Chen Xuan emerges from his cultivation session after achieving a significant, though incomplete, breakthrough to the jade bone state. Boosted by his newfound power and ability to rival peak seventh-layer Dao Realm cultivators, he probes the limits of his physical strength. He challenges the rabbit to a sparring match, eager to test his capabilities through a direct confrontation.

A full half-hour had elapsed.

Both Chen Xuan and the rabbit displayed hideously bruised and swollen visages.

What began as a simple, measured sparring session had spiraled out of control; the rabbit eventually grasped that Chen Xuan’s physical form was scarcely less formidable than his own.

Consequently, the beast ceased all restraint.

The atmosphere turned incendiary, and they devolved into a brutal, no-holds-barred skirmish.

Chen Xuan landed a heavy blow to the creature's face—*crack*—shattering several bones instantly.

Naturally, the rabbit refused to yield, retaliating with a ferocious kick to Chen Xuan's forehead that left it ominously concaved.

His once striking appearance was utterly ravaged.

The spectacle that followed was truly appalling; man and rabbit grappled like common brawlers, resorting to biting one another in desperation.

Driven by the refusal to accept defeat, their techniques grew increasingly savage.

Inevitably, they reached such a miserable state.

"Hiss..."

The rabbit gasped, his frame battered and riddled with fractured bones.

Merely drawing breath felt like torture.

Chen Xuan was in no better shape; with a broken nasal bone and a caved-in forehead, he looked frightening enough to chase stray dogs away at midnight.

"You are absolutely vicious," Chen Xuan spat, glaring at the rabbit while cursing vehemently.

"You held back? Lord Rabbit was nearly beaten to death by your hand!"

The rabbit shot an equally hateful look back, all pretense of the master-servant dynamic forgotten.

He was a Demon Roar Heaven-Swallowing Rabbit—a spiritual beast, yes, but at heart, a creature of pure ferocity.

Had he not curbed his true nature, he might have devoured Chen Xuan whole.

Off to the side, Xiaoqi and Qin Ke found the sight utterly repulsive and impossible to watch.

"Still intent on trading blows?"

The rabbit felt deeply aggrieved; this was perhaps the most brutal thrashing he had ever endured, worse than any punishment from the ancient monsters of his past.

"Fight? To hell with that!"

Chen Xuan rolled his eyes. In this state, how could they possibly continue?

At the response, the rabbit felt a fresh wave of irritation; he had been silently plotting a secret revenge.

Now, however, that hope was extinguished.

Observing the rabbit’s frantic, agitated expression, Chen Xuan felt a surge of amusement and smirked, though he immediately winced.

"Hiss... damn, that hurts!"

"Tell me, how did I measure up?" Chen Xuan eventually inquired.

"Based on physicality alone, you are barely inferior to a Dao Realm level seven... or at least the mid-stage."

"To be precise, since we eschewed all spiritual power, it is hard to say. Shall we test it again?" The rabbit tempted him, plainly refusing to concede.

"Enough. Your transparent ploys hold no power over me. Dream on!"

"Xiaoqi, let us head home for a meal!" With that command, he vanished into the air.

"Damn you!" The rabbit roared in frustration before setting off himself.

"I am going back to eat as well," Xiaoqi added, departing, leaving only Qin Ke behind, who shook his head in resignation before returning to his own island.

Upon seeing the state of Chen Xuan, Lan Meng’Er was genuinely horrified, nearly dissolving into tears.

However, after hearing his explanation, she was left both stunned and deeply amused.

One could hardly find words for a man who looked like this after a bout with his own spiritual beast.

"How long will you require to recover?"

"Hmm... a few days should suffice." His physical body was so exceptionally robust that repair took time.

Night fell.

The delicate Lan Meng’Er found herself unable to withstand Chen Xuan’s persistent demands.

Seeing his restless state, she suggested, "Why not seek out more women? The sisters are currently in seclusion and unlikely to emerge soon."

She felt pity for him, fearing that his pent-up energy was causing him discomfort.

"Hmm... we shall discuss that later. Sleep now."

Finding suitable partners was no simple task; they were not like everyday vegetables to be bought upon a whim.

His current standards had shifted; even women of general beauty barely captured his interest.

...

The Ten Thousand People Mountain Range.

"Elder Tang, I have arrived."

The voice echoed into the room before its owner had even crossed the threshold.

Tang Gu heard the summon and his brows furrowed immediately.

Glancing up at the smirking Chen Xuan, he grumbled, "You brat are the last person I wish to encounter."

"Your words are hurtful," Chen Xuan replied, entirely unabashed, and took a seat opposite him.

"Thank you, Elder Tang." These words were offered with true sincerity.

Tang Gu’s face seemed lined with deeper wrinkles, his appearance worn and weary. Though the room had been tidied, the lingering scorched marks from a furnace explosion were still clearly visible.

It was evident he had invested immense effort into refining the Azure Star River Pill.

Despite the old man’s complaints, he had never truly rejected the task.

This realization touched Chen Xuan deeply.

"Enough of your silver-tongued flattery. It is my lot in life to deal with your demands, poor old man that I am." Tang Gu mocked himself with intention.

"However, the work is nearly complete. Since you have provided the essential herbs for the Azure Star River Pill, I can proceed with the refinement immediately."

Even if his cultivation talent was unremarkable, his mastery over formations and alchemy was nothing short of legendary.

"So soon!" Chen Xuan was startled. He had come primarily to check on the elder’s health, never expecting that the pill, a major surprise for him, was actually within reach.

He was within a tenth of achieving a full jade bone, and he held deep hope that the pill would prove useful.

Of course, should it fail to provide sufficient benefits for him, he could simply pass it to Xiaoqi.

As for his own progression... there was still the path of the mother liquid.

"You truly do not understand who you are dealing with!" Tang Gu declared with a haughty air. Though he could not match Chen Xuan in strength, not in alchemy nor in array could the youth ever aspire to challenge his expertise.

"Very well. Since that is decided, you shall accompany me."

"To where?"

"You will see when we arrive. Do you have anything to pack?"

"This old man requires nothing."

As the final word was spoken, a spatial rule enveloped them both, and in an instant, they were gone from the chamber.
