Chapter 1: When the father suffers humiliation, the son must avenge him

  "Hehe, Xiao Chen has woken up. This time, he must have gone through a lot of hardships to help his sister refine that demon bone." In her heart, Yu Jie let out a gentle laugh, but amidst the teasing tone, there was also a hint of genuine concern.

  Xiao Chen heard this and was slightly stunned, feeling her concern, a few smiles appeared on his face, saying: "Fellow Taoist, sister sincerely treats me, Xiao Chen will naturally return with all his might."

  "You also call me a friend, yet you're so distant. Everyone else calls you Xiao Chen's younger brother, from now on you'll address me as older sister, otherwise I won't forgive you." Yu Ji suddenly became affectionate, making Xiao Chen feel extremely puzzled and unable to understand, he tried to push her away but had no choice but to bitterly smile and agree.

  "Alright, I've agreed, but I don't know if sister will be satisfied?" Xiao Chen said helplessly.

  "Hehe, good little brother, since you called me sister, I naturally can't let you lose out... Hmm, but I don't have any gifts on me right now, I'll make it up to you later." Yu Jie said this, and her tone also became slightly awkward.

  Xiao Chen heard this and smiled faintly, saying: "Sister is being too serious, you and I can meet each other, it's already a fate. Why attach importance to external things? In human relationships, what matters most is affection, isn't that right?"

  "Brother is right, it's sister who is being stubborn." Yu Ji heard this and was even more satisfied with Xiao Chen as a brother. "However, sister isn't completely useless in helping you either. The skeletal frame you obtained from the sealed land is actually a remarkable ghost dao treasure from ancient times. But that old woman didn't understand how to control it, so the treasure was wasted. I'll teach you the method of control now, and if you use it properly in the future, this item will be a great help."

  Yu Ji finished speaking, and Xiao Chen suddenly felt that there was an extra text in his primordial spirit. Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be the method of acknowledging the master, refining and controlling the skeleton.

  It turned out that this skeleton was a notorious ghostly treasure in ancient times, called the Asura Bone. It was made by adding various ghostly treasures to the skeleton of a living monk and refining it. Its main function is to harm people's primordial spirit and pollute their magical artifacts. Moreover, the power of the skeleton will gradually increase and evolve with the number of killings, and its power can be extremely great in the later period.

  Xiao Chen was overjoyed at the sight, with this object in hand, under unexpected circumstances, he could also make his opponent suffer a great deal.

  ————————————————————————————————————

  Half a month passed in the blink of an eye, and after Xiao Chen refined the treasures he had obtained, he continued to take elixirs and meditate. During this time, he also opened his furnace to refine elixirs and produced a large quantity of spiritual medicine, which he carefully stored away. After all, thanks to this trip outside, he was able to preserve his life, and the many elixirs on him were truly meritorious.

  Today, on the couch, Xiao Chen's tightly closed eyes slowly opened, a green light flashed in his eyes and disappeared, he spat out a mouthful of slightly turbid air, and his entire body was restored to its peak state, whether it was the spiritual energy inside his body or his divine consciousness, both became even more refined.

  "The half-month deadline has arrived, and the Master's Condensing Elixir Grand Ceremony is something that cannot be missed. With my current cultivation of the Primordial Spirit, it's only a hair's breadth away from being comparable to the late stage of Building Foundation. I reckon it shouldn't be possible for the Sect Leader or Master to see through my cultivation." Xiao Chen thought this and felt slightly at ease in his heart, and he also had some confidence in the "Mixed Yuan Divine Classics" method of gathering and calming his breath.

  Leaving the Medicine Garden, the spiritual medicine scattered randomly in the valley also grew vigorously, and Xiao Chen nodded in satisfaction. He opened the seal at the entrance of the valley and headed towards the main hall of the sect's main peak.

  Beihua State's cultivation level is extremely backward, and the Golden Elixir stage is the highest honorific title of "Old Ancestor".

