Chapter 447: Boss Is Giving Something Too Good!
An endless divine glow was emitted from the space as aura surged like waves.
Loud bangs and crashes echoed out as battle intent intensified!
There was no need to wonder. It was the Sacred Battle Thearch’s training for Qi Zhan.
Shen Tian looked up into the sky and stroked his chin.
Being personally guided by the Sacred Battle Thearch. This was a great fortuitous opportunity!
This kid is so lucky!
And by the looks of it, it will be going on for some time.
I cannot stand around doing nothing. I must find something to do!
Time is money. It is a shame to waste any time.
What should I do?
Shen Tian scratched his head as he pondered. His eyes suddenly lit up.
I will refine some pills!
Anyway, I have nothing else to do now. It is a good opportunity to refine some Chaotic Sky-Mending Pills!
It should be pointed out that the Sky-Mending Pill was a valuable item. It could be sold for money or used to establish good relations.
A currency like this—one could not have much of it!
...
The main thing was that Shen Tian had gotten a really great harvest this time. Not only did he get a large number of Sage herbs, but he had even gotten 10 Thearch herbs!
It was a big windfall!
With so many Sage herbs in his possession, he would get sick of eating them.
So why not use them to refine some pills?
Moreover, these things were not that useful to Shen Tian. They were just like candy to him!
Using them to refine pills and handing them out was much better than handing out bananas.
After all, not everyone liked to eat bananas!
Moreover, giving someone a big banana as a gift, was that really appropriate?
It might lead to obscene thoughts, especially if he were to give it to a female.
...
Huang Shi had wanted a Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill.
But the Immortal Peach Herb had already been used to exchange for a few Immortal Banana Herbs. As a result, he could not use it to refine the pill.
This was a good chance for him to use the Immortal Banana Herbs. Anyway, a banana was not that different from a peach!
Shen Tian did not dally any longer and started to refine the pills.
He flicked his sleeves, and the divine runes on the Lotus Thearch Cauldron expanded.
The huge cauldron stood before him, radiating with a vibrant divine aura.
Shen Tian executed some hand seals, and True Sun Fire rose, filled with a searing divine aura. It surged into the Lotus Thearch Cauldron.
The True Sun Fire was ranked second on the Exceptional Fire List. It was very powerful and was the best choice for brewing Sage herbs!
Shen Tian was already familiar with the process, so he took out a bunch of Sage herbs and started to refine them.
The Sage herbs were tossed into the cauldron, and they soon transformed into a pool of pure divine liquid under the True Sun Fire’s heat.
The divine liquid was very fragrant and shimmered like liquid gold. It was a dazzling sight.
Yeap, a pool of golden liquid...
There were 24 mid-grade Mixed Sacred Golden Bananas and 12 superior-grade Mixed Sacred Golden Bananas among the Sage herbs.
Shen Tian had invested quite a bit into this batch of pills!
The Sacred Battle Thearch had carefully cultivated the Mixed Sacred Golden Bananas. They possessed a powerful life force, far stronger than the effects of other Sage herbs.
It was only natural that the effects would be very potent after refining so many Sage herbs into this liquid.
The golden liquid shimmered as a divine aura swirled around it. It also exuded a wonderful fragrance.
Just one drop possessed enough power to greatly improve a Sage’s cultivation level!
But this was not the finale. Shen Tian took out three more bananas!
The moment he took out those bananas, their aura was like a spirit wave gushing over and covering the entire region!
In the blink of an eye, this area was engulfed in a powerful life force. It was like it could nourish all living creatures—vibrant and robust!
This was because these three were Thearch Immortal Banana Herbs!
The effects of three Thearch-level bananas were definitely comparable to that of an Immortal Peach Herb and a 12th Stage Lotus.
It might be even more potent!
...
Even a Thearch would feel pained at the thought of using three Thearch herbs at once!
If it was someone else, they would not bear to use even one!
This was a Thearch herb, after all. It was very, very rare!
However, Shen Tian did not care. Anyway, he still had seven more in his storage ring.
