A Model to Publicize (That's All for Today)

A month passed quickly.

In the Spirit Control Garden, at the Golden Roc Courtyard, Qian Dafu and Ning Qianqian sat in a stone pavilion, talking about something.

"It's been a whole day, has Uncle-Master Shen still not come out?"

Ning Qianqian asked curiously.

She bought a Millennial Spirit Herb at auction, intending to offer it to Shen Long. She had been waiting at Golden Roc Courtyard for a day, but Shen Long still hadn't come out.

"I guess Uncle-Master Shen is refining pills! Let's wait patiently!"

Qian Dafu said.

Shen Long is now very famous. He has killed many Nascent Soul Realm Barbarian Race cultivators. The disciples of the Spirit Control Sect are proud of him. Other Nascent Soul Early Stage stage cultivators don't have such great achievements. They are lucky if they can escape unscathed in a one-on-one fight.

Besides his formidable strength, Shen Long's alchemy skills were also quite advanced, which made him famous far and wide.

Ning Qianqian naturally had no objections and waited patiently.

In the Alchemy Room, Shen Long sat cross-legged on a Red Prayer Mat, his eyes fixed on the Dry Sun Cauldron in front of him. A rich medicinal fragrance filled the entire Alchemy Room. A Sound Transmission Talisman floated in mid-air, but Shen Long ignored it.

After a while, Shen Long changed his magic technique, put away the Green Lotus True Flame, opened the cauldron lid, and stepped forward to take a look. Inside the cauldron were twenty-four golden pills, which were Golden Soul Pill, each of which was High-Grade Medicinal Pill.

After refining the Dry Sun Cauldron, Shen Long started refining pills. He first refined a batch of Blood Mushroom Pill, which were completed in three days.

With the Fourth-Order Spirit Flame and the Dry Sun Cauldron, Shen Long's alchemy efficiency greatly improved. The only drawback was that he failed to refine Supreme Pill.

Shen Long was not discouraged. If Fourth-Order Spirit Flame combined with the Dry Sun Cauldron could produce Supreme Pill, then the Alchemist of Medicine King Valley would have already produced Supreme Pill long ago.

He put away the Golden Soul Pill, flicked his finger, and a beam of red light flew out, striking the Sound Transmission Talisman. The Sound Transmission Talisman spontaneously combusted, and Qian Dafu's voice came through. "Uncle-Master Shen, this disciple has collected a Demon Core from a fourth-tier Spirit-Tracking Beast."

Shen Long put away the Dry Sun Cauldron and strode out.

He went outside and saw Qian Dafu and Ning Qianqian.

"Uncle-Master Shen, you've emerged from seclusion. This is the Demon Core of a fourth-tier Spirit-Tracking Beast, which I purchased at Underground Auction."

Qian Dafu took out a white jade box and handed it to Shen Long.

"This disciple also purchased a Millennial Spirit Herb to offer to Uncle-Master Shen for alchemy."

Ning Qianqian took out a golden jade box and handed it to Shen Long.

"Are there so many good things at the Auction?"

Shen Long asked casually.

"Another Spirit Treasure appeared, but the owner wanted to exchange it for a fourth-tier Thunder-Absorbing Bead or Thunder-Guiding Bead, and the attempt failed."

Qian Dafu said.

Shen Long put away the two jade boxes and asked, "Has anyone been looking for me lately?"

"Many seniors wish to visit you. Senior Lin Qing of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect sent someone to say that you should contact him after you emerge from seclusion."

Qian Dafu said.

Shen Long nodded, took out two Cyan Porcelain Bottle, handed them to them, and said, "These two bottles of pills are for you; you should be able to use them."

"Thank you, Uncle-Master Shen."

Qian Dafu and Ning Qianqian bowed deeply, their expressions filled with excitement.

Shen Long gave them a few instructions and then dismissed them.

He took out a Communication Disk that was flashing red light, cast a spell, and said, "Fellow Daoist Lin, are you alright?"

"My life is not in danger, but my wife has been murdered. This is an irreconcilable hatred."

Lin Qing's tone was weak, and she looked like she had lost all her energy.

"Madam Lin has been murdered? What exactly happened?"

Shen Long pressed for an answer.

