211-220

Chen Xiang stroked Leng Youlan's white hair and marveled over and over in his heart. He didn't expect his own sworn sister to actually possess dragon blood!

"Chen Xiang, when I came out I sensed something good deep within the mine!" Long Xueyi grinned.

Anything Long Xueyi labeled as good should definitely be something extraordinary, Chen Xiang hastily asked, "Do you want me to find it?"

Long Xueyi said with a smug smile, "If you want to get it, you at least need to dig a hundred or so zhang. Even then, that does not necessarily mean you'll be able to find it!"

"What is it?" Chen Xiang once again asked. After all, this was just a mine, beside the crystal stones, what could possible be here?

"Emperor Crystal!" Bai Youyou and Su Meiyao both said in unison.

After Chen Xiang heard these two words, he literally jumped from shock! The Emperor Crystal was a very special and rare sentient object that had been bred in a vein, and was extremely elusive. Even in legends it has only appeared twice, and its whereabouts were completely unknown until now.

The Emperor Crystal's usage mainly lied in the fact that it specialized in determining the location of ores required for making spirit weapons. If one had the Emperor Crystal in their possession, they would easily be able to find crystal stone veins, or various other ores deposits. This ability was something that transcended logical reason, it was heaven defying!

"Quickly fetch it!" Chen Xiang hastily shouted. He knew Long Xueyi, this little dragoness, definitely had a way to get it.

"Hmmm...only if you give me a Building Foundation Dan!" Long Xueyi mischievously laughed.

"No problem, if it is really the Emperor Crystal, I'll not only give you a Building Foundation Dan, I'll also add fifty True Elemental Dans!" Chen Xiang very readily agreed. If he had the Emperor Crystal, it would allow him to find some rare ores without a doubt! Considering everything, those would definitely be good to help refine equipment.

Long Xueyi transformed into a white flash, and drilled straight into the earth. Seeing this, Chen Xiang secretly clicked his tongue, at the same time something came up in his mind, "Sister Meiyao, if this little dragon can steal things, wouldn't that be great! From now on I need to treat this little girl a bit better, I need to keep her firmly around me, she is a true treasure!"

Prior to coming here Chen Xiang had been planned to go to the Herb King Mountain, however, he still couldn't think of any way to make the Lu Family bleed. However, if he allowed Long Xueyi to loot the Herb King Mountain now, not only would he earn big time, he would also be able to make most of Lu Family cough up blood.

Long Xueyi was simply a greedy person, which was the easiest kind of people to deal with, Chen Xiang just had to give her some spirit fruits or some Building Foundation Dans from time to time, and he could make her dead set on following you around, Chen Xiang also secretly thought so.

Chen Xiang waited for a long time, soon dawn had arrived. Only then did Long Xueyi emerge from the ground, holding an exquisitely carved, peach-sized crystal!

"Indeed, this is the Emperor Crystal!" Chen Xiang said in surprise, before he readily threw a storage pouch to Long Xueyi.

As her divine sense seeped into the storage pouch, she found two Building Foundation Dans and a hundred True Elemental Dans inside! She was suddenly extremely happy and quickly handed the Emperor Crystal over to Chen Xiang, and then ate those dans with extreme relish. For once, she found Chen Xiang very handsome, he was so generous that he even gave her twice the promised reward!

"Spirit-grade equipments, brilliant-grade equipments, these are magical equipment refined by humans... However, this Emperor Crystal was naturally made by this world, ordinarily, such things are referred to as a spirit treasure. With such a mystical usage, this Emperor Crystal is definitely a spirit treasure, you need to pour some of your blood on it!" Su Meiyao explained.

As Chen Xiang's blood fell on that clear Emperor Crystal, it slightly shook and emitted a soft aura. He suddenly felt some kind of mysterious connection with the Emperor Crystal, along with a strange sensation that seemed to come out of nowhere. As he closed his eyes, he could see large pieces of clear crystal stones around him, as if he was standing in the middle of an ocean. The crystal stone mine seemed to be all around him. With the help of Emperor Crystal, he could actually clearly see every piece of ore around him.

Chen Xiang was excited and extremely happy in his heart. Now that he possessed the Emperor Crystal, not only would he be able to see these hidden crystal stone veins, he could also see ores that could be used for refining equipment. This Emperor Crystal had endless magical effects.

"This crystal stone mine is really big!" Chen Xiang grabbed that Emperor Crystal, and closed his eyes. Once again, seas of crystal stones appeared around him. These crystal stones not only had a large amount of Spirit Qi inside, it was also the currency in circulation in the martial world, there were many other usages as well!

Chen Xiang had been cautious, as not to awake Leng Youlan. These past two months she had been very tired, now only was she able to sleep like a baby. Besides, she was also refining the Earth Core Divine Fruit's energy, which made her sink into an even deeper sleep.

Although Long Xueyi was gluttonous, she had just eaten a Building Foundation Dan and ten True Elemental Dans. When Chen Xiang saw her release a small cute burp, he whispered, "Little dragon, why didn't you stayed underground for a little longer, wouldn't it be even more easier to get those crystal stone?"

"Of course I can, but I can't eat those things! That being said, they're still good stuff!" Long Xueyi replied with some irritation.

Chen Xiang lightly caressed her cheeks, smiled and said, "You can't eat them, but they can be exchanged for many other things that you can. You little dolt, why do always act like an idiot? Go grab some of them, and I'll help you exchange them for some things to eat."

Long Xueyi shook her head and said, "These crystal stones are scattered all around the place. Even after spending a lot of time, I can only fetch a little bit of it, completely not efficient."

Chen Xiang said, "Only grab high quality crystal stones. I'll guide you, specifically grab the top-grade crystal stone!"

Top-grade and high-grade crystal stones were not in circulation because they were very rare. Generally, they were used in formations and arrays as their quantity was very small, however, the Spirit Qi in them was in an extremely large quantity, not to mention they were also worth a lot.

A high-grade crystal stone could be exchanged for a hundred middle-grade crystal stones, while a top-grade one for ten thousand middle-grade crystal stones!

The top-grade crystal stone was generally deep inside the vein, and in a very meager amount. Even if one had the vein, the chance of finding it was extremely minuscule. However, with the help of the Emperor Crystal, Chen Xiang was clearly able to see there was a relatively large top-grade crystal stone in this vein!

"Good!" Long Xueyi promised, and Chen Xiang immediately described her the location in detail and made her dive down towards it.

This place was already very deep, yet the crystal stones here were very little. Chen Xiang guessed that the energy had all been absorbed by the top-grade crystal stone. After one hour or so passed, Long Xueyi finally came back.

Long Xueyi took out a column like stone glittering in white light from her storage equipment, this was the top-grade crystal stone, with an incomparably rich Spirit Qi. This chunk of top-grade crystal stone was as big as someone's thigh! Chen Xiang hastily grabbed it, and stored it inside his storage pouch. Afterwards, he once again gave a Building Foundation Dan to Long Xueyi, making this little girl so extremely happy her mouth was bent with smile.

Chen Xiang estimated this top-grade crystal could be cut into more than thousand regular pieces. In short, this single was actually equivalent to ten million crystal stones! He had once again earned a great fortune,

Chen Xiang laid on the bed until noon. Leng Youlan remained beside him, still wrapped around his waist and fast asleep. Chen Xiang didn't want to wake her up, so continued to stay still.

A Cold Qi suddenly disturbed them, as Leng Youlan was fiercely awaken. She saw Chen Xiang beside her, and immediately thought of herself sleeping with Chen Xiang for an entire night. She could not help but blush in shame.

"Brother..." Leng Youlan had not even finished her sentence before Chen Xiang said in a serious tone, "Someone's here, and this person is very strong! This Cold Qi is actually so frightening!"

Leng Youlan giggled, "Brother, you do not need to be afraid, it's my Dean!"

Leng Youlan tidied up her dress, then put on that red armor of hers. While thinking of last night when she was wearing so little and went to sleep with Chen Xiang, she slightly lowered her head as her whole face turned red; she didn't dare to look at Chen Xiang.

Chen Xiang originally thought the Dean of the Icewind Valley was mysterious like the Dean of Danxiang Taoyuan; she would never appear in public. However, contrary to his expectations, the Dean actually came here in person, and this caused him and Leng Youlan to both be somewhat surprised.

"In the end why did your Dean come here?" Chen Xiang left the room, following Leng Youlan. At this point, he suddenly felt a little cold, because the Dean continued to release an oppressive Cold Qi; these powerful figures enjoy acting like this, not only would this act as showing off, it would also scare others, not to mention it could also play a deterrent role.

Through several passages, Chen Xiang and the others arrived in a hall. Dan Yuan and the other two True Martial Realm disciples were also here; their body was slightly trembling. The walls of this hall were completely covered in frost, and in the seat of honor was a female wearing a black robe, her face covered in white muslin. Although she was wearing a gown, it still could not hide her graceful figure.

This female was exactly the Dean of the Icewind Valley!

Seeing the Dean, Chen Xiang was even more determined that this Dean and Elder Dan were same, they definitely had some kind of secret which they can't allow others to know, otherwise, they would not obscure even their eyes with white light.

Although he could not see the Dean's eyes, Chen Xiang was pretty sure the Dean was staring at him, this made him feel scared.

"Are you Chen Xiang? Not bad!" The Dean's voice was devoid of any emotions, cold as ice; anyone who heard it would feel completely scared. If the Dean appeared at night, even if she didn't release that oppressive Cold Qi, she could still scare anyone to death.

Dan Yuan and the others were all standing, they didn't dare to sit. The Icewind Valley's Dean suddenly appeared, and even in their dreams, they have not thought of this. However, it also put them at ease, they reckoned that the Icewind Valley's Dean would definitely act and intervene in the matter.

