Chapter 637: Battle, Top-quality Gengjing

"Why are you in such a hurry? I said this drop of Taiyin water is yours, so it is naturally yours."

Chen Xuan smiled faintly, snapped his fingers, and threw the Taiyin True Water directly to the Ice and Fire Dragon.

"Roar!"

The Ice and Fire Dragon let out a joyful dragon roar.

He opened his mouth and quickly swallowed the Taiyin True Water into his stomach.

In an instant, a terrifying icy cold air suddenly emanated from the Ice and Fire Dragon.

Chen Xuan was so cold that he kept shivering.

Even the huge body of the Ice and Fire Dragon seemed unable to withstand the icy cold air emitted by the Taiyin True Water.

Soon, a thick layer of frost appeared all over the body.

The Ice and Fire Dragon itself also looked drowsy at this moment.

"This……"

Chen Xuan's expression changed slightly.

His divine sense fell on the Ice and Fire Dragon, carefully examining the changes within its body.

After confirming that the Ice and Fire Dragon had swallowed the Taiyin True Water and had temporarily entered a coma simply because it could not withstand the overly strong coldness in the Taiyin True Water, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Taiyin True Water is a natural treasure that is extremely rare in the world. Since the Ice and Fire Dragon has a great opportunity this time, if it can hold on to it, it must be a great opportunity."

Chen Xuan muttered softly.

With a wave of his hand, he threw the Ice and Fire Dragon directly into the water-attributed mud space on the third floor of the Beast Taming Tower, allowing it to seize the time to practice.

After finishing all these, Chen Xuan finally had some free time.

But he still didn't enter the state of cultivation.

Taking this opportunity, he carefully recalled his battle with the Black-backed Demon Ape and Shui Yiren.

"The Black-backed Demon Ape and the Demon Ape Venerable have teamed up to perform the secret technique of Heavenly Demon Fusion. Their combat power is much stronger than that of ordinary late Jindan Great Perfection experts."

"Even if I fight against an early Nascent Soul cultivator, I won't necessarily be at a disadvantage."

"But I killed the Demon Ape Venerable. In addition to the fact that the Demon Ape Venerable underestimated the enemy, the attack of the spiritual consciousness thorn also allowed me to seize the initiative in the battle."

"Plus, Senior Sister Jindie blocked Shui Yiren's attack for me, which allowed me to kill Demon Ape Venerable in one fell swoop."

"If the Demon Ape Venerable and I go all out, I can kill the Demon Ape Venerable, but I will also pay a huge price."

"With my current cultivation, it's easy for me to deal with ordinary late Jindan great perfection masters. But if I encounter those gifted late Jindan great perfection masters, it will still be very difficult."

When Chen Xuan thought of this, he couldn't help but frown.

He seemed to be increasingly eager to improve his realm.

"If I could enter the Nascent Soul stage, it would be easy for me to deal with a strong man like Demon Dragon Venerable. Unfortunately... since I failed to transcend the tribulation last time, I don't even have the chance to break through to the Nascent Soul stage now."

Chen Xuan sighed and continued to summarize his combat experience.

"Shui Yiren is a half-step Nascent Soul expert on the Cangwu grassland. Her fighting power is actually not much different from that of an early Nascent Soul expert."

"But she also died in the hands of me and Senior Sister Jindie. During this period, in addition to Shui Yiren's high self-esteem, the attack of the spiritual consciousness thorn and my continuous cultivation of the ancient swords to enhance their power over the years also had a great impact."

"Although I won this time, it doesn't mean I will always win in the future."

"In the world of immortal cultivators, there are many strong people. If I don't keep a low profile, I will sooner or later follow in Shui Yiren's footsteps."

After Chen Xuan reminded himself, he continued to summarize his combat experience.

After two or three days of waiting in the Beast Taming Tower, Chen Xuan finally summarized his combat experience during this period.

Only at this moment did he officially start practicing.

Now, Chen Xuan's cultivation has reached the great perfection of the late Jindan stage.

