At this moment, the entire space seemed to be frozen, like an extremely mystical painting. Chen Yuan, sitting cross-legged in the void, coupled with the golden pill blooming above, looked as if he were seeking a divine elixir.

Celestial Pill! Celestial Pill!

Today, Chen Yuan officially entered the Celestial Pill realm, reaching the final step of the Pill Realm, only a step away from becoming a giant in the martial world.

The golden True Pill emanated an extremely terrifying power, faintly merging with the heavens and earth, like a Nine Revolutions Golden Pill condensed by the power of the heavens and earth!

Celestial Pill, as the name suggests, is a divine pill formed by a martial artist comprehending the meaning of the heavens and earth, combining their own power with the power of the heavens and earth.

And breaking through this most difficult hurdle in the Pill Realm would bring Chen Yuan immense power, making the celestial power he controlled with each move even stronger!

Looking at the Celestial Pill suspended in the void, Chen Yuan's lips curled into a smile. Then, with a thought, the hundreds of acupoints on his body opened, and a powerful suction force emerged.

The golden True Pill in the void then restrained its light and was swallowed by Chen Yuan.

Inside his dantian, the power of the Celestial Pill instantly surged through Chen Yuan's body, and his aura rose steadily!

Powerful! Terrifying!

This was Chen Yuan's most direct feeling right now. He gazed at the distant Sunken Blood Lake and casually pointed a finger. Instantly, a ray of light exploded in the lake, stirring up the entire lake.

The surrounding heaven and earth's primordial energy was even more intimate with him. The power he could now control far exceeded that of his previous Solid Pill realm!

Now he understood the terror of the Celestial Pill realm and knew why Celestial Pill was the most powerful realm in the Pill Realm, and why it could have a crushing advantage over lower-level Solid and Void Pill martial artists.

All of this lay in the control of the power of heaven and earth.

If Void and Solid Pills were just a preliminary control of heaven and earth's primordial energy, then Celestial Pill experts who had comprehended the meaning of heaven and earth had completely controlled the surrounding heaven and earth's primordial energy.

There was absolutely no comparison!

Although his lifespan had not increased, his strength had become even more terrifying.

And he was one step closer to the peak of martial arts!

Once he shattered the pill and transformed into a deity, Chen Yuan's lifespan would also increase dramatically, making him a top figure in the martial world. These things... were not far away.

Breaking through to the Celestial Pill realm gave Chen Yuan many insights. In fact, what made him powerful was not just his strength. The True Intent he had condensed was even more terrifying. Fist Intent, Saber Intent – all of these could be collectively called Chen Yuan's Martial Dao True Intent.

One punch, and mountains quake!

He pondered, if his current state of mind was compared to Jiang He before he broke through, then... which one was stronger?

This question was very interesting. Chen Yuan had seen Jiang He take action. Comparing them, he felt that he would definitely not lose. As for whether he could win, it would depend on whether Jiang He would use the methods of the Transformation Yang realm.

Moro's figure slowly appeared in front of Chen Yuan, his hands clasped together as he smiled:

"Congratulations, Shura Daoyou, on breaking through to the Celestial Pill realm!"

"Senior!"

Chen Yuan solemnly cupped his fists in salute.

......

......

Chen Yuan, who had successfully broken through, did not rush to leave immediately. In fact, until now, he still had plenty of time. Under Moro's guidance,

He spent another day near the Sunken Blood Lake, consolidating his cultivation before officially setting off.

During the recuperation process, Chen Yuan also measured his own strength. He estimated that, based on what he knew and his own strength,

He could definitely rival the top three experts on the Wind and Cloud Ranking.

With no Transformation Yang True Person around, he feared no one.

Even if a Transformation Yang True Person tried to intercept and kill him, even without using the heroic spirits in the Chen Family's Battle Banner and Senior Moro, he was confident that he could save his life.

Even escape unscathed!

Don't think this was simple. In fact, there were only a few Pill Realm Grandmasters who could escape unscathed from a Transformation Yang True Person in the entire world.

All of them were top experts on the Wind and Cloud Ranking.

At this level, one could completely dominate a prefecture.

And now, he could finally prepare for the matter of being assigned to an external location. Now, time was very precious to him. If he wanted to seize the opportunity when the world was in chaos in the future, he had to plan his territory early.