Chen Xiang was just about to salute, however, he suddenly heard Long Xueyi's exclaim, "Isn't this Sister Menger? It must be her, I'm not mistaken! If you don't believe me, you simply have to touch her body; she has fused with the Vermilion Bird Tender Thread, that is the Vermillion Bird Divine Weapon you have awaken, and it must still have some connection with you!"

Chen Xiang was petrified; the Icewind Valley's Dean was actually the Empress of the Divine Weapon Heavenly Empire! Didn't the Empress used fire? However, the Icewind Valley's Dean has such a powerful ice cold True Qi!

"So to say, she knew that you might recognize her, that's why she intentionally released Cold Qi, in order to avoid you sensing the Vermillion Bird Tender Thread!" Su Meiyao was also extremely surprised.

"It seems that this woman is same as your sister, both of them have the Fire and Ice Vein, and from the Cold Qi she's releasing, she must have at least Fire and Ice Heavenly Vein!" Bai Youyou said.

At the time when Leng Youlan went to the Extreme Martial Sect, it was precisely Elder Dan who handed over Leng Youlan to the Icewind Valley's Dean; from this, it was clear that both of them had pretty good relations!

"She is the Empress of the Divine Weapon Heavenly Empire, and at the same time, she is also the mysterious Dean of the Icewind Valley, this woman is marvellous!" Su Meiyao exclaimed.

Chen Xiang's state of mind, although it was like a turbulent sea, there was still no change in his expression as he politely said, "Brat Chen Xiang respectfully greets the Dean!"

"No need to be overly courteous!" The Dean coldly said, seeing her being so pretentious, Chen Xiang secretly had a good laugh in his heart. He very much wanted to see what kind of expression would she have when he exposed her?

At this moment, the Dean stood up and came in front of Chen Xiang and coldly asked, "Why do you have so much scent on you? This is Youlan's, were you last night together?"

Chen Xiang and Leng Youlan's were suddenly petrified; Dan Yuan and others could not help but be startled, however, they were very soon at ease. Leng Youlan and Chen Xiang were a perfect match, and although Chen Xiang had received her as his sworn sister at the surface, this kind of means were fairly common, and everyone's thoughts could not help but wander.

Leng Youlan was completely embarrassed, the blush on her face reached up to her ears, and now she didn't have that previous domineering bearing; she was truly acting like a girl.

Chen Xiang knew that the Dean was Liu Menger, that was why he was currently extremely calm. He slightly smiled and said, "Last night, she and I slept together, we have not seen each other for many years, while chatting with her we fell asleep, we are brother and sisters, there is no problem!"

"Humph, what's next! Chen Xiang, I would like to have a good talk with you alone!" The Dean angrily shouted. From her body, a Slaughter Qi broke out, however, what made her even more surprised was that Chen Xiang was still composed; there was not even a single trace of fear on his face. She could not help but admire Chen Xiang's state of mind.

"Dean… We really didn't do anything, these past two months..."

"You don't need to speak anymore, wait here for me!"

Chen Xiang, along with the Dean, came to a stone room. In his heart, he was elated; although he didn't know why the Dean seeked him alone to talk, he could expose her here without any scruples.

With both hand behind her back, the Dean looked at some murals on the wall while Chen Xiang stood behind her.

"Chen Xiang, you have big guts! You actually dared to touch a disciple of my Icewind Valley, I advise you..."

She failed to continue her as speech as Chen Xiang suddenly interrupted her. With a mischievous laugh, Chen Xiang said, "Sister Menger, you have been well since our last meeting!"

The Dean's tender body suddenly trembled, however, she suddenly got angry as she shouted, "What are you saying? Don't interrupt me!"

Suddenly,, Long Xueyi posed as Chen Xiang and spoke with a sinister laughter, "Sister Menger, I've already seen the snow white rabbits on your chest, you don't need to pretend anymore."

Chen Xiang's words once again made the Dean's body quiver; she turned around and tenderly shouted, "Don't ever speak of this again, and you're not allowed to talk about this with others!"

Chen Xiang didn't expect Long Xueyi to actually be so vicious; she directly poked Liu Menger's sore spot, however, he also didn't blame Long Xueyi.

"Hei, hei, however, I felt Elder Dan's rabbits were a little bigger than yours, a bit whiter too." Chen Xiang continued to laugh, and Liu Menger, who was putting on airs just a moment ago, was now completely speechless.

Liu Menger softly harrumphed as she took her muslin off, revealing her elegant and peerless face. Looking at her mature, tender and beautiful face, Chen Xiang couldn't help but start laughing in a mocking tone.

"Humph!" Liu Menger stamped her foot and said in a tender voice, "Elder Dan will never let you see her figure! ow do you know hers are bigger than mine? Whiter than mine? Did she let you have a look?!"

Previously, she was a Dean capable of releasing an oppressive Cold Qi, but now she was like an angry little girl; she would only complete forfeit that aloof like imposing manner and majestic aura of hers in front of Chen Xiang.

"She indeed let me have a glance!" Chen Xiang sat on the chair with his legs crossed, a proud grin was written on his face.

Liu Menger was exposed by Chen Xiang, and in her heart, she was ashamed and furious. However, she also didn't have any way to grab ahold of Chen Xiang, with a soft snort, she said, "Nonsense, which woman would casually allow others to look… look there!

Chen Xiang happily laughed and said, "Sister Menger, didn't you let me have a look? At that time, I felt very shy!

Liu Menger nibbled her lips and indignantly looked at Chen Xiang as two charming blush surfaced on her cheeks. This different kind of fascinating beauty made Chen Xiang praise over and over in his heart.

"Right, Sister Menger you seem to be very much concerned about who has bigger and whiter rabbits!"Chen Xiang laughed even more happily, while on the other hand, Liu Menger tenderly snorted again and again in anger.

"Chen Xiang, you know that I can use my True Qi. If you bully me again, I will not let it slide!" Liu Menger rebuked with a pout, looking extremely attractive, once again making Chen Xiang absent-minded.

Chen Xiang scratched his head, laughed and said, "I'd like to take a look how you won't let me slide!" While speaking, Chen Xiang unscrupulously pointed at Liu Menger's voluptuous rabbits.

Liu Menger angrily stomped her lotus-like foot and tenderly snorted. She indeed didn't have any way to grab ahold of Chen Xiang. She found herself not being able to act ruthlessly against Chen Xiang. She had lived for so long, and it was only now that she had encountered such a situation.

Chen Xiang rubbed his chin and said, "Sister Menger, aren't you just jealous? Actually, you are forbidding me to get close to Youlan, hei hei, in the end, what is in your heart?"

"You yourself don't have any good intentions! On the surface, you have taken her as your sister, but now you… Humph, Humph." Liu Menger softly said.

"Sister Menger, you're thinking too much!" Chen Xiang laughed.

Liu Menger sat on a chair beside Chen Xiang and seriously said, "Youlan, this girl, is very wild. If she follows you, the mess she will create will be no less than yours! She and you are very different, she needs to cultivate with calm heart, otherwise, in a few years, she will not be able to survive."

"In a few years? What is going to happen?" Chen Xiang asked while pretending to be surprised; he had already guessed that it was about the Great Battle of the Three Realms.

Indeed, Liu Menger spoke of the very same matter with a very solemn look, "According to words passed down by the Founder of the Divine Weapon Sect a long time ago, in a few years, a catastrophe will befall on the world. Currently, not only your Extreme Martial Sect is doing preparation, all of the factions of the Chenwu Mainland are doing the same; even those devil path sects are starting to snatch the resources!"

"That's why don't bother Youlan. Her foundation is very good, in a few years, she will certainly have decent strength, and she will be able to survive under the catastrophe."

Chen Xiang nodded his head as he took out three pieces of the Earth Core Divine Fruit and gave it to Liu Menger.

After Liu Menger saw this, her pretty eyes suddenly glittered intermittently; she could see that these fruits were very valuable.

"One piece for you, two for Xianxian! Don't eat now, wait till you go back before you eat it."

"Why only a piece for me? Unfair!" Liu Menger said with a tender snort.

Chen XIang looked at Liu Menger's chest, mischievously laughed and said, "Xianxian is my wife, of course I'm going to be biased! Besides, you're not even my girlfriend; the only reason I gave you one piece is completely because I've seen your beautiful rabbits, ha ha..."

Liu Menger's face turned red again as she said in a soft voice, "I already said that you can't mention it again!" While speaking, she stretched out her jade-like hands like a lightning bolt, knocked on Chen Xiang's head, striking it very lightly. But in her heart, she was quite reluctant to attack.

After Liu Menger received the three pieces of the Earth Core Divine Fruit, Chen Xiang once again laughed and said, "Don't steal and eat, I'll ask Xianxian."

"Don't you trust me?" Liu Menger said with a soft snort, "...I'm your wife's teacher, you're being rude to me again and again. I haven't even said a word to you."

Chen Xiang pursed his lips and retorted, "After all the things I've done, am I still treated as an outsider? Didn't I help you turn that piece of ribbon on your chest into a divine weapon."

Speaking of the Vermillion Bird Tender Thread, Liu Menger indeed felt very grateful to Chen Xiang; it had now turned into her own divine weapon. Now that it was connected with her blood and flesh, she felt a lot stronger now.

Chen Xiang asked, "Sister Menger, what is your relation with Elder Dan? Why are you dressed up as the Icewind Valley's Dean?"

"I have nothing to do with her. From the ancient times, the Icewind Valley's Dean has always been like this; it is also under the control of the Divine Weapon Sect's Dean. I've changed the Divine Weapon Sect into the Divine Weapon Heavenly Empire for better management, and it also allows me to have some time to stay in the Icewind Valley." Liu Menger replied, now that Chen Xiang have seen through her, she no longer kept her facade. For Chen Xiang, she had a kind of indescribable trust.

Perhaps it was because she knew Chen Xiang had a lot of secrets, and Chen Xiang was also the same, he too trusted Liu Menger.

