Chapter 148: The Great Era of the Future

Inside the stone pavilion, Ye Qingxuan poured a cup of tea for Liu Tai'an.

Now that he saw Liu Tai'an had arrived, Ye Qingxuan stopped beating around the bush and asked directly:

"Tai'an, how does the sect plan to arrange matters regarding the Nuclear Explosion Pill and me?"

Hearing this, Liu Tai'an recalled the words his Master had spoken to him.

After a moment of silence, Liu Tai'an's expression hardened, and he said:

"The Nuclear Explosion Pill was developed by Senior Brother, so it naturally belongs to Senior Brother."

"However, due to the special effects of the Spirit-Cleansing Nuclear Explosion Pill, the formula for the Nuclear Explosion Pill must be sold to the Di-Xuan Realm Alliance."

At this point, Liu Tai'an took a deep breath, looked at Ye Qingxuan, and said firmly:

"Junior Brother, since you have come, what do you wish to ask Senior Brother? The sect is ready to fight for your interests within the Di-Xuan Realm Alliance on your behalf."

As soon as Liu Tai'an finished speaking, far away at the peak of Xuantian Peak, Cen Zhe cursed impatiently: "You brat, is this how you obey your Master's orders?"

After hesitating for a moment, Cen Zhe ultimately chose not to intervene in all of this.

In fact, Cen Zhe had sent Liu Tai'an here with exactly this intention.

However, the prerequisite for this was that Ye Qingxuan must pass Xuantian Sect's assessment; only then would the sect spare no effort to protect Ye Qingxuan's interests.

This assessment was simply to let Ye Qingxuan choose for himself whether he was willing to hand over the formula and allow the sect to handle all matters regarding the formula on his behalf.

If Ye Qingxuan was willing to trust the sect, Xuantian Sect would speak up for him and defend his interests within the Di-Xuan Realm Alliance.

If Ye Qingxuan was unwilling to trust the sect and did not want to hand over the formula for the sect to handle completely.

Then Xuantian Sect would only ensure Ye Qingxuan's safety; regarding the profits from the Nuclear Explosion Pill outside the sect, Xuantian Sect would not interfere further.

It could be said that if Ye Qingxuan were not a disciple of Xuantian Sect.

A mere Nuclear Explosion Pill would have long been cracked by other powerful figures in the Di-Xuan Realm.

Whether the Di-Xuan Realm Alliance was willing to purchase the formula for the Nuclear Explosion Pill, and at what price they were willing to buy out the formula entirely.

This depended entirely on Xuantian Sect's stance.

In the world of cultivation, strength is supreme! Only the strong have the qualification to defend their own interests.

The weak can only enjoy relative fairness under the rules established by the strong.

After hearing Liu Tai'an's words, Ye Qingxuan was slightly surprised.

However, Ye Qingxuan was not foolish; looking at Liu Tai'an's expression.

Ye Qingxuan also guessed that Liu Tai'an must be hiding something unfavorable to him.

Regarding the issue of the Nuclear Explosion Pill formula, Ye Qingxuan was quite open-minded.

After pondering for a moment, Ye Qingxuan took out all the formulas for the Nuclear Explosion Pill series and handed them to Liu Tai'an, saying: "Senior Brother, my cultivation is shallow, and I am currently trapped within the Blessed Land, unable to leave the sect. I will hand the formulas over to the sect and let the sect handle everything on my behalf!"

Seeing that Ye Qingxuan was willing to voluntarily hand over the formulas, Liu Tai'an breathed a sigh of relief and respectfully accepted the formulas Ye Qingxuan handed to him.

In this way, Senior Brother had effectively passed the assessment automatically, so he was not exactly going against his Master's words.

After putting away the formulas, Liu Tai'an looked at Ye Qingxuan and said solemnly: "Senior Brother, what heavenly treasures or earthly gems do you desire? I will report it to the sect for you later."

Hearing this, seeing that Liu Tai'an persisted, it seemed this was indeed not Liu Tai'an's own idea.

So after thinking for a moment, Ye Qingxuan slowly said:

"If possible, I would like a World-Suppressing Stone or Spirit Crystals. If that is not possible, giving me some sources of spiritual veins would also suffice."

The World-Suppressing Stone is a Grade Seven heavenly treasure, and Spirit Crystals are also the currency used by cultivators at Grade Seven and above.

Ye Qingxuan was not sure if he could obtain a World-Suppressing Stone or Spirit Crystals.

If that was not possible, receiving some sources of spiritual veins would make Ye Qingxuan content.

The formula for the Nuclear Explosion Pill did not actually hold such great value.

If it were not for the Spirit-Cleansing Nuclear Explosion Pill that Ye Qingxuan accidentally created, which could clear demonic energy on a large scale.