He put the three Immortal Banana Herbs into the Lotus Thearch Cauldron and fanned the True Sun Fire to smelt them.
In an instant, a golden glow shone out of the cauldron.
The dazzling divine aura was like a blazing sunrise. Mighty and magnificent, full of vibrant divine energy!
The aura was like a tremendous wave, and the cauldron shook and vibrated as light, and divine energy shot out in all directions.
“Smelting three Thearch herbs together. Things are getting a little wild!”
Thearch herbs were naturally very potent, and three Immortal Banana Herbs refined together was a terrifying force.
As powerful as the True Sun Fire was, it was unable to smelt them.
Shen Tian did not mind. He increased the energy, and the True Sun Fire blazed even fiercer.
The scorching divine flames morphed into a flock of fiery Golden Crows, charging at the three bananas inside the Lotus Thearch Cauldron.
Golden beams vibrated and shot out continuously from the flames, but it was still not enough.
Shen Tian frowned.
“The Yang energy is too strong. It is impossible to use the same type of energy to try and smelt this. Let me lower the fire then.”
Shen Tian took out a fan shaped like a banana leaf and covered in dazzling golden runes. It was the Banana Fan, a pseudo-Thearch artifact. It was a precious artifact used by the Lotus Thearch to refine pills.
During Shen Tian’s previous pill-refining attempts, the potency had been gentle enough, and there had been no need for him to use this pseudo-Thearch artifact.
Now that he was trying to refine three Thearch herbs, their power was very explosive. He had to use this Banana Fan to neutralize the effects.
The Banana Fan was created from the Moon Essence Leaf and possessed very powerful Yin energy. It was the best choice to use this to temper down the Yang energy’s explosive power.
Shen Tian waved the Banana Fan lightly, and a gust of Yin energy flowed out.
In the next instant, raging winds howled and surged endlessly, causing the golden rays to vibrate.
The formerly-surging Yang energy was somewhat reduced, but it was not completely dispelled, just compressed together.
“It is indeed effective.”
Shen Tian waved the Banana Fan again, creating waves of Yin energy.
The Lotus Thearch Cauldron’s golden light wavered as the Yang and Yin energies clashed and merged, inciting a tremendous natural array.
In the end, all became calm. The herb potency also became gentler.
Done!
Shen Tian’s eyes lit up, and he quickly increased the fire energy again.
The three Immortal Banana Herbs were continuously smelted by the True Sun Fire, transforming into drops of dazzling golden liquid.
The hardest part of the pill-refining process had been completed. It was time to start refining.
Shen Tian executed a different set of hand seals and continued to enhance the fire to refine the liquid.
Unfortunately, it was a very long process.
Eighteen days later...
Loud noises echoed across the skies, and divine rays shot out everywhere, but most of them were sounds of bodies clashing.
It was clear that the Sacred Battle Thearch was still thrashing Qi Zhan.
The red aura on his body had become increasingly dazzling while his battle intent had grown stronger.
Qi Zhan had gained quite a bit after this period of training. After all, he was being personally guided by the Sacred Battle Thearch, who followed the way of the battle.
Qi Zhan already understood the true meaning of the Battle Imperial Sutra. His battle intent continued to strengthen, and his battle prowess greatly increased. He could even hold himself longer under the Sacred Battle Thearch’s assault. It was no longer a one-sided full-on suppression.
Before long, Qi Zhan would be able to cultivate “Battle Blood Burns the Sky” to the highest stage.
At that moment, an intense fragrance drifted by, covering the entire region.
Qi Zhan’s nose twitched as if he had detected a dreamlike fragrance. It relaxed him.
He hurriedly shouted in excitement, “Ancestor, stop fighting! What a wonderful smell. Maybe some precious treasure has just emerged!”
This fragrance had the power to stir one’s soul, and Qi Zhan was instantly bewitched.
The Sacred Battle Thearch was immersed in the thrill of the battle and did not notice.
He spoke mildly.
“Don’t you know this is my territory? You two have ransacked everything. How can there be any treasure?
