Chapter 659: Fighting a Pseudo Tier Six

They once again stared longingly at the Demon Beast Meat in Chen Cheng’s hands.

Chen Cheng, however, ignored them and turned to Xiao Yingluo. “Miss Xiao, are you full?”

“I’m… I’m full.” Xiao Yingluo still hadn’t quite recovered.

“Thanks, then.”

Chen Cheng chuckled, picked up the Large Medicine Furnace, and headed for his cave.

Xiao Yingluo froze on the spot, a look of disappointment immediately crossing her face.

‘Feeding the Demon Rats with the Demon Beast Meat was one thing, but taking the furnace used to cook it, too? Wasn’t that a bit too inconsiderate?’

‘After all, she had gone to the trouble of stewing the Demon Beast Meat. It was a kind gesture, at the very least!’

However, Xiao Yingluo’s disappointment quickly vanished, replaced by a faint smile on her stunning face.

For after entering the cave, the Senior began to devour the Demon Beast Meat right out of the Large Medicine Furnace, even drinking all of the broth.

A moment later, a bonfire flared to life inside the cave!

‘The Senior clearly wasn’t full; he was cooking more Demon Beast Meat himself…’

…

In the days that followed, Chen Cheng continued his daily routine of standing imposingly over the Cold Pool, cultivating his Xuanshuang Realm.

Thanks to the dense Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi, the Gui Water Aura from the Cold Pool, and the additional aura provided by the four Water Element Pearls, his Xuanshuang Realm’s Cultivation Progress increased by tens of thousands of points each day.

The speed was simply astonishing!

However, he never returned the Large Medicine Furnace to Xiao Yingluo.

Xiao Yingluo tried to ask for it back several times, but whenever the words were on the tip of her tongue, she would see the Senior’s wicked grin and lose her nerve.

「A dozen or so days later.」

Early one morning, the Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi near the cave grew dense once again.

Xiao Yingluo stood on a terrace, but she had no heart for Cultivation.

‘What Cultivation Technique is the Senior even practicing?’

‘Should I try asking him…? Ugh… but the Senior is just so aloof. He has a peerless beauty like me right in front of him, yet he never gives me a second glance!’

‘Huh…?’

Suddenly, Xiao Yingluo let out a soft sound of surprise. She took out her Identity Jade Token from her robes and, after carefully inspecting it, discovered several red dots. They were faint at first but quickly grew bright, flashing nonstop.

“Auntie and the others are here! And Ke Dali, Qi Jianming…”

With reinforcements from the Great Dao Sect arriving, Xiao Yingluo had no time for further thought. Her body flickered as she shot away from the Lake Heart Island at top speed.

…

Inside the cave’s secret chamber, Chen Cheng once again activated the Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi from two Source Crystal Jades, frantically cultivating the Primordial Pill Marrow Cleansing Method.

[Primordial Pill Marrow Cleansing Method Cultivation Progress has increased.]

…

More than an hour later, Chen Cheng stopped his Cultivation and summoned his panel to check it.

[Skills: Iron Armor Demon Suppression Skill (Great Success 2344/10000) Primordial Pill Marrow Cleansing Method (Great Success 3529/10000)]

‘My progress is increasing steadily. It feels great!’

‘Perhaps during this excursion, I can reach the Marrow Cleansing Realm Perfection right here in this grotto-heaven. Then, after I leave, I can head straight for the Great Dao Sect and start cultivating the Organ Refining Realm.’

‘And I can also gather some of the Low Grade Organ Refining Pills and top-tier Organ Refining Medicinal Materials needed for the Organ Refining Realm while I’m here!’

‘Of course, I don’t have time to gather them myself, so I suppose I’ll just have to reluctantly acquire them through… robbery!’

‘Of course, the robber will be Xiu Chen. It will naturally have nothing to do with me, Chen Cheng!’

‘Hah!’

‘Speak of the devil. Have more people delivered themselves to my doorstep already?’

‘Two months have passed. These fat sheep should have collected plenty of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Objects and top-tier Medicinal Materials by now, right?’

After tidying up, Chen Cheng grabbed his Military Dao Combat Killing Hammer, strode out of the secret chamber, and casually made his way toward the mouth of the cave.

Outside the cave, a dense crowd of more than a dozen people had already gathered!

More than half of them were from the Great Dao Sect.

“Hey! You’re the pretty boy who’s been bullying our Great Dao Sect’s True Disciple?”

With a turtle shell on his back and a body like a mountain of flesh, Ke Dali glared with small, round eyes and bellowed angrily.
