After a few moments, Chen Che gathered together what he had collected from the three of them.

The most important thing these three people carried on them was the elixir.

These elixirs were divided into three categories by Chen Che.

The first category is cultivation pills.

This elixir Pang Zhou carried the most, there were twelve pieces.

These twelve are all True Qi Pills, and in terms of quality, they are one level higher than the True Qi Pills he obtained in the Divine Fire Sect.

In addition to the True Qi Pill, he also found three Soul Nourishing Pills from the robed old man.

This Soul Nourishing Pill is an elixir for refining the soul, and under normal circumstances, it can only be taken by martial artists who have passed through the Divine Realm and above.

The second category is the healing and detoxification pill, and there are always twenty or thirty pills.

This kind of pill is also the most carried by Pang Zhou, just the high-grade healing pill of the Heavenly Pill, he has three on him.

The last category is special elixirs.

There is only one pill of this kind, and it is called the Soul Cleansing Pill.

This soul-cleansing pill has only one effect, and that is to purify the soul.

If a martial artist born in Great Xia swallowed this elixir, he would probably be able to wipe out the mark of the Gate of Reincarnation in the Divine Soul.

Although this elixir was not of much use to him who was about to step into the Divine Realm, in terms of value, this elixir was likely to be higher than all the other pills combined.

The reason why Pang Zhou brought this elixir was either because he was preparing to recruit a certain genius, or he was afraid that he would be contaminated with the breath of the Gate of Reincarnation after entering Great Xia.

In addition to the elixir, Chen Che also found some equipment.

But most of this gear is tailor-made.

For example, the gloves on Pang Zhou's hands can only convey a certain kind of strength.

He had no choice but to sell this kind of equipment for his own use.

Of course, to be on the safe side, he will rework it before selling it.

Finally, there are some tokens, seven in total.

In addition to the Xuantian Order, there are also three identity tokens and three clearance tokens.

……

After packing up everything, Chen Che began to dispose of the corpse.

Half a day later.

Inside the Divine Fire City.

Fan Yu saw Chen Che return safely, and his mood was a little complicated.

In fact, it didn't take long for Liu Cheng and Jia Jin to report the situation to him.

When he learned that the Pang family wanted to kill the people of their Tiantong Trading Company, he was extremely angry in his heart.

But after he calmed down, he faintly hoped that this person would not come back.

After all, as long as this person can't come back, then he can save a broken pill.

As for the paperwork, I've already got it anyway.

Who would have thought that as soon as this thought popped into his mind, this person would come back.

"This person not only dares to hold the Pang family hostage, but also has the ability to escape from the Pang family.

This kind of unscrupulous and powerful person should not be provoked. ”

Thinking of this, Fan Yu immediately showed a smile of surprise on his face, and then said angrily:

"It's good that Your Excellency is back!

Your Excellency! I already know about the Pang family, and our Tiantong Commercial Bank will definitely find the Pang family to settle this account! ”

Chen Che smiled and went straight to the point: "Shopkeeper Fan, I have completed this task of leading the way, should you break the Xuandan for me next?" ”

Fan Yu did not shirk the slightest.

"Your Excellency will sit here for a while, and I'll go get Dan."

With that, he turned and walked away.

After waiting for about half an hour, Fan Yu turned back with a small wooden box.

"What is in this wooden box is the Broken Xuandan, Your Excellency will check it."

Chen Che heard the words and took the small wooden box.

When opened, it contained a jade pill bottle.

Chen Che took out the pill bottle, then carefully uncorked the bottle and glanced inside.

The pill bottle contained a light green Great Dan, and its appearance, size, and smell were no different from the Broken Xuandans mentioned in the Dan Book.

After confirming that this was the Breaking Xuan Pill, Chen Che put away the pill bottle.

"Shopkeeper Fan, since the Xuandan has arrived, then I will leave."

Saying that, Chen Che stood up and prepared to leave.

Seeing this, Fan Yu couldn't help but remind again: "Your Excellency over there of the Pang family don't worry, even if those people are arrogant, they won't dare to chase after Shenhuo City." ”

"yes, I see.

By the way, I asked Tiantong Commercial Bank to help investigate the matter, and I asked the shopkeeper Fan to bother more. ”

Chen Che turned around and left, and it didn't take long for him to disappear at the end of the street.

……

After returning to the stronghold of the Survival Alliance, Chen Che immediately went to the cave near the stronghold and began to retreat and cultivate.

