After returning to the village, start chasing the mountain from binding Emei

Chapter 845 Breakthrough in Realm, Late Stage of Creation Realm!
During the dog days of summer, the weather grew hotter and hotter each day, so Chen Yangguang stayed home to refine elixirs.

Chen Yang's alchemy skills are visibly improving, and he is now able to refine high-quality Five Dragon Pills.

Although the yield of high-grade pills is very low—only one or two pills might be produced after ten batches of refining—being able to refine a high-grade Five Dragon Pill is a huge step forward.

The creation of something from nothing vividly demonstrates Chen Yang's improved skills in alchemy.

Under the guidance of the Three Corpse Divine Tree, Chen Yang learned a great deal from summarizing his gains and losses.

High-quality Five Dragon Pills contain fewer impurities and are rich in medicinal power, enabling them to reliably exert the power of the Five Dragons. This is of great use to Chen Yang.

The previously used mid-grade Five Dragon Pills only increased the power by three or four dragons. Switching to high-grade Five Dragon Pills will increase the power by five dragons.

With the amplification from elixirs and cultivation techniques, his maximum strength should be able to stabilize at around the power of ten dragons.

After these few days of transformation and continuous practice of the Marrow Cleansing Scripture, his jade bones have been almost completely tempered into flawless bones. The flawless energy from his bone marrow is now tempering his internal organs.

Currently, Chen Yang's mental state has reached the late stage of the Creation Realm, and he can now raise his cultivation level further and try to break through to the late stage of the Creation Realm.

These past few days, Chen Yang has been taking care of his health, preparing to find a suitable time to achieve a breakthrough.

That afternoon, Chen Yang was at home enjoying the air conditioning.

Huang Can was also there.

His house wasn't finished being renovated yet, and the weather was too hot, so the workers weren't working. He also had nothing to do all day, so he often liked to come to Chen Yang's place to cool off.

"Wow, so many wanted posters? The lowest one is worth at least 100,000. This money is too easy to make!"

On the sofa, Huang Can looked at his phone, clicking his tongue repeatedly.

On the phone screen is the interface of the association's APP. Huang Can is now a member of the association and naturally has his own account.

Starting the day before yesterday, a special bounty page has been set up on the homepage of the app.

The list above contains a lot of wanted information.

Wanted: Remnants of the Gu God Cult.

When the Gu God Cult was attacked that day, although the mountain was sealed off, some still managed to escape, while others were blown to bits on the spot. These people were considered missing, and it was unknown whether they were dead. Therefore, they were also listed as wanted, and wanted posters were issued.

There are quite a few people on the page.

From top to bottom, from the Dharma Protectors of the Creation Realm to ordinary believers, the list must contain at least a hundred people.

The most expensive one, the monk of the Dharma-ending Age, has a reward of 500 million.

Next came several more with bounties of 4 million, 3 million, or even over 1 million; there were seven or eight of them.

Huang Can, holding a calculator, idly tallied up the total amount of the bounties.

"Damn, all of it adds up to over thirty million, Chen Yang," Huang Can exclaimed at the end.

Chen Yang was truly at a loss for words, "What, you have an idea? Want to become a bounty hunter like others?"

Upon hearing this, Huang Can gave an awkward smile, "I know my own limitations. I can handle these small fry, but if I encounter those at the Spirit Realm or Creation Realm, I'm doomed."

Those who make it onto the list are definitely vicious criminals. He's just watching the show; they're not so easy to catch, and he's not so easy to run into.

"But you're different. You're so capable, these people on the list shouldn't be difficult for you. If you're lucky, you could catch a few and that would be enough to build several large country villas..."

Huang Can licked his lips. He used to hear that knowledge was money, but now he was realizing more and more deeply that power was money.

For cultivators, strength can be quickly realized.

Chen Yang shook his head and didn't reply.

Such small, insignificant amounts of bounty did not interest him at all.

"I'll make a good note of this. If I ever come across it, it'll be much more profitable than going up the mountain to collect wild produce."

Huang Can looked quite serious, which was somewhat comical.

……

night.

The sky was clear and the moonlight was bright.

Chen Yang climbed the mountain in the dark and arrived at Tiger Leaping Cliff.

The scorching sun had dried up the surrounding weeds, and the mountaintop at night was just as unbearably hot.