"Aren't you tired of running back and forth?" After knowing the secrets of the Divine Weapon Sect and the Icewind Valley, Chen Xiang was secretly shocked.

"There is an ancient teleportation array between the Icewind Valley and the Divine Weapon Heavenly Empire. It only needs some crystal stones to activate the array and I can come and go in the blink of an eye to the Divine weapon Heavenly Empire. Don't even speak of this to anyone else." Liu Menger exhorted.

"I know, I know, I'm starting to wonder if Elder Dan also has another identity, maybe she is the Dean of Danxiang Taoyuan!" Chen Xiang rubbed his chin while pondering deeply.

Liu Menger frowned and said, "I also have the very same suspicion. Honestly, the Dean of the Danxiang Taoyuan is as mysterious as my… Icewind Valley's Dean identity."

"Last time I said my alchemy techniques are taught by the Danxiang Taoyuan's Dean, she, at that time, was pretty certain I was not speaking the truth." Chen Xiang said, "It seems that after I return, I have to ask her."

Liu Menger was slightly shocked, and after a while, she asked, "Your alchemy techniques aren't they taught to you by Elder Dan?"

Chen Xiang smiled and said, "Nope, it's someone else, this is my confidential secret."

"Humph, right, you seem to have pretty good relation with Elder Dan? Before you've said...said you've seen her..." Liu Menger, at this moment, couldn't speak any further, she suddenly found herself very intrigued about this matter.

"Fooled you, ha ha..." Chen Xiang started laughing.

Liu Menger gritted her teeth and said, "You quickly return to the Extreme Martial Sect. The devil path sect's guys will not sit still; several big sects are squeezed in just one province, they are lacking resources, and in order to cope with the oncoming storm, they are now plundering the resources everywhere. The matter here, just leave it to me!"

"En, thanks a lot, Sister Menger!" Chen Xiang smiled and said.

Liu Menger angrily said, "You yourself have said a moment ago that I shouldn't treat you as an outsider… the devil path sect and the righteous sect might be in conflict, and you ought to be careful. Don't wander around! And, from now on, you can not take Youlan to wander everywhere, don't just think about yourself, you have to think for her too."

"Also, don't go womanizing everywhere, you already have Youlan and Xianxian, aren't these two girls enough for you?" In Liu Menger's eyes, Leng Youlan had already become Chen Xiang's woman, even if their current relationship was that of brother and sister.

Chen Xiang pursed his lips and said, "Like this together with you now, doesn't it count as womanizing?"

"Of course it doesn't! You...You… stinking brat is truly...humph!" Liu Menger was speechless, as long as she was with Chen Xiang, her pace would always get swept, and she would always have to suffer a loss.

"Hei hei, Xianxian and Youlan, although both are very close to me, I haven't seen their rabbits, but Sister Menger...Ha ha..." Chen Xiang finished speaking and quickly ran out of the stone room; he only heard Liu Menger curse again and again.

Liu Menger hastily covered her face with the mask and chased Chen Xiang. She arrived behind Chen Xiang and twisted his arm for a while. Afterwards, she said in a low voice, "Don't tell Youlan about my true identity!"

[TLN: Last time we used muslin on Liu Menger's face, actually it should be mask, sorry for the mistake.]

"Give me a kiss, I'll promise you!" Chen Xiang mischievously laughed and said.

"Smelly brat, one day, I'll make you look good." Liu Menger gritted her teeth and said.

Arriving at the hall, Leng Youlan quickly walked beside Chen Xiang. After seeing the grin on Chen Xiang's face, she heaved a deep sigh. At this time, Liu Menger once again released the Cold Qi, and compared to before, it was even colder; it was evident that she was angry.

"Youlan, quickly return to the Icewind Valley, there are important things to announce!" Liu Menger coldly said.

"Dean..." Leng Youlan was somewhat reluctant; she came to Chen Xiang and said, "Brother, it seems I can't accompany you to wander the world, however, there will be opportunities!"

Chen Xiang touch those beautiful and soft white hair of hers and hugged her as he smiled and said, "En, you have to cultivate with all your efforts and elevate your strength. Next time we meet, I'll definitely test your strength!"

Leng Youlan nodded her head, at this moment, Chen Xiang moved his face closer to her cheeks and whispered in her ear, "Youlan, if the Dean dares to be violent to you, you just have to say rabbits, and she will definitely not dare to do anything to you."

"Rabbits?" Leng Youlan felt doubtful, however, she still nodded her head.

Liu Menger was a Nirvana Realm martial artist, and obviously, she heard what Chen Xiang spoke. Her tender body slightly trembled in anger; she secretly clenched her teeth. Xianxian was her only disciple, and was also Chen Xiang's wife, besides Leng Youlan could also be counted as her disciple. Although she was Chen Xiang's sworn sister, but now looking at it closely, their relationship was not that simple.

"Leave the things here to me! I'm also friends with Gu Dongchen, this is just a little bit of work for me!" Liu Menger said.

Although she and Chen Xiang have only met for a very short while, Leng Youlan was still very happy. Although she was still somewhat reluctant to part, she was completely satisfied. With a sweet smile on her face, she followed Liu Menger and left. This made Liu Menger somewhat surprised; she knew Leng Youlan was usually cold, sturdy, overbearing and wild, but now it looks like she also had emotions like ordinary girls.

At this moment, she couldn't help but think about the time she spent together with Chen Xiang... wasn't it also same? Thinking of the various things that happened with Chen Xiang, her face turned slightly red, and in her heart, complex feelings were roused.

After Liu Menger left with Leng Youlan, Chen Xiang continued to stay here, waiting for Dan Yuan to completely recover; only after that could he leave without qualms. After a few days, the Icewind Valley really sent someone; although there were only twenty, but all of these twenty were in the True Martial Realm.

After the mine was safe, Chen Xiang said goodbye to Dan Yuan and backtracked to the Extreme Martial Sect!

While Chen Xiang was flying, he was also thinking how to deal with Elder Tan's collusion with the Lu Family and the devil path sect; he must get rid of this dangerous character!

Six days passed, Chen Xiang was currently in the Taoyuan Province, flying within the clouds. Because he could not see the beautiful scenery below, he was extremely bored. Just as he wanted to fly lower for sometime, a powerful Qi suddenly shot into the sky, scattering a large number of clouds; this made him astonished. After paying a close attention, he heard sounds of fighting, and to his surprise, someone was fighting below.

Chen Xiang hid above the clouds and flew to a remote place. He landed on a high mountain and observed the ongoing battle, only to see many black robed people besieging a team of white robed people.

"Aren't they the disciples of the Danxiang Taoyuan? Are those black robed people devil path martial artists?" Chen Xiang said with uncertainty. He glided down from the top of that high mountain and took out a sword.

Those black robed people were holding bizarre weapons, and their True Qi was also very bizarre and evil. After getting closer, Chen Xiang was certain that they were devil path martial artists. Not only were they attacking the disciples of Danxiang Taoyuan, there were also the True Martial Sect's and the Beast Martial Sect's disciples.

The Extreme Martial Sect always had very good relations with the Danxiang Taoyuan; they never had any kind of conflict. Obviously, Chen Xiang was going to save them since they were currently in a very unfavorable situation. They were surrounded by many devil path martial artists, and those devil path martial artists were stronger than them.

"There are actually two 3rd level of the True Martial Realm martial artists, and it seems the devil path disciples are really desperate!" Chen Xiang took out the Azure Dragon Slaughtering Devil Blade. If he didn't use this divine blade, he could not easily resolve this. Besides, he also had to be wary of those True Martial Sect's and the Beast Martial Sect's disciples.

As he poured the Azure Dragon True Qi into the Azure Dragon Slaughtering Devil Blade, a suffocating aura suddenly flowed out; Chen Xiang brandished this domineering broadsword and rushed into the crowd, slashed down a blade strike, and drew an azure bright arc form, which emitted 'Xiu Xiu' sounds. This one strike instantly beheaded ten 10th level Mortal Martial Realm martial artists.

Chen Xiang immediately released a Qi screen; this was the [Black Tortoise Luo Tian Cover]. With this, he could have a very solid defense, along with this invisible Qi cover, those lacking in strength could not approach him; they would all feel as if they were subjected to the impact of tyrannical waves.

The Danxiang Taoyuan's disciples, after seeing someone came to help, immediately discovered that the weapon their savior used was somewhat familiar to them. They realized that it was the treasured weapon used by Chen Xiang they had heard of, making them feel relieved. When Chen Xiang had arrived, he neatly and quickly beheaded tens of 10th level Mortal Martial Realm martial artists.

Chen Xiang's Slaughtering Heart started beating, absorbing a large number of vicious Qi, and releasing an intense Slaughter Qi continuously at the same time, scaring the heart and guts of those devil path martial artists, as if they have encountered a devil god incarnate.

Chen Xiang's blade was like a thunderbolt that madly danced, killing off those devil path martial artists as they suffered crushing defeat, blasting them into pieces. In blink of an eye, only two 3rd level True Martial Realm devil path martial artists were left.

"Chen Xiang, our Transforming Bone Clan will not let you off!" A single-eyed man said while blasting a palm at the tall and thin young man beside him. The palm landed on that thin body with a frightening force, making the tall and thin young man flew towards Chen Xiang. While letting out aggrieved screams, his body turned into poisonous black water and spattered towards Chen Xiang.

Chen Xiang just stepped sideways and dodged; he didn't expect that the devil path martial artist would actually be so ruthless, sacrificing his own companion to escape.

That single-eyed man thought he could delay Chen Xiang for a while, which would allow him to quickly escape. However, before he could run too far, he suddenly felt a suffocating pressure engulfing his body from behind.

Chen Xiang, while chasing that single-eyed man, waved the Azure Dragon Slaughtering Devil Blade. With a fierce blade strike chopping downwards, an explosive sound burst out, and that single-eyed man was smashed into pieces.

