The trial in the Demon Spirit Realm was not just a focus for the people of Xia Nation, but for nearly the entire world.
Xiong Miao had already made a fortune just from selling the live broadcast copyrights.
Xue Qianwei’s role was simply to acquire the failing Xiong Miao Live company and provide Chu Yang with a platform for his broadcasts.
Who would have thought that after only a month, things would have developed to this point?
Currently, they were still only accommodating ten thousand foreigners daily. Chu Yang had intended to increase this number, but their unsuitability for immortal cultivation had been exposed, making him feel it was not worth the effort to cultivate them.
Chu Yang himself had also experienced a surge in his cultivation. As more people worldwide recognized the legitimacy of immortal cultivation, his power poured into his body as if uninhibited.
“System, show me the panel.”
At Chu Yang’s call, a panel appeared in his mind.
“Host: Chu Yang.”
“Age: 18.”
“Cultivation: Nascent Soul Mid-stage (1542145121/2000000000)”
“Basic Abilities: Precision Deployment, Eye of Insight.”
“Immortal Cultivation Era Commencement Progress: 13.14%”
“Inventory Items: 《Blood Burning》, Time Secret Realm [Li Huo Palace Ruins]*1, Medicine Garden Secret Realm [Ten Thousand Fragrance Valley]*1, Trial Secret Realm [Land of Grudges and Malevolence]*1, Spirit Stone Veins*6…”
The Nascent Soul realm was already considered a formidable existence in the cultivation world.
At this stage, destroying a world was a simple matter.
Hundreds of tons of nuclear bombs could not break his defenses, illustrating the vast difference in power between humans and the Evil Race.
However, because Chu Yang was a cheat, as time passed, the universal adoption of immortal cultivation by humanity was only a matter of time, and he was certain to reach the Immortal Emperor realm.
As for everyone else, they could only rely on their fortune. Chu Yang would undoubtedly spare no effort in cultivating them.
He still possessed many spirit stone veins. If released for people to mine, there would naturally be a large quantity of spirit stones circulating in the market.
Originally, Chu Yang had planned to release the spirit stone veins for free development, but after learning the Spirit Gathering Array, he had a new idea.
“If I accumulate over a dozen spirit stone veins and use the entire Xia Nation as the array disk to draw a Spirit Gathering Array to increase the spiritual energy concentration in heaven and earth, wouldn’t that be better than spirit stones being controlled by a few financial groups?”
After outlining his future path, Chu Yang took a step forward and entered a black vortex.
A vast medicine garden appeared before his eyes.
The dense spiritual energy collided with Chu Yang, and the air was filled with a faint medicinal aroma.
This was the Medicine Garden Secret Realm [Ten Thousand Fragrance Valley], the private dimension of the Valley Master of the Myriad Medicine Valley.
Those who could open up a personal dimension were at least at the Nascent Soul stage. Chu Yang guessed that this Valley Master had already reached the Mahayana stage.
It was a pity that such a powerful cultivator had been ambushed and killed, and his life’s work, [Ten Thousand Fragrance Valley], had fallen into the hands of this system.
This place was truly pure and natural, pollution-free, and its spiritual energy concentration was equivalent to half the effect of a Spirit Gathering Array.
The arrangement of [Ten Thousand Fragrance Valley] was based on spatial layering, one level after another.
The rules set by the Valley Master stipulated that one had to reach a certain realm to enter the next level, such as reaching the Golden Core stage to enter the second level, the Nascent Soul stage to enter the third level, and so on.
The herbs on the first level were all relatively low-grade, and their rarity was not very high.
Star Spirit Grass, Ice Heart Grass, Ice Vein Fruit, Fire Spirit Fruit… were everywhere.
Although these were rare treasures, they were only effective for cultivators below the Golden Core stage.
Chu Yang recalled the pill refining methods recorded in the 《Blazing Heart Pill Record》 and took some of them before leaving.
“Boss Xue! It’s time for pill refining!”
Xue Qianwei rushed out aggressively, her eyes shining.
Finally, there was something to do! While other geniuses were undergoing life-and-death trials in beast secret realms, she had been slacking off recently!
How could this be allowed? Pill refining was a must!
“Where are the herbs? The ingredients? The cauldron?”
Chu Yang made a gesture, and a fiery red cauldron appeared before Xue Qianwei.
As for where this cauldron came from, the answer was that it was obtained from the daily lottery.
Then, Chu Yang released a cart full of herbs, and a rich medicinal fragrance filled the entire courtyard.
Xue Qianwei’s eyes lit up at the sight. She was accustomed to Chu Yang’s inexplicable resources.
Before, Chu Yang had claimed to be a disciple of a hidden sect. Now… anyone who believed that was a fool. What sect could possess a pavilion that produced infinite cultivation techniques?
They were now in an independent small courtyard, surrounded by open space.
The reason for not letting Boss Xue refine pills in [Ten Thousand Fragrance Valley] was the fear of frequent cauldron explosions, which could easily cause severe damage to the plants and flowers.
“Do you recognize all these herbs?”
Xue Qianwei nodded excitedly, “Of course, I do!”
“Do you remember all the pill recipes?”
“Who do you think I am? They’ve already entered my mind! How could I possibly forget?”
Chu Yang pointed at the herbs and said, “I’ve only picked the ingredients for three types of pills: Qi Gathering Pill, Tranquil Heart Pill, and Scarlet Blood Pill. I’ll watch you from the side, and you can begin. Don’t worry, the material of this cauldron is made from Primordial Chaos Iron, so you can smash it around! It absolutely won’t break!”
Xue Qianwei’s eyebrows shot up, and she said unhappily, “Who do you think you are looking down on? Who would cause a cauldron explosion?”
Chu Yang ignored her mood and continued, “Since you want to refine pills, then do it seriously. You are the first alchemist in this world. Once you make a name for yourself, I will recruit some cultivators who practice fire-element cultivation techniques and let you teach them pill refining.”
“At that time, you will be a master of ten thousand people, the ancestor of all alchemists. No matter how powerful your apprentices become later, even if they become Pill Kings, they will still have to call you master! Moreover, the battle with the Evil Race in three years will also require the assistance of pills, and you will achieve unparalleled merit!”
Boss Xue was also simple-minded. After hearing Chu Yang’s encouraging words, she suddenly felt that heaven was about to bestow a great responsibility upon her, and a sense of mission surged within her.
“Wait a minute, are you… pua-ing me?”
“I’m just telling you about my plan for cultivating alchemists. Also, that word is ‘pua’, your brain is getting worse and worse lately! Hurry up and start!”
Xue Qianwei nervously touched the cauldron in front of her, then carefully said, “Shall I start the fire?”
“The most important thing in pill refining is controlling the heat. The temperature of every second, the timing of adding each medicinal ingredient, and the time of opening the cauldron all play a crucial role in the final quality of the pill. Let’s start with the simplest Qi Gathering Pill.”
A wisp of fire light flowed from Xue Qianwei’s fingertips into the cauldron.
