“Are you alright, Young Master?” Yuan Fei asked concernedly.
If not for him, Ye Yuan would not need to refine the Demon Crystal Pill in advance and did not need to work so hard.
Crossing ranks to refine was impressive, but it was not something easy.
Ye Yuan waved his hands and said, “No matter, just rest a while and I’ll be fine.”
Finishing, Ye Yuan reached out and beckoned. The medicinal pill flew out from the medicinal cauldron and landed in his hands.
“Hur hur, my efforts were not wasted. It’s actually transcendent-grade again! Yuan Fei, you keep it first. In two day’s time, I’ll bring you into the cultivation room. You break through there.”
Ye Yuan directly threw the medicinal pill to Yuan Fei. He himself fished out a medicinal pill to consume and began to recover his condition.
. . . . . .
A day later, Ye Yuan brought Yuan Fei into an A-grade cultivation room and started to undergo a breakthrough.
Yuan Fei adjusted his condition and directly consumed that transcendent-grade Demon Crystal Pill.
Very soon, the fluctuations within the cultivation room gradually grew stronger.
Yuan Fei was originally peak early-stage Tier 3. With the transcendent-grade Demon Crystal Pill, breaking through was a cinch.
The breakthrough process was very smooth. Roughly half a day’s time, Yuan Fei advanced to the middle-stage Tier 3!
The first thing Yuan Fei did after breaking through was to give a deep bow to Ye Yuan.
“Yuan Fei give thanks to Young Master!”
Ye Yuan waved his hands and said, “No need to be courteous between us. This is what you deserve.”
Yuan Fei sighed emotionally and said, “Yuan Fei is ashamed! Back then when I listened to Young Master’s words, Yuan Fei even thought that it was a young man’s wild pitch. Thinking back now, following Young Master was truly the most correct thing that Yuan Fei did in this life!”
Although Ye Yuan convinced Yuan Fei back then, towards Ye Yuan’s rampant words, Yuan Fei only believed half of it.
He followed Ye Yuan merely to seek out that trace of hope to break through.
In the beginning, the martial talent that Ye Yuan displayed was naturally without question.
All the way until Ye Yuan taught Ye Hang alchemy did Yuan Fei finally rejoice over his choice.
To be able to guide an Alchemy Grandmaster on how to refine medicinal pills, that meant that Ye Yuan at least had the strength that did not lose out to an Alchemy Grandmaster. As long as his realm reached the mark, he could naturally refine Tier 3 medicinal pills.
Except, Yuan Fei never could have dreamt that this day would actually arrive so quickly!
Seeing Ye Yuan personally refine a Tier 3 medicinal pill, Yuan Fei finally knew just how powerful this master he submitted to was.
“Haha! To recognize an Essence Qi Realm martial artist as master, you also needed great resolve. Back then, I already said that you have immense luck. Your accomplishments in this life will definitely not be just Tier 4! Widen your horizons more. Tier 5, which is Taking Form, is the starting point of you demonic beasts!” Ye Yuan said with a laugh.
Hearing these words, Yuan Fei’s heart jolted.
Honestly speaking, he did not think about Tier 5 Taking Form, even after he followed Ye Yuan! Being able to break through to Tier 4 was already the limits of his imaginations.
Tier 5 Taking Form was too hard, way too difficult!
One had to know that demonic beasts Tier 4 was equivalent to the amalgamation of the human race Sea Transformation Realm and Soul Sea Realm, virtually the distance of two major realms.
In the Endless World, Tier 4 was roughly the endpoint for demonic beasts.
But hearing the present Ye Yuan, it was just a matter of course.
If he heard others say this kind of words in the past, he would definitely give that person a tight slap, then tell them to not reach beyond their means.
But now, there was indescribable longing in Yuan Fei’s heart!
“Yuan Fei understands! Thank you very much, Young Master!” Yuan Fei said sincerely.
“En. Oh yes, later, I’ll refine some medicinal pills for your clansmen. They have already reached the bottleneck of Tier 2. As long as their age isn’t too old, breaking through to Tier 3 shouldn’t be an issue,” Ye Yuan said.
