On the way to the Alchemist Guild, Ya Fei continuously introduced the scenery and interesting stories along the way to Medusa, like close sisters, completely unlike their previous rivalry in the Eternal Heaven World.
Xiao Jietian looked at the two with a strange expression, marveling at how quickly women could forge friendships, though he wondered if they were genuine or superficial.
Although Queen Medusa still maintained a cold and aloof expression, a hint of a smile occasionally flickered in her eyes, clearly enjoying Ya Fei's enthusiastic care.
Upon arriving at the Alchemist Guild, Xiao Jietian presented his guest elder token. Seeing that he was the champion of the current Alchemist Grand Assembly and learning of his intentions, the guards dared not show any disrespect, leading Xiao Jietian and the others to the Guild Master's office.
After knocking and hearing a response from inside, they stepped through the door pushed open by the guard and sat down in front of Fa Ma.
"So it's little friend Xiao Jietian, a rare guest indeed! I thought you had already left the Imperial Capital," Fa Ma, the Guild Master, said in surprise, raising his head to see Xiao Jietian sitting before him and the two women standing behind him.
"I had a few things to take care of, so I stayed here for a while," Xiao Jietian said with a slight smile.
"What can I help you with, old man? If it's something I can assist with, please don't hesitate to ask," Fa Ma said kindly, stroking his beard.
"I came this time for some ingredients for the Soul Fusion Pill."
"Ingredients for the Soul Fusion Pill? Do you need this pill because your soul has a problem?" Fa Ma asked in surprise upon hearing Xiao Jietian's words.
"No. It's just for a friend of mine. I wanted to ask if you have the ingredients here."
Fa Ma carefully scrutinized Xiao Jietian, confirming that what he said was true, then slowly rose and walked toward the huge shelf behind him.
Countless medicinal texts and material information were placed on it, and he continuously flipped through them.
"Little friend Xiao Jietian, I'm truly sorry, but the Guild currently doesn't have the ingredients for it. Not only are its effects niche, but the ingredients are also extremely rare. I, this old man, am powerless to help. However, I can post an exchange quest for you; perhaps some Alchemist out there might have them," Fa Ma said, shaking his head and sighing as he sat back in his seat.
"In that case, I will trouble the Guild Master," Xiao Jietian said.
Xiao Jietian left a message stone for Fa Ma and, to his surprise, taught him how to use it.
Leaving the Alchemist Guild, Queen Medusa's face was filled with disappointment. Ya Fei, seeing her expression, linked arms with her and comforted her with a soft voice.
Queen Medusa was not one to be overly sentimental and quickly composed herself.
"Let's go, let's head back first. There's still plenty of time; we can definitely gather them. As long as you gather them, I can help you refine them," Xiao Jietian said, gently patting her shoulder. With a wave of his hand, the three instantly returned to the Eternal Heaven World.
The next two days were incredibly fulfilling for Xiao Jietian. He was either holding multi-person concerts, cultivating, or refining pills. He also made a trip to the Yun Empire to acquire a batch of poisonous medicinal ingredients, and the Yun Empire showed no abnormalities.
"Yun'er, if you refine this origin, you'll gain a special physique, and you won't have to envy them anymore," Xiao Jietian said, half-reclining and embracing Yun Yun, as he infused the Sword Spirit Body Origin into her body.
Xiao Jietian had already noticed that every time they practiced cultivation or honed their Dou Techniques, she was very envious of their special physiques. Although it was subtle, Xiao Jietian still detected it.
Fei Yan's Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python, Little Doctor Immortal's Calamity Poison Body, Qing Lin's Triple Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils, Ya Fei's Frozen Spirit Body—only she had an ordinary physique.
Watching their cultivation speed, she also felt a sense of urgency.
"What is this?" Yun Yun propped herself up, feeling a ball of light in her Dantian, imbued with sharp sword qi.
"This is the Sword Spirit Body Origin. If you refine it, you'll gain a special physique. And this is the most compatible cultivation method for it: Wind Elegance Sword Dance."
Wind Elegance Sword Dance was more than just a cultivation method; it also contained many swordplay fundamentals, such as thrust, chop, sweep, hook, parry, and point. The cultivation method involved comprehending the sword, and one could even derive their own suitable sword moves from it.
It also included a domain-type Dou Technique: Wind Elegance Sword Domain, which would form a domain of crisscrossing sword qi around the user, with wind blades falling like rain, making those within it struggle to cope.
"Really?" Yun Yun's eyes immediately lit up, and she felt dizzy. This surprise caught her off guard.
