Chapter 886: Chapter 886: Barrier Breaking Pill

Su Chengyu flew for over an hour when Lin An said, "This should be the place, we can’t fly any further, the territory of the Desert Devil Scorpion lies ahead."

The western region was dominated by three major tribal powers, the Snake Tribe of the Snake Spirit Desert, the Desert Devil Scorpion of the Magic Spirit Desert, and the Demonic Panther atop the vast Gobi.

All three tribes were alien races from other planes, enslaved in the Kunwu Realm by the Kunwu Immortal.

The Desert Devil Scorpion Clan was on par with the Snake Tribe, and occasional skirmishes would break out between the two.

"Okay."

Su Chengyu descended through the clouds and, in this deserted wilderness, found a relatively intact ancient ruin. After confirming there were no beasts or foreign tribes inside, he led Lin An in.

"This place should be safe enough," Lin An said after surveying the surroundings.

"Once I’ve set up the protective seals, I’ll start the alchemy furnace to refine the elixir so that you can restore your mana as soon as possible."

Su Chengyu laid down defensive seals outside the ruins, then brought out the alchemy furnace and all the medicinal ingredients needed for the Barrier Breaking Pill.

"This is my first time refining the Barrier Breaking Pill; it might fail, but I have plenty of each ingredient," Su Chengyu said.

"Don’t worry, just go ahead and do the alchemy, no pressure, I believe in you," Lin An reassured.

Su Chengyu flicked his fingers, flames rose beneath the alchemy furnace; he purified each ingredient one by one as he added them to the furnace, then meticulously followed the alchemy prescription to merge and condense the pill.

It might sound simple, but it was incredibly challenging to execute each step correctly. Su Chengyu had considerable experience with alchemy, but still, he failed a few times when purifying ingredients.

The difficulty of refining the Barrier Breaking Pill was indeed high, costing more of his concentration and time.

As Su Chengyu focused on alchemy, Lin An stood guard by his side. Night fell, and temperatures in the desert dropped sharply, but Su Chengyu did not rest for a moment, keen on refining the Barrier Breaking Pill as soon as possible.

"Su Chengyu, you have been at it for seven or eight hours straight, do you want to take a break?" Lin An asked.

"If all goes well, in another three or four hours, the Barrier Breaking Pill should be successfully refined. There’s no need for a break."

A night passed, and light returned to the Kunwu Realm. Su Chengyu was at the last step of alchemy merging. The Barrier Breaking Pill in the furnace had begun to take form; the final merging would allow all the medicinal powers to blend perfectly. A faint fragrance wafted from the alchemy furnace.

"It’s done!"

Su Chengyu let out a sigh of relief, gestured with his right hand, and the lid of the alchemy furnace opened with three pale red elixirs flying out.

Smelling the Barrier Breaking Pills in his hand, Su Chengyu was quite satisfied, "Not bad, three pills."

With that, he handed all the Barrier Breaking Pills to Lin An.

Lin An, visibly excited, took only one of the Barrier Breaking Pills from Su Chengyu’s palm, "I only need one; you keep the other two. They might come in handy for you in the future."

Su Chengyu knew Lin An was generous, and had it not been for the Qingming Sealing Technique, their paths would never have crossed. Thus, without any pretense, he accepted the remaining two Barrier Breaking Pills.

"Then hurry and take the elixir to break the seal. I need to rest for a while."

Refining the Barrier Breaking Pills had also tired Su Chengyu. Lin An went aside, popped the Barrier Breaking Pill into his mouth, and began to harness the pill’s power to shatter the restraints of the Qingming Sealing Technique.

The entire process went very smoothly. With the help of the Barrier Breaking Pill, the Qingming Sealing Technique was quickly breached. A formidable aura burst forth from Lin An’s body, startling Su Chengyu, who was meditating and resting nearby.

He opened his eyes and saw two pupils appear in Lin An’s eyes, both eerie and powerful.

"At last, the mission is accomplished,"

Su Chengyu also heaved a sigh of relief. Having successfully helped Lin An restore her strength, after exiting the Kunwu Realm, he would receive a reward of ten Creation Pills, which was a great deal.

The extra pupils in Lin An’s eyes gradually faded away, and her aura became restrained. With her mana restored, her entire demeanor changed as well, exuding an aura of nobility and indifference that made people respect and keep their distance.

"I am well now. Su Chengyu, thank you," Lin An said with a smile.

"You’re welcome. So, what are your plans now?" asked Su Chengyu.

"Of course, I’m going to return to Air Mulberry Valley to destroy the Qingming Demon Tree and seize the Phoenix Divine Bone. Now that you have the True Dragon Divine Bone, if I can obtain the Phoenix Divine Bone, the two of us could exchange cultivation techniques, and it’s entirely possible for us to cultivate two of the most powerful divine techniques," Lin An declared.

"Good!"

Su Chengyu was of course willing to follow Lin An for the time being. With such a top-tier powerhouse at his side, it would be difficult for anyone in the Kunwu Realm to harm him.

"First, let me see your True Dragon Divine Bone," Lin An said.

Su Chengyu hesitated. Seeing this, Lin An remarked, "What’s the matter? Worried I’ll steal yours?"

"Of course not... I just suddenly remembered, with the destruction of the Snake Tribe, can the True Dragon Divine Bone be taken out of here when the time comes?"

"Of course not! The True Dragon Divine Bone was not originally guarded by the Snake Tribe but by the Desert Devil Scorpion. After the Desert Devil Scorpion was gravely injured, the duty of guarding the True Dragon Divine Bone fell to the Snake Tribe. Guarding the True Dragon Divine Bone also comes with rewards from the Kunwu Realm, which is why there is enmity between the Desert Devil Scorpion and the Snake Tribe," Lin An explained.

"I see,"

Su Chengyu took out the True Dragon Divine Bone. He hadn’t even had a chance to examine the artifact closely himself. It was a weighty bone, inscribed with dense golden characters—the ancestral inscriptions of the Dragon Clan that contain the essence of the True Dragon Technique. Su Chengyu, who had cultivated a fragmentary version of the True Dragon Technique, felt an affinity for these characters.

After examining the True Dragon Divine Bone for a while, Lin An handed it back to Su Chengyu.

"You need to start cultivating as soon as possible. The full True Dragon Technique is extremely difficult to master, and our time is limited," Lin An reminded him.

"You’re more talented than I am. Why don’t you start cultivating first?" Su Chengyu suggested.

"Are you sure you want me to cultivate it first? If I take up too much time, you won’t have any left to cultivate the True Dragon Technique. The True Dragon Divine Bone was not easily obtained, and if you miss this chance, there won’t be another one."

Lin An was somewhat taken aback by Su Chengyu’s generosity.

"It’s fine. With your talent, you should be able to master it quickly, I believe," Su Chengyu responded.

Lin An caressed the True Dragon Divine Bone but then passed it back to Su Chengyu, saying, "Forget it, this divine bone was your find. How could I be the first to cultivate it? Let’s do this—let’s head directly to Air Mulberry Valley to obtain the Phoenix Divine Bone. Then we’ll find a safe place to cultivate together. After we’ve both succeeded, we can exchange and share our insights on cultivation. It will be helpful for both of us!"

In fact, Lin An’s proposal was exactly what Su Chengyu had in mind, but he understood the gap between his status and Lin An’s and didn’t have the audacity to suggest it first.

Now that Lin An had taken the initiative, Su Chengyu readily agreed.

"Then it’s settled. Let’s set off for Air Mulberry Valley!" exclaimed Su Chengyu!