With the Dao Divine Palace as his support, he was also confident that he could defend his own power.

And the place he had planned for himself was the Qing and Shu prefectures. At least he had a certain foundation here, but he could not completely determine whether he would be sealed here.

Originally, he had wondered whether he should take this opportunity to kill the Shu Prefecture Gold Envoy, but after careful consideration, he finally gave up.

The imperial court was not stupid. If the Shu Prefecture Gold Envoy fell just after he broke through, creating a gap for him, it would inevitably attract the attention of the higher-ups to him.

At least he had to wait some time, and then... ask someone else from the Dao Divine Palace to take action.

This was the hidden plan in Chen Yuan's heart.

Leaving the Sunken Blood Lake, Chen Yuan went straight to the direction of Qing Prefecture City, not returning to Chen Family Village. His uncle had already made it clear that he had no ability to help him anymore.

Since that was the case, he could only wait until later to talk about repayment.

The Sunken Blood Lake was not far from Tangshan Prefecture. Chen Yuan decided to return the way he had come. As for reminiscing, there was no need for that.

However, although he didn't want to, he still unexpectedly met an old acquaintance while passing through Tangshan Prefecture.

Yue Shan, and... the little beggar Shi Yi he had met in Changshan Prefecture before.

He had listened to Chen Yuan's words, overcome countless difficulties, arrived at Tangshan Prefecture, and successfully followed Yue Shan to work. In fact, Chen Yuan had inquired about this matter the last time he passed through Tangshan.

It was just that he had not summoned Shi Yi. He didn't expect to meet him again by chance.

After thinking about it, Chen Yuan decided to show himself.

At this moment, Yue Shan was pointing out Shi Yi's cultivation in a mountain forest, telling him his mistakes and giving him guidance. He was also holding a thin bamboo stick in his hand, constantly whipping him and scolding:

"Boy, with such little ability, you want to become an adult's disciple?"

"Junior..."

Shi Yi was about to retort when suddenly a familiar voice entered the ears of the two of them.

"Yue Shan."

"Who is it?"

The vigilant Yue Shan suddenly turned around. When he saw who it was, the vigilance in his eyes gradually dissipated, replaced by joy. He quickly knelt on one knee:

"This subordinate pays respects to the Lord!"

Shi Yi also quickly knelt on the ground and said in a deep voice:

"Disciple Shi Yi pays respects to Master!"

Although Chen Yuan had once ordered Shi Yi not to call him Master and that he would only be qualified when he reached the Pill Realm, Shi Yi didn't care so much. He would first establish the title.

After arriving at Tangshan Prefecture, he learned who the noble person with the surname Chen he had met in Changshan was.

Chen Yuan!

Demon Blade Chen Yuan!

Demon Blade Chen Yuan who shook the martial world!

He was definitely the top figure he looked up to. Compared to him, the so-called martial arts experts he had thought of in Changshan Prefecture were nothing at all.

They were just superficial.

Most importantly, Chen Yuan was respected by everyone in Tangshan.

Such a powerful person with power naturally made him yearn for him.

Afterwards, after finding Yue Shan through some methods, he had intentionally or unintentionally revealed that he was Chen Yuan's nominal disciple, but he was busy with official duties and had no time to teach him, so he came to Tangshan to follow Yue Shan to cultivate.

He had once promised him that when he formed a True Pill, he would accept him as his direct disciple.

This sentence was not considered a lie, because Chen Yuan had indeed said such words before. However, the matter of being a nominal disciple and not having time to teach him was just a little trick he, as a beggar, had used.

Sure enough, when he revealed this point, the people of the Tangshan Prefecture Sky Patrol Division looked at him differently. Although Yue Shan did not think that his Lord would accept a disciple,

But after thinking about it, he still kept him by his side to teach him, and he was even stricter.

Later, a distinguished Madam had summoned him, claiming to be the Master's Madam, and asked him about what he had said before. Faced with such a person, Little Stone naturally did not dare to deceive him like he had deceived others.

He directly told her everything that had happened at that time.

Madam Xu did not blame him and rewarded him with some things before letting him go. From then on, he had been following Yue Shan to cultivate, and he had officially embarked on the path of martial arts.

During the time they spent together day and night, Shi Yi called Yue Shan Uncle Yue and learned about some of Chen Yuan's past in Nanling Prefecture. He couldn't help but admire and yearn for him even more.

