After the feast was over, Ye Feng first brought the items back to his residence, then personally led people to burn and dispose of the Sect tokens and Sect clothes, so as not to bring any future troubles to his Black Wind Stronghold.
During this incident, many people in the fort died. For this, Ye Feng solemnly held a memorial ceremony and gave some monetary compensation to the families of the victims before returning to his residence to carefully examine the items he had obtained.
Among them, the most important was, of course, that jade talisman. On the front of the jade talisman was written 'Xuantian', and on the back was written 'Disciple Recruitment'. The material of this jade talisman was very good, even harder than ordinary steel, which allowed it to survive the big explosion.
Secondly, there was that Immortal Sword.
The Immortal Sword had no visible special marks of any color, indentation, or pattern, seeming to be just the most ordinary sword in the Cultivation World. Only then did Ye Feng dare to keep this sword.
The Immortal Sword could cut iron like mud, many times better than ordinary mortal weapons. If he fought with it, it could directly increase his combat power by several tenths.
With the Immortal Sword set aside, Ye Feng continued to try and identify the Medicinal Pills one by one.
There were a total of three types of Medicinal Pills. One type was straw-yellow, and when sniffed, it had the fragrance of rice. Ye Feng guessed that this should be Bigu Pill, the least valuable and most numerous. Out of 12 Medicinal Pills, 8 were this type.
The second type was brownish-green, with a strong herbal scent.
"This should be a healing Medicinal Pill."
The third type had a faint pink color and smelled sweet. After only a few sniffs, Ye Feng felt like he was about to Break Through a Bottleneck and Cultivate to the next Rank.
"This should be a Cultivation Medicinal Pill for improving Cultivation. No matter what, it's always good if my Cultivation can improve. The journey to Xuantian Sect is long, and I really don't know what kind of dangers I'll encounter!"
"Then I'll just digest these Cultivation Medicinal Pills and improve before going to Xuantian Sect."
Ye Feng secretly made a decision and tried to scrape off a small part of the Medicinal Pill with his fingernail and put it in his mouth to test.
Not long after, he indeed felt a surge of powerful energy flowing within his body.
He quickly began to circulate his Martial Dao Cultivation Technique to improve his Cultivation.
Martial arts Cultivation is divided into Acquired, Innate, and Grandmaster Realms. Acquired Martial Artists can be divided into Body Tempering, Ming Jin, and An Jin. Innate and Grandmaster are both divided into Early Stage, Middle Stage, and Late Stage.
Cultivating to the Grandmaster Realm allows True Qi to be released externally, where picking flowers and flying leaves can kill people.
Currently, the other leaders in Black Wind Stronghold are all An Jin Martial Artists, a sub-division of Acquired Martial Artists, while Ye Feng is an Innate Early Stage Martial Artist. Only because of this can Ye Feng firmly suppress them and become the Big Boss of Black Wind Stronghold.
Ye Feng Cultivated for one night, consuming all 2 of the only Cultivation Medicinal Pills. His Martial Dao Cultivation also improved to the Innate Middle Stage, almost approaching the Innate Late Stage.
"Upgrading by taking drugs is indeed powerful!"
"One night of drug-fueled Cultivation is better than several years of my hard Cultivation!"
In the early morning, Ye Feng stood up, feeling his brand new Cultivation, full of emotion.
He then looked at the remaining three-legged cup, which looked somewhat like a Pill Furnace. The entire furnace was bronze-colored, cylindrical in shape, and engraved with the eight trigrams symbols of Qian, Kan, Gen, Zhen, Xun, Li, Kun, and Dui. However, it was a bit too small, only palm-sized.
"This thing was obtained after killing that evil Cultivator. Could it be the Bagua Furnace? Things in the Cultivation World can be big or small. Maybe this thing has a size-as-you-wish technique. If it's really the Bagua Furnace, then I've made a fortune!"
----
Just as Ye Feng was happily taking pills and Cultivating, the Third Boss, Liu Xiaoqing, was also in his residence, sharing the Immortal's flesh and blood with several of his subordinates.
Just as he had expected, this Immortal's flesh and blood contained Spiritual Qi essence. Enduring the nausea, after eating it and going through a period of Cultivation, his Cultivation directly surged to the Innate Early Stage Realm, and the Cultivation of his several subordinates also improved, with one of them even reaching the An Jin Rank.
Having An Jin Cultivation, one could already be a boss!
"Hahaha! My choice was indeed correct! Second Brother, Fourth Brother, Fifth Brother, you all want to compete with me? After Big Boss leaves, I will be the new Big Boss!"
Liu Xiaoqing laughed maniacally.
"Third Boss is brilliant!"
"What Third Boss? Call me Big Boss, call me Big Boss!"
Several subordinates also quickly flattered him.
----
According to the agreement, before Ye Feng left, a new Big Boss had to be chosen to prevent the remaining people from fighting to the death without a referee, which would be very unfavorable for Black Wind Stronghold.
One day later, the Big Bosses of Black Wind Stronghold, as well as some core members, all came to the Hall of Justice.
Everyone else had taken their seats, and Ye Feng also sat down in the main seat.
However, the Third Boss's seat remained empty for a long time.
"Where is Third Brother? Xiaolin, go call him, this is truly outrageous!"
Ye Feng was very displeased that the other party was even later than him, and quickly urged a subordinate to go call him.
Just then, Liu Xiaoqing swaggered in from the doorway.
"No need, I'm here. Sorry for keeping everyone waiting!"
"Big Boss Ye, you're going to seek Immortals and learn skills. This Black Wind Stronghold, just leave it to me to manage!"
Hearing his overbearing words, the other bosses were instantly enraged.
"Liu San, are you treating me like air?"
Second Boss Guo Dongfeng was the first to lose his temper.
"Guo Er, I'm not treating you like air, but based on strength, I'm more suitable to be this new Big Boss!"
After speaking, Liu Xiaoqing displayed his Innate Early Stage Cultivation.
"What! How is that possible? How could you Cultivate to the Innate Realm so quickly!"
Seeing this, Guo Dongfeng found it incredibly hard to believe.
He had been immersed in the An Jin Peak for many years without being able to Break Through, and not long ago, this Liu Xiaoqing was only in the An Jin Late Stage!
"Nothing is impossible. If you don't believe me, you can come and spar with me. Big Boss, isn't that right?"
Liu Xiaoqing looked at Guo Dongfeng's shocked expression with satisfaction, then turned to look at Ye Feng.
"Hmm, strength is respected. Liu San, after I leave, you will be the new Big Boss. I hope that in the future, you can lead our Black Wind Stronghold to continue to grow stronger and create new glories."
"If I'm not mistaken, you and your subordinates must have eaten that Immortal's flesh and blood, right?"
Ye Feng speculated.
"Exactly!"
Liu Xiaoqing did not hide it and admitted it directly.
