Black Heaven Sect, inside the Towering Heaven Palace.
Chu Kuangren was taking inventory of his gains from his trip to the Imperial Palace.
He had gained a lot from this trip. Apart from the three treasures he had obtained from the Qian Imperial Palace, the Sovereign blood and precious medicines were also quite valuable.
Just that pile of Supreme Elixirs alone was enough to drive many sage orthodoxies crazy. Coupled with the Serpent Deity's treasury that Chu Kuangren had obtained from the Outer Seas, it was foreseeable that the Black Heaven Sect would enter a period of rapid development.
"This scroll is one of the Nine Emperor Techniques."
Chu Kuangren was quite surprised when he opened the wooden box given by the Qian Emperor.
That was because the wooden box contained one of the Emperor Technique scrolls that Chu Kuangren had once obtained. "What a coincidence."
Chu Kuangren looked at the scroll in his hand and opened it. After studying it for a while, he realized that it was an Emperor Technique called the Heaven Mourning Palm.
As the name suggested, it was an Emperor Art related to grief.
"The Heart Piercing Finger, Raging God's Fist, and Heaven's Grief Palm are all related to the Daoist core or the seven emotions and six desires. Are the other Emperor Techniques the same?" Chu Kuangren muttered as he kept the Heaven's Grief Palm away.
He shifted his gaze to the other two items.
They were the imperial scriptures and the black-armored imperial weapon.
Chu Kuangren decided to refine that Emperor Weapon first.
With the experience of refining the Sea God's Halberd last time, it was easy to refine this Emperor Weapon this time.
About three days later, Chu Kuangren was almost done refining this Emperor Weapon. He did not know if it was the will of the heavens, but after refining this Emperor Weapon, he found out that this Emperor Weapon was called … the Innate Ferocious Armor!
This Emperor Weapon complemented his Infallible Tormented Body very well.
After digesting most of the Opportunities of Fortune that he had obtained from the Imperial Palace, Chu Kuangren came out of his closed-door meditation.
However, even though he had come out of seclusion, he was not idle.
When he thought of what the Heaven Emperor had once said, he felt a vague sense of anxiety in his heart. It was not that he was worried that he could not compare to the so-called people of the Nine Heavens, or the Demon World of Hell …
With his current abilities, unless a Martial Emperor appeared or he was surrounded by a Sage King, he was not afraid of anyone in this world.
The reason why he felt anxious was because of the Black Heaven Sect.
In the Era of Great Battles, various forces appeared one after another, each stronger than the last.
With the strength of the Black Heaven Sect, it would be impossible for him alone to get a share of the pie in this era of great competition.
"Looks like we need to find a way to quickly increase everyone's strength, especially Nangong Huang and the other Daoists' strength. No matter what, we should at least be able to fight against the empyrean walkers, right?" Chu Kuangren murmured.
If a cultivator wanted to quickly increase his strength, there were only a few things he could do. Spiritual power, Dao Aura, equipment, cultivation techniques …
"I can use elixirs to raise my Spiritual Energy. In terms of Daoist Aura, other than the Mystic Origin Imperial Sutra and the Qian Imperial Sutra that I just obtained, I've pretty much comprehended the other two imperial sutras.
"Equipment? There's a pile of Sacred Weapons in the Serpent Deity's Treasure Vault. I'll distribute them when the time comes. As for cultivation methods, I know quite a few of them. However, ordinary Sage Techniques won't be of much help to them …"
Chu Kuangren pondered.
Then, he went to the Pill Hall.
Compared to a few years ago, the Pill Hall now had an additional place called the Heaven's Flourish Lodge, and this Heaven's Flourish Lodge was the holy land in the eyes of all the Black Heaven Sect's alchemists!
This was because there was a mysterious being in the Heaven's Flourish Lodge who was well-versed in almost all alchemy knowledge since ancient times. No matter what problems the Alchemists encountered, they would be able to obtain answers there.
Chu Kuangren arrived at the Heaven's Flourish Lodge.
However, when he arrived, there was already someone inside.
