From A Stronghold NPC To The Final BOSS - Chapter 504

Chapter 504 – 504 Chapter 504 No Longer Hiding

504 Chapter 504 no longer hiding

In the sky, the waves were surging.

In the dark night, the sun shone brightly.

!!
In the past few days, many strange phenomena appeared in the sky array sect.

Everyone who saw this scene was shocked.

“A natural phenomenon!”

“Is Fang xinglan really going to break through to the celestial realm?”

his qi and blood are already declining. Where did he get the confidence to break through? ”

In the fallen Moon mansion, many experts were shocked and confused.

…..

Breaking through to the Deva realm wasn’t something that could be done with one’s mouth.

In order to do this, he had to be fully prepared.

In their eyes.

Fang xinglan’s vitality was failing, and the success rate of a breakthrough was at most 10 to 20%.

Under such circumstances, the other party still dared to force a breakthrough. Either the sky array sect had gone crazy, or they had other trump cards.

Now that the phenomenon had appeared, although it did not mean that Fang xinglan had successfully broken through, it did mean that he had already entered the stage of breaking through.

The cool mountain spirit domain.

During this period of time, the news of the sky array sect had spread like wildfire, and even Yuan sect had received a lot of news.

“Sect master, does Fang xinglan’s breakthrough have anything to do with our sect?”

Xu Yuanming asked with a serious expression.

This matter.

He had his suspicions long ago.

Otherwise, why would Fang xinglan come here time and time again? then, he would immediately start preparing to break through to the next realm.

Qin shujian nodded and smiled faintly. it’s just a win-win situation. If the sky array sect can afford it, I’ll give them this opportunity. As for whether they succeed or not, it doesn’t have much to do with us.

“If Fang xinglan succeeds in breaking through, I’m afraid that he’ll also cause a commotion in the cultivation world.”

so be it. That’s the fallen Moon Manor’s problem. This fire will never affect our North cloud Manor. Besides, Fang xinglan’s breakthrough might be a good thing for us.

Qin shujian said in a nonchalant manner.

In his opinion, Fang xinglan’s breakthrough was not a big deal.

Even if the other party had broken through, he would only be a newly-ascended celestial being.

From the sky array sect’s attitude.

After Fang xinglan achieved a breakthrough, there was a high probability that he would form an alliance with the yuan sect.

Moreover …

Even if Fang xinglan were to take ten thousand steps back and renege on his promise after his breakthrough and refuse to form an alliance with the yuan sect, it would not matter.

With Yuan sect’s current strength …

Having one more ally was a good thing, but one less ally might not necessarily be a bad thing.

No matter what, it would not affect Yuan sect much.

When he saw this.

Xu Yuanming could not help but ask, “the sect leader really has a way to help someone break through to the celestial realm. Could it be that he’s lending our sect’s imminent supreme-ruler level cultivation technique to Fang xinglan to study?”

It was a method to break through to the Deva realm.

This made people curious.

Qin shujian said calmly, ” you’re underestimating Fang xinglan too much. Not only has his cultivation reached the peak of the supreme martial realm, but he’s also been training in this realm for countless years. If it wasn’t for the deterioration of his qi and blood, he would have broken through to the celestial realm long ago.

As for cultivation techniques, as a top sect, how could the sky array sect not have any means to break through to the Deva realm?”

“What about the rumors from the outside world?”

“He just bought a good fortune pill from me.”

“The Fortune pill?” Xu Yuanming was puzzled.

He had never heard of such a pill.

This wasn’t anything strange.

There were so many medicinal pills in the world. Even an Alchemist couldn’t know every kind of medicinal pill, not to mention the creation pill, which was a relatively obscure top grade medicinal pill.

Qin shujian said, ” going against the connate level is called creation. The creation pill is considered a top-grade spiritual pill. After swallowing it, it can allow a person to return to their peak state.

“Hiss!”

“There’s such a pill in the world?!” Xu Yuanming exclaimed in shock.

Recover to peak condition.

This wasn’t just for show.

Older cultivators would usually be crowned with the title of an old master.

Although he was old, one should not ignore the word ‘strong’.

