157: Danyangzi reshapes his physical body

Qingtian Sect Main Hall.

Huyan Zhuo and the other four came to the center of the Main Hall and bowed to Jiang Chen.

"Reporting to Sect Master, This Subordinate and the others have not failed in our mission; we have brought back the lotus root jade body."

After the five finished their bows.

Huyan Zhuo took out a human-shaped body, like jade, which floated in the air of the Main Hall.

"Mm, very good."

Jiang Chen nodded, looking at Huyan Zhuo and said, "Little Zhuo, since the item has been brought back, go give it to Danyangzi so he can fuse with it."

"Yes, Sect Master, This Subordinate will go do it now."

Huyan Zhuo agreed and slowly exited the Main Hall.

"You all may also withdraw."

After Huyan Zhuo left, Jiang Chen waved his hand at Elder Zhao Da and the other three.

"Yes, Sect Master, This Subordinate and the others take our leave." Elder Zhao Da and the other three bowed again and exited the Main Hall.

In a luxurious manor hall in the Qingtian Sect Elder accommodation area.

Danyangzi looked at the lotus root jade body brought by Huyan Zhuo, trembling with excitement.

He had waited too long for this moment, and now he was finally going to be reborn.

"Alright, Old Thing, why are you trembling? Aren't you going to fuse with it and then go pay respects to Sect Master?"

Seeing Danyangzi staring at the lotus root jade body, trembling non-stop, Huyan Zhuo glared and retorted.

Now that the item had been brought back, this Old Thing Danyangzi wasn't fusing with it but kept trembling, it was truly infuriating.

"You Old Thing, what do you know? How could you understand my feelings right now?"

Hearing Huyan Zhuo's words, Danyangzi retorted angrily.

For someone who was practically dead and now had a chance to be reborn, what was wrong with being excited for a while?

"Alright, alright, you keep trembling, I'll keep watching." Huyan Zhuo widened his eyes even more, staring intently at Danyangzi.

"You Old Thing..."

Seeing Huyan Zhuo's appearance, Danyangzi no longer cared about being excited, transforming into a ray of light and rushing into the lotus root jade body.

"Buzz!"

As Danyangzi's divine soul merged into the lotus root jade body, the entire body emitted soft hums.

Then, the entire lotus root jade body also changed, beginning to form Danyangzi's appearance.

Half an hour later.

The entire lotus root jade body had completely transformed into Danyangzi's appearance.

And a Peak Great Emperor Eighth Level aura burst forth from Danyangzi's body, filling the entire hall.

"Hehe, Old Thing, you've really turned misfortune into a blessing this time. If you had cultivated for over a thousand years, you might not have reached this realm."

Seeing Danyangzi completely reborn and his cultivation even further advanced, Huyan Zhuo spoke with a smile from the side.

Because Danyangzi was obsessed with alchemy and spent a lot of time on it, his cultivation was only Great Emperor Seventh Level before his demise.

Now, fusing with the lotus root jade body, he directly broke through to Peak Great Emperor Eighth Level, which was truly a huge gain.

"Yes, this is all thanks to Sect Master. Without Sect Master, there would be no Danyangzi today."

Danyangzi examined his new body and said with emotion.

After his emotions had completely calmed down, he glanced at Huyan Zhuo and continued, "Old Thing, I won't waste any more words with you. I'm going to pay respects to Sect Master now."

With that, Danyangzi quickly left the hall and walked towards the Qingtian Sect Main Hall.

Previously, he paid respects to Jiang Chen in a remnant soul state. Now that he had been reborn, he naturally ought to pay respects to Jiang Chen again and wait for Jiang Chen to arrange a position.

"Hmph, if you don't keep me, it's not like I have nowhere to go." Watching Danyangzi leave, Huyan Zhuo muttered and also returned to the Time Pagoda to begin refining artifacts.

Qingtian Sect Main Hall.

As Danyangzi recovered his strength, the system's voice sounded in Jiang Chen's ear.

[Ding, successfully recruited a Great Emperor Expert, rewarded with an epic treasure chest.]

"Hmm, finally got it. System, use this treasure chest for me." Jiang Chen said with a smile to the system.

[Ding, using epic treasure chest...]

[Ding, obtained one great emperor peak summoning card.]

[Ding, obtained one great emperor first level cultivation boost card.]

[Ding, obtained fifty dragon scale fruit trees.]

[Ding, obtained two Saint Emperor Peak Summoning Cards.]

"Heh, not bad, got fifty more dragon scale fruit trees."

Looking at the dragon scale fruit trees from the epic treasure chest, Jiang Chen smiled.

Now that the Qingtian Sect had so many more disciples and a top hundred cultivation realm ranking had been created.

The demand for treasures like dragon scale fruit trees and enlightenment tea trees had surged, so he wished the system could provide an unlimited supply, lest he be unable to distribute rewards to the disciples on the rankings.

"This Subordinate, Danyangzi, has come to pay respects to Sect Master."

Just as Jiang Chen was happy about getting the dragon scale fruit trees, Danyangzi's voice sounded from outside the Main Hall.

Hearing Danyangzi's voice.

Jiang Chen withdrew his gaze from the system inventory and said faintly to outside the hall, "Come in."

As Jiang Chen's voice fell.

Danyangzi respectfully walked to the center of the Main Hall, knelt down and kowtowed to Jiang Chen, saying, "This Subordinate has already fused with the lotus root jade body and obtained a new body. I specially came to pay respects to Sect Master, and I hope Sect Master can arrange a task for This Subordinate, so that This Subordinate can serve the sect."

"Mm, rise." Jiang Chen said with a calm expression, looking at Danyangzi who was kowtowing.

"Thank you, Sect Master!" Danyangzi thanked him and respectfully stood up, awaiting Jiang Chen's appointment.

Jiang Chen didn't delay. After Danyangzi stood firm, he immediately appointed him, "Danyangzi, you are originally an alchemist. This Sect Master now appoints you as the Elder of the Qingtian Sect Alchemy Hall, to refine all usable elixirs for the sect. Later, find Elder Zhao Da to take you to your post."

"Yes, Sect Master, This Subordinate will definitely do my best to refine elixirs for the sect." Upon receiving Jiang Chen's appointment, Danyangzi was overjoyed. After bowing, he was about to exit the Main Hall, preparing to find Li Big Saber to report for duty.

"Wait!" Seeing Danyangzi about to exit the Main Hall, Jiang Chen called out.

He observed that Danyangzi's current cultivation was only Great Emperor Eighth Level. As someone with a bit of OCD, how could he allow the Elders' cultivation to be uneven?

Therefore, he had the system convert a great emperor first level cultivation boost card into a Great Emperor First Level Cultivation Boost Pill, preparing to let Danyangzi break through to Peak Great Emperor Ninth Level.

Anyway, he now had eight great emperor first level cultivation boost cards in his system inventory, and they were just sitting there. It was better to take them out and give them to those who needed to improve their strength.

[Ding, great emperor first level cultivation boost card successfully converted into Great Emperor First Level Cultivation Boost Pill.]

As the system's voice announced, a round pill appeared in Jiang Chen's system inventory.

"Sect Master, is there anything else you wish to instruct This Subordinate?" Seeing Jiang Chen stop him, Danyangzi once again walked to the center of the Main Hall and bowed.

Jiang Chen took out the already converted Great Emperor First Level Cultivation Boost Pill and flew it in front of Danyangzi, saying, "Danyangzi, this pill is a unique elixir refined by This Sect Master. It can instantly increase a Great Emperor's cultivation by one level. I am now bestowing it upon you to improve your cultivation."
