22. Hurry Up And Help

At this moment, Chen Xuan had completed his breakthrough in the sky, officially becoming a Five Yuan Nirvana Realm cultivator!

If the Nine Heavens Supreme Purity Palace knew this, Shen Qing would regret it deeply. She had let such a talented disciple slip away!

Meanwhile, the major sects of the Eastern Xuan Region had sent groups to search for Chen Xuan, all hoping to be the first to find him.

However, without precise information, they had no idea where he had gone.

Many assumed he had headed to higher-ranking or super dynasties, so they focused their search there, never considering that he might be in the low-ranking Great Yan Empire.

Only Ma Fengbin of the Nine Heavens Supreme Purity Palace, guided by Lin Qingzhu's direction, quietly arrived at the Great Yan Empire.

However, instead of rushing to find Chen Xuan, he first sought out information about the Devouring Ancestral Symbol, hoping the rumors were true.

On the other hand, after completing his breakthrough, Chen Xuan looked down and saw Lin Dong, his companion beast Xiao Yan, and Little Marten were surrounded by dozens of ferocious beasts. The Mist Crocodile Leopard King watched from afar, and at its command, the beasts attacked Lin Dong and his allies, leaving them battered and bloodied. They only barely managed to survive.

After collecting several hundred emotional points from their suffering, Chen Xuan lost interest and left.

In the following days, aside from occasionally checking on Lin Dong in the Misty Forest, he focused on personally guiding Jiang Xue's cultivation.

Under his guidance, Jiang Xue's power grew rapidly, and she soon reached the pinnacle of the Form Creation Realm, far surpassing her father.

What surprised Chen Xuan even more was Lin Dong's progress.

Under the high pressure of the Mist Crocodile Leopard King, he also broke through to the Form Creation Realm, clearly benefiting greatly from the mysterious stone talisman.

However, despite this progress, Little Marten still couldn't break the dozens of illusionary formations, shedding fur in frustration.

As Lin Dong grew stronger, the Mist Crocodile Leopard King could no longer restrain him.

To prevent Lin Dong from escaping and continuing his growth, Chen Xuan decided to replace the Mist Crocodile Leopard King with a stronger beast.

He tasked members of the Eagle Martial Doho with finding suitable candidates.

Eventually, Chen Xuan selected two beasts: the Heaven-shaking Demon Ape from the Heaven-shaking Mountain and the Ancient Dragon Ape from the Ancient Wasteland, both of which were at the initial level of the Manifestation Realm.

These beasts would easily keep a newly ascended Form Creation Realm cultivator like Lin Dong in check.

Chen Xuan traveled to the Ancient Wasteland, where the atmosphere was thick with violence and danger.

Upon reaching the valley, he encountered a massive figure—the Ancient Dragon Ape, its black body gleaming like iron under the sun, particularly the sharp black horn on its forehead, a symbol of its dragon lineage.

The ape was guarding a blood-red pool that held two blood fruits—the Thousand Beast Fruits—items capable of enhancing both beast and human cultivation to the Nirvana Realm.

As Chen Xuan observed, he noticed a group hiding nearby—the disciples of the Ancient Sword Sect.

Amused, he decided to watch as they attempted to steal the fruit from the powerful ape.

After nightfall, the sect members executed their plan, drawing the ape away while another group seized the fruit.

However, as soon as the fruit was taken, the ape returned, furious at the theft.

Its enraged roar shook the entire ravine, and it charged north, following the scent of the fruit.

Chen Xuan followed, amused by the Ancient Sword Sect's predicament.

As the commotion grew, onlookers began to speculate about the sect's reckless actions.

Soon, everyone realized that the Ancient Sword Sect had angered the ape by stealing its treasure.

Meanwhile, the Ancient Sword Sect's elders returned to their headquarters, where the sect leader, Liu Gu, distributed pure essence pills to the disciples, ordering them to prepare the sect's defensive formation.

He told the elders, "Once I break through to the Manifestation Realm by refining this Thousand Beast Fruit, I'll deal with that beast!"

Liu Gu rushed to the main hall with the fruit, but just as he was about to begin his breakthrough, a young figure appeared before him.

Startled, Liu Gu assumed it was one of his disciples and scolded, "Why are you standing here? Hurry up and help at the gate!"
