"These are the Metal Conjuration Art and Earth Conjuration Art of the Five Elements. Both of you can only choose one each. Don't be greedy." Yue Qianchou's gaze moved between the two of them. He asked indifferently, "Who will choose the Metal Conjuration Art and who will choose the Earth Conjuration Art?"
The two of them looked at each other and hesitated. In the end, Zhang Peng cupped his hands at Hong Qi and said, "Senior Apprentice Brother, you choose first."
Hong Qi chuckled. He wanted to choose first, but in front of his master, how could he not maintain the demeanor of a Senior Apprentice Brother? He immediately cupped his hands and replied, "Junior Apprentice Brother, you choose first!"
"Senior Apprentice Brother should choose first."
"Junior Apprentice Brother should choose first."
The two of them politely pushed the responsibility around, but they couldn't come up with a decision. Yue Qianchou couldn't stand it anymore. He raised his eyebrows and snorted coldly, "There's an order of seniority. Senior Apprentice Brother before Junior Apprentice Brother."
With this as the basis, the two of them naturally couldn't push the responsibility around anymore. Hong Qi smiled sheepishly and asked Zhang Peng for his opinion, "Should I choose the Metal Conjuration Art?" He often mingled in the human world and heard that Yue Qianchou used the Metal Conjuration Art to shock the cultivation world. Of course, he didn't know that it was the Metal Conjuration Art before. Now that he knew, he couldn't help but covet it.
"Alright! Then I'll choose the Earth Conjuration Art. "Zhang Peng agreed readily. After confirming their choices, the two of them looked at their master eagerly, waiting for his approval.
Yue Qianchou didn't interfere with their choice anymore. He said to Hong Qi, "Wait here obediently." Without waiting for Hong Qi's reply, he waved his sleeve at Zhang Peng and the two of them disappeared into thin air, leaving Hong Qi waiting alone.
On the yellow plain of the Eastern Holy Land, two people suddenly appeared. A gust of wind blew past, swirling the yellow dust around. Zhang Peng looked around, but he didn't know where he was.
Yue Qianchou waved his hand and pointed at the vast yellow plain, "Remember! Yellow soil is the best place to cultivate the Earth Secret Art. " Without waiting for Zhang Peng's reply, Zhang Xuan pointed his finger downward, and the yellow plains trembled. A crack tore open in the ground, and the master and disciple fell into it.
After descending to a depth of nearly a hundred meters, Yue Qianchou pushed his palms to the left and right, and an underground space that was more than ten meters wide instantly formed. Then, he put his palms together, and the cracks on both sides of the ground trembled again. Zhang Peng looked up at the sky in surprise and joy. The ray of light above him gradually disappeared, leaving the ground pitch black.
Yue Qianchou casually scattered a handful of fluorescent stones, and the spherical underground space suddenly lit up. The master and disciple then sat cross-legged facing each other. After Zhang Peng had calmed down and his mind was clear, Yue Qianchou began to explain the cultivation method of the Earth Formula to Zhang Peng in detail.
After Zhang Peng memorized and comprehended it, he immediately sat cross-legged and closed his eyes to enter a state of cultivation. Yue Qianchou secretly returned to Utopia.
In Utopia, Hong Qi, who had been waiting for a long time, was feeling gloomy about how much longer he had to wait. When he suddenly saw his master appear alone, he looked around and asked, "Master, where's Junior Brother Zhang Peng?"
Yue Qianchou didn't waste his breath on him. He enveloped him with his divine senses, and the two of them moved together. Hong Qi felt the scene before his eyes change, and he discovered that he was in a majestic and huge golden square. A golden altar stood in the middle of the golden square, appearing extremely mysterious. An ancient and vicissitude aura surged toward him from all directions.
Hong Qi looked around and saw tall mountain basins surrounding the huge golden square, giving off a huge pressure. The strangest thing was that there were rainbow-colored clouds drifting in the sky above the mountain basins. However, they stayed in the sky above the mountain basins and didn't invade the mountain basins.
Hong Qi had a nagging feeling that the rainbow-colored clouds were somewhat familiar. He suddenly thought of something and turned to ask in surprise, "Master, could this place be inside the Fog Forest?"
