Chapter 98: The Fall of the Six Far Eastern Territories (45)
Chen An narrowed his eyes slightly, guessing that Qingyun Sect had obtained a lot of spiritual medicines during the trip to the secret realm, and there should be something to assist in forming the pill.
I'm afraid that in a few years, the Qingyun Domain will undergo a drastic change.
The two exchanged a few pleasantries, and Fairy Red Leaf stated the purpose of her visit.
In fact, even if the other party didn't say it, Chen An could guess that in order to persuade Qingyun Sect last time, he used the Tianling Fruit as a price to force the other party to move the defense line south.
Now, five or six years have passed, and it is time to trade the Heavenly Spirit Fruit with the other party again.
Chen An did not hesitate. After all, the other party really did what he said, so there was nothing to say.
It was really worth it for Chen An to resolve a crisis with some second-level spiritual fruits.
After trading five Heavenly Spiritual Fruits, Chen An took the bag of spiritual medicine handed over by the other party.
They are all second-level. Although their value is not as high as the Tianling Fruit, Chen An did not say anything.
Now the second-level elixir was of little use to Chen An, so he just glanced at it and ignored it.
Fairy Red Leaf pursed her red lips and said meaningfully, "Fellow Daoist Chen, during the last trip to the secret realm, many sects were not very satisfied with your Chen family's performance. If the demon cultivators attack again, I'm afraid they won't be able to take such good care of your Yunwu Mountain."
Chen An was stunned for a moment, then he reacted.
Before heading to the secret realm, he told Chen Fengshuo and others that saving their lives was the most important thing and that they should stay as safe as possible.
In this way, the demon cultivators cannot be restrained too much, and the pressure on Qingyun Sect becomes slightly greater. Although it does not have a big impact on the strength of Qingyun Sect, it still makes the other side unhappy.
"There's no other way. Except for Chen Fengshuo, all the other six of them are at the first or second foundation building level. They really can't contribute much. They can only try their best to preserve their lives and contribute more in the next secret realm." Chen An explained calmly.
"This time is nothing, but you should take care of yourself in the future and try your best to cooperate with Qingyun Sect. As Yuer's master, this is all I have to say. I can only remind you this much." Fairy Hongye frowned and reminded.
"Thank you for your kindness, fairy!" Chen An said with sincere gratitude.
For the time being, the hidden danger of the demonic cultivators has not been eliminated, and there are many foundation-building cultivators in Yunwu Mountain who are still useful, so the Qingyun Sect will not launch an attack immediately.
But I have to be more low-key in the future. It’s enough to do this once. The next time it will definitely not be as easy as it is now.
Chen An pondered for a moment and couldn't help asking, "May I ask, Fairy, what is the Yin Demon Sect doing now? Will they invade again?"
Fairy Red Leaf exhaled orchid breath, sighed slightly, and said: "I will definitely come again!"
"You should have been able to see some clues from the last battle. The Jindan strength of both sides was equal, and neither could do anything to the other. Both sides gained a lot from this trip to the secret realm, and are accumulating strength to prepare for the next war."
"From the current perspective, within three to five years, if the strength of the two sides does not change significantly, there should be no more disputes."
Chen An nodded slightly, looking slightly relieved on the surface, but actually ecstatic in his heart.
Three to five years would be enough time for him to form a pill!
Three or four immortal tree fruits can be refined in about one or two years, and the refining speed will increase slightly as the cultivation level improves.
That should be enough time!
"but.."
Fairy Hongye changed the subject and said, "I heard that the Jiyin Sect invaded from the north and has occupied the Changhe Sect. I'm afraid that the Tianxing Pavilion won't be able to hold out for long. The Lihuo Palace is sending more people to resist the demon cultivators."
Between the six regions of the Far East and the Demonic Path lies the 100,000-mile-long Black Wind Mountains, which are filled with monsters and beasts, including a fourth-order monster king whose strength is comparable to that of a human Nascent Soul cultivator. It is very inconvenient to travel between them, and there is only a plain in the north that is freely accessible.
