"It's up to you. However, if something happens, you will have to bear the consequences!" Xiao Fan said indifferently as he looked at the Sect Masters of the various great sects of the Great West Prefecture, who were clearly saying that they would not do it, but in fact, they would definitely do it.
The various great sects of the Great West Prefecture had nothing to do with Xiao Fan. Xiao Fan couldn't be bothered to care whether they lived or died. Furthermore, Xiao Fan had already warned them and explained the possible consequences. It could be said that he was being extremely benevolent. However, if they insisted on not listening to his advice and insisted on courting death, who could stop them if they wanted to die?
"Pen and paper!" Xiao Fan said simply.
As soon as he finished speaking, someone immediately presented a high-quality weasel hair pen and paper. Mu Yang personally took them and placed them in front of Xiao Fan.
Xiao Fan didn't waste any time. He immediately picked up the brush and, in just a few breaths of time, he wrote down all the pill recipes that could repair the Blood Escape Art that had been burning for three hundred years, five hundred years, one thousand years, two thousand years, three thousand years, and five thousand years.
As soon as the pen fell, the various Sect Masters of the various great sects of the Great West Prefecture eagerly took the pill formulas and carefully studied them. Their brows were furrowed. Not only were they looking at the detailed age of the medicinal herbs written on the pill formulas, but they were also thinking about the refining method of the Soul Replenishing Pill.
"Although the Soul Replenishing Pill can repair the cultivation that has been burned by the Blood Escape Technique, it is only effective once!" At this moment, Xiao Fan spoke again and nodded. "If you use the Blood Escape Technique to burn your cultivation again after repairing it, then the Soul Mending Heavenly Pill will be ineffective!"
"The Soul Replenishing Pill is not an omnipotent divine pill that can be casually abused!"
"It can only be effective once. After the second time, it will be ineffective!" Upon hearing Xiao Fan's words, the various great sects of the Great West Prefecture immediately raised their heads and looked at Xiao Fan. Then, they nodded solemnly, and the excitement on their faces immediately diminished.
Previously, they had indeed subconsciously thought that the Soul Replenishing Pill could be consumed without limit. If that was the case, then the Blood Escape Technique could be used without limit. If the Blood Escape Technique could be used without limit, then as long as they mastered the Soul Replenishing Pill, they would almost have an immortal body.
If they couldn't win, they could just burn their cultivation and escape. After escaping, they could consume the Soul Replenishing Pill and recover to their original state. How could they imagine such a situation?
However, the truth was regrettable. The Soul Replenishing Heavenly Pill was only effective once. It was impossible for the imagined situation to appear in the world.
But thinking about it, if the Soul Replenishing Pill was really so heaven-defying, then the entire Central imperial realm would probably undergo a drastic change. Countless terrifying forces that dominated the Central imperial realm would shift their terrifying gazes over. How could the Great West Prefecture, one of the Eighteen Prefectures of the Spirit Domain, be the first to get their hands on the pill?
Everything in the world was like eating and drinking. There were gains and losses, and it was almost impossible to be perfect.
"Once is enough!" After thinking this through, the Sect Master of the Long River Sect, Zhao Zhiping, and the other Sect Masters of the Great West Prefecture calmed down and muttered to themselves.
Even though the Soul Replenishing Pill could only be used once, it could still restore some of the Laozu Sect's cultivators to their original state. This Soul Replenishing Pill was still a rare and peerless divine pill.
"Alright, I've given you the pill formula. Next, it depends on what kind of herbs you can gather. If you can gather herbs that can restore three hundred years of cultivation, then I can only refine the Soul Replenishing Pill that can restore three hundred years of cultivation!" Xiao Fan said again, "If you can really gather herbs that can restore five thousand years of cultivation, then I'll refine the Soul Replenishing Pill that can restore five thousand years of cultivation!"
"The right to decide what level of Soul Replenishing Pill can be refined is in your hands!"
"Understood!" The Sect Masters of the Great West Prefecture held the pill formula written by Xiao Fan tightly in their hands, then looked at Xiao Fan and nodded solemnly.
"Next, it's time to talk about my conditions!" Xiao Fan continued unhurriedly, "You can provide the herbs yourself. I'll refine the pill for you. As for the reward, I don't want money. I only want heavenly treasures!"
"Heavenly treasures?" The Sect Masters of the Great West Prefecture narrowed their eyes.
"That's right, heavenly treasures!" Xiao Fan nodded and said, "The more precious the heavenly treasures are, the higher the level of the Soul Replenishing Pill that can be refined!"
"You'd better not hide it or be reluctant to take it out, because if you can't provide the corresponding heavenly treasures, then even if you gather the herbs that you want to refine the Soul Replenishing Pill, I won't refine it for you!"
"Which is more important, the treasures or the people in your sect? You can decide for yourself and weigh the pros and cons!"
Hearing Xiao Fan's words, the Sect Masters of the Great West Prefecture did not speak. They all fell silent as thoughts flashed through their minds like lightning.
