Chapter 388

Chen uses the Golden Page to cut the Violet Phoenix Sparrow and obtain its Neidan.
The golden page swished through the air. It began to cut through the Violet Phoenix Sparrow's abdomen. This time, Long Chen didn't dare allow the golden page to penetrate deeply into the flesh. He actually sent himself through the opening in its abdomen and took out a foot-long item that sparkled like it was jade.
That was its Neidan. Although it was slightly dim, the great pressure emitted by it caused space to twist around it. It was a powerful flame energy.
It truly was worthy of being ranked third on the beast flame rankings. Even despite having used up all its energy, the Neidan still contained its core energy which was still so powerful.
This was something that countless Pill Masters would go crazy for.
This was also why Huo Wufang would still go all-out to fight for this Neidan despite already possessing such a powerful beast flame. On the beast flame rankings, the closer a flame got to the front, the more obvious the difference between each flame was. Each flame in the top ranks was separated by a great power difference. It could be said that this Neidan was the thing that Long Chen needed the most at this time. 
Once he refined this Neidan and absorbed the Phoenix Sparrow violet flame, he would be able to refine the Alioth Pill and condense the Alioth Star.
== Tendon ==
Furthermore, Long Chen had now reached the third Heavenstage of Tendon Transformation. However, the price was that he had already consumed all the Three Connecting Flower Tendon Pills he had. If he wanted to quickly advance, he would need to constantly consume more medicinal pills.
Long Chen had found that after cultivating the Nine Star Hegemon Body Art, his cultivation path had completely deviated from others. Medicinal pills had become the foundation of his cultivation. He had found that his body was able to absorb one hundred percent of the energy within medicinal pills. There was not the slightest waste nor rejection.
Right now, Long Chen sensed a great deal of danger. Han Tianyu, Yin Luo, Huo Wufang, and the other peak experts here had already reached the peak of Tendon Transformation.
They could break through to Bone Forging at any moment. Long Chen knew they had long since made their preparations for that. As soon as they broke through to the Bone Forging realm, they would immediately consume countless resources to temper their bones.
Currently, Long Chen still had the power to challenge them. But once they advanced to Bone Forging, would he still be able to do so?
However, now that he had obtained the Violet Phoenix Sparrow's Neidan, all this would be resolved. Once he condensed the Alioth Star, Long Chen was confident that even if they advanced to Bone Forging, he would still at least possess the power to protect himself from them.
== Barbaric Wind Beast ==
Returning the Violet Phoenix Sparrow's corpse back into his spatial ring, he took out the Barbaric Wind Beast's corpse. He also used the golden page to cut through its hard scales and took out its Neidan.
It went without saying that while the golden page didn't have much use in combat, just using it as a cutting knife was still extremely amazing.
The Barbaric Wind Beast's Neidan was about the same size as the Violet Phoenix Sparrow's Neidan. Long Chen summoned out Little Snow.
LC feeds the neidan to Little Snow.
To Little Snow, who was also a wind attribute Magical Beast, he possessed an innate advantage when it came to absorbing this Neidan. As long as he didn't rush, there wouldn't be any danger.
However, the Barbaric Wind Beast had been at the fifth rank, while Little Snow had only recently reached the fourth rank. So, it would require a certain amount of time to refine it.
But Long Chen wasn't impatient. Little Snow could just slowly refine it with safety as priority one. He also was planning on properly resting a while and honing his blade.
After settling Little Snow's matter, Long Chen used the golden page to cut open a cave within a large mountain. He then sealed the cave with himself inside. This way, Long Chen could focus completely on absorbing the Neidan's beast flame. But he first rested for two hours to raise his mental and spiritual states to their peaks.
== Violet Flame ==
Chen then absorbs the Phoenix's Violet Flame into his Pill Flame.
