Xu Feng felt the ten Jade Talismans emitting a strong force of might within the Storage Bag and took them all out, returning the remaining Spirit Stones and Storage Bag to Rong Ling.
"I have accepted your kind intentions, but take the Spirit Stones back."
"Your sentiments are within these Jade Talismans, while mine are in these Spirit Pills."
Xu Feng was very fond of such Jade Talismans that could enhance combat power.
"How could I possibly accept this?"
Rong Ling pondered for a moment, then took out more than twenty Jade Talismans from the Storage Bag and handed them all to Xu Feng.
"Brother Rong, let’s exchange Communication Marks." Xu Feng took the initiative and brought out his Communication Treasure.
Seeing this, Rong Ling’s face lit up with joy, and he took out his own Communication Magic Artifact. The two touched their magic artifacts together, exchanging marks.
"Junior Brother Xu, our Sect’s cafeteria serves unparalleled dishes; today, I’ll treat you," Rong Ling spoke cheerfully. He had wanted to befriend an Alchemist for some time, and today he could finally fulfill this wish.
"Alright," Xu Feng nodded in agreement, not refusing.
In the evening, in a specially designated Alchemy Room within the small courtyard.
Xu Feng looked at the two broken Dao Artifacts in his hands, his eyes full of distress.
"The Earth Spirit Pearl is ruined, and repairing the Golden Scale Boat will require a master of Artifact Refining, not to mention how many Immortal Crystals it might cost."
At that moment, the chill within his soul made its presence known again, causing Xu Feng to shiver uncontrollably.
"First, I have to solve the issue with the chill poison; the rest can wait."
The assisting Puppet had already prepared all the Spiritual Medicines needed for this batch.
A sphere of Spiritual Fire ignited within the Pill Furnace, and looking at the fine-quality Treasure Pill Furnace in front of him, Xu Feng felt a bit awkward but still proceeded to refine Pills.
Half a month later, the solemn Hall Master had a somewhat peculiar look in his eyes as he examined the task Spirit Pills handed over by Xu Feng.
"Quick pace, high quality. If you’re interested, after you return to the Sacred Land, go have a look at the Myriad Medicine Hall."
Considering the high quality of the task Spirit Pills, the Hall Master specially awarded Xu Feng with an extra half of the points.
"Junior Brother Xu, I didn’t expect you to be so remarkable in the art of Alchemy! I am truly impressed," Rong Ling said from the side.
At this moment, the Outer Disciples in the great hall also looked at Xu Feng with a peculiar gaze.
Receiving praise from this Hall Master surely meant his achievements must have reached a very high Realm.
"Brother Rong is joking; the quality of your Jade Talismans is even higher."
Rong Ling accompanied Xu Feng to the Treasure Vault’s great hall to exchange for the Dan Recipe and Spiritual Medicines for the Soul Fire Pill.
Rong Ling, standing nearby, couldn’t help but feel somewhat reluctant looking at the Dan Recipe in Xu Feng’s hands.
"Brother Rong, once the Soul Fire Pill is refined, I will have to leave."
"It has been an honor to make your acquaintance here in the branch hall," Xu Feng said.
"Although it is difficult to part, there is no banquet in this world that doesn’t end. When you leave, just let me know, brother, and I’ll see you off," Rong Ling said, his voice tinged with reluctance.
Back in the courtyard, Xu Feng immediately began studying the Dan Recipe for the Soul Fire Pill.
In just three hours, a batch of Soul Fire Pills was successfully refined.
"Finally, no more shivering." As he spoke, a chill emerged within his soul, and Xu Feng shivered for one last time.
After swallowing three Soul Fire Pills, his entire Divine Soul seemed as if it would burst into flames.
The power of Sun Essence Fire contained in the Soul Fire Pill wandered throughout Xu Feng’s Divine Soul.
The soul burned fervently, lasting a full hour before subsiding.
Afterward, Xu Feng felt a wave of relief wash over his body, as refreshingly cathartic as recovering from a severe illness.
"Finally, I’m healed!" Xu Feng sighed in relief.
"Woo..." The Golden Armored Spirit Turtle in the Small World Pearl also cried out in joy.
"Let’s go, it’s time for you to consume today’s Spiritual Medicine."