He wasn't concerned about Xu Mei's life or death, but rather that Xu Mei's Nascent Soul had been captured by the Barbarian Race cultivators, exposing Shen Long's true identity.

Lin Qing briefly recounted what had happened. He and Xu Mei fled together, only to be hunted down by Nascent Soul Middle Stage cultivator. They were no match for him; Xu Mei was killed, and the Nascent Soul cultivator self-destructed to cover Lin Qing's escape.

"Fellow Daoist Lin, as long as the green hills remain, there will always be firewood. There will be opportunities. The physical bodies of Barbarian Race cultivators are too powerful. Without Spirit Treasure, it will be very difficult for you to kill them."

Shen Long comforted him.

"I understand, Fellow Daoist Shen. How are you?"

Lin Qing asked.

Shen Long briefly recounted how he escaped, omitting the details of killing Gu Yu.

"It's good to have Mutated Spirit Insect. If we escape with you, we might be able to get away unscathed."

Lin Qing sighed.

"It's hard to say what will happen, but thankfully we're back alive."

Shen Long said in a relieved tone.

"Yes! I heard that another team was completely wiped out. They probably kicked a hornet's nest. They went into the heart of the Barbarian Race territory to cause trouble, which was already very dangerous."

Lin Qing said.

After chatting for fifteen minutes, Shen Long put away the Communication Disk.

He went outside, but before he had gone far, Qian Dafu came over and reported, "Uncle-Master Shen, Senior Lu's disciple informed me that he wants you, Aunt Du, and Uncle Lin to go to the Barbarian-Resisting Hall to discuss important matters."

"Understood, go and inform Master and Senior Sister Du."

Shen Long gave the order.

Qian Dafu acknowledged the order and left.

Shen Long and his two companions arrived at the Barbarian-Resisting Hall, where more than fifty Nascent Soul Cultivator had gathered. Many of them recognized Shen Long Shen Long and greeted him.

Shen Long did not delay and responded to everyone.

"Uncle Mo and Senior Qi have arrived."

Lu Qingshan's loud voice rang out.

Upon hearing this, the cultivators present all stopped talking and their expressions became solemn.

Mo Wuya and Qi Xiao strode in, with Lu Qingshan following behind them.

Mo Wuya and Qi Xiao walked to the front of the group of cultivators, their faces solemn.

"Greetings, Senior Mo and Senior Qi."

Shen Long and the others bowed respectfully.

"In this battle, many young comrades fought bravely and perished. We will provide compensation for these young comrades. Some young comrades performed exceptionally well. Shen Long, step forward."

Mo Wuya said.

Shen Long responded and came out.

"Little Friend Shen fought bravely, slaying many Nascent Soul Cultivator. You are the one who killed the most Nascent Soul Cultivator in this great battle. As a reward, you are welcome to choose a Spirit Treasure!"

Mo Wuya said.

"Senior Mo, in this great battle, it was thanks to Fellow Daoists Lu and Fellow Daoist Han that the Barbarian Race were held back. It was only through the joint efforts of Senior Sister Du that we were able to kill so many enemies. This is by no means my achievement alone, and I dare not accept any reward."

Shen Long said seriously.

He was telling the truth; most of the enemies he killed were at the Nascent Soul Early Stage. He killed Gu Yu but did not report it.

If it weren't for Lu Qingshan, Han Lun, Wang Yinghu, Su Susu, and others holding off the Barbarian Race experts, Shen Long wouldn't have been able to achieve such great results against Barbarian Race.

Besides, the tallest tree in the Lin Feng, and Shen Long didn't want to be envied by others.

"Let's keep things separate. You killed several Nascent Soul Cultivator, and that's what you deserve. We've said before that we would reward you according to your merits, and now is the time to do so."

Qi Xiao said in a deep voice.

They rewarded Shen Long handsomely as a role model, so that other Nascent Soul Cultivator would fight bravely in the next major battle.

"Since Senior Qi has said so, I am truly unworthy of such praise."

Shen Long dared not refuse again.

"This is what you deserve. Anyone who has a problem with it should speak up."

Mo Wuya said.

"Senior Mo and Senior Qi are wise; this junior has no objections."

Su Susu and the others said in unison.

They could all see that Mo Wuya and Qi Xiao wanted to promote Shen Long as a role model, so naturally they wouldn't go against the two Spirit Transformation cultivators.
