At that time, during the chaos, Wan Wuying and Chu Xuan had seized the battle token and successfully made their way to the extraterritorial battlefield. But Chu Xuan had fallen in the western part of the battlefield, where he was swarmed by a horde of Nether Crocodiles and had vanished without a trace. Wan Wuying had always believed that Chu Xuan had died.But now...After so many years, Chu Xuan had returned as a fully-fledged Nascent Soul cultivator. He had even slain Zhao Kai, the substitute palace master of the Feather Transformation Heaven Palace, and made a tremendous contribution to the victory in this battle. Yet here was Wan Wuying, still a mere Golden Core cultivator, struggling to advance toward Nascent Soul. How many cruel jokes had fate played? The rise and fall of life truly felt like an endless rollercoaster."Hahaha! Shi Juntian, you really did an outstanding job! I thought the cultivators from Northern Cold wouldn't be able to stop the Feather Transformation Heaven Pa

He carefully examined the stones. Thirty Great Spirit Stones in total—each one the size of a fist. They were crystal-clear, sparkling with a radiant glow. They were far more perfect than Medium Spirit Stones. Normally, one Great Spirit Stone could be exchanged for a hundred Medium Spirit Stones, but few people actually did that. Instead, many would trade one hundred and twenty, one hundred thirty, or even one hundred forty Medium Spirit Stones for just one Great Spirit Stone. The reason for this was simple: the spiritual qi contained in a Great Spirit Stone was extremely pure.Many cultivators faced the problem of depleted spiritual qi during battles. To restore it, they either had to take medicinal pills or use spirit stones. However, pills were expensive and typically saved for emergencies. The majority of cultivators used spirit stones to replenish their spiritual qi, and the purer the spiritual qi inside the stone, the better. In this regard, Great Spirit Stones were certainly far

A smile appeared on Chu Xuan's face. As the sect leader of the Heavenly Infinite Sect, it would be a simple matter to request the method from Wei Ji. Surely he would comply...."Take care, Sect Leader. Feel free to come by again whenever you need anything!" Wei Ji smiled broadly as he sent Chu Xuan off. But once the sect leader had left, his expression fell, and he sank down onto the steps of his cave residence."That was my most prized wooden puppet..." Wei Ji muttered under his breath. "Chu Xuan, you..." He fumed with resentment, but when he thought about the terrifying way Chu Xuan had killed Zhao Kai, all of his anger instantly evaporated. "He's right to take the puppet technique... it's for the good of the sect," Wei Ji muttered, trying to convince himself. "Yes, yes. As a Nascent Soul elder of the Heavenly Infinite Sect, I must always consider the sect's interests first." He sighed, trying to push his frustration aside....Later that night, atop Infinite Island. Chu Xuan and W

The two walked out of the Sect Leader's hall side by side. One turned left, the other right, heading to their respective caves.Shang Xingchen gently patted his sleeve, making sure to secure the poison powders even more tightly. "I used four kinds of poison powder to test him, and he actually detected it quickly and even described their effects. It seems that Sect Leader Chu's poison techniques are also quite formidable. This man, rising from a Qi Refining cultivator to his current position, truly isn't someone with just empty fame. It looks like I'll have to improve my poisons further. Since regaining my memories, this is the first person who was able to dissolve my poisons so easily. I've truly made the right choice returning to Mystic Azure."Meanwhile, Chu Xuan furrowed his brows. The hidden bee egg had only been a test to gauge Shang Xingchen's abilities. If Shang Xingchen had failed to detect the insect egg, it would have shown that his strength was average, and there would be n

The most surprising change was that the new brood of eggs laid by the Queen now exhibited a trait inherited from the Nether Bee—the ability to become invisible. However, this invisibility was temporary and consumed the short lifespan of the bees, unlike the ancient Nether Bees, which could remain invisible indefinitely without any cost. Even so, this was a significant improvement.Chu Xuan gave a mental command, and the black chains shot out. The Evil Soul Chain, which had been refined with the Blood River Crystals, had gained more sinister energy. The stench of blood was now even more potent. Chu Xuan casually summoned a zombie and pulled it over. With a swift flick of the rope, the zombie's blood was immediately absorbed by the Evil Soul Chain. In the blink of an eye, the zombie turned into a desiccated corpse. A gust of wind blew, and it quickly turned to dust, scattering into the horizon."Roar!"Huikong appeared, letting out a joyous howl. Chu Xuan noticed that the entity's soul