And he secretly vowed in his heart that one day he would catch up with Master Chen Yuan's footsteps.

"Get up."

With a thought from Chen Yuan, an invisible force lifted the two of them up.

Yue Shan looked at the familiar Chen Yuan, but also felt a sense of unfamiliarity. At the same time, he also felt an unfathomable aura, and he couldn't help but realize that his Lord was even more terrifying!

"How did the Lord come to this place?" Yue Shan asked with his hands cupped.

"I just happened to be passing by and saw that it was you, so I came down to take a look."

Chen Yuan smiled.

The last time he came, he was in a hurry, so he didn't meet too many people. These people didn't know that he had ever been to Tangshan Prefecture.

"Not bad, your cultivation has become stronger again."

Chen Yuan praised him with encouragement.

Compared to before, Yue Shan's cultivation had actually broken through to the Profound Realm. One could imagine how hard he had worked since he no longer followed Chen Yuan.

Of course, the resources he had obtained and his own talent could not be ignored.

"This subordinate only hopes to be able to continue following the Lord in the future."

Yue Shan quickly stated his position.

"There will be opportunities."

"Master."

Shi Yi stood respectfully to the side.

"Not bad, cultivate well. When you meet my requirements, I will naturally take you in as my disciple." Since this kid had chosen to come to Tangshan, then he would naturally not break his word.

Just a disciple was nothing.

"Yes, Disciple will definitely cultivate hard and live up to Master's expectations." Shi Yi was filled with excitement.

During the conversation, Chen Yuan also learned about some of Yue Shan's recent situation, which was very good. He had great power in Tangshan Prefecture and controlled a significant force.

At the same time, he was also qualified to meet Madam Xu. At least here, no one dared to underestimate him.

Even Han Yu and Du Ming treated Yue Shan almost as equals when they saw him.

In addition to Yue Shan, people like Mo Donghe, Yan Qing, and the Yunjiang Four Ghosts were also like this. Although their cultivation was only at the Condensing Gang realm, their status was not low.

Everyone knew that they had been Chen Yuan's close subordinates and had followed him for a long time. They were absolutely trusted. How could anyone dare to make them unhappy?

They still understood the principle of a seventh-rank official in front of the Prime Minister's gate.

Even Madam Xu never lacked a share of their gifts during festivals, which could be said to be a position of great respect.

Of course, Yue Shan and the others were also very sensible. They never used their veteran status to be arrogant and domineering. Instead, they were very low-key and obeyed Han Yu and the others' orders.

They never hesitated to use their veteran status when it was needed.

Chen Yuan still valued and trusted these former subordinates relatively highly. Although their cultivation had been far surpassed by him, and they were not even qualified to be guards, this was not their fault.

In fact, they had been working very hard to catch up.

However, the gap was getting bigger and bigger until they could no longer see his figure.

However, their aptitude was still qualified. With ample resources to support their cultivation, there was no major problem in at least reaching the Profound Realm. As for whether they could take advantage of the situation to form a Pill and enjoy a lifespan of one hundred and eighty years, it would depend on their own opportunities.

No one could help them with this.

After pointing out some things about cultivation to Yue Shan, Chen Yuan did not stay any longer and directly left through the air.

Looking at Chen Yuan's departing figure, Yue Shan sighed:

"The gap is getting bigger again!"

This sentence was what Yue Shan, Mo Donghe, and the others often said when they were drinking and had nothing to do. Although they were far away in Tangshan, they also knew that their Lord had once created a great reputation in the capital.

He was definitely the kind that shook the capital.

This also made them feel a little unreal.

Who would have thought that the little constable they had seen in Ping'an County back then would soar into the sky in just a few years, making it impossible for them to even look up to him!

They had once said that the first time they saw Chen Yuan was probably when they were chasing down the Unborn Religion demons under the leadership of Lord Zhang, in front of the Huang family's gate!

"Boy, work hard at your cultivation. When you form a Pill, the Lord will probably have become the strongest person in the world. If you have such a Master, you can roam the world!"

Yue Shan said softly.

Shi Yi nodded firmly:

"Uncle Yue, I will. Then I'll take care of you."

"Okay, I'll see if you can reach that day."

"Don't worry."

