238: The First Su Chui of Emperor Taixuan

For ten consecutive days, Su Changqing was in secluded cultivation.

“Boom!”

Accompanied by a terrifying lightning strike, Su Changqing casually dispersed the descending lightning with a single palm, a look of joy on his face.

“The Ten-Rank Puppet is complete.”

A look of joy appeared on his face.

When a Ten-Rank Puppet is successfully refined, a Lightning Tribulation will descend from heaven and earth.

However, this Lightning Tribulation was incredibly simple for Su Changqing; compared to the Lightning Tribulation he endured when he Broke Through to the Saint Realm, it was like comparing a small witch to a great one.

But this also signified the successful refinement of the Ten-Rank Puppet.

However, although the Puppet he refined was at the Ten-Rank level, it was still far inferior to the Sweeping Monk; the latter was a premium item gifted by the System, and with the countless resources he poured into it, it could ultimately rival a Late Stage Saint Realm Expert.

But this Ten-Rank Puppet before him could only rival an Early Stage Saint Realm Expert.

Moreover, because it lacked a Saint-Grade Spiritual Vein within its body, it was prone to running out of energy.

However, he could later search for some low-grade Spiritual Veins to inject into it.

Of course, while this thing could only rival an Early Stage Saint Realm Expert, if news of it spread, it would be astonishing enough.

If they could be mass-produced, it would mean batches of Saint Realm Experts, creating an extremely terrifying power.

“However, refining a Ten-Rank Puppet not only consumes a great deal of mental energy but also requires extremely precious Materials; even with the full power of the entire Sect, it would be impossible to mass-produce them.

However, refining a hundred or so would be enough.”

Su Changqing chuckled softly.

If he could refine a hundred Saint Realm Puppets, that would certainly suffice.

“From now on, you shall be called Number One.”

The Puppet nodded dully.

Su Changqing smiled slightly, then stretched his body, and subsequently refined a few more Ten-Rank Medicinal Pills.

A few days prior, his Alchemy skill had also successfully Broken Through to the Ten-Rank level, allowing him to smoothly refine Ten-Rank Medicinal Pills.

Of course, Ten-Rank Medicinal Pills would also trigger a Lightning Tribulation.

After refining Puppets and Medicinal Pills, Su Changqing continued to Cultivate.

During this period, he had been constantly switching between these three tasks.

...

At this moment, within the Tai Xuan Sect.

A group of Inner Sect Disciples gathered together, their faces showing some confusion.

“I wonder why our Sect’s Grand Formation has been activated recently, preventing everyone from going out.”

“Exactly, I heard this Ban will last for quite some time.”

“Could something major have happened?”

“I don’t know.”

“...”

Recently, the Tai Xuan Sect’s Grand Formation was activated, and the Sect gates were closed, not allowing any Disciple to enter or exit, not even Elders or Peak Masters were allowed to leave freely.

Of course, all of this was Su Changqing’s suggestion.

Now, the Ancestor Xuan was comprehending a Breakthrough to the Emperor Realm; although he had the Emperor Spirit Pill to assist him, it was still difficult, so sealing the Sect and preventing outside disturbance was very necessary.

Not only that, Su Changqing also needed a stable environment for his secluded cultivation.

“Why are you not Cultivating and discussing here?”

Upon hearing this, the Inner Sect Disciples quickly turned their heads, and seeing the person dressed in purple, they respectfully saluted.

“Greetings, Senior Brother Li!”

The person who arrived was Li Yunfei, a True Disciple of Bi Yun Peak, who previously had some conflict with Su Changqing, but with Su Changqing’s powerful rise, he not only harbored no resentment but instead became Su Changqing’s most loyal sycophant.

The two words he most frequently uttered daily were ‘Saint’, almost reciting them day and night.

“We were curious as to why the Sect’s Formation is tightly closed, not allowing entry or exit.”

Li Yunfei heard this and calmly said:

“This matter is a decision made by the Saint and the Sect Master; you do not need to overthink it, the Saint’s command will never have any problems!”

