Inside the seclusion room of the City Lord’s Mansion.
Xiao Yi sat cross-legged, nurturing his injuries.
Originally, he planned to find an inn.
However, upon stating his plan, Fangcun City Lord enthusiastically insisted that he stay.
After some thought, Xiao Yi realized that besides the seclusion room in the Demon Hunting Hall’s Main Hall, the City Lord’s Mansion’s seclusion room was the safest, so he stayed.
One by one, Elixir Elixirs entered his stomach, quickly restoring his injuries.
Half a day later, Xiao Yi exhaled a breath of impure air.
The injuries had healed.
Xiao Yi’s prior injuries were not minor.
But, given his superior physical constitution and the large amount of Perfect Level high-grade Elixirs, recovery was swift.
This illustrates the importance of the Alchemist profession.
A Martial Artist might carry various Healing Pills or request an Alchemist’s treatment.
Yet, no one understands one’s own body and injuries better than oneself.
Being an Alchemist, Xiao Yi is proficient in Alchemical methods, making self-treatment simple.
For Xiao Yi’s injuries, others would need ten days to half a month even with a high-grade Alchemist’s help to recover.
Now, with his injuries restored.
The next step is cultivation.
The Task Points from the top-ranked mission are substantial, thus the rewards aren’t low.
However, Xiao Yi is curious about Huoo Linlang’s identity and why the Demon Hunting Hall pays such attention.
It elicited nearly all Martial Artists from a Main Hall and offered such a large reward.
Of course, Xiao Yi was only mildly curious and didn’t dwell on it.
The rewards were taken out, filled with numerous Cultivation Items.
Elixirs, all ingested and absorbed by Xiao Yi.
Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, refined one by one into Elixirs.
Four hours later, Xiao Yi had turned all Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures into Elixirs.
A small mountain of Elixirs appeared before him.
"Absorb." Xiao Yi whispered.
Both Martial Souls in his body activated.
In mere minutes, the small mountain of Elixirs was fully absorbed.
Under Perfect Level Elixirs, there’s no impurity, naturally, there’s no residue.
A burst of aura erupted from Xiao Yi’s body.
"It’s going to break through." Xiao Yi’s face lit up with joy.
At this level, elevating Primordial Power to the four-layer height of Qi Spring suffices.
After all, the Martial Artist’s Qi Spring remains unchanged, only the Small World size increases.
Filling the Qi Spring is far easier than the Small World.
Nonetheless, this top-ranked mission’s reward indeed was generous.
Remarkably, it’s been only about two months since his last breakthrough.
The Primordial Power height had reached but the cultivation hadn’t officially entered the Heavenly Extreme Fourth Layer.
The final step now is to possess a complete fourth martial art.
Xiao Yi had already decided which martial art to breakthrough, precisely the Earth Vein Golden Fire martial art.
Whoosh... Whoosh... Whoosh...
Strands of Heaven and Earth Martial Arts Power penetrated through the seclusion room’s prohibition.
It was the Heaven and Earth Martial Arts Power of the Earth Vein Golden Fire.
Xiao Yi absorbed them, a golden martial art within his Small World continuously perfected and grew.
An hour later, this golden martial art approached perfection.
"Just one more strand to be completely whole." Xiao Yi’s eyes were filled with unconcealed joy.
Having a complete martial art isn’t as simple as enhancing cultivation by one layer.
It signifies his Purple Flame Domain can add another complete martial art, dramatically boosting its power.
Yet...
"Puh." Xiao Yi suddenly spat out bloody saliva, his face beneath the mask turning extraordinarily pale.