“Child, don’t try and slack off! I won’t allow you to leave until you finish cultivating the Battle Blood Burns the Sky!”
With that, the Sacred Battle Thearch once again smashed his fist toward Qi Zhan.
Qi Zhan immediately hollered. “Ancestor, I am speaking the truth! Sniff the air if you don’t believe me!”
He looked very piteous.
Over the past 18 days, he had received even more intense training than the first three days.
Qi Zhan was extremely woeful.
Ancestor, I can see you are having a good time! If not for the fact that I have very hard bones, I might not be able to climb back up from the ground!
...
The Sacred Battle Thearch was still dubious.
“If you are trying to trick me... I will double the intensity of tonight’s training!”
The Sacred Battle Thearch sniffed the air, and astonishment flashed across his eyes.
“There is indeed a fragrant smell!”
Rip!
He ripped open the golden screen in the sky, and the two apes peered out and saw that Shen Tian was refining some pills.
The fragrance was coming from that cauldron.
Qi Zhan was taken aback. “Boss knows how to refine pills? What kind of pills are these? Why does it smell so good?”
Qi Zhan was shocked and very awed.
Shen Tian already possessed astonishing battle prowess and high innate talent. Yet, he could also refine pills!?
And by the looks of Shen Tian’s skilled movements, he was clearly also very good at it.
Boss is indeed omnipotent! He can do everything!
Qi Zhan’s admiration for him grew even more intense.
The Sacred Battle Thearch’s eyes hardened. He was still focused on the cauldron. The corners of his mouth twitched slightly.
Pursing his lips, he muttered. “This kid is... desecrating a precious heavenly treasure!
“What does a young punk like him know about refining pills? What a waste of a precious treasure.
“Bananas and peaches are for eating raw. Isn’t that good enough for him?
“But this kid is refining them into pills. They have completely lost their original flavor!”
The Sacred Battle Thearch noticed that Shen Tian was using the Immortal Banana Herbs to refine the pills and was enraged. He believed that Shen Tian was wasting the bananas.
This delicious fruit should be eaten raw!
His eyes soon widened with surprise, however.
“What? This kid is able to control chaotic aura?”
The Sacred Battle Thearch saw that Shen Tian manipulated chaotic aura and infused it into the cauldron, using the aura to refine the herbs.
He was full of disbelief.
The Sacred Battle Thearch had been an elite practitioner 180,000 years ago. His cultivation had been at peak levels, so he knew what this chaotic aura represented.
It was a power that even a Thearch could not control!
Unexpectedly, he was now seeing this chaotic aura on a junior who had not even ascended to the Tribulation Transcendence stage.
What was even more surprising was that this chaotic aura was very docile and easily controlled!
Is this some kind of joke? Is he the illegitimate son of the heavens!?
The Sacred Battle Thearch started to doubt the meaning of life.
One month later...
Rumble!
The Lotus Thearch Cauldron shook violently, and divine light radiated as a surging divine aura spread across the region.
It was finally the last step of the pill-refinement.
Shen Tian executed a different set of hand seals and started to form the pills. The divine liquid inside the cauldron gathered together to form multiple smooth, round pills.
Rumble!
Terrifying lightning strikes spread across the skies as intense dark clouds gathered above the cauldron, exuding an immense pressure and destructive divine aura.
“There are Thearch-level divine pills!”
The Sacred Battle Thearch looked shocked. He had no idea what kind of pill Shen Tian had been refining, but by the looks of this aura, they must at least be Thearch-level.
A mere junior is able to refine Thearch-level pills!?
The Sacred Battle Thearch was already astonished, but the next scene made him even more shocked!
“Those pills don’t look like your ordinary Thearch-level pills!”
The Sacred Battle Thearch had been a major Thearch 180,000 years ago and had consumed Thearch-level pills before, but he had never seen any Thearch-level pills refined by chaotic aura.
It was unprecedented and mind-blowing.
Rumble!
Thunder echoed through the air as a mighty divine aura surged outward.
