In the morning, Chu Xuan arrived outside Xin Changqing's residence. He activated a sound transmission talisman.
Monts later, the door slowly creaked open. Only then did he hasten his steps and enter the house.
Xin Changqing was now a mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator. Chu Xuan guessed that he was at least at the sixth level of Nascent Soul, otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to gather Han Yiren, Gao Xuan, and others to discuss matters. Of course, from what he knew about Xin Changqing, it was also possible that the man had concealed his true power.
Inside the room, four Nascent Soul cultivators were already seated. The one at the head of the table was Xin Changqing. As for the other three, Chu Xuan quickly recognized them through Gao Xuan's mories.
Han Yiren, Luo Yan, and Yang Feixiong. They were all Nascent Soul cultivators of the Majestic Sword Sect.
When Chu Xuan entered, Luo Yan and Yang Feixiong rely glanced at him briefly and didn't pay much attention.
Xin Changqing, seeing that Chu Xuan had arrived, gave a slight nod. He spoke in a deep voice, "I've gathered you all today to inform you of the detailed situation on the Heavenly tal Battlefield."
He then began recounting the recent progress. However, the details were all about how many spiritual stone mines, tal mines, and spiritual herb gardens their side had occupied. As for the frontlines, he didn't ntion a word.
After finishing his report, Han Yiren, Luo Yan, and Yang Feixiong all showed expressions of excitent.
"If this continues, driving those demon cultivators away and taking full control of the Heavenly tal Battlefield will only be a matter of ti!"
"Yes, this is a dangerous outer battlefield. In the future, our Majestic Sword Sect will have a share of it."
"Who knows, perhaps one day we'll even retake Dawn Star and rebuild the Majestic Sword Sect!"
Chu Xuan glanced at Xin Changqing, his gaze subtle. He found that Xin Changqing was only smiling faintly and didn't say much. This likely indicated that the battle between the Samsara God Sect and the Hantian Divine Sect was particularly fierce.
At this mont, Xin Changqing suddenly spoke.
"By the way, the Fiery Cloud Tower has just seized a large spiritual stone mine near the Heaven-Three City. They need two people to remain stationed there. But the Fiery Cloud Tower doesn't have enough cultivators to spare, so they can only send one. Who would be willing to assist with the guard? According to the rules set by the Divine Sect, the cultivator stationed at the spiritual stone mine will receive a Nascent Soul early-stage puppet beast."
Han Yiren, Luo Yan, and Yang Feixiong all brightened at the ntion.
A puppet beast!
This creature only required a soul imprint to be refined for personal use. Since the puppet beast contained a soul, it could fight on its own without the need for constant control.
Having a Nascent Soul early-stage puppet beast by one's side would be like having an extra trump card. No one could resist such an enticing offer.
Luo Yan and Yang Feixiong were about to speak, but Han Yiren shot them a glance. The two, helpless, had no choice but to fall silent.
A re Nascent Soul early-stage puppet beast was nothing in Chu Xuan's eyes, but he still pretended to be ready to speak.

However, Han Yiren directly ignored him and said aloud, "Xin senior brother, Luo junior brother and Yang junior brother are both slightly weaker than I am. This task is filled with challenges, so I believe it should be entrusted to !"
Xin Changqing glanced at Han Yiren, his expression unreadable. He disliked Han Yiren's personality, but unfortunately, she had the backing of the Deity Transformation Ancestor Sect, a faction he couldn't afford to offend.
A flash of sothing unusual flickered in Xin Changqing's eyes, but he concealed it perfectly and smiled.
"Then it will be entrusted to Junior Sister Han. The person sent by Fiery Cloud Tower should be familiar to you, it's Yang Yuze."
Han Yiren's eyes brightened.
"Yang Yuze, Senior Brother? I do have past dealings with him. We'll be able to cooperate more seamlessly. We'll definitely be able to guard that large spiritual stone mine! Senior brother, you can rest assured!"