The Di-Xuan Realm Alliance would not have gone to such great lengths to purchase the formula for the Nuclear Explosion Pill from Xuantian Sect.

Yes, they were purchasing the Nuclear Explosion Pill formula from Xuantian Sect.

The gaze of the other high-ranking officials in the Di-Xuan Realm Alliance had never fallen on Ye Qingxuan, a small Blessed Land cultivator. The reason they were purchasing the formula for the Nuclear Explosion Pill was not that the Di-Xuan Realm Alliance lacked such heavenly treasures capable of clearing demonic energy on a large scale.

It was just that, in comparison, the Spirit-Cleansing Nuclear Explosion Pill created by Ye Qingxuan offered better cost-performance and lower costs.

Precisely because of this, the high-ranking officials of the Di-Xuan Realm Alliance had taken notice of the Spirit-Cleansing Nuclear Explosion Pill.

After learning what Ye Qingxuan wanted, Liu Tai'an did not ask for the reasons, merely nodding slightly.

The two continued to chat idly for a while.

Only when the sky gradually darkened did Liu Tai'an leave this place.

After watching Liu Tai'an leave, Ye Qingxuan himself returned to the Qingxuan Blessed Land and continued to refine the components for the city.

After the two parted ways, Cen Zhe withdrew his spiritual sense and chuckled lightly: "My disciple indeed has a pure heart; not bad, not bad, hehehe."

The entanglement between Ye Qingxuan and Liu Tai'an naturally could not be hidden from Cen Zhe.

Regarding this disciple of his with astonishing talent, Cen Zhe paid close attention.

Afterwards, he thought of Ye Qingxuan again and pondered slightly:

"This boy must have great secrets and great opportunities, but his character is good, which is beneficial to Xuantian Sect. Let nature take its course!"

Ye Qingxuan's current Nascent Soul realm cultivation base naturally could not be hidden from the gaze of a Mahayana cultivator like Cen Zhe.

Long ago, he had already discovered the cultivation base Ye Qingxuan was hiding; at first, he did not pay much attention to it.

But unexpectedly, in such a short time, Ye Qingxuan not only was not dragged down by the Blessed Land, but his cultivation base had instead advanced rapidly, already breaking through to the Nascent Soul realm.

Such a thing, happening to Ye Qingxuan who originally possessed only a single spiritual root, was clearly unreasonable.

However, although he discovered that Ye Qingxuan was not simple, Cen Zhe had no intention of probing further.

Cen Zhe's Dao had long been determined; he required no excessive external forces.

As long as it was harmless to Xuantian Sect, Cen Zhe would not interfere further.

Moreover, the future Xuan Tian Sect will need enough powerful cultivators to ensure the sect's legacy endures.

"Sigh!"

Recalling the divination results of his own Grand Elder Yao Qiu, a trace of worry surfaced in Cen Zhe's eyes.

Among the Mahayana cultivators of the Xuan Tian Sect, Grand Elder Yao Qiu possessed the strongest divination ability.

In Yao Qiu's divination,

the Di Xuan Realm would welcome an unprecedented great era in the future, and also face an unprecedented crisis.

Whether the Xuan Tian Sect could stand firm amidst this great era, even Cen Zhe lacked absolute confidence.

For the future great era did not depend on cultivators of their generation, but on the younger generation of cultivators.

Cen Zhe did not worry that the future Xuan Tian Sect would lack cultivators as a backbone; this was the confidence of a hegemonic power.

What he worried about was whether the Xuan Tian Sect could produce more supreme experts amidst the great era predicted by Yao Qiu.

Cen Zhe did not ask for the Xuan Tian Sect to dominate the tides of the great era; he only asked that the sect's legacy could continue forever.

Currently, Cen Zhe saw the hope to support the Xuan Tian Sect's progress only in his disciple, Liu Tai'an.

It was not that the other disciples of the Xuan Tian Sect were unremarkable.

Rather, in the great era, the Xuan Tian Sect needed supreme experts like pillars holding up the sky to protect the sect and stabilize the world.

Thinking of this, Cen Zhe glanced toward the direction where Ye Qingxuan was located and said softly:

"I hope you can walk the path of Fortune Cultivation and bring the Xuan Tian Sect a surprise in the future!"

Having spoken, Cen Zhe waved his hand and activated the Xuan Tian Sect's supreme formation to conceal the Qingxuan Fortune Land where Ye Qingxuan was located.

From now on, except for Cen Zhe himself,

even if others saw Ye Qingxuan appearing in that area from a distance, they would only see an ordinary Ye Qingxuan, unable to perceive his actual cultivation base.
