appeared a Jade Box, and as she gently raised her eyebrows, her every move exuded temptation, inciting an irresistible compassion.

However, she quickly returned to her usual demeanor. In truth, the Alchemy Path inheritances among the various clans of the All Heavens and Myriads of Realms differed from one another. After developing over endless years, they had gradually become tailored to the martial development of each clan. The types of spiritual pills and methods of alchemy were countless.

Even between different Alchemy Masters, there existed distinct methods and inherited formulas. Only some widely spread basic elixirs were the same. Some ancient alchemy recipes were the closely guarded secrets of powerful factions, not to be lightly revealed even among members of the same clan.

Click!

The Jade Box opened, revealing ten Jade Bottles with a faint, pervasive fragrance.

"There are a total of thirty Grade Nine Divine Soul Pills. If consuming them all can’t fend off your inner demons... "

Xiao Chen’s voice rose again, trailing off with implications, but Luo Yue understood that If thirty spiritual pills could not stop her inner demons, it would signify the end of her martial path.

In fact, Xiao Chen himself wasn’t certain how effective these Grade Nine Divine Soul Pills would be for Luo Yue, which is why he had concocted as many as thirty. Even if their efficacy diminished with repeated use, it still provided significant stabilization to the spirit.

He didn’t want to give up on the Luo Yue witch as a chess piece.

It wasn’t that he couldn’t produce better spiritual pills or marvelous medicines, but the Pharmacopoeia he inherited was always slightly mismatched with this world. He had been able to concoct improved elixirs with Luli’s help in the past, but as the rank of spiritual pills grew higher, the mixing became increasingly intricate and required thorough research.

But for now, combining the inherited Alchemy Path with the martial ways of the Desolate Land was a task his youngest disciple would fulfill for him in the future.

"Master, if this servant is fortunate enough to survive and reach the Supreme Realm, I wonder what comes next?"

Soon, Luo Yue stored away the Jade Box and asked aloud.

"You are currently the Holy Maiden of the Hundred Desires Dao Palace. Should you ascend to kinghood, your position within the Palace will be solidified, and you will encounter more matters. The numerous maidens of the Hundred Desires Dao Palace are sought after across the All Heavens and Myriads of Realms, and you will naturally learn of some secrets."

Xiao Chen’s voice paused for a moment, then resumed, "You needn’t contact me. If there is a need, I will naturally contact you."

"Yes, Master."

Luo Yue nodded in agreement.

"Very well, your task now is to ascend to the Supreme Realm with a peaceful mind. Only by achieving kinghood can one stand at the pinnacle of one’s clan and observe the fluctuations of heaven and earth."

"Your servant will certainly give it her all."

At these words, Xiao Chen nodded. No one could predict the outcome without truly crossing into the Supreme Realm; one could only give their all.

Seeing that Xiao Chen remained silent for a long time, Luo Yue, who stood behind, hesitated to speak and after a long while withdrew. She left the City of All Beings and headed towards the Sky Domain Continent, choosing not to immediately return to the Demon World.

With the Sky Domain Continent currently embroiled in chaos, with half of the forbidden young prodigies from the Hundred Clans having been beheaded by Xiao Chen, pressurized incessantly by the Human Clan, and with the Saint Clan and God Clan in turmoil unspeakable after the fall of Saint One and God Hao Tian, these two clans could no longer afford to send their divine sons and holy sons.

So now, with the remaining figures from the previous great war like the Star Clan’s Light Star Child and the Feather Fairy Clan’s Fairy Cai Yi, Luo Yue’s strength would surely allow her to claim a Jade Chair on the collapsing Mountain of All Heavens.

It took half a year before the Luo Yue witch finally returned to the Demon Clan’s Hundred Desires Dao Palace.

...

Half a month later, Xiao Chen returned to the Gu Yuan Tribe.

"Greetings to Master!"

In the Blue Stone Garden, nine figures stood side by side, bowing deeply to Xiao Chen.

Xiao Chen’s gaze passed over the nine disciples before him, scanning each of their faces, their strengths laid bare in his eyes.

Among the nine disciples, Yun Wei still possessed the most formidable strength, having ascended to the Legendary Realm of the Nine Heavens, her aura growing ever more profound and inscrutable.

In Xiao Chen’s perception, there was a thread of Yun Wei’s aura that seemed to pierce through the sky vault into an unknown time and space.

The eldest disciple, Tian Fang, was in the middle phase of Stage Eight of the Towering Realm, the strongest among the other disciples aside from Yun Wei. His training outside the tribe had transformed him completely.

The third disciple, Jian Jinghong, carried a sword intent that was ever more resonant. The Golden Sword, once a Half King quality weapon, now hung over his shoulder, and his strength had also reached the pinnacle of Stage Seven of the Towering Realm.