The Black Wind Mountain in the south is a branch extending from the 100,000-mile Black Wind Mountain Range. It is less dangerous, so the Yin Demon Sect was able to cross it and invade the Qingyun Domain.
Chen An heard this and his face was stern: "Nascent Soul Sect!"
"But don't worry too much."
Fairy Hongye explained, "The Jiyin Sect is very far away from the Qingyun Domain, and we can't reach it. So we focus our main energy on the north. For the time being, our only enemy is the Yinmo Sect." Chen An thought for a moment. The Changhe Sect is tens of thousands of miles away from the Qingyun Domain, and there is also the Yuanying Sect's Lihuo Palace in between. It is unknown when the other side will attack.
He felt relieved and immediately talked with the other party for a while, learning more about the recent situation in the six regions of the Far East.
Not long after, Chen An sent the other party away and found Chen Qing again.
Instruct the other party to restrain the foundation building on the mountain, and not to go out unless necessary, and to keep a low profile as much as possible.
Chen Qing has been in charge of the family for many years and understands the ins and outs of it. He will do his best to handle this matter.
"By the way, how is Chen Yu doing?"
Chen An asked, Chen Yu also entered the secret realm last time and gained some opportunities.
Chen Qing looked quite pleased with himself, and said, "Yu'er has already reached the second level of foundation building over the years. Thanks to the trip to the secret realm this time, she should be able to reach the third level of foundation building in a year or so."
"So good."
Chen An nodded, asked a few questions and then paid no more attention.
Chen Yu's aptitude is not very good. Without a great opportunity, it would be difficult for him to advance to the late stage of foundation building, let alone form a pill.
After sending Chen Qing away, Chen An sat upright on the cushion and felt the spiritual energy in the cave which had become much richer.
The trunk of the immortal tree has decayed and gradually melted into the soil of the spiritual field. It won't be long before the spiritual field will be promoted to the fourth level, and the spiritual energy in the cave will be as rich as that of a fourth-level spiritual vein.
After returning to the cave, Chen An took out a fairy tree fruit, took a small bite, and continued his retreat and practice.
Half a year later, after refining another fruit, Chen An's cultivation level just advanced to the ninth level of foundation building.
Just as he was about to continue his cultivation, he discovered that Chen Zhan had been standing at the entrance of the cave, wandering around.
Been waiting for a long time.
"Come in!"
Chen Zhan, who was outside, was delighted and hurried into the cave. He walked to Chen An and bowed, saying, "Senior, I want to go out for training!"
"Why?"
"I have already mastered the second level of the Demonic Ape Body Refining Technique, but the development of our family has stagnated in recent years, and there are not many resources that can be provided to me. I want to go out and look for opportunities." After Chen Zhan finished speaking, he looked at Chen An expectantly.
"No!"
Chen An refused outright. The situation was tense recently. If he let the boy go down the mountain, given his bellicosity, he might cause some trouble.
"My senior" Chen Zhan was caught off guard. He hummed a few times but didn't say anything.
Chen An raised his eyes slightly and said coldly: "You are not mature enough now. Just practice for a few more years and I will let you go down the mountain."
Three years later, he had almost reached the stage of forming an elixir, so he didn't have to worry about this matter anymore and could just let this kid do whatever he wanted.
Chen Zhan lowered his eyebrows and eyes, not daring to disobey, and said reluctantly: "Yes, I will go back and practice well now."
"Get out of here!"
Chen An drove him away, and with a sweep of his spiritual sense, he found that Chen Kebao was still practicing quietly in his cave.
"Yes, this boy will become a great man in the future!"
Chen An nodded with satisfaction. The more he looked at Chen Kebao, the more he liked him.
He struck while the iron was hot and took out another fairy tree fruit, taking a small half of it in one bite.
