Chapter 541 Zhong Cai's Plans
During these three months, all the cultivators who came here to fight and survived have gained a lot of benefits. Many of the resources they exchanged after the battle were used up during this period. They could ask the experts of the War God Hall and the alchemists of the Spirit Immortal Sect for answers to any questions they had. For many cultivators, it was a very rewarding experience, and they were so happy that they didn't want to leave.
Even among the disciples of the War God Temple and the Spirit Immortal Sect, not everyone had a master, nor did everyone know the powerful figures in either of the two forces. Therefore, they did not have the honor of being able to consult them from time to time within their respective forces.
What's slightly better than many other forces is that both forces can purchase and watch high-level videos on the Danwu Sky Screen. However, those videos cost a considerable amount of points, and the benefits of simply watching videos are quite different from those of seeking private advice.
Therefore, this "three months" is also a very rare opportunity for the disciples of both factions.
Among the disciples of both factions, many made breakthroughs during this period.
Despite losing many disciples in the battle between good and evil, the Temple of War has actually strengthened its overall power after a period of digestion.
After recruiting disciples a few more times, the number of disciples will increase, and the overall strength will be strengthened again.
The alchemists of the Lingxian Sect were well protected and did not go to the battlefield. They were busy with alchemy for more than a year, and with countless patients trying it, all the alchemists' skills improved.
There were also many alchemists who were originally very talented. Their alchemy skills were not outstanding in the early stages simply because they lacked experience. After this training, their progress was even more remarkable. Some alchemists who were stuck at a bottleneck even jumped to become alchemists of a higher level. The number of alchemists who could cross levels also increased significantly.
Most encouragingly, there's been an increase in advanced features.
For example, several veteran level 7 alchemists have advanced to level 8.
Many more level six alchemists found an opportunity, and after a flash of inspiration, became level seven alchemists.
The many level-eight alchemists and alchemy emperors who were in charge of explaining the process naturally noticed this point—and quite a few of them even became advanced alchemists on the spot under their guidance!
Countless cultivators were overjoyed.
With this joy, the grief of losing relatives and comrades on the battlefield gradually dissipated.
Of course, not everyone was in high spirits.
The alchemists participate in the battle not only because many want to hone their skills, but also because some want to provide support for their romantic partners, lovers, or Daoist companions, giving them a stable rear.
Naturally, some alchemists lost the people they loved...
Many alchemists suffer greatly, and some even stagnate in their alchemy skills because of it. Some even become delirious and die as a result. Their fellow disciples always keep an eye on them, preventing them from dying unexpectedly in pain, and even more so, preventing those who commit suicide for love.
Despite all the precautions taken, many alchemists fell into despair, but only a handful died.
All we can do now is wait for them to come to their senses and recover their spirits in the future.

Zhong Cai sat down next to Sang Yunchu and listened to his master's words. He replied, "Then I won't go into seclusion. I'll also inform the patients and let them train on their own from now on."
Sang Yunchu hadn't been there for a long time due to treatment, so she didn't quite understand what he was saying.
"Training?" Sang Yunchu asked with a smile, "Training what?"
Zhong Cai said with a grin, "It's all about enduring the pain during training."
Then, he recounted everything about the souls he had awakened wanting to rebuild their cultivation.
Sang Yunchu was surprised. He quickly finished inserting the remaining needles before saying, "It's not easy to separate the primordial soul back into three souls and seven spirits. Cai'er, are you really confident?"
Zhong Cai nodded.
Sang Yunchu actually knew that his disciple had some little secrets, but he had never investigated them thoroughly.
Seeing his disciple's reaction, he decided not to ask any more questions.
Zhong Cai, on the other hand, had actually made some plans in his mind, but since his husband, Lao Wu, wasn't around, they hadn't discussed it yet.
Of course, he also knew that Lao Wu would definitely not object.
·
Zhong Cai's plan was to open the ancient city's cultivation room to their two masters.
Since the cannons in the ancient city can be temporarily controlled by Sect Master Ji Zhan, it is certainly possible to do so in other places as well.
The ancient city has various simulation rooms, and the alchemy simulation room is just one of them.
There are also simulations of secret techniques, simulations of self-created secret techniques, simulations of lightning tribulations... all sorts of things that are useful to their cultivation and related to their cultivation, it can be said that there is everything.
These were very useful to him and Lao Wu, and equally useful to their two masters.
The masters are actually making good progress, but for the Zhong-Wu couple who have the skills, the day they catch up is probably not far off.
Zhong Cai felt that the masters should also benefit from the ancient city.
If the masters progress faster, their lineage can achieve a higher status!
Zhong Cai also considered whether she should mention it to Sect Leader Ji and Hall Master Pei.
But it's best to postpone this for now.
Those two are incredibly powerful figures, both over ten thousand years old. They've seen countless treasures and possess countless hidden skills.
Their true strength is something he can't fully grasp right now.
I'll discuss it with Lao Wu later.
After the ancient city is opened to the masters, we will discuss it with them.