It was like the moment the pills were completed, an all-destroying Heavenly Tribulation Lightning would be unleashed to destroy everything.
Qi Zhan shuddered as the aura sent a chill down his spine.
This lightning tribulation was too terrifying. Even a normal Sage might not be able to endure it. What kind of pill was able to attract such a terrifying lightning tribulation?
The Sacred Battle Thearch was not just staring dumbly. He waved, and the natural arrays of the earth changed and gathered.
Beams of dazzling divine runes spread across the land and space, completely sealing off this area.
Before long, the lightning tribulation could no longer detect the pills’ aura and slowly dispersed.
This was the Sacred Battle Abode and full of powerful arrays. It could be easily separated from the outside world.
The Sacred Battle Thearch also wanted to see what kind of pill Shen Tian was able to produce. This was why he helped to dispel the lightning tribulation.
...
With the lightning tribulation dispelled, Shen Tian could concentrate on the pill-refinement.
He was completely focused as he executed the various pill-refinement hand seals to create beams of divine runes and infused them into the cauldron.
These pills were becoming more solid and very fragrant as a misty fog surrounded them.
Boom!
A thunderous boom shook the place.
The cauldron lid flew into the air, revealing the contents.
At the same time, a thick fragrance radiated outward. It was akin to a celestial spirit liquid. One couldn’t help drooling at the scent.
Inside the cauldron were 36 plump, round pills dazzling with golden light.
They were the Chaotic Sky-Mending Pills.
And the number of pills in this batch was more than the previous one. There were a total of 36!
At the same time, these Chaotic Sky-Mending Pills were even more potent than the previous ones.
Firstly, it was because Shen Tian’s pill-refinement skills had improved with practice. Secondly, he had used three Immortal Banana Herbs.
Upon smelling the fragrance of the Sky-Mending Pills, Qi Zhan and the Sacred Battle Thearch were instantly transfixed.
It was just too fragrant, far more intense than the Immortal Banana Herb. This was what apes loved the most!
Greed flashed across Qi Zhan’s eyes as his saliva nearly dripped to the ground. He wiped his mouth and stepped forward curiously. “Boss, what kind of pills are these? Why do they smell so good?”
Qi Zhan was speaking to Shen Tian, but his eyes remained fixed upon the 36 pills.
These things were even more alluring than the Immortal Banana Herbs.
Shen Tian smiled. “These are Chaotic Sky-Mending Pills. I refined them using three Immortal Banana Herbs and many Mixed Sacred Golden Bananas. This pill is very miraculous and has heaven-defying and destiny-changing abilities. It can enhance one’s innate talents and powers.”
“What? There is such a miraculous pill in this world?”
Qi Zhan was shocked. He knew very well what it meant to enhance one’s innate talent.
This was truly heaven-defying and destiny-changing!
It was mind-blowing that Shen Tian could refine this grade of pill.
Qi Zhan felt the Chaotic Sky-Mending Pills’ aura, and a soothing sensation spread across his body. His blood surged in excitement!
These were definitely peerless divine pills! No question about it!
Boss would never lie to me!
“Boss, can you give me one? I am willing to exchange it for an Immortal Banana Herb!”
Qi Zhan’s eyes blazed as he gazed at the 36 plump, golden pills. It was not just because these pills possessed a heaven-defying and destiny-changing effect. The main reason was that they were just too fragrant.
No ape could resist!
As a result, Qi Zhan was willing to give an Immortal Banana Herb in exchange.
Shen Tian smiled and handed one Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill to Qi Zhan.
“You are my good buddy. No need to stand on ceremony. This Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill is my gift to you.”
The value of this Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill was even higher than that of a normal Thearch herb in the outside world.
Firstly, this was a Thearch-level pill with even more potent effects than a Thearch herb.
Also, this kind of pill could only be refined using chaotic aura. Apart from Shen Tian, no one else in the world could make such pills.
Lastly, the effects of these Sky-Mending Pills could drive even a Great Sage mad.
The above-mentioned three reasons were why the value of these pills was beyond measure!
However, Shen Tian did not mind.
