Chapter 715: Late Nascent Soul Stage, Alchemy Emperor Secret Realm

On the day the news of Ximen Qi's death spread, Zhou Qingyu happened to be out.

Upon hearing this joyous news, she couldn't wait to share this heart-stirring good news with Wang Jianqiang.

Learning that Ximen Qi was dead, Wang Jianqiang raised an eyebrow.

This Huang Xue really acted with lightning speed; she had dealt with Ximen Qi in just one month.

Not bad.

It was even faster than he had imagined.

Afterwards, he did not continue to pay attention to this matter and continued his closed-door cultivation.

Logically speaking, Ximen Qi was one of the individuals with the top-tier aptitude among the most recent batch of New Students.

His death should have attracted the sect's attention.

Even if it wouldn't lead to any major actions, at the very least, they should have conducted a thorough investigation.

But as luck would have it.

Ximen Qi's death occurred precisely during the period when the Three Great Sects were visiting the Beast Taming Sect.

During this time.

All Beast Taming Sect disciples were focused on the clashes between the prodigies of the Three Great Sects and the prodigies of the Beast Taming Sect.

As for the upper echelons of the Beast Taming Sect, they were busy holding meetings and discussions with the leading high-level members of the Three Great Factions.

Compared to that.

The death of an Outer Sect New Student was merely a matter too small to be any smaller.

Due to various reasons.

Ximen Qi's death was quickly forgotten by everyone and failed to stir up the slightest ripple within the Beast Taming Sect.

Another month passed.

Wang Jianqiang, who was cultivating with his eyes closed, slowly opened his eyes, took out a Sound Transmission Talisman, listened for a moment, and raised an eyebrow.

Zhou Yun was looking for him?

Ever since he moved into Zhou Yun's residence, Zhou Yun had never taken the initiative to look for him.

After pondering for a moment, he got up and walked toward the Pavilion where Zhou Yun resided.

Not long after.

He entered the Pavilion and saw Zhou Yun.

"Greetings, Eldest Young Miss."

Zhou Yun nodded, "I called you here this time because there is something I want to tell you."

Wang Jianqiang's expression shifted, revealing a look of attentive listening.

After a pause in her speech, Zhou Yun continued, "In one year, the Alchemy Emperor Secret Realm will open, and the top ten ranked disciples of the Inner Sect along with all Core Disciples will enter it."

"I am ranked ninth among this batch of Inner Sect disciples, so I have also obtained a quota to enter the Alchemy Emperor Secret Realm."

"When the time comes, you shall enter with me."

Hearing Zhou Yun's words, Wang Jianqiang's expression shifted, "Eldest Young Miss, this quota for the Alchemy Emperor Secret Realm must be very precious, right? Why not save it for the Third Miss? I am merely a servant, how could I possibly have the qualifications..."

Speaking up to this point, he revealed a look of trepidation.

Seeing that Wang Jianqiang could still think of Zhou Qingyu at such a juncture, Zhou Yun couldn't help but smile, "You are indeed loyal."

As she spoke, she shook her head, "Every person entering can only bring at most one servant inside; she is an Outer Sect Disciple and is restricted by sect rules, so she cannot occupy a servant quota."

"But given my strength... if Eldest Young Miss brings me in, I fear I will only hold Eldest Young Miss back..."

A flash of hesitation crossed Wang Jianqiang's face.

Zhou Yun smiled, "I am bringing you into the Alchemy Emperor Secret Realm, but not to have you provide help in terms of combat power."

"The Alchemy Emperor Secret Realm is rich in Pills and Medicinal Herbs."

"I am not very familiar with Pills and Medicinal Herbs, and you happen to have a specialty in this area."

"Bringing you in is so that you can help me identify the various Medicinal Herbs and Pills in the Alchemy Emperor Secret Realm."

As she spoke, she flipped her palm and took out a Jade Slip, "This is some information I just compiled for you regarding the Alchemy Emperor Secret Realm."

"After you go back, take a look first and prepare yourself; when the Alchemy Emperor Secret Realm opens, I will naturally send a message to call you."

"Yes, Eldest Young Miss."

Wang Jianqiang nodded and took the Jade Slip.

Afterwards, he took his leave of Zhou Yun.

He left the Pavilion.

After returning to the Medicine Garden, Wang Jianqiang took out the Jade Slip gifted by Zhou Yun and examined it carefully.

After reviewing the information in the Jade Slip.

He already had a rough understanding of the Alchemy Emperor Secret Realm.