Continuing to meditate and practice actually has little meaning for him.

Taking this opportunity, Chen Xuan took out a bottle of mutant dragon's blood essence and activated the second level of True Dragon Transformation, the Jiaomang Transformation, and hurried to practice.

As for the ancient soul refining technique, Chen Xuan did not miss it either.

While he still had a lot of spirit-refining pills in his hands, Chen Xuan took some time to practice for a while, trying to make his spiritual power even stronger.

In addition to the normal training time, Chen Xuan also arranged time to cultivate the Ancient Dragon Sword, familiarize himself with the Tianyang Fiery Shield, etc.

Every day, Chen Xuan's time is fully scheduled.

Every day, Chen Xuan spends his time in tireless practice.

This has allowed his strength to gradually improve.

In a blink of an eye, Chen Xuan had stayed in the Beast Taming Tower for another year.

On this day, Chen Xuan, who was meditating and practicing, didn't know what he noticed.

Suddenly, his figure flashed and quickly disappeared in the space of the Beast Taming Tower.

When he appeared again, he was already outside the courtyard.

When Chen Xuan saw the stunningly beautiful figure standing quietly outside the courtyard, he was so happy that he couldn't express it in words.

"Mei'er, you're here?"

Chen Xuan looked overjoyed and rushed towards Wu Zhaomei.

Wu Zhaomei saw this but did not dodge.

After giving Chen Xuan a hug, she smiled and said, "My husband, I could have come earlier. Unfortunately, there are too many things going on in Miaoyin Sect recently. I was embarrassed to let Senior Sister Cuiping handle it alone. So, I didn't come to see you until now. You won't blame me, right?"

"Mei'er, what are you saying? Although we are a dual cultivation partner, we must also understand the ways of the world. I'm very happy that you can come." Chen Xuan said with a smile.

Chen Xuan's thoughtfulness made Wu Zhaomei look very happy.

Soon, the two of them happily came to Chen Xuan's courtyard.

hum!

Chen Xuan waved his hand, and the protective formation in the courtyard was quickly activated.

Soon, a whimpering sound was heard from the room where Chen Xuan lived.

The next morning, when Chen Xuan woke up, he found that Wu Zhaomei had already woken up.

Today, Wu Zhaomei was wearing a light pink palace dress, with her long black hair casually gathered behind her head.

There is a touch of laziness in the charm.

It makes her perfect figure and stunning face even more attractive.

"Mei'er!"

Chen Xuan called out softly.

Wu Zhaomei seemed to understand what Chen Xuan meant, and her pretty face suddenly turned slightly red.

"My dear, although we are a couple, you still haven't advanced to the Nascent Soul stage. This kind of physical intimacy still needs to stop."

"Also, I came here this time to bring you good news."

Wu Zhaomei smiled sweetly.

As he spoke, he handed a palm-sized token to Chen Xuan.

The token is antique, with the word "medicine" engraved on the front.

On the back, there is a huge word "Ling" carved.

Chen Xuan looked at it for a long time but still couldn't figure out what the token was used for.

"Mei'er, this is..." Chen Xuan asked puzzledly.

"Husband, this is the reward for you killing Master Hulan last time. Fellow Daoist Yao from the Divine Medicine Valley agreed to it personally. As long as this battle is over, you can go to the Divine Medicine Valley at any time and use the Divine Medicine Valley's top-quality spirit gathering pool to practice for a month." Wu Zhaomei said with a smile.

Chen Xuan's eyes lit up.

The best spirit gathering pool!

This is no ordinary thing.

For a cultivator like him who is eager to break through to the Nascent Soul stage, it is of great benefit.

"If I can reach the Nascent Soul stage in the ultimate spirit pool, my success rate will increase by at least 20%."

"Add to that other rare treasures I collected myself that can help me reach the Nascent Soul stage. My success rate in reaching the Nascent Soul stage can reach an astonishing 80%."

“This… is really great!”

Chen Xuan was extremely excited.

