Xiao Chen did not rush to agree. He asked where the Evil King had passed away, how long it would take to return, and how dangerous it would be.
Then, he expressed that he would think about the details for a day before deciding.
After returning to his courtyard, Xiao Chen took out the brocade boxes containing the Yellow Tune Grass and the Golden Sun Ganoderma. He had already prepared all the other ingredients for the Breaking Sage Pill's Alchemic Recipe. He only lacked the three main ingredients before he could refine it.
Xiao Chen looked at the two brocade boxes and thought for a long time. Ying Qiong had passed the appointed time and had not delivered the three main ingredients yet.
There were only two reasons for this. First, something unexpected had happened. She had not collected the Flaming Sun Fruit, the Three Holy Masters Grass, and the Heaven Dragon Flower.
Second, she had already found another way to advance to Martial Sage and did not need the other core painting piece for the Great Roc Spreading Wings Painting.
Regardless of the reason, Xiao Chen had to plan ahead. He could not hang on to one tree.
"I'll wait for the last two months. If there is still no news by the time I return, I'll give up."
After putting away the brocade boxes, Xiao Chen sat at the table and frowned heavily. Then, he took out the two Inferior Grade Astral Cores.
The white Astral Cores contained a surging, horrifying energy. Astral Cores could be used in all sorts of warships, formations, Spirit Weapons, Secret Treasures, and Spirit Weapons. They were very useful.
However, Xiao Chen was thinking of another way to use them. He wanted to ignite them and cause an explosion. If they were caught off guard, they could kill a half-Sage.
If an Inferior Grade Martial Sage was severely injured, a peak Inferior Grade Martial Sage would only be injured.
Xiao Chen toyed with the two Astral Cores in his hand for a while before casually placing them aside. Although they were powerful, they were not as effective as he wanted them to be.
After searching the Universe Ring for a while, Xiao Chen took out a Golden Savage Ox sculpture. When he saw the exquisite sculpture, he smiled faintly. Now, this sculpture was no longer useful.
With a thought, Xiao Chen took out the Sage Grade Pagoda in his body and placed it on the table.
Initially, the Sage Grade Pagoda had looked very powerful. However, now that he used it, he understood why those Martial Sages did not want this Secret Treasure.
The Sage Grade Pagoda contained too few Heavenly Sage Laws, and its defenses were not very strong.
Xiao Chen thought for a while and felt that he could modify this Sage Grade pagoda, so he placed it beside the Astral Core.
After some thought, a Palm Sword burning with a lightning-attributed flame flew out. Xiao Chen revealed an expression of regret. However, he still placed it beside the Golden Savage Ox sculpture.
He hadn't used it much after he cultivated it, and when he really thought about it, he realized that the grade of it wasn't high enough.
"Xiao Chen, what are you doing?" Ao Jiao asked curiously when she saw Xiao Chen's actions.
Xiao Chen continued searching the Universe Ring. He replied casually, "I am looking for some things. I want to see if there are any trump cards that I can use when the time comes."
"Xiao Chen" took out a small. After that, "Xiao", and "to" to "to say". "Xiao" had "Chen" was "" to say. "" Then, "Xiao Chen said," I keep feeling that Elder Peng did not tell us everything. The Evil King's final resting place is not that simple. "
"Perhaps." Xiao Chen nodded and said, "Perhaps. However, no matter what, I have to make a trip because of the Evil King's name. It does not matter if I cannot obtain anything. I must obtain the secret of the seven thrones."
Xiao Chen nodded and said, "Perhaps. However, no matter what, I have to make a trip just because of the words' Evil King '. It does not matter if I cannot obtain anything. I must obtain the secret of the seven thrones."
However, if he truly merged them, he would be in big trouble. Against a will of primal chaos that was close to the truth of the Great Dao, Xiao Chen would not be a match for it.
However, if he truly merged them, he would be in big trouble. Against a will of primal chaos that was close to the truth of the Great Dao, Xiao Chen would not be a match for it.
Although Xiao Chen knew that it would not be easy for the other party to merge the will of light and the will of darkness, even if he succeeded, he would be nothing before Chu Chaoyun.
Hope for the best and plan for the worst. This was how Xiao Chen had always been. Hence, he had to try the state of cycle formed by the merging of the seven thrones in the future.
Otherwise, he would not be able to pass on the will of another will to resist the will of primal chaos.
After fiddling around for a long time, Xiao Chen was somewhat disappointed to discover that there were practically no external items that could be used as a trump card.
"Hey!"
Suddenly, Xiao Chen was stunned. He found a simple and unadorned metal bow in a corner of the Universe Ring. The words "Soul Slayer" were carved on the handle.
Xiao Chen's expression changed, revealing an expression of joy. He could not wait to grab the bow and rush out excitedly.
Xiao Chen casually found an arrow and nocked it. All the energy in his body surged like a gushing river. Then, he slowly pulled the bowstring back.
Unexpectedly, the strenuous feeling from many years ago was still present. With a casual punch, Xiao Chen could exert one million six hundred thousand kilograms of force.
He could not immediately pull the bowstring back into the shape of a full moon. It looked like the saying, "The greater the strength, the greater the might." was true.
Xiao Chen used half his strength. Then, he let go, and the arrow flew out.
"Whoosh!"
The speed of the arrow was so fast that it did not leave a shadow. It was even faster than the saber Qi that Xiao Chen sent out. However, it only traveled half the distance. The material of the arrow was too poor. It could not withstand the force and exploded in the air.
The shock waves from the explosion spread out, and the dense forest in front instantly turned to dust. An empty space appeared before Xiao Chen.
