A few minutes later, the door to the Great Elder Ding Shan's stone house suddenly opened, and a burly figure walked out. He was surrounded by boundless heat waves, causing the people around him to hurriedly avoid him.
The Great Elder walked out of the stone house. It had only been half a day, but to him, it felt like dozens of years. At that moment, he stood tall and straight, like a mountain. The black hair on his temples had disappeared, and his slightly tired face had become rosy and glowing. He looked even more composed, and he exuded a dignified aura without being angry.
Because he had just broken through, he was still unable to circulate the Battle Qi in his body freely. At this moment, a majestic and powerful aura radiated from him. His body seemed to be emitting hot lava, and people could feel the heat waves even from a hundred feet away.
"Greetings, Chief!"
After walking out of the courtyard, Tie Wen's figure flashed a few times, and he arrived in front of Xiao Chen and bowed.
Looking at the Great Elder who seemed to have come back to life, Xiao Chen could not help but feel gratified. He gently helped Tie Wen up and said, "Congratulations, Great Elder, on your great progress in cultivation and breaking through to the Blood Refining Realm!"
Not only that, but the surrounding clansmen also came forward and congratulated in unison, "Congratulations, Great Elder, on your great progress in cultivation and breaking through to the Blood Refining Realm!"
"If it wasn't for the Chief's help, this old man might not even be able to break through to the Blood Refining Realm in this lifetime."
"Great Elder, your contributions to our Gu Yuan Tribe cannot go unnoticed. There is no need to congratulate me!" Yang Kai lightly waved his hand to stop the Great Elder from bowing again.
Following that, Xiao Chen spoke again, "Everyone, don't just be happy. You have just broken through to the Blood Refining Realm, so stabilizing your cultivation is the most important thing. I still have to go to the Third Elder's residence to take a look."
The Third Elder, Xiao Chen, was the oldest of the people who had received pills from Xiao Chen. As an elder who was related to Xiao Chen by blood, after Xiao Chen promoted him from a mere steward to the Third Elder, he had been very conscientious and loyal to Xiao Chen. This was also the reason why Xiao Chen was so willing to provide him with pills for cultivation.
Just as Xiao Chen had expected, Xiao Qin's current situation was not optimistic. As a blood relative of Xiao Chen and a direct relative, he was trusted by Xiao Chen. Even though he was old, Xiao Chen was still generous in giving him cultivation resources for cultivation. To Xiao Chen, loyalty was far more important than talent. What he needed were people who supported him in ruling the tribe.
Xiao Chen's footsteps were very fast. With a few flashes, he had already disappeared around the corner at the end of the street. Not long after, he appeared outside the Third Elder's stone house. Looking at the tightly shut door, Xiao Chen cursed inwardly.
Ever since the Third Elder had returned to the stone house from the stone tower and sent his family away, he had consumed the Meridian Unblocking Pill without any hesitation. What kind of scene was this? It was like a bolt from the blue. The powerful medicinal effects directly tore his body apart. Even though he had tried his best to control the flow of air, he was unable to do so. The vast medicinal effects were like wild horses that had broken free of their reins, galloping and roaring through his body.
His body was torn apart, numb and numb. At this moment, his entire body had even swelled up. With the Third Elder's body, he was unable to devour the medicinal effects at all. The medicinal essence of the Meridian Unblocking Pill was so great that he was like a small boat in the middle of the ocean, constantly being swallowed up by the monstrous waves. At this moment, he even felt like his body was about to explode and die.
Not having the time to greet the Third Elder's family, Xiao Chen's figure instantly charged out of the stone house. He could feel Xiao Qin's life force constantly weakening.
After entering the stone house, the Third Elder's figure was reflected in Xiao Chen's eyes. At this moment, the Third Elder was in an extremely sorry state. He had collapsed on the stone bed, and his entire body had changed. Xiao Chen could feel countless streams of air raging in his body. Without caring about anything else, Xiao Chen immediately acted, wanting to suppress the turbulence in his body.
Xiao Chen's green Battle Qi was like a ferocious dragon crossing the river, endlessly entering the Third Elder's body. The originally raging medicinal effects seemed to have met a great enemy and were instantly subdued. The green Qi continuously drove the Third Elder's limbs and bones together, and the trickling streams gradually converged into a large river.
"What are you waiting for if you still don't break through?!"
Xiao Chen's words were like thunder from the heavens, giving Xiao Qin a feeling of enlightenment. His entire body instantly trembled. Luckily, Xiao Chen did not withdraw his green Battle Qi. Instead, he fused it with the medicinal effects and guided it to continuously attack the meridian barrier.
The Third Elder's foundation was just too weak. Even though he now had Xiao Chen's generous support, the loss of vital energy in the early years was not so easy to make up for. The path of the martial path was filled with countless dangers, and there was no room for the slightest flaw. Without a strong foundation, one would definitely not be able to walk far on this path.
With Xiao Chen's help, the Third Elder's breakthrough, which had originally been filled with danger, became much easier. However, Xiao Chen knew that if he did not have any fortuitous encounters, the early Blood Refining realm would most likely be the Third Elder's final destination on the martial path. The path of the martial path did not allow for any tricks.
Boom!
The first meridian was finally pierced through, and in the blink of an eye, the medicinal effects surged into the meridian, gradually turning into Battle Qi that began to nourish the meridians in his body. His originally old face gradually smoothed out.
After a long while, the Third Elder opened his eyes. Looking at Xiao Chen, who was looking at him with a smile that was not a smile, he hurriedly tried to get off the stone bed.
Gently lowering his arm to stop the Third Elder from getting up, Xiao Chen said with a smile, "Congratulations on breaking through to the Blood Refining realm, Third Elder. Your lifespan is over a hundred years!"
"It's all thanks to Chief Enti. This old man was blinded by greed. If it wasn't for Chief Enti arriving in time, this old bag of bones of mine would have long ago gone berserk and exploded." Hearing Xiao Chen's words, Xiao Qin could not help but bitterly smile.
He had been too eager for quick success. His foundation was already shallow, and after receiving the Meridian Unblocking Pill from Xiao Chen, he had been blinded by the desire to break through to the Blood Refining realm. He had wanted to break through to the Blood Refining realm in one go and snatch another few dozen years of his lifespan from the heavens. He had not expected that he would have nearly exploded. If it wasn't for Xiao Chen, he might have already exploded.
"Why do you say that, Third Elder? The various affairs of the Gu Yuan Tribe cannot be separated from you, not to mention that I do not trust you to leave the tribe's affairs to others. In the future, we will still need you to take care of the tribe's important matters."
"This is all thanks to Chief Enti's trust. This old man does not deserve it!"
As an Elder, Xiao Qin had a deep understanding of Xiao Chen's sloppy attitude towards the tribe's affairs. However, in his eyes, this was not a big deal. As the chief and the strongest person in the tribe, Xiao Chen had more important things to do, such as facing various dangers outside the tribe. Only when Xiao Chen became stronger could the Gu Yuan Tribe become safer. Some matters in the tribe should not take up too much of Xiao Chen's cultivation time.