Her entire body immediately sat upright, and her body swayed.
Xiao Jietian, unable to bear it any longer, started a new concert.
An hour later, Xiao Jietian put on his clothes and walked out of the room, leaving Yun Yun sitting cross-legged on the bed, refining her physique.
Watching Queen Medusa and Little Doctor Immortal continuously drill Qing Lin and Ya Fei, Xiao Jietian revealed a satisfied smile.
Now, Little Doctor Immortal was at the peak of a four-star Dou Zong and was close to breaking through to a five-star Dou Zong. Queen Medusa was a one-star peak Dou Zong.
Qing Lin was already a Dou Spirit, and Ya Fei was a five-star Great Dou Master. Both had consumed the Three-Line Azure Spirit Pill given by Xiao Jietian.
"Tsk tsk, isn't this a certain busybody? Finished with your work? You actually came out unscathed."
This playful remark, without asking, definitely came from Queen Medusa.
"My body is doing great, absolutely fantastic," Xiao Jietian said, three black lines appearing on his face as he looked at Queen Medusa, who once again had a hint of her playful Medusa side.
Ever since she got familiar with the others, he felt that her queenly aura was gone—of course, only here; outside, she still maintained her full queenly demeanor.
"You all continue; I'm going out to handle some matters," Xiao Jietian said, directly interrupting Ya Fei and Qing Lin's thoughts of escaping their ordeal. Ignoring their pleading gazes, he turned and strode away.
If he didn't leave soon, Queen Medusa might even look for an opportunity to spar with him and beat him up. The situation was not in his favor; it was time to run.
"Ah! No..." Ya Fei and Qing Lin cried out in despair.
"What, are you not satisfied with me helping you practice your Dou Techniques?" Queen Medusa looked at the two of them dangerously, her cold voice like it came from the Nine Nether Hell.
Immediately, the two became small and helpless, trembling and forcing smiles.
"Sister Fei Yan, you're the best! I super like you, and Sister Xian'er too!"
In an instant, their will to survive exploded. If the two of them were to get a double beating, it would really hurt.
Xiao Jietian, walking further away, looked at their harmonious appearance, a smile on his lips harder to suppress than an AK. His 'fish pond' was stable, the 'sea king' was safe. He thanked Brother Cheng's spirit in heaven for his blessings.
Xiao Jietian no longer paid attention and appeared directly in the Dou Po World.
He arrived at the Miter Family and found Teng Shan and Elder Hai. As for Xiao Yan, he had left early, saying he was returning to his family.
"Elder Hai, Elder Teng Shan, are you all ready?" Xiao Jietian asked directly, approaching the two.
"Everything is ready; we can leave at any time. However, there are quite a lot of people, including their belongings and family members. Are you sure there won't be any problems?"
"Not to mention less than a thousand people here, even ten thousand would be no problem," Xiao Jietian said, waving his hand, indicating there was no need to worry about that.
Xiao Jietian had already divided the regions in the Eternal Heaven World, and he had also designated areas for the buildings within it.
Xiao Jietian had completely redesigned the entire Eternal Heaven World.
At the center of the entire world stood five giant peaks, interweaving with each other. Xiao Jietian planned to set up a great protective formation later, but it was a pity that the system was an artificial intelligence; otherwise, he might even be able to "borrow one."
Xiao Jietian's palace complex was on the highest peak in the center. Many palaces were also situated on the mountainside, prepared by Xiao Jietian for his future descendants. The remaining four peaks were all of equal height.
The Xiao Family, Boundless Heaven Hall's inner hall, and outer hall each had one, with the remaining one temporarily empty.
Outside the peaks were several city-like structures, used to accommodate sect family members or other people.
(If this small world is written into the Great Thousand Worlds later, it will merge into the Great Thousand Worlds to become a domain.)
"Then gather them all together, and I'll take them in," Xiao Jietian instructed the two.
"Yes, Hall Master." * 2
The two acted decisively, immediately beginning to mobilize.
At the same time, in the Eternal Heaven World, at the peak palace complex of the highest mountain, in Xiao Jietian's bedchamber.
"Boom!"
A sharp sword qi shot into the sky, instantly tearing a large hole in the palace roof.
The four people who were practicing martial arts were startled by the sudden sound, their hands trembling.
Looking at the sword qi that reached the sky, and then at the palace roof, the four revealed mischievous smiles.
"Oh no, Xiao Jietian's palace exploded! Someone's in for it."
