Chapter 858: 843 Chapter: War God Expansion, World of Ice! Additional Update 8

Upon entering the hall, they took their respective seats.

"Elder Luo, how are the levels of the young warriors who have not yet advanced to the Towering Realm within the War God Temple?"

After sitting down, Xiao Chen spoke up and asked.

"Chief, after the blood-soaked battle, all of the remaining young warriors are at least in the late phase of the Blood Refining Realm, with the vast majority reaching the perfection of that realm. There are even some who have stepped into the Near Heavy Building Realm and are currently in closed-door cultivation, attempting to advance to the Layered Tower Realm!"

"Good, the trial by blood is the true test."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Chen nodded. He was quite satisfied with the young warriors cultivated by the Tribe War God Palace and believed that it wouldn’t take long for them to be able to stand on their own.

"Moreover, the War God Palace is now recruiting new talents, not just limited to the martial arts aspect." Xiao Chen then spoke again to Luo Yun Mountain.

"I have issued an order for the Hundred Herbs Hall to send a Grand Alchemist, along with ten ordinary junior and senior alchemists, to join the War God Temple in preparation to establish a Pill Hall within it."

"Chief wants to spread the art of alchemy throughout the entire Border Wilderness Domain!" Xiao Chen’s words immediately made Luo Yun Mountain exclaim in shock, while Fengyu’s eyes showed the same astonishment.

"Indeed!" Xiao Chen continued unabashedly: "This time, it’s not just about establishing the Pill Hall, the War God Palace will also set up a Formation Hall and a Spiritual Plants Hall. As for other martial arts auxiliary professions, we will gradually add them in the future!"

"But Chief, the art of alchemy is the pillar art of our Gu Yuan Tribe, and I have also heard that when the War God Temple was established, you had planned to set up the Pill Hall, but later it was not carried out due to some reasons."

Over the years, the Gu Yuan Tribe has gained great benefits from trading elixirs with many tribes throughout the entire Border Wilderness Domain.

One can imagine that if the War God Temple were to announce the establishment of the Pill Hall and recruit young warriors with a talent for alchemy, it would certainly shake the entire Border Wasteland Region and even the surrounding areas.

The Border Wasteland is not lacking in warriors with alchemy talent; what is lacking is the heritage of alchemy!

"Elder Luo, times have changed. Our Gu Yuan Tribe can now be said to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with the Legendary Marquis Department. The entire Border Wilderness Domain is the fealty land of our Gu Yuan Tribe. Although currently, our Gu Yuan cannot control the land, the Imperial Edict from the Human Emperor has linked our Gu Yuan Tribe with this domain. In the future, the path of our Gu Yuan Tribe in the vast Eastern Wasteland, with the Border Wasteland serving as the foundation of our tribe’s establishment on the Human World’s Earth!"

"Furthermore, advancement in alchemy is not comparable to martial arts. By the time these recruited warriors from other tribes become alchemists, several years may have passed. By then, our Gu Yuan Tribe would have advanced beyond comparison."

"As for the benefits previously obtained from producing elixirs, our Gu Yuan Tribe would only be giving up the benefits from common elixirs. The elixirs for the Towering Realm and those above the Venerables will still belong to our Gu Yuan Tribe for the foreseeable future."

"Moreover, if we really can cultivate some true masters of alchemy, it would be a supreme merit for our Border Wasteland."

Xiao Chen’s words were calm, but he did not reveal the deeper reasons behind spreading the art of alchemy to Luo Yun Mountain and his disciple.

Now, our Gu Yuan Tribe is the lord of this Border Wasteland and will be more closely connected to this land in the future.

Promoting the art of alchemy will inevitably aid in the development of martial arts in the Border Wasteland. The prosperity of the Border Wasteland will lead to a rise in its fortunes, and this prosperity will, in turn, benefit the development of the Gu Yuan Tribe. This forms a cycle of mutual reinforcement.

If we can establish our lands as noble territories, after this crisis with foreign tribes is resolved, our Gu Yuan Tribe will inevitably replace the Ancestral Court and take control of the entire Border Wasteland. Thus, enhancing the strength of the Border Wasteland is, in fact, an indirect way of strengthening the Gu Yuan Tribe.

"As for the Formation Master, my eldest disciple Tian Fang is currently studying formation methods and is capable of managing a hall despite being unable to establish a school of his own."

Xiao Chen’s voice rang out, speaking to Luo Yun Mountain.

"Of course, this is just an initial idea of mine. As for the details and what types of division halls need to be added, this will need to be specifically delineated by you, Elder Luo, the master of the War God Temple."

"In three days, I’ve informed the Grand Elder to summon all the Towering Realm and above warriors of our Gu Yuan Tribe to gather at the Tribal Grand Hall for a clan meeting to discuss the future development of our Gu Yuan Tribe. During that time, the expansion of the War God Temple can also be brought up, allowing many tribal elders to discuss it together!"

"Understood!" Both Luo Yun Mountain and his disciple bowed and promised.

Xiao Chen’s figure, however, flashed and he appeared inside the Mountain and River Seal Space.

Roar!

Just as he entered the Mountain and River Seal Space, a roar sounded, and a golden figure instantly came to Xiao Chen’s side. The figure was half a zhang tall, shining golden all over with bright golden eyes that blinked, and there was a purple figure on its back.

