Yang Xiaotian looked at the excited expressions of the pharmacists before him and nodded, “I am Yang Xiaotian.”

The two-star pharmacist replied with a fearful and respectful tone, “Divine Yang, I am Fu Zhen. I didn’t realize it was you earlier, I, I…” He became so agitated that his words jumbled together.

Yang Xiaotian shook his hand and laughed, “It’s okay.” Then he smiled at Li Wen, “Grand Hall Master Li, where is the medicinal pool? Can I enter it to cultivate now?”

Back in Divine Sword City, he wasn’t too concerned about the medicinal pool, but now that he had arrived at the Grand Pharmacist Hall, he couldn’t wait to enter the pool for cultivation.

“Alright, Friend Yang, I’ll take you to the medicinal pool now,” Li Wen understood Yang Xiaotian’s mood and smiled, then led Yang Xiaotian and the other two towards the Inner Hall.

Even after Yang Xiaotian’s figure disappeared, the pharmacists in the great hall were still overflowing with excitement.

Especially that two-star pharmacist, who was filled with endless regret.

After passing through the numerous palaces of the Pharmacist Hall, they arrived at a large gate. The gate was firmly closed, with intricate runes on it. Li Wen channeled his True Yuan, slowly pushing the gate open.

Once the gate was opened, inside was a medicinal pool that measured one hundred square meters.

The pool was emerald green, like a giant piece of jade.

Even standing outside the gate, one could smell an exceptionally comfortable and unique fragrance.

This scent was the distinctive aroma of the medicinal pool, formed by gathering the essence of Heaven and Earth.

“Friend Yang, you can enter the medicinal pool now. Taking the time when the gate closes as the standard, I will come to get you after ten days,” Li Wen said to Yang Xiaotian with a smile.

Yang Xiaotian nodded and walked toward the medicinal pool.

The gate began to close.

Wu Qi and Luo Qing stood guard outside the gate.

Yang Xiaotian arrived at the center of the medicinal pool, sat down cross-legged without ceremony, and began to circulate the Primordial Dragon Art.

Suddenly, the surging essence of Heaven and Earth rushed into Yang Xiaotian’s body from within the pool, at a speed that astounded onlookers.

From afar, the essence of Heaven and Earth formed into a mighty vortex.

And Yang Xiaotian was soon submerged by the great vortex.

Meanwhile, within Xingyue City, Yang Chao and Huang Ying were leading Yang Ling’er through her Martial Soul Awakening.

Yang Ling’er stood within the spell formation in the square, feeling very, very warm.

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, suddenly a phoenix’s cry that resounded through Heaven and Earth rang out.

A gigantic, colorful phoenix manifested above Yang Ling’er’s head in the sky.

An astounding pressure enveloped Heaven and Earth.

Within the square, whether it was the masters conducting the formation or the other family experts, all were shocked beyond measure.

“It’s a phoenix!”

“A Nine-Colored Phoenix Wuhun!”

“It’s a Nine-Colored Phoenix!”

“A fourteenth-level Martial Soul!”

The square instantly exploded with activity.

Everyone was extraordinarily excited.

A fourteenth-level Martial Soul was rare not only in the Divine Sea Country but also throughout the entire Divine Dragon Empire.

The originally tense Yang Chao and Huang Ying stood dumbfounded.

Then, the two of them grasped each other’s hands excitedly, their eyes filled with tears.

Their daughter had awakened a fourteenth-level Nine-Colored Phoenix Wuhun!

Even more heaven-defying than their son’s eleventh-level Martial Soul was her fourteenth-level one!

“Heaven bless our Yang Family!” Yang Chao’s lips trembled.

Their son had already been a tremendous surprise, but his daughter’s surprise was even greater.

“`

Just when everyone was pleasantly surprised by Yang Ling’er’s awakening of the Nine-Colored Phoenix Martial Soul, suddenly, a figure burst through the crowd, aiming a thrust with a sword directly at Yang Ling’er.

