Deities: Starting From Goblins

Chapter 733: Chapter 442: Refining Medicine with Buddha_1n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Everyone can’t wait so desperately, how can we find a safe place? If people from the Monster Beast Clan come, it seems nowhere is safe to hide.”

Someone let out a bitter laugh, as unless they were guarded by an absolutely top-notch expert, which was obviously not possible, those above their strength were the ninth-tier Sanctuary Powerhouses. Such Strong Ones only existed in the Immortal Realm and the Demon Beast Secret Realm, but how could these individuals possibly protect them?

Everyone looked worried and downcast. With seven days needed for Refinement, ensuring safety seemed too difficult; it appeared useless to hide anywhere. Even though the Holy Life Elixirs were already in hand, they felt like hot potatoes.

“I have a strategy, why don’t we refine in batches? The first time, let seven or eight people refine while the rest stand guard against any sneaky attackers. After these seven or eight have completed their Refinement, the others can follow.”

At this moment, Wexler Daoist suggested, ensuring that at all times, they would have individuals with combat power on their side. Unless all the powerhouses of the Monster Beast Clan came, they would be absolutely safe.

This proposal was accepted by everyone, but promptly followed by a difficult question, “Who is willing to wait until the end? Doesn’t everyone want to be the first to refine? It’s impossible to reach a consensus among so many people.”

“And what’s most frightening is, what if the people who increased their lifespan earlier don’t want to protect those following and even harbor a killing intent? Our group of over twenty have always been united in face but divided at heart, not only lacking harmony but even holding each other in contempt.”

Everyone fell silent, indeed, this possibility was not unfounded; it was difficult to predict human nature. Those who had already increased their lifespan definitely wouldn’t want others to enjoy the same benefit, even wishing there were fewer Sanctuary Powerhouses so that they themselves could benefit more.

The debate was endless, and Holy Daoist could not contain his anger, “After all is said and done, we still don’t trust each other. We are all Human Cultivators; do we really have to continue this mutual suspicion? The Monster Beast Clan covets the Ancient World, and we should be united in our enmity against them.”

“Easy for you to say. You and Logan have a good relationship, so no matter when you refine, Logan will surely protect you, but it’s different for us.”

Someone immediately sneered dismissively, thinking that Holy Daoist was too preachy. What concern was the safety of the Human race to them? They only wanted to continue their cultivation towards the Saint Emperor and didn’t care about these worldly matters.

Among the twenty-some people present, only one-third had old friends and family connections, such as those like Holy Daoist with Saint Sky Sect in the Central Region. The remaining two-thirds had Sects and Family Clans long since fallen, with no one left in the world, completely lacking a fervent heart.

Holy Daoist shook his head and sighed, his eyes filled with desolation, “I truly worry for the Human race; this is a broken state of affairs. How can we resist when the Monster Beast Clan arrives?”

“I have a method that can offer you a safe place to refine. Not to mention seven days—you could stay for ten days or even half a month.”

At this point, Logan said with a faint smile, “Of course, with over twenty people harboring different intentions in their hearts, I’ll only select some of you. The rest will have to find their own way.”

“What method?” With Holy Daoist and the others’ eyes lighting up, they eagerly asked, while Logan took out a Spirit Stone and formed an array with a few cast Runes.

“I think you have forgotten something; actually, I am an Array Master. I can forge an array that allows you to refine within it. As my strength has advanced to the Quasi-Saint level, the defensive array I can create is capable of withstanding attacks from Strong Ones below the ninth-tier Sanctuary.”

Logan was brimming with confidence. Indeed, beyond the array, there was an even safer method—the Qian Kun Bead’s small world. Not only was it safe, but the flow of time was different; seven days inside would only be a few hours in the outside world.

However, regarding the Qian Kun Bead, Logan didn’t want too many people to know. These people might not have the ability to take it by force, but that didn’t mean they wouldn’t talk about it. Logan had come into contact with too many Strong Ones, especially with the Half-step Saint Emperors emerging recently, what couldn’t be possible?

No one doubted Logan; after all, he had managed to refine the Holy Life Elixirs, so what wasn’t possible? As a result, they all were keen to refine within the array.

“Only those whose Sects and Family Clans still exist in the world, who have no fewer than a hundred friends and family alive, can enter the array. As for the lonely and unaided, they are definitely not permitted.”

With these words from Logan, some were jubilant while others were disheartened. Holy Daoist only stunned for a moment before he understood; Logan’s selection meant that, faced with the Monster Beast Clan, these people would surely fight for the Human race. After all, they still had friends and family in the world. This move was truly clever.

Even if these people dared not oppose the Monster Beast Clan, they couldn’t possibly join them, for once the Monster Beast Clan conquered the Ancient World, those of the Sanctuary could roam as they pleased, but their friends and family didn’t have the abilities of the Sanctuary.

Many didn’t understand and railed against this, “Isn’t that too unfair? Just because we are alone, we can’t have your protection? We could go and establish a Sect within minutes, recruit thousands in a day, then come back—would that be allowed?”

“Actually, you all know why I do this; to put it plainly, everything is for the Human race. Just like you argued against Holy Daoist earlier, I’m afraid that before long, you’ll side with the Monster Beast Clan, so I don’t want to help you. Is my decision wrong?”

“You all received the Holy Life Elixir for free! You should be grateful, but now because of this trivial matter, you’re all shouting at me? If you dare, return the Holy Life Elixir.”
