Chapter 52: Major Event II

Over the past ten thousand years.

Any power possessing an existence at the Void Piercing Realm or above has had the qualification to dispatch disciples to the Outer Realm Battlefield for training.

The Profound Heaven Sect was naturally no exception; its true disciples and legacy disciples spent almost all of their time training in the Outer Realm Battlefield.

Even core disciples would be arranged to take turns heading to the battlefield for experience.

Seeing this, Ye Qingxuan thought of his ancestor.

"The ancestor must have gone to the Outer Realm Battlefield, right?"

With his thoughts racing, Ye Qingxuan continued reading.

Originally, the Di Xuan Realm and the Azure Demon Realm were evenly matched, with neither side showing signs of defeat. Logically, it should have remained a stalemate until one side achieved a major breakthrough in strength to break the deadlock.

But something bizarre suddenly happened!

For unknown reasons, the Azure Demon Race had inexplicably withdrawn many of its powerhouses. Once discovered by the people of the Di Xuan Realm, they were driven back in a series of crushing defeats during the counterattack.

Now, the Azure Demon Race could only retreat to defend the gateway of the Azure Demon Realm, having lost all territories within the Outer Realm Battlefield.

Although the great experts of the Di Xuan Realm did not know what changes had occurred within the Azure Demon Race, after conducting a comprehensive investigation of the Outer Realm Battlefield and ruling out the possibility that the Azure Demon Realm had left behind any hidden trump cards, they prepared to strike while the iron was hot to pull the Outer Realm Battlefield into the Di Xuan Realm.

However, half of the origin of the Outer Realm Battlefield belonged to the demonic origin of the Azure Demon Realm. Unless the demonic qi in the battlefield was thoroughly purified and the connection between the battlefield and the Azure Demon Realm was severed, the experts of the Di Xuan Realm would have no way to forcibly pull the battlefield into their realm.

Furthermore, the Azure Demon experts would occasionally emerge to harass and cause chaos, which had become an immense nuisance to everyone.

Consequently, after a discussion among the Mahayana cultivators of the Di Xuan Realm, they decided to deploy a portion of high-level cultivators to guard the gateway of the Azure Demon Realm, pinning the Azure Demon experts inside their own realm.

As for the Outer Realm Battlefield, it was opened to all factions within the Di Xuan Realm, encouraging everyone to head there to slay the demonic creatures derived from the Azure Demon Realm's origin and to purify the demonic qi.

The carcasses of slain monsters and the pure essence obtained from purifying the demonic qi could be brought back to the Di Xuan Realm to receive feedback from its origin, thereby enhancing everyone's cultivation.

Not to mention the various rare treasures and exotic items already existing within the Outer Realm Battlefield!

Thus, as soon as the news broke, the Five Regions within the Di Xuan Realm were shaken. Most cultivators were rubbing their hands in anticipation, preparing to make a grand conquest in the Outer Realm Battlefield.

As for the Four Regions outside the Di Xuan Realm, because they were too far away and lacked high-level cultivators, the news did not reach them, so they were not affected by the events in the Outer Realm Battlefield.

This led to a sudden surge in demand for spiritual energy recovery, healing, and purification pills across all regions, including within the Profound Heaven Sect itself.

This was also the reason why Bai Wenyang had asked Ye Qingxuan about his current alchemy proficiency!

There was no helping it; with the scarcity of recovery, healing, and purification pills, Bai Wenyang, as the team leader, was under considerable pressure to meet performance targets.

After understanding all the information, Ye Qingxuan gained a clear grasp of the current situation in the Di Xuan Realm.

However, his current identity to the outside world was merely a minor blessed cultivator confined to a small area, so naturally, he would not head to the Outer Realm Battlefield.

But, while everyone else went to the battlefield to feast on the meat, he could handle the logistics in the rear and earn a little "hardship fee" to sip on the soup. That wouldn't be unreasonable, would it?

Thinking of this, a hint of a smile couldn't help but appear in Ye Qingxuan's eyes.

The Outer Realm Battlefield was vast, and the problems within it certainly wouldn't be solved in a short period.

During this time, what he needed to do was improve his alchemy skills, and perhaps even raise his levels in smithing, formations, and talismans all at once.

Then, using pills, weapons, talismans, and formations, he could provide logistical support for the Profound Heaven Sect's main camp, while making a small profit on the price difference and gathering the resources needed for the growth of his blessed land.

As for the Outer Realm Battlefield? He would wait until he had condensed an avatar!

While Ye Qingxuan was lost in thought, his disciple token vibrated again. This time, it was a message from Ye Qingxiao

"Qingxuan, you're finally out of seclusion! You don't know that something huge has happened in the Di Xuan Realm, do you? Want me to tell you?"

