Chapter 429: Primordial Martial Furnace!

"After all, the two vice-presidents and president are gone now. The Pathseeker Society cannot be without a leader for a day!"

"Brother Xiao is unmatched, both in scholarly exams and martial combat. He alone is worth the three of them."

"Brother Xiao is truly the qualified prodigy to lead all disciples of the Primordial Academy in the path of immortality!"

The crowd\'s comments propelled the atmosphere to its peak.

"Me as the president of the Pathseeker Society? Would voting work?" Yun Xiao asked Lian Xi.

With a smile, Lian Xi responded, "Every election involves a voting process, but the Mystic Zenith Temple never discloses the actual vote counts. If it really mattered, the president should have been me or Brother Chi Yang."

Yun Xiao understood. The vote was just for show. If the presidency of the Pathseeker Society was appointed by the Mystic Zenith Temple, how could they let him, a convicted criminal, take the role?

Though it was impossible, seeing the young people\'s excitement, Yun Xiao didn\'t want to dampen their spirits.

"Even if I took down the two vice-presidents and president, the Primordial Academy isn\'t entirely under the control of the Academy Faction."

Fortunately, for a long while after, the Pathseeker Society probably wouldn\'t dare to bully or flaunt their power in the Primordial Academy.

"Brother Xiao, what do you say? Will you take the position?" Ah Yao asked excitedly.

"If I get elected, I\'ll do it," Yun Xiao said cheerfully.

"That would be fantastic! Brothers, let\'s all vote for Brother Xiao!" Ah Yao shouted loudly, and the crowd responded with laughter. This was what it meant to be a leader of the youth!

"Brother Xiao, it would be great if you could really become the president of the Pathseeker Society!"

In the midst of the excitement, Ah Yao let out a slight sigh, clearly understanding the unlikelihood of the situation.

"Does it matter?" Yun Xiao asked.

"It does!" Ah Yao replied through gritted teeth, clearly upset. "Every two years, the Pathseeker Society collects membership fees from all disciples. This is authorized and supported by the Mystic Zenith Temple, supposedly for activity funds, but we never see any activities. The use of the funds is completely opaque, and most of the time, it\'s embezzled by those people!"

"What happens if we don\'t pay?" Yun Xiao inquired.

"Then it\'s big trouble. They have the backing of the Mystic Zenith Temple; they can torture people without facing any consequences, and any slight resistance from us could land us in jail. So, we can only pay up obediently. They control the law enforcement, after all. It\'s precisely because everyone hates them that seeing you trample them today was so satisfying!" Ah Yao looked at Yun Xiao with admiration.

Yun Xiao observed their frustrated gazes and knew the depth of their resentment.

Before today\'s Crown selection, Yun Xiao hadn\'t noticed this. It showed that these people had to hide even their own grievances, treating the Pathseeker Society with utmost respect.

"If you become the president of the Pathseeker Society, it will truly serve the disciples, rather than acting like arrogant vampires!" Ah Yao said passionately.

"No worries. With me here, whether I become president or not, no one can abuse their power in the Primordial Academy," Yun Xiao stated.

"Brother Xiao, you\'re awesome!"

With his words, the young people, regardless of gender, cheered, truly relieving the pressure in their hearts.

They cheered in the Mystic Zenith Temple\'s Square of Righteous Law... How could the Crowns and enforcers, mostly descendants of the Three Immortals, not see? This was a severe provocation of their authority.

"Let them dream a little longer."

"It\'s only these youngsters who would admire a criminal to be executed in three days."

The Crowns scoffed and disappeared into the shadows.

Indeed, the disciples were so desperate for a leader who could stand up against privilege that they had completely forgotten about the impending three-day calamity.

"Right," Ah Yao said to the crowd. "Now that the three presidents are gone, I wonder how the Pathseeker Society will handle the recently collected membership fees?"

Yun Xiao was taken aback and asked, "A new batch of money was collected? How much?"

"Over 100,000 paid up, totaling over 100 million Mid quality Immortal Jades," Ah Yao said gloomily.

"That much?"

That was ten times the assets of Dharma Crown Qin… And it was collected every two years?

"No choice, the Pathseeker Society decrees that the higher your realm, the more you pay. We call it protection money," Ah Yao explained.

Yun Xiao was speechless. The collection of membership fees from all disciples showed how brazen the Three Immortal Lineage had become in the Primordial Academy.

And with the support of the Mystic Zenith Temple, it was official and legal!

"We got used to being robbed. But this time, their three presidents got robbed of their lives, haha..."

This thought served as a small consolation.

Yun Xiao didn\'t delve further into the topic but told everyone, "I have other matters to attend to and must leave first. Everyone, disperse and keep a low profile."

He knew that continuing to attract attention would surely bring trouble. He wasn\'t afraid for himself, but he didn\'t want these passionate youths to suffer any consequences.

"Brother Xiao, aren\'t we going to have a celebration feast? Have a drink together?" Ah Yao asked.

"Feast for what. Everyone go cultivate!" Yun Xiao said sternly.

For cultivators, cultivation was the top priority. Engaging too much in societal activities was meaningless. Hosting a banquet and inviting girls to dance would only turn the dragon-slaying hero into the dragon itself.

