It took Xiao Chen half a month to refine the Heaven and Earth Splitting Pellet. During this time, Zhang Cai had come by several times. Hearing the maid's words, Xiao Chen nodded slightly. He had a rough idea of Zhang Cai's purpose in coming here, most likely to find Zhou Meng's whereabouts.
Xiao Chen ordered the maid to inform Zhang Cai that he had come out of seclusion. Afterwards, he waited quietly in the courtyard for Zhang Cai's arrival.
Zhang Cai didn't have to wait for long. After about a quarter of an hour, Zhang Cai quickly walked into the courtyard. He directly stood in front of Xiao Chen and respectfully bowed.
"Holy Prince, I have news of Zhou Meng."
"Oh, tell me about it." Hearing this, Xiao Chen gestured for Zhang Cai to take a seat as he spoke.
The Four Directions Chamber of Commerce's ability was indeed not bad, being able to find Zhou Meng's whereabouts in such a short time. Of course, this was also due to Zhou Meng's great reputation in the Barbarian Race, so it wasn't too difficult to find him.
According to Zhang Cai, Zhou Meng had left the Barbarian God Sect ten days ago, heading to Yellow Sand City, then entered the Yellow Sand Plains and hadn't come out yet.
Because the Yellow Sand Plains was too big and dangerous, the Four Directions Chamber of Commerce's people didn't dare to rashly enter, thus losing track of Zhou Meng.
However, according to Zhang Cai's guess, Zhou Meng had entered the Yellow Sand Plains to train. After completing his training, he would definitely return to Yellow Sand City. After all, there was only one Yellow Sand City in the vicinity of the Yellow Sand Plains.
Zhang Cai had already left the Four Directions Chamber of Commerce's people in Yellow Sand City. As long as Zhou Meng appeared, they would be notified at the first moment.
Xiao Chen was very satisfied with Zhang Cai's ability to handle matters. This person was indeed thoughtful, but thinking about it, if it wasn't for this, how could Zhang Cai become the Four Directions Chamber of Commerce's person in charge in the Barbarian Race? Moreover, Zhang Cai had also developed the Four Directions Chamber of Commerce into one of the strongest chambers of commerce in the Barbarian Race.
Zhou Meng's whereabouts were unknown for the time being, and Xiao Chen did not plan to go to the Yellow Sand Plain. Compared to the vastness of the Yellow Sand Plain, Xiao Chen going in to look for Zhou Meng was like looking for a needle in a haystack.
It would be better to do as Zhou Meng said and wait for Zhou Meng to return to Yellow Sand City. At that time, Xiao Chen would directly go to Yellow Sand City.
He still needed to wait for a few more days. After thinking about it, Xiao Chen simply chose to stay for the time being. Anyway, he still had two Splitting Heaven and Earth Pills with him. He could take advantage of this opportunity to refine them.
The effect of one Pill of Splitting Heaven and Earth had already made Xiao Chen overjoyed. Now there were two more. If he could refine them all, Xiao Chen was 80% sure that he could break through to the Half-saint Realm.
"If that's the case, then I'll have to trouble Lord Zhang." He thanked Zhang Cai.
In the face of Xiao Chen's gratitude, Zhang Cai returned the courtesy again and again. He kept expressing that it was his honor to work for Xiao Chen.
Zhou Meng would return to Yellow Sand City sooner or later. So, there was no hurry. Therefore, after talking with Zhang Cai for a while, Xiao Chen rested for a day. Then, he began his closed-door training again.
There were still two Splitting Heaven and Earth Pills left. He would use these two Splitting Heaven and Earth Pills to break through to the Half-saint Realm.
Xiao Chen sat cross-legged in his room, and continued to refine the Splitting Heaven and Earth Pills. Xiao Chen had already experienced it once. So, he was more familiar with it this time. He was also very clear about the effects of the Splitting Heaven and Earth Pills.
Another half a month passed in the blink of an eye. After he finished refining the second Splitting Heaven and Earth Pill, Xiao Chen came out of his closed-door training for a day. He asked Zhang Cai if there was any news from Zhou Meng, but the answer he received was no. It seemed that Zhou Meng hadn't left the Yellow Sand Plains.
There was still no news from Zhou Meng. Xiao Chen rested for a day, and then he chose to enter into closed-door training again. After all, Xiao Chen had specially instructed the two maidservants by his side that no one was to disturb him during his closed-door training this time.
There was only one last Pill of Breaking Heaven and Earth left. Xiao Chen was going to use this Pill of Breaking Heaven and Earth to break through to the Half-Saint realm.
After refining two Splitting Heaven and Earth Pills in succession, Xiao Chen's cultivation had already arrived at the limits of perfection of the Dao Emperor Realm, and he faintly touched the threshold of the Half-saint Realm. So, Xiao Chen intended to use the third and final Splitting Heaven and Earth Pill to break through to the Half-saint Realm.
He seemed to be much more cautious than the last two times. After all, there was only one Splitting Heaven and Earth Pill left. If he couldn't break through in one go, then Xiao Chen would undoubtedly waste a lot of time.
Xiao Chen sat cross-legged on his bed and wasn't in a hurry to refine the pill. Instead, he adjusted his state to its peak before swallowing the last Splitting Heaven and Earth Pill.
The medicinal effects of the pill spread throughout his body as soon as it entered his stomach. His Dantian started to circulate by itself, and the spirit energy in the surroundings was ceaselessly absorbed into his body and refined by itself.
He closed his eyes tightly and began to attempt to break through to the threshold of the Half-saint Realm. While Xiao Chen was attempting to break through to the Half-saint Realm, the other Saints on the Saint Rankings in various parts of the Central World also broke through one after another.
In the past, the 36 Heavenly Stars on the Saint Rankings were generally Half-saints. But now, some of the Earth Emanations Saints who were ranked at the top had broken through to the Half-saint Realm one after another.
Actually, this was very normal. After all, while Xiao Chen was improving, it was impossible for the other Saints on the Saint Rankings to not improve. Moreover, their improvements were very fast. None of them were simple to be able to make it onto the Saint Rankings.
Many of the Earth Emanations Saints who were ranked at the top had broken through to the Half-saint Realm one after another. As a result, the strength of the entire Saint Rankings had undergone a terrifying increase.
At least seven or eight Saints on the Saint Rankings had broken through to the Half-saint Realm. Xiao Chen wasn't the only one who had improved. The other Saints on the Saint Rankings were also improving.
Of course, compared to them, Xiao Chen's improvement speed was obviously faster. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to catch up with them.
Ten days passed in a row. Xiao Chen had reached the crucial point of breaking through to the Half-saint Realm. Although it was only half a step to breaking through to the Half-saint Realm, it was this half a step that many people couldn't cross in their entire lives.
The reason why Xiao Chen was able to break through to the Half-saint Realm again and again was also because of the help of the Splitting Heaven and Earth Elixir. Otherwise, this breakthrough would probably end in failure.
With the help of the Splitting Heaven and Earth Elixir, Xiao Chen's spirit energy didn't dry up and he was able to continuously break through to the Half-saint Realm.
He couldn't remember exactly how many times he'd broken through to the Half-saint Realm. On this day, a muffled bang resounded from Xiao Chen's body, and then a terrifying aura shot into the sky.
This aura surpassed the Dao Emperor Realm. Obviously, Xiao Chen had successfully broken through to the Half-saint Realm. However, because he'd just broken through, Xiao Chen was momentarily unable to control the aura within him. In an instant, the aura swept out and enveloped the entire courtyard.