This may be a priceless treasure to others. But it only cost him a bit of fire and a bit of time to Shen Tian. As long as he wanted to, he could refine a big batch. The number of Sage herbs and Immortal Banana Herbs in his storage was enough to let him refine a few more batches.
Of course, there was a good reason why Shen Tian gave a Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill to Qi Zhan.
Qi Zhan was a Son of Providence with a deep purple halo, after all.
Shen Tian had been able to benefit from his fortuitous opportunity just some time ago. This was such a fertile goose. He had to take good care of him!
...
Qi Zhan was totally dumbstruck when Shen Tian handed him the Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill. He completely didn’t expect Shen Tian to be willing to give him such a peerless pill.
Qi Zhan lifted his hand slightly as if he was going to accept the Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill, but he suddenly started trembling uncontrollably.
His lips moved as if he wanted to reject Shen Tian, but he couldn’t get the words out.
Yes, going by his usual character, Qi Zhan would never have accepted this pill. After all, Shen Tian had just given him a pseudo-Thearch artifact not too long ago.
The Sacred Battle Apes were full of pride and righteousness. He would feel very uncomfortable with himself if he got a treasure without doing anything.
He also didn’t want to take advantage of Shen Tian. Thus, Qi Zhan should have rejected it.
Unexpectedly, he was now unable to squeeze out the words!
Gazing at the Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill, Qi Zhan was filled with conflicting emotions!
I want to reject it!
But Boss is giving something too good, too fragrant!
I cannot reject it!
...
In the end, Qi Zhan made a decision. He accepted the Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill with trembling hands. His eyes were filled with gratitude.
“Thank you, Boss! I will never forget this favor of yours! Whenever you need me in the future, I will be there even if I have to run through fire and swim across boiling waters!”
Qi Zhan took a deep breath. He was touched to tears by Shen Tian’s gesture. This Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill was comparable to that of a true Thearch artifact. One would be able to exchange for a Thearch artifact with this pill. After all, it could greatly enhance one’s abilities.
However, Shen Tian was willing to give it to him for free. No one else had such magnanimity!
Shen Tian smiled as he shook his head. “You are welcome. Hurry up and eat the pill. Your Thearch ancestor is here and can help you form a protective array.”
Qi Zhan nodded and sat down cross-legged to consume the pill.
Gulp!
The pill dissolved into a sweet, warm current after entering his stomach. It suffused into his body.
Qi Zhan radiated with a dazzling golden light as his aura surged.
An enchanted look crossed his face as he immersed himself in the delicious taste of the Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill.
The pill morphed into a warm current and spread throughout his limbs, skeleton, and internal organs. His entire body radiated with a dazzling divine light.
In the blink of an eye, Qi Zhan’s cultivation level shot up wildly.
That was not all. His golden fur became very smooth and silky. His body also became more firm and muscular!
A powerful battle intent surged like a tsunami, erupting with extreme force.
In his current state, Qi Zhan was at the maximum level of his Sacred Battle Ape bloodline. He was like a divine God of War, filled with battle intent as if he wanted to battle the entire world!
The Sacred Battle Thearch was shocked at the sight. He could feel that Qi Zhan’s battle blood was evolving and becoming purer. There were even signs that the ancient essence of the bloodline was being awakened.
The Sacred Battle Thearch was shaken to the core. His eyes shone brightly!
This type of pill was able to raise even the bloodline of a Sacred Battle Ape!
Didn’t this mean that with enough pills, they could create more Sacred Battle Apes!?
...
It should be pointed out that the most powerful Golden Eyed Fire Apes already had very strong innate abilities. They were only half a step away from awakening the Sacred Battle Ape bloodline.
Yet, countless ape prodigies remained unable to overcome that half a step.
Surprisingly, this Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill was able to enhance one’s bloodline!
If those powerful Golden Eyed Fire Apes were able to get this pill... Wouldn’t they be able to create Sacred Battle Apes by the minute!?
Tssss~
The revival of my Sacred Battle Ape race is finally here!?