"That rainbow-colored cloud is the Soul Transformation Smoke. Even immortal cultivators from the Immortal World will die with a single touch. I've never heard of a way to save them. You'd better behave yourself and not touch them. If anything happens, I won't be able to save you. " Yue Qianchou casually pointed to the altar in the middle of the golden square and said, "That's the legendary Immortal Ascension Stage. Don't touch the things there. If you cause any trouble, I won't let you off. Do you hear me? "
"Uh … I'll remember," replied Hong Qi as he shrunk his head back. Speaking of the Immortal Ascension Stage, he had naturally heard of the story of how the various countries had sent nearly 10,000 people to hunt down his master. In the end, his master had killed thousands of them, and in the end, his master had been forced to flee to this place.
To think that his master would come to such a forbidden place as he wished. No wonder his master was the number one expert in the world! Hong Qi looked at Yue Qianchou with even more admiration. He had been taken away by Yue Qianchou since he was a child. In his heart, besides being his master, Yue Qianchou had more or less treated him like a father. Therefore, he would often show off in front of Yue Qianchou and enjoy the pleasure of being beaten or kicked.
It wasn't that he was a pervert, but he subconsciously hoped to find the kind of fatherly love that was missing. Now that his master was in charge of the Demon Domain and had the prestige of being the number one expert in the world, he felt even more honored and proud to have such a master.
"Remember, the reason why I brought you here is because the environment here is indispensable for cultivating the Gold Incantation. Once you've mastered it, you'll naturally understand the mysteries here. Sit down cross-legged and listen to your master's teachings! "shouted Yue Qianchou.
Hong Qi immediately sat down excitedly and quickly calmed his mind and entered a state of concentration. Yue Qianchou then explained the cultivation mysteries of the Gold Incantation in detail. After familiarizing himself with it, Hong Qi quickly entered a state of cultivation.
After the teachings, Yue Qianchou would occasionally return to the World Chamber of Commerce to take a look. The rest of his time was spent shuttling back and forth between the Yellow Soil Plain and the Golden Plaza, checking on the two's cultivation progress. Speaking of which, the two of them were lucky. Back then, Yue Qianchou had put in a lot of effort in order to figure out these two sets of incantations. It was only by chance that he had the opportunity to successfully comprehend them. On the other hand, Zhang Peng and Hong Qi picked up a ready-made advantage without any danger. This was the benefit of being a disciple.
A few days later, Zhang Peng was the first to successfully cultivate the Earth Incantation. He broke through the ground of the Yellow Soil Plain and excitedly flew to Yue Qianchou in the air to bow. Yue Qianchou raised his hand and pressed it on Zhang Peng's shoulder. He injected his divine sense into Zhang Peng's dantian to check and found that Zhang Peng's cultivation had indeed directly soared from the Tribulation Stage to the Soul Formation Stage.
However, he immediately frowned. According to the signs of success in cultivating the Earth Incantation, a yellow crystal bead should have formed in his dantian. However, there was no bead in Zhang Peng's dantian. What was going on?
Seeing his master frown, Zhang Peng hesitantly asked, "Master, is there a problem?"
Yue Qianchou shook his head, indicating that there was no problem. He had been supervising their cultivation, so there shouldn't be any mistakes in the process. He wanted to see the results after Hong Qi mastered it.
After bringing Zhang Peng back to the Utopia military camp, Yue Qianchou went to the golden square again. He saw that Hong Qi was looking at the hanging golden horn on the golden altar and pondering about something. Yue Qianchou then let out a cold snort. Hong Qi heard the sound and looked over. When he saw that it was him, he immediately rushed over dejectedly and bowed. "Master!"
Yue Qianchou placed his hand on him and injected his divine sense to check. He discovered that Hong Qi, who had also advanced to the Soul Formation Stage, did not have a crystal bead in his dantian. He heaved a sigh of relief. He believed that it should be because he had cultivated a technique alone.
Then, he brought Hong Qi back to the Utopia military camp. When the two of them met in the meeting room, they realized that each other's cultivation levels had increased tremendously. They could not help but click their tongues, lamenting how powerful the technique that their master had imparted to them was.
Yue Qianchou looked at the two of them, who were in high spirits and could not contain their joy. He said calmly, "I've already imparted the Metal Art and Earth Art to the two of you. You'll have to figure out how to use them to fight the enemy. My master, who is your grandmaster, once told me that those who are good at using them are invincible! This sentence has always been my classic, and I'll tell you the same thing now. I hope that you can use the Metal Art and Earth Art well and unleash their greatest power. "
At the mention of his grandmaster, Zhang Peng only showed respect on his face and did not feel much. However, Hong Qi had been out there for so many years, so he knew how terrifying his grandmaster, Bi Changchun, was. He was a legend in the cultivation world!
"We'll follow Master's teachings." The two of them bowed respectfully.
