Immortality from Taming Elephant-Chapter 398 - 195: After Years, All Professions Maxed Out (2)

Chapter 398: Chapter 195: After Years, All Professions Maxed Out (2)

Moreover, Xu Guang’s rapid cultivation has led many in the Jianghu to suspect he practices some kind of cultivation technique, or perhaps possesses a blessing more terrifying than that of the Celestial Register. But with his ability to refine the Daoist Golden Pill being exposed, these rumors are likely to evaporate.

After all, someone from the Dianyin Sect who could refine the Daoist Golden Pill took only twenty years to go from Entry Grade cultivation to a peerless status in the world.

His name... Zhuge Wuliang.

He suddenly thought of something and looked at the flames beneath Xu Guang’s pill furnace.

His expression became peculiar.

Fire attribute?

During the recent battle, Xu Guang seemed to exhibit Qi Force with gold, water, and wood attributes, and now fire.

Could this kid really be the second coming of Zhuge Wuliang, condensing the Five Elements True Skill?

It seems this guy had it all planned, otherwise he wouldn’t have brought the pill furnace and other Treasure Medicine for refining the Golden Core.

This was well-prepared.

Half a month later.

By the Chujiang River, heavenly thunder roared, and radiant splendor reached the skies.

The pill furnace in front of Xu Guang exploded, and more than ten elixirs shimmering with golden light shot out.

Instead of storing them away, he directly passed them to the Marquis of Everlasting Victory in the distance.

The Marquis of Everlasting Victory’s eyes revealed surprise.

The Golden Core is a renowned elixir of the Daoist Sect; despite being just Fifth Grade, it isn’t only beneficial to Fifth Grade but also to those above Fourth Grade.

"I don’t wish to debate right or wrong; since it’s a Life and Death Contract, it should be settled with a duel."

Xu Guang nodded with a smile, "Thank you, Marquis."

He rose slowly, his body producing cracking sounds after many days of sitting cross-legged.

The crowd was already in an uproar, and everyone’s gaze toward Xu Guang carried an unprecedented radiance.

Can he truly refine a Golden Core!?

"Sect Leader Xu, what do you need to refine a Golden Core? My Niu Family is willing to provide ten times the materials for you to refine one batch."

Upon hearing this, everyone looked at Xu Guang with hopeful eyes.

Xu Guang’s face no longer bore a murderous air, and he nodded with a smile.

"Xu Mou, as the Dragon Gate Sect Leader and Vice Commander of Iron Dragon Pass, must contribute to Zouchuan Dao and the world. All forces can come to Xu Mou for alchemy. Xu Mou’s skill is not excellent; twenty times the materials are required. Additionally, slay ten Fifth-Grade Barbarians for one Golden Core; slay Fourth-Grade Barbarians, and I will personally refine a batch."

The crowd erupted in excitement.

Among the Jianghu folk present, nearly shed tears—what magnanimity this is.

Those scattered cultivators in the Jianghu were the only ones who truly understood their situation. With Xu Guang’s promise, as long as they kill Barbarians, they can obtain a Golden Core. They can team up and hunt the Barbarians.

In an instant, everyone bowed deeply.

"Sect Leader Xu’s great righteousness."

...

The turmoil in Shouyang Prefecture began with Xu Guang challenging Jiang Chendao and ended with Sect Leader Xu’s grand righteousness.

Xu Guang returned to Dragon Gate with Jiang Zi Yun, exposing his alchemy techniques—a decision Xu Guang had long prepared. Ah Wei would soon enter the Fourth Grade, and the required treasures were beyond imagination. He needed to prepare in advance; gathering the world’s resources didn’t necessarily have to be violent.

Jiang Zi Yun aided Xu Guang, in some sense, as a traitor to the Jiang Family.

However, when Xu Guang proposed taking her along, the Marquis of Everlasting Victory agreed, as did the Three Ancestors, including Jiang Hong.

Under the Tiger’s Mouth Cliff at Dragon Gate.

Looking at the waterfall cascading from the sky like a galaxy, Gongsun Wang smiled contentedly, "This time you stole the spotlight; if the Barbarians hear of this, they won’t let you off."

Xu Guang gently stretched his hand, stirring the mist caused by the waterfall crashing to the ground, "If I don’t steal the spotlight, would the Barbarians let me off?"

Gongsun Wang was taken aback, then burst into laughter.

"True, but besides the Barbarians, be careful of the Celestial Destiny Sect."

Xu Guang frowned, thinking of something, "Rumors in the Jianghu say that the Celestial Destiny Sect is related to Senior Xin Nanyan? How could that kind of figure create such a shady mouse-like force?"

Gongsun Wang shook his head, "I discussed this with Zhuge Wuliang; the Celestial Destiny Sect is related to Purple Dipper but unrelated to Senior Xin Nanyan. It hasn’t been wiped out only because its Left and Right Sect Leaders are indeed top-notch, and it possesses Purple Dipper’s Magical Treasure for protection."

Xu Guang understood but didn’t ask further. These matters didn’t concern him much.

Gongsun Wang eventually departed.

The next day, Xu Guang visited Old Li’s grave to pay his respects.

In the days that followed, Xu Guang entered a period of silence, though the flow of visitors to Dragon Gate Mountain seeking elixirs was continuous.

To encourage his disciples and better harvest experience, Xu Guang announced the formation of the Pill Hall, inviting anyone with the talent of an Alchemist to join.

He personally assumed the position of Hall Master of the Pill Hall.

In just half a month, the Pill Hall swiftly became the strongest branch of Dragon Gate.

Despite having only four members.

Ten thousand people is a vast number; indeed, some children therein possessed talents in alchemy and medicine. Of course, compared to the world, ten thousand could not be considered a large number. Although the three children’s alchemy talents were decent, they were only decent. 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂

In the future, they might be able to refine Fifth-Grade Elixirs; perhaps that would be their limit. Refining the Golden Core would depend on their future fortunes.

Meanwhile, throughout Zouchuan Dao, with people continuously bringing Barbarian heads to Dragon Gate to exchange for Golden Cores, turmoil ensued.

The Underworld and orthodox forces went nearly mad, with Changsong Prefecture becoming the area with the most Martial Artists in Zouchuan Dao. Each day saw Martial Artists falling and Barbarians being slain.

But...

July.

The Barbarian Army returned fiercely.

Blood flowed like rivers through Changsong Prefecture.

The individuals of Iron Armor Sect, who had perfected themselves under Dragon Gate’s care and reached the Innate Great Training Level, were besieged by hundreds of Barbarians.

"We’ve been discovered; what to do in the sect?"

Yu Shaohua, his arm severed, naturally had reached the Innate level. But at this moment, Innate among hundreds of Barbarians didn’t count for much.

Tie Kuang laughed heartily.

"In my life, I’ve schemed against countless people, yet I never thought I would die besieged by the Barbarian Army. Hahaha, delightful, delightful!"