  So this time, the Luoyun Valley's Pharmaceutical Path successfully condensed the elixir, and the entire Luoyun Valley suddenly increased in strength. A grand ceremony was held to condense the elixir, widely inviting fellow practitioners to attend and pay their respects, not without the intention of showing off their strength. After all, with two golden elixirs, this kind of strength is already a top-notch existence in Beihua State, and the benefits and scope of influence of this sect will have to be re-divided once again.

  The various sects and schools that received the invitation were also not daring to be careless, bringing their elite disciples to attend the ceremony. For a time, the entire Northern Huazhou Daoist community was stirred up.

  In the south of Luoyun Valley, three hundred miles away, a group of people stood facing the wind on top of a strange snake with a body as green as jade, with two wings growing on its back, and its length was over ten zhang.

  "Senior brother, this time the Medicine Path's Subduing Dan was successful, and the strength of Lu Yun Valley has greatly increased. I'm afraid that the Ling Stone mine in Feng Lin Mountain will be taken by them this time?" The two old men at the front spoke, with the red-haired one speaking with a tone of unwillingness.

  "Junior brother, why must you be so stubborn? In the Cultivation Realm, strength is paramount and the strong are revered. Since Lu Yun has the ability to defeat Cloud Valley, he naturally deserves more cultivation resources. You and I have been cultivating for nearly two hundred years, yet you still haven't grasped this point. How can you succeed in condensing the Golden Elixir if you don't understand this?" The old man with a flushed face and wearing luxurious robes standing beside him was none other than Xuan Qing, the leader of Di Ling Men, another major sect in North Huazhou.

  "The elder brother teaches, and the younger brother follows his teachings obediently." The old man with red hair blushed slightly and immediately bowed respectfully.

  Xuan Zhen Daoist let out a faint sigh in his heart, this junior brother's spiritual root was not bad, and his cultivation had already reached the realm of False Dan. Alas, his mental nature was not cultivated enough, and he could not condense the dan, otherwise how would he have been suppressed by Lu Yun Valley and handed over the spirit stone mine that he had just found?

  Six hundred miles southwest, there is a giant centipede with a body over twenty feet long, born with thousands of legs, and a mouth full of rolling stench flying towards the sky. The spiritual pressure on its body has reached the late stage of foundation building, it is a top-notch second-class demon beast.

  On the back of this monster, more than a dozen people sat cross-legged. The leader was an old man in black clothes with a gloomy face.

  "This time, Lu Yun Valley has added another Golden Elixir, greatly increasing its strength. My Hei Sha Men cannot afford to lose face. This Thousand-Legged Centipede is extremely poisonous and has a massive body with boundless strength. It can even contend with Golden Elixir cultivators for a while, which can prevent that Lu Yun Valley from making excessive demands."

  Far to the north, three giant toads, one large and two small, with ugly appearances, flew through the clouds and fog, occasionally letting out a low hum that shook the heavens like thunder.

  On the three toads, dozens of people sat cross-legged, each with three old men sitting at the top. These three men were all in black shirts, and their appearance was exactly the same, surprisingly they were triplets born from the same mother.

  "The master of the gate is protected by the great elder."

  "This time, it's just you and our three brothers going."

  "I wonder if Yun Gu will intentionally make things difficult?"

  Three people, one sentence each, connected perfectly, as if they had long been accustomed to doing so.

  "If the elder succeeds, then proceed according to the original plan."

  "If something unexpected happens, let's just drop it and not bring up the dispute over the sect again."

  "It should be so."

  Three people looked at each other, simultaneously casting their spells. Underneath them, three giant toads opened their mouths and let out a muffled roar in unison. Their speed increased by several times in an instant, but in the blink of an eye, they vanished into the horizon.

  Cloud-Falling Valley, Welcome Immortal Platform.

  On the other hand, a gigantic bluestone with an area of hundreds of square meters, shining with a forbidden light all over its body, floated in mid-air, and as soon as it came face to face, it gave people a thick and heavy pressure, making one's heart secretly tremble.

