Chapter 548: Chapter 232: A Word Determines the Heart Demon_3

He handed it to Duan Feng.

“This is for you.”

Duan Feng faltered for a moment, then curiously opened the bag.

“Restoring Yang Water, Glass Sky Balm, Calming Incense...”

All of them are spirit medicines needed when breaking through to Foundation Establishment.

Duan Feng recited the names of these resources, surprise showing on his face.

“For me?”

“Keep looking!”

“Okay.” Duan Feng was overjoyed. He didn’t understand the meaning behind Luo Chen’s actions, but he was thrilled nonetheless.

After all, it was exciting to have someone prepare everything required for Foundation Establishment.

Anyone would be ecstatic.

“Huh? What elixir is this?”

“A First Order Spirit Pill. It can help cultivators refine their internal Spirit Power quickly and shorten the time from the Ninth Level Qi Refinement to Qi Refinement Finalization.”

Luo Chen turned his body, his back to the floating clouds outside the mountain, and his gaze fell on Duan Feng.

“With a batch of First Order Spirit Pills, you might need less than a year to reach Qi Refinement Finalization.”

“Sheesh!”

Duan Feng drew in a cold breath.

Clutching the bag, he felt somewhat heavy.

This gift was much heftier than he’d thought!

Has any member of the Luo Tian Creed received such favors from Luo Chen?

Or, am I the only one?

“Isn’t this a little...”

“Keep looking!”

Suppressing his inner excitement, Duan Feng’s gaze fell on a small rootstock.

“What’s this?”

Just as he took hold of the rootstock, Luo Chen’s voice sounded placidly.

“Eight-Hundred Year Heavenly Root. It can increase your chance of Foundation Establishment by 20%, and even if the breakthrough fails, it won’t cause major damage to your body. Its value is comparable to a common Foundation Establishment Pill.”

“Is this... Huh?”

Duan Feng unwrapped the rootstock that looked like a tongue.

As he was about to examine it closely, his gaze fell on the slip of paper within.

For now, it didn’t seem like something adverse had happened.

“Luo Chen, I...”

He was no longer addressing him as the Chairman as usual, but unconsciously used Luo Chen’s name.

This thoroughly exhibited just how chaotic Duan Feng’s mind was at this moment.

He looked at Luo Chen, his body shaking and his eyes lost.

Pain and regret, firmness and persistence. All these emotions merged to form a highly distorted expression.

Luo Chen took a deep breath, holding his shoulder tightly.

“I was hesitating whether to give you these resources.”

“I realize that it would be a severe blow to you.”

“However, after much thought, I decided to give it to you because in fairness and reason, this was left for you by Duan Qiankun. In terms of benefits, this is part of the spoils of war that belong to you, Wang Yuan, and me.”

“As for how you see it, I can’t give much advice. And about Duan Qiankun, I will only say that you did absolutely nothing wrong!”

“Do not doubt yourself. In the path of cultivation, you may make mistakes or missteps, maybe even backfire. But for the decisions you have made, never regret them, and never doubt your current self because of the past.”

“These resources are rightfully yours. You don’t need to feel guilty.”

“Did you hear me clearly?”

His trembling body gradually steadied.

Duan Feng held on to that cloth bag, feeling it no longer held the weight of a mountain as before.

However, his mind was still fluctuating.

After a while, he managed to respond with a bitter smile: “I need some time to digest this.”

“Alright, off you go! I’ve got Su Xiaolin and Bian Zhen handling things at the Equipment Hall.”

Duan Feng turned around, walking hazily down the mountain.

He paused for a moment, without turning his head, he said,

“Thank you.”

And with that, his figure disappeared in the mists.

Luo Chen sighed, thinking, why are you being so formal with me!

However, after dealing with this matter, he felt as though a weight had been lifted from his heart.

Given Duan Feng’s disposition, as long as he didn’t get stuck in a rut at the very beginning, he would adjust in the future.

Those resources truly held tremendous value and shouldn’t be wasted carelessly.

He turned around and headed towards the mountain peak.

“Now that the Luo Tian Creed is in recovery, I have Hui Niang managing the central affairs. There’s no need for me to be deeply concerned about every single matter.”

“At least, I do find myself having some free time.”

“Next, I’ll focus on advancing the Cleanse Origin Pill Formula to its minor achievement stage as soon as possible!”