The fourth disciple, Xiong Sheng’s physique had grown even more robust, reaching a height of one zhang. The body refining techniques taught by Xiao Chen had led him down his own unique path, and his strength had now reached the early phase of Stage Eight of the Towering Realm.

The fifth disciple, Huang Xiaotian, had yet to take on a proper form, but his strength was at the later phase of Stage Seven of the Towering Realm.

The sixth disciple, Bu Canghai, was becoming more ethereal, slowly unlocking the potential of his innate talent. He had reached the pinnacle of Stage Seven of the Towering Realm.

The seventh disciple, Long Tian, with his increasingly rich dragon bloodline, had an innate pride that declared itself in every aspect of his bearing. Surprisingly, he surpassed the others and ascended to the early phase of Stage Eight of the Towering Realm just a month ago.

The eighth disciple, Kun Peng, who also bore a divine beast bloodline, was no less proud than Long Tian. He, too, had reached the early phase of Stage Eight of the Towering Realm.

The rapid progress of Long Tian and Kun Peng was partly due to their ongoing rivalry. Their struggle had become more concealed, but it seemed as if each harbored an unyielding spirit. The primary reason for their rivalry was the bloodlines they carried.

However, this rivalry proved to be a driving force for their swift advancement in strength.

As for the youngest disciple, Zi Yuan, she was affectionately raised by Xiao Chen since her childhood, doted on by her master and mistress, her senior brothers and sisters, and the entire tribe.

Now a spirited young woman, she was not just the object of attention in the Border Wasteland Region but also coveted by many young warriors from nearby realms and tribes.

Having ascended to a Supreme King, Xiao Chen’s disciples boasted a status that allowed them to traverse freely across the Eastern Wasteland South Region.

But the little girl’s strength was by no means inferior, having now reached the rank of Venerable, and that was with Xiao Chen intentionally holding her back.

In fact, Xiao Chen felt a sense of astonishment towards his nine disciples. It seemed as if the Gu Yuan Tribe’s destiny was too strong. The talents of his nine disciples were not only remarkable in the Eastern Wasteland but also when measured against all five realms of the Human Realm—one in a million.

It was exceedingly unusual to have nine such prodigious talents, each surpassing their tribe, emerge at the same time in the Border Wasteland Region. The size of the region, even if combined, was less than five million li, a mere speck compared to the vast Wilderness.

But this simultaneous emergence of nine talents was extraordinarily abnormal. Xiao Chen, who over the past years hadn’t delved into this, now felt a stronger intuition after ascending to the rank of King.

Seeing Xiao Chen’s eyes sweeping over them, the nine disciples stood somewhat uneasily before him, with the youngest, Zi Yuan, looking at him with timid, wide eyes.

Xiao Chen couldn’t help but smile, which was clear that the little girl had caused some kind of mischief again. In fact, he realized that it had been a long time since he gathered with his disciples.

"Sit down, there’s no need for such formality now. It’s been years since we, master and disciples, have gathered together."

At the sound of Xiao Chen’s voice, his nine disciples breathed a sigh of relief.

"Zi Yuan."

Hearing Xiao Chen’s voice once again, Zi Yuan immediately ducked behind Yun Wei, peeking out at him with her large, blinking eyes.

Clutching Yun Wei’s robe with her little hands, she looked pleadingly at her other senior disciples. This time, however, they all pretended not to see her, leaving the little girl visibly deflated.

Eventually, she stepped out from behind Yun Wei, lowered her head, and timidly said, "Master, Yuan’er knows she was wrong. I shouldn’t have sneaked out."

Looking at the little girl who appeared to be cautious but whose eyes were darting about, Xiao Chen laughed softly, but it was fleeting, and he became serious again.

"Sit down, everyone."

After Xiao Chen spoke the second time, his disciples then sat around him. Seeing her fellow disciples seated, Zi Yuan also stepped forward, but a voice halted her in her tracks the next moment.

"You, stand right there."

Upon hearing this, tears welled up in the little girl’s eyes as her hands fidgeted together uncertainly.

Seeing Xiao Chen like this, the other disciples were about to speak when they were silenced by his stern gaze. Over the years, Xiao Chen had either been in seclusion or away. His oversight had made Zi Yuan increasingly mischievous.

"Our Gu Yuan Tribe has grown too rapidly in recent years, and one could argue that the entire tribe has been built up in a short span of time. In the past few years, I have neglected you somewhat, but your progress has exceeded my expectations."

Xiao Chen said, pausing before continuing, "Now that I have ascended to King, I can protect not only the tribe but also this land. We no longer require such explosive growth. This applies not only to the tribe but also to your strength, which needs time to settle."
