Chapter 284: Everything is complicated
"The news brought by Master Shi has explained some of the situation. This world was separated from the Xuanxian Realm. I guess the reason we are stuck in the fusion stage and trying to perfect our cultivation is because the rules of the cultivation world are incomplete, and there are powerful beings in the refining realm, which has blocked the way forward for the cultivation world." Ma Lingyao frowned slightly and analyzed thoughtfully.
"Can we reach the Xuanxian Realm through other methods?" Chen Zhi asked expectantly.
"I'm afraid it's difficult." Peng Xuanbo shook his head slowly and said, "If there is a way to go to the Xuantian Immortal Realm, the perfect cultivators in the cultivation world would have used this method to leave long ago. However, Master Shi, how did the Lord of the Immortal Court leave the cultivation world?" He turned his head and looked at Shi Chen with curiosity in his eyes.
"At that time, she said that she was going to be squeezed out by the rules of the cultivation realm. In the end, the rules of the realm opened a channel for her to leave." Shi Chen recalled the situation at that time and said seriously.
"A realm channel? Or someone who refines the realm? The rules of the realm?" Ma Lingyao muttered to herself, lost in thought.
"Seniors, we can't do these things now. Let's focus on the things at hand." Shi Chen interrupted everyone's speculation and continued, "When you send cultivators to explore the places with strange phenomena, I will explore them one by one. After a year, if I don't get any definite news, I will go and explore all the places in the cultivation world myself."
There was determination in Shi Chen's eyes.
"We can only do our best and leave the rest to fate," Peng Xuanbo said in a deep voice, a hint of helplessness on his face. He raised his head, glanced at everyone, and continued, "Next, let's discuss the fusion pill and spiritual medicine. I can provide fifteen spiritual medicines."
"The Qingming Immortal Sect will provide twenty copies." Zhang Qingwen said without hesitation.
"I'll give you ten shares," Ma Lingyao said softly.
"Qingxuan Sect will provide twelve portions," Fang Huan suddenly spoke out among the combined cultivators.
Shi Chen looked up and saw that Sect Master Fang had a gloomy look on his face. He awkwardly clasped his fists towards Shi Chen. Shi Chen clasped his fists in return with a complicated look in his eyes.
"The Huolie tribe will provide twenty copies." A fiery red-skinned fusion cultivator below stood up and said in a loud voice.
……
A quarter of an hour later, more than twenty fusion cultivators present expressed their willingness one by one and offered fusion pills and elixirs.
"Master Shi, there are a total of 371 spiritual herbs. Based on the master's success rate, after deducting the first 50 spiritual herbs for practice, we can refine 60 to 70 batches of finished pills, with each batch yielding 3 to 6 pills. The final number of pills we'll obtain is between 200 and 400. We'll divide the pills according to the proportion of the spiritual herbs. Does anyone have any objections?" Peng Xuanbo said solemnly, his eyes slowly sweeping over the crowd.
"Good!" Zhang Qingwen nodded slightly in agreement.
"That's great!" All the combined monks expressed their opinions and agreed with this division.
"Master Shi, is this okay?" Peng Xuanbo looked at Shi Chen expectantly and asked.
"Since everyone agrees, let's divide it according to the method proposed by General Peng. But let me give you a heads up. The final number of pills will be more than 300. After that, I will take one for every ten pills as a reward for refining the pills. If the number is less than 300, I won't take a cent. We will complete the refining within one year. Is this suitable for you all?" Shi Chen said with a smile.
"Master Shi, there's no need to do this. The production of the fusion pill is low. Even if it's less than 300, you should still get three as a reward for refining the pill." Zhang Qingwen said hurriedly, his eyes full of sincerity.
"Yes! We can't let the master's work go to waste."
"Yes! Yes! We can't let Master Shi down."
The twenty-eight combined cultivators present all expressed their agreement and praised Shi Chen's generosity and responsibility.
Peng Xuanbo nodded slightly and said, "Master Shi, you are so kind. Since everyone agrees, then it is settled. Master Shi, I will leave the task of refining the fusion pill to you. We will also arrange for cultivators to explore the land of anomalies as soon as possible, and work together for the future of humanity and all living beings in the world."
Shi Chen said solemnly, "Don't worry, General Peng. I will do my best and live up to everyone's expectations."
Time passed quickly. Half a year later, the human coalition had recovered most of Yezhou and controlled more than a dozen fairy cities. The war with the sea monsters became more and more intense, and both sides were increasing their troops.
In every battle, the human race would send out at least five combined monks to support the monk army. As long as they saw that the monk army was suppressed by the sirens in terms of numbers, they would send out combined monks to suppress it.
Peng Xuanbo's tactics were very effective and were not confined to the previous king versus king or soldier versus soldier.
Because the Siren's previous deception caused heavy losses to the human race, the strategy now formulated is different from before.
The human race used high-level cultivators with the purpose of encirclement and suppression, luring out the high-level cultivators of the Siren clan and killing them with numbers.
The low-level monks gathered into battle formations, obeyed the commander-in-chief's command, cooperated with each other, and strangled the low-level sirens.
This is an open conspiracy, a conspiracy that the siren cannot crack.
If it were in the Monster Sea, their own familiar territory, this conspiracy would not work. The Monster Clan is in the water and can use their own advantages to make it difficult for humans to effectively strangle them.
Peng Xuanbo was very confident. With the advantage of the human race and the number of people in the fusion stage three times that of the sirens, he forced the sirens to fight in a fusion battle.
As long as the sirens dare to fight, they may not be killed, but at least they can be injured and lose their combat effectiveness at a small cost.
The sirens have lost their fusion-stage combat power, and the human cultivators in the fusion stage can lead the cultivator army to sweep through the siren army like a landslide, regain lost territory, and even have the hope of driving the sirens back to the depths of the ocean.
However, the Sirens were not without countermeasures. They began to shrink their defenses, concentrating their forces and gradually giving up their occupied territory, as if waiting for something.
What the human race is most worried about is that the Sea Monster King will suddenly come and snipe the lone combined monks. As long as it succeeds once or twice, it will bring huge pressure to the coalition forces and even cause the collapse of the front line.
According to Shi Chen, the Sea Monster King's cultivation may have surpassed the fusion stage. The best way to restrain him at present is for the fusion cultivators to stick together. At least the Sea Monster King cannot instantly kill the human fusion stage cultivators.
The grouping of the human race's combined cultivators also fits in with Peng Xuanbo's strategy. The combination of the two makes the human race more powerful.
On the battlefield, the morale of the human monks was high. Led by the fusion monks, they advanced steadily, continuously recovering lost territory. Every immortal city recaptured became a solid fortress for the human race, providing strong support for subsequent battles.
The monks have also made some progress in exploring the place of visions.
Several mysterious areas were discovered. These areas were filled with strange energy fluctuations, which seemed to be related to the event of the realm being refined.
After Shi Chen learned the news, he decided to go to these places to investigate in person after refining a batch of fusion pills.
Shi Chen could have refined the fusion pill in half a year, but it was still very difficult to refine. With Shi Chen's current level of alchemy, the success rate was less than half.
In the end, only 150 furnaces were completed, yielding 756 fusion pills, nine of the highest quality, 49 of the highest quality, 108 of the middle quality, and the remainder of the lowest quality.