Yue Qianchou had many things to do at the moment, so he did not have the time to chat with the two of them. He took out a pill with a black halo and placed it on the table. A rich fragrance quickly filled the room. "Zhang Peng, find a reliable subordinate at the early-stage of the Tribulation Transcendence to test the pill."
"Great Limit Break Pill?" Zhang Peng's eyes lit up. He had seen the pill recipe before, so he naturally knew that the Great Limit Break Pill was an immortal pill that could increase one's cultivation level. It seemed that his master was prepared to use this. He immediately cupped his fists and said, "Yes," before quickly leaving.
Great Limit Break Pill? Hong Qi's eyes stared at the pill on the table. He had used the Limit Break Pill before, so when he heard about the Great Limit Break Pill, he could not help but mutter to himself. He did not know what his master was up to.
Not long after, Zhang Peng returned with a burly subordinate. When the person saw that Yue Qianchou was actually here, he was slightly surprised and bowed. "Leader!"
Yue Qianchou nodded, then pointed at the pill on the table and smiled. "This is a new Great Limit Break Pill that I refined. Its effect is equivalent to the Limit Break Pill. I want to see how much it can increase your cultivation level." With that said, he placed a storage bag on the table, knocked on the table, and said, "Let's start on the table! There are enough Spirit Stones in the bag for you to use. "
Hearing this, Hong Qi's eyes lit up. It was indeed a treasure that could increase one's cultivation level.
"Yes!" The person cupped his fists excitedly, then gently floated to the table and sat down cross-legged. He casually picked up a pill beside him, put it in his mouth, then closed his eyes and began to circulate the pill. Yue Qianchou and the other two stared at him without blinking …
Not long after, the person's body trembled, and his cheeks began to flush red. Then, his entire face turned red. Even his hands, which were placed on his knees, became bright red. Steam began to rise from his head. That person's eyes suddenly opened, only to see that his eyeballs had also turned blood-red. He quickly took out two large handfuls of spirit stones from the storage bag on the table, and found that they were both shining purple top-grade spirit stones. His body couldn't help but tremble.
"Don't think too much, focus on your task." With a shout from Yue Qianchou, the person immediately closed his eyes and began to frantically absorb the majestic Spirit Qi from the Spirit Stones in his hands. After a long time, not long after the redness on his body disappeared, the person's body shook. He looked at the three people who were staring at him with surprise and said, "I broke through to the middle stage of the Tribulation Passing stage."
"Let's see how many Spirit Stones you used." Yue Qianchou said. He had to know the number of Spirit Stones used for each level of cultivation, because many people would soon take the Restriction Breaking Pill. He had to act according to his ability.
Zhang Peng immediately went to count. The person had grabbed two handfuls of nearly thirty Spirit Stones, and eight of them had exhausted their Spirit Qi. Zhang Peng reported, "I used a little more than eight Spirit Stones, which is equivalent to eighty thousand Upper Spirit Stones."
"Take another pill and continue." Yue Qianchou nodded at the person with a smile.
That person immediately did as he was told and swallowed another Great Restriction Breaking Pill. After that, the side effect of taking the pill was exactly the same as before. His whole body was like a cooked red prawn. Just as he grabbed two more Spirit Stones, his chest suddenly heaved up and down, and he couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood.
What shocked them was that the blood he spat out was a little black, which was obviously not normal. The person was more or less frightened. Yue Qianchou shouted again, "Don't worry, this is the poison that was expelled from your body. Continue!"
The person had to slowly close his eyes and continue to absorb Spirit Qi to increase his cultivation. Even if Yue Qianchou didn't tell him, he still had to do it. At this moment, his body was like a big furnace, and he urgently needed to use Spirit Qi to cool it down. Otherwise, he would die from the heat …
After a long time, when the color of his body returned to normal, his body shook again, and he suddenly opened his eyes. He couldn't help but stutter with joy, "I … I broke through to the late stage of Tribulation Passing."
This time, there was no need for Yue Qianchou to say anything. His eyes were already staring at the pill on the table, and his chest was rising and falling a little quickly. One should know that if he could go one step further, his cultivation would enter the ranks of the legendary Spirit Severing experts. This temptation was a little big, but he didn't dare to be greedy. He looked at the leader with a questioning gaze.
Zhang Peng took the initiative to count the spirit stones, and after counting, he reported, "Twenty-four pieces of top grade spirit stones were used, equivalent to two hundred and forty thousand high grade spirit stones."
