Chapitre 438: Chapter 438: Farewell
Chapter 438: Farewell
Xiao Ze's gaze was sharp and focused. He had high expectations for Xun'er and the others. Their talents were exceptional. For ordinary people, learning a heaven-rank Dou technique might present a barrier, but for them, it likely wouldn't be an issue. If they could all master the Great Heaven Creation Palm, their combat effectiveness would increase significantly. After all, heaven-rank Dou techniques were valuable even at the Dou Saint stage. Giving them an additional powerful technique was a great advantage.
Xiao Ze opened the window and looked down from the hundred-meter-high restaurant. Tianhuang City was a sea of lights, especially in the area around the restaurant, where the brilliance of Dou Qi illuminated the sky, dimming the stars.
"Tianhuang City is one of the most prosperous cities in the eastern region of Zhongzhou. Although it's within the influence of the Huangquan Pavilion, it isn't directly governed by them," Xiao Ze thought to himself. "Remarkably, Tianhuang City thrives without the protection of any top force, managing to navigate the power struggles effortlessly. According to the ancient texts from the Alchemist Association, this might be due to some agreements among peak powerhouses."
Xiao Ze lowered his gaze, noting that they had already reached the eastern region of Zhongzhou, not far from the Ancient Clan's territory in the east. "Well, let's enjoy the eastern region for a bit. It's more prosperous than the southern region."
Just as Xiao Ze was contemplating this, he heard movement behind him. He turned to see Xun'er opening her eyes, her white jade-like hand faintly glowing with a dark golden hue. "Finished tempering?" Xiao Ze asked telepathically, careful not to disturb Xiao Yixian, Medusa, and Qing Lin, who were still tempering their hands.
Xun'er smiled and approached Xiao Ze, a faint golden barrier enveloping them. "Xiao Ze-gege, I've completed the tempering, but opening the small meridian branches will take some time." She showed her white hand to Xiao Ze.
Xiao Ze took her hand and examined it, causing Xun'er to blush. Despite their close relationship, she still felt shy about such intimate contact. After using his soul perception to check, Xiao Ze sighed, "It seems the Creation Saint was very thorough in passing down the Great Heaven Creation Palm. I had the benefit of the Saint's techniques to open my meridians, but you have to do it yourself."
"Haha, no need to rush. After tempering with the Golden Spirit Dew, opening the meridians will be easier. Just make sure to complete it before practicing the technique. Otherwise, the energy could accumulate in your hand and cause severe injury," Xiao Ze advised.
Xun'er nodded and said, "Xiao Ze-gege, let's travel together to the eastern region. Once we enter, we'll be in the Ancient Clan's territory, and they have a strong presence there."
"I understand. But the Elder did say we could take our time. We're in a prosperous area; let's enjoy it for a bit," Xiao Ze replied. Xun'er smiled and hugged his arm, looking out the window. The golden barrier around them quietly disappeared as they stood together, gazing outside.
After a while, Medusa, Xiao Yixian, and Qing Lin finished their tempering as well, though they still needed to open their hand meridians. They spent their time in Tianhuang City tasting various local delicacies and exploring the city. When they grew tired of one city, they moved on to another.
Three months after Xiao Ze had refined the Sacred Heart Glazed Pill, Elder Tongxuan appeared before them with a helpless look. Seeing Xun'er happily eating a sugar-coated hawthorn, he sighed, "Xun'er, it's been three months. It's time to return to the Ancient Clan."
Everyone felt a pang of sadness and reluctance at the Elder's words. Xun'er finished her last bite of the hawthorn and addressed them, "I'm grateful for the time we spent together. But all good things must come to an end. We'll meet again."
She smiled and hugged Xiao Ze, who gently patted her back. "Take the Sacred Heart Glazed Pill as soon as you can. Though you're unlikely to face any theft due to your status, it's better to avoid any risks," he whispered.
Xun'er nodded, a slight nasal sound indicating her agreement. After bidding farewell to everyone, Xun'er left with Elder Tongxuan, disappearing into the bustling street without anyone noticing. If a powerful soul cultivator had seen Xiao Ze's group, they would have been astonished to find them cloaked in a faint soul force, making them invisible in the crowd. Otherwise, with their stunning appearances, they would have drawn attention everywhere they went.
Xun'er's departure left the group in a somber mood. "Xiao Ze, what's next?" Xiao Yixian asked.
"Let's continue our journey. You all spend so much time training with me; now's the time to enjoy ourselves," Xiao Ze replied. It wouldn't be right to immediately return to rigorous training after Xun'er left; they should all have fun together. Besides, his instructions to Xun'er were part of his plan to prepare for breaking through to Dou Saint.
Reaching the peak of nine-turn Dou Zun, he was just one step away from half-saint. Many talents reached this stage, but few succeeded in breaking through. Xiao Ze wanted Xun'er to take the Sacred Heart Glazed Pill to help him in his breakthrough. The pill's tenfold energy feedback would be a significant aid.
As they explored the eastern region, Xiao Ze didn't just focus on leisure. Besides their daily training, he also searched for signs of the Soul Clan's Spirit Devouring Absolute Death Array. If he found any, he planned to disrupt their operations, saving many innocent lives and cultivators.
