Unstoppable Martial Arts: Starting with brother's wife and young sister Chapter 900 - 480: This Demon Beast Is Quite a Chatterbox (3)

Chen Xuan swiftly understood his present condition. As his comprehension of the Nine Elements Dao Skill deepened, his innate talent surged upward too.

Furthermore, unlike personally stepping in, this approach, despite being slower, promised far greater rewards.

"Master!"

Qin Ke wrapped up his cultivation, shot to his feet at once, and paid his respects.

"Getting better and better. Before the Burial Ground opens, reaching the fifth layer of the Dao Realm isn’t hopeless."

Chen Xuan clapped his shoulder, brimming with satisfaction.

As his sole disciple, far more devoted than a blood son, he yearned to witness his relentless growth in strength.

"Thank you, Master."

"No need for such words between master and disciple."

Chen Xuan eased into a seat, "Oh, starting tomorrow, get someone to gather some Dao Realm demon beasts and deliver them to Elder Tang."

"I brought back a demon beast myself that I need!"

"Also prepare some over ten-thousand-year-old great herbs, also for it."

"A demon beast?"

Qin Ke revealed a puzzled expression.

"Yes, a Peak of Seventh Layer Dao Realm demon beast. Elder Tang needs its essence blood for alchemy."

"Yes, I will immediately send word."

Qin Ke was well aware of how vital Elder Tang’s pills were to his master, so he wasted no time.

"Hmm!"

Chen Xuan nodded, then headed back to Central Island.

…

Dinner time.

Lan Meng’Er whipped up the feast, featuring all the favorites of this father-son duo.

"How is the cultivation going recently?"

Xiaoqi had been training at the lake bottom alongside Lord Rabbit lately, and Chen Xuan hadn’t laid eyes on him for days, so he inquired about progress.

"It’s okay. For the martial cultivation, it’s about to break through. As for the spirit cultivation... Lord Rabbit told me to suppress it for now, saying because I’ve just had a breakthrough, I should familiarize and stabilize it, no rush."

"Hmm!"

Chen Xuan nodded, "Then listen to it."

After all, in the Spirit Realm, Lord Rabbit ranked as a major powerhouse, and on Martial Dao matters, Chen Xuan couldn’t match up.

"Let me know in advance when you’re about to break through."

"Hmm!"

…

"Boom!"

A deafening explosion rocked the air.

Chen Xuan, deep in training, jolted awake from the thunderous blast.

"Elder Tang..."

Feeling the spiritual Qi churn wildly on Elder Tang’s island, he vanished from the study in a flash.

"This..."

Chen Xuan stared at the devastation before him.

The whole row of buildings lay in rubble, while Tang Gu stood utterly bare, his body charred black amid shattered alchemy furnace fragments.

And the splattered medicinal liquid.

The Winged Spin Dragon Beast, meanwhile, sprawled feebly on the ground, eyes barely fluttering.

"Failed!"

Tang Gu glanced at Chen Xuan and stated flatly.

Furnace explosion... nothing unusual!

Especially for crafting an Azure Star River Pill, this supreme Body Tempering Elixir—furnace blasts were par for the course.

"It’s fine as long as you’re okay, really gave me a scare. If necessary, you could set up a formation, this disturbance is really a bit much."

"Then you set it up, I’m out of time."

"And we’re running low on alchemy furnaces, have someone send more over."

Then he plopped down on the ground, ignoring Chen Xuan entirely, as he meticulously reviewed the furnace explosion details.

Witnessing this, Chen Xuan let out a helpless sigh.

His form then materialized high above the island, spiritual power sweeping outward methodically, and soon the array stood complete!

"My current grasp of arrays isn’t half bad."

Chen Xuan boasted with pride.

And that was without any formal array training—otherwise, he’d rival those elite Array Masters.

He then instructed Qin Ke to fetch more premium alchemy furnaces.

Orders dispatched, he returned to Central Island and erected yet another array—who knew what chaos Tang Gu might unleash next, with the women in seclusion, better not disturb them.

This one took him hours to perfect.

Gazing contentedly at his handiwork, the delay stemmed from centering the array on the spring.

Yet the results shone brilliantly—at least Dao Realm cultivators couldn’t pierce it under normal circumstances.

"This should have no problem now."

…

Ten days later!

In the study, Chen Xuan suddenly snapped his eyes open,

"Another explosion of the furnace!"

He shook his head with a wry grin.

Though no sound penetrated, he sensed the turmoil on the island clearly, and this blast packed far more punch than before.

Of course, he understood why.

Also...

"Elder Tang’s mansion on the island likely needs rebuilding."

Last time, Chen Xuan offered to repair the structures, but Tang Gu shot it down.

His excuse was ironclad.

After all, until the Azure Star River Pill succeeded, no mansion could endure—fixing it was pointless.

With him putting it that way, what choice did Chen Xuan have?

He had to let it go.

Still... eyeing the Winged Spin Dragon Beast’s pitiful state, despite his initial reluctance to meddle, its weakness tugged at him, and he departed the study.

"How are you doing?"

The once-limp Winged Spin Dragon Beast popped its eyes open, looking utterly mistreated, eyes even rimming red, "Help, this old man is simply inhuman, last time he nearly drained all my essence blood at once."

First time, one drop.

Second time, he demanded three drops outright, even threatened to roast it if refused.

In the end, under Tang Gu’s brutal pressure, the Winged Spin Dragon Beast yielded, squeezing out three drops and leaving itself barely half a drop.

This existence was brutally tougher than back in the Dark Moon.

"Look at me now, seriously take a look, I can’t go on like this."

Gone was any trace of a mighty demon beast’s dignity, replaced by a pitiable child’s grievances, as it vented to Chen Xuan.

"Enough!"

"It’s not as tragic as you make it sound, I’ll get you some high-level Dao Realm demon beasts later for recuperation, and some over ten-thousand-year-old great herbs for consumption."

"They can’t be weaker than Fifth Layer Dao Realm, otherwise no effect."

"Great herbs best be over fifty-thousand years, otherwise also no effect."

"Damn!"
