Chapter 328: Traveling with Qing Yanjing
"Thank you, Senior, for saving my life!"
Seeing her pursuers disappear, Qing Yanjing quickly bowed to Xiao Tian in gratitude.
"Senior?" Xiao Tian was taken aback for a moment but then chuckled. "Actually, I'm not that old. I'm only in my forties, not even fifty yet."
"What?"
Qing Yanjing was astonished. For ordinary people, forty years old is more than half a lifetime. But for cultivators, especially those above the Supreme level, forty years could be just one retreat. Their lifespans last thousands of years.
To think that in such a short time, Xiao Tian had reached at least the Celestial Supreme level. How could that not be surprising?
In the Futuo Ancient Clan, no one could reach the Supreme level at such a young age unless they took a different path, such as advancing their spiritual array skills to become a Grandmaster or controlling a powerful army like the Xuanlong Army. However, these methods relied on external forces, enabling one to have the combat strength of a Supreme without truly reaching that level.
Especially for a War Array Master, combat required a large amount of Supreme spiritual liquid. Once it was exhausted, they would lose their Supreme power.
Xiao Tian shook his head and said, "I was just lucky to have the right opportunities to advance so quickly."
"Luck is also a form of strength!" Qing Yanjing said. "With such great fortune, you are destined to become a prominent figure in the Great Thousand World."
Xiao Tian smiled, "If you don't mind, you can just call me Brother Xiao."
"Brother Xiao! Cough, cough..."
Qing Yanjing said, but then started coughing violently. When she took her hand away from her mouth, it was stained with blood.
"It seems your injuries are quite severe." Xiao Tian flipped his right hand, and a jade bottle appeared out of thin air.
"Whoosh!"
With a flick of his finger, the jade bottle flew to Qing Yanjing and stopped in front of her.
Xiao Tian said, "If you trust me, you can take this pill I made. It should help with your injuries."
"Thank you, Brother Xiao."
Qing Yanjing didn't hesitate. She opened the bottle, took out a lively pill, and swallowed it. Almost immediately, she felt her injuries healing rapidly.
"Brother Xiao's pills are very effective."
Suddenly, she thought of something and asked, "Did you make this yourself?"
"Yes," Xiao Tian nodded. "I am a Grandmaster Alchemist of the Celestial level."
"No wonder your strength is so formidable, and your alchemy skills are also so advanced!"
Qing Yanjing was once again astonished. If Xiao Tian was not lying, his talent would be unprecedented.
Xiao Tian asked, "What are your plans now?"
Qing Yanjing replied, "I need to find a safe place to recover and strive to reach the Celestial Supreme level so that I can control my own destiny."
Xiao Tian suggested, "If you don't mind, I can accompany you for a while. My alchemy skills can help you recover faster."
"How could I refuse such a generous offer?" Qing Yanjing agreed. She was well aware that Xiao Tian might have his motives, but for now, she needed his help to recover quickly.
Together, they flew through the stars for a long time before landing on a continent. Upon learning its name, Xiao Tian felt a bit odd. It was the Hundred Spirit Continent, the home of the protagonist Mu Chen from "The Great Ruler."
Due to his interference, Qing Yanjing didn't lose her cultivation and wouldn't meet Mu Chen's father. Without that encounter, Mu Chen's existence was unlikely. Even if Mu Chen's parents met again, it wouldn't lead to much, as Qing Yanjing still had her cultivation and wouldn't be in danger to be rescued by Mu Feng.
Xiao Tian and Qing Yanjing concealed their cultivation and settled in a remote mountain range of the Hundred Spirit Continent, creating two caves. During this time, Xiao Tian personally made pills for Qing Yanjing. Even though he had many pills from Ling Die Dan Xian, he preferred to give her ones he made himself.
Aside from alchemy, one of Xiao Tian's avatars focused on understanding Ling Die Dan Xian's inheritance, aiming to advance his alchemy skills to a higher level. Having multiple avatars was immensely beneficial for cultivation, allowing one to multitask. He placed this avatar in the Plane Embryo, where time nearly stood still, enabling rapid mastery of the inheritance.
Despite taking a long time in reality, the external world barely noticed. Once he mastered the inheritance, and refined more pills, Xiao Tian's alchemy would reach the level of a Saint Grandmaster. With Saint-level Celestial Supreme power and Saint Grandmaster alchemy skills, he would be able to completely control the Tian Luo Continent.
Additionally, there were several pills from Ling Die Dan Xian that could enhance the strength of Celestial Supremes. While only one pill could boost a Celestial-level Supreme, it would still significantly increase Xiao Tian's combat power.
