Right after Xiao Chen spoke, he looked at his third disciple, Jian Jinghong.
A swordsman would rather take the straight path than the crooked path. He cultivated the Way of the Sword and disdained to hide his cultivation. He even had a sharp edge.
This was Xiao Chen's third disciple, Jian Jinghong!
"Yes, Master. I will annihilate the alien races and unite Xuanling City!"
The iron sword on his back buzzed as if it was responding to its master. After a while, Jian Jinghong stood up and said to Xiao Chen in a deep voice.
Xiao Chen nodded his head. Cultivating the Way of the Sword made his disciple seem a little cold. His every move was like a sharp sword that was about to be unsheathed. Even though he was tasting tea in front of Xiao Chen, his posture was still like a sword, rooted to the ground.
Then, Xiao Chen's gaze turned to the fourth disciple, Xiong Sheng. Xiong Sheng was now very tall. In terms of physique, he was the tallest among the brothers. Moreover, he inherited the Violet Golden Battle Body that Xiao Chen cultivated.
Moreover, he had cultivated to the fourth level of the Golden Battle Body. His battle body was three hundred and ninety feet tall. It could be said that among the nine disciples, Xiong Sheng was the one who truly inherited his legacy.
In addition, Xiong Sheng was born with extraordinary strength, so it was easier for him to cultivate the Golden Battle Body. At the same time, Xiong Sheng was also the disciple who received the most guidance from Xiao Chen. He also imitated Xiao Chen to temper the Golden Battle Body and walked on the path of the Blood Crystal Diamond.
"Master." Xiong Sheng's huge physique made him look very fierce.
But in reality, he was very helpless in front of Xiao Chen. Just like at this moment, under the gaze of Xiao Chen, he couldn't help but touch the back of his head. After calling him Master, he didn't know what to do.
"Fourth Senior Brother, Master is asking you a question."
Ziyuan, who was at the side, squeezed over and grabbed Xiong Sheng's body. She quickly climbed onto Xiong Sheng's shoulder and sat on his shoulder. Her eyes were like crescent moons as she whispered in his ear.
"Master, I, Old Bear, have also learned from my fellow apprentices. I've gathered a few warriors who like to train their bodies and formed a Strength Union. However, because I haven't gotten Master's permission, I haven't divulged any of my Battle Body Cultivation Techniques."
Finally, Xiong Sheng finished his words. All these years, they had been living together day and night, and were very familiar with each other. Naturally, they knew each other's characters. Although Xiong Sheng looked simple and honest, when it came to a real battle, he was definitely a humanoid savage beast that could tear apart a foreign race with his bare hands.
"Your Golden Body is not far from the fifth realm, right?"
Xiao Chen looked at Xiong Sheng as if he could see through his entire body. In reality, cultivating the Purple-Gold Battle Physique didn't require one to condense a Blood Essence Diamond to crystallize their body.
The cultivation of the Golden Body was originally to temper the skin, flesh, and bones. As for the later integration of the whole body's flesh and blood into energy and condensed it into a Blood Essence Diamond with great perseverance, it was a deeper level of the physical body.
"Yes, Master. Because this disciple needs to condense a Blood Essence Diamond, I couldn't advance to the fifth realm."
Xiao Chen nodded and said aloud again, "The fourth realm of the Golden Body, coupled with the condensed Blood Essence Diamond, is enough to defeat an ordinary fifth realm of the Heavenly Building Realm."
"You will be the Pavilion Master of the newly established Body Refining Pavilion in the Palace of War God."
Then, Xiao Chen said to Xiong Sheng, "As for your followers, they will temporarily become your assistants and help you support the framework of the Palace of War God's Body Refining Pavilion."
"Master … disciple obeys!"
Xiao Chen's decisiveness startled Xiong Sheng. Originally, Xiong Sheng wanted to say something to reject it. However, when he saw Xiao Chen's gaze, he swallowed the words he was about to say and agreed.
"Huang Xiaotian." In the next moment, Xiao Chen's eyes turned to the fifth disciple, Huang Xiaotian, and said aloud.
"Hehe … Master, this disciple doesn't need to trouble you to worry about it. This disciple has established the Imperial Beast Alliance, it's just a small matter."
Seeing Xiao Chen looking at him, Huang Xiaotian suddenly seemed to be struck by lightning. He suddenly stood up from his seat and said to Xiao Chen, "It's to enter the Desolate Ancient Forest, capture some strange beasts, and become the battle beasts of other martial artists."
"I think most of them have satisfied your desire for good food!"
Xiao Chen's originally gentle face suddenly turned cold. This fifth disciple loved to satisfy his appetite, and he did things as he pleased. However, this also allowed his cultivation to advance very quickly, and now he also had the cultivation of the fourth realm of the Heavenly Building Realm.
"Fifth Senior Brother is lying. You promised to catch a Blue Phoenix as a battle beast for Yuan 'er, but you haven't caught one for Yuan' er after such a long time."
At this time, Ziyuan, who was still sitting on Xiong Sheng's shoulder, was unhappy. She pouted and pointed at Huang Xiaotian.