Yuan Fei was overjoyed upon hearing that and said, “Thank you very much, Young Master!”
Ye Yuan’s heart suddenly jolted. He formed another seal, and White Light appeared inside the cultivation room.
“Haha, you finally woke up, White Light? En? Directly broke through to Tier 2?” Ye Yuan was first thrilled, followed by astonishment.
White Light gave a low roar. His tiger head rubbed against Ye Yuan’s leg, looking incredibly adorable.
“Young Master, he’s thanking you,” Yuan Fei suddenly said.
“Haha, thanks for what? You ate so many medicinal pills in one go, nearly scared me to death back then!” Ye Yuan was still somewhat filled with trepidation recalling the scene of how White Light swallowed so many medicinal pills in one go.
But White Light’s physique was really rather special. A sleep and he actually broke through to Tier 2 already.
Yuan Fei saw that White Light broke through and was also filled with envy. “Thinking back then, I spent a total of 50 years to breakthrough from Tier 1 to Tier 2! White Light is at most five years old and actually broke through to Tier 2 already! But looks like only he can keep up with Young Master’s speed!”
Ye Yuan’s heart skipped and asked, “Yuan Fei, can you see White Light’s origin?”
Yuan Fei shook his head and said, “White Light’s origin is bound to be extraordinary. But I don’t have it inside my inherited memories. However, the way I see it, the concentration of White Light’s White Tiger bloodline is definitely very high!”

Ye Yuan could obviously see it too. His gaze when looking at White Light flickered uncertainly.
White Light wagged its tail like it was showing off.
“Uh . . . Could it mean that White Light has the potential to become a divine beast? If this world can give birth to divine beasts, does that mean that it can also give birth to Deity Realm powerhouses?” Ye Yuan muttered to himself.
White Light gave another low roar. Ye Yuan laughed wryly when he saw the situation and said, “Haha, come on, White Light! Let’s affirm our Dao and become deities together!”
Hearing Ye Yuan’s words, White Light’s tiger head rubbed against Ye Yuan, appearing very lovingly.
It was evident that this little fellow’s ambition was not small either.
. . . . . .
The next day, Ye Yuan arrived at the Support Star Pavilion.
Although Ye Yuan’s points were enough for him to use for a long time, he still decided to ready enough points required for the Purple Center Soul Incantation talking.
To earn points, he naturally had to come to the Support Star Pavilion to take on missions.
The Support Star Pavilion could be said to be a very crowded place in the sect. It was packed every day, with people coming and going.
If sect disciples wanted to continue surviving, they had to take on missions non-stop. This place naturally became somewhere they must visit.
Putting aside outer-sect disciples, even some extremely powerful core disciples would be frequent visitors here.
There was a rich variety of sect missions, but they were divided into nine levels. Level one was the easiest and level nine was the hardest.
Level three and below missions were mostly some miscellaneous tasks, such as managing herb gardens, cleaning to ensure hygiene, so on and so forth, these sort of simple things.
Of course, these simple missions were also split by difficulty level. The points that could be obtained was different.
From level four onwards, it would be missions that we
re relatively more dangerous, or comparatively harder. As expected, the points awarded by these missions were also different according to the difference in level.
These sect missions included Pill Hall missions and Martial Hall missions. Any disciple could take them on.
Naturally, Pill Hall disciples mostly took on Pill Hall missions while Martial Hall disciples took Martial Hall missions. Crossover mission acceptance was a rare occurrence.
Even when crossover, the majority would be Pill Hall disciples taking Martial Hall missions. But when Martial Hall disciples see Pill Hall missions, they could only stare google-eyed.
Too many Pill Hall missions were related to alchemy. The specialization was incredibly strong. Martial Hall disciple basically could only look on.
There was a great hall in the Support Star Pavilion. In the center of the hall was an extremely large jade wall. This jade wall contained all the missions. Disciples only had to check with their divine sense to see the contents of the missions.