An occasional mountain breeze brings a touch of comfort.

Tiger Leap Cliff is the highest point of Qishan Mountain. The view from the cliff is excellent, and you can enjoy the moonlight all night long as the moon rises in the east and sets in the west.

The moonlight is intoxicating tonight, and Chen Yang wants to take advantage of this moonlit night to make a good attempt to break through to the late stage of the Creation Realm.

Although it was outdoors, Chen Yang felt quite at ease with Elder Wu guarding the pass for him.

"Old Wu, are you kidding me? What are you doing bringing this thing here?"

Chen Yang had just arrived at Tiger Leaping Cliff and found a spot to bask in the moonlight when he looked back but couldn't see the eight-winged centipede.

Just as I was about to shout, a dark shadow flew up – it was the eight-winged centipede, still holding the jar.

Chen Yang's face was full of black lines.

I'm preparing to break through to a higher realm and need your help to guard the pass. What are you doing with this thing?
"I was thinking of bringing it here to bask in the moonlight too. The mountaintop is closer to the sky, so the moonlight is richer, making it easier for me to communicate with it..."

"Come on, you..."

Chen Yang almost rolled his eyes to the sky. "Hurry up, business is more important."

"Sigh, it's just breaking through a small realm. This wretched place isn't even a bird in sight. Who would dare to bother you?"

The eight-winged centipede muttered something sullenly, then flew to the edge of a cliff not far away, clutching the jar, where the moonlight was brighter. "Hurry up, break through as soon as possible so I can get some sleep."

Chen Yang shook his head helplessly.

Unreliable, really unreliable.

He was always cautious, and when it came to cultivation breakthroughs, he was most afraid of being disturbed, so he made sure to take good safety precautions.

Chen Yang immediately summoned the Weasel King and handed the little white snake to it.

"What? Don't you believe me?" the eight-winged centipede said.

Chen Yang shrugged. "Just in case."

"whispering sound."

The eight-winged centipede hissed and went to sleep soundly, hugging the jar.

Chen Yang ignored it; business was more important.

He sat cross-legged on the ground, with no intention of looking up at the sky.

A crescent moon, as if someone were squinting and spying from beyond the heavens.

The moonlight poured down like water. Chen Yang focused his gaze on his nose and his mind, circulating his energy through several cycles to adjust his state to its optimal level.

At midnight, when the moon was high in the sky and its light was at its brightest, Chen Yang summoned the Flower of Cultivation.

Three lotus flowers floated at the top, merged into one, and quickly bloomed.

The primordial spirit sat upright within, having grown considerably since its initial form.

The boundless moonlight poured down, and after being refined by the golden lotus, it transformed into specks of primordial spirit energy, which were absorbed by the primordial spirit miniature.

The lotus petals began to fall off for the second time, the energy decomposed and merged into the primordial spirit.

Between withering and flourishing lies the elevation of one's realm.

Chen Yang had already tried this situation when he broke through to the mid-stage of the Creation Realm last time, so he was already very familiar with it.

One lotus leaf after another withered and fell, until the last leaf fell, leaving only a bare lotus platform, in which the primordial spirit was enveloped by a hazy light.

At this moment, Chen Yang took out the remaining Blood Dragon King's heart blood, opened the bottle, and drank it all in one gulp.

Using the Five Contemplations Technique, he quickly refined the Blood Dragon King's life essence.

Immediately following is the Three Flowers Gathering at the Top Divine Skill.

Essence transforms into Qi, Qi transforms into Shen (spirit), Shen transforms into Xu (emptiness), and the three flowers gather at the top of the head.

A massive surge of energy erupted, and under the moonlight, the lotus platform seemed to be infused with new vitality, rapidly sprouting new leaves.

One piece, two pieces...

The number kept increasing until it reached the seventy-third piece, at which point it stopped growing.

The Blood Dragon King's life essence has been exhausted, and relying solely on moonlight for conversion is extremely slow, making it difficult to advance the project.

Chen Yang then prepared to take out the remaining half jar of Medicine King Elixir Wine.

During his trip to Raojiang, he used up quite a few of his good goods. He gave the pears to his uncle, and the only thing he could still offer was the Medicine King Elixir Wine.

This wine contains a lot of medicinal herbs and has dissolved some of the dragon essence energy within it. Its medicinal effects are much milder than directly consuming the dragon essence, and Chen Yang's physique is fully capable of withstanding it.

