35: Chapter 35 Inner Demons? What are those?

The butian pill is a unique Medicinal Pill whose grade changes with the main ingredients. It does not require any Heaven And Earth Treasure. Instead, it takes the Origin of a world as its core, uses the Yin and Yang Dao rhythms as supplements, and is refined with Heavenly Lightning and Earth Fire.

The Origin of a Minor Thousand Worlds requires an Alchemist at the Immortal Dao level to act, while the Major Thousand Worlds require an Alchemist comparable to Laozi. As for the Origin of the Sole True Realm, it has never appeared before, and no one has ever dared to use the Origin of the Sole True Realm for Alchemy.

What Ye Qingxuan obtained is the Origin of a Small World, which requires seven Nascent Soul Stage Alchemists to refine together. For ordinary Cultivators, its effects are even better than directly absorbing the Origin of the world.

Not everyone has an supreme Dao foundation like Ye Qingxuan, who can absorb so much Origin of the world without any side effects.

Master Yuanxin said to Ye Qingxuan: "Go and absorb the Origin of the world to make a Breakthrough to the Nascent Soul Stage first. After you emerge from seclusion, go straight to Longhu Mountain; that place is suitable for refining the butian pill."

"What about the Monster Forest?"

"You don't need to worry about matters there. We will summon all Golden Core Cultivators to drive away the Demonic Beasts, and various Nascent Soul Seniors will step in to set up formations."

Celestial Master Zhang's words were very decisive. After all, they couldn't let Ye Qingxuan handle everything, otherwise it would make them look completely useless.

"Alright, Master, Seniors, then I will go into seclusion." Ye Qingxuan shook his head, thinking he would be able to have a big fight.

At this moment, a Disciple came to report, "Sect Head Junior Martial Uncle, Seniors, people from the country have arrived, and it's because of those foreign races."

"Hmm? The country moves quite fast. Invite them in quickly." Master Yuanxin and Celestial Master Zhang were not surprised at all.

The visitors were the elite team from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and the leader was Ambassador Wang, who was known as a jade-like gentleman.

"Fellow Daoists, I've heard much about you."

How should I put it, as expected of someone doing this job, his tone and smile were completely flawless, making people feel like a spring breeze was brushing against them.

Anyway, Ye Qingxuan doubted he could ever learn that in his lifetime; he preferred to speak with his fists. After all, using fists was much faster than using brains.

"Daoist Ye, I've finally met you. You look much more handsome in person than in the videos. My daughter is your die-hard fan."

"... Layman Wang flatters me too much. Please give this jade talisman to your daughter; it can save her life at a critical moment." After hesitating for a long time, Ye Qingxuan spat out a few words and presented a jade talisman.

"Daoist Ye, Captain Gao has already reported on the matter of Dragon Island. However, is there really no problem with such a coercive approach?"

Ambassador Wang accepted it without hesitation. Daoist Ye was one of their own, after all. Besides, who would ever think they had too many life-saving items? He then proceeded to ask about the issue of Dragon Island.

"The living beings in that world have always respected the strong, and the strong dictate everything. As long as we are stronger than them, that is enough. You can send people to teach them benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom, and trustworthiness. If they don't want to learn, you can tell this poor Daoist, my human emperor banner—"

"Alright, alright, hurry up and go into seclusion, don't stay here and be an eyesore." Seeing Ye Qingxuan's murderous expression, Master Yuanxin urged him to leave quickly.

"..." Obviously, Ambassador Wang also knew what kind of thing the human emperor banner was. During this period, he hadn't skimped on cramming knowledge about the cultivation world.

Ye Qingxuan opened his mouth, wanting to say something else, when suddenly the messaging jade talisman at Master Yuanxin's waist lit up.

Master Yuanxin picked up the jade talisman. There were two messages. Upon opening them, it was a transmission from the Old Ancestor of the Qingcheng Sect.

"Fellow Daoist Yuanxin, the matter with the Dwarf Race has been resolved. They are just a group of those online-described... tech geeks? The Fellow Daoist from the Tiangong Pavilion just casually showed a hand, and they immediately wanted to kneel and acknowledge them as Masters. You can send people over to connect."

"The Dwarf Race has been resolved, Ambassador Wang can send people over," Master Yuanxin said to the foreign affairs elite team.

"I will send you over." Sect Head Zhao of the Qingcheng Sect stood up.

"In that case, sorry to trouble Sect Head Zhao." Ambassador Wang also knew these Sect Heads. Ever since universal cultivation began, it was inevitable to deal with these Sect Heads, and Ambassador Wang had long memorized some of their basic information.

Sect Head Zhao took a few diplomats and flew toward the Dwarf Race.

As for the other message, it was sent by Medicine King Sun, the Old Ancestor of Yaowang Valley. It seemed they had run into trouble. Yaowang Valley was the lineage of Sun Simiao and also belonged to the Daoist sect.

"Fellow Daoist Yuanxin, this Elf Race is truly impervious to reason. If this goes on, I'm afraid I won't be able to hold back Fellow Daoist Gu Xiao! Do you think you can invite Daoist Qingxuan to come and assist?"

Medicine King Sun's anxious tone seemed to have reached a dead end.