The Danxiang Taoyuan's, the True Martial Sect's and the Beast Martial Sect's disciples, after seeing this, could not help but shiver. Just a few moments ago, they had fallen into a bitter struggle; if it continued to go on like that, they would have definitely been annihilated. However, they had not expected Chen Xiang to appear, and alone, he had actually beheaded all those Transforming Bone Clan's disciples.

"Is this the strength of the Extreme Martial Sect youngest and strongest martial artist ever? Worth ten million crystal stones, Chen Xiang!" A Danxiang Taoyuan's disciple exclaimed.

"It sure looks like! Although his looks seem to be very different, that broadsword is exactly the one I saw on the wanted poster!" Another man said.

While the Danxiang Taoyuan's disciples were feeling grateful, the True Marital Sect's and Beast Martial Sect's disciples were like bees rushing ahead, holding their weapons with a greedy look; they believed that with so many people, they could certainly grab ahold of Chen Xiang, and at that time, they could obtain the ten million crystal stones along with the treasured blade in Chen Xiang's hand.

"Ungrateful guys, stop them!" A Danxiang Taoyuan's middle-aged man shouted. Holding a long spear, he flew over and didn't hesitate to stab the True Martial Sect's disciples rushing towards Chen Xiang to death.

After seeing the skillful display of their leader, the Danxiang Taoyuan's disciples, one by one, also rushed and started fighting against the True Martial Sect's and the Beast Martial Sect's disciples.

"Danxiang Taoyuan senior and junior brothers, all of you come behind me!" Chen Xiang shouted; he had a completely solemn and cold expression on his face. Just a moment ago, he had saved the True Martial Sect's and the Beast Martial Sect's disciples, but not only were they ungrateful, they dared to actually attack him!

After the Danxiang Taoyuan's disciples heard Chen Xiang's shout, they immediately flew over. Although they didn't know what Chen Xiang was planning to do, they could figure out he was very impatient from his voice.

The True Martial Sect's and the Beast Martial Sect's disciples didn't know what to do after seeing Danxiang Taoyuan's disciples siding with Chen Xiang. Originally, they thought that the Danxiang Taoyuan's disciples would attack Chen Xiang just like them.

"Humph, even if I saved a dog, that dog would be wagging its tail towards me. However, you lot don't even give a word of thanks and even attack me, you're all worse than dogs!" Chen Xiang angrily cursed.

"So what!?" A True Martial Sect disciple who was ignorant of the immensity of heaven and earth shouted. He thought that with so many people on their side, they had already won. Besides, there were also several True Martial Realm disciples on their side.

A sneer appeared on Chen Xiang's face, as raging flames burst out from his body. Afterwards, he flew over to the disciples of the two sect's left in front of him. While he flew towards them, a pair of enormous [Vermillion Bird Fire Wings] appeared on his back. At this moment, the wings on Chen Xiang 's back was very similar to an actual Vermillion Bird's wings. While those fire wings grew larger and larger, he flew towards those two sects disciples.

In few seconds, Chen Xiang, ruthlessly struck that group like a large bird of prey. That group of disciples had no time to react before they were struck by the huge fire wings released by Chen Xiang. After he pierced through the crowd, the ground was still aflame, long after those disciples had been entirely burned to ashes!

This opened the outlook of the Danxiang Taoyuan's disciples, with just one charge, tens of disciples from two major sects were burned to ashes in the blink of an eye. How absolutely frightening this strength was, it was not wrong to call Chen Xiang the youngest and strongest martial artist in the history of the Extreme Martial Sect.

"Friends of Danxiang Taoyuan, I would like to return the Extreme Martial Sect as soon as possible, so I can't accompany you to the Fragrance City! Maybe next time!" Chen Xiang said with a bright laugh. He released that pair of frightening [Vermillion Bird Fire Wings] once again and flew into the sky, his figure disappeared into the white clouds in a matter of seconds.

"It seems that those rumors discredited Chen Xiang, he is not a bad guy at all!" One man said.

"Exactly, he has just offended far too many people!"

"If the opportunity presents itself, I'll definitely drink two cups with him. Let's return as soon as possible! The devil path guys are getting more and more rampant!"

Chen Xiang returned to the Extreme Martial Sect around the evening time and he immediately went to find Elder Tan. Even though it was pretty late into the evening, Chen Xiang was still warmly received by Elder Tan.

Seeing Chen Xiang came back safely, Elder Tan was extremely surprised in his heart, however, his old face was filled with warm smile, "It seems the issues have been resolved!"

Chen Xiang just nodded his head, smiled and said, "It was kind of easy, thanks for arranging such an easy mission Elder Tan! Even the mission given to me was such a high-ranked mission, to be specific, a level-6 mission, I just had to travel for a bit and easily solved it!"

Elder Tan felt extremely doubtful in his heart, because he knew an ambush from a high level martial artist was waiting for Chen Xiang. But even now, Elder Tan has yet to receive any news from the Frozen Sword City.

"That's good!" Elder Tan smiled and said.

Chen Xiang's complexion suddenly turned serious, as he spoke, "Elder Tan, during this trip I obtained a good item, but I don't know whether I should turn it in or not?"

"Oh?" Elder Tan felt somewhat doubtful, after all, if Chen Xiang got something, then why would he still speak about it?

"I know it's something marvellous, but I just can't seem to tell what it is. Elder Tan has seen and experienced many things, can you help me identify it?" Chen Xiang asked in a low tone, and took out a fist-sized of top-grade crystal stone, and handed it to Elder Tan.

Seeing the stone exuding white light, and that kind of impactful Spirit Qi in it, Elder Tan immediately recognized it was top-grade crystal stone.

"This is not top-grade crystal stone Elder Tan! Use your divine sense to carefully probe it, and you will experience a bizarre feeling. I think this might be the Emperor Crystal, I stole it from a relatively strong devil path martial artist, who had entered deep into the Extreme Martial Sect's mine." Chen Xiang explained.

Emperor Crystal! After Elder Tan heard these two words, he was stunned for a while before he immediately rejoiced and injected his divine sense completely into it. Not to mention the Emperor Crystal, even such a large piece of top-grade crystal was not so easy to see. Yet now it was delivered in his hands by Chen Xiang. With this fact alone, any shred of doubt Elder Tan held towards Chen Xiang's actions was completely removed.

After Elder Tan poured all his divine sense into the Emperor Crystal, Chen Xiang shouted to Long Xueyi with his divine sense, "Little dragon I need to borrow your power!"

"Ok!" Long Xueyi immediately agreed.

Chen Xiang quietly sneaked behind Elder Tan, and immediately took out the Azure Dragon Slaughtering Devil Blade. The instant it came out, he poured his complete Universe True Qi and the borrowed power from Long Xueyi into the blade, and cleaved downwards towards Elder Tan.

Elder Tan suddenly felt a terrifying power approaching him. He tried to dodge away, but fell somewhat short. That blade, weighing millions of jins, landed squarely on Elder Tan, cleaving him into two!

Regarding Elder Tan, Chen Xiang didn't plan to tell Gu Dongchen and others from the get-go. Chen Xiang would act first, then report later, lest Elder Tan became aware of his incoming doom and try to escape!

Afterwards, Chen Xiang headed to the Extreme Martial Mysterious Realm from Elder Tan's house, along the way, Chen Xiang encountered Wu Kaiming and reported to him what happened. He also took out those two maps as evidence, and handed it over to Wu Kaiming.

After Wu Kaiming came to learn about this incident, he was extremely furious, "What the hell is happening in the Extreme Martial Sect!? One after another, traitors keep popping up! About the mine matter, the Dean and I simply didn't know anything, or else we would have not let you go alone. Anything related to the mine has always been managed by Tan Feng, I didn't expect for him to actually hide it from me!"

"Let's go, we will go find Tan Feng!" Wu Kaiming said.

"En! But there is only his corpse left!" Chen Xiang enthusiastically smiled.

Wu Kaiming was startled for a while before saying, "Impossible..." While speaking, both of them walked towards Tan Feng's residence.

It didn't take too long for them to arrive, after seeing Tan Feng's corpse cut into two by Chen Xiang, with almost negligent amount of blood scattered, Wu Kaiming could only heave a sigh. He began to suspect whether Chen Xiang entered the Extreme State or not, he actually had the ability to behead two elders!

"You leave and rest first, the Icewind Valley's Dean has taken over the matter of Frozen Sword City, we don't need to worry about it! Leave the things here for me to clean up, I'll go talk to the Dean about it later." Wu Kaiming said. At this moment, he was feeling rather down because Lu Shang and Tan Feng were personally groomed by Wu Kaiming. He had even made them sit in the elder positions, but had not expected things to turn out like this.

Chen Xiang went to find Yun Xiaodao and the others, but learned that they all went out to do missions. Before, they hated to deal these kinds of things, but now, they had no alternative but to complete the missions because the rewards were irresistible.

After Chen Xiang returned to his own small abode in the Extreme Dan King Courtyard, he immediately went to his backyard, and raised his head to look at the Azure Profound Tree, which had already bore thirty-nine fruits! Currently, Elder Dan was sitting under the tree, while looking at the Azure Profound Flower exuding an azure aura in her hand.

"Ha ha, these fruits are very beautiful, but none of them are yours!" Chen Xiang teased.

Elder Dan stood up and said, "I have no shortage of Building Foundation Dans, you refine them yourself and enjoy!"

Chen Xiang smiled and said, "That's great! I need a bunch of Building Foundation Dans, little girl, help me gather the materials."

Thirty-nine Azure Profound Fruits meant he would need to gather thirty-nine set of herbs. He had no shortage of Thousand Vein Fruits, Metal Spirit Fruits, auxiliary herbs and monster cores. In the Black Tortoise Mysterious Realm, he had obtained enough refining materials for eight hundred Building Foundation Dans. He only asked to see whether Elder Dan really had no shortage of the Building Foundation Dans materials or not.

