Chapter 640 - 614: Just Perish Already! Full of Fire

Among the countless masses, some are born ordinary, and some are born extraordinary.

Martial Arts Talent was just like that. Those with superior talent could change their fate.

Without talent, consuming any amount of Cultivation Resources was ultimately futile.

The former Yang Chan had been one of these ordinary people. His Martial Arts Talent was so poor that he had virtually no gift for Martial Arts Cultivation. Comprehending Power in his lifetime would have been an incredibly difficult feat.

However, all of that changed after he acquired his panel and Potential Points, and especially after he discovered the effects of the Tai Chi Health Cultivation Skill.

’The major Holy Lands are all gathering in Purple Star City!’

Yang Chan thought as he read the intelligence report. It stated that various powers were converging on Purple Star City to jointly deal with the Alien Race.

This report had come from Han Bingyu via the Cyan Yuan Sect’s channels, and the news put Yang Chan greatly at ease.

’At least with these major powers on the front lines, Qing State will be relatively safe,’ he mused. ’The only condition is that the battlefield doesn’t spread this far.’

Furthermore, empires and kingdoms like the Rising Sun Empire, the Celestial Wind Imperial Dynasty, the Thousand Seas Realm, and the Glacier Snow Country had also sent forces to jointly combat the Alien Race. With so many powers united, Yang Chan didn’t believe the aliens could stir up any more significant trouble.

The powers gathering now represented most of the strongest factions on the Taiyu Divine Continent. They were uniting to annihilate the Alien Race, giving it no time to grow.

’Just get wiped out already, you Alien Race!’

Yang Chan’s gaze turned toward Yu City. The Alien Race had been stirring restlessly, but they hadn’t conquered any new cities. He didn’t know what they were up to.

But that didn’t matter now. As long as the entire Alien Race was annihilated, whatever they were plotting would be pointless—a futile effort.

"According to the news we’ve received, the major powers should be making their move against the Alien Race within the next two days!"

Han Bingyu said.

She was the one who compiled this intelligence, so naturally, she knew more.

"When Blood Exchange Martial Saints clash, the commotion from the battle will be anything but small."

Yang Chan had witnessed the Combat Power of experts at this level. Even though there was some distance between Qing State and Purple Star City, they couldn’t just rest easy.

"During this time, you should also stay in the Cyan Yuan Sect. It’s best not to stray too far from Yuanqing Courtyard!"

Yang Chan glanced at Han Bingyu and continued.

He had created numerous tunnels in Yuanqing Courtyard, which might prove useful at a critical moment.

The power of a Blood Exchange Martial Saint was immense, but it couldn’t penetrate too deep underground, making it a relatively safe refuge.

’I should dig the tunnels a little deeper!’

Yang Chan thought to himself.

As long as ventilation wasn’t an issue, he could stay underground for as long as he wanted. As for things like food, he wasn’t lacking at all.

Inside his Profound Yin Hanging Bead, he had stockpiled a large amount of food, strength-enhancing Elixirs, and even Refined Pills that could serve as a meal replacement. In fact, the supplies he had on hand were enough to keep him alive in isolation for thirty years without starving.

This was due to the special nature of the Profound Yin Hanging Bead. Items stored inside would not spoil; it had the effect of preserving the essential properties of food.

For Yang Chan, this took care of any logistical worries.

However, if he went into hiding, his Daily Potential Point Collection would plummet. Over time, it would dwindle even further. Thus, under normal circumstances, Yang Chan would never choose such an option.

Potential Points were crucial for advancing his Cultivation, so naturally, the more he had, the better.

"Okay. During this time, aside from arranging for people to gather intelligence, I will stay in Yuanqing Courtyard and not go out!"

To gather intelligence, Han Bingyu sometimes had to leave the Cyan Yuan Sect, but she never strayed far from its sphere of influence. This was all to ensure she could receive new information immediately and deliver it to Yang Chan within the sect.

Given Yang Chan’s warning, Han Bingyu naturally had no objections.

She would act according to Yang Chan’s will.

...

"Phew... I’ve finally refined a Qingli Nourishing Marrow Pill."

In the Alchemy Secret Room of the Earth Fire Institute, Yang Chan let out a long breath.

Refining the Qingli Nourishing Marrow Pill had not been a smooth process. The main issue was his lack of familiarity with it. If not for the fact that his current materials were particularly suitable for this specific elixir, Yang Chan would have opted to refine something else.

Between difficulty and quantity, Yang Chan had decisively chosen quantity. It was a choice made with the long term in mind.

A stable Daily Potential Point Collection was much better than one that fluctuated wildly.

"Pharmacist Yang, your comprehension is truly incredible. You managed to reverse-engineer the problems in the refining process using just these bits of information. That’s how you succeeded in refining the Qingli Nourishing Marrow Pill so quickly."

Princess Lan Yue watched him. Yang Chan had only consulted a few alchemical Insights and the information she had provided, yet he had managed to successfully refine a Qingli Nourishing Marrow Pill in just a few days. It once again shattered her perception of him, but by now, she was getting used to it.

Having witnessed his abilities before, she was no longer as shocked as she had been initially.

In her eyes, Yang Chan’s abilities had long surpassed those of an ordinary person, reaching an unimaginable level.

He was the most powerful Pharmacist she had ever met in her life, a being with the greatest talent she had ever witnessed.

"Unfortunately, it’s just an ordinary Qingli Nourishing Marrow Pill. It hasn’t reached the Top Quality Level yet!"

Holding the newly refined Qingli Nourishing Marrow Pill, Yang Chan didn’t look particularly pleased. He felt it was a bit of a shame.

The Medicinal Properties of this pill were still a bit lacking, a result of his imperfect refining process. This meant the pill wouldn’t provide him with as many Potential Points as he had anticipated.

’Still, successfully refining it at all is a great start. Now that I’ve succeeded once, reaching Top Quality is just a matter of time.’