Its medicinal effects are not much worse than the Blood Dragon King's blood, the only side effect being that it is easy to get drunk if you drink too much.

However, just as Chen Yang was about to stop midway and take the medicinal wine, suddenly, a powerful energy surged wildly into his body from the Baihui acupoint on the top of his head.

what's the situation?
This sudden situation completely baffled Chen Yang.

Where did this energy come from?
It was actually much more concentrated in energy than the Blood Dragon King's blood.

Lunar energy?

Doesn’t look like it?
It was as if someone was transferring power to him.
At this moment, there was so much energy surging into his body that he had no time to think and immediately devoted himself to refining it.

The cultivation flower hanging above their heads began to sprout new lotus leaves.

The seventy-fourth piece, the seventy-fifth piece...

Soon, a flower bud formed, and the golden bud enveloped the primordial spirit. Under the infusion of energy, the bud slowly grew.

It grew to nearly two meters tall before slowly blooming again.

In the center of the flower bud, atop the lotus platform, the primordial spirit had grown to nearly two feet tall, gleaming with golden light and possessing a solemn and dignified appearance.

The primordial spirit figure looked exactly like Chen Yang. Its petals were fully unfolded, and together with the lotus platform, it slowly rotated, radiating a mysterious glow under the moonlight.

……

At this moment, Chen Yang's attention was entirely focused on his cultivation breakthrough, and he was completely unaware that the jar being held by the eight-winged centipede had somehow flown to the sky above his head.

Rays of clear light overflowed from the jar, cascading down on Chen Yang below like a clear waterfall.

The eight-winged centipede remained wrapped around the jar, seemingly completely unaware of what was happening.

It seemed to have fallen asleep and was even snoring. The weasel king stood not far away, staring blankly at the scene, but dared not make a move.

It didn't know what was going on, but one thing was certain: it didn't sense that Chen Yang was in danger.

The centipede didn't move, so naturally it didn't dare to move either, but it felt that this scene was very strange.

The aura emanating from the jar filled it with immense awe.

……

Time passed by minute by minute.

The golden lotus of cultivation withered and bloomed again, with 108 petals growing back. After blooming to their fullest, they closed up again into a bud, then transformed into a golden ray of light that entered Chen Yang's Baihui acupoint.

The golden light receded, and Chen Yang's aura suddenly erupted.

Like a balloon being popped, the force of the bursting air surged outwards in an instant.

The surrounding withered grass was whipped up by the force of the air and flew everywhere.

Become!

Chen Yang opened his eyes, a hint of joy in them.

He finally achieved the late stage of the Creation Realm.

The whole process went surprisingly smoothly.

Chen Yang quickly suppressed his breathing and was about to pull up the system panel to take a look when he heard a snoring sound coming from above him.

He looked up and was immediately stunned.

About ten meters above their heads, an eight-winged centipede was slowly rotating, hugging the jar, fast asleep.

"Old Centipede!"

Chen Yang took a step back and hurriedly called out.

"Well?"

The sleeping eight-winged centipede seemed to be awakened, and its bright red head tilted upwards.

It was at this moment that the jar seemed to lose some kind of supporting force and suddenly fell directly from the air.

Chen Yang did not go to answer it.

The jar fell directly to the ground, using the eight-winged centipede as a cushion.

"oops."

The eight-winged centipede didn't even realize what was happening. It rolled around in the jar, then looked up at Chen Yang, seemingly a little dazed.

"Are you sleeping?" Chen Yang looked at it, both amused and exasperated.

"Is there any?"

The eight-winged centipede asked, bewildered.

"You're snoring."

Chen Yang touched his forehead. "I've already broken through. Didn't you see?"

"Huh? You broke through?"

The eight-winged centipede paused slightly, glanced at Chen Yang, and seemed to have indeed broken through.

So, I really did fall asleep?
It promised to guard the pass for Chen Yang, how could it sleep? If it gets attacked, it will be logged off immediately!

The eight-winged centipede chuckled sheepishly, "This jar is so comfortable to hold, it's like it has some kind of magic, I fell asleep without even realizing it..."

Chen Yang shook his head helplessly.

His gaze fell on the jar beneath the eight-winged centipede.

He bent down and picked up the jar, his expression very serious.