But he also knew that Wu Zhaomei personally delivered the token, which also meant that Wu Zhaomei had put in a lot of effort during this period.

"Mei'er, you..."

Without waiting for Chen Xuan to finish his words, Wu Zhaomei's rosy lips instantly kissed Chen Xuan.

After a long while, Wu Zhaomei finally let go of Chen Xuan and said with a smile: "Husband, do we need to thank each other? Besides, it is only natural for me to help my husband."

Chen Xuan smiled and nodded seriously.

There was no conversation for a while. One day later, when Wu Zhaomei was about to leave the courtyard where Chen Xuan lived, several figures rushed towards the courtyard where Chen Xuan was staying.

This made Wu Zhaomei feel a little embarrassed.

"Husband, I..."

Chen Xuan released his divine sense, glanced at the newcomers, and immediately said with a smile: "It's okay, they are just fellow disciples of the Yuling Sect. Besides, Mei'er, you know them. Why not let everyone meet them?"

"In this case, everything is up to my husband!"

Wu Zhaomei nodded and agreed with Chen Xuan's opinion.

Soon, several figures appeared outside Chen Xuan's courtyard.

Chen Xuan and Wu Zhaomei went out together to greet them.

"Meet Uncle Zimang, and all the brothers and sisters."

Chen Xuan respectfully saluted to True Man Zimang, Fairy Jindie and others.

However, when everyone saw Wu Zhaomei beside Chen Xuan, they all smiled but said nothing.

It was a good opportunity, or the Golden Butterfly Fairy smiled and said, "Junior Brother, it seems that we have come at the wrong time. How about we come back another day?"

"Ahem, senior sister, stop joking. Fairy Wu and you, senior sister, are old friends. We have finally met each other, so there is naturally no need to be shy." Chen Xuan coughed lightly and explained.

When Wu Zhaomei heard this, her pretty face turned slightly red, but she did not object.

Seeing this, everyone looked at Chen Xuan with awe.

After chatting for a while, everyone entered Chen Xuan's courtyard at the invitation of Chen Xuan and Wu Zhaomei.

After everyone was seated and Chen Xuan personally served the spiritual wine to everyone, True Man Zimang spoke.

"Junior brother, the reason I came here this time is actually...actually, it's a little hard to talk about."

Before Master Zimang explained his purpose, he could only smile bitterly.

The Golden Butterfly Fairy, the Blue Butterfly Fairy, the Fire Crow Fairy, and the Golden Bull Fairy who came with him also looked a little embarrassed.

This scene made Chen Xuan quite curious.

"Uncle-master, what exactly happened? Why is it so difficult for you and your fellow brothers and sisters?" Chen Xuan said.

"Ahem, not long ago, our Qiguo City received a challenge letter from Master Hulan. They asked our Linhezhou cultivators to send out ten Jindan-stage masters to fight a life-and-death duel in the form of a ring match."

"As for the list of the ten Jindan-stage masters who will participate in the battle, naturally, each of the seven major immortal cultivator sects in Linhe Province will send one person. As for the other three, we will look for them among the independent cultivators."

"This matter concerns the morale of the cultivators in Linhe Province, so the three Yuanying-stage masters asked you, Junior Brother, to represent our Yuling Sect and participate in the competition. You see..."

When Chen Xuan heard this, he suddenly felt a headache.

"This……"

After thinking seriously for a long time, Chen Xuan suddenly said, "Since the three seniors have been asking for this, I naturally cannot refuse. However, since this matter concerns the reputation and morale of the immortal cultivation community in Linhezhou, do you think I should work for nothing?"

Hearing Chen Xuan say this, Master Zimang instantly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Haha, don't worry, Junior Brother. Daoist Fellow Yao and the other two were afraid that you would disagree, so they specially asked me to bring this thing to you. Take a look first."

As Master Zimang spoke, he handed a fist-sized piece of purple-gold spiritual ore to Chen Xuan.

Chen Xuan's eyes swept over the purple-gold spiritual ore and he was immediately surprised.

"Is this... the best Geng essence?"
