“From this point on, the real challenge begins. Without a Spiritual Root, my cultivation will only become more and more difficult,” Tian Zhu muttered softly.In truth, Tian Zhu was not overly worried about it because he had two excellent sources of cultivation—Ling Yin and Xie Dao Yun. If the two girls could break through to the Heaven Spiritual Realm, he could use certain methods to suppress the obstacles caused by his body lacking a Spiritual Root.The real problem was whether the two of them could actually reach that realm. That was precisely why Tian Zhu had to help them.Tian Zhu walked out of the cave. After two weeks, he finally saw sunlight again. His eyes felt dazzled by the bright rays, having grown accustomed to the darkness of the cave.He adjusted to the sunlight for a moment before forming flaming wings on his back and shooting into the sky to search for herbs.Another ten days passed. Tian Zhu had gathered what he considered to be a sufficient amount of herbs. He had al

Tian Zhu demonstrated the pill to the white lion, presenting the newly refined Mysterious-grade pill. With one set of ingredients, he was able to produce two pills.“What’s the difference? Although the fragrance is pleasant, its energy is even weaker than Mysterious-grade herbs.” The white lion released a trace of its aura. “Human, are you trying to deceive me?”“How would I dare? If you don’t believe me, try it yourself and you will surely feel its benefits.”“And why should I trust you? You could have added poison to that pill.”The white lion’s reaction was perfectly reasonable. No one would trust a stranger so easily.“Ah, you’re right. But this pill is not poisonous at all. Look.” Tian Zhu immediately swallowed one of the pills. He could feel his body becoming noticeably refreshed. “Well? Do you believe me now? You can’t sense the energy because it is concentrated within. You’ll feel it once you consume it.”Tian Zhu handed over the remaining pill.The white lion made the pill fl

“Haha, I truly gained a great harvest this time. It wasn’t a waste at all to take this mission.” Tian Zhu increased his flying speed.Along the way, Tian Zhu encountered no obstacles and managed to leave the mountain range in just one day. On his journey back, he landed in front of a cave entrance and entered it.“Before returning, I should refine the Bone Tempering Pills and Flesh Tempering Pills first.” Tian Zhu began refining the pills.He intended to make 15 Bone Tempering Pills and 15 Flesh Tempering Pills. He would give Ling Yin 10 of each, while Xie Dao Yun would receive 5 of each.That was because Ling Yin’s body was very weak. She required more pills to strengthen her physique so she would be better prepared to break through to the Earth Spiritual Realm.In addition, Tian Zhu had also obtained the herbal ingredients for the Earth Rebirth Pill in the Guxu Mountains, so he planned to give both girls Earth Rebirth Pills as preparation for their future breakthrough to the Earth S

“Uncle Jiu, where is Elder Zhi?”“He is currently in his study. What is it?” Jiu Do raised his eyebrows; it was unusual for Yun Zhi to ask such a question.“I believe Uncle Jiu has already heard that the mission to search for the Sacred Dew Flower has been withdrawn from all Mission Halls because it has been completed. We came to see Elder Zhi to hand over the herb.” Yun Zhi glanced at Tian Zhu.Tian Zhu then took out a box-shaped container.“Manager Jiu, inside this box is the Sacred Dew Flower.” Tian Zhu handed the box over.Jiu Do opened it, and instantly a misty dew spread out, just as it had earlier in the Mission Hall. He quickly closed the box again.“This truly is the Sacred Dew Flower. Thank you, Miss Yun. I will immediately deliver this to Elder Zhi.”“Wait a moment, Uncle Jiu!” Yun Zhi stopped him.“Is there something you need, Miss Yun?”“Uncle Jiu, the one who obtained the herb is this young master, Tian Zhu, an Outer Disciple. He came to meet Elder Zhi.”Jiu Do looked at

“I’m sorry if my father was a little rude.” Yun Zhi apologized to Tian Zhu after Elder Zhi left.“It’s no problem. Isn’t it only natural for a father to worry about his daughter?” Tian Zhu nodded lightly. “It seems no one knows that you’re Elder Zhi’s daughter, right?”“Yes, that’s how it is.” Yun Zhi let out a soft sigh. “My father keeps it a secret not because he’s ashamed of having a disabled child like me, but to protect me.”“That’s how fathers are. Even if they sometimes seem indifferent, they will always try to protect their family.” For some reason, Tian Zhu suddenly missed his own parents.Remembering his father’s struggles in the past, Tian Zhu felt that the responsibility of being a father was far from easy.The room fell silent for a moment. Yun Zhi seemed to be thinking before finally deciding to speak.“I was born to a mother who was an ordinary person. My father, who was a cultivator, was once injured in a forest and was accidentally found by my mother. She brought him