"Cough cough …" Being pointed at by Ziyuan, a trace of embarrassment flashed across Huang Xiaotian's simple and honest face. Two years ago, when Ziyuan had pestered him to test the medicine, he had thought of a way to escape. He had never thought that Ziyuan would remember it.
However, it only lasted for a moment before the awkwardness disappeared without a trace.
"Little Junior Sister, the Blue Phoenix is a descendant of a Divine Beast, and it is not easy to find one in the Desolate Ancient Forest. Senior Brother has been looking for it for you, and when I find it, I will subdue it and give it to Little Junior Sister as a battle beast!"
After Huang Xiaotian finished speaking, he could not help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw that Ziyuan was no longer pestering him. However, the others were chuckling at this scene.
"Well, since you are so familiar with fierce beasts, and even capture fierce beasts for other martial artists in the tribe to become battle beasts, then Master will give you a task."
However, Xiao Chen still said with a cold face.
"Master, please tell me. Even if this disciple has to climb a mountain of swords and plunge into a sea of flames, I will definitely complete this task," Huang Xiaotian hurriedly replied.
"Master does not need you to climb a mountain of swords and plunge into a sea of flames, but this task is not that easy to complete."
The fifth disciple, Huang Xiaotian, had a special Beast Spirit Power. He could fuse himself with the fierce beasts, just like a fierce beast. It could be said that this was a supreme secret technique in the Desolate Ancient Forest.
"Since you can find so many strange beasts, it just so happens that our Gu Yuan Tribe only has one Guardian Battle Beast, the Dragon-Blooded Full Moon Rhinoceros."
After saying this, Xiao Chen paused for a moment. However, his following words made everyone understand.
"Master, this disciple does not have the power to subdue a strange beast clan like you!" Huang Xiaotian shouted.
"Master did not ask you to subdue them. Enter the Fallen Dragon Mountain Range and find out where there are strange beast clans. It would be best if you find a strange beast clan with the bloodline of a divine beast. Come back and inform Master, and I will personally subdue it as a Guardian Battle Beast!"
Upon hearing Xiao Chen's words, Huang Xiaotian could not help but breathe a sigh of relief. With his current cultivation base and the fact that his Golden-patterned Bear had become a three-star fierce beast, it was enough to completely conceal his figure in the depths of the Desolate Ancient Forest.
The fifth disciple, Bu Canghai, had a talent for soul concealment and cultivated the Soul Refining Technique passed down by Xiao Chen. Now, he could freely control his soul concealment talent, and his soul power had broken through to the Venerable realm.
With his current cultivation base at the fourth layer of the Heavenly Building Stage, coupled with his soul concealment talent, even a Venerable would not be able to discover his existence.
"Master, this disciple has established a Soul Hall in the Palace of War God and has two followers under me. Both of their souls have a trace of mutation, and they cultivate the ordinary soul cultivation technique that Master has placed in the Martial Arts Pavilion."
Bu Canghai's voice sounded, and he said to Xiao Chen in a clear voice, "However, there are very few people with a soul mutation. So far, this disciple has only found two people."
Speaking of this, Bu Canghai had a trace of regret.
"Canghai, the soul is a taboo place for martial artists to cultivate, and there is not even one in a million people who can have a soul mutation. It is already a great blessing to have two people. Why do you have to be so greedy and entangled?"
"This disciple has been too arrogant!" Under Xiao Chen's deep voice, Bu Canghai came back to his senses.
"Master will also give you a task." Seeing that Bu Canghai quickly returned to his original expression, Xiao Chen nodded and said aloud again.
"Tens of thousands of years ago, there was a Marquis Division in the Desolate Border Region called the Xuankong Division. Have you heard of it?"
As soon as Xiao Chen's words fell, some of the disciples nodded while others shook their heads. However, Xiao Chen did not stop and continued to narrate.
"The Xuankong Division is comparable to a Marquis Division of the Honorable Rank. It's not that the martial artists in the Xuankong Division are strong, but this Marquis Division is a Formation Division, and the clan started with the Formation Division."
Xiao Chen's words made Tian Fang excited. He had also heard of the Xuankong Division, but after tens of thousands of years, this Marquis Division had already turned into ashes.
Although it had formed a secret realm due to special reasons, it had been visited by countless martial artists over the years. Even if there were any treasures, they had long been taken away. Tian Fang did not know why his master was speaking at this moment.
"Now that the Xuankong Division's site is surrounded by a large formation, it has formed a secret realm. To others, it is full of danger, but Canghai, you have the talent of Soul Concealment, so you can integrate your body into it and find out what else is in the ruins of the Xuankong Division."
"The task I'm giving you is to explore the secret realm formed by the ruins of the Xuankong Division."
As for whether there were any treasures left in the secret realm, Xiao Chen was not sure. However, even if there were no treasures left, it would be considered training for Bu Canghai.
If he could integrate into the formation with his talent of Soul Concealment, it would naturally be best if he found something else.
"Sixth Junior Brother, please!"
Tian Fang stood up and gestured to Bu Canghai. The Xuankong Division was built on arrays. Even though it had turned into ruins, there were still items related to the Formation Division. If they could really obtain some of the relics, it might be of unexpected help to the Formation Division that had just been established by the God of War Palace.