Xiao Fan was right. This was a multiple-choice question. Whether to keep the heavenly treasures or to keep the people, it all depended on the individual's will.
However, this choice was really not easy to make because everyone was greedy. Everyone wanted to have the best of both worlds. Everyone wanted to keep everything. Therefore, when the time came, the choice was probably not something that could be decided in a short period of time.
"In addition, I'm warning you. Don't even think about attacking me or playing hard!" Xiao Fan glanced at the Sect Masters of the Great West Prefecture again and said calmly, "Because my principle is that if you play soft with me, I'll play soft with you too. If you play hard with me, I promise to play hard with you too."
"Moreover, once you start playing hard with me, don't even think about turning back. If you can continue to turn back, then play soft with me!"
"I've said what I need to say. You're on your own now. Don't come looking for death!"
"Young Master Xiao, you're being too serious. Why would we do such a thing?" Seeing Xiao Fan's warning, the sect leaders of the various sects in the Great Western Prefecture laughed and spoke one after another.
Xiao Fan did not say much about this and only shook his head.
"Young Master Xiao, what kind of heavenly treasures would require you to refine a 1,000-year-old, 2,000-year-old, 3,000-year-old, or even 5,000-year-old Soul Replenishing Pill? How do you differentiate the grades of the heavenly treasures? "The Purple Cloud Hall Master asked and asked.
"After you're done collecting the medicinal herbs, you just need to bring the heavenly treasures over!" Xiao Fan said. "As for what kind of heavenly treasures would require me to refine different grades of Soul Replenishing Pill, that's up to me!"
"Don't worry, I won't deliberately lower the grade of the heavenly treasures in your hands. You can obviously ask me to refine a 2,000-year-old Soul Replenishing Pill, but I'll only refine a 1,000-year-old Soul Replenishing Pill for you!"
Upon hearing Xiao Fan's words, the Sect Masters of the Great West Prefecture all laughed and said, "Of course!"
However, although they said that, it was obvious that a strange light flashed in their eyes. It was obvious that they did not really have absolute trust in Xiao Fan.
Of course, this was normal. Xiao Fan had only met them for less than an hour. Did they know each other before this?
Since they had never met and did not know each other, it was already good enough that they could reach a consensus and negotiate a deal. If they wanted to further their mutual trust, it could only be described as a fantasy!
"Alright, that's all I have to say. Go and prepare the medicinal herbs and heavenly treasures. I'll give you two days at most. After two days, I'll leave this place!" Xiao Fan stood up and turned around. "If you can't decide in two days, then no one can do anything about it!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Fan planned to leave and return to the elegant courtyard to rest.
However!
"Young Master Xiao, please wait!" The Southern Zhou Clan Master spoke again and said to Xiao Fan's back.
"Speak!" Xiao Fan stopped in his tracks and turned to look at the Southern Zhou Clan Master.
"I think Young Master Xiao needs something like heavenly treasures. Therefore, if I tell Young Master Xiao that the Chaotic Heart Ridge is about to open, would Young Master Xiao be willing to stay in the Great Western Prefecture for a few more days?" The Southern Zhou Clan Master said with a smile. "Because Young Master Xiao only gave us two days to gather the medicinal herbs and decide what grade of heavenly treasures we should use as the reward for Young Master Xiao's alchemy. This time is indeed too short."
"Therefore, Young Master Xiao might as well try to enter the Chaotic Heart Ridge. Not only can you obtain some treasures there, but we'll also have more time to prepare. It's the best of both worlds!"
"What do you think, Young Master Xiao?"
"Chaotic Heart Ridge?" Hearing this name, Xiao Fan did not immediately answer the Southern Zhou Clan Master's words. Instead, his eyes narrowed slightly.
When Xiao Fan was living in the Eastern Spirit Lower State, he had heard of the Chaotic Heart Ridge in the Spirit Domain. It was said that this was a place that only opened once every hundred years. Not only were there all kinds of heavenly treasures, but there were also divine herbs. It was a rare treasure land.
However, Xiao Fan did not care too much about the exact location of the Chaotic Heart Ridge. Because he was in the Eastern Spirit Domain, which was the largest region, and the treasures in the Eastern Spirit Domain were enough for him to wander around. How could he have the time to travel such a long distance to find the Chaotic Heart Ridge in the Spirit Domain?
But now, he did not expect that the Chaotic Heart Ridge was in the Great Western Prefecture and was about to open. This was really unexpected.
As for whether he should go or not, Xiao Fan planned to go. Although he was about to find Xuan Luo and the others, he had prepared many defensive measures before entering the State Gate. Moreover, this was not the Central State, but the Lower State. The danger level was greatly reduced. Therefore, although he was about to find them, it was not the most important thing.
Besides, the reason why Xiao Fan wanted heavenly treasures was firstly to recover his strength, and secondly, to feed the Akira Yuki. In the end, after considering all these factors, he really had to make a trip to the Chaotic Heart Ridge.