Xin Changqing nodded and tossed a storage bag towards her.
"Inside is a Nascent Soul early-stage puppet beast. It has not yet recognized a master, so it's yours."
Han Yiren eagerly caught the storage bag, her joy evident.
Xin Changqing smiled. "You three each have your own tasks. Take one each." With that, he made a gesture, and words appeared on the wall.
They were the mission orders from the Samsara God Sect. There were tasks to guard mines and herb gardens, tasks to exterminate ancient beasts like the Nether Crocodiles, and even tasks to join the frontlines and besiege the demon cultivators. There was even a bounty for assassination.
Chu Xuan casually glanced over and saw the na Shang Xingchen prominently displayed in tenth place on the bounty list. Except for him, the other nine were all Nascent Soul late-stage cultivators.
A small note appeared next to Shang Xingchen's na: "Master of poisons, expert in ambushes, handle with caution!"
Chu Xuan couldn't help but chuckle. He scanned the list and noticed that many of the tasks were quite dangerous.
Finally, he chose the task of exterminating ancient beasts. After all, he was currently Gao Xuan, a Nascent Soul first-layer cultivator, not Chu Xuan at Nascent Soul seventh-layer. Opting for a simpler task was more in line with Gao Xuan's persona.
"Dismissed."
Xin Changqing waved his hand, and the group imdiately dispersed.
Chu Xuan lifted his leg to leave, but Han Yiren's voice ca from behind.
"Gao Xuan, last ti you were lucky to stumble upon the Nether Crocodiles fighting amongst themselves. This ti, you've taken on the task of slaying ancient beasts, but luck won't favor you every ti."
Chu Xuan smiled. "Then there's no need for Senior Sister Han to worry. After all, you're the one who has to guard the large spiritual stone mine."
With that, he quickly walked away.
Han Yiren snorted coldly and turned to Yang Feixiong.
"In my absence, you'll be the one to inspect the blood crystals Gao Xuan collects. Do you understand what I an?"
Yang Feixiong sighed with a bitter smile. "Alright, Senior Sister Han, don't worry."
He watched as Han Yiren left and let out an exasperated sigh. He had no interest in bullying the weak, but he didn't want to offend Han Yiren either.
Yang Feixiong shook his head. "Junior Brother Gao, it looks like you'll have to bear with it."
...
In the following days, Chu Xuan often traveled back and forth between the Heavenly tal Battlefield and Blue Star. Every so often, Bao would awaken, and Chu Xuan would channel more Yang tal Sword Qi into its body.
At first, it could only consu ten sword qii at a ti. But gradually, Bao's body was altered by the Yang tal Sword Qi, and it could absorb more and more with each session.
One day, Chu Xuan infused the ninety-ninth streak of Yang tal Sword Qi into Bao's body, a look of satisfaction on his face.
"Now, it's up to whether it can ta all ninety-nine Yang tal Sword Qi."
At that very mont, faint golden light began to shimr from Bao's abdon. Even through its thick skin, the golden glow was vaguely visible. This showed just how terrifying the Yang tal Sword Qi was.
"Ah, it hurts... it's unbearable... Master, have I eaten sothing wrong?"
Bao rolled on the ground, clutching its stomach and wailing in pain.
"Pain is normal. This thing is spicy on both ends. If you really can't bear it, just puke it out—whether up or down, just get it out."
Chu Xuan said with a cheerful laugh. The body of the Yang tal Sword Corpse had undergone a thorough tempering by the Yang tal Sword Qi, making it incredibly strong.
From then on, it would no longer need weapons. Every part of its body could transform into a sharp Yang tal Sword!
More importantly, the Yang tal Sword Corpse could expel pure and powerful Yang tal Sword Qi from within! That was its most lethal and terrifying feature!
However, in the short term, it could only expel a limited amount of Yang tal Sword Qi—only three streaks. After expelling three, it needed to undergo a long period of rest, consuming a large amount of tal minerals, before it could expel more Yang tal Sword Qi again.