[TLN: We would be using monster cores instead of monster dans.]

Elder Dan shook her head, "Last time, I did everything in my power to gather the herbs. It's not like I don't want to help you, but both the Metal Spirit Fruit and the Thousand Vein Fruit are both very scarce at the moment."

Chen Xiang knew Elder Dan wasn't lying, however he had suspicions that Elder Dan was the Dean of the Danxiang Taoyuan. Otherwise, how was she able to gather such a large amount of herbs for refining Building Foundation Dans so quickly.

"Little girl, I'm going to ask you one thing. You need to answer me honestly!" Chen Xiang said. "You are already aware that I have a fire spirit, besides, I have always been good to you!"

"I can choose to answer or not!" Elder Dan replied. In her heart, she was also skeptical about what Chen Xiang wanted to ask, as he was actually being so serious right now.

Chen Xiang nodded his head in response and asked, "Are you the Dean of Danxiang Taoyuan?"

Elder Dan didn't reply or speak as she looked at Chen Xiang. At this time, he was already able to confirm his suspicions, she really was the Dean of Danxiang Taoyuan.

"Nope, I'm not the Dean of Danxiang Taoyuan! However, I'm very familiar with her!" Elder Dan denied Chen Xiang accusation, however, he was pretty sure about this matter.

"You're not lying to me?" Chen Xiang was somewhat skeptical.

"I did not lie to you! Or do you want me to take an oath?" Elder Dan said.

"Don't!" Chen Xiang started picking those Azure Profound Fruit, and then said, "Little girl, do you find the whereabouts for the materials of the Five Element True Elemental Dan?"

"I don't. If I did, I would be first to go and confirm, and buy them for you!" Elder Dan said as she sniffed the that azure flower. With just a glance, it could easily be seen that she liked this flower very much.

Chen Xiang laughed and said, "Then thanks a lot in advance! Although you acted in such a way to me before, I never hated you! Hei hei, to tell you the truth, I really want to defeat you as soon as possible. I want to see who you are in the end, and I also want to confirm whether or not what you said about your appearance is true, whether you really are as beautiful as my Xianxian!"

Elder Dan tenderly snorted, "Hmph, then you need to become strong quickly, and not get into any trouble. In a few years, a catastrophe will befall the entire world, and you need to be ready for it, so cultivate seriously!"

"If you want to gather some rare herbs, it's better for you to visit the Fragrance City of Danxiang Taoyuan, there is an auction house there! I'm going to enter into closed-door training for a while."

After Elder Dan left, Chen Xiang muttered, "Was this woman waiting for me to come back before she went into closed-door training? I truly can't understand her."

Chen Xiang also thought it was about time to cultivate peacefully. However, before that, he needed to plant trees! He did not lack Thousand Vein Fruits, Metal Spirit Fruits and other materials, however, he was short on Azure Profound Fruits! This was why he was going to plant two more of them.

He now had Golden Dragon Saliva, which should be able accelerate the insane growth even further. As long as he refined a few Building Foundation Dans, he was sure he could nurture a bunch of True Martial Realm martial artists.

Of course, it would also bring him huge amount of wealth, and he could then use that money to buy even more precious herbs.

The Extreme Dan King Courtyard was extremely calm, it only had one person present, Chen Xiang. As for Wu Qianqian, god knows where Elder Dan sent her, Chen Xiang hasn't seen Wu Qianqian for a long time.

"Now it's time for you to start learning my devil techniques! The Three Heavenly Realms will soon converge and you need to learn some powerful martial techniques to make yourself stronger!" Bai Youyou said.

Chen Xiang nodded his head, he planned to cultivate during the daytime and congeal the Golden Dragon Saliva during the night.

"My devil techniques have very high requirements for physical strength, True Qi and the divine sense. There are a total of five that are appropriate for you, out of which, you have already learned the Engulfing Devil Technique! Next, you are going to learn the Transforming Bone Devil Palm, Penetrating Heart Devil Eye, Grasping Soul Devil Curse and the Ice Spirit Devil Aura!" Bai Youyou spoke while she began passing these devil techniques onto Chen Xiang.

Using the divine sense to pass technique was not something common. Before, Chen Xiang's master, Huang Jintian, wasn't able to pass on his knowledge in such a way. Chen Xiang had read quite some books, however, he still didn't find anything resembling how these two sisters passed on their techniques. This was just another thing to add on the list for why he had suspicions that Su Meiyao and Bai Youyou were not from the Mortal World.

Transforming Bone Devil Palm, Penetrating Heart Devil Eye, Grasping Soul Devil Curse, and Ice Spirit Devil Aura! These four devil techniques sounded very formidable. Suddenly, a lot of related content retaining to these four techniques appeared in Chen Xiang's mind, regarding these four devil techniques, he now had a deep understanding.

In the devil path sect, there was a powerful force known as the Transforming Bone Clan. They could use their signature martial technique to transform the bones and flesh into poisonous water, and so the Transforming Bone Clan became known for their Transforming Bone Poisonous Palm. However, the Transforming Bone Devil Palm Chen Xiang just learned was very different from the Transforming Bone Clan's.

This Transforming Bone Devil Palm was not only used to attack humans, it could also be used to attack some very hard materials, and reducing them into nothing. If it struck someone, just their bones would be melted away, while their flesh and meridians would still be left untouched. Not only could it be used for close-range melee attack, it could be used to create a powerful long-range Qi attack, it was both a good, and an evil martial technique.

Imagine during a battle, if all the opposite party's bones were melted away, what would that person would turn into? This was exactly why the True Qi requirement for this terrifying skill was so high.

Penetrating Heart Devil Eye, when Chen Xiang heard it, he thought this technique would allow him to see through the thoughts of others. On the contrary, this technique allowed someone to shoot beams through their eyes, specifically, in order to attack other people's heart, directly penetrating through and destroying it! Of course, not only could it be used to attack the heart, it could also be used to attack other organs, it was a kind of devil technique for insidious martial artists, and this made Chen Xiang secretly happy. He very much yearned to be an insidious person.

During the battle, if someone shot two beams of vigorous True Qi through their eyes, penetrating the other party's heart, how insidious would that move be!? However, this skill had insanely high requirement for True Qi and divine sense.

"You better not let many people know you cultivate the Penetrating Heart Devil Eye, otherwises your enemies might become wary of it." Bai Youyou exhorted. She was someone who liked killing, even more so, someone who liked using various different methods to present death to the enemy.

Grasping Soul Devil Curse, Chen Xiang already knew a little bit about this technique, it was a kind of martial technique that could force someone to speak the truth. The divine sense requirement was very high for this skill. The Grasping Soul Devil Curse could not only control someone's soul to speak the truth, it could also be used to seize the soul and store it. Moreover, it could also be used to control their mind. It too was a very bizarre, powerful, and evil martial technique.

Finally, the Ice Spirit Devil Aura. Similar to previous four techniques, this too was a very insidious kind of martial technique, what it released was not the True Qi, but rather through using ice cold True Qi, it would quickly transform it into an ice cold divine sense that could be considered an ice spirit! During the battle, silently releasing an ice spirit made of Aura Qi to attack others, an intangible and colorless sneak attack. After getting hit, though there would be nothing apparently wrong with their body, they would just subconsciously feel extremely cold, as if they have been sealed in ice. This attack caused a great deal of damage to one's spirit.

Chen Xiang's foundations were very solid, whether it was True Qi or divine sense or his physical strength. This was why he could practise these four technique with twice the result from half the effort. He very easily mastered them, only after the continuous improvement of various aspects, could he use these devil techniques in the most vivid and thorough manner.

Ten days passed, in the small courtyard, there was now two new Azure Profound Trees. Fortunately, these trees were not very big otherwise they would not fit in this small courtyard.Chen Xiang hadn't left the Extreme Dan King Courtyard for the past ten days. He wasn't only cultivating the devil techniques, but also irrigating the Azure True Found Trees. He didn't pay attention to outside matters, for he was worried that he would be distracted by them and wander around.

However, today someone knocked on the door of the Extreme Dan Courtyard. According to Elder Dan, no one would dare to knock on the door of the Extreme Dan King Courtyard. Not even Gu Dongchen or Wu Kaiming would do so unless it was extremely important, which was why Chen Xiang immediately left to open the door.

This was Elder Dan's domain, not even Gu Dongchen or Wu Kaiming would dare to casually come here.

After opening the door, Chen Xiang saw Wu Kaiming!

"Little baldy, what's the matter? Come in first!" Chen Xiang said.

"Nothing big, but it's not something we can ignore, I'm just fine here!" Wu Kaiming replied. "These past ten days, there have been more and more conflicts between the devil path and the righteous martial artists. The grudges between the Extreme Martial Sect and the True Martial Sect along with the Beast Martial Sect have temporarily been put aside. However, the premise is that the bounty won't be removed!"

Chen Xiang nodded his head. He understood that the righteous sects needed to unite in order to deal with the devil path sects. If they were to let these devil path sects run amok, there was no need to wait for the catastrophe to arrive, as Chenwu Mainland would already be destroyed before that.

"But we, the Extreme Martial Sect, still haven't agreed to their terms. The Dean asked me to let the young martial uncle decide." Wu Kaiming said.

"Whatever, even if they offer a hundred million crystal stones, so long as little featherhead's statement remains effective, I'm not afraid of anyone!" Chen Xiang said with an indifferent look. "Make little featherhead tell those guys, that even if we're to temporarily work together, no-matter who it is, if they want to kill me, they should be prepared to pay ten times over!"

Wu Kaiming replied, "Rest assured, the Dean and I will make sure that not too strong guys will deal with you!"

"You better be ready, the devil path sects and righteous sects are ready to fight, and if so, there will be a need for more moderate methods to resolve this dispute. In order for less casualties on both sides, it is highly likely that some disciples will be sent to have a contest with the opposing devil path sects' disciples."