That person was a disciple of the Pill Hall.
At this moment, he was asking the mysterious being in the Heaven's Flourish Lodge for advice on alchemy. He told him his questions.
"Sir, may I know the answer to this question?"
The disciple of the Pill Hall asked.
"This question of yours is too simple. If you don't even know such a simple question, you should go back and strengthen your foundation first."
An old voice sounded in the Heaven's Flourish Lodge.
The disciple of the Pill Hall blushed, but he did not dare to refute.
It was said that even Alchemy Master Gujiang had to be respectful in front of this mysterious being. It was said that Master Gujiang once had an argument with this mysterious being over a pill recipe, but he was scolded until he was speechless.
Since then, Gujiang had been worshipping this being like a god.
If Gujiang was like that, what more a mere disciple like him?
"I'll remember your teachings, Sir."
The disciple quickly bowed and replied before he slowly retreated.
When he turned around, he saw Chu Kuangren at the door.
"Greetings, Sect Leader." The disciple quickly bowed. He did not expect that the Sect Leader, who was rarely seen, would appear here. It was his first time being so close to Chu Kuangren, so he was a little excited.
"Yes."
Chu Kuangren nodded slightly.
"Someone, ask your question."
The old voice of the Heaven's Flourish Lodge appeared and said to Chu Kuangren.
"It's fine if you play tricks in front of others, but how dare you do it in front of me? Aren't you afraid that I'll slap you?"
Chu Kuangren chuckled.
Upon hearing that, the disciple who had not completely retreated was speechless. This was a senior that countless Alchemists, and even Master Gujiang worshipped like a god. How dare the Sect Leader talk to him like that?!
'He even wants to slap me?! '
'God, the Sect Leader is indeed the Sect Leader. '
The admiration in that disciple's eyes became more obvious.
After that disciple had completely left.
An item that looked like a Rubik's Cube appeared in front of Chu Kuangren. It was the Legendary item that Chu Kuangren had previously drawn, the Vitality Pill Tome.
From the Rubik's Cube, a little boy with pigtails and a red dudou emerged. This boy was the mysterious existence that everyone in the Black Heaven Sect talked about as if he was a god. He was also the Item Spirit of the Vitality Pill Tome.
"Master, please save me some face in front of outsiders. How am I supposed to teach these people in the future if you keep behaving like this?"
The Item Spirit, Lil Tian, said. He looked like a seven or eight-year-old child, but his voice sounded like an old man. It sounded a little weird.
"Speak normally."
"Ahem, I'm used to it."
Lil Tian coughed twice and returned to his original voice. He then circled around Chu Kuangren. "Master, is there anything you need from me today?"
"Yes, I'm looking for a safe, stable, and fast-paced medicinal pill," Chu Kuangren said.
Upon hearing that, Lil Tian's little face twisted. "Master, you're making things too difficult for me. Not only do I need a safe, stable, and fast-paced medicinal pill, it's a win-win situation. There haven't been many medicinal pills like this since ancient times."
"Why, can't you do it?" Chu Kuangren smiled.
"How is that possible? I'm the great Item Spirit of the Vitality Pill Tome, Lil Tian. What kind of medicinal pill can stump me!"
Lil Tian then turned into a golden ray of light and entered the Rubik's Cube to search for the medicinal pill that Chu Kuangren needed.
Not long after, a few medicinal pill manuals appeared in front of Chu Kuangren.
"The Supreme Clarity Pill, the Harmonious Spirit Rejuvenation Pill, and the Jade Marrow Golden Pill. The first two are Sage-grade medicinal pills, and the last one is a Boundary Sage-grade medicinal pill. They all meet your requirements, Master," Lil Tian said proudly.
"Well done."
Chu Kuangren smiled in satisfaction. Then, he thought of something and took out the Soul Rejuvenation Herb that he obtained from the Serpent Deity's treasury. "Do you know what this is?"
"This is … the Soul Rejuvenation Herb!" Lil Tian looked at the Soul Rejuvenation Herb and exclaimed.