"Master!" The little Pegasus excitedly nudged Xiao Chen with its large head, and on its back was a sweet voice that called out.

"Yuan’er!"

Zi Yuan and the little Pegasus were now the new mischievous duo of the Gu Yuan Tribe, but these days, they knew the tribe was in a somber mood, so they rarely went to bother the gathering places of the tribe people.

"Master, Yuan’er is already a Senior Alchemist, and this is the Profound Essence Pill that I’ve refined," Zi Yuan said as she leaped down from the little Pegasus, opening her small hand to reveal the blood-colored, crystalline pill.

The Profound Essence Pill was an elixir for treating the injuries of Blood Refining Realm Warriors, valued at two hundred Yuan Stones each, though that was the price the Gu Yuan Tribe charged to other tribes.

Xiao Chen pinched the blood-colored, crystalline elixir and examined it, noting its lustrous sheen and its wave-like pill essence. Although simple, it definitely had formed a pill essence, indicating that despite not being of the highest quality, it could be considered a superior product.

Such an elixir, coming from the hands of a little girl, was quite remarkable. Even among the Alchemists of the Hundred Herbs Hall of the tribe, those who could refine a superior Profound Essence Pill could be counted on one hand.

Zi Yuan, holding her small head high, looked nervously at Xiao Chen, waiting for his evaluation. This made Xiao Chen embarrassed; he had accepted a disciple with a talent for alchemy, yet he had merely passed on the heritage of the alchemy path and scarcely guided her personally.

It was undeniable that Zi Yuan’s talent in the alchemy path was formidable. At such a young age, she was able to refine elixirs used by Blood Refining Realm Warriors and might even be able to refine top-quality elixirs given some time and experience.

"Master, how is the elixir that Yuan’er refined?"

Seeing that Xiao Chen had not spoken, Zi Yuan reached out with her small hand to grab his battle robe and asked again, her eyes filled with a glimmer of tears, clearly thinking that Xiao Chen was not satisfied with the elixir she refined.

"Hmm?" The next moment, noticing Zi Yuan’s look of disappointment, Xiao Chen quickly reacted and reached out to pick up the little girl.

"The Profound Essence Pill that Yuan’er has refined has already reached the superior grade, even more impressive than what your master managed at the time."

"Really?" Instantly, Zi Yuan’s tears turned into laughter, but she asked coyly, still believing in her heart that Xiao Chen was the most outstanding person and doubting if she could surpass her master.

"But it’s not yet a top-quality Profound Essence Pill," said Zi Yuan, her little face scrunching up again in dissatisfaction the next moment, after having just received her master’s praise. Her expression couldn’t help but amuse Xiao Chen.

"Next time, Yuan’er will definitely refine a top-quality elixir to show Master," declared Zi Yuan, her small face showing a hint of stubborn determination.

Meanwhile, the Profound Essence Pill in hand was swallowed whole by the little Pegasus, but for it, at its current level, the medicinal power of the pill was merely a satisfaction of its palate.

And the little Pegasus had already overcome its once miserable days. Now at the four-star late phase of its realm, its strength was comparable to a human’s Peak Eighth Stage Supreme being, and with the lineage from the golden holy dragon in its veins, Lord Qingjiao could no longer subdue it.

Despite being a four-star steed capable of walking on air, its playful childlike nature had not changed, which was why it got along so well with Zi Yuan. Besides Xiao Chen, only a handful of people in the entire tribe could approach the little Pegasus.

"Master."

Soon, a sprite-like figure materialized from the void—it was Luli, with iridescent wings fluttering gently on her back, as she stood atop the little Pegasus’s golden head.

This instantly made the excited expression on the little Pegasus droop, and it sneezed in protest.

However, Luli ignored the little Pegasus’s movement, which left it looking pitifully at Xiao Chen.

Luli was the only one in the Gu Yuan Tribe who could make the little Pegasus feel defeated; no matter what it did, as soon as Luli appeared from the Mountain and River Seal Space, she would bully it, much to its annoyance.

"Luli, has the Crystal of Cold Darkness been integrated into the Mountain River Seal?"

Xiao Chen, also ignoring the little Pegasus’s grievance, then softly inquired of Luli. The Crystal of Cold Darkness, obtained from the Void Floating Island of the Blood Faint Noble Family, had been entrusted to Luli.

"Master, it has already merged into the Mountain River Seal, forming the World of Ice!"

Upon hearing Xiao Chen’s question, Luli suddenly became excited as if she had discovered a new and fascinating plaything, full of enthusiasm.

"World of Ice?" Xiao Chen heard Luli’s words and was momentarily puzzled.

"Yes, that Crystal of Cold Darkness was a chilly treasure of heaven and earth. Although it wasn’t the absolute top tier, its grade wasn’t bad either, being a water-attributed variant spirit item. Luli has hence transformed it into an Ice World," Luli crisply replied.

"Master, heavenly and earthly treasures all have attributes, and naturally, each attribute has countless varieties of treasures. However, the Crystal of Cold Darkness is really too small, and the Ice World that Luli created with it spans only a thousand miles in radius," she explained.

At this moment, Xiao Chen’s interest was piqued by the Ice World that Luli mentioned.