The longer a cultivator lived, the more terrifying the power they accumulated.

Even if as he grew older, his qi and blood would gradually decline, leading to a decline in his strength, his strong foundation still made his strength a fearful thing.

This was the case even for powerhouses with declining vitality.

It would be too terrifying if such an expert was allowed to regain his peak state.

Let’s not talk about the supreme martial slaying the heavenly man.

However, it wasn’t a problem for him to crush cultivators of the same level.

“A good fortune pill!”

Xu Yuanming muttered.

This was the first time he had heard of such a pill, but just hearing about it this time was enough to leave a deep impression on him.

sect master, will the effects of this pill last for a while, or will you be able to recover to your peak state and maintain it forever? ”

among tier 9 medicinal pills, the nature pill can be said to be at the top. What do you think? ”

Qin shujian glanced at him and asked him a question in return.

Upon hearing this.

Xu Yuanming’s heart shook again.

A rhetorical question was already a direct answer.

In other words …

Once a cultivator consumed a nature pill, they would return to their peak state and would be able to maintain it.

As a result.

The effects of the pill were even more terrifying.

don’t take the nature pill too seriously. Although the nature pill can reverse the innate state, it can’t reverse one’s lifespan. When one’s lifespan is exhausted, even if one is at their peak, they will still die.

Even though tier 9 medicinal pills are strong, it’s not to the point where it can reverse the cycle of reincarnation.”

When Qin shujian said this, he had a regretful expression on his face.

Sometimes, he also thought.

If his alchemy realm continued to improve, would he be able to refine such a pill?

He thought about it.

The possibility of this was still very high.

However, it was a pity that he could not do that with his current abilities.

…..

Don’t even talk about doing it.

He had not even touched the threshold.

Xu Yuanming didn’t agree with him and praised, “”It’s enough to just recover to the peak state. Many cultivators can’t break through to the next realm because of their aging body and declining qi and blood.

In the end, he could only die with regrets.

If the news of the nature pill were to spread, it would definitely cause a lot of people to rush over.”

While they were talking.

He then looked at Qin shujian and asked, “”I wonder if the nature pill was concocted by the sect master or by someone else?”

“I refined it.”

Qin shujian picked up his teacup and took a sip. He replied in a neutral tone.

Upon hearing this.

Xu Yuanming’s pupils shrank again.

He knew a little about Qin shujian’s alchemy cultivation. However, he did not expect him to be able to refine such a shocking pill.

For a moment.

He thought of many things through this matter.

He saw Xu Yuanming stand up from his seat and then walk back and forth in the courtyard. He seemed a little restless, but also a little excited.

sect master, may I ask how much it costs to make the nature pill? what is the success rate? ”

the cost is about a few dozen spirit stones. As long as the success rate is stable, it basically won’t fail.

“Hiss!”

Xu Yuanming took a deep breath again.

It would not fail.

If these words were heard by other alchemists, they would probably vomit blood.

The main reason why alchemy was an auxiliary profession and not many people cultivated it was because the success rate was low.

If they were all like Qin shujian and did not fail, then the status of alchemists would definitely rise.

However, to Xu Yuanming, these were not the most important things.

“There are many powerful rogue cultivators in the world. Many rogue cultivators spend a lot of time to reach the peak of a realm due to the lack of resources and cultivation methods. When they want to break through, they can’t because of their old age and the decline of their qi and blood.

If sect master can still refine the nature pill, we can use this to recruit old experts.

In a short period of time, our sect’s strength will definitely increase by a lot.”

He was using the creation pill to recruit experts.

There would definitely be many who would be willing.

After all, a good fortune pill might be a chance for a Second Life.

This was especially true for those at the peak of the spiritual martial force or the peak of the supreme martial force.

If such a person were to break through successfully, the sky sect would have a few more supreme martial realm great cultivators.

As for the Devas …

Xu Yuanming didn’t dare to think about it for the time being.

Qin shujian shook his head in response to his suggestion. He could not help but laugh and say, “”It’s not difficult to make the nature pill, but it’s not easy to collect enough materials. Moreover, the loyalty of the cultivators recruited in this way is also a problem.