Disciples just had to record down the mission’s level and number to retrieve the mission jade slip from the disciple on duty.
After completing the mission, disciples could rely on the mission jade slips and the designated mission token to collect the rewarded points from the disciple on duty.
Ye Yuan inserted his divine sense into the jade wall and started to go through the missions.
After slightly checking level one missions, Ye Yuan gave up straight away. Doing these sort of missions was purely a waste of time. The points were few and it even delayed cultivation time.
Following that, he checked the level two and three mission and gave up too.
He only looked slightly more in detail when he saw the level four missions.
There were missions issued by the Martial Hall among the level four missions and also missions released by the Pill Hall.
Many of the missions given by the Martial Hall were to go outside and run errands. There were those that were to hunt down some heinously fiendish individuals. Others were to help secular world countries, etc. There were too many to enumerate.
But the vast majority of missions published by the Pill Hall were about alchemy. In such a large sect, the medicinal pill consumption each day was tremendous. If the Pill Hall lacked some medicinal pills, they would put up a mission here to let disciples refine them and reward with points.
Ye Yuan swept through the level four missions but was ultimately uninterested.
Too little points!
A level four mission. Those that were lower only had 1000 points, while those higher ones only had 2000 points.
If Ye Yuan were to do level four missions, until which donkey year would he be able to earn 300 thousand points?
“Quickly look, Senior Apprentice Brother Ceng returned!”
“It’s true! I heard that what he took on this time was a level six mission: to hunt down a First Level Crystal Formation Realm serial rapist!”
“Yeah, I also heard it! It’s said that this level six mission reward was 20 thousand points. Looks like he doesn’t need to go outside for a very long time.”
“Hey, did you hear? Ceng Cheng’s younger brother, Ceng Yu, was counter-robbed by a newbie disciple and went to hide in the cultivation rooms? Now that Senior Apprentice Brother Ceng Cheng came back, it’s probably going to be tragic for that newbie disciple.”
“Tch, Ceng Yu is someone who bullies the weak but fears the strong. He should have been taken care of long ago! If not for his brother, he would have been beaten up by others! If you tell me, I say nicely done!”
“Shh . . . Softer. Don’t let Senior Apprentice Brother Ceng hear it. He’s very protective!”
Ye Yuan’s thoughts were interrupted by these two person’s discussion. He looked towards that black-clothed youth who was currently collecting the rewards with some surprise.
No wonder that Ceng Yu was so cocky. Turned out that he had such a big brother as his backing.
“Peak Ninth Level Spirit Condensation Realm, strength is pretty decent. Reckon that he’s probably around the same as Senior Apprentice Brother Zhang Jing, right?”
Ceng Cheng handed the mission jade slip and a wooden box to the disciple on duty with a haughty look and said, “Level six, No. 72 mission completed. Do a check.”
The disciple on duty had an impressed look as he said, “Senior Apprentice Brother Ceng is really amazing! Ninth Level Spirit Condensation Realm and able to kill a First Level Crystal Formation Realm expert! I reckon that before long, Senior Apprentice Brother Ceng will be able to enter the ranks of elite disciples!”
A trace of delight flashed across Ceng Cheng’s eyes, but he concealed it very well and said with a smile, “Just a secular world First Level Crystal Formation Realm. Not even worth mentioning. Quite a number of seniors have this strength.”
“Haha, Senior Apprentice Brother Ceng is really modest! Half a year ago, you were still taking on level five missions, but now, you’ve already completed a level six mission which is ranked closer to the front. This sort of improvement speed is also extremely amazing among the seniors! At this rate, Senior Apprentice Brother Ceng can most likely complete level seven missions very soon! That is a watershed!” The disciple on duty poured out flattery like it was free.
“Haha, nah, nah,” Ceng Cheng could not hide his delight and said with a chuckle.
The watershed that the disciple on duty talked about was actually the dividing crest between elite disciples and core disciples!
Level seven and above missions; basically, only elite disciples could complete them.
