It was an absolutely amazing feat for a Blood Refining Realm cultivator to defeat a Demon Lord. The difference between the Blood Refining Realm and Demon Lord Realm was a whole realm. It was also a difference in the level of a warrior's life. However, cultivating the Purple Gold Battle Body could make up for this difference. This was enough to show how powerful the Purple Gold Battle Body was.
Moreover, since the destruction of the Purple Gold King Tribe tens of thousands of years ago, compared to the Battle Qi Cultivation Realm, the Body Refining Realm had consumed a lot of energy. Compared to the Battle Qi Cultivation Realm, the Purple Gold Battle Body was much more difficult. As a result, very few people focused on the Body Refining Realm.
As a result, even though the Supreme Purple Gold King Tribe had been destroyed, the Purple Gold Battle Physique that was passed down from generation to generation was rarely practiced by people. Moreover, the number of people who managed to practice it to a high level was even fewer.
The battle body secret method that Xiao Chen gave to Xiong Sheng contained all kinds of insights and things to pay attention to when cultivating the battle body. In other words, Xiong Sheng could avoid a lot of detours. From this, it could be seen the importance of heritage. The tribe had thousands of years of inheritance. The tribe's ancient books had already been cultivated by generations of people. They had already gradually evolved into the most suitable state for warriors to cultivate. The later generations only needed to follow the prescribed order, which saved them a lot of time to explore.
"Well, Wei Yunwei, Crane and Ziyuan are the disciples that I have accepted before you!"
After Xiong Qi stood at the side, Xiao Chen swept his gaze over the disciples he had just accepted. He said softly, "Master, please sit down. I have accepted a total of nine disciples. I hope that you will protect and respect each other in the future."
"Yes!"
Immediately, all the disciples bowed and answered.
"Among the nine of you, except for Ziyuan, who is too young and deserves to be the youngest junior sister, you have to be modest to her in the future. As for the rest of you, regardless of strength, we will only look at your age."
Soon, the disciples had been ranked according to their seniority. Tian Fang was the well-deserved eldest senior brother, followed by Wei Yunwei as the second senior sister, Jian Jinghong as the third junior brother, Xiong Sheng and Huang Xiaotian as the fourth and fifth junior brother respectively, Bu Canghai as the sixth junior brother, Long Tian and Kunpeng as the seventh and eighth junior brother respectively, and finally, Ziyuan as the youngest junior sister.
"Greetings, Master and Mistresses!"
After a quarter of an hour, the nine disciples stood side by side. Even the youngest disciple, Ziyuan, was also doing the same. She knelt on the ground with her eight senior brothers and sisters and paid their respects to Xiao Chen and Mu Qing and Pinghua. Mu Qing and Pinghua sat on either side of Xiao Chen and accepted the greetings of the disciples.
"Alright, dispense with the formalities!"
Xiao Chen looked at the nine disciples in front of him, and he was also very satisfied in his heart. The aptitudes of these nine disciples were extraordinary, and each had their own merits. As long as they were nurtured, their achievements in the future would definitely not be any worse than his. At their age, Xiao Chen's strength was not even comparable to the disciples in front of him.
"Although you are my personal disciples, you will be no different from anyone else in the War God Palace. Of course, as my personal disciples, you will naturally have advantages that other martial artists do not have."
"Now, I have two Peak Earth Rank Cultivation Techniques in my hands. If I cultivate them to the Great Accomplishment State, they will be able to advance to the Heaven Rank. One is called the Heavenly Python Skill, which was created by the ancestors of my Human Race after observing the great ferocious Purple-Winged Heaven-Swallowing Python of the Wilderness. If I cultivate it to the Great Accomplishment State, I will turn into a Heavenly Python and even have the opportunity to evolve into a Divine Dragon."
"As for the other one, you already know that it is the Battling Heaven Scripture bestowed by the Ancestral Court. If I cultivate it to the Great Accomplishment State, it can also be ranked as a Heaven Rank Cultivation Technique."
"As for the others, my Gu Yuan Tribe has dozens of Upper Earth Rank Cultivation Techniques, all of which are the best. You can choose freely!"
Xiao Chen would naturally not be stingy with his own disciples. Personal disciples and Masters could be said to share weal and woe. Compared to other martial artists who could only choose Cultivation Techniques below Upper Earth Rank, they could naturally choose the top Cultivation Techniques in Xiao Chen's hands.
Of course, the Cultivation Techniques he chose were also the Bone Tempering Realm and the Blood Refining Realm. As for the latter Cultivation Techniques, they would only be obtained when they advanced to the corresponding realm.
This was also a common method used by the tribes in the wilderness. In order to prevent the high-level Cultivation Techniques from being stolen by other martial artists, although Xiao Chen had spread his Martial Path widely, he was not foolish enough to publicize all the Cultivation Techniques.
"This is a teleportation token. If you encounter danger in the future, activate this token, and you will instantly return to this space."
Immediately, a green light shone from Xiao Chen's hand, and a token suddenly appeared in the hands of all the disciples. Then, Xiao Chen sent these disciples back to the God of War Palace. He had already sent a voice transmission to Shi Ya, taking them to the Martial Arts Pavilion to choose Cultivation Techniques and Martial Techniques. Ziyuan and Wei Yunwei stayed behind. As for the other disciples, they could naturally enter and exit this space with a token.