  On the bluestone above, there were many people from Liuyun Valley's four veins, who were in charge of receiving guests from various sects. Among them were even some elderly guardians who had built their foundation.

  "Shaolin Master has arrived!"

  "Moonlight Sect Master, arrive!"

  "Hutu Zongzhu, arrived!"

  Occasionally, a flash of light would appear in the sky, and a disciple from Luoyun Valley would come to greet them. After verifying their identity, they would shout out a report, and someone would be dispatched according to their status to receive them.

  At this moment, a flying snake with a size of over ten zhang and a pair of wings on its back flew quickly from the distant horizon. Although it had not approached yet, the faintly visible powerful pressure was enough to make everyone's face change color slightly.

  On the Xian platform, several elderly cultivators who had reached the foundation period in Liu Yun Gorge heard this and showed a few points of caution on their faces. With a flash of light on their bodies, they personally went to welcome him.

  "I don't know which Taoist friend has arrived, but in Xiayun Valley, Chi Wei is waiting with three junior brothers to welcome your esteemed presence."

  That flying snake was extremely fast, and in an instant it arrived in front of the four people. Suddenly, it retracted its speed, opened its big mouth, and let out a shocking scream. In an instant, a fierce and evil aura rushed towards them, causing the faces of Chi Wei and the other three to change slightly.

  "Heh heh, this evil beast has a big temper. Being called over to serve as a temporary mount is quite annoying, and there may be some disrespect. Please don't mind, fellow Daoists." Just then, a gentle voice came from the flying snake, and with a flash of light, the master of the Earth Spirit Gate, Xuan Qing, appeared before the four people.

  Several figures flew quickly behind him, although they were not old, but each had a strong breath, obviously the best among the young generation of his school.

  "Please see Senior Xuan Qing, the Sect Master is currently helping Medicine Uncle to consolidate his cultivation and cannot welcome you in person. Please don't mind, everyone, this way." Chi Wei's tone was respectful and polite, although Lu Yun Valley had two Golden Dan existences at the moment, but Xuan Qing was also a Golden Dan realm after all, he didn't dare to be presumptuous.

  "Alright, but the flying snake I brought with me has a rather violent temper, so be careful when you're taking care of it and don't get hurt." Xuan Qing smiled and nodded, seemingly not worried about it at all. However, regarding Chi Wei's words about consolidating his cultivation, he was completely skeptical, after all, Yao Daozi had broken through to the Golden Elixir stage nearly half a month ago, so his cultivation should have already been consolidated.

  At this moment, the southwest direction suddenly rolled up with clouds and fog, and a fierce and evil aura surged forward. By now, all the small sects and factions have arrived, and the one who will appear next must be a major power from Beihua State.

  This time, several flashes of light appeared on the welcoming stage again, and they rushed towards this group of people.

  "Cloud Valley Elder Mo Li, may I ask which sect's friend has arrived?"

  Mo Li's cultivation had already reached the late stage of foundation building, and at this moment, he was less than a hundred years old. It was highly likely that he would break through to the Golden Elixir realm. At this moment, in Luoyun Valley, apart from the sect leader and the alchemist, he could be considered one person above ten thousand people. However, from the giant centipede with a body over twenty feet long and thousands of legs born on its abdomen in front of him, he felt wave after wave of threat, and it was clear that this demon beast's strength was not weaker than his.

  "Hei Sha Men, I've come to pay my respects!" The old man in black clothes said calmly with his eyes wide open.

  "It turned out to be Ming Xiao, the senior. During the closed-door meditation of the sect leader and Medicine Master, we should have been more careful." Mo Li was slightly startled upon hearing this, as Ming Xiao's cultivation had already reached the middle stage of Golden Elixir, with unpredictable divine abilities and a temperament that was prone to sudden changes in mood; he naturally didn't dare show any disrespect.
