A furnace of seven-grade, seven-colored Spirit Cultivation Pills!

Su Qing's Heavenly Gang Soul-Suppressing Talisman completely expelled the demonic energy around Black Sand Lake, and the demonic herbs that had been tainted by the demonic energy were also restored.

The highest-grade spiritual herb in Black Sand Lake is that rose.

After the demonic energy dissipated, the black rose finally revealed its true form: a seven-colored dragon-patterned rose.

Su Qing picked the most colorful roses and specially refined a batch of seventh-grade pills that could expand one's sea of ​​consciousness.

Those who remain here are all cultivators who have overcome their inner demons and opened their sea of ​​consciousness. This batch of Grade 7 Seven-Colored Spirit Cultivation Pills is absolutely perfect for them.

Under the temptation of the Seven-Colored Spirit-Nourishing Pill, Protector Jiang finally suppressed his distracting thoughts and opened his eyes.

"Master!"

Yue Lan shouted excitedly.

Protector Jiang slowly sat up and looked in the direction from which the fragrance of elixir was coming.

I……

He wanted to lie down again...

This... this can't be a dream, right?

The alchemy furnace, standing a full ten meters tall, had produced pills that Su Qing had already cut into the size of ordinary pills, but the quantity was still terrifying.

Which alchemist refines pills in batches?

A full five thousand pills!

A master alchemist is already considered a genius if they can produce a few dozen of these seventh-grade pills in one batch. He has never heard of anyone making several thousand of these pills in all his years of life.

"Guardian Jiang, this jar is yours." Su Qing tossed a jar over to him. Guardian Jiang caught it; it was heavy. He opened it and took a quick look; there were over a hundred pills inside.

Jiang, the protector, was completely frozen.

As a Nascent Soul Protector of the Xuanling Sect, he could only receive one Grade 7 pill from the sect each month. Unexpectedly, Su Qing gave him a whole jar of them.

Chu Yuncheng and Luo Shenmeng were also excited. They hadn't even been able to eat a few of the Grade 7 Five Elements Primordial Pills they had obtained before, and now they had gotten a jar of Grade 7 Seven-Colored Spirit Cultivation Pills.

They were merely Core Formation elders of their sect, receiving only one Grade 7 pill a year. Now, having received so many pills, they were incredibly moved.

Protector Jiang sat up, staring blankly at Shui Qingchen, who was assisting Su Qing.

How long has it been since they entered the Gobi Desert, and Shui Qingchen has already reached the Nascent Soul stage? But how come a Nascent Soul alchemist is working as an assistant to Su Qing, a mid-Core Formation alchemist?

Then, Protector Jiang saw a pile of black bones in front of Qiu Feiyang.

Seriously? Qiu Feiyang is going to mass-produce magical artifacts too?

Doesn't that mean I, as a protector of the Xuanling Sect, will have to work as Qiu Feiyang's assistant?

Protector Jiang felt that he might as well lie on the ground and remain unconscious, so that this nightmare would end quickly.

Fortunately, Qiu Feiyang was not as extraordinary as Protector Jiang had imagined; he simply used the skeleton to reinforce his giant puppet.

Protector Jiang himself was a weapon refiner, and finally he found a bit of confidence in Qiu Feiyang.

Exactly! How can there be so many geniuses, like Su Qing, who completely dominate others?

"Yue Lan, you've also reached the Core Formation stage?" Protector Jiang finally realized that his disciple Yue Lan had reached the Core Formation stage.

"Master, not only have I formed my core, but I also have a special talent!" Yue Lan said, summoning her Azure Fire Wolf. Although it was still a bit weak, it was still capable of growth. Moreover, when Yue Lan formed her Nascent Soul in the future, she could awaken another special talent.

Protector Jiang watched as the Azure Fire Wolf wandered around for a moment before Yue Lan put it away, and his throat felt a little bitter.

He was at a loss for words!

He was determined to keep his innate skill of feigning death a secret and would not tell anyone.

"I received a message from the sect that because a powerful demonic cultivator has appeared in the Gobi Desert, our Xuanling Sect has withdrawn from the sect competition. You can teleport out by crushing the counting spirit stones," Protector Jiang announced to everyone.

"Can we...can we stop competing?" Chu Yuncheng asked excitedly.

He really couldn't stand it anymore; these demonic cultivators were too ferocious and terrifying.

Unexpectedly, Su Qing raised her head and said calmly, "I don't want to leave here for the time being."

Um?

Su Qing felt a bitter taste in her mouth. She didn't want to get involved in the Gobi Desert, but she couldn't just leave like that. The Demon Realm had issued a kill order against her, and Su Ruoshan was in the Demon Realm.

We should eliminate these threats now before the demons become too powerful, otherwise they will become a major calamity for the Boundless Continent in the future.

“I think the experience in the Gobi Desert was quite good,” Xuan Qingye said.

ah?

Shui Qingchen and Qiu Feiyang exchanged a glance, then chimed in, "There are still some places in the Gobi Desert that we haven't explored yet. We plan to go and see if we can find any good materials."

What?

Ling Yunzhi, Wen An, and Xin Guangsi remained silent for a long time, then took a deep breath and said, "We are all in the same team. The team leader hasn't disbanded us, and we don't want to leave either."

you……

"Master, I don't want to go back either," Yue Lan said, bowing her head.

Chu Yuncheng and Luo Shenmeng, who had already packed up to leave, also stopped in their tracks.

What? None of these fellow disciples are leaving? Then what about them...?

Thinking of the two jars of seventh-grade pills Su Qing gave him, he realized that if he didn't stay by Su Qing's side, he might not get such benefits again.

After a while, the two decided that they wouldn't leave either!

Protector Jiang was dumbfounded.

"What? You're not planning to go back? Then what are you planning to do?" Protector Jiang asked.

"Break through the Gobi Desert and march into the Demon Realm," Su Qing said calmly.

Protector Jiang's mouth gaped open, his face filled with disbelief. Was this something a Core Formation cultivator would say?

Is this arrogance acceptable?

I know you're a genius, but you're not the most genius, okay? Xuan Qingye, another genius, is right in front of us.

Besides, what are you, a Core Formation stage cultivator, trying to act so high and mighty in front of a Nascent Soul stage cultivator?

"Protector Jiang, why don't we team up, storm the Demon Realm, and wipe out that Demon Lord?" Shui Qingchen said, raising an eyebrow.

Protector Jiang pursed his lips. He was killed by Shi Yan and Mo Qian. If it weren't for his innate skills, he would have really died.

These fellow disciples are actually arrogantly going to the Demon Realm to deal with the Demon Lord?

“We killed three elders of the Demon Realm, and they issued a kill order,” Su Qing said. “Now the Demon Realm elders are only at the Nascent Soul stage, and they are afraid of fire. The Demon Lord seems to have only been awake for a short time and is at his weakest. If we don’t take this opportunity to wipe out the Demon Realm, I’m afraid that if the Demon Race grows stronger in the future, it will become uncontrollable.”

Protector Jiang frowned. He looked at his fellow disciples. Their cultivation levels were all inferior to his, yet they were not afraid. What did he have to be afraid of? Besides, even if he couldn't win, he had his own innate skills.

Since we're not going to die anyway, let's give it a shot!

“In that case, let’s give it a try,” said Protector Jiang.

"Protector Jiang, please help me reforge these magical artifacts," Qiu Feiyang hurriedly said.

Protector Jiang: ...
