Chapter 578: Chapter 564: Purple Extreme Heavenly Fire Wants to Take a Disciple! _1
"What grand prestige the Crystal Stone Battle Division has!" Xiao Chen spoke nonchalantly.
As soon as Xiao Chen removed his cover, Tuo Jing Tian immediately recognized him. The green shadow figure evoked in him, an almost vertiginous illusion of looking up at a towering mountain.
He did not expect to meet Xiao Chen here. A few months ago, after a battle in the Desolate Mountain forest, Xiao Chen’s fame skyrocketed, which brought great renown to the Gu Yuan tribe in the Border Wasteland region.
"You actually want to make an enemy of my Crystal Stone Battle Division for a stranger!"
Taking a deep breath, a cold light flashed in Tuo Jing Tian’s eyes again, "Do not delude yourself into thinking that simply because you have formidable backing, you possess the strength to contend with elite tribes. Every elite tribe in the Border Wasteland region has developed its grandeur over countless thousands of years.
"If you want to challenge the authority of my Crystal Stone Battle Division, you still have a way to go. This Terrestrial Array Disk is something that my Crystal Stone Battle Division wants. No one can take it, not even you!"
"However, in consideration of you saving numerous warriors of the Great Wasteland before, my Crystal Stone Battle Division will take only the Terrestrial Attack Array. The remaining life-extending Spirit Medicine, the Real Essence fluid, and the Freezing Weight Water, we will give them to you. Otherwise, things won’t end well today!"
Xiao Chen’s appearance forced Tuo Jing Tian to make concessions. This was largely due to Xiao Chen’s strength. Xiao Chen had miraculously survived an attack from a Venerate-level Ghost tribe member and had even managed to destroy the leader of the Green Wolf clan. This power made Tuo Jing Tian feel apprehensive.
Moreover, Xiao Chen had the mental will of a Venerate-level being. If a fight were to break out, he would undoubtedly be at a disadvantage.
Xiao Chen was unmoved by Tuo Jing Tian’s words. Indifferently, he looked at Tuo Jing Tian again and said, "So it is the Crystal Stone Battle Division you’re depending on?"
"How dare you, Xiao Chen!"
What!
"Is that Xiao Chen?"
Tuo Jing Tian’s roar surprised the warriors around them. A few months ago, a Void Battleship from the Gu Yuan Tribe emerged. During a battle, Xiao Chen killed the old-fashioned Venerate-level being of the Ghost Tribe, the Crimson Flame Ghost Venerable, and even buried dozens of survivors of the Exotic Clan in the Great Wasteland. The names of Xiao Chen and the Gu Yuan Tribe shook the Great Wasteland then.
"Xiao Chen, it is better to resolve grievances constructively rather than let them fester. Your Gu Yuan Tribe Battle Division’s promotion to an elite division is a foregone conclusion. Once this happens, it will be the tenth elite division in my Border Wasteland region. In the future, the connection between our two divisions will become closer. To be honest, your Gu Yuan Tribe has a Heaven Grade Void Battleship and whether you have a Terrestrial Array Disk or not would not really matter. It’s not worth making an enemy of my Crystal Stone Battle Division for a simple Terrestrial Array Disk."
The surrounding warriors were astonished. This was far from the usual style of Tuo Jing Tian, the young clan chief of the Crystal Stone Battle Division. He usually operated by taking by force what he wanted. It was very surprising today that he was speaking so much and seemingly demonstrating weakness.
However, everyone could see it. It was due to his fear of Xiao Chen. In the recent clash, Xiao Chen had merely struck casually, but was capable of repelling Tuo Jing Tian. There was only one explanation, Xiao Chen’s strength surpassed that of Tuo Jing Tian.
"Our Clan Chief is also interested in this Terrestrial Array Disk."
Ignoring Tuo Jing Tian, Xiao Chen calmly predicted that Tuo Jing Tian wouldn’t dare to act rashly here. Once again, he turned his gaze to the little girl.
"Little girl, what’s your name?"
The little girl huddled in Wan Tianxing’s arms seemed a bit scared, apparently startled by the earlier confrontation between Xiao Chen and Tuo Jing Tian.