Gu Xiao is a Nascent Soul Old Ancestor of the Shenxiao Sect, and he is universally recognized as the number one in thunder magic in the current cultivation world. Even the current Ye Qingxuan cannot compare to him.

The reason the Shenxiao Sect has been able to stand tall without falling is precisely because of its peerless thunder magic techniques.

Moreover, those who Cultivate thunder magic often share a common trait—an exceptionally violent temper, prone to flying into a thunderous rage at the slightest provocation.

At this very moment, everyone present clearly heard these words. Ye Qingxuan's expression instantly turned extremely gloomy, and he let out a cold snort, saying: "You are given face but refuse to want it!"

Before his voice had even faded, his figure flashed, and in the blink of an eye, he turned into a dazzling sword light, speeding away like a shooting star and disappearing into the horizon in the blink of an eye.

Seeing this scene, everyone was dumbfounded and at a loss for a moment.

Just as everyone was at a complete loss, Zhenyi on the side suddenly shouted loudly: "Master Yuanxin, why aren't you chasing after him quickly! If you're late, I'm afraid the entire Elf Race will be gone!"

Master Yuanxin's heart trembled violently, and he secretly cried out that it was bad. Not daring to delay in the slightest, he immediately executed his unique escaping technique, closely following behind Ye Qingxuan and speeding away into the distance...

"This, Fellow Daoists, what has happened?" Ambassador Wang asked, somewhat surprised.

"I will take you there, and I'll explain when we arrive." Daoist Zhending had a helpless expression on his face. He released a flying boat Magical Artifact, waved his hand to bring the foreign affairs elite team along, and galloped toward the direction of the Elf Race.

Everyone present was completely dumbfounded—what just happened? Only Zhenyi and Zhenning had melancholic expressions.

"You all do not understand Qingxuan. He grew up right under our eyes since he was a child. He is extraordinarily talented, and his Comprehension Ability is even unprecedented through the ages. But as for this Heart-Nature..." Daoist Zhenyi trailed off.

Zhenning picked up the conversation:

"In his bones, he carries indifference and apathy toward life. He is a bit better to his own people, but toward alien races, he is utterly ruthless and merciless. We originally thought that if he continued like this, he would be plagued by a Heart Demon."

"However, Qingxuan scoffs at the Heart Demon. He believes that what can trigger negative emotions and thus cause people to degenerate and suffer Qi Deviation is merely obsession."

"Without obsession, there is no Heart Demon. Whoever goes against my heart is a devil. Since they are devils, they shall be beheaded!"

Zhenyi explained with a strange expression.

When everyone heard this philosophy, goodness knows how much they doubted their view of life.

"So arrogant?! But Ye Qingxuan has the capital to be arrogant. Then what do the likes of us, who have meticulously polished our Heart-Nature and resisted Heart Demons with all our might all these years, count for?"

"So, Qingxuan is now... acting according to his heart?" Celestial Master Zhang also wore an absurd expression.

"That's right, now only Master Yuanxin and Qingling can persuade him." Zhenning laughed as he spoke.

'That silly boy Qingxuan still doesn't understand his feelings for Qingling, just wishfully thinking it's the camaraderie between fellow apprentices. But has that boy ever listened to what Qingming and Qingyun said?'

"But Fellow Daoist, those are left and right just a group of alien races, are they that important?" As soon as the Wudang Sect Head said these words, he was rebuffed back by Celestial Master Zhang.

"No, Old Daoist Wang, have you cultivated yourself to stupidity? Karma!! Do you not know how strong the Immortal Ascension tribulation will be if you excessively slaughter living beings without Karma? Or were all the classics of your Wudang burned?"

"..." Fine, he had forgotten about this matter. Recently, he really had cultivated himself into a fool.

Over at the Elf Race side

Master Yuanxin and Daoist Zhending arrived one after the other. From afar, they saw Ye Qingxuan's thousand-foot Dharmic Form standing in the Void Realm, the human emperor banner fluttering in the wind behind him, and a giant palm that blotted out the sun pressing down toward the Elf Race.

This was the first time the members of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs watched Ye Qingxuan make a move up close. With that mighty momentum and oppressive feeling, if Daoist Zhending hadn't blocked it from the side, they probably would have passed out.

The members of the Elf Race trembled under the giant palm. They recognized Ye Qingxuan as that unknown deity from before.

Gu Xiao, the Old Ancestor of the Shenxiao Sect, and Medicine King Sun beside him sucked in a breath through their teeth. Why hadn't they realized before that Ye Qingxuan had such a massive Killing Intent?

If they had known earlier, they might as well have let Gu Xiao strike them with heavenly lightning; at least they could have left an intact corpse, right?

They didn't think about it—someone who could refine the human emperor banner to swallow a world, coupled with his devil-like behavior toward Dragon Island not long ago, could he possibly have a good temper?

"Qingxuan, stop!!" Master Yuanxin's resounding voice echoed across the heaven and earth. Hearing his Master's words, Ye Qingxuan had no choice but to stop with an unwilling expression on his face.

Ye Qingxuan dismissed the Five Thunder Palm, but he did not put away his Dharmic Form and the human emperor banner, looking down at the trembling Elf Race below.

"Did this poor Daoist give you too much face!!"
