From Master Cao’s expression, this Vermilion Fruit couldn’t compare to the "Star Soul Berries" he’d found on the corpse of the Iron Armor Sect’s Master Lei last night, but it was still undoubtedly valuable.
...
Back at his residence at the Seven Stars Gang.
Mrs. Zhang had already finished brewing the herbs for his Bone Tempering bath. The entire courtyard was filled with a dicinal aroma.
Zhao Tianxing was nowhere to be seen.
Chu Fan took a deep breath and glanced at his panel.
[Spiritual Essence: 1479]
The increase in Spiritual Essence from killing the White Tiger Gang mbers and the white-robed man from the Moon Worship Sect last night had been substantial. He was just a step away from the 1,500 mark.
Based on his experience with previous Bone Tempering baths, his Spiritual Essence would surpass 1,500 after this one.
Chu Fan considered this as he worked, moving without pause. He went to the kitchen and poured the brewed dicinal liquid, herbs and all, into the wooden tub Mrs. Zhang had prepared in his room.
He closed the door and windows, stripped off his clothes, and stepped into the wooden tub.
An hour later, the dicinal properties of the liquid in the tub had been completely absorbed.
But the lingering dicinal aroma in the room was still extrely potent.
[Spiritual Essence: 1524]
’Finally...’
’It’s over 1,500!’
In the wooden tub, Chu Fan slowly raised his head.
’This was much faster than I expected.’
He had originally thought that even with daily feasts and three bowls of Blood-Nourishing dicine Soup, it would take him at least a year and a half to amass 1,500 points of Spiritual Essence.
He never expected it would only take a little over three months.
The daily dicinal baths and the elixirs he consud had beco the primary sources of his Spiritual Essence growth.
Chu Fan stood up from the tub, got dressed, and stretched his limbs in the courtyard before deciding to go find Tianxing.
Although he had promised Master Cao he would give the Three-leaf Star Soul Grass to his senior, Li Qingxue, he had obtained the herb with Tianxing. He needed to discuss it with him first.
Just as he stepped out of the courtyard gate...
...he saw Zhao Tianxing walking toward him.
"I was just looking for you."
Chu Fan explained that his senior, Li Qingxue, needed the Three-leaf Star Soul Grass to break through a bottleneck, then looked at Zhao Tianxing questioningly.
But Zhao Tianxing just grinned and waved his hand dismissively. "You decide. It’s fine."
"Master Cao treats us like his own sons. What’s a single stalk of Three-leaf Star Soul Grass compared to that?"
"Besides, we’re pretty well-off now. We can just stop by the black market and buy so more Treasure Plant Spirit Fruits."
Chu Fan nodded. "Alright, then you take the Three-leaf Star Soul Grass to Master Cao’s place. I have to go ho for sothing."
"Sure thing!" Zhao Tianxing nodded.
Chu Fan didn’t linger. He strode out of the Seven Stars Gang compound and rushed ho.
’Today’s the day I refine the Demon Suppression Stele!’
His pace quickened, wishing he could just fly ho.
...
Back ho, Chu Fan used the hidden Array to enter the cave.
He saw the Demon Suppression Stele, ancient and weathered, still standing silently in its place, exuding a magnificent aura that seed to suppress all creation.
Suppressing his excitent, Chu Fan slowly approached it.
He slowly raised his right hand and pressed his palm against the body of the stele—the stone surface was cool and rough, heavy with the weight of ages.
A demon dragon soaring to the heavens!
The light of a blade ending the world!
The countless terrifying scenes he had witnessed before flashed through his mind again like lightning!
A torrent of chaotic, complex information flooded his mind, making his head feel as if it would split open.
[Item Discovered: Demon Suppression Stele. Refinent requires 1,500 Spiritual Essence. Refine?]
[Refinent will grant the Cultivation Technique: "Demon Dragon Celestial Spirit Scripture"]
’Refine!’ Chu Fan roared in his mind.
The images that had been rushing in, too frantic to grasp, suddenly slowed.
It was like a raging flood turning into a gentle, flowing stream—slow, yet steady.
In the vision, an Ancient Divine Mountain stood, tiless and eternal.
The image of a mysterious, powerful expert creating a Secret Skill atop the mountain and using it to suppress the heavens and the earth was imprinted clearly in Chu Fan’s mind.
A vast stream of information instantly filled his consciousness.
Countless ancient, profound Runes flickered and combined like constellations.
They finally converged into a profound scripture—
The "Demon Dragon Celestial Spirit Scripture"!
This Secret Skill seed to be branded directly onto the depths of his soul.
The Body Refining Technique it described was the ultimate expression of hardness and yang, unmatched in its tyrannical power.
It drew upon Celestial Dragon Power.
To temper an Undying Divine Body!
When cultivated to its peak, one could achieve the status of a Saint of Flesh, suppress all demons, and attain Undying Immortality!
At this mont, Chu Fan could actually understand all the small, tadpole-like characters on the Demon Suppression Stele!
Chu Fan released his hand from the stele, gasping for breath as he endured the head-splitting pain from the torrent of information.
But then...
While he was still silently absorbing the inheritance of the "Demon Dragon Celestial Spirit Scripture," sothing unexpected happened!
VMMMM—!
The Demon Suppression Stele on the ground suddenly began to tremble violently!
The blurry characters on the inscription seed to co alive, bursting forth with a dazzling radiance!
The entire cave shook violently in response!
The next mont, to Chu Fan’s astonishnt, the stone stele transford into a streak of light.
With a WHOOSH, it shot directly into the palm of his right hand!