As his gaze softened a bit, Xiao Chen’s psychic energy slowly permeated the little girl’s mental world. His psychic energy was subtly soothing her timid expression, like a warm spring breeze softly nourishing everything in its path.
A moment later, the little girl’s fear gradually lifted. Having relaxed her initially frightened gaze, she turned in Wan Tianxing’s arms to look up at his face, then smiled sweetly: "Uncle, my name is Zi Yuan. Daddy says it’s the name of a divine bird in ancient myths that could overcome countless calamities to fly into the Sky Vault."
Because of the lack of an elixir essence, the majority of the girl’s blood and flesh essence was absorbed by the Medicine Bone, making her extremely weak. Furthermore, as the Furnace Fire in her marrow continued to grow, she suffered unbearable pain, causing her to endure constant suffering.
Wan Tianxing felt no malice from Xiao Chen, so he didn’t try to stop him.
"Zi Yuan, tell Uncle, do you feel something growing in your bones?"
"How did you know, Uncle!" Xiao Chen’s words immediately brightened the girl’s eyes, though they dimmed just as quickly, "Zi Yuan doesn’t know what’s in my bones, that monster needs to eat a lot of Spirit Medicine. If Daddy can’t prepare the Spirit Medicine for Zi Yuan, the monster in my bones will hurt me."
Xiao Chen understood the girl’s condition. Regarding the Furnace Fire growing in her marrow, Zi Yuan didn’t know about it. In her understanding, it was a monster that tortured her.
The cause of this was not only the lack of a large supply of Spirit Medicine but also the lack of a specific cultivation technique. If Zi Yuan could obtain a top cultivation method for refining Furnace Fire, she could have thoroughly controlled the Furnace Fire growing deep in her marrow and commanded it to grow according to her will from the very beginning.
"Stretch out your hand, so Uncle can see the monster in your body, okay?"
Xiao Chen reached out to the girl. Zi Yuan looked at her father, encouraged by his reassuring gaze, she reached her thin hand towards Xiao Chen.
"Sir, if you can save my daughter, I will give you everything. And, in the future, if there is anything you need me to do, even through fire and water, I am willing to help you pull through!"
At this moment, Wan Tianxing’s face was full of seriousness. Xiao Chen was the first warrior who noticed the underlying problem in Zi Yuan’s body. At this very moment, he strongly hoped that Xiao Chen could cure Zi Yuan’s frailties.
When his daughter was born, there were no signs of illness. But when she was one year old, her body changed completely. It seemed as though her body housed a bottomless pit that consumed a large amount of Spirit Medicine. At first, it was not unbearable as he was able to provide the common Spirit Grass due to his powerful cultivation.
As time passed, his daughter had grown to the size of a six-year-old but the herbs she needed had evolved to the precious five or six-turn Spirit Medicine. Ordinary Spirit Grass could not maintain this for long and even five-turn Spirit Medicine could only last her for a month.
With this in mind, just twelve batches of Level Five Spirit Grass could only sustain Zi Yuan for a year at most. If the supply of Spirit Grass was insufficient, the bottomless pit within her could devour her tiny body completely.
Level Five Spirit Grass isn’t common, not to mention she needs twelve batches per year. Even a highly revered figure would not be able to refine twelve batches of Level Five Spirit Grass in a year, let alone a young girl who consumes them all.
Desperate to understand his daughter’s strange disease, he even intruded into the Bai Ze Marquis Division with her.
To make amends for the intrusion, he knelt outside the mountain city of the Bai Ze Marquis Division for three days and three nights, hoping to entice a Grand Alchemist from the Bai Ze Tribe to appear, but he gained nothing.
That didn’t make him give up, however. He diligently prepared ahead, venturing constantly into dangerous lands and secret realms to search for medicinal herbs and spiritual treasures. The level six Spirit Grass he had obtained today, for instance, was in case the level five Spirit Grass stopped working for his daughter in the future.
He held the young girl’s hand gently. Had she not been in front of him, Xiao Chen might mistake her hand for that of an old woman, dried up, lusterless, with veins visible.
