Chapter 747: Chapter 294: The Grand Assembly 4

He knew that True Essence Pills were extremely important to any master in the True Essence Realm. Although Elder Pei was a senior cultivator of that Realm, he definitely didn’t have an endless supply of Elixirs.

Pei Tingchun’s eyes widened. “Just take them! Why are you being so polite with me? I’m old, and my Cultivation has slowed. For me, these Elixirs are more for maintenance. But you’re different. You have a solid foundation and are at a stage of rapid, diligent advancement. This is precisely when you need a large amount of resources. In your hands, these Elixirs will be far more valuable than they are in mine.”

Seeing that Chen Qing still wanted to refuse, his tone softened, filled with sincerity. “Besides, the future hope of our True Martial Lineage rests on you and Qu River. If you can mature sooner and bring glory to the True Martial name, what are a few Elixirs? Even if I have to use a few less each month, I’ll be happy! If it really comes to it, I still have some Contribution Points saved up. I can always go to the Sect’s Secret Vault to exchange for more if needed. I won’t neglect myself!”

Pei Tingchun’s words were sincere; it was clearly a well-considered decision.

Chen Qing took a deep breath and no longer stood on ceremony. He gripped the Jade Bottle tightly and bowed deeply to Pei Tingchun. “Elder Pei, for your generous gift… this disciple is eternally grateful! Chen Qing will never forget this kindness!”

Seeing this, a gratified smile finally appeared on Pei Tingchun’s face. He patted Chen Qing’s shoulder. “Good! That’s more like it! Remember, focus on your Cultivation and reach a higher Realm as soon as possible. That is the best way to repay me and the True Martial Lineage.”

He paused for a moment before adding, “From now on, I will have someone deliver these five Elixirs to you every month. You don’t need to worry about this matter anymore. Just focus on your Cultivation.”

After speaking, Pei Tingchun didn’t linger and strode away.

With the support of these extra Elixirs, his fixed monthly allotment, and the blessing of his [Heaven Rewards Diligence] Fate Plate, Chen Qing was able to maintain an extremely high speed of Cultivation.

He trained diligently every day without fail. Besides stabilizing his True Essence Realm Cultivation, he repeatedly refined his two newly acquired Divine Techniques, the Mountain and River Seal and the Profound Turtle Spirit Armor Technique. Occasionally, he would also enter the Grotto Heaven to cultivate.

However, Chen Qing never ventured deep into the Grotto Heaven Core Region.

Ever since obtaining the Taixu Scripture, he had a faint feeling that his connection to Red Nightmare Mountain—or rather, to the core region—had deepened.

To avoid disturbing the deeper unknowns again, he cautiously chose to cultivate in the outer areas. Even so, the dense Primordial Qi still allowed his progress to far exceed what was possible in the outside world.

Time flew by. The winter snow melted, and the signs of spring grew stronger. In the blink of an eye, three months had quietly passed.

On this day, inside the Quiet Chamber, Chen Qing slowly finished his practice. The potent True Essence circulating around him gradually calmed, withdrawing into his Dantian Sea of Qi.

[Heaven Rewards Diligence, Success is Certain]

[Taixu Scripture: First Layer (6125/10000)]

[Divine Technique: Mountain and River Seal – Minor Achievement (1125/5000)]

[Divine Technique: Profound Turtle Spirit Armor Technique – Minor Achievement (987/5000)]

[Dragon Elephant Wisdom Vajra Body: Fourth Layer (12183/15000)]

[Biluo Jinghong Spear: Great Success (7718/10000)]

[True Martial Seal: Extreme Realm]

…..

Looking at the data on the panel, Chen Qing nodded slightly.

After three months of hard cultivation, his proficiency with the Mountain and River Seal and the Profound Turtle Spirit Armor Technique had steadily increased, and his use of the Divine Techniques had grown more refined.

The Dragon Elephant Wisdom Vajra Body was also steadily progressing toward the Fifth Layer, making his Flesh Body’s strength and defense even more formidable.

Thanks to the ample supply of True Essence Pills and his own diligent Cultivation, his progress in the Taixu Scripture was also quite rapid. He was not far from the Secondary Tempering.

Moreover, he had cultivated the True Martial Seal to the Extreme Realm, giving him an unexpected trump card.

In addition, his Biluo Jinghong Spear had progressed by leaps and bounds thanks to his True Martial Spear Intent.

Chen Qing stood up, his bones letting out a series of soft cracks. His whole body was brimming with qi and blood, and his spirit was full.

He pushed open the door of the Quiet Chamber. The afternoon sun spilled into the courtyard, carrying the warmth of spring.

Qing Dai, who had been waiting outside the door, immediately came forward. Her expression was more solemn than usual. “Senior Brother, you’ve come out of seclusion. A messenger from the Dubhe Pavilion just delivered a letter. They’re holding an emergency meeting tonight at 7 p.m. in the Dubhe Pavilion on the main peak. All members of the Dubhe Pavilion within the Sect must attend.”

‘They’re holding a meeting?’ Chen Qing’s gaze sharpened upon hearing this.

‘The Dubhe Pavilion is the Sect’s wartime core; they wouldn’t summon all members unless it was for a major event.’

“Yes, here is the letter.”

Qing Dai handed Chen Qing a piece of stationery stamped with a star pattern.

Chen Qing took it and glanced at it. “Alright, I understand.”

His tone was calm, but his mind was already racing.

‘Whatever they’re discussing at this meeting is likely to be a serious matter.’

As evening fell, the afterglow of the sunset painted the peaks of the Celestial Treasure Upper Sect in a layer of golden-red.

Chen Qing changed into a clean set of True Disciple robes and hung the Profound Black Token representing his Human Position in the Dubhe Pavilion from his waist. Only then did he leave his small courtyard on True Martial Peak and head toward the main peak.

The Dubhe Pavilion was located behind the main hall on the main peak, at almost its highest point. With its magnificent, soaring eaves, it seemed as if one could reach out and touch the starry sky.

All who could set foot here were the true core of the Celestial Treasure Upper Sect: the Elders of various lineages and Stewards with real authority.

The closer he got, the more powerful the auras of the sect members he encountered became.

Along the way, people would occasionally glance at Chen Qing—some curious, some appraising, and some giving a friendly nod.

Chen Qing met each gaze with a calm expression, his steps steady.

After ascending the last White Jade step, a massive hall appeared before him. It was constructed entirely from some kind of dark Spirit Wood and exuded an ancient, majestic aura.

Above the hall doors, the two large, ancient seal-script characters for “Dubhe” were written with powerful strokes, faintly shimmering with starlight.

A Steward stood at the entrance, checking Tokens. Upon seeing the Profound Black Token at Chen Qing’s waist, the Steward bowed respectfully and stepped aside.

Stepping into the main hall of the Dubhe Pavilion, he found the interior was far more spacious than it appeared from the outside.

The ceiling was not solid but a deep illusion of a starry sky, where countless points of light flickered like the true stars in their celestial Circulation.

In the center of the hall was a wide-open area, surrounded by several circular tiers of seats. Ascending in height, they corresponded to the Human Position, the Earth Balance Position, and the Dubhe Position.

Many people had already arrived and were talking in low voices, making the atmosphere feel somewhat tense.