Ye Qingxuan watched quietly and did not reply!

Only a moment later, another message from Ye Qingxiao arrived

"Qingxuan? Qingxuan? Are you there? It's a really big deal, don't you want to know?"

This time, Ye Qingxuan still did not reply.

Finally, Ye Qingxuan could not take it anymore and sent a transmission

"Qingxuan, oh my god! You're driving me crazy! Just wait, I'm coming over to tell you!"

Seeing this message, Ye Qingxuan finally smiled and chuckled softly

"If you had just done that from the start, wouldn't it have been fine? Why play the mystery card?"

Afterward, Ye Qingxuan took out his alchemy furnace, enlarged it, and ignited his Dao Fire.

He placed the demon beast meat he had hunted when he previously returned home onto the furnace to begin roasting it. His family had only eaten a very small portion, so the carcass was still largely intact.

Then, Ye Qingxuan took out some spiritual herbs and refined them slightly into a seasoning, which he sprinkled evenly over the roasting meat.

Smelling the nose-tingling aroma of the meat, Ye Qingxuan's appetite surged. He smacked his lips and said

"A pity! There's no wine! It seems I should consider trying to brew some wine in the blessed land in the future."

A long time later, just as the demon beast meat had reached the perfect level of roasting, a figure rushed over from the distance

"Qingxuan, I'm telling you—huh? What is that amazing smell?"

The rushing Ye Qingxiao had originally intended to tell Ye Qingxuan about the major event in the Di Xuan Realm, but he was distracted by the scent of the roasted meat from afar.

Following the aroma, Ye Qingxiao soon arrived outside the stone pavilion and saw Ye Qingxuan roasting meat.

Noticing Ye Qingxiao's throat bobbing, Ye Qingxuan smiled

"Sit down, don't just stand there like an idiot!"

Once he snapped out of it, Ye Qingxiao hurriedly sat down beside Ye Qingxuan and asked

"Qingxuan, what kind of meat is this? It smells so good!"

Hearing the question, Ye Qingxuan controlled the Dao Fire with one hand while responding with the other

"What else could it be? It's just ordinary demon beast meat!"

"Demon beast meat? Can demon beast meat really smell this good?"

Ye Qingxiao looked incredulous, as if he had never eaten demon beast meat before.

Seeing his disbelief, Ye Qingxuan merely glanced at him and did not bother to argue.

Don't be ridiculous; he was an alchemist, after all. What was wrong with roasting demon beast meat to make it smell a bit better?

Once the meat was finished, Ye Qingxuan withdrew the Dao Fire. The entire carcass looked golden and shimmering, with a mouth-watering aroma!

Watching from the side, Ye Qingxiao's mouth watered, and even Ye Qingxuan himself couldn't help but swallow secretly.

Using his magic power to divide a portion of the meat, he sent it to the caves of the brothers Ye Zhaohang and Ye Zhaoyu. Then, looking at Ye Qingxiao, Ye Qingxuan said

"What are you waiting for? Eat!"

He then took the lead, tearing off a piece of meat to feast on, and Ye Qingxiao followed suit.

Soon, the remaining meat was devoured by the two of them!

After finishing the meat, Ye Qingxiao slumped in the stone chair and let out a satisfied burp. He finally remembered his business and leaned toward Ye Qingxuan, saying mysteriously

"Qingxuan, a major event has occurred in the Di Xuan Realm. Do you want to know?"

Upon hearing this, Ye Qingxuan glanced at Ye Qingxiao and said indifferently

"A major event? What major event? It couldn't be that thing about the Outer Realm Battlefield, could it?"

Hearing Ye Qingxuan's words, Ye Qingxiao's mouth hung open slightly, the words he wanted to say dying in his throat, leaving him feeling awkward.

Scratching his head impatiently, Ye Qingxiao hurriedly asked

"Didn't you just come out of seclusion? How do you know?"

"Hmm? Don't tell me you didn't know that a blessed cultivator can know the affairs of the world just by calculating with their fingers?"

Ye Qingxuan looked at Ye Qingxiao with a feigned expression of surprise, as if to say, *You couldn't possibly not know, right?*

Seeing Ye Qingxuan's expression, Ye Qingxiao rubbed the back of his head awkwardly

"Is that so? I haven't heard of that! I rushed all the way here thinking I'd tell you!"

Then, Ye Qingxiao glanced at Ye Qingxuan again. Seeing that Ye Qingxuan remained calm, he muttered to himself

"Is this guy lying to me? I've never heard of blessed cultivators having such an ability."

Seeing Ye Qingxiao lost in thought, Ye Qingxuan couldn't help but interrupt

"Qingxiao, are you planning to go to the Outer Realm Battlefield?"