Soon, Wei Yunwei left with Ziyuan, and only Xiao Chen and his wife were left in the pavilion halfway up the mountain.
"Husband, the assessment of the God of War Palace has come to an end, and you have also received these talented disciples. Regardless of whether it is your disciples or all the martial artists in the God of War Palace, the next step will be up to them!"
Looking at Xiao Chen's somewhat absent-minded eyes, Mu Qing gently held onto Xiao Chen's arm and said softly.
"Yes, the God of War Palace will provide them with everything they want. How far they can go is up to them. Moreover, with this batch of young martial artists as a foundation, the God of War Palace will be on the right track for a period of time. In the future, as long as there are young martial artists who come and pass the Three Outlooks Test, they will be able to join the God of War Palace."
The establishment of the God of War Palace was an important part of the development of Xiao Chen's tribe. It relied on the God of War Palace to radiate the influence of the Gu Yuan Tribe. Moreover, this time, Ancestor Bai Ze had appeared. Xiao Chen had fought against Ancestor Bai Ze head-on and was not defeated. This would definitely shake the Desolate Land, and the prestige of the God of War Palace would be greater than he had expected. In the desolate land, it would attract more martial artists.
Then, Xiao Chen paused, turned his head, and said to Mu Qing, "Have you found anyone with talent in the Way of Alchemy?"
This time, the God of War Palace had opened its mountain gate to recruit young martial artists and teach them martial arts. Similarly, in private, Mu Qing and Nianhua were also looking for people with talent in the Way of Alchemy. However, under the instructions of Xiao Chen, the two women were doing this in private and did not attract anyone's attention.
"According to my husband's orders, we did not attract anyone's attention with great fanfare. From the young martial artists who were eliminated, we found less than a hundred people, but they only have talent. Only a few of them may have the talent to advance to the Alchemist Realm, so we have secretly recruited them into our Gu Yuan Tribe."
Hearing this, Xiao Chen nodded. The reason why this was carried out in private was because of Xiao Chen's intention. This time, he had traded elixirs with many tribes for tens of thousands of high-grade origin stones. It was only because the Gu Yuan Tribe had a monopoly that he could make such a huge profit.
If the Way of Alchemy was passed down in the God of War Palace, these desolate border tribes would definitely swarm over and send their martial artists over. This was not to say that the God of War Palace would not pass down the Way of Alchemy. Xiao Chen was only suppressing this inheritance. Once the Gu Yuan Tribe had accumulated enough resources with the help of elixirs and more alchemists in the tribe would advance to the Advanced Alchemist Realm or even the Grandmaster Alchemist Realm, he would spread the Way of Alchemy so that the Gu Yuan Tribe would always maintain its lead and authority in the Way of Alchemy.
Therefore, this time, under Xiao Chen's instructions, Mu Qing and his wife recruited some wandering martial artists. The young martial artists who were eliminated were recruited by the Gu Yuan Tribe, and very few people could resist them. Moreover, although they could not enter the God of War Palace to inherit the Way of Alchemy, they could enter the Gu Yuan Tribe to cultivate the Way of Alchemy. This was definitely a pleasant surprise.
"Developing the God of War Palace into a holy land for comprehensive cultivation was originally my idea. The Way of Alchemy is relatively simple and easy, so this time, the God of War Palace will only open its mountain gates to recruit young geniuses and nurture experts. When the time is right, we will pass down the Way of Alchemy. Even the Way of Formations and other factions will take time."
Just as Xiao Chen and his two wives were enjoying each other's company, outside the mountain city of the Gu Yuan Tribe.
The assessment of the God of War Palace had ended. In addition to the young martial artists of the Gu Yuan Tribe, there were also martial artists of the major tribes who came to participate in the assessment. With the departure of their respective chiefs, there were still twenty to thirty thousand young martial artists remaining. Including the older generation who followed them, there were more than a hundred thousand people. Among these martial artists, there were many Great Martial Artists of the Heavenly Building Realm. As for Great Martial Artists of the Blood Refining Realm, there were countless of them.
Although these wandering martial artists had a shallow foundation and the cultivation methods they practiced were superficial, the years of fighting in the Desolate Land had made these martial artists more ruthless and powerful.
In the east of the tribe's mountain city, the stone houses that were originally built for the martial artists to participate in the assessment had long been occupied by countless martial artists. There was even a prototype of a small gathering point.
Moreover, that ancient mountain with gravity had the function of tempering one's martial arts. It had become the perfect place for these martial artists to temper their battle qi. Many martial artists even prepared to live here and temper their martial arts with the help of the ancient mountain.
"By the order of Venerable Gu Yuan Xiao."
At this moment, there was a shout from the top of the city wall. "The establishment of the God of War Palace is to spread martial arts. No matter who, as long as they are a descendant of the Human Clan and have a martial heart, come to my Gu Yuan Tribe, even if they can't join the God of War Palace, they will also have the opportunity to inherit high-level cultivation methods."
What!
Outside the city, the originally noisy warriors quieted down in an instant. Now, almost all of the warriors who remained were wanderers and rogue cultivators. They had brought their juniors to participate in the assessment, hoping to get rid of the predicament of martial arts inheritance. However, they had failed. As the saying goes, the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment. There were even warriors who were disheartened and wanted to leave, but when they suddenly heard this voice, a glimmer of hope flashed in their eyes.