After Wu Kaiming left, Chen Xiang immediately started refining dans. He had to enter the 3rd level of the True Martial Realm as soon as possible! In any case, a fight was inevitable between the righteous and devil path sects, it was just a matter of when.

Chen Xiang had already obtained all the materials for refining the Building Foundation Dans. Since he had the thirty-seven Azure Profound Fruits, he would be able to refine it thirty-seven times. With his speed, three days would be enough to refine more than a hundred Building Foundation Dans!

In the Chenwu Mainland, the one who refined the most Building Foundation Dans was probably Chen Xiang. Only he possessed so many rare resources. Refining the Building Foundation Dans had long become a familiar process, and now it was as easy as a walk in the park.

Since the possession of the Heavenly Sun Fire Spirit, Chen Xiang's alchemy speed had improved by leaps and bounds. If combined with the Brilliant Flame Dragon Furnace, he would be able to quickly refine any Low-Grade Profound Level Dans.

After three days had passed, he had completely refined all thirty-seven Azure Profound Fruits, however, he had failed two times, and was only successful thirty-five times. That being said, during each refinement four dans were produced, in addition to the Building Foundation Dans he had prior to this, he now had a hundred and fifty dans.

After the period of successful refinement, Long Xueyi clamored Chen Xiang for Building Foundation Dans. After becoming aware of how formidable Long Xueyi was, Chen Xiang was very generous to her. That being said, he couldn't spoil her too much, so he only ended up giving her two.

After sending off this little greedy dragoness, Chen Xiang swallowed eight Building Foundation Dans in one breath, and began to cultivate. As the True Qi was being compressed in the five divine beast forms, the true element grains shone brightly.

When Chen Xiang went to deal with the issue with the mine, he had engulfed a 5th level True Martial Realm devil path martial artist. At that time, his True Qi had also improved a little. Now that he had so many Building Foundation Dans, entering the 3rd level of the True Martial Realm was no longer a challenge for him.

Another five days had passed, Chen Xiang had completely refined those eight Building Foundation Dans, and now in each beast form two extra true element grains had been illuminated, as such a total of nineteen grains had been illuminated in each True Qi beast form. He was just lacking a total of five true element grains, before he could enter the 3rd level of the True Martial Realm.

Now Chen Xiang found, that with the increase of the illuminated true element grains, it became more and more difficult to lit up the remaining grains. He required a lot more True Qi to compress, before it would be possible to illuminate another true element grain, making the process a lot harder.

At night, there was a sudden flash of a fiery light in a mountain forest with relatively strong Spirit Qi. Large wings made from flames appeared and disappeared not longer after.

Chen Xiang had flown toward the Herb King Mountain. When he got close enough, he had immediately retracted his [Vermillion Bird Fire Wings], and landed on the ground.

The matter about Herb King Mountain's Lu Family colluding with the devil path sect had still not been found. But once it was found, the various righteous forces would, without any delay, attack. At that time, the Herb King Mountain's resources would be robbed and as such nothing would be left behind. Chen Xiang was sure that Herb King Mountain's Lu Family would soon find their own matter of colluding with the devil path sect brought to light. However, by that time, they would have already escaped with most of the resources.

Chen Xiang, after thinking of this point, went to the Lu Family without any hesitation. The Lu Family had once wanted to kill him, how could he just forget about that?

Chen Xiang, from the information gathered by Zhu Rong, had come to understand what this Herb King Mountain was so famous for. It was precisely because it had a herb garden from a distant past, and this herb garden was very mysterious, as only god knew who created it, but when it had been discovered, the Lu Family had sacrificed a lot of geniuses to acquire this herb garden.

Chen Xiang had also acquired a herb garden, he speculated whether the master of both herb gardens was the same or not?

Herb King Mountain, it was no different from any other mountain, it was just that there had once been a lot of precious spirit herbs here and that was the only reason for it to be famous, furthermore, the Spirit Qi here was rather rich.

The Lu Family was established at the top of the Herb King Mountain, and that herb garden was hidden very mysteriously. Even after Zhu Rong's thorough investigation, he still hadn't been able to locate it.

Chen Xiang took out the Emperor Crystal, before he sensed everything around him, and after not finding anything containing Spirit Qi, he discharged the conjecture of having a vein present here.

"The last time when I went to find the herb garden, it's location was in a cave within a mountain valley. That's a huge mountainside!" Chen Xiang looked at the humongous Herb King Mountain. Although there was no mountain valley nearby, there was still a big mountainside, that mountainside could probably accommodate a herb garden.

"Little Dragon, didn't you sense anything?" Chen Xiang asked.

"I sense a strange energy, albeit very weak, I can still feel it, it should be a huge array, inside that mountainside!" Long Xueyi replied.

Chen Xiang, in his heart, was elated, he had also guessed the same. Just as he was about to move, Long Xueyi once again said, "There are a lot of people patrolling there, you should be careful!"

Chen Xiang wore a black robe, with a black hood, as he took advantage of the darkness, and hid among the grass, with the help of the [Tai Chi Subduing Dragon Exercise] he converged his breath, making it difficult for others to discover him.

Long Xueyi was also not able to probe any kind of entrance, but he could still sense that there was something inside the mountainside, so Chen Xiang started to search around the big mountain for an entrance.

Although it was a dark night, Chen Xiang cultivated the Azure Dragon Divine Exercise, and with it he could see clearly in the night, although everything was azure.

Soon, he saw several people lurking in the grass, although they were in the 10th level of the Mortal Martial Realm, their True Qi was very pure, and with very strong muscles, they were all very vigilant, all of them were exceptional masters.

Chen Xiang didn't kill these people, otherwise it would disturb the others that hid elsewhere. By then, the entire Lu Family would be alerted, this time his purpose for coming here was only to empty their pockets.

He was sure the Lu Family was only able to join the devil path sect because they had good resources to provide. Meanwhile, the Lu Family wanted to learn devil techniques in order to become more powerful.

Devil techniques could allow people to rapidly increase their strength in a short span of time, and allow one to master a stronger power. However, this was obtained through very ruthless means, some devil techniques needed one to drink human blood, eat human hearts, flesh, among other things. Only then, could they be cultivated. Generally, ordinary civilians would have to bear the brunt of this cultivation process which was why the devil path were not tolerated by the general public.

Once the Lu Family ran out… or 'lost' their prideful stock of herbs, then the Lu Family would be abandoned by the devil path sect. By then, the matter about their collusion with the devil path sect would come to light, and there would be no need for Chen Xiang to personally move his hand, the entire Lu Family would be annihilated.

As Chen Xiang was lurking in the grass around the giant mountain, he finally found a relatively large number of people at the foot of the mountain. There were even two 2nd level True Martial Realm martial artists there. There were not many True Martial Realm martial artists in these families, however, two of those people were stationed here. It was evident that they were guarding something important.

Chen Xiang affirmed that the herb garden's entrance was close.

"If it's the same herb garden you encountered before, it's possible that the Lu Family has no way to enter the garden through the true entrance! If it was the true entrance, they wouldn't need to station so many people here. It is highly likely that this entrance was a created one, bypassing the true entrance." Su Meiyao said.

Chen Xiang nodded his head and continued searching for the true entrance because he still had the key in his possession. Although he was unsure whether it would be useful, there was no harm in trying.

Chen Xiang looked at a cave with a stone door inside. In the vicinity as well as inside the cave, there were many guards. Although not very strong, every single one of them were very vigilant.

If Chen Xiang could not find the true entrance, he would have no choice but to enter through this heavily guarded one. When he would have to inevitably act, it would certainly alert the rest of the Lu Family.

After circling around half the mountain, Chen Xiang found a place with very few guards stationed. There were only one or two occasionally patrolling.

"It should be here!" Chen Xiang looked at a cave blocked by many boulders. He immediately went over and probed using his divine sense.

"There is a freaking gate inside!" Chen Xiang said in excitement, he then lightly smacked a palm on a boulder. Suddenly, that boulder turned into powder, which wa blown away by the wind.

This was the [Transforming Bone Devil Palm]. Just a light tap, and that hard boulder was turned into very fine powder.

Chen Xiang continued to smack a few palms one after another; he opened up a hole near the ground large enough for him to crawl into. After crawling inside, he used the nearby weeds to cover the hole, lest it was discovered by the patrolling guards.

Chen Xiang arrived at a pitch black cave, while walking deep into the cave, he took out a piece of shiny stone to illuminate his surroundings. Soon, he came across an iron gate.

This gave Chen Xiang a very familiar feeling because it was the very same door as the herb garden he found before. He took out the key and inserted into a small opening on the iron gate, and as he turned it, the iron gate gradually opened, but slowly only because Chen Xiang exhausted all his power to hold down the iron gate in order to prevent the iron gate causing any sound or a fierce vibration.

As the iron gate opened, Chen Xiang didn't see a herb garden like he was expecting, but rather a passage in front of him, with a familiar aura coming from its other end. He quickly passed through it and arrived at the end. When he did, he was completely startled and stood there staring as his heart quickly sped up. He was extremely excited because right in front of him was a massive herb garden filled with various rare spirit herbs!

The spirit herbs in here were mostly auxiliary herbs, it was evident that not many of them had grown for very long. Beside them were some relatively more expensive herbs, to be precise, herbs required for refining True Elemental Dan, White Jade Dan or similar high-grade spirit level dan. There were at least ten trees of Metal Spirit Tree and Thousand Vein Tree above, which the fruits had already matured. However, it seemed the Lu Family was reluctant to pick them.

"Goodfellas, isn't that the Five Elements Lotus? The main ingredient for refining Five Elements True Elemental Dan!" Chen Xiang exclaimed as he saw a lotus flower at the center of the herb garden with five petals, each with different color. This was the Five Elements Lotus, or also known as the Five Color Lotus.

