He looked at Zhong Yiheng first. "As one of our earliest veterans, your Soul Saint rank is too low. These five boxes of Bottles o' Enchanting and Soul Ring Crystals are yours. Keep up the good work, and cultivate and recruit more geniuses for Heaven Beyond Heaven."

Li Chen nodded, then shifted his gaze from him to the next person.
"Dugu Bo, you contributed the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, ensuring Heaven Beyond Heaven a steady supply of immortal herbs... Here are ten Enchanted Golden Apples and another three Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bones. They should help you hold on longer."
He paused before continuing, "If we still haven't found a perfect solution before you reach your limit, I can destroy your poison cultivation and give you another immortal herb to make your Martial Soul evolve in a different direction."
"These old bones are still sturdy. With four Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bones, I might die of old age before I even fill all my Soul Bone slots."