"Tell Uncle if you feel anything unusual, okay?"
"Okay!"
Suddenly, a hint of green Furnace Fire appeared in Xiao Chen’s palm. Resembling a green jade, the Furnace Fire instantly expanded into a little fireball with the wind, enveloping Xiao Chen and Zi Yuan’s hands.
While the flames seemed hot, they didn’t harm the girl. Wan Tianxing, standing aside, watched Xiao Chen intently. He was ready to strike like a bolt of thunder if Xiao Chen made any strange moves.
The green Furnace Fire gradually seeped into Zi Yuan’s arm and infiltrated deeper into her body. In a few moments, all her bones were coated in green flame, which began to permeate her bone marrow.
"Uncle, the monster inside is scared!" Zi Yuan finally spoke, her voice filled with curiosity.
"But it’s hiding, Uncle. Can you pull it out? It’s causing me so much pain."
After an incense stick’s worth of time, the green fire that had entered Zi Yuan’s body began to withdraw like a receding tide. But at the end of the withdrawal, there was a hint of gentle, purple flame.
The purple flame eventually materialized on Zi Yuan’s hand, taking the shape of a nearly translucent Purple Lotus.
"Purple Lotus Spiritual Fire."
Xiao Chen was taken aback at the sight of this flame. No wonder it required high-grade spirit medicine to nourish. The Purple Lotus Spiritual Fire, although weak, was of such high grade.
Xiao Chen’s Green Furnace Fire, achieved through cultivation, had been refined over the years, and finally transformed into a terrestrial furnace flame called "Upper Pure Heart Flame". However, the newly born Purple Lotus Spiritual Fire already ranked in the terrestrial grade and could even further evolve into the heavenly grade Purple Extreme Heavenly Fire in the future.
"Is this lotus flower the monster inside me?" Zi Yuan asked, puzzled. The little flame transformed from Purple Lotus Spiritual Fire jumped playfully in her hand like a purple sprite. It didn’t look like something that could inflict such a condition on her.
"Sir, can you eliminate the danger within my daughter?"
Looking at Xiao Chen deep in thought, Wan Tianxing asked nervously. At this moment, he wasn’t a powerful warrior, but a father. Xiao Chen didn’t respond immediately, his face once again filled with melancholy.
"There’s no way, is there?"
Xiao Chen didn’t respond, but Wan Tianxing figured as much. If the problem with his daughter was easy to treat, she wouldn’t have had to suffer for so long.
"There is a way!"
"What! Can you really save my daughter?"
Upon hearing Xiao Chen, a brilliant light immediately showed in Wan Tianxing’s eyes. He stared in surprise at Xiao Chen as if trying to see if Xiao Chen was telling the truth!
"But..."
"But what! As long as you can cure my daughter, all these spiritual treasures are yours. If that’s not enough, I can get more, even if that means going over mountains of blades and seas of flames."
"Zi Yuan would have to take me as her master!"
PS: Thank you to all the friends who have been supporting me. After mulling over it, out of helplessness, I have to start releasing teaser Chapters to prevent piracy. To the friends on QQ Book City who always support me, I can only say sorry. Please come over to Qidian NovelFire to read, because Qidian and Chuangshi don’t have synchronized data. After I start releasing teaser Chapters, they will no longer be visible on QQ.
I mainly use Qidian NovelFire. This book is already 1.4 million characters in length, but it’s very slow-going and the subscriptions are not flattering. The editor gave me a few recommendations, but the subscriber growth barely changed. According to the editor, if there’s no improvement, the book will be discarded. So I have no choice but to release teaser Chapters.
After all, Qidian is commercially oriented. If the book cannot bring benefits, the ultimate result will be abandonment.
In the end, I hope a few friends from QQ Book City can come over to Qidian, ok? I could only say sorry again. Also, tomorrow I will be starting the teaser Chapters. They will not appear on QQ. Please do not subscribe, otherwise, your virtual coins will go to waste. Apologies, life is hard, writing is arduous, and I also need to make a living.
As for how to read the teaser Chapters, I will explain later. I’m sorry everyone.
