Chapter 563: Not to Shrink from Death!

Not to Shrink from Death! . . .

Ling Wuxie, in high spirits, burst into laughter as he expressed his delight. He couldn't help but admire Cha Eun Xiao's intelligence, comparing it to Bai Chen's wisdom. He couldn't contain his enthusiasm and repeated, "I like it. I like it. Hahahaha…"

And then, turning to Cha Eun Xiao, he asked, "Brother Feng, how long do you think it will take to finish the fifty Heaven Seizing Supreme Dan beads?" His expression grew serious as he posed the question.

Cha Eun Xiao contemplated the query for a moment and then replied thoughtfully, "Since it is you asking, I won't pretend about anything. As long as I have enough medical materials and with what I have learned during the past few days, as long as I can be safe from the divine punishment, it will take me two months to finish it."

Ling Wuxie's eyes lit up with excitement, and he expressed his relief, "Great! Brilliant! Brother Feng, what an accomplishment in the dan-making area. Not to mention in this world, even in Human Realm Upon Heavens, you are an incredible master!" He pondered for a moment and added, "By the way, how many materials are needed?"

Cha Eun Xiao hesitated and then replied, "Well… Urh… It is hard to say. I am confident about making this dan, however, it depends on my capability at thirty percent while seventy percent on luck. That is the reality." He didn't mention it because he wanted more materials; he genuinely wasn't sure.

He had managed to create three beads from one thousand portions of materials given to him by Brother Egg. Would he be able to produce another three beads from another one thousand portions of materials, or perhaps only one? The uncertainty weighed on his mind.

In the end, Cha Eun Xiao could only say, "All in all, the more the better," and sighed.

Ling Wuxie understood the unpredictability of dan-making, especially when dealing with a Supreme Dan. He reflected, "Dan-making was something uncontrollable after all. The higher level the dan was, the more difficult it was to produce. Supreme Dan was the most difficult. Otherwise, how could there only be one Heaven Seizing Supreme Dan bead in the long history! No one ever made it after that unique one before Cha Eun Xiao! Even super dan-making masters like Cha Eun Xiao, who knew a lot about Heaven Seizing Supreme Dan already, couldn't be sure about it. To make one stove successfully among a hundred failures could be a legend! How could he make every stove succeed? That was impossible, even for gods!"

Cha Eun Xiao's talent in dan-making left a deep impression on Ling Wuxie, who decided to change the topic and asked, "You are marvelous in dan-making, Brother Feng. You are doing something legendary in history. However, I haven't seen any divine punishment so far this time? Did you use my tower that I gave you?"

Annoyed by the implication, Cha Eun Xiao retorted, "What do you mean your tower? That is my tower!" Ling Wuxie felt embarrassed and regretted his choice of words.

Cha Eun Xiao explained, "I made it large enough for me to get into it, and I created the dan beads inside it. I needed to concentrate, so I didn't pay much attention to the divine punishment. Didn't I just give the two ladies two Supreme Dan beads? How can I still stand here like this if I didn't escape the punishment?"

Speechless, Ling Wuxie stared at him and commented, "Well… That's it?..."

He couldn't help but be impressed by Cha Eun Xiao's ingenuity and the effective use of the Golden Soul Tower, which was powerful enough to withstand the divine punishment lightning without a scratch.

As Ling Wuxie left, he casually asked Cha Eun Xiao something else.

Ling Wuxie couldn't help but express his thoughts to Cha Eun Xiao, remarking, "Brother Feng, basically, with your capability, your schemes, your wisdom, your… everything… you shouldn't look like this. This appearance of yours shouldn't be really you…" He raised the question with a mixture of curiosity and seriousness.

In response, Cha Eun Xiao didn't provide a direct answer. He merely smiled secretly and replied, "Why don't you guess?"

Ling Wuxie chuckled and took his leave, but not before stating his determination, "No, I won't! I just need to wait! Someday… there will be someone in Human Realm Upon Heavens using that tower! I will get to know who you are! Such an incredible treasure, which is well combined with your soul, I don't think you will abandon it, will you?" He couldn't help but laugh as he left Cha Eun Xiao's presence.

Observing Ling Wuxie's departure, Cha Eun Xiao couldn't help but admire him, mumbling, "Well, this Lord Ling is not only a man who can be a good friend but also a man who is full of fun."

Meanwhile, the representatives of the five clans arrived to bid farewell to Feng Monarch. They had initially planned to leave two days earlier, but they had patiently waited for Feng Monarch's return. They didn't wish to displease him, knowing the consequences of making him angry.

Long Tianyun, their spokesperson, addressed Cha Eun Xiao, "Feng Monarch, we are leaving today. Before we go, we came to see you. We want to say goodbye to you and also show our respect and gratitude to you."

In a straightforward manner, Cha Eun Xiao wished them well, saying, "Take care."

Long Tianyun expressed their collective gratitude, saying, "Thank you, Monarch. We won't forget the great favor! Whatever you need, just write us a letter..." He looked at his companions, and they all stood up straight, pledging, "Anything you command! We won't think, even in death!"

Cha Eun Xiao humbly accepted their appreciation, sighing, "I am flattered." As they were about to depart, he seized the moment to share his thoughts, saying, "Maybe there's something you can advise me on… The two great sects are heavily damaged… It could be a great opportunity for you guys…"

The eyes of the clan representatives lit up at the prospect, and they eagerly replied, "Anything, Monarch!"