If Ceng Cheng could complete a level seven mission, it would mean that he already had one foot into the rankings of elite disciples. However, wanting to cross this was far from as simple as imagined.
This point was evident just by looking at the difficulty of level seven missions.
But one had to acknowledge that the disciple on duty’s words scratched Ceng Cheng’s itch.
“Senior Apprentice Brother Ceng, the reward has already entered your identity token. You do a check,” the disciple on duty said with a flattering smile.
“Tch, isn’t it just completing a level six mission? Look how happy you are!” At this time, a disharmonious voice sounded out.
Ceng Cheng’s face changed, and he said frostily, “Qiu Peng, don’t be cynical over here! If you have the capabilities, then you go complete a level six mission too for me to see!”
Qiu Peng was also a top character in the Earth Barracks, around the same as Ceng Cheng.
These two people had always been at odds, contending bitterly. However, Qiu Peng had always been slightly inferior.
“Hur hur, I came to take on a level six mission. You just watch. Oh, right, since you have time to be proud of yourself here, why don’t you hurry and go take a look at that precious little brother of yours?” Qiu Peng said with a beam.
Chapter 237

Ceng Cheng’s face fell as he said, “What about my brother?”
“Haha, your younger brother kicked a metal plate this time. He went to collect protection fees but got collected instead. Oh, the other party is even a newcomer. I heard that he’s only Second Level Spirit Condensation Realm. Tsk tsk, Ceng Yu that punk is really declining with each day.” Qiu Peng burst into laughter.
After all, there were not many people who witnessed it with their own eyes. Qiu Peng also got it from hearsay and felt that Ceng Yu was really too scrub to actually lose to a Second Level Spirit Condensation Realm.
They would not feel that Ye Yuan was very amazing but only feel that Ceng Yu was rotten mud which could not even hold up a wall.
Ceng Cheng’s eyes narrowed. A killing intent was released as he asked in a low voice, “What’s that punk called?”
Qiu Peng did not mind, however, as he said, “How would I know? Why would I concern myself with this kind of small squabbles between unranked nobodies? Wouldn’t you know after in
quiring from the Earth Barracks yourself? Make way, make way, I’m going to receive missions.”
Finishing, Qiu Peng no longer bothered with Ceng Cheng as he swaggered into the great hall.
“This Senior Apprentice Brother, I want to take the level nine No. 3 mission,” Ye Yuan came in front of the disciple on duty and said lightly.
“Oh, sure thing. Level nine No. 3 . . . What? You want level nine No. 3 mission?!” The disciple on duty did not react to it at the start. After talking halfway, he suddenly exclaimed in shock.
This shocked exclamation was too ear-piercing. Everybody was startled by him.
Ye Yuan secretly sighed. He knew that this kind of situation would happen. However, low-level missions award too little points. Doing them one at a time was seriously too troublesome. He could only choose high level missions.
Level nine missions, even elite disciples could not complete them. The level nine No. 3 mission that Ye Yuan picked had already been hanging there for 10 years, but nobody cared to ask about it the entire time. It could be seen that the difficulty had already reached the extent where it made people’s hair stand on end.
“Yes, level nine No. 3. I’ve to trouble Senior Apprentice Brother to give me the mission jade slip.”
The originally abnormally noisy hall instantly quietened down, leaving only Ye Yuan’s voice reverberating.
Qiu Peng was originally prepared to inquire about missions but turned his head back to look at Ye Yuan at this time.
Ceng Cheng who was originally preparing to leave to settle the scores with Ye Yuan also turned back currently, staring at Ye Yuan oddly.
“Cough cough, this Junior Apprentice Brother, did you mistook the mission? Nobody has taken on the level nine No. 3 mission for many years already. Because the difficulty is extremely great, it was hailed as the impossible mission.”
After being stupefied for a while, the disciple on duty recovered. But his first reaction was that Ye Yuan made a mistake.
“No mistake. It’s level nine No. 3 mission. I’m taking it,” Ye Yuan said.
Right then, there were many people who also recovered from the shock. Their gaze when looking at Ye Yuan was filled with amusement.