In the future, if he was bitten back, it would be a double loss.

With the sect’s current advantage, we might lack supreme martial realm Grand cultivators, but it doesn’t matter much.”

rather than wasting time to recruit these ready-made cultivators, it’s better to distribute these resources to the disciples. I believe that in a few years, they will also grow to an extremely high level.

Xu Yuanming had also calmed down.

In his opinion, recruiting cultivators and expanding the sect’s power was the best thing to do now.

However, since Qin shujian did not agree to it, he could not force him to agree.

In the end …

The other party was still the one who made the decisions in the sect.

Furthermore, Qin shujian’s words made sense.

The only difference was that one was fast and the other was slow.

After his mood cooled down, Xu Yuanming sat back in his seat and smiled.”I’m the one who thought wrong. But I still have the same thing to say. Once the nature pill is out, our sect’s reputation will rise.

In the future, when he recruited disciples, he would also have a great advantage.

Does the sect master plan to spread the news of the nature pill?”

there’s no rush. We’ll talk about it after Fang xinglan and Yin Bancheng have successfully broken through.

Qin shujian gently blew on the tea, and the spirit tea that was originally steaming with steam instantly cooled down by more than half.

Even though some people knew about the nature pill.

However, there were even more people who had never heard of the existence of such a pill.

If Fang xinglan and Yin Bancheng managed to break through successfully, the effect of the creation pill would be great if the sky origin sect took advantage of the opportunity to promote the creation pill.

It didn’t take too long.

Everyone in the world knew the effects of the nature pill.

After all-

The two celestial realm great cultivators were the best publicity.

Moreover …

Qin shujian was also planning to find an opportunity to display his pill-refining skills and recruit a group of outstanding pill-refining Masters.

Disciples could be cultivated with time.

However, alchemists were different. Even if they had the time, they might not be able to cultivate them.

If he were to train them himself.

The price to pay was too high.

From the current situation in the pill refinery Hall, it could be seen that among the apprentices, there were very few who could be promoted to a low-grade Alchemist. As for the alchemists above the low-grade, there were even fewer.

To a top sect.

If an Alchemist wasn’t a high-grade Alchemist, they wouldn’t be of any use.

Instead of wasting his resources and time, he might as well find some ready-made ones.

Loyalty was a problem.

However, with his Dharma eyes, he was not afraid of any major problems.

“When does sect master plan to go to Zong yang city?”

I gave you a one-month deadline before. It should be about time now.

Qin shujian calculated the time. More than 20 days had passed.

now that the monster race has fled and the human race has been unified, I don’t think there will be any major problems in the Liangshan spirit domain before the heaven and earth restriction is broken. It doesn’t matter if I’m in the sect or not.

“How’s the progress with the recruitment of disciples?”

At the moment, the only thing he could be concerned about was the progress of the disciple recruitment.

The more disciples they recruited.

Only then would he be able to contribute more life value points.

When he thought of this.

Qin shujian felt rather fortunate.

The demon race had fled and did not take the demonic beasts of the endless Mountains with them.

Otherwise, the people in the sect didn’t have a place to kill monsters and level up. If they wanted to Harvest Life value, they had no other choice but to start a war between humans.

But from the current attitude of the human Emperor …

They would never allow internal strife in the human race.

The other party had gone to great lengths to feign death and capture Shen Hong and the other Dukes in one fell swoop. This was so that before breaking the restrictions of heaven and earth, they could remove any potential seeds of unrest within the human race.

At this moment.

Whoever dared to jump out first would be the first one to die.

Qin shujian had no intention of falling out with the human Emperor.

Not to mention his relationship with the Imperial court.

Just the strength of the two sides was not on the same level.

Qin shujian would not usually do things like throwing an egg at a rock.

After chatting with Xu Yuanming for a while, he got up and left the miscellaneous Hall, then walked outside.

Not long after.

A Hall had already appeared in Qin shujian’s line of sight.

The words ‘array Hall’ were written on the plaque above the Hall’s entrance.

In the array Hall.

Xiang haoyan was giving his disciple pointers when he sensed something. He waved his hand and said, “”We’ll stop here for today. You can all leave.”