"Holy shit! Isn't that the Nine Sun Flame Tree?" Chen Xiang saw a large tree with fiery red leaves, he could not help but exclaim in surprise.

"Also the Fire Spirit Grass!" Chen Xiang, after seeing the miniature fiery red grass under that big tree, once again could not help but exclaim. The grass looked like jumping flames, this was one of the main ingredients for refining the Flame Dan.

Chen Xiang didn't expect this herb garden to be so much better than the one he found before, it actually had so many high-grade spirit herbs!

"There is no one here, quickly grab everything!" Long Xueyi hastily said. At this moment, she was also being greedy. She could not wait to turn into a little rabbit and go around digging all of it up. But she also had a sense of proportion, she knew she had to stand guard for Chen Xiang. If he could steal all of these precious spirit herbs, there would definitely be a large share for her.

Chen Xiang entered the herb garden; first he chose to pick up those precious herbs up, he dug them up right from their roots, and then stored it all in his storage magic equipment. He wanted to move all of them over to the Extreme Dan King Courtyard.

He first dug up the Nine Sun Flame Tree, on top of which there were two Nine Sun Flames Fruits. This tree was rather big, about the height of three people, but not very thick, with very firm leaves and roots, and as such there was no need to be afraid of damage when transplanting it.

He quickly dug the tree out, and then went for the Five Color Lotus, Fire Spirit Grass, and only after digging all of them up, did he finally go for the Metal Spirit Tree and the Thousand Vein Tree. Fortunately, when he came here, he brought along many storage equipment, otherwise he simply could not take them all.

At this time, he had no choice but to ask Long Xueyi, this greedy little dragoness, to help him out in digging up these herbs. There was simply too many herbs that could be used for refining True Elemental Dan, White Jade Dan or various other sorts of dans. And countless commonly used highly matured spirit herbs, some of which were later planted by the Lu Family.

Long Xueyi's movements were very nimble. She was rather excited, her little mouth didn't stop moving, she dug up herbs and ate them as she wished. A few time she didn't even peeled the herbs before swallowing it whole, for example she dug out a large ginseng and swallowed it along with the mud.

"Greedy little dragoness, how about turning into a demon beast with a bigger mouth? That way you can eat more and even quicker!" Chen Xiang laughed and said. If it was not for this place being under the watch of the Lu Family, he would have already asked out those two beauties in the ring to help him pick these spirit herbs.

"That would be rather ugly!" Long Xueyi said while chewing a spirit grass, with its root sticking out.

"Just look at yourself, your current appearance is already very ugly!" Chen Xiang glanced at the what remained of the herb garden. He had no clue how long it would take to harvest the entire garden so he could only speed up and hope no one came.

After picking countless spirit herbs, Chen Xiang had lost all track of time. Long Xueyi, on one side was eating, while on the other she dug out spirit herbs. She herself wasn't clear how many herbs she ate. She also digested them quickly; she simply wasn't aware of what a bulging stomach from overeating was.

Chen Xiang saw the way she was eating, he got very worried about her belly being blown up. If not for Long Xueyi paying attention to all movements around them, he might not have been able harvest these spirit herbs so quickly without any worry.

"I've finally picked everything!" Long Xueyi handed over many storage pouches to Chen Xiang, all completely filled to the brim with spirit herbs.

Looking at the now barren herb garden, which had been originally lush with various plants and trees, now covered in various pits, Chen Xiang smiled and said, "Didn't you leave a little bit for yourself as snacks?"

Long Xueyi naughtily smiled and said, "Of course I have, but I'm not going to tell you how much I took!"

As Chen Xiang squeezed her face, she returned back to his arm, before speaking, "Chen Xiang, in the center of this herb garden, there is a stone buried under the ground. Although the stone is not any rare ore, but it is cut very neatly, it should be a monument."

So long as no one arrived, Chen Xiang was fearless of anything. He arrived at the center, and soon dug up that stone. It was indeed a monument carved out from stone, and had 'Dan King Li Tianjun' carved on it in large bold characters.

Elder Dan and that mysterious Dean of Danxiang Taoyuan were the strongest alchemists in the entire Chenwu Mainland. Since Elder Dan was still a step away from Dan King until now, Chen Xiang had never heard of someone being a real Dan King.

"It turned out to be him!" Su Meiyao exclaimed with surprise.

"Who?" Chen Xiang hastily asked.

"He is indeed a Dan King, however he is long dead, because he held a clue about a very sought after mysterious realm. That mysterious realm is very famous in the mortal world, known as a world-first treasure trove, also known as the world's first mysterious realm! Inside it, there are countless rare and precious spirit herbs, spirit beasts, exotic and wonderful treasures and so on! That's why he was hunted down by many fearsome martial artists across the mortal worlds!" Su Meiyao replied.

Bai Youyou continued, "This guy entered the this mysterious realm at very young age, and obtained many things from there. After many many years, he became a Dan King. However, he revealed this confidential secret to his son, who was rather a greedy person through and through. So, this confidential secret was revealed and he joined with some powerful martial artists to try and force his father to reveal the location of the world's first mysterious realm."

Su Meiyao sighed, "Li Tianjun was a very strong martial artist, however, being hunt down by various major martial artists made his situation very dangerous. Later, nothing had been heard about him for an extremely long time, and according to his son, he was already dead."

Chen Xiang looked at that monument, asked, "When did this happened?"

"About 10,000 years ago. It appears he was still alive, and even went to the Heavenly Realm! at that time, he was already praised as the world's number one martial artist, to be precise, the strongest under the Heavenly Realm!" Su Meiyao was somewhat excited at this point, "He left these herb gardens, maybe he also left the clue to the entrance of the world's first mysterious realm somewhere. Also, the Refiners Scroll you got maybe came from his hands as well."

That Refiners Scroll was in an inheritance bead, and was very esoteric. Even Liu Menger was not able to completely understand it. Chen Xiang looked at the monument, and poured his divine sense into it. However, it was blocked out by a mysterious power.

"There is something inside the monument!" Long Xueyi suddenly said.

Under the vigorous slap of Chen Xiang's palm, cracks appeared on the monument. He once again slapped down on it, and as the monument broke into pieces, a black iron box fell down.

Chen Xiang, Su Meiyao and Bai Youyou, were all extremely excited, because inside this black iron box, there could very well be a clue to the world's first mysterious realm.

Chen Xiang picked up that hand-sized small iron box and carefully looked all around it. He found a small hole on top of the box, just large enough for a key to be inserted. He quickly used the same key that opened the herb garden, and just like before, a beast skin was present inside. As he spread it out, he saw a very detailed map inside.

Chen Xiang carefully looked at the map, and his heartbeat became faster and faster. He was absolutely sure that this should be the map pointing at the entrance of the first mysterious realm. However, in order to enter the mysterious, he needed to wait a long time, because this mysterious realm required a long interval of time to open.

"When the darkness engulf the light, on the Sun Moon Island, the entrance to the mysterious realm will open!" Chen Xiang repeated these words over and over again, trying to understand it, "What does that mean?"

"Solar eclipse*!" Su Meiyao and Bai Youyou said in chorus.

[TLN: 天狗食日 - Solar Eclipse. The literal meaning is "the Heavenly Dog eats the Sun", and chinese people really used to believe at one time that this was what caused eclipses.]

Chen Xiang immediately understood, "When? This Sun Moon Island seems to be in our Mortal Martial World!"

"I don't know, but it's going to be soon. It's signs will appear a year before it, by then, rushing to the Sun Moon Island would not be too late." Bai Youyou replied.

Chen Xiang just finished looking through the map when he heard the stone door opening. It came from the entrance of the another passage of the herb garden, it was the passage the Lu Family had created on their own.

"Get out of here quickly!" Long Xueyi hastily shouted.

Chen Xiang immediately flashed into the iron gate, at that time the iron gate automatically closed by itself, but also released a explosive sound and tremor. He just took a few steps, before he heard a furious roar coming from the herb garden. The entire Herb King Mountain shook followed by a furious earth-shaking roar.

Chen Xiang quickly left the cave, it was actually noon. He and Long Xueyi had unwittingly stayed for so long in the Herb garden.

"Five 5th stage True Martial Realm from left and right are coming towards you from that side! Also one person in the Extreme State..." Long Xueyi had not yet completed her sentence before Chen Xiang saw few people from all four directions rushing over. Meanwhile from the sky, there was a suffocating mighty pressure bearing down upon him.

"Good bizarre and evil True Qi!" Chen Xiang speculated that this Extreme State martial artist should be the strongest among the Lu Family. Surrounded by these many people, it would be truly difficult for him to escape. He immediately cast the [Water Escape] from the Black Tortoise Divine Exercise.

Under his foot, a pool of water suddenly emerged. Before those people arrived, Chen Xiang was already completely submerged into that pool, though a water passage under the ground, he escaped into a nearby river. However, this completely drained him of his Black Tortoise True Qi.

Chen Xiang wore a black robe with a hood covering him completely, those people weren't able to see his appearance. However, from the display of the [Water Escape], it shouldn't be long before they figure out who he was, after all, Chen Xiang had once caste the same technique before.

After returning to the Extreme Dan King Courtyard, Chen Xiang first expanded his small courtyard, and renovated it into a huge herb garden. Afterwards, he planted those various spirit trees and some yet to fully mature spirit grass and spirit flowers from the Herb King Mountain; this whole process took an entire day.

Ten Metal Spirit Trees, ten Thousand Vein Trees, three Azure Profound Trees, a Nine Sun Flames Tree, some Fire Spirit Grass under the Nine Sun Flames Tree, and on the other side, there was the Five Color Lotus, these were only the relatively more valuable herbs.

Only the lotus seed of the Five Color Lotus was mainly used for alchemy. All the lotus seeds in the Five Color Lotus were usable, but Chen Xiang still didn't have all the ingredients for the Five Elements True Elemental Dan yet, which was why he plucked all the lotus seeds for planting. He wanted even more Five Color Lotuses.

