Late at night, in the Lian tribal clan's Patriarch compound.
"Peng!"
The compound's door was pushed open and a handsome young man walked out.
"Chengyu, why did you come out?"
The Patriarch stood up when he saw the young man. Lian Chengyu had previously said that he would be in reclusive training until the Tai Ah Divine Kingdom's warrior selection began.
In less than a month, Lian Chengyu had come out of reclusion.
"I encountered some problems with my cultivation …"
Lian Chengyu did not look good. His original plan was to use two months to build up his foundation before using the desolate bones essence to break through to the Purple Blood realm!
By doing so, he would have a solid foundation and enough accumulation. Once he broke through to the Purple Blood realm, he would reach the peak of the early stages of the Purple Blood realm. He would then be able to look down on his peers in the early stages of the Purple Blood realm. It would also be beneficial for him to break through to a higher realm in the future!
The Tai Ah Divine Kingdom's warrior selection placed great emphasis on the warrior's foundation and accumulation. If Lian Chengyu could do this, he would be recognized by the Tai Ah Divine Kingdom's officials in the selection and achieve a dazzling result.
However, things did not go as he wished. Despite emptying the Lian Clan Herb Mountain, Lian Chengyu's cultivation progress was slow!
Lian Chengyu believed that he had reached a bottleneck.
Sometimes, reclusive training's mentality was very important. With a good mentality, strong confidence and perseverance, it was easy to break through.
And if he thought that there was a problem with his cultivation, or that he had reached a bottleneck, he would inevitably lose his drive, making it difficult for him to break through.
This psychological impact was not that great, but Lian Chengyu's cultivation was already facing the problem of insufficient resources. Now, it was one disaster after another, causing Lian Chengyu's cultivation progress to slow down. Finally, he chose to come out of reclusion early.
By changing his mindset and resting for a while, he would obtain the desolate bones essence and enter reclusive training again, breaking through to the Purple Blood realm in one go.
This was Lian Chengyu's plan. This idea was reasonable. Sometimes, when one failed to break through, stopping would give them a wonderful insight. It was also possible to break through unknowingly.
"How's the refinement of the desolate bones?"
Lian Chengyu asked the question he was most concerned about. This desolate bone was related to his life!
"Yes, it's still going well, but … the poor people who were refining the desolate bones a few days ago were poisoned. I wanted to let them hold on for a few more days, but seeing that they were about to die, I had to give them Blood Thinning Pills. They have already recovered, and it will not affect the refinement of the desolate bones."
After Lian Chengyu heard this, he frowned, "This bunch of trash is really useless. It's only been a few days and they can't stand the poison of the Frost Python desolate bones! After eating the Blood Thinning Pill, they will overdraft their life force. According to this situation, they will die before the desolate bones are completely refined! "
Lian Chengyu's words were cold and heartless. The Patriarch felt it was too much, he said, "Chengyu … your demands are too high. These people don't have enough to eat or wear. How could they withstand the Frost Python's poison? They have sacrificed themselves for the Lian tribal clan. In the future, when you are successful, you have to take care of their families."
"Got it." Lian Chengyu replied with a deadpan expression, "I'm just worried that the refinement of the desolate bones won't be completed in time. If these people die too early, it will affect the refinement process. Grandpa, pass down the order to gather more people in the tribe. With more people, they can share the burden of the Frost Python's poison and hold on for longer. Although the Blood Thinning Pill is not an expensive medicine in a large tribe, we have already spent most of our money. Even the Blood Thinning Pills should be used sparingly. "
Lian Chengyu said casually. The old patriarch sighed when he heard this. He knew that for every person recruited, it was equivalent to losing one more life.
The poor poor people were still fighting to be the first to refine the desolate bones because of the cured meat.
"For the Lian tribal clan, we have to do this …" The Patriarch shook his head, "What a pity. If there were non-poisonous desolate bones, then there wouldn't be so many deaths."
"Non-poisonous desolate bones?" Lian Chengyu sneered, "With our tribe's wealth, and the incomplete manual I obtained, how could we exchange for non-poisonous desolate bones?"
"Besides, the Frost Python desolate bones are not poisonous. It only contains a Frost Qi that is hard to dissolve. Once it enters a person's body, it will freeze their organs, causing them to slowly lose their vitality. If there was a Desolate Heaven Master, they could easily dissolve the Frost Qi in the Frost Python desolate bones. But why would a Desolate Heaven Master detoxify such a low-grade desolate bone? And it's even more impossible for them to come to our Lian tribal clan! "
"So the young masters of the large tribes are unwilling to use such desolate bones. This Frost Python desolate bone is the cheapest type of desolate bones, so it's my turn to use it!! Just like the leftover bones of the rich are fed to the dogs, to the large families, I'm like a stray dog that eats the food they throw away! "
Lian Chengyu said the last sentence in a self-deprecating manner. His mouth twitched as he clenched his fists tightly, his nails digging into the flesh of his palms.
He hated!
The young masters and ladies of the large families would pick and choose which desolate bones to use. Those with side effects were not used, and those with poor effects were not used!
But for him, even if it was just a piece of Frost Python desolate bone that was rejected by others, he had to expend a great deal of effort and all his wealth!
To pour all his hopes into a piece of desolate bone with severe side effects, risking his life to swallow it, just thinking about it was pathetic!
"Chengyu, it has been hard on you all these years. But you also know that the elites of the large family clans are the minority. And even in the large family clans, there are many disciples with poor talent. They can't even get much desolate beast meat …"
The Patriarch felt guilty. He knew that Lian Chengyu had good talent, but the Lian tribal clan was too poor and could not afford to raise him. All these years, although Lian Chengyu did not say it, the Patriarch knew that Lian Chengyu had always held a grudge against the Lian tribal clan.
Lian Chengyu found it hard to listen to the Patriarch's words. He said, "Grandpa, you don't have to comfort me. Heaven and Earth are heartless, treating all living things as dogs. Since this world is unfair, then I will use my own strength to win for fairness! Sooner or later, I will be the master of my own fate, and the fate of others! In the future, I will trample all the disciples of the large families under my feet! "
"I understand." The Patriarch sighed. "Tomorrow, I will send out an announcement to send more people to refine the desolate bones. As for how many people will die, I don't care. With more people, they will help you absorb more Frost Qi … When the time comes for you to consume the desolate bones, the danger will be minimized."
The Patriarch knew that to Lian Chengyu, he could not bear to let a few poor people die for him.
Lian Chengyu hated the unfairness of Heaven. He felt that he was already extremely unlucky, so why would he care about the misfortune of others?
In Lian Chengyu's eyes, those poor people were just ants. Lian Chengyu even saw himself as a slightly bigger ant.
