Chapter 729: Chapter 715: Personal Desires of Alchemy Path, Hope of Martial Arts! (Seeking Subscription 16/20)_1

[Additional Update!]Achieving feats in the Blood Refining Realm that challenge the Towering Realm is an absolutely astounding accomplishment. There is a large realm gap between the Blood Refining Realm and the Towering Realm, and this gap represents the difference in life stage and status for warriors. Practicing the Purple Gold Battle Body could neutralize this gap, which is enough to show the strength of the Purple Gold Battle Body.

Moreover, ever since the destruction of the Purple Gold King’s Department tens of thousands of years ago, the consumption for those who trained their bodies was even more substantial compared to those who trained their Combat Qi in the same realm. Even the trials they faced were many times harsher, resulting in only a few focusing on the path of body refinement.

Despite the destruction of the Supreme Purple King’s Department, few people pursued the practice of the Purple Gold War Body, with even fewer reaching advanced realms.

The battle body techniques Xiao Chen passed on to Xiong Sheng even encompassed his various insights and precautions during his own body refinement training, which meant that Xiong Sheng would be able to avoid many detours. This reveals the significance of passing down deep-rooted heritage. The tribe’s practice cultivated over thousands of years had been tried and tested across generations, resulting in a coherent understanding that gradually evolved into the most suitable state for warriors to cultivate. They only needed to follow the steps laid out, saving time on exploration.

"Very well, Yun Weihe and Zi Yuan were disciples I accepted before you!"

As Xiong Sheng stood aside, Xiao Chen scanned his newly accepted disciples and softly said, "I have taken in nine disciples in total. I hope you will support and respect each other in the future."

"Yes!"

The disciples responded in unison, bowing in acknowledgment.

"Indeed, the nine of you, except for Zi Yuan who is too young and is rightfully the junior sister, should be considerate of her in future. As for the rest of you eight, the seniority among you should be determined by age, not strength."

Soon, the disciples determined their seniority, and Tian Fang was the well-deserved senior brother. Followed by Yun Wei as the second sister, Jian Jinghong as the third brother, Xiong Sheng and Huang Xiaotian ranking fourth and fifth respectively, Bu Canghai as the sixth brother, Long Tian and Kunpeng as seventh and eighth brothers, and Zi Yuan finally as the junior sister.

"Greetings, Master and two Madams!"

A quarter of an hour later, the nine disciples lined up side by side. Even the youngest Zi Yuan properly knelt down with the other disciples and bowed respectfully to Xiao Chen and the two women, Mu Qing, and Nianhua, who were sitting on either side of him, together receiving the greeting from their disciples.

"Enough, rise!"

Xiao Chen gazed at the nine disciples in front of him, feeling very satisfied in his heart. The nine disciples had exceptional talents, each one with their own merits. As long as they were cultivated properly, their future achievements would certainly not fall short of his own. At their age, Xiao Chen’s strength wasn’t even as good as theirs.

"Even though you are all my personal disciples, in the War God Temple, you will be treated the same as everyone else. Of course, as my personal disciples, you naturally possess advantages that other warriors do not."

"I currently possess two sets of techniques at the pinnacle level of the Terrestrial Tier. Once practiced to perfection, they both have the potential to progress to the Heavenly Tier. One is called ’Heavenly Python Art’, created by our ancestors who learned from the ancient ferocious beasts ’Purple Winged Devouring Heaven Python’ in the desolate wilds. When cultivated to the state of perfection, it can transform into a heavenly python and even potentially evoke a divine dragon vision with the right fate."

"The other one, as you know, is the ’Fighting Heavenly Scripture’ bestowed by the Ancestral Court. When perfected, it is also able to rank among the Heavenly Tier techniques."

"Apart from these, our Gu Yuan Tribe also has dozens of superior terrestrial tier techniques, all of which are exceptional and you can choose freely!"

Xiao Chen was naturally not stingy with his own disciples. The bond between a disciple and a Master was symbiotic. When compared to other warriors who could only choose techniques below the Terrestrial Superior Tier, they could select from the most advanced methods Xiao Chen held in high esteem.

However, the techniques they were allowed to choose from were merely the Bone-Tempering Realm and Blood Refining Realm sections. As for higher level techniques, they would only be granted access to them once they progressed to the corresponding realm.

This is a common method utilized by tribes in the border wastelands to prevent higher-level techniques from being stolen by other warriors. Although Xiao Chen widely spread martial arts, he had not been unwise enough to reveal all of his techniques.

"This is a teleportation token. If you encounter danger in the future, activating this token will instantly bring you back to this space."

Simultaneously, Xiao Chen’s hand was infused with a green light, and a token suddenly appeared in the hands of each of his disciples. Then, Xiao Chen sent these disciples back to the War God Temple. He had already sent a message to Shi Ya, instructing them to choose martial arts techniques and skills from the Martial Arts Pavilion. However, Zi Yuan and Yun Wei stayed. The other disciples, possessing such tokens, were naturally free to enter and exit this space.

