Divide the spoils

Gun Gun pursed its little lips and giggled.

Ye Chen was speechless for a moment.

Crack, crack!

The sound of things shattering rang out.

The group's hearts tightened, and they quickly turned around.

They saw that the cracked worm's fissures were actually starting to widen, and then, piece by piece, it began to shed.

Piece after piece fell to the ground.

The group exchanged glances and turned to run.

They hurried along the tunnel opening and ran outside.

"Roar!"

A roar rang out, shaking the entire cliff wall.

Upon reaching the exit of the cave, they leaped into the air and landed on the ground, finally letting out a sigh of relief.

They also blocked the cave entrance with stones.

The ground was still trembling continuously.

"It seems that the monster didn't die; it just entered its molting period," Zhang Zheng said, finally calming down.

"Yeah! Let's go quickly; this place is trouble, it's best not to stay long."

The group quickly turned and left.

Not long after they left, that spot suddenly collapsed with a boom, and a black monster crawled out.

They didn't know how long they had been walking before they finally stopped.

Finding a relatively flat and safe spot, Ye Chen set up the house there.

It was already eight o'clock, and the sky had turned completely dark.

If they wanted to continue traveling, they would need to light a fire, but if they lit a fire here, it would easily attract monsters.

Therefore, it was better not to travel at night.

The houses from the Monster Shop were quite unique; this type had no windows and was opaque.

From the outside, you couldn't see a sliver of light, but inside, it was brightly lit.

The group sat together and took out everything they had obtained.

A pile of Materials was placed on the table, sorted by attribute and different effects.

"Should we split these things equally or...?" Hong Ye asked.

After all, it was Ye Chen's pet that discovered them, so how to distribute them depended on Ye Chen's wishes.

Ye Chen said, "Let's go by utility. Whoever has a use for something should take it, and if there is anything left over, we will split it equally."

Hong Ye and Zhang Zheng nodded, indicating no problem.

"Jiamu, is there anything in here that is useful for you?" Ye Chen asked, looking at Jiamu.

Jiamu first nodded, then shook her head: "There is, but for me, it's not very useful, so I won't take it. You guys split it."

Ye Chen said "Alright" and began the distribution.

Materials that were helpful to fire-attribute pets were given to Hong Ye, while those helpful to water-attribute pets were given to Zhang Zheng.

Zhang Zheng's pet was actually a water-attribute Immortal Beast Rank pet named Bingqing Saintess; the pet was quite extraordinary.

Dark-attribute and metal-attribute items were taken by Ye Chen.

The remaining items were split equally.

Ye Chen took all the experience herbs below Profound Rank into his hands and said, "I'll take these experience herbs below Profound Rank; I need to refine them."

"Huh? Junior Brother Ye Chen, there are Profound Rank ones in here, could it be that you...?" Hong Ye looked at Ye Chen with both surprise and anticipation.

Ye Chen smiled and said, "That's right, I am now a Profound Rank Alchemist."

"Ah!"

Not only Hong Ye, but Zhang Zheng was also greatly shocked.

"Junior Brother Ye Chen, this is no joke!"

"Ye Chen, do you know how difficult it is to reach the level of a Profound Rank Alchemist? Not to mention the Materials needed for refining, just the Alchemist furnace alone requires so many gold coins."

Zhang Zheng said, his eyes flickering.

"I have no reason to lie to you!" As he spoke, Ye Chen displayed his profession information.

It clearly read Profound Rank Tier 2 Alchemist.

Hong Ye and Zhang Zheng instantly went silent.

After putting away the experience herbs, Ye Chen returned to the room and began refining.

The items harvested along this journey were quite numerous.

Especially the experience herbs and experience fruits, which added up to a full 1.2 million experience points.

Ye Chen took out the three-legged cauldron and began refining.

Refining these Profound Rank experience herbs and experience fruits was much more difficult than the Yellow Rank ones.

The consumption of qi and blood alone was three times that of the Yellow Rank.

Of course, the experience provided by the Profound Rank was also twice that of the Yellow Rank.

A top-tier Yellow Rank Three-Color Herb provided 5,000 experience points, while a low-tier Profound Rank one provided 10,000!

During the refining process, Ye Chen took one qi and blood pill after another.

It took a full three hours to finish refining the qi and blood pills.

Ye Chen wiped the sweat from his forehead and checked his level.

Profound Rank Tier 4 34000/40000

He was still 6,000 experience points away from reaching Tier 5, but there was still a long way to go before reaching Earth Rank.

Ye Chen summoned Blood Asura and Dark Ji, and split the experience points equally between them.

Each received 600,000 experience points.

HP: 592000

Experience: 600000/660000

Blood Asura is at LV39, only 10,000 experience points away from LV40.

It seems that hunting two random monsters tomorrow will be enough for Blood Asura to reach LV40.

Every ten levels is a stage, and each stage is a significant growth.

I believe that once Blood Asura reaches LV40, it will have a huge attribute bonus.

Ye Chen took out the enchantment stones he had recently obtained and the Materials needed for forging weapons, and began enchanting and forging.

Now that Blood Asura also had a Chaos Scythe, he couldn't just enchant weapons for Dark Ji alone.

He had to split them equally, take out the stones, and perform the enchantment.
