It took Xiao Chen an entire night to refine the palm-sized Yin Wind Stone in his hand. Because all the energy within it had been completely refined by Xiao Chen, the Yin Wind Stone shattered in a very natural manner. A gust of wind blew past and it was reduced to dust.
After he completely refined and absorbed the Yin Wind Stone, Xiao Chen was able to clearly sense that his cultivation had improved greatly, and he was even more confident in his heart. So long as he possessed sufficient Yin Wind Stones, he would absolutely be able to break through into the perfection-stage of the Dao Emperor Realm within half a year of time. At that time, he would possess the ability to go against Bai Qiuran.
The perfection of the Dao Emperor Realm was the most basic requirement to ascend the Hallowed Rankings. Even the weakest Chosen on the Hallowed Rankings was at the perfection of the Dao Transformation Realm.
Xiao Chen exhaled softly and slowly opened his eyes. He glanced at Chen Ling, Long Qing and the others who were still protecting him and revealed a faint smile.
"Let's go. These Yin Wind Stones are really treasures. I can't be the only one benefiting from them, right?"
After personally experiencing the benefits of the Yin Wind Stones, Xiao Chen was even more confident about this trip to the Heavenly Yin Valley. He firmly believed that as long as he had sufficient Yin Wind Stones, not only would he be able to improve greatly, but Chen Ling, Long Qing and the others as well.
Searching for even more Yin Wind Stones was the goal of Xiao Chen and the others for the next half a year. If they were lucky, Xiao Chen believed that the Sacred Palace's strength would probably improve greatly in half a year.
Everyone smiled when they heard Xiao Chen's words, and then they continued on their way.
Searching for Yin Wind Stones in the Heavenly Yin Valley wasn't difficult, but it wasn't easy either. It depended on two things. One was luck, and the other was strength.
After all, there were too many monks and too little porridge. Those who were lucky could discover Yin Wind Stones, while those who were strong could seize them. In short, strength and luck were equally important in how much one could obtain.
The Heavenly Yin Valley wasn't small, so after half a month passed, Xiao Chen and the others naturally obtained some gains. Moreover, they seized some Yin Wind Stones from the disciples of the other sects during this period of time.
Of course, Xiao Chen and the others fought against some weaker sects. With the current strength of the Sacred Palace, they were still slightly inferior to those stronger sects. So, Xiao Chen naturally wouldn't foolishly send himself to them when he knew he wasn't a match for them.
Their gains during this half a month of time were considerable. At the very least, each of them obtained at least two Yin Wind Stones. Xiao Chen, Chen Ling, Long Qing and the others had persevered, so he obtained the most Yin Wind Stones. He obtained five Yin Wind Stones................
Actually, Xiao Chen knew why Chen Ling and the others gave him so many Yin Wind Stones. All of them hoped that he could break through to the perfection of the Dao Emperor Realm as soon as possible because only then would Xiao Chen possess the strength to fight Bai Qiuran.
It was impossible to mediate between him and Bai Qiuran. So, the sooner Xiao Chen broke through to the perfection of the Dao Emperor Realm, the better it would be for the Sacred Palace as well. Because if a Chosen on the Hallowed Rankings appeared in the Sacred Palace, then their status in the Heavenly Yin Solar Sect would rise greatly. After all, the Heavenly Yin Solar Sect only had two Chosen on the Hallowed Rankings.
Xiao Chen was moved by their hope, but he didn't say anything. He could only work hard and strive to break through to the perfection of the Dao Emperor Realm as soon as possible.
After half a month passed, everyone's cultivation improved. Especially Xiao Chen, he could already faintly sense the barrier to the perfection of the Dao Emperor Realm. Half a month in the Heavenly Yin Valley was practically equivalent to a few years of cultivation for Xiao Chen in the outside world. This was how terrifying a secret realm was.
Xiao Chen and the others found a place to rest at night. At the same time, Qin Shuirou and the others started to refine the Yin Wind Stones while Xiao Chen and the others were responsible for standing guard for them.
In the Heavenly Yin Valley, it was naturally impossible to let down one's guard. Therefore, when everyone refined the Yin Wind Stones, they did it in groups. One group was responsible for cultivating, while the other group was responsible for guarding. Now, it was Qin Shuirou and the other three girls' turn to refine the Yin Wind Stones.
The four of them sat at the center while Xiao Chen and the others gathered around them. All of them seemed to have their eyes closed, but they were actually constantly vigilant towards every single movement in the surroundings.
The night was dark. It was a night that wasn't any different from any other night. Everything seemed to be very normal. However, it was precisely during this seemingly impermanent night that Xiao Chen's sharp senses suddenly noticed two weak auras amidst the silent night.
These two auras were approaching them. Xiao Chen suddenly opened his eyes when he noticed this. At the same time, Chen Ling, Long Qing, and Chen Yu noticed the existence of these two auras as well.
The four of them exchanged glances before Xiao Chen said in a low voice, "Senior Brother Chen Yu, stay behind. I'll go take a look with Big Brother and Second Sister."
Without knowing the other party's identity and purpose, Xiao Chen didn't dare to let his guard down. He left Chen Yu to lead the others to continue guarding Qin Shuirou and the others while he, Chen Ling, and Long Qing went to take a look.
Hearing Xiao Chen's words, Xiao Chen nodded in response. Then, under the cover of the night, the three siblings quickly disappeared from their original spot.
After Xiao Chen and the others left, Emperor Qing and the others opened their eyes one after another and were secretly on guard. Obviously, they had also noticed that something was wrong.
Taking advantage of the cover of the night, Xiao Chen and the others quickly discovered the source of these two auras. There was no doubt that they were two disciples of the Heavenly Note Extreme Yang Sect. However, at this time, these two disciples were injured. It was obvious that they had just experienced a battle.
The disciples of two sects should have encountered each other and then a battle broke out. The sects that these two disciples belonged to were defeated, so they had no choice but to escape and inadvertently barge into the place where Xiao Chen and the others were.
The cultivation of these two disciples wasn't high to begin with. They were only at the Initial Dao Emperor Stage. Moreover, they were seriously injured. Therefore, after Xiao Chen and the others exchanged glances, they didn't think much and immediately attacked.
Since they were already injured, it didn't take much effort for Xiao Chen and the others to successfully capture the two disciples and bring them back.
Seeing Xiao Chen and the others return with the two injured disciples, Chen Yu and the others secretly heaved a sigh of relief. It seemed that there wasn't any danger.
"Continue to cultivate. It'll be fine." Glancing at Qin Shuirou and the others who were also alarmed, Xiao Chen indicated that the four girls didn't have to worry and continued to cultivate.
After saying that, Xiao Chen came to the two disciples and asked indifferently, "Which sect do you belong to? Why are you seriously injured?"
Xiao Chen had already guessed what had happened to these two disciples, but he still wanted to ask clearly. After all, in the Heavenly Yin Valley, the various sects were actually in a competitive relationship with each other.