This unexpected scene shocked everyone.

The faces of Yang Chao and Huang Ying, who had been excited, changed dramatically.

Yang Chao charged forward furiously, trying to intervene, but the assailant was too fast and far stronger than he; the sword reached Yang Ling’er’s chest in an instant.

Just as the assassin’s sword was about to pierce through Yang Ling’er’s chest, and everyone thought Yang Ling’er was destined to die, suddenly, a long sword shot out from the crowd, aiming straight at the assassin.

The assassin was startled and in a panic, he no longer concentrated on Yang Ling’er, twisting his body to dodge, but the oncoming sword still struck his ribs.

At that moment, five figures burst through the air; it turned out to be Liao Kun and Zhang Jingrong among the five, who simultaneously struck the assassin with their palms, sending him flying.

“Who are you?” The assassin, knocked back and spewing blood, was both shocked and enraged.

“Who are we?” Liao Kun sneered. “That’s the question we should be asking you.”

It turned out that when Yang Xiaotian, Wu Qi, and Luo Qing went to the Royal City, they were worried about their family in Xingyue City and had sent Liao Kun and Zhang Jingrong along with three others over.

The assassin suddenly turned around and fled into the crowd.

However, how could Liao Kun and the others possibly let him escape?

They leaped up and quickly intercepted him.

…

Ten days passed in the blink of an eye.

After ten days, Li Wen arrived on time to open the door to the healing pool.

However, when he opened the door to the pool, he was stunned by the scene before him.

Yang Xiaotian was still sitting cross-legged inside the healing pool, but the pool, originally filled with the essence of heaven and earth, had become dry and barren.

“This, this!” Li Wen pointed at the healing pool.

In just ten days, Yang Xiaotian had nearly consumed an entire pool’s essence of heaven and earth.

This was something he had never encountered or even imagined.

In the past, there were pharmacists who received rewards and practised in the healing pool for ten days.

But none had absorbed essence so voraciously.

It was astounding that in just ten days, the pool’s essence of heaven and earth was nearly exhausted.

Yang Xiaotian stood up and, looking at Li Wen, felt somewhat embarrassed as he said, “Grand Hall Master Li, I didn’t expect the pool would deplete so quickly.”

Li Wen almost fainted.

The essence of heaven and earth in this healing pool had been accumulating for hundreds of years.

And it depleted quickly?

He looked at Yang Xiaotian’s small stature, incredulous that in just ten days it could nearly drain the pool?

“Grand Hall Master Li, how about this,” Yang Xiaotian thought for a moment, took out a hundred portions of top-quality Foundation Building Spiritual Liquid, “These are for the Grand Hall,” as his way of compensation.

Li Wen stared at the hundred portions of top-quality Foundation Building Spiritual Liquid from Yang Xiaotian, dumbfounded, and eventually, he could only bitter-sweetly accept Yang Xiaotian’s compensation.

He knew that it was not Yang Xiaotian’s fault, after all. The pharmacist competition had awarded him the opportunity to practice in the healing pool for ten days.

Yang Xiaotian had simply practiced as allowed for ten days.

Afterward, Li Wen warmly invited Yang Xiaotian to stay a few more days at the Grand Pharmacist Hall, to offer some advice to the pharmacists there.

He claimed that the pharmacists at the Grand Pharmacist Hall looked up to Yang Xiaotian greatly.

Seeing Li Wen’s warm invitation, Yang Xiaotian decided to stay.

However, after night fell, as Yang Xiaotian was practicing swordsmanship in the courtyard of the Grand Pharmacist Hall, Luo Qing entered, looking serious as he reported the events at Xingyue City.

“What, my sister awakened a level fourteen Martial Soul?!” Yang Xiaotian exclaimed with delight, but upon hearing that Yang Ling’er had been the target of an assassination, his expression darkened: “Was the assailant caught?”

“The assailant has been captured,” Luo Qing said.