And that brat Wu Dongxiao, I wonder what he's gotten into now. We'll see if he gets enough of his lucky encounters. If not, we'll consider opening up a couple more for him.

Many thoughts raced through Zhong Cai's mind, but she didn't show them on her face.
His eyes moved slightly, and the smile on his face was no different from usual.
Hmph! He's quite scheming now!
Zhong Cai brought up the topic of splitting the Yuan Soul again and took out several kinds of medicinal liquids that she had made.
Sang Yunchu took it with great interest and gently turned the transparent bottle.
As the bottle spun, the liquid inside formed a chaotic and bizarre array of colors, with smoke and bubbles rising from it, creating an exceptionally irritating effect on the eyes.
As Sang Yunchu watched, she couldn't help but laugh.
Zhong Cai coughed lightly: "Master, don't laugh. Look at my skill level."
Sang Yunchu suppressed a laugh, but couldn't help saying, "This is the first time in all my years that I've seen such unique colors."
Zhong Cai couldn't help but laugh.
Actually, he didn't realize it when he was doing the research, but who knew that after he finished the research and came up with the results, he would get such a color?
He was totally confused himself!
But he quickly reverted to his morbid sense of humor.
Sang Yunchu rubbed Zhong Cai's head, his expression turned serious, and took out some containers from the side, then put some of the medicinal liquid into the containers.
He also began to study the ingredients, effects, and so on of these medicinal solutions.
As an eighth-level Pill King, one should be able to discern a great deal about a seventh-level medicinal liquid very quickly.
However, Sang Yunchu was unable to quickly understand the medicinal liquid that Zhong Cai had prepared.
Sang Yunchu couldn't help but praise, "Cai'er's methods are becoming more and more sophisticated."
Zhong Cai said happily, "That's not enough. Sooner or later, I'll make sure my master can't tell at all!"
Sang Yunchu raised her delicate eyebrows and quickly discerned some of the tricks Zhong Cai had used in the preparation of the medicinal liquid.
·
There were quite a few patients in the room, as well as their accompanying family members. However, they all kept a very low profile and did not interrupt when Sang Yunchu and Zhong Cai, the master and apprentice, were talking.
Of course, they were all listening to the master and apprentice.
As they listened, the cultivators couldn't help but feel a profound sense of awe.
Some of those who were more familiar with each other also secretly communicated with each other.
That Zhong Danwang really dares to do anything!
[I've never heard of anyone splitting up their Yuan Soul before?]
[Yes! It actually requires splitting into three souls and seven spirits! Our primordial souls are all condensed and fused! These few steps alone are difficult enough, and now we have to split them back up... How... how do we split them?]
[I can't figure it out either, but he's a top-tier seventh-level alchemist. We can't guess, but he seems quite confident.]
Such people are rare. Emperor Sangdan is already quite capable and young, yet this disciple he took on has surpassed him, and his words are always rather intimidating.
[Exactly! Even Emperor Sangdan was stunned!]
That painful medicine is quite terrifying.
[The pain of being separated from my soul... I've already achieved nirvana, I wouldn't want to be separated in this life if I could avoid it! But I still have to endure it every day!]
[Terrible! Absolutely terrible!]
I actually think this thing is quite useful for cultivation. What do you think about using it on my disciple...?
"...Your apprentice is quite unlucky then."
"Don't talk about that! We have to seize this opportunity! I think King Zhong will definitely hang the medicinal liquid on the sky screen later, so we can buy more then. If our two disciples have this, at least they can try to experience soul division in advance, and avoid making mistakes when they divide their souls themselves..."
That makes a lot of sense...
·
Zhong Cai and Sang Yunchu chatted about alchemy for a while before Zhong Cai returned home.
Time flew by, and two days later, the warships that remained outside the Red Mist Mountain Range began to take action.
The alchemists could still stay in their respective rooms to treat patients, but all other cultivators, whether in their cultivation rooms or asking questions, were notified that everything would be shut down in an hour and they were to prepare quickly.
Suddenly, everyone was busy.
Zhong Cai also told several patients to pack up any luggage their companions had.
Fang Xiao, Pang Feihong, and the others did indeed have some things to pack, so they quickly got busy.
The spirits obediently continued their excruciating training.
To be honest, they were in so much pain that they were numb, and all they could think about was how to get through it... they couldn't think about anything else.
·
After the warship began heading towards the western river region, Zhong Cai entrusted the Yuan Souls to the care of those cultivators and, unusually, came out himself to stand on the deck.
He looked ahead, then glanced in another direction and sighed.
Old Wu, I wonder how things are going on his end?
Otherwise, go back and ask others who know the news...
If he were within either of the two factions, he would check out the Sky Curtain Forum.
There might be news.
Zhong Cai had lost count of how many times she had thought of Wu Shaogan.
He continued to sigh.
How could it take so long...?
·
On the battlefield of the Sun-Covering Mountains.
It remains a battlefield fragmented into countless pieces, where cultivators from both the righteous and evil paths continue to fight each other.