Yue Qianchou nodded, walking to the table and took out another interspatial pouch, placing it in front of the person with a smile, "Spirit Severing and Tribulation Passing are two completely different concepts, I'm sure the amount of spirit stones used is not small." He took out a handful of shiny black spirit stones and waved it in front of the person, continuing, "Use divine grade spirit stones to continue!"
The group exchanged a look, this was the first time for Zhang Peng and Hong Qi to see divine grade spirit stones, so they couldn't help feeling shocked.
"Yes!" The person complied and swallowed the Great Restriction Breaking Pellet once more. The side effects that came with it caused him to spit out two mouthfuls of blood, and this time, the blood he spat out was much darker than before. However, the person didn't mind it, he believed that it was the poison that was expelled from his body. He grabbed two handfuls of divine grade spirit stones and absorbed the spiritual energy in his body, rushing towards the Spirit Severing Realm.
In fact, Yue Qianchou knew that the black blood he spat out wasn't the poison that was expelled from his body, but a sign that the poison had worsened after taking the Great Restriction Breaking Pellet. If the poison in his body accumulated to a certain extent, and he didn't take the Marrow Cleansing Pellet in time, it wouldn't take long for him to die. Fortunately, Yue Qianchou had already prepared the Marrow Cleansing Pellet, but he wouldn't say anything now, lest it affect the effect of the pill test.
Zhang Peng had come into contact with the contents of the pill, so he knew the inside story. However, he was born as a warlord, and when he commanded thousands of soldiers on the battlefield, he paid the smallest price in exchange for the greatest victory. Even if he failed the Elixir Trial, for the sake of the overall interests of Utopia's army, one or two deaths were nothing. Of course, this didn't mean that he didn't love his subordinates, but from his point of view, the sacrifice of one or two people in exchange for the success of all his subordinates was the greatest love.
After a long period of time, the person suddenly sat there with his eyes closed, and his body was trembling non-stop. Instantly, the master and disciples, including Yue Qianchou, were shocked, thinking that something had gone wrong. Yue Qianchou was about to take a look, but who knew that the person would open his eyes and look at him excitedly, "Leader! I … I broke through to the early Spirit Severing Realm. "
Yue Qianchou was stunned, thinking that something had gone wrong with the person. He raised his hand speechlessly at Zhang Peng. Zhang Peng immediately counted the spirit stones in the person's hand, removing the one that had exhausted all of its spiritual energy, and said, "One divine grade spirit stone was used, worth 100 million high grade spirit stones."
"Continue!" Following Yue Qianchou's order, the person took another Great Restriction Breaking Pellet. That person took another Restriction Breaking Pill and spat out three mouthfuls of blood. Each mouthful was as black as ink.
The Great Restriction Breaking Pellet's effect was indeed very good, using only three divine grade spirit stones to raise the person's cultivation to the mid-stage Spirit Severing Realm. This was the result of using medicinal pellets to convert spiritual energy, as well as a large amount of spirit stones.
However, what worried Yue Qianchou the most was that although the person sitting on the table was excited, he could see that the bones under his skin were dark green. Clearly, the poison was not light. Yue Qianchou was afraid that this person wouldn't be able to take it if he continued. After all, this person was his subordinate ah!
Hong Qi wasn't a fool either. Noticing the abnormality under the person's skin, it was obvious that this person was poisoned. Looking at the remaining Great Restriction Breaking Pellets on the table, he sucked in a breath of cold air.
Zhang Peng clearly saw through his Master's worry. Gritting his teeth, he glared at the excited person and ordered, "Continue to breakthrough to the late-stage Spirit Severing Realm!"
"Yes!" Unaware of his own condition, the person swallowed another Great Restriction Breaking Pellet. What happened next was four mouthfuls of black blood that carried a faint stench.
Fortunately, that person actually used nine divine grade spirit stones to really break through to the late-stage Spirit Severing Realm. However, the skin on his body was already dark purple, and there were even slight swelling. This was a sign that he was on the verge of dying.
However, his gaze shifted back to the Great Restriction Breaking Pellets on the table, and the greed in his nature was exposed. Breaking through to the late-stage Spirit Severing Realm, his heart yearned for a higher realm.
Yue Qianchou swept his sleeve, collecting all the remaining Great Restriction Breaking Pellets on the table. He then took out a marrow-colored Marrow Cleansing Pellet and passed it to the person, shouting, "Quickly swallow it, dissolve the accumulated poison in your body."
The person was stunned for a moment after receiving the Marrow Cleansing Pellet. Looking at his palm that was so dark that it was turning purple and swollen, he was dumbfounded. Yue Qianchou's voice sounded again, "Quickly swallow it if you don't want to die."
