Pursued by the Top Grade Saintess after Engagement Annulled

Chapter 613 - 609: Refining Elixirs, Studying Arrays

Not only Sun Yazhu, but the other women also looked at Xia Feng with a hint of worry.

Li Qingxue even directly shoved the elixir bottle in her hand into Xia Feng’s arms: "My cultivation is already at the True God Realm, and these elixirs are of no use to me. It would be better for my husband to absorb them."

Xia Feng was touched in his heart, but he showed a bit of helplessness on his face: "Qingxue, my cultivation in the Sword Dao is much more solid than yours. If these elixirs are useless to you, they surely won’t benefit me either."

Li Qingxue furrowed her beautiful eyebrows slightly, knowing she was simply offering a perfunctory excuse. The elixirs couldn’t possibly be useless. If they were, she wouldn’t push them on her husband.

Seeing the serious expressions on the women’s faces, clearly intent on ensuring his well-being, Xia Feng was deeply moved and began to explain.

"You really don’t need to worry. I’m not the type to ignore myself for your sake. Besides the elixirs you took, there are still so many left. I surely have a way to refine them."

Sun Yazhu’s brows were knitted into a knot, her expression becoming more tense: "Husband, those effects are too mixed, and some are even purely supplemental like Recovery Pills and Golden Healing Pills. Even if you take them, they won’t have much effect."

Xia Feng’s smile became even gentler: "I naturally have my ways. Haven’t you heard of Star Power?"

The women couldn’t discern the exact method from Xia Feng’s words. However, seeing his confident mention of Star Power, they didn’t think he was lying just to comfort them, which reassured them somewhat.

Sun Yazhu pursed her lips, whispering softly: "Husband naturally has his way, but we are also looking out for his best interests."

Seeing Xia Feng’s increasingly determined expression, unwilling to take their elixirs, Sun Yazhu could only reluctantly take back the elixir bottle in her hand.

"Forget it, our husband has his plans. We should just follow his arrangements."

Her fingers slightly tightened around the elixir bottle, turning a bit white, evidently aspiring to enhance her cultivation so as not to hold Xia Feng back in the future.

As Xia Feng’s expression grew gentler, the women withdrew their gazes and began to refine the elixirs beside him.

The millennium within the Dream Realm Pearl was but over an hour outside, and Xia Feng and the others soon finished refining this batch of elixirs.

All the women’s cultivation had made significant progress. Except for Li Qingxue and Qi Wan’Er, who had already reached the True God Realm, the others had tentatively touched the bottleneck of the True God Realm and could likely cross this threshold with more accumulation or a few more rounds of combat.

As for Xia Feng’s cultivation, the women couldn’t see through it, but they sensed it had deepened, increasing the pressure he exerted on them. It seemed his claim of having a means to absorb the elixirs’ effects wasn’t empty talk.

When they emerged from the Dream Realm Pearl, even though they’d sought a quiet cave, the sight outside shocked them.

The array that once stood outside had, unbeknownst to them, started operating again. The Great Dao of Heaven and Earth was flowing into the array like a torrent, forming a vague vortex.

Xia Feng and Li Shiqing’s eyes lit up. Ignoring the others, they rushed excitedly to the vortex, diving into studying the array’s mysteries.

Seeing their demeanor, the other women appeared surprised: "What’s happened to our husband and Shiqing Sister?"

"Is there something wrong with this array?"

Ununderstanding, the other women followed behind them, only to watch in amazement as new elixirs subtly formed within the array vortex, seemingly poised to produce a batch of Pill Beasts soon.

The women grew increasingly astonished: "Is this due to the array?"

"If so, wouldn’t guarding this place provide us with a continuous supply of elixirs?"

Sun Yazhu, seeing their excitement, stepped forward to grasp an elixir about to form into a Pill Beast, meticulously investigating its nuances.

Knowing they shouldn’t cause chaos, the others decided to spar nearby, looking for opportunities to break through the True God threshold before them.

However, Sun Yazhu quickly concluded her research, understanding the elixirs’ properties within half a cup of tea’s time.

"Although there are subtle Pill Beasts forming, the effects aren’t a product of long accumulation, and something is missing compared to the ones we’ve absorbed before. Even staying here gains no further advantage."

She released the elixir back into the vortex, gazing at Xia Feng and Li Shiqing.

"But I understand what husband and Shiqing are researching now; they’re likely interested in the array, wanting to comprehend its principles."

The women’s faces were awash with excitement. The array not only served as an Illusion and Trapping Array to confuse and ensnare others, but subtly influenced the minds of those within, already highly exquisite.

Now seeing it could act as an Energy Gathering Array to gather the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth into elixirs, if our husband comprehends the reasoning and teaches us, we could possibly modify our Ten Extremes Array.

Yet, the more formidable an array, the more research it demands, and even though Xia Feng and Li Shiqing have exceptional talent in the Great Dao of Celestial Talisman, after half a day of study, they became mentally drained, unable to fathom the operation of some lines.

Xia Feng, having deeper cultivation, managed to persist a bit longer, while Li Shiqing didn’t have as much Spiritual Power.

Li Shiqing retracted her Divine Sense with a pale face, casting an envious look at Xia Feng who was still immersed in the array talismans’ paths.

Sun Yazhu, noting her poor condition, reached out to support her: "How is it? Can you understand it?"

Li Shiqing nodded first, then shook her head, causing the others watching her to grow more tense and anxious.

"I only managed to grasp a little bit. Going deeper, there’s a subtle Spiritual Power hindering me, preventing focused study."

She sighed helplessly: "After half a day under its influence, I feel a headache, and persisting might damage my Divine Sense."

Sun Yazhu’s hand tightened, supporting Li Shiqing, then worryingly glanced at Xia Feng, who was still intensively researching, growing more anxious.
