Chapter 436: Traveling Together

Just as Xiao Ze dealt with the black demon lightning, the golden cauldron below began to tremble. A dazzling glaze of light forcibly broke through the golden cauldron, transforming into a streak of light and flying toward the edge of the spatial barrier. The barrier was designed to keep things out but allowed free movement from within.

As the ninth-grade treasure pill broke through the spatial barrier, Xiao Ze's figure flashed like lightning, appearing in front of the pill.

"After all the effort put into refining you, I can't let you escape," Xiao Ze said, reaching out to grab the streak of light. The pill transformed into a massive glazed beast, roaring at Xiao Ze and spitting out a powerful energy beam.

Facing the intense energy beam, Xiao Ze didn't retreat. He shifted his grasp to a fist and punched forward. The beam shattered under his punch, dispersing into energy that spread in all directions. In an instant, trees within a radius of several miles were destroyed by the violent energy.

Xiao Ze's punch didn't lose momentum and landed directly on the glazed beast, smashing its form into countless fragments of glazed powder. A streak of light broke through the powder, flying backward. Xiao Ze's eyes lit up, and he pursued the streak of light.

In the next moment, the light transformed into a human figure, with skin as white as jade and hair cascading like a waterfall. The eyes, bright and pure like glaze, stared pitifully at Xiao Ze, appearing as an innocent girl with no knowledge of the world. Her beauty was comparable to Xun'er and the others.

However, Xiao Ze's eyes showed no hesitation. He struck out with his palm, strong spatial power sealing the surrounding area, giving the girl no escape. Seeing Xiao Ze's unwavering determination, the girl showed immense reluctance in her eyes, but she was quickly suppressed by Xiao Ze. She reverted into a dazzling glazed pill, radiating a divine glow.

Xiao Ze was well aware that ninth-grade pills could take on human forms and possess intelligence, so he wasn't swayed by its appearance.

Elder Tongxuan and the others approached Xiao Ze. Seeing Xiao Ze's swift actions, they hadn't intervened. Now, with everything settled, they all curiously eyed the ninth-grade pill in Xiao Ze's hand.

"This is a ninth-grade pill? It can transform into a human and has significant intelligence," they remarked in amazement. Xiao Ze used sealing techniques to store the pill in a container before handing it to Xun'er.

"Fortunately, the pill was successfully refined. Otherwise, with the rarity of the primary ingredients, it would have been impossible to gather them again in a short time," Xiao Ze said, exhaling in relief with a smile.

Xun'er carefully accepted the container, asking, "Xiao Ze, what does this pill do?"

"The Sacred Heart Glazed Pill enhances the divine spirit, forges a glazed body, and achieves unparalleled talent," Xiao Ze explained. Everyone gasped in awe, their eyes fixed on the pill.

Seeing their astonishment, Xiao Ze smiled and explained further, "Of course, the effect depends on the individual. Xun'er, with your already exceptional talent, the pill will help you reach even greater heights."

Even with Xiao Ze's explanation, Elder Tongxuan remained in shock. Achieving higher realms of cultivation required talent, resources, bloodline, and opportunities. Falling short in any area could result in a lifetime of stagnation. Although ancient Dou Emperor clans had significant bloodline advantages, the requirements for progress grew with higher cultivation levels.

Elder Tongxuan, possessing a strong Dou Emperor bloodline himself, knew he might only reach mid-stage Dou Saint without further opportunities. Xun'er, already highly regarded in the Gu Clan, was expected to achieve the same level as the clan leader—late-stage Nine Star Dou Saint. If the Sacred Heart Glazed Pill could further enhance her talent, then...

Elder Tongxuan suppressed his excitement, speaking earnestly to Xiao Ze. "Xiao Ze, this gift will greatly benefit the Gu Clan. It might even help cultivate a peak-level stronghold. If you need anything, just ask."

Addressing Xiao Ze with respect, Elder Tongxuan handed him a golden jade slip. "This is a spatial jade slip I made. If you encounter a formidable enemy, crush it, and I'll come to help."

Xiao Ze thanked him and accepted the jade slip. Although he was powerful, having Elder Tongxuan's assistance against mid-stage Dou Saints was reassuring.

Elder Tongxuan glanced at Xun'er and Xiao Ze, pondering before speaking. "The Gu Clan's territory is in the eastern region of Central Plains. Since Xun'er is returning to the clan, you can travel together. I won't join you young folks on this journey; I'll enjoy my freedom alone."

With a laugh, Elder Tongxuan nodded to Xiao Ze and Xun'er before disappearing.

"Thank you, Elder Tongxuan," Xiao Ze said, bowing toward the spot where the elder vanished. He then turned to Xun'er and the others, "Let's go. It should take about a month or two to reach the eastern region of Central Plains from here."

The women smiled, knowing that with their speed and the use of spatial passages, they could reach the eastern region in less than twenty days. Xiao Ze's estimate indicated they would be taking a leisurely, scenic route.

Xun'er stored the Sacred Heart Glazed Pill, ready to enjoy the time with Xiao Ze. Their next meeting would likely be when she reached Dou Saint or during her coming-of-age ceremony in the Gu Clan.

As Xiao Ze and his companions headed for the eastern region, a significant news spread from the southern region of Central Plains. A Dou Saint's relic had been discovered in the Ten Thousand Beast Mountain Range!

The news stirred up the entire Central Plains, with major factions sending people to seize the opportunities within the Dou Saint's relic. By the time Xiao Ze heard about the relic from a human city, more than half a month had passed. Hearing the details, the women couldn't help but smile knowingly.