This thing inexplicably flew onto my head.

If nothing unexpected happens, the mysterious energy that suddenly surged into my body just now was caused by this jar.

"Squeak..."

At this moment, the weasel king ran over and communicated with Chen Yang telepathically, explaining what had just happened.

Just as Chen Yang had guessed, it was made from this jar.

Chen Yang frowned.

Why is the thing in this jar helping itself?

"See, what did I tell you? This jar is a real treasure."

The eight-winged centipede was slightly excited. "If it could transfer some of its power to me, that would be perfect."

Chen Yang frowned and remained silent.

"Chen Yang, as the saying goes, 'He who takes a man's money is bound to him, and he who eats another man's food is bound to him.' It's helped you so much, it must want you to help it too..."

“Think about it carefully. The seal on this jar was left by the divine being who left the scriptures for the stone spirit. Now, all the signs indicate that the divine being was an evil cultivator.”

"Could something sealed by a heretical cultivator be considered an evil object?"

"I think there should be a real dragon egg inside, and a live one at that, which may already have consciousness. If you release it, it might just recognize you as its master..."

"If we can't subdue it, we still have me. I haven't even tasted what a true dragon egg is like yet..."

……

The eight-winged centipede spoke with great seriousness, clearly looking incredibly hungry.

Is it really a dragon egg?

Chen Yang thought for a while, then his brows relaxed.

It offered to help itself, clearly wanting its own help.

To be honest, this kind of behavior of demanding repayment for a favor made Chen Yang wary.

However, since the eight-winged centipede has made its point so clearly and so many times, it doesn't know how long it will keep bothering me if this jar isn't opened.

After what had just happened, Chen Yang was also a little curious about what exactly was in the jar.

With his current strength, plus the eight-winged centipede and the little white snake, even if there really is some extraordinary evil creature in the jar, suppressing it shouldn't be too much of a problem.

"How about this."

Driven by the octopus's fervent hope, "Let's vote. The minority shall obey the majority. If the final vote is to fire him, then I won't hesitate any longer. Let's fire him now..."

"vote?"

The eight-winged centipede paused for a moment, looked at Chen Yang, and then at the weasel king. "Just the three of us? That won't do. This rat is on your side. Whatever you choose, it will definitely choose the same way."

"It doesn't count."

Chen Yang immediately excluded the Weasel King, as he hadn't planned to bring it anyway. "You, me, Elder Tree, Elder Leaf, and Senior Stone Spirit, one vote each..."

There were five votes in total, and the most democratic method was adopted, with the minority obeying the majority.

"That's pretty much it."

The eight-winged centipede nodded, somewhat impatiently, "Hurry up, let them come out. Make it clear first, no abstentions allowed. I'll go first, I agree to open the jar..."

At this moment, Shi Ling's spiritual energy fluctuated. "Open it. I'm also curious about what that person would seal inside."

That makes two votes.

Chen Yang broke out in a sweat. "Old Tree, Old Leaf, what do you think?"

"open it."

"open it."

The Three Corpse Divine Tree and the Five Thunder True Man also made their choices.

"Haha."

The eight-winged centipede laughed, "Kid, this is the voice of the people. Four votes, four to one. Your opinion is no longer important."

Chen Yang was both amused and exasperated, never expecting such an outcome.

It's understandable that Shi Ling wanted to open it, but the Three Corpse Divine Tree and the Five Thunder True Man were clearly just looking for trouble.

"Who says my opinion isn't important?" Chen Yang said with a serious expression.

"What? You said you'd vote, are you going to go back on your word?" the eight-winged centipede said.

Chen Yang shook his head. "Since that's the case, I'll cast my vote too. Five to zero, let's proceed."

The eight-winged centipede paused for a moment upon hearing this, then burst into laughter, "Not bad, if you can't beat them, join them. You're a smart kid, what are you waiting for? Let's get started, it shouldn't take much of your blood..."

Seeing his smug expression, Chen Yang said, "However, let's get this straight: if any evil creatures are created, Elder Centipede, you started this, so you'll have to take responsibility..."

"Okay, I'll take full responsibility, I'll take criminal responsibility, alright? Hurry up, my molars are itching for a bite..."

The eight-winged centipede couldn't wait.

Chen Yang was also helpless. What's said is said, and now he was in a dilemma. If he didn't speak, he would break his promise.
