Chapter 228: The Condensation Pill of Respect

Chapter 228: The Condensation Pill of Respect

Xiong Zhan suddenly unleashed incredible energy, spreading like a storm, imposing as a mountain. Feeling the energy, Qing Lin's eyes snapped open.

"What powerful energy, it must be at least a peak level seven magical beast," Qing Lin thought, touching the spiritual mark on her hand. "I'd better not disturb young master Xiao Ze, I'll try to handle this myself."

With a green flash in her eyes, several figures appeared around her. "I want to see what's happening here," she said, riding one of the snake beasts and heading towards the source of the energy.

Xiong Zhan's energy also carried a touch of dragon majesty, intimidating the snake beasts that, although fearful, continued attacking without hesitation.

"If they seek death, don't blame me for being ruthless," Xiong Zhan said fiercely, striking one of the snake beasts and creating a bloody hole in its body. The massive beast fell to the ground, collapsing buildings and staining the area with blood. Yet, the other beasts did not stop, attacking with their powerful tails towards Xiong Zhan.

Clang!

The clash, though between flesh, resonated like metal.

Zi Yan frowned, looking into the distance. "Big Bear, wait, don't kill them yet," she suddenly ordered, surprising Xiong Zhan, who quickly retreated to her side.

"Miss, why did you change your mind?" asked Xiong Zhan.

"I sense a familiar energy," said Zi Yan, recalling. "In fact, there are several energies approaching, and some seem to be beasts from the alchemy world. I recognize some of them."

Xiong Zhan nodded. If they were the young miss's acquaintances, he couldn't kill them. So, moderating his strength, he threw the snake beasts away.

Soon after, Qing Lin, confused by the noises, stopped. According to her perception, the owner of the energy should have no problem defeating the beasts, so why were they still fighting?

Suddenly, Qing Lin saw a small figure dressed in purple, adorable and carved from jade. "Zi Yan?" she exclaimed.

Zi Yan, seeing her, smiled happily. "Oh, it's this girl! I thought this method of controlling beasts seemed familiar," she said, quickly approaching.

Xiong Zhan, after throwing a snake beast, saw Zi Yan flying towards them, worried. "Miss, please don't get into trouble!"

Qing Lin, seeing Zi Yan, understood the situation: there had been a misunderstanding. The people the snake beasts were fighting were Zi Yan's companions. She quickly ordered the beasts to stop attacking.

"Zi Yan, what are you doing here alone? Where is Xiao Ze?" asked Zi Yan, sniffing softly.

"We separated recently. Xiao Ze is at the Dan Tower, training in the medicinal pond," explained Qing Lin.

"Really? Is he already an elder of the Dan Tower?" Zi Yan was surprised. "So many things have happened, tell me everything."

Xiong Zhan, returning with a frustrated face, saw they were indeed acquaintances. "It seems this girl is extraordinary to be friends with the young miss, able to control so many magical snake beasts..."

Looking at Qing Lin, Xiong Zhan recalled an ancient power. "The Green Snake Three-Flower Eyes... it's an incredibly powerful ability against all snake beasts!"

Xiong Zhan listened to the conversation, intrigued by the relationship between Xiao Ze and Zi Yan. "Xiao Ze must be an interesting person," he thought.

"Let me introduce you, this is Xiong Zhan, I call him Big Bear, he is the leader of the Thousand Medicine Mountain Range in the alchemy world," said Zi Yan. "Big Bear, this is Qing Lin, my good friend. It was all a misunderstanding."

"Nice to meet you, Xiong Zhan," said Qing Lin.

"Just call me Xiong Zhan," he replied, laughing.

Near the great hall where the medicinal pond was located, Zi Yan decided to wait for Xiao Ze, hoping he would help her prepare some delicious pills with the ingredients she had collected.

Next to the pond, Xiao Ze, with his eyes closed, noticed a reward from the system. "A hundred-fold bonus?" he said, surprised. Xiao Ze, knowing that Xiao Yan had recently faced difficulties, understood the value of the reward. "Excellent, Xiao Yan, you've done great!"

Xiao Ze accepted the reward and, upon opening his eyes, smiled with joy. "A high-quality formula... The Energy Condensation Pill, which increases the probability of advancing to the Dou Zun level."

"If others knew I possessed this formula, they would kneel begging for a pill," Xiao Ze thought. "Although I don't really need it, as I can advance by my own merits, having it is a great advantage."

"Now, in the Alchemy World, I can gather the necessary ingredients. First, I'll finish absorbing the pond's energy," he said, looking at the pond whose glow had diminished. "With a little more effort, I'll be able to surpass the hundred-meter diameter of the Source Tree!"

Xiao Ze closed his eyes again, delving into the experience of refining dou qi.