Xu Feng said, bringing the Golden Armored Spirit Turtle into the Mountain and Sea Divine Beast World.
A three-thousand-year-old Golden Ginseng was swallowed whole by the Golden Armored Spirit Turtle, who then plunged into a branch of the Heaven-reaching River to wrestle with big fish.
Watching this, Xu Feng planned to go check out the Human Clan’s village before returning to prepare for his cultivation.
Just then, Xu Feng suddenly felt a vast power of soul flowing back into his soul.
The Golden Armored Spirit Turtle, fighting in a tributary of the Heaven-reaching River, rushed to the shore and let out a long roar to the sky.
A golden beam shot straight into the sky from the shell of the Golden Armored Spirit Turtle.
At this moment, Xu Feng was overwhelmed by the immense soul power.
By the time he regained his senses, the Golden Armored Spirit Turtle had already completed its advancement.
Originally the size of a three-story building, the Golden Armored Spirit Turtle was now the size of a basketball court.
Full of Runes that Xu Feng could not understand, the golden shell glittered in the sunlight of the Mountain and Sea Divine Beast World, looking incredibly mysterious.
In Xu Feng’s perception, there was an extraordinary inner core within the Golden Armored Spirit Turtle.
This inner core gave him the impression that it could contain and expand everything like the vast seas, and that it encapsulated the ultimate truths of the universe.
"Grumble~" A thunderous sound resonated.
Xu Feng looked and saw that it was the Xuan Turtle talking to the Golden Armored Spirit Turtle.
"Woo~" The Golden Armored Spirit Turtle respectfully nodded toward the Xuan Turtle.
Soon after, Xu Feng received a message from his ’son’, informing him that the Xuan Turtle had asked the Golden Armored Spirit Turtle to visit the Moving Mountain Giant Turtle.
Upon hearing this, Xu Feng was taken aback, then realizing what was happening, he thanked the Xuan Turtle and flew with his ’turtle son’ towards the direction of the Moving Mountain Giant Turtle.
Beneath a towering mountain range thousands of feet high, a huge turtle head emerged, gazing kindly at the Golden Armored Spirit Turtle that appeared as tiny as a sesame seed in his eyes.
Then it raised its head looking towards Xu Feng’s Divine Thought in the distance, its gaze filled with both disdain and a trace of helplessness.
From afar, Xu Feng watched the Moving Mountain Giant Turtle with great anticipation.
"I wonder what inheritance this Divine Turtle could provide to Xiao Jin."
Xu Feng found that ever since Xiao Jin started practicing the Breathing Technique in the Mountain and Sea Divine Beast World, it had begun to undergo a gradual transformation.
Whether it was inheriting Runes from the Xuan Turtle or consuming the shell of a Golden Crow egg, all these led to deeper changes. ƒreewebηoveℓ.com
For this, Xu Feng was delighted. Without the Mountain and Sea Divine Beast World, he might still be toiling away, earning Spirit Stones to nurture Xiao Jin.
While Xu Feng was lost in these thoughts, a giant golden thunderbolt suddenly split the sky, striking towards the Golden Armored Spirit Turtle.
In an instant, a tingling sensation came from the soul of the Golden Armored Spirit Turtle and then spread to Xu Feng’s Divine Soul.
Before Xu Feng could react, another golden thunderbolt struck the Golden Armored Spirit Turtle.
At this moment, Xu Feng could feel a twinge of pain from the soul of the Golden Armored Spirit Turtle, but more so a sense of fortitude.
Xu Feng, who intended to intervene, was stopped by the intent conveyed by the Golden Armored Spirit Turtle.
After the third thunderbolt struck, Xu Feng’s soul was completely numb.
His Divine Thought nearly failed to hold on and almost left the Mountain and Sea Divine Beast World.
Then, a gentle force carried the unconscious Golden Armored Spirit Turtle out.
"Thank you, senior, for passing down the inheritance to Xiao Jin," Xu Feng said respectfully before he started to check his ’turtle son’s’ condition.
After inspection, he found that besides being more than half smaller in size, the Spirit Turtle was in exceptional health in all other aspects.
Especially its body and soul, which were several times stronger than when it had just formed its inner core.