Soon, Yun Wei took Zi Yuan away, and they left the pavilion on the mountainside, leaving only Xiao Chen and his wife.

"Husband, the examination at the War God Temple has concluded. Moreover, you have recruited some disciples with remarkable talent, whether it be your disciples or the warriors from the War God Temple. It will all be up to them from now on!"

Gazing at Xiao Chen’s lost eyes, Mu Qing gently held his arm and softly said.

"Yeah, The War God Temple will provide them with everything they want. How far they can get depends on them. With this batch of young warriors as a foundation, the War God Temple will soon get back on track. From now on, as long as young warriors pass the test of their values, they can join the War God Temple."

The establishment of the War God Temple is a vital part of the development of Xiao Chen’s tribe, designed to spread the influence of the Gu Yuan Tribe. Also, this time, the Bai Ze Ancestor appeared, and his resilience against Bai Ze Ancestor was sure to stir the Wilderness, making the War God Temple even more renowned than he had expected. In the Border Wasteland, it would attract more warriors.

Subsequently, Xiao Chen paused and turned his head to Mu Qing, asking, "Have you found anyone with a talent for the Alchemy Path?"

This time, as the War God Temple opened its gate, it recruited young warriors and taught them martial arts. At the same time, Mu Qing and Nianhua were also scouting for people with a talent for the Alchemy Path. However, per Xiao Chen’s instructions, they undertook these initiatives privately, not drawing anyone’s attention.

"According to your commands, husband, we were careful not to draw attention. We found fewer than a hundred young warriors who were eliminated from the War God Temple’s examination who demonstrate some talent for the Alchemy Path, merely few with a talent that may allow them to ascend to the Alchemist’s Realm. They have already been secretly included in our Gu Yuan Tribe."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Chen nodded. His discreet approach to this stemmed from his deliberate decision. During his transactions with many tribes, he received tens of thousands of superior-grade spirit stones due to the monopoly held by the Gu Yuan Tribe, which allowed him to reap substantial profits.

If the War God Temple were to emphasize the inheritance of the Alchemy Path enthusiastically, these wasteland tribes would flock in droves, sending their tribal warriors to join them. It’s not that the War God Temple would stop teaching the Alchemy Path. Xiao Chen simply planned to postpone this inheritance until the Gu Yuan Tribe had accumulated enough foundation through the sale of elixirs and had more alchemists advance to Senior Alchemist or even Grand Alchemist. After that, he would begin to disseminate the Alchemy Path, ensuring that the Gu Yuan Tribe maintained its lead and authority in this area.

As such, under Xiao Chen’s direction, Mu Qing and the others recruited wandering practitioners and warriors from other tribes who were eliminated from the War God Temple’s examination. For those young warriors who failed to make the cut for the War God Temple, the Gu Yuan Tribe’s invitation was hard to resist. Although they might not be able to join the War God Temple to learn Martial Arts, they could still join the Gu Yuan Tribe to study the Alchemy Path, an unexpected delight.

"Building the War God Temple into a comprehensive sacred place for cultivation is, indeed, one of my plans. In comparison, the Martial Arts Path is the easiest and simplest to establish. Hence, at this point, the War God Temple is only recruiting talented youngsters and cultivating the strong ones. When the time is ripe, we will disseminate the Alchemy Path and even other paths such as Formation Way. All these require time."

As Xiao Chen was having a pleasant time with his two wives, something was happening outside the Gu Yuan Tribe’s Mountain City.

The examination at the War God Temple had ended, and the warriors from the various tribes who had participated in it had left with their respective tribal chiefs. However, almost twenty to thirty thousand young warriors remained, along with their elders, amounting to over a hundred thousand people. Among these warriors, there were plenty in the Towering Realm. Even more were perfecting the Blood Refining Realm, with countless at the half-step Towering Realm.

Although these wandering warriors had shallow cultivation backgrounds and practiced rudimentary Techniques, their years of battling in the Wilderness had made them ruthless and aggressive.

Out on the eastern part of the tribal city, the stone houses initially constructed for warriors participating in the examination had already been occupied by countless warriors, and the form of a small gathering point had even started to take shape.

Furthermore, the ancient mountain with gravity carried the effect of refining martial arts and had become a preferred place for these warriors to refine their Combat Qi. Many warriors were prepared to stay here to improve their martial arts using the ancient mountain.

"In the name of Xiao Chen, I command."

Just then, a loud shout came from the top of the city wall, "The establishment of the War God Temple is to spread Martial Arts. As long as one is of the human bloodline and has a heart toward Martial Arts, they can come to the Gu Yuan Tribe. Even if they can’t join the War God Temple, they still have the chance to inherit high-rank Techniques."

What!?

The warriors outside the city, who were initially clamoring, suddenly quieted down. The warriors who chose to stay were mostly wandering practitioners. They had brought their juniors to participate in the examination, hoping to escape their predicament of inheritance, but they failed. The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment. Some warriors were even prepared to leave with disappointment, but the sudden announcement filled their previously disappointed eyes with hopeful gleam.
