475: The emperor pill belongs to me

Zhu Kun, Gu Yuan, Xiao Xuan, and others gathered around Lin Xiu.

“Alas, Soul Emperor still escaped.”

Xiao Xuan sighed, full of helplessness.

Lin Xiu frowned and said, “Logically, with so many of you, you should have been able to catch him.”

“Boy, the Soul Clan isn’t as simple as you think; their Cultivation methods are different from ours.”

Zhu Kun said, “That Soul Emperor must have used a secret technique of the Soul Clan. His speed was extremely fast, and he split into several directions. The Dragon mark I left on him was consequently separated.”

Everyone present had been tempered by long years, so they naturally understood the principle of not letting a tiger return to the mountains.

So they all used their own methods.

However, the Soul Clan’s methods seemed to be more Advanced.

“As long as Soul Emperor lives, we will never have peace,” Lin Xiu said in a deep voice.

Soul Emperor was a very ambitious person; one or two failures would hardly destroy his will.

Especially if Zhu Kun and the others began their Breakthrough to Dou Di, Source Energy might return to the Dou Qi Continent due to the Void Realm breaking open.

At that time, Soul Emperor was very likely to make a comeback.

“There’s no need to worry for a while. Before Soul Emperor escaped, the three of us attacked him. He took a blow from us, and even if he managed to save his life, it would definitely take him at least ten or eight years to recover his strength.”

Zhu Kun smiled faintly, “With this time, I will already be able to Breakthrough to Dou Di. By then, the difficulty of finding him on the Continent will certainly be much smaller than now.”

As soon as he finished speaking, someone immediately shouted.

“Lin Xiu, although your contribution to this matter is the greatest, if it weren’t for us, you wouldn’t have had the chance to get the emperor pill. Regarding the ownership of this emperor pill, you cannot make the decision alone.”

Yan Jin said in a deep voice.

Lei Ying said, “Yes, Lin Xiu, let’s all discuss this emperor pill and see how to maximize its value.”

The battle had just ended, and everyone’s attention immediately focused on the emperor pill.

Lin Xiu calmly said, “Don’t worry, I won’t be taking this emperor pill.”

As soon as he spoke, it was like a thunderclap from a clear sky.

The scene was in an uproar.

The Elders of various clans, who occupied half the sky, all showed surprised expressions.

Yan Jin and Lei Ying were stunned.

“Lin Xiu, tell us your thoughts.”

Yao Dan frowned slightly, revealing a puzzled expression, seemingly unable to fathom Lin Xiu’s thoughts.

Who would refuse an emperor pill?

“Firstly, this emperor pill is a semi-finished product. To use it, it still needs to be refined into a complete emperor pill. I can help with this process.”

Lin Xiu directly took out the emperor pill.

Immediately, the temperature around him seemed to rise due to the converging gazes.

Yao Dan nodded, “It’s indeed no problem to entrust you with the Alchemy. On this Continent, your Alchemy strength is the highest.”

Yan Jin and Lei Ying and the others also remained silent.

“Secondly, I believe that to maximize the value of the emperor pill, it should be given to whoever can use it the fastest, which means someone whose strength is close to the Peak of Dou Sheng. Otherwise, holding an emperor pill is just for show.”

Lin Xiu continued.

Yan Jin frowned, his gaze subtly sweeping over Zhu Kun, and asked, “Do you mean to choose one from Clan Chief Gu Yuan, Clan Chief Xiao Xuan, and Senior Zhu Kun?”

It seemed like a choice of three.

But a closer look would reveal that two of them had extremely close ties with Lin Xiu.

According to this, the biggest beneficiary would still be Lin Xiu.

Lei Ying and the Elders of various clans stared at Lin Xiu, curious who he would recommend.

Lin Xiu said without hesitation, “Senior Zhu Kun is not among them. I am only responsible for refining the Medicinal Pill. The specific candidate should be chosen from Senior Gu Yuan and Senior Xiao Xuan. As for who it is, you can discuss it yourselves. My idea is that after a Breakthrough to Dou Di, it might help the Source Energy of this world return, and then everyone else’s Breakthrough might not necessarily rely on an emperor pill.”

As his voice fell.

Not only were Yan Jin and Lei Ying somewhat surprised, but even Gu Yuan was a little taken aback.

Lin Xiu actually voluntarily excluded Zhu Kun?

It was truly unexpected.

Gu Yuan had already prepared himself. If Lin Xiu insisted on giving the emperor pill to Zhu Kun, he would definitely argue for it.

In a world where the highest strength was only Dou Sheng, the sudden appearance of a Dou Di would undoubtedly have an extremely huge impact.

However.

His previous assumptions were completely unused.

Among everyone present, only Zhu Kun and Xiao Xuan showed the least emotional fluctuation.

“You can discuss among yourselves who to choose. I’m going to prepare for Alchemy.”

Lin Xiu left directly, ignoring those people.

After all, the threat of Soul Emperor was over, and he could finally relax and attend to his own matters.

Zhu Kun followed Lin Xiu, leaving together.

“Senior shouldn’t blame my decision, right?” Lin Xiu asked, turning his head.

Zhu Kun smiled, “With enough Source Energy, who still needs an emperor pill?”

“That’s good,” Lin Xiu smiled gently, “When does Senior plan to make his Breakthrough to Dou Di? I’ll give you the Source Energy.”

“In a few days first. It’s not easy to come out of the Immortal Cave, I need to talk to my daughter first. It’s been so many years since we last met.”

When Zhu Kun mentioned Zi Yan, he suddenly thought of something and clamped Lin Xiu’s shoulder, “You brat, my daughter is already pregnant with your child, and you’re still calling me ‘Senior’.”

“Uh…” Lin Xiu was stunned.

“I told him to call you that. What kind of father are you? You’ve never fulfilled a father’s responsibility,” Zi Yan poked her head out from Lin Xiu’s other side, huffing angrily.

Every dog has its day.

Zhu Kun sheepishly let go, patting Lin Xiu’s shoulder, “Where did you get that dust just now? I’ll pat it off for you.”

...“Everyone, the Cultivation Alliance might not compare to the clan realms of a few of you, but since we need to discuss matters, let’s find a place to sit down and talk. At least it’s better than hanging in the sky and being watched like monkeys, right?”

Xiao Xuan smiled, looking around.

“Everyone, bring a few Clan Elders and let’s sit down and chat. Lin Xiu voluntarily gave up the emperor pill, which is a big concession. If we old-timers can’t be as open-minded as a child, then it would be a joke.”

Shi Chen spoke.

His strength was the weakest among the Clan Chiefs, so he clearly knew that such an emperor pill would definitely have nothing to do with him.

Therefore, his mood was also the most relaxed among everyone.

Subsequently, the vast majority of Elders organized their clansmen and returned to their respective clans along the passage.

The remaining Clan Chiefs of various clans, along with their respected Elders, followed behind Xiao Xuan and descended to the ground.

The colossal stone gate, tens of thousands of feet wide, still floated above the lava. The people of the Cultivation Alliance looked at the sky, where blue skies and white clouds had reappeared, with expressions as if waking from a dream.

“The Soul Clan is just gone?”

“I heard that the Alliance Master had anticipated this battle early on and made thorough preparations. It’s hard to imagine that the Alliance Master, so young, could foresee so much.”

“Yes, when the Soul Clan army appeared before, I thought it was the end of the world. I even wrote my last words, but I didn’t expect to still be alive.”

“After this battle, the status of the Cultivation Alliance will be unshakeable!”

“Cultivation Alliance!”