This time, he got a lot of pills from Pang Zhou, so he didn't save anymore, and directly took out the Heaven Replenishing Pill he had obtained from the Divine Fire Sect before, and turned on the extreme high-pressure state.

Three days passed in a flash.

Chen Che finally touched the bottleneck of the Divine Realm.

Without the slightest hesitation, he directly took out the Broken Xuan Pill and swallowed it.

After the Xuan Pill entered his abdomen, it quickly dissolved, and after it was completely dissolved, an indescribable strange force rushed towards his brain along the meridians of his body.

Then there was a tingling sensation in the brain.

At the same time, a large amount of innate true qi between heaven and earth gathered and quickly submerged into his body, eventually forming a true qi flow that continued to circulate around his body.

Chen Che felt that some strange change was taking place in his body.

In addition to being stronger in the flesh and having more innate qi to control, he also felt as if a young sprout was struggling to break through some kind of obstacle in his mind, trying to break through the ground.

And these true qi in the body are the nourishment of this young shoot.

"The sign of stepping into the realm of the gods is to be able to communicate with the innate true qi between heaven and earth...... Greatly increase your True Qi mobilization ability and True Qi recovery speed.

And the medium through which martial artists communicate the innate true qi between heaven and earth is called the seed of the divine soul. ”

Chen Che couldn't help but recall in his mind the key to impacting the Divine Realm mentioned in the Cold Ice Jin Secret Book.

Not surprisingly, the sprout in his mind that tried to break through the ground was the so-called Divine Soul Seed.

……

One day passes, two days pass.

I don't know how many days have passed, and a slight tremor suddenly sounded in Chen Che's mind.

In the next second, the two pieces of cold ice in his hand were instantly emptied of the cold qi in them.

After these cold qi merged into his body, they turned into a strange force, and all of them poured into his mind.

At the same time, the tremor grew louder and louder.

Gradually, all that remained in his mind was the roar.

Chen Che's face was pale, he clenched his teeth, and silently felt the strange power that was about to break through the ground.

About a quarter of an hour later, a roar suddenly sounded in his head, and he was stunned for a moment.

Then all was silenced.

……

"Hoo ......"

After a long time, Chen Che let out a long breath and slowly opened his eyes.

Feeling the changes in his body, a surging smile appeared on his face.

"I've finally stepped into the realm of the gods."

At this moment, compared to before, in addition to the innate true qi in his body being several times stronger, he also gave birth to a special sixth sense.

This sixth sense can be called inward-looking.

With the help of this ability of inner vision, he could not only "see" the newly born golden divine soul seed in his mind, but also "see" the majestic innate true qi in his body circulating in the meridians.

In the past, he could only feel the innate true qi in his body at most, but now he could "see" it.

In addition, he could "see" that the cave was filled with icy true qi.

These icy true qi seemed to have a soul suddenly, giving him a feeling of being summoned at an imminent moment.

After Chen Che stretched out his hand, the golden seed in his mind trembled slightly, and then those cold ice true qi in the air took the initiative to converge towards him.

"This is the seed of the soul...... It's magical. ”

Chen Che muttered.

And while the golden seed trembled, he clearly saw a black mark the thickness of a hair faintly on the seed.

Obviously, this black mark is the imprint left on him by the Gate of Reincarnation.

If he didn't have this brand, he would use the seed of his divine soul to communicate the innate true qi between heaven and earth, and he would immediately trigger the gate of reincarnation and take his divine soul away.

And there is this imprint...... Wherever he dies, he may be transformed into an evil spirit.

Chen Che stood up and didn't bother with the mark.

This mark is something that many people want to get rid of, but he doesn't want to yet.

Chen Che walked slowly towards the outside of the cave.

After stepping into the Psychic Realm, his state of mind also changed slightly.

In Great Xia, the martial artists of the Tongshen Realm are rare, and the combined strength of the Jishi Alliance, the Imperial City Army, and the Fengyi Army is estimated to be no more than ten people.

And now he has become one of them.

This gave rise to an indescribable sense of steadfastness in his heart.

Outside the cave, it was snowing heavily, and as far as the eye could see, there was a white expanse everywhere.

Chen Che stretched out his hand and took a snowflake in his hand, quietly watching the snowflake melt in his hand.

"Alliance leader, you broke through?"

Not far away, Shen Kunpeng walked over wearing a big coat, looking extremely excited.

"Well, how many days have I been in retreat?"

Chen Che asked.

"Twenty days."

Shen Kunpeng replied.

"It's been twenty days, and time flies."

Chen Che sighed softly.