"Alright, continue practicing. I have limited time. You come by yourself tomorrow."

"Uncle Yue, are you going to the brothel again?"

"What do you know, kid? I'm harmonizing Yin and Yang. The Tao is one Yin and one Yang. These are the words the Lord once said."

"Really?"

Shi Yi didn't quite believe it. He had never heard of the Master going to brothels. On the other hand, he had some strange hobbies, which were different from others.

"Am I lying to you?"

"Then I..."

"Don't even think about it. You're just a virgin chicken, so you should cultivate well. Wait until you grow up before you talk about it. Otherwise, that gaping mouth will eat you."

"Then why doesn't it eat you?"

"Because I've grown up. They can't eat me!"

......

......

After saying goodbye to Yue Shan, Chen Yuan headed all the way towards Qing Prefecture City. He didn't see Madam Xu again, otherwise it would inevitably delay him some more time.

What needed to be said had already been said before, and what needed to be given had been given to her completely.

In short, there was no need to stay.

Not only Tangshan, but even when passing through Nanling Prefecture, Chen Yuan did not stay. He sped all the way, like a shooting star streaking across the sky straight to Qing Prefecture City.

The journey was also very peaceful. Nothing happened, and no ignorant fellows came forward to seek death. Nor did any of the enemies he had expected come out to attack him.

Originally, according to his guess, he already had the strength to kill Yama of the Seven Kills Hall, so he should be feared even more, and more powerful enemies should have jumped out.

But their disappearance was really a bit unexpected for him.

However, he did not relax his vigilance. Perhaps the enemy would attack him at an unexpected time.

In addition, Chen Yuan had also inquired about the affairs of Yama of the Seven Kills Hall. But it was very obvious that no news had leaked out, and no news about the Sunken Blood Lake was circulating in the martial world.

Obviously, this matter had not spread.

Perhaps the Seven Kills Hall also felt it was disgraceful...

Of course, this was more suitable for Chen Yuan. He didn't want to become famous in the martial world again. His talent was already known to everyone, so there was no need to deepen the impression.

Keeping a low profile was the way to go. It was just a pity that many things before were not what he wanted them to be.

Although he didn't find out anything about himself, Chen Yuan also learned something interesting. It was said that in the East Sea, a group of Dongying martial artists from three major families were killed by a passing Central Plains expert.

Among them, there were many Pill Realm Grandmasters.

This made the Dongying three major families furious, and they declared that they would make that person pay the price. The consequence of this matter was that the expert was furious and killed many masters of the three major families.

In just a few days, more than a hundred Japanese slaves died in the Central Plains, and the three major families also suffered heavy losses. Many planned forces were destroyed.

For a time, it caused quite a stir in the martial world.

However, this had nothing to do with Chen Yuan. He only paid attention to it for a while and then stopped paying attention.

After spending two days, Chen Yuan rushed to Qing Prefecture and secretly met Jiang He once. The two talked a lot, and Chen Yuan also told him about his breakthrough.

But Jiang He did not show any surprise, as if he had already expected it.

After a conversation about cultivation matters, Chen Yuan also told Jiang He his thoughts, saying that he had now broken through to the Celestial Pill realm and was qualified to be assigned to an external location as a Gold Envoy.

Although his qualifications were a little less, his merits were not low.

Just the last time he saved face for the imperial court in the capital and shattered the Dongying martial artists' Sumeru Illusion was a great achievement. There was no need to worry too much about this aspect.

Jiang He asked Chen Yuan where he wanted to go.

Chen Yuan pointed to Shu Prefecture and expressed his attitude.

This place was located south of Qing Prefecture, far away from the capital. At the same time, this place was one of the few fertile lands with abundant resources, which could quickly increase strength. If one day the world changed drastically, this place could face Qing Prefecture.

With the strength of the Dao Divine Palace, it could at least defend one place, which was currently the best location.

Jiang He looked at the place Chen Yuan pointed out and was silent for a long time. Finally, he also expressed his approval, but he also told Chen Yuan not to be too impatient. At least not in the short term.

He would help plan this matter. After Chen Yuan's breakthrough had passed, he would kill the Shu Prefecture Gold Envoy and help him take the position of Shu Prefecture Gold Envoy!

Chen Yuan expressed his gratitude. Afterwards, the two had a cordial and friendly meeting....