A smile appeared on Xiao Chen's face as he put down the Soul Slayer Bow. He muttered to himself, "I finally found a pretty good trump card. However, I have to ask First Senior Sister for some arrows. Otherwise, I will not be able to use them."
After returning to the room in the courtyard, Xiao Chen could not find anything else. Then, he thought of something. His arm flashed, and a Void Projection Painting appeared in his palm.
There was a blood-red lotus flower in the painting. It looked tender and beautiful, exuding a strong fiendish aura. This was a Magic Treasure with the ancient ferocious flame, the Scarlet Blood Frost Flame. Of course, it was a copy and not the original.
Leng Yue had spent a lot of effort on this Magic Treasure. Xiao Chen had always been reluctant to use it. If he could avoid using it this time, Xiao Chen would do his best not to.
As Xiao Chen looked at this painting, he could not help but think of Leng Yue's face. He wondered where this Eros Demon, who was full of secrets, was now.
Back then, without Leng Yue's Charm Techniques, Xiao Chen could not have truly grasped the state of massacre.
Then, Xiao Chen looked at the table and put away all the things around the Golden Savage Ox statue. He had no use for them.
Then, he slowly took stock of the other things. There were two Inferior Grade Astral Cores. They were pretty strong, but they still needed to be refined. Their Heavenly Laws would not have any offensive power.
Although the Sage Grade pagoda was of little value, Xiao Chen could only rely on it for now. He would have to spend some Astral Coins to strengthen it.
The puppet snake was not very valuable. However, it had the ability to drill into the ground. Perhaps it would have a miraculous effect.
As for the two Inferior Grade Astral Cores, Xiao Chen spent an entire night using the Will Talisman to baptize them in a soul-stirring manner.
The Soul Slayer Bow was an important treasure among important treasures. Once Xiao Chen obtained the corresponding arrows, it would be a trump card that could deter peak Inferior Grade Martial Sages.
The Scarlet Blood Frost Flame in the Void Projection Painting was very powerful. However, it was too special and best not to use it. Otherwise, if it was exposed and others discovered that it was a Magic Treasure, he would be in big trouble.
These were the trump cards that Xiao Chen could use on this trip. Some of them required a lot of money to refine. He could not be stingy with his Astral Coins for the next two days.
He handed the Sage Grade pagoda to the Refining Pavilion's Pavilion Master to upgrade it personally. As for the arrows for the Soul Slayer Bow, Xiao Chen obtained the highest-ranked Star Scar Arrow from his First Senior Sister.
Ten thousand Astral Coins could buy one. Xiao Chen spent five million Astral Coins, emptying out the sect's stock that could be sold.
On the last day, Xiao Chen managed to carve several things on a piece of Spiritual Wood that he bought. Finally, before Peng Dan, Xiao Chen felt more confident.
"How is it? Little Friend, have you thought it through?" Peng Dan asked with a smile on his face. A hard-to-detect look of anticipation flashed in his eyes.
Xiao Chen did not show any joy or sorrow. He nodded and said, "I've thought it through. I've decided to take a gamble."
Peng Dan stood up and said, "Good. Actually, this trip is quite dangerous. However, just follow behind us. You do not need to do anything along the way. You just need to come out when you run into that strange flame. I think you should be fine."
Peng Dan took out Rank 3 Medicinal Pills and said, "These three bottles of Medicinal Pills can be considered a greeting gift from this old man to Little Friend. They are all peak Rank 9 Medicinal Pills. One bottle detoxifies poison, one bottle treats internal injuries, and one bottle treats external injuries. They all have markings on them."
Xiao Chen cursed in his heart. If he did not agree, this old man would probably never give him a greeting gift again.
However, these Medicinal Pills did have some value. After Xiao Chen received them, he thanked Peng Dan.
Peng Dan waved his hand and said, "Let's go. We will meet up with our old friends first. At that time, if there are any strange people, Little Friend should try to keep your mouth shut. If there is anything to take note of, I will send you a voice projection to let you know."
The place where the Evil King died was not in the Tianwu Domain. Instead, it was a desolate land between the Primal Chaos Domain and the Chaotic Demonic Sea.
That place was rather famous in the Kunlun Realm. The soil there was a dull yellow, not suitable for normal plants. Instead, it was filled with strange and dangerous plants.
This place was known as the Yellow Soil Demonic Garden. Although it was called a demonic garden, it was astonishingly large, comparable to the Savage Battlefield in the Tianwu Domain.
However, there were no forbidden lands or Immortal Sect Remnants in there. It was filled with plants that killed people. These plants all possessed intelligence. When some cultivated to Great Perfection, they could even rival the human race's Emperor Wu.
Rumor had it that one of the three wondrous trees of the world, the Undying Tree, grew in the Yellow Soil Demonic Garden. However, it was hard to verify whether this was true or not.
Some people claimed that they had seen the legendary Undying Tree with their own eyes. However, when everyone arrived at the location that they mentioned, they did not discover anything.
Such things happened frequently. However, when they actually arrived, they did not discover anything. Even now, there was no conclusion.
There were many other strange places in the Yellow Soil Demonic Garden. For example, its four seasons were very different from other places. The four seasons would cycle only once every one hundred years.
When autumn arrived, the fruits of several plants would ripen. This would attract many cultivators from the Primal Chaos Domain and the Merfolk living in the Chaotic Demonic Sea to come ashore to search for them.
Above the Yellow Soil Demonic Garden, there were storms that did not scatter all year round. If cultivators wanted to fly over, they would have to expend a lot of energy. It was practically impossible.
They could only take some risks and fly over. However, this round trip would take at least half a year.
