A few days later, Chen Fei emerged from the secluded chamber; his cultivation realm was now half a step away from the peak of Qi Refining Seventh Layer. If he could find a suitable opportunity, he might immediately break through.
And within just these few days, the entire Enlightened Deity Cave seemed to have undergone a tremendous change. Previously, owning the peak of Qi Refining Sixth Layer or the First-Level Demon Beast Late Stage would be considered a master within the cave.
Previously, there were absolutely no more than twenty masters at the Qi Refining Seventh Layer or Second Level Early Stage Beast in the Enlightened Deity Cave! And those at the Qi Refining Eighth Layer and above the Second Level Middle Stage Beast, there were fewer than five! But now?
But now, having decided to submit to Chen Fei and take the pill, the comprehensive strength of Enlightened Deity Cave directly doubled in these few days!
Doubling! What concept is that?
To be specific, nowadays within Enlightened Deity Cave, there's at least forty, almost fifty experts above the Qi Refining Seventh Layer realm!
And those above the Qi Refining Eighth Layer and Second Level Middle Stage Beast, their number has surged to nearly ten!
This terrifying explosive growth in overall strength has allowed the masters and experts within Enlightened Deity Cave to once again truly experience the immense and formidable power of a high-level alchemist!
It's worth knowing that even the Red Lion Cave, with two Second Level Late Stage Beast masters overseeing, also has a similar number of experts at Qi Refining Seventh and Eighth Layer.
This implies that within just a few days, with the addition of over ten boxes of alchemy materials they would usually never use, Chen Fei has elevated the underlying power of Enlightened Deity Cave to catch up with Red Lion Cave!
If given more time and essential alchemy materials, wouldn't it be possible for the underlying power of Enlightened Deity Cave to catch up to Cloud Dragon Mountain in a very short time?
Upon thinking this, the current members of Enlightened Deity Cave are filled with motivation and enthusiasm!
With the Lord Cave Master, a formidable alchemist on their side, what else do they need to worry about? They truly have nothing to worry about now! Haha, hahahaha...
"Lord Cave Master, have you exited your retreat?" As soon as Chen Fei emerged from the secluded chamber, a respectful voice was heard.
Chen Fei glanced sideways and saw Mon Yi, the former Deputy Cave Master of Golden Toad Cave, wearing a purple loose robe, respectfully standing outside the chamber door. Moreover, he appeared to have been waiting there for quite some time.
"Hmm? What is that in your hand?" Chen Fei slightly nodded upon hearing, then suddenly noticed the thing in the other's hand that seemed like an invitation, with dazzling red characters and images, exuding a strong demon Qi, he couldn't help but ask.
"Reporting to Lord Cave Master, this was sent by Red Lion Cave again. It's the invitation to the one hundred and fiftieth birthday banquet of Red Lion Daoist, the Cave Master of Red Lion Cave; please take a look, Lord Cave Master." Mon Yi immediately said. As he spoke, he also handed over the invitation with both hands.
"An invitation to Red Lion Daoist's birthday banquet?"
Upon hearing, Chen Fei was slightly stunned. He then directly reached out his hand to take the invitation, reaching the other hand to open the seal outside the invitation.
But at this moment, the situation changed suddenly.
Swoosh!
At that instant, as Chen Fei was about to unveil the seal of the invitation, a thumb-sized red light, like a red lightning, burst out from the seal of the invitation, swiftly shooting toward Chen Fei's body!
This turn of events was unexpected for both Chen Fei and Mon Yi.
The latter's face instantly changed dramatically, appearing somewhat panic-stricken!
Because he could sense that this red light was anything but simple; it possessed a terrifying power and aura that made him feel fearful and even caused his scalp to tingle!
So if this attack were directed at him, caught off guard, he might even face a life-threatening crisis.
"Hmph!" However, in the next moment, a cold snort from Chen Fei rang firmly in his ear.
Then, in the excessively dilated pupils of Mon Yi, Chen Fei's right hand swiftly flashed like lightning, reaching out sharply and gripping the red light tightly as if dragging out a shadow!
Then bang!
The imposing red light was directly crushed by Chen Fei's hand, turning into fragments.
Although the description of this process is tedious, in reality, it all transpired in just a few brief breaths.
After Chen Fei crushed the red light with a slap, Mon Yi snapped back from his shock, face pale, asked in panic: "Lord Cave Master, are you alright?"
"I'm fine." Chen Fei shook his head calmly, his deep, glazed eyes slightly flashing with chilly intent, murmuring to himself: "It seems that person wanted to gauge my strength. If an ordinary cultivator at the Peak of Qi Refining Eighth Layer were careless, they could easily get severely injured by such a move..."
"That Red Lion Daoist is truly despicable, using such petty tricks." Mon Yi said angrily. Such vile and shameless tactics could really hurt someone if caught off guard.
Swoosh!
Chen Fei didn't speak but directly threw the invitation into the corner with a calm expression: "Prepare, in three days, accompany me to Red Lion Cave."
"Yes, Lord Cave Master!" Mon Yi replied without hesitation upon hearing!
...
In the North Side Area of Eagle Gorge, on a towering mountain at least several thousand meters high, with sheer cliffs, jagged rocks, and silver dragon waterfalls, deep within the mountains, countless Lingzhi blossoms filled the air with fragrance, and the region was fraught with dangers from wild nature and fierce demon beasts.
Atop the mountain, covered in snow, the majestic peak loomed, looking magnificent and overwhelming from afar. There stood palatial buildings in close proximity, with spiritual light revolving in the sky above.
Throughout the imposing architectural cluster, various spiritual lights could be seen rising to the sky, ridden by varied and distinct magic artifacts!
On the ground among the buildings, figures moved in and out, many human cultivators entering and exiting the summit gate.
This was the station of Cloud Dragon Mountain, a prestigious and renowned power in the Eagle Gorge Area! A mighty force named after the mountain.
"Rumor has it that a guy emerged from Golden Toad Cave, exterminated the King of Gilded Toads, and is now intending to control that territory himself?" In a palace on Cloud Dragon Mountain, a white-haired elder with swollen lips tapped the table before him, making rhythmic sounds, while glancing around the hall with cold eyes, saying.
