Along the way, Long Ao relied on the energy refined by Long Fu in the blood pool to rapidly increase his strength.
He had to admit that a Xiantian Beast Core contained a huge amount of energy. Even with the bottomless pit of the Saint's Desolation Physique, Long Ao's cultivation had reached the peak of the Ninth Heavenly Layer. But if he wanted to break through to the Tenth Heavenly Layer, a Xiantian Beast Core was far from enough.
A Xiantian Beast Core was not enough?
Thinking that his Saint's Desolation Physique was a bottomless pit, Long Ao's face revealed a deep sense of helplessness.
"Master, if possible, I would like to refine a soul slave for you."
Soul slave?
Long Fu was very curious about the soul slave that Long Ao had been talking about. According to Long Fu, a soul slave refined with the help of the blood pool could be used to defend against enemies and would be very powerful.
"Long Fu, what are the conditions for refining a soul slave?"
"Master, the conditions for refining a soul slave are very simple. Master has to kill martial artists or spirit beasts and devour their souls. When the time comes, I will refine a soul slave. Once the refinement is successful, the soul slave's strength will increase by a third to double."
Long Ao was not happy at all because he knew that it was not easy to kill powerful martial artists or spirit beasts.
"Master, the minimum requirement for refining a soul slave is that the soul must be in the Xiantian Realm."
Sure enough, Long Ao did not continue to communicate with Long Fu because with his current strength, it was almost impossible for him to kill Xiantian martial artists or spirit beasts.
It would be a lie to say that he did not want to refine a soul slave, but Long Ao knew his own limits, so he planned to leave the matter of refining a soul slave for another day.
The Scarlet Flame Town was about a thousand miles away from the Thundercloud City. Even if the Long family rode at full speed, it still took them ten days to arrive.
The Thundercloud City was a medium-sized city in the Heavenly Star Kingdom.
The Martial Heaven Continent had a total of nine prefectures. The Tianzhou Continent had two great empires, the Flame Empire and the Thunder Empire. Under those two empires, there were countless kingdoms. They were called subordinate kingdoms. The Heavenly Star Kingdom was one of the Thunder Empire's subordinate kingdoms.
Scarlet Flame Town could not be compared to Thundercloud City. When the Long Clan's people saw the huge city walls in front of them, they all stood there stupidly, as if they could not wait any longer. Everyone entered in a single file. Long Li, who was at the very back, shook his head helplessly and did not stop them.
The Long family had their own foundation in Thundercloud City. The scale was very small, and even the courtyard they owned was very small. It couldn't be compared to the courtyard in Scarlet Fire Town.
Long family's mansion.
Long Yi, Long Li, Long Jian, Long Lin, and Long Hua were the five brothers. The second brother, Long Li, was in charge of the daily affairs of the Long family in Scarlet Fire Town, while the other four stayed in Thundercloud City to set up a foundation, hoping that the Long family could move into Thundercloud City on a large scale.
Thundercloud City, the city lord's mansion, the sixth rank Long family, the Mu family, and the Duanmu family were the four pillars of the city. Together, they controlled everything in Thundercloud City. So if the Scarlet Fire Town's Long family wanted to move into Thundercloud City on a large scale, it was practically impossible.
Long Ao's arrival made Mu Lin very happy. The mother and son talked for a few hours before Mu Lin reluctantly left.
"Ao-er, this is a gold card. There are ten million gold coins inside. I'm preparing to let you buy Spirit Gathering Pills yourself."
Taking the gold card from his father, Long Ao clearly knew that this ten million gold coins had come from selling the Spirit Beasts he had obtained. The rest had come from the family.
Ten million gold coins could only buy one Spirit Gathering Pill. It was easy to imagine how valuable it was.
Nodding, Long Ao didn't leave by himself. Instead, he brought Wang Yu Yin, Long Ziyou, Long Ao, Long Zheng, Long Fang, Long Shi, and Long Qianqian to the Pill Alliance to buy Spirit Gathering Pills.
Walking on the bustling street, Long Ziyou, Wang Yu Yin, and Long Qianqian were dazzled. They didn't have the heart to continue buying Spirit Gathering Pills.
"Yu Yin, you three stroll around. Once I buy Spirit Gathering Pills, we'll meet at the restaurant in front."
"Okay, you go. Don't worry about us." After saying that, Wang Yu Yin and the other two rushed into the crowd. In the blink of an eye, they disappeared without a trace.
Long Zheng, Long Fang, Long An, and Long Shi followed Long Ao to the Pill Alliance. In the Martial Heaven Continent, there was a kind of person above martial cultivators. That was the alchemists. Even if an alchemist wasn't a powerful martial cultivator, the pills they refined were things that every martial cultivator dreamed of obtaining.
It was precisely because of this that no one dared to provoke a powerful alchemist. As long as an alchemist used Spirit Gathering Pills as a reward, there would be many people willing to risk their lives for them.
The Pill Alliance was a three-story building. It was completely white and gave off a noble and generous feeling.
After entering the Dan Alliance, he saw that there were not many people in the huge hall. However, after thinking about it, he felt relieved. No matter what, the pills were too expensive. Not everyone could afford them.
A single Spirit Gathering Pill cost ten million gold coins. It was easy to imagine how expensive the other Spirit Gathering Pills were.
"Excuse me, is there anything I can help you with?" An extremely beautiful woman with a sweet voice and a smile on her face asked very politely.
"I want to buy a Spirit Gathering Pill. How much would it cost?"
As if she was already used to this, she replied, "Hello, one Spirit Gathering Pill costs ten million gold coins. How many Spirit Gathering Pills do you need?"
How many?
Long Ao waved his hand. A single Essence Gathering Pill had almost caused the Long family to go bankrupt, let alone a few. Even if the entire Long family was sold, they would not be able to afford a few Essence Gathering Pills.
"Please wait a moment. I'll go get some Spirit Gathering Pills for you."
Looking at the departing beauty, Long Ao waved his hand in front of the four of them. He helplessly said, "The four of you really are useless. If you don't properly cultivate, who knows what you're thinking every day. If you continue like this, it'll be very difficult for you to accomplish anything on the martial path."
At this moment, the four of them no longer had the intention to ridicule and humiliate Long Ao. In fact, Long Ao was their idol. The four of them stuck out their tongues. Just as they were about to speak, a few youths came from not far away. The one in the lead had a gloomy and cold expression. It was obvious that he looked down on them.
"I was wondering why I felt so uncomfortable today. So it's because I met a few country bumpkins. Are you the disciples of the Scarlet Fire Town's Long family?"
Seeing these people, Long Zheng and the other three's faces turned ugly. But they still nodded and replied, "Yes."
"F * ck, I knew it was the trash of the Scarlet Fire Town's Long family. Let me see, big trash, little trash. Eh, isn't this my aunt's trash son? What's your name again? Oh right, I remember now. I think it's She Ao or something. "