Chen Xiang now diluted all the Golden Dragon Saliva he had congealed with water, and uniformly irrigated all the rare and precious herbs in the herb garden. Although it was diluted, the growth of these herbs was not in anyway slow.

After all of this was finished, Chen Xiang swallowed down five Building Foundation Dans, and began cultivating. Although he had many Building Foundation Dans, he could not eat them in succession for cultivation otherwise his foundation would become unstable. Whenever he broke through, he would go out to temper himself for a period of time, or immerse himself in alchemy. By familiarizing himself with utilization of the new state of True Qi, he could solidify the realm in order to avoid an unstable foundation.

Chen Xiang knew a lot of things must be going on outside, however, he didn't want to inquire about the situation. Even if someone came knocking on the door, he still didn't opened it. He was completely immersed either in cultivation or irrigating those spirit herbs.

At this time, he had already entered the 3rd level of the True Martial Realm. A total of a hundred and fifty true element grains were glistening with aura, this large amount of True Qi made him anxious to create some trouble, he could not wait to immediately go out and take a high-rank mission to try out his strength. However, he still managed to hold himself back.

Why? This was because he wanted to cultivate Shinto! The spirit in his consciousness was already in the infant state, and he needed to rapidly grow his infant soul, before Long Xueyi would teach him the cultivation for Shinto, allowing his strength to exponentially increase.

There was only one method to make the infant soul quickly grow up and that was the Elemental Spirit Dan! Chen Xiang already had enough Raising Soul Grass and Divine Spirit Grass on hand, he now had a total of one hundred sets of materials for the Elemental Spirit Dan, all of which he had originally acquired in the Black Tortoise Mysterious Realm.

The Elemental Spirit Dan was a Low-Grade Profound Level Dan, it's rarity and grandeur could not be compared with the Building Foundation Dans. Besides, its herbs were even more hard to find than the Building Foundation Dan not to mention it's difficulty of refining was leagues above the other as well.

The difficulty of refining the Building Foundation Dan was around the same as High-Grade Spirit Level Dans, it was mainly because the herbs required were rare and precious compared with its counterparts that it was included in the Low-Grade Profound Level Dans. However, not only were the ingredients for the Elemental Spirit Dans even rarer, its refining difficulty was also tremendously high.

A lot of Raising Soul Grass and Divine Spirit Flower had been nurtured by Chen Xiang, although they were all seedlings, he had the Golden Dragon Saliva. Making these flowers and grass mature faster was not at all difficult.

Inside the private room, Chen Xiang processed those herbs according to Su Meiyao's instructions. The only part needed from the Raising Soul Grass was a small part close to the root. Meanwhile, only a particular petal and root was needed from the Divine Spirit Flower. All of the above needed to be processed very carefully. If there was even a little more cut off than required, it would result in chaotic Spirit Qi which would lead the refinement to fail.

The Divine Spirit Flower and Raising Soul Grass were the main ingredients. Besides them, there were many other auxiliary herbs, way over thirty. All of these herbs were relatively common herbs, such as Ginseng, Spirit Grass, Monster Cores and so on. However, the age requirements for these herbs were rather high, the lowest needed to be three thousand years old. As such, these auxiliary herbs were also rather hard to find. However, it was nothing difficult for Chen Xiang. He had long obtained the required auxiliary herbs from both the recent herb garden invasion and the Black Tortoise Mysterious Realm.

After processing and arranging the auxiliary ingredients and the main ingredients uniformly, Chen Xiang stored each set into a separate jade box. He finished as much as tens sets before he took out the Brilliant Flame Dragon Furnace and began refining.

Chen Xiang already learned the whole process on how to refine the Elemental Spirit Dan from Su Meiyao. However, the fundamental nature of the Elemental Spirit Dan compared to the other dans he had refined before were not the same, which was why he needed to get practical experiences and address the minute details.

As these herbs were placed inside the Brilliant Flame Dragon Furnace, Chen Xiang released the flames, instantly incinerating these herbs. At the start, the flames were too intense, which lead to a sudden combustion of these herbs, releasing a burst of tyrannical Spirit Qis. These collided with each other inside the furnace, causing the Brilliant Flame Dragon Furnace to fiercely shake.

Chen Xiang immediately suppressed these tyrannical Spirit Qis with his divine sense and gradually released them out. Once those Spirit Qis left the Brilliant Flame Dragon Furnace, they dispersed and disappeared in between heaven and earth.

"Sigh, that's one set wasted!" Chen Xiang sighed. To instantly experience failure at the beginning was an unexpected blow, it was something he had not experienced for a long time.

"Since you have the Heavenly Sun Fire Spirit, your flames are very intense. Besides, this process compared to the one before are very different, these herbs are very easily incinerated. In fact, I already warned you about this." Su Meiyao reprimanded him without any scruple.

Chen Xiang nodded his head, and once again began refining.

The second time, he slowly baked those herbs bit by bit, so that the Spirit Qis were slowly released. At the same time, he used his divine sense to fuse those various kinds of herbal Spirit Qis as they were released.

"It's started!" Chen Xiang frowned. At this moment, his divine sense began to drain away, this was because the Raising Soul Grass and the Divine Spirit Flower both produced divine sense, as these divine sense were ownerless, they instinctively absorbed the strength of other divine senses. At the moment, they were absorbing Chen Xiang's divine sense.

If the herbs absorbed too much divine sense, it would lead to alchemy failure, too little would also have the same end result. For this entire process, a very accurate control was absolutely necessary.

Chen Xiang once again failed. He was worried about having too much of his divine sense getting absorbed, so he fused those herbal Spirit Qis and herbal powders together too quickly to try and solidify the dan in advance. As a result, the Spirit Qi absorbed too little of his divine sense, resulting in not enough strength. As such, during the solidification of the dan, it was very loose before slowly scattering.

Alchemy was precisely done in such a way, only after failing again and again would the alchemist be successful in grasping the most crucial point.

Even while refining the Building Foundation Dan, Chen Xiang had failed many times. Not to mention the Elemental Spirit Dan which was several times harder to refine than the Building Foundation Dan!

In the blink of an eye, ten days passed. Chen Xiang had already failed seventy times!

"Still not enough, it's just seventy times, that's all! Keep going!" Su Meiyao nodded her head with satisfaction. If Chen Xiang was successful in forty to fifty tries, that would be too abnormal. Although Su Meiyao knew Chen Xiang had an extremely heaven defying talent regarding alchemy, it should also have a limit. Now that she finally saw Chen Xiang failed so many times, she didn't know why but her mood was very good.

Seeing Su Meiyao being so happy, Chen Xiang happily smiled and said, "Sister Meiyao, let's bet that I would fail no more than hundred times before successfully refining this Elemental Spirit Dan."

Su Meiyao and Bai Youyou were both inside the ring. Although there was no one else present, it was still the site of Extreme Martial Sect. With many Nirvana Realm martial artists somewhere around here, they were worried they would be found, hence they didn't dare to come out.

After thinking for a while, Su Meiyao promised, "Ok! If you lose, you have to loudly shout 'I'm an idiot' three times in the Extreme Martial Sect's square. if I lose..."

Chen Xiang laughed and said, "If you lose, you've to kiss me on the lips! How about it?"

Su Meiyao sank into deep thought. She pondered for a while, she knew the specific amount of divine sense that needed to be absorbed, was a giant hurdle. Even after failing seventy times, Chen Xiang was still not able to control the right amount. Not to mention, during the solidification of the dan in latter stages, the suppression of multitudes of ownerless spiritual power transformed from the divine sense would be extremely hard to fuse with the herbal powder. This checkpoint still needed many failures before success would occur, at least it was like that for her.

If Su Meiyao lost, she had to kiss Chen Xiang on his lips. This stake was a bit larger compared to Chen Xiang's. After all, if she won, Chen Xiang only had to shout 'I'm an idiot' three times.

Su Meiyao was purely bored and that's why she was seeking something to stimulate her, seeking something for fun.

"Hmm, how about this. If you lose, you have go and kiss Zhu Rong's cheeks, moreover, in front of Yun Xiaodao and squinted dragon!" Su Meiyao said with a tender laugh. Thinking of this scene, she couldn't stop giggling.

Just thinking of this made Chen Xiang feel nausea. Now he didn't have any confidence controlling the failure to under one hundred tries. If he lost, that would be pretty miserable.

However, if Chen Xiang won, he would be able to kiss Su Meiyao on lips. This temptation was extremely huge, this was precisely what gambling was. A loss was extremely miserable, while a win would bring extreme joy!

Chen Xiang also deeply considered for a while, before he nodded his head, "Ok, but you have kiss me a bit longer, it can't be a superficial peck on the lips."

"No problem!" Su Meiyao tenderly laughed and said, "Are you sure you can win?"

Chen Xiang laughed and said, "No, but thinking of kissing you is too large a temptation to pass. Such beauty, ever if I lose miserably I still have to try! Sister Meiyao, don't worry, I'm very experienced in kissing. At that time I'll teach you what to do. Although you've lived for very long, I'm sure you are definitely unexperienced!"

Su Meiyao didn't abhore Chen Xiang, on the contrary, she rather liked him. Chen Xiang was handsome enough, had an excellent talent, and if he became a powerful martial artist in the future, he was indeed a pretty good partner. Besides, her bare jade body was already seen by Chen Xiang, kissing him didn't amount to anything much in retrospect. However, she didn't know why, but she was a bit anticipating what would happen if she lost. After living for so long, she indeed had never kissed a man.

"Sister Youyou, how about you also join in the fun?" Thinking of kissing Bai Youyou, Chen Xiang suddenly became even more excited. As opposed to Su Meiyao, Bai Youyou, this iceberg beauty, stirred up an even more intense desire to conquer her.