Finished speaking.

He did not pay any attention to the disciples and walked straight out of the array Hall.

He had just left when he coincidentally bumped into Qin shujian, who was walking toward him.

“Sect master!”

“Hall Master Xiang,”

The two of them met briefly, and then they walked into the array Hall together.

Inside the inner hall.

The two of them sat on the left and right.

Xiang haoyou was the first to speak and asked, “”Sect master, may I know why you have come today?”

Hall Master Xiang, do you remember that I gave you a group of array Masters from Marquis northcloud’s residence? ”

Qin shujian said slowly.

Upon hearing this.

“Of course I remember,” Xiang haoqian nodded and replied.

I’ve promised Marquis northcloud’s residence that I’ll nurture a few high-grade array Masters for them within three years. Now that the three-year period is almost up, I wonder how the progress is with Hall Master? ”

As Qin shujian spoke, a disciple from the hall of array formations had already served tea.

This matter.

He had only recently thought of it.

He had no choice.

The group of array Masters from the Marquis of northcloud’s residence was really unremarkable. If he had not thought about going to Zong yang city, he would have almost forgotten about this matter.

Three years seemed to be a long time.

Qin shujian only realized that it had happened in the blink of an eye when he recalled what had happened.

“Don’t worry, sect master,” Xiang haoyou said with a smile,”there are already five people in that group who have broken through to the level of high-grade array Masters.”

“That’s good.”

Qin shujian said with a faint smile.

With five high-grade array Masters, the mission was considered complete.

gather all these people, ” he said. I’ll go to Zong yang city tomorrow, so I’ll take them with me.

“No problem,” he said.

—

Qin shujian thought about it for a while after settling the matters at Marquis northcloud’s residence. He didn’t have anything else to do for the time being.

Another day passed by peacefully.

The next day.

Qin shujian led a group of people and headed toward Liangshan city.

It was different from using the teleportation gate himself. These array Masters were not strong, and their bodies could not withstand the power of space teleportation continuously.

They should have been able to reach Zong yang city very quickly, but they were forcibly delayed for three days.

Within Zong yang city.

The teleportation gate flickered, and a group of people suddenly appeared.

The general guarding the teleportation gate looked over and happened to see the leader. He was only puzzled for a moment before he immediately reacted.

“Greetings, sect leader Qin!”

“You’re welcome,”

Qin shujian also nodded and replied.

When he saw this general, he also remembered.

When he first came to Zong yang city, he was the one guarding the teleportation gate.

After coming out of the teleportation gate.

Qin shujian led these people and headed straight for Marquis northcloud’s residence.

On the other side.

The moment Qin shujian appeared, Marquis northcloud’s residence had already received the news.

When they reached the entrance of the manor, Xiao Hong was already waiting there.

“Sect leader Qin, you have come from afar. I apologize for not welcoming you!”

“Steward Xiao’s words are too serious.” Qin shujian smiled. Then, he pointed at the people behind him and said, “”I, Qin, have fulfilled my promise to Marquis northcloud’s residence.”

“Sect leader Qin, you’ve put in a lot of effort,”

Xiao Hong looked at the people behind him, and the smile on his face widened.

The North cloud Manor’s array Dao had declined.

Marquis northcloud’s residence was even more severely lacking in array Masters.

Now that this group of people had returned from Yuan sect, the situation in the Marquis’s residence had been alleviated.

Xiao Hong arranged for the servants to bring these people in.

He led Qin shujian into the Marquis’s Manor personally.

“I’ve heard that sect leader Qin has arrived. The Marquis is already waiting in the guest hall.”

“It’s my fault for making Marquis northcloud wait.”

“Haha, sect leader Qin’s words are too serious.” Xiao Hong said with a smile.

Not long after.

The two of them arrived at the living room.

“Lord Marquis, I have brought sect master Qin!” Xiao Hong bowed.

“Mm, you can go down first!” Marquis northcloud waved his hand. Xiao Hong bowed and took his leave.

“Greetings, Marquis northcloud.”

Qin shujian cupped his hands as he spoke.

“Sect master Qin, you’re too polite. Please take a seat,” said Marquis northcloud with a faint smile.

