Chapter 297: Great Attention, Doing Three Things at Once
The deep blue field of the illusory sea covered the pressure released by the two energies, allowing the numerous disciples and elders of the Pill Tower to be freed from its influence.
The disciples of the Pill Tower looked toward Elder Xiao Ze's tower in awe.
Although those two energies were unknown, the fact that they were in Elder Xiao Ze's tower meant he was familiar with them.
Based on the energy they emitted, they should be at the Dou Zun level. Even though the Dou Zun level wasn't particularly rare in the Pill Tower, witnessing two Dou Zuns breaking through at the same time was still astonishing.
The elders of the Pill Tower thought beyond this. Being more powerful, they could sense more from those two energies.
The green energy had a powerful mental interference ability. The simple fluctuation of that demonic eye was enough to affect these alchemists with deep soul cultivation, demonstrating the strength of its owner.
The other energy, a colorful magical beast blood pressure, although not as unusual, seemed to have a nobility inherited from ancient beasts, suggesting an extraordinary lineage.
The elders of the Pill Tower felt a heavy weight. Xiao Ze's friends were not simple.
Elder Liu Tian stroked his beard, looking at Xiao Ze's tower with a smile and a sigh.
"Xiao Ze's friends are nothing simple. The owner of that green energy should be the little servant girl always by his side."
"The mental interference emitted by her demonic eye is identical to what I've felt from her before, only now it's much stronger."
"As for the other energy..." Elder Liu Tian frowned, unable to recall anyone with that presence near Xiao Ze.
He considered himself close to Xiao Ze and thought he would know if he had such friends.
Unable to resolve the issue, Elder Liu Tian could only shake his head and stop worrying. At his age, it wasn't worth seeking trouble.
Compared to the disciples and elders of the Pill Tower, the commotion caused by Qinglin and Medusa's breakthroughs attracted the attention of another group.
These people, who were well-connected with the elders of the Pill Tower or seeking to obtain pills, were temporarily staying in the Tower.
The disciples and elders only marveled that Xiao Ze had two friends at the Dou Zun level, but these individuals were more interested in the breakthroughs themselves and Xiao Ze's role in them.
Some, well-informed, knew that the Zun Condensing Pill, which had caused a great stir in the Tower, was Xiao Ze's work.
Previously, when the Hall of Souls was dominant, some strong allies of the Pill Tower obtained one of these pills as a reward for their help in battles against the Hall of Souls.
That single pill had caused a great uproar.
For the allies of the Pill Tower, the number of Dou Zuns was scarce, with most at the peak of Dou Zong, desperately seeking a way to advance.
A pill that increased the chances of breaking through to the Dou Zun level was the most desired by those without hope of advancing.
The lucky one who received the pill had retreated to cultivate, with no news of their success yet. But now, the waves of two breakthroughs in Xiao Ze's tower couldn't go unnoticed by those desperate to advance.
Many were convinced it was the effect of the Zun Condensing Pill.
This led many to be more diligent in their work for the Pill Tower. The Tower had clearly stated that there was a limited number of these pills and that they didn't have the recipe.
This incentivized many to work even harder for the Tower.
Some, however, began to investigate who had created the pill.
If the Tower had a limited amount, they would try to get more directly from Xiao Ze.
Working hard for the Tower didn't guarantee an opportunity. Besides, the conflict with the Hall of Souls was dangerous. It was better to try to get a pill from Xiao Ze directly.
Xiao Ze was unaware that the Tower had used the pill as a reward, but even if he knew, he wouldn't mind. On the contrary, it made him more popular.
Xiao Ze was doing three things at once, communicating with Xun Er, Medusa, and Qinglin through the Origin Tree.
This novel method allowed Xun Er to share her daily life and chat with Xiao Ze as if they had never been separated, setting schedules to avoid conflicts in their training.
But Medusa and Qinglin, having completed their breakthroughs, were in the same room, using the golden tree to communicate. Xiao Ze rubbed his temples.
Fortunately, his spiritual strength was sufficient to handle three conversations at once without errors.
Finally, he saw Qinglin and Medusa, clearly freshly bathed, which made him raise an eyebrow.
Were they chatting with him while bathing?
Seeing Xiao Ze's inquisitive look, Qinglin's face, already flushed from the bath, turned even redder. Medusa, though maintaining a neutral expression, avoided his gaze.
"Although we already said it through the golden tree, I want to congratulate you both on your breakthroughs to Dou Zun," said Xiao Ze with a smile.
"Now I have the strength a guardian should have," said Medusa with a slight smile.
"Xiao Ze, now Qinglin can fight by your side!" Qinglin said confidently.
Seeing their enthusiasm, Xiao Ze nodded. "From now on, we will be battle companions."
His words made Medusa and Qinglin smile sincerely, feeling that their efforts had been worth it.
After chatting a bit more, Xiao Ze prepared to refine the Tian Ling Pill, essential for his next power breakthrough.