"Brother Xiao has spoken, let\'s disperse!"

In an instant, the youths orderly retreated from the Mystic Zenith Temple.

Watching Yun Xiao\'s departing figure, their faces, joyous for so long, finally dimmed.

"He only has three days left, alas."

▬ι══✧⚰️✧══ι▬

In the Divine Dawn Pavilion, returning from the Mystic Zenith Temple, Yun Xiao entered the cultivation room.

Lian Xi was still worried and intended to ask more, but seeing Yun Xiao focusing on cultivation, she held back her words.

"Lian Xi, what should he do?" Liu Yingying stood by the door of the cultivation room, her voice filled with concern.

"I don\'t know." Lian Xi bit her lip and shook her head, her eyes full of worry.

"If only he hadn\'t killed Qin Ziyue. He\'s so powerful, Dean Yu should be able to clear his name personally. He had reasons for those he killed before, right?" Liu Yingying sat on a green stone, speaking helplessly.

"Sister Yingying, didn\'t you dislike him? Why the sudden concern?" Lian Xi asked.

Liu Yingying, flustered, said, "Don\'t get me wrong, I just..."

She stuttered for a while before collecting her thoughts, "I misjudged him before, thinking he was all looks and no substance. But today, I have to admit, your taste is impeccable. This man is too..."

"Too what?"

"Too outstanding." Liu Yingying lowered her head, her face slightly red.

"Outstanding or not, remember he\'s mine!" Lian Xi huffed.

"Hehe, are you jealous?" Liu Yingying teased, "I was just teasing you."

"Really?" Lian Xi looked through the window at Yun Xiao in the cultivation room, "But I\'m still glad that you and the others have finally recognized him."

"It\'s a pity about the Blood Bat Curse; he can\'t escape and only has three days left." Liu Yingying sighed again.

"It won\'t happen." Lian Xi gazed at the young man, her eyes somewhat vacant, murmuring, "No matter the cost, I\'ll make sure he survives."

"Lian Xi..." Liu Yingying was stunned. She had never seen Lian Xi like this before. Such a statement was like a destiny-bound oath.

"You two, are truly destined to be together, both so unique. Perhaps you\'ve been entwined for hundreds of reincarnations," Liu Yingying remarked.

"Hundreds of reincarnations..." Lian Xi silently repeated those words, her eyes fixed on that solitary white figure.

▬ι══✧⚰️✧══ι▬

Inside the cultivation room, Yun Xiao glanced at the blood bat in his palm and locked eyes with it.

"How about it?" Yun Xiao suddenly asked.

"In the Primordial Ruins, there\'s no solution, but for you, it\'s a low-grade technique." Blue Star chuckled. "Do you want to get rid of it now? I can teach you how."

"Not now." Yun Xiao closed his hand, paying it no further attention.

He began to absorb Tian Zhixiu\'s Seed of Creation, the Mystic Golden Dao Embryo.

"With this Mystic Golden Dao Embryo as the foundation for your martial body, cultivate the Primordial Martial Furnace within your body using the Primordial Martial Dao. The Primordial Martial Furnace, independent from the Dantian\'s power and carved out within the flesh, can serve as an augmentative force for your Dantian\'s primordial void, making your combat form more perfect even without merging with the Divine Desolation Physique," Blue Star explained.

"Does Lian Xi have a Primordial Martial Furnace in her body?" Yun Xiao asked.

"Correct. She cultivates in the same way, using the furnace as her foundation, with her Dantian power as auxiliary. So, she\'s a pure Martial Cultivator," Blue Star continued, raising an eyebrow in amusement. "One more thing, hers is a Yin furnace, and yours is a Yang furnace."

"So..."

"Your Primordial Martial Furnace, just like how you dealt with Chen Xi before, can absorb her Yin furnace in one fell swoop," Blue Star chuckled mischievously.

"One step to the stomach?" Red Moon piped up, poking its head out.

"To your sister," Yun Xiao pressed it back into his embrace, leaving only Blue Star visible, "No need to harm her, I\'ll rely on myself."

He was somewhat confused about Chen Xi and Lian Xi now. Initially, the plan was to insert the incarnation of transcending calamity into her heart. Now, things had become complicated.

In just a few days, Yun Xiao had developed feelings for her!

Yun Xiao came with a heart of detachment, but the situation turned out more bizarre than he expected. Every time he saw Lian Xi, his brain considered them as two people, but his hands and lips disagreed.

"A real protagonist we have here!" Blue Star scoffed.

"Stop the nonsense, let\'s start the furnace. The Seed of Creation has been absorbed," Yun Xiao said.

"Can\'t start it yet," Blue Star chuckled.

"Why?"

"The Primordial Martial Dao, after all, is a secondary system. It requires some materials to establish a foundation. You need to find some metallic materials as the foundation for the furnace. It\'s best if they\'re of Yin grade or higher, and even better with Yang grade metallic materials," Blue Star explained.

"Yang grade metallic materials? Those are used for forging top-tier magic treasures like the Binding God Cord; they\'re not easy to find," Yun Xiao frowned.

The better the materials, the stronger the foundation, he understood. The problem was, he wasn\'t exactly wealthy now. His cultivation consumed a lot, barely maintaining a modest lifestyle.

"Ask Lil Xi."