Thank you, Marquis northcloud.

“I’m sure sect leader Qin knows the reason why I invited you here.” Marquis northcloud only spoke after Qin shujian sat down, ” His Majesty is about to break the heaven and earth restriction. Before that, the seal of the evil spirit in North cloud Prefecture is a hidden danger.

Therefore, I plan to wipe out all the demons sealed in the North cloud Prefecture before breaking the heaven and earth restriction.”

These things.

Qin shujian had already understood this before he came.

However …

After Marquis northcloud finished speaking, he frowned. Lord Marquis, the sinister Devils are immortal. Sealing the sinister Devils now can be considered as weakening the demonic abyss’s strength. Currently, the remaining sinister Devils in the North cloud Prefecture are all tightly guarded.

Under such circumstances, the possibility of others breaking the seal was not high.

If we kill the evil spirit rashly, the demonic abyss’s power will be boosted when it attacks in the future.”

He had killed the demons of the mortal domain and the true Dominion.

It could be understood that North cloud Manor’s strength was limited and could not take care of so many seals.

However, now that the seal on the evil demons in the spirit field and the other large fields was complete, even the players who were like cancer could not go to these places to cause damage.

On the contrary.

One needed an ancestral weapon to kill evil spirits, and only the great Zhao had one.

In addition to the human Emperor’s words, it was clearly not a suitable method for Marquis North cloud to kill the demons at this time.

if the sinister Devils can return to the demonic abyss, it’s naturally not a good thing to kill them at this time, ” said Marquis northcloud. however, if the sinister Devils can’t return, then there won’t be any problems.

“Is the Imperial court going to use the ancestral weapon?”

“The human race has more than one ancestral weapon.”

Lord Marquis also has an ancestral weapon?!

Qin shujian’s expression changed.

Marquis northcloud’s words made him think of something.

He suddenly remembered.

Back then, the Emperor had said that the great Zhao’s ancestral weapon suppressed the seal of the demonic abyss, but when they attacked the demon race, there was also an ancestral weapon that suppressed the heavenly court.

After breaking through to the Deva realm.

Qin shujian could also tell what a real ancestral weapon was and what a weapon that contained a trace of the ancestral weapon’s power was.

Therefore, the ancestral weapon used to suppress the heavenly court was definitely the original body of the ancestral weapon.

The Imperial court didn’t bring any of the other mighty figures with them when the human Emperor ventured deep into the demons. Instead, they chose to bring Marquis northcloud.

Moreover, there was only one ancestral weapon of the great Zhao dynasty, and it was still suppressing the demonic abyss.

Qin shujian already understood that the extra ancestral weapon might be Marquis northcloud’s source of confidence.

When he thought of this.

Qin shujian was also a little surprised.

Marquis northcloud had an ancestral weapon!

This was something he had never thought of.

On the other side.

Just as Qin shujian’s thoughts were running wild, Marquis northcloud admitted, ” that’s right. I also have an ancestral weapon. I’ll use it to kill the evil demons. I won’t give them the chance to return to the demonic abyss.

In the past, he would not have revealed his ancestral weapon.

But now …

He didn’t have to worry about that.

Since the Emperor already knew that he had an ancestral weapon, there was no need to hide anymore. He might as well take it out openly.

At the same time.

He would also let the others know that apart from him, there was another ancestral weapon in the North cloud Manor.

Anyone who wanted to covet the North cloud Manor would have to consider whether they had the ability to do so.

A single mighty figure was already terrifying enough.

If they had another ancestral weapon, even two or three powerful beings would not dare to covet the North cloud Manor.

“Lord Marquis has truly concealed himself deeply!” Qin shujian couldn’t help but sigh with emotion at this moment. He looked at Marquis northcloud with an indescribable expression, “”I never thought that the human race would have a second ancestral weapon.”

so what if they have two ancestral weapons? the human race still has too few ancestral weapons.

Marquis northcloud shook his head and sighed. “Sect master Qin should know that the three major continents are just a transition for the human race to become stronger. The real problem lies with the mo Yuan.

If we can’t resist the demonic abyss, then everything is just empty talk.”