The so-called Alchemy Emperor Secret Realm was actually the cave-dwelling space of an Eighth-Rank High-Level Alchemist from tens of thousands of years ago.

Inside, the complete inheritance of that Eighth-Rank High-Level Alchemist was left behind.

The Alchemy Emperor Secret Realm did not belong solely to the Beast Taming Sect.

Rather, it belonged to the four top powers of Youzhou simultaneously.

It was jointly managed by the four major powers: the Beast Taming Sect, the Jade Cauldron Sect, the Sacred Palace, and the Tianlang Hall.

Each of the four powers held a fragment of the key to open the Secret Realm.

Only when the four powers gathered could the Alchemy Emperor Secret Realm be opened.

This time, the three major powers—the Jade Cauldron Sect, the Sacred Palace, and the Tianlang Hall—had all sent teams to the Beast Taming Sect, and one of their purposes was to open the Alchemy Emperor Secret Realm.

Thinking of the various opportunities that existed within the Alchemy Emperor Secret Realm, Wang Jianqiang's eyes lit up.

According to the description in the Jade Slip.

In this place of inheritance, there are many treasures.

Among them, the most precious are the Pills and various rare Medicinal Herbs.

I wonder if I can find the Medicinal Herbs that Xiaobai and Mu Lingxi can use in this Alchemy Emperor Secret Realm?

There is still one year until the Alchemy Emperor Secret Realm opens, so there is no need to worry about this matter yet.

The time that followed.

He calmed his mind and continued to cultivate and nurture the Medicinal Herbs.

Very quickly.

He had already been in the Inner Sect for ten months.

On this day.

Wang Jianqiang, who was cultivating with his eyes closed, felt his body tremble, and a more powerful aura flashed across him and vanished.

His cultivation base broke through once again, reaching the Nascent Soul Late Stage.

He pondered for a moment, took out a large amount of Nutrient Solution, and walked out of the house.

There were only two months left until the one-year deadline agreed upon with Zhou Yun, so it was time to accelerate the cultivation of the Medicinal Herbs in the Medicine Garden.

One month later.

Zhou Yun received Wang Jianqiang's message and came to the Medicine Garden.

Seeing that the Medicinal Herbs in the Medicine Garden had all fully matured, a look of joy appeared on her face.

This Wang Daniu had actually really done it, and he was a full month ahead of the agreed-upon time.

With these Medicinal Herbs, she would be able to obtain a large amount of cultivation resources.

Perhaps she could improve her strength a bit more before the Alchemy Emperor Secret Realm opened.

"Wang Daniu, you have done very well."

"According to our agreement, I will do my best to help you with your cultivation from now on."

Zhou Yun praised Wang Jianqiang with a face full of appreciation, and after harvesting all the Medicinal Herbs in the Medicine Garden, she left in a hurry.

Wang Jianqiang returned to the house and continued to cultivate.

Time passed in a flash.

On this day.

Wang Jianqiang was cultivating in the house when he suddenly received a message from Zhou Yun.

"The Alchemy Emperor Secret Realm is about to open?"

His eyes lit up, and he stood up and walked outside.

Not long after.

Wang Jianqiang arrived at the Pavilion where Zhou Yun lived.

Upon seeing Zhou Yun, his expression stirred.

Compared to when they last met, Zhou Yun's aura was much stronger.

If her Will Power had only reached the mid-level of the Sixth-Order Will Stage before, then at this moment, her Will Power had already reached the peak of the Sixth-Order Will Stage.

It was a pity.

The Sixth-Order Will Stage seemed to be the limit of Zhou Yun's talent.

With her aptitude, she was still unable to reach the Seventh-Order Will Stage and become a Core Disciple.

"Greetings, Eldest Young Miss."

After arriving in front of Zhou Yun, Wang Jianqiang bowed to her.

Zhou Yun nodded, "Follow me."

After speaking, she opened the exit to the Small Space.

After leaving the Small Space.

Wang Jianqiang followed Zhou Yun, descending the mountain all the way, and headed deeper into the Beast Taming Sect.

Soon, the two arrived at the core area of the Beast Taming Sect.

The moment they stepped into the core area.

A much denser and purer Spiritual Power rushed toward them.

Feeling the concentration of Spiritual Power in this area, Wang Jianqiang could not help but feel some emotion in his heart.

Such dense Spiritual Power.

Never mind geniuses with extraordinary talent; even if you raised a group of pigs here, they could become spirit beasts in a short time.