It was only late autumn before the retreat, and the first snow of winter began to fall after this retreat.

And winter is precisely the time when the Ice True Qi is most active.

He could just do what he wanted this season.

"Alliance Leader...... Is there any bad news you want to hear? ”

Shen Kunpeng looked at Chen Che, the excitement on his face gradually faded, and it was replaced by complexity.

"What's the bad news?"

Chen Che said in a calm tone.

Shen Kunpeng sighed lightly and replied, "Five days ago, Yunzhou, the base camp of the Fengyi Army, fell......

The remnants of the Fengyi army were scattered all over the country, and although they were still resisting, they were already at the end of their crossbows and could not hold out for long. ”

Chen Che's face changed slightly when he heard this.

In fact, since the alliance of the Imperial City Army and the Jishi League, the decline of the Fengyi Army has been quite obvious.

But he didn't expect that the Fengyi army couldn't hold out even for a month.

The defeat of Feng Yijun is a pity, but he cares more about the safety of his teacher.

"What about the leaders of the Bongyi Army? And what about those great Confucians? Where did they go? ”

Chen Che asked in a deep voice.

Shen Kunpeng replied: "They seem to have been led by a group of masters of the Fengyi Army to break through...... It is said that in the process of breaking through, he also lost a master of the Channeling Realm. ”

"Lao Shen, let people investigate the whereabouts of these people, and focus on a Confucian named Wang Jingming."

Speaking of this, Chen Che suddenly thought of something, and asked:

"By the way, how are the Imperial City Army and the Jishi Alliance?

After destroying the Fengyi army, will they continue to fight? ”

Shen Kunpeng shook his head slightly, and said with a worried face: "No, they have merged, and now they are headed by the Imperial City Army, supplemented by the Jishi Alliance."

Now that the situation in Daxia has become completely clear, I estimate that the governor of Shenhuo Prefecture will soon jump out and make a statement.

Alliance Leader...... I wonder what your plans are for the future? ”

"Lao Shen, we are also old acquaintances, you don't need to call me one by one.

My name is Chen Che, you can just call me by my name in the future. ”

Chen Che said.

"What about Chen Wen?"

Shen Kunpeng asked tentatively.

Chen Che chuckled and replied: "What Chen Wen, there will be no Chen Wen in the future, I am Chen Che."

Those who have a grudge against me, or those who have a grudge, even if they come to me. ”

Speaking of this, Chen Che looked at Shen Kunpeng and said meaningfully: "Old Shen, my plans for the future are put aside for the time being, what I want to know is what are your plans for the future?" ”

Shen Kunpeng's expression froze when he heard this, and his expression became a little embarrassed.

Chen Che said directly: "Old Shen, if my guess is correct, you and Old Tang both want to leave Great Xia, right?" ”

"Hmm...... There is a good saying, it is better to die than to live.

We old guys don't have much longevity left, and if we want to continue to live, we can only pursue a higher martial arts realm.

However, Great Xia is full of evil cults, and cultivation resources are very expensive, so we can only cultivate to the Qi Transformation Realm at most......

If you want to break through the Qi Transformation Realm, you can only leave Great Xia. ”

Shen Kunpeng replied.

Chen Che nodded slightly.

During this time of retreat, he figured out a lot of things.

For example, why did Great Xia emphasize literature over military force.

In the final analysis, it is because the environment of Great Xia cannot retain powerful warriors.

Therefore, we can only emphasize literature and ignore military force.

"Lao Shen, this matter is on me."

Chen Che decisively agreed.

Thinking that when he first met Shen Kunpeng, Shen Kunpeng placed a heavy bet on him, presumably for today's promise.

At this point, he changed his words.

"But before I can do that, I'll have to take care of my own business......"

Then he told his father Chen Zhao about it.

Now, there is no need for him to hide anything.

……

A moment later, Chen Che and Shen Kunpeng returned to the stronghold together.

Inside the stronghold, most of the people were hiding at home at this time, and only some children were playing in the snow outside.

Wang Rou and Gu Shu sat in front of the door, chatting and doing needlework.

Chen Che stood in the distance and watched this scene silently.

At this moment, a white spirit bird in the sky flew towards this direction, and finally landed on Shen Kunpeng's shoulder.

Shen Kunpeng took a note from the white spirit bird's foot.

When he opened the note, he immediately raised his head and looked at Chen Che, and said in a deep voice: "There is news from Tiantong Commercial Bank, saying that they have already checked the matter you want to investigate, so you have time to go to them." ”