Upon hearing the words ‘Saint’, the Inner Sect Disciples’ faces couldn't help but show reverence.

“Hehe, Senior Brother Li, how is the Saint doing recently? A few days ago, the Sect Master didn’t let us search for the Saint’s whereabouts; could it be that there’s news?”

One Inner Sect Disciple mustered his courage and asked cautiously.

Li Yunfei said indifferently:

“That is natural; the Saint’s Luck is like a bell, his fortune reaching the heavens; even if all of us were to die, nothing could possibly happen to the Saint.”

“You all have recently received high-grade Medicinal Pills and countless Cultivation Techniques and martial arts; these are all gifts from the Saint; if you don’t Cultivate diligently, how can you face the Saint?”

Upon hearing this, the Inner Sect Disciples’ faces all showed surprise.

During this time, their treatment as Inner Sect Disciples had greatly improved; not only were there abundant Cultivation Techniques and martial arts within the Sect, but the supply of Medicinal Pills had also significantly increased.

They could even enjoy Seven and Eight-Rank Medicinal Pills every month.

If it were before, Inner Sect Disciples would never have been able to possess Medicinal Pills of this level.

But now, they had them!

“Senior Brother Li, we heard that your relationship with the Saint is quite extraordinary; is that… true or false?”

An Inner Sect Disciple cautiously inquired.

Upon hearing this, Li Yunfei’s back instantly straightened, and a look of self-satisfaction appeared on his face.

“You guys have good judgment; I have known the Saint for a long time, and our relationship is extraordinary; I even did things for the Saint before.

See this face? It was even slapped by the Saint; the Saint personally slapped my face with his hand, like a spring breeze, and even now, recalling it feels as fresh as ever.”

Tsk, tsk, tsk.

Thinking of the face that had been slapped by Su Changqing, Li Yunfei actually showed a hint of self-satisfaction.

He was the Tai Xuan Sect’s number one Su-flatterer!

Whatever the Saint said, he would absolutely do.

Whatever the Saint did, it was always right.

As for the Saint’s facial care for him, that was absolutely his love and care.

Did anyone else have this honor?

No!

Absolutely not!

It was unique in the Tai Xuan Sect, alright.

Upon hearing this, the Inner Sect Disciples were immediately somewhat bewildered, but then their faces showed a hint of envy.

As expected of Senior Brother Li, to have such a close connection with the Saint, and even to receive direct guidance from the Saint.

It was truly enviable.

“As expected of Senior Brother Li, we envy you.”

“Exactly, exactly, Senior Brother Li’s relationship with the Saint is so close, it truly makes others envious.”

“I wonder when we will have such an honor.”

“Exactly!”

“...”

Hearing the praises of the Inner Sect Disciples, Li Yunfei’s face was filled with smiles.

If it were boasting about something else, he might not have cared as much.

But upon hearing various things about the Saint, he was naturally incredibly excited.

“Alright, alright, all Junior Brothers, go Cultivate well, and do not let down the Saint’s earnest expectations.”

Upon hearing this, the Disciples exchanged glances, then said solemnly:

“We will certainly not let down the Saint’s expectations!”

With that, everyone eagerly departed, preparing to seclude themselves for Cultivation; during this time, they must make a Breakthrough and absolutely not lose face for the Saint.

Looking at the departing figures of the Inner Sect Disciples, Li Yunfei nodded with satisfaction:

“With the Saint here, our Tai Xuan Sect is united, so why worry about not prospering?”

He clasped his hands behind his back and walked back with a smile on his face, a thought suddenly occurring to him.

“I wonder when the Saint will slap me again; that feeling, I already miss it somewhat.”

At this moment, Su Changqing, who was in secluded cultivation, sneezed.

Who is secretly thinking about me behind my back??

...

This old subject requests some free small gifts.

Not giving?

Laughing to death, I didn’t really want them that much anyway (sunglasses crying face).
