Chapter 68
Refining the seventh-grade elixir, the Heavenly Soul Blood Fusion Pill, was not difficult for Wei Jian, an eighth-grade alchemist.
It was originally agreed that the pills would be delivered in two days, but Wei Jian finished refining them in just one day and sent someone to deliver them to Jiang Xing.
After the pills were delivered, Jiang Xing immediately had Cai Lin take them.
"Is this the Heavenly Soul Blood Fusion Pill?"
Cai Lin asked.
Although the recipe for the Heavenly Soul Blood Fusion Pill belonged to their snake-people clan, since none of the snake-people were capable of refining pills, Cai Lin had never seen the Heavenly Soul Blood Fusion Pill before.
Jiang Xing nodded and said with a smile, "With this pill, our child will have a head start from birth. Take it quickly, and I will protect you."
"good!"
Knowing Jiang Xing's personality, Cai Lin didn't say anything to thank him and simply swallowed the pill.
The pill melted instantly upon entering her mouth, and Cai Lin felt a warm current surge through her entire body, which then transformed into a gentle energy that enveloped the fetus in her womb, plunging her into a mystical state.
Throughout Cai Lin's process of refining the elixir, Jiang Xing stood by her side, watching her closely with eyes full of anticipation and nervousness, fearing that any unexpected events might occur.
As time went by, Cai Lin underwent some changes, and her complexion became rosier.
Clearly, this is the Heavenly Soul Blood Fusion Pill starting to take effect.
A moment later, Cai Lin opened her beautiful eyes, which became even more bright as she looked at Jiang Xing with delight.
Seeing this, Jiang Xing breathed a sigh of relief and a happy smile appeared on his face.
Since Cai Lin became pregnant, Jiang Xing has been extremely attentive to her, almost never leaving her side. He constantly monitors Cai Lin's physical condition, fearing that she might suffer any harm.
Whenever Cai Lin goes out, Jiang Xing personally accompanies her to ensure her safety.
This excessive protection left Cai Lin somewhat bewildered.
One day, Cai Lin wanted to go out for a walk, and Jiang Xing nervously supported her. Cai Lin finally couldn't help but say, "Husband, you don't need to be so nervous. I'm not that fragile."
Hearing this, Jiang Xing still gently held her hand: "I know you are very strong, but you are the most important person in my life, and I don't want you to get hurt in any way. Especially during this special time, I need to be extra careful."
Hearing Jiang Xing's words, Cai Lin's heart was filled with sweetness.
Although she still felt that Jiang Xing was too nervous, she felt very happy to be cared for and couldn't help but lean against Jiang Xing's chest.
During this time, Jiang Xing also told his father, Jiang Heng, about the Gate of Life and Death.
Jiang Xing recounted in detail to Jiang Heng what he had seen and heard at the Gate of Life and Death.
He described the density of energy within the Gate of Life and Death, and how cultivating inside could rapidly increase one's strength. He also expressed his hope that Jiang Heng would be able to enter and cultivate there.
After listening to Jiang Xing's story, Jiang Heng was amazed that there was such a magical place in the Northwest Continent.
If he can enter the Gate of Life and Death, his strength will surely be greatly enhanced.
Although Jiang Heng really wanted to go to the Northwest Continent and enter the Gate of Life and Death right now, he held back and said that he should wait a little longer.
Jiang Xing expressed his doubts about this.
Jiang Cheng said, "If what you say is true, then I should wait until I'm in the late stage of the Half-Saint realm before going in. That way, my chances of breaking through to the Dou Sheng realm will be much higher."
Jiang Xing thought about it and realized it made sense. His grandfather, a six-star Dou Sheng in his early stage, had advanced two minor realms after emerging from the Gate of Life and Death, while he himself had broken through several realms.
It seems that Jiang Xing gained more, but that's not actually the case. The difficulty of breaking through to the sixth-star Dou Sheng level is vastly different from that of breaking through to Dou Zong or Dou Zun.
Therefore, compared to my grandfather, it is obvious that my grandfather gained more from it.
This means that the stronger you are when you enter the Gate of Life and Death, the greater the improvement you will receive.
Breaking through from a Half-Saint to a Dou Sheng is indeed an extremely difficult hurdle. If Father could enter the Gate of Life and Death in the late Half-Saint stage and cultivate using the rich energy within, his chances of breaking through to Dou Sheng would undoubtedly increase significantly.
Thinking about this, Jiang Xing felt a little envious of his father and grandfather.
Jiang Xing and Jiang Cheng also tried to enter the Gate of Life and Death again. They poured their battle qi into the gate, hoping to be pulled in by that mysterious suction force again. But their idea was good, but the reality was cruel. No matter how much battle qi Jiang Xing and Jiang Cheng poured into the gate of life and death, it did not react at all.
Jiang Xing and Jiang Cheng then accepted the reality: the Gate of Life and Death could only be entered once, and only cultivators with the wind attribute could enter.
As for forcibly entering?
That's overthinking it; the mystery and fortification of the Gate of Life and Death far exceed imagination.
Jiang Cheng, with the strength of a late-stage six-star Dou Sheng, attempted to force his way into the Gate of Life and Death by bombarding it with powerful force. However, no matter how strong his attacks were, they could not cause any damage to the Gate of Life and Death.
So even if Jiang Xing was envious, there was nothing he could do.
Without the strange fire to refine, Jiang Xing could only rely on absorbing the flame lizard's bead and the Jiang family's cultivation resources to cultivate.
Jiang Xing took care of Cai Lin while cultivating.
A year has passed, and Jiang Xing's strength has only increased by three minor realms.
The higher the realm, the slower the progress. Therefore, Jiang Xing's parents and grandfather praised him for his amazing talent for making such progress in just one year.
Advancing three minor realms in a year at the Dou Zun level is something that ordinary people simply cannot imagine.
However, having personally experienced the explosive increase in strength after refining the strange fire, Jiang Xing still felt that this kind of cultivation was a bit slow.
At this time, Cai Lin was already more than a year pregnant, and her belly was noticeably protruding.
Unlike the ten months of human pregnancy, Medusa's fetus needed to develop in the mother's womb for about three years.
During this year, Jiang Xing did not allow Cai Lin to stay at the Jiang family home.
Jiang Xing knew that although pregnant women needed rest, appropriate activity was beneficial to both their own health and the health of the fetus.
Therefore, he would accompany Cailin for a walk every now and then so that she could breathe fresh air.
As the queen of the snake-people, Cai Lin was somewhat uneasy about the affairs of her tribe. She worried that after she left, no one would handle the affairs of the tribe, and she also feared that something might happen to her people because of her departure.
Knowing that Cai Lin was worried about this matter, Jiang Xing told her that he had already sent people to guard the Snake People's territory and that she didn't need to worry.
To put Cai Lin's mind at ease, Jiang Xing even took her back to the Snake-People tribe once.
Upon returning to the Snake-People tribe, seeing that there were no unexpected events and that the tribe's strength was rapidly increasing, Cai Lin felt gratified and at ease.
Now that they had come to the Snake-People tribe, Jiang Xing naturally wouldn't just leave after seeing everything. He stayed with Cai Lin in the tribe for a while longer.
