Chapter 21: Lian Chengyu exits Istion
The Lian tribal n’s elders’poundte at night.
“Peng!” The door to thepound was pushed opened. A young man with aplexion as clear as jade walked out.
“Chengyu, why did youe out?” The Patriarch stood up the moment he saw the young man. Lian Chengyu had previously announced that he wanted to iste himself till the Tai Ah Divine Kingdom’s warrior selection began.
Yet it had been less than a month before Lian Chengyu came out of istion.
“My cultivation met some problems...” Lian Chengyu’s expression didn’t look good. He had nned to use two months to umte a strong base before using the deste bones essence to breakthrough to the Purple Blood realm!
By doing so, his fundamentals will be strong, and having umted sufficient amounts, when he breakthroughs into the Purple Blood realm, he would reach the peak of the beginning stages of the Purple Blood realm. Among the others in the beginning stages of the Purple Blood realm, he would be able to keep his head up, and it would aid him in breaking through to an even higher realm in the future. It would be very beneficial!
Tai Ah Divine Kingdom’s warrior selection was particr about a warrior’s fundamentals and cumtive progress. If Lian Chengyu could meet all those requirements, he could get the recognition of the Tai Ah Divine Kingdom’s officers during the warrior selection, and obtain excellent results.
However, the circumstances did not permit so. After picking dry the Lian n Herb Mountain, Lian Chengyu’s cultivation had a slow development despite all the good herbs!
Lian Chengyu believed he had met his bottleneck.
In fact, the attitude towards martial arts mattered most when in istion. With a good attitude, strong confidence and perseverance, it would be easy to break though.
When in self-doubt, thinking something was wrong with the cultivation process, such as hitting a bottleneck, it would inevitably cause a loss in momentum and make breaking through even tougher.
The psychological effect usually did not have significant effects, but Lian Chengyu had originallycked the resources for his cultivation, but matters were made worse, causing Lian Chengyu’s progress to be even slower. In the end, he chose to end his istion prematurely.
By clearing his mind and taking a break before obtaining the deste bone essence, he could then re-iste himself to breakthrough into the Purple Blood realm.
This was Lian Chengyu’s ns. It was a reasonable n. Sometimes it happened that a breakthrough was not possible, but by taking a break resulted in miraculous insight, resulting in a breakthrough unknowingly.
“How has the refinement process of the deste bones been?” Lian Chengyu asked the question that concerned him the most. This piece of deste bone was his entire fortune and life!
“Yes, it’s still going as nned, but... A few of the poor vigers involved in the refining were poisoned a few days ago. I was originally nning on letting them hang on a few days, but seeing they were doing badly, I gave them some Blood Thinning Pills. They have all recovered by now and will not affect the refinement.”
Lian Chengyu knitted his eyebrows upon hearing it, “These trash are really useless. It’s just been a few days and they can’t take the toxicity from the Frost Python deste bones! After eating the Blood Thinning Pills, it will overdraw on their vitality. Under such circumstances, they will die before the refinement of the deste bones is done!”
Lian Chengyu’s words were cold and inhumane. The Patriarch felt he was going overboard and said, “Chengyu...You are asking for too much. These people seldom eat a proper meal or wear proper clothes. How would they be able to endure the toxin from the Frost Python? They have already sacrificed themselves for the Lian tribe. In the future when you make your meteoric rise, you must take care of their families.”
“Got it,” said Lian Chengyu with a straight face. “I’m only worried about the refinement process and fear it will be dyed unnecessarily. If these people died too early, it would affect the refinement process. Grandpa, please send the order down to the tribe to gather more help. The more the merrier. With more people, they can all share in the toxicity of the Frost Python andst longer. Although the Blood Thinning Pill isn’t a very expensive drug, but with most of our money gone, we have to save every penny.”
Lian Chengyu said it lightly. The Patriarch sighed hearing this. He knew that for every person recruited, another life was lost.
The pitiful poor even scrambled to join in the refining of the deste bone for the bacon.
“For the Lian tribe, I guess it has to be so...” eximed the Patriarch “It’s such a pity. If we had a set of deste bones without any toxicity, there wouldn’t be so many deaths due to the refinement.”
“A set of deste bones without toxin?“ Lian Chengyu scoffed. “With the finances of our tribe and that iplete technique manual, would we have been able to exchange for a set of deste bones without toxicity?”
“Besides, the Frost Python deste bones does not have toxin, it just has a hard to dissipate frost Qi. Once it enters the body, it freezes the organs, causing a person to lose his life. With a Deste Heaven Master he could easily dissipate the Frost Python’s Frost Qi. But why would a Deste Heaven Master be willing to help clear such a low-grade deste bone’s toxicity? There was no chance for them toe to our Lian tribal n!”
“Even the young masters of the big tribes were unwilling to use this kinds of deste bones. Only because this set of Frost Python deste bones was the cheapest I could get. Just like how a rich family will give the remaining bones to feed the dogs, to the big tribes, I’m like a wild dog waiting to eat their scraps!”
Lian Chengyu self-deprecatingst words were said with his lips twitching and fists clenched tightly, with his nails piercing into his flesh.
He hated!
The young masters and mistresses of therge tribes could pick among the deste bones, not using those with side effects or low efficacy!
But for him, he had to go through all the trouble and sacrificing his wealth just to obtain a rejected piece of Frost Python deste bones!
Putting all hope on a set of deste bones, which had immense side effects, and risking his life to consume it was pathetic!
“Chengyu, it has been hard on you all these years. But you have to know even the bright in the big tribes are few in number. There are even plenty without the talent in the big tribes, they too don’t get much of the deste beast meat...” The Patriarch felt guilty. He knew Lian Chengyu had great talent, but because the Lian tribal n was too poor, they were unable to nurture him. All these years, the Patriarch had known that Lian Chengyu had a grudge towards the tribe despite him never uttering a word.
It was hard for Lian Chengyu to listen to what the Patriarch had to say. He answered, “Grandpa, don’t console me. Heaven is heartless, treating all things as dogs. Since the world is unfair, I will use my own strength to gain that fairness! Sooner orter, I will take control of my life, and will take control of the lives of others! In the future, I will have all the children of the big tribes at my feet!”
“I understand,” sighed the Patriarch. “Tomorrow I will pass the order to gather more people to refine the deste bones. I will not care about the number of deaths. With more people, they can absorb more of the Frost Qi...making it safer for you when you consume the deste bones.”
The Patriarch knew that Lian Chengyu would not feel any remorse for the poor who died for him.
Lian Chengyu hated the unfairness of the world. He felt he was extremely unlucky, so how could he be bothered with the unluckiness of others?
To Lian Chengyu, the poor were like ants. Even Lian Chengyu saw himself as a slightly bigger ant.
The survival of the fittest, this was a notion ingrained deep in Lian Chengyu’s heart. Only by eating the smaller ants could he keep growing till the point where he could control his own fate and the fate of others, as a top expert.
