When the Dark Pearl Grass and the Roc Beast Soul started fusing, the Peng's beast spirit immediately underwent a change, as if a ball of mist was slowly dispersing.

Lin Zi Chen nodded his head. ”Xiao Feng, is this how the Peng refined itself?”

”Yes, master. The excitement of the Nether Pearl Grass on the soul of the Roc Beast was extremely great, and could even be said to be extremely painful. Therefore, to the Roc Clan, this entire process was a purgatory of their own.”

”Self-purgatory?” Lin Zi Chen couldn't help but take a deep breath, ”Whether it's a martial artist or a beast, this kind of process is unavoidable ….”

As he spoke, Lin Zichen thought about how a martial artist could go through purgatory to a certain extent. Even if they were to face a tribulation, it was impossible for them to escape it, no matter how powerful their cultivation was.

As for the tribulation life form, it would become an Immortal body, and when it died, it would become a soul which would eventually be destroyed.

This was the case with Empyrean Profound Sky Sect. In one tribulation, they had destroyed the life of this peerless martial artist, and in the end, turned into a soul state.

Thinking up to here, Lin Zichen sighed to himself. If one did not pursue martial arts, then their cultivation would stop forever if they did not transcend the tribulation. However, even though transcending tribulation could allow one to be reborn, one would still run the risk of being destroyed.

The wager would be on his cultivation base for the rest of his life!

”Master, what's wrong?” Seeing Lin Zichen's slightly hesitant expression, Xiao Feng said.

Lin Zi Chen shook his head and smiled, ”Nothing much, perhaps this is the Peng's fate. When I met it at the Shi Peng Mountain, I could already feel that it had the strength of a late stage Leftover Fan. After this purgatory, I believe it will undergo an astonishing transformation.”

Xiao Feng nodded when she heard this. ”Perhaps. However, when the Peng was saving me, it was sealed to a certain extent. It said that its cultivation will remain at the peak of the Slough Mortal Realm. I wonder if it will break the seal this time.”

”What?” It was also sealed? ”

”Yes, the entire Ice Phoenix clan was sealed, and when the Peng clan came to save them, most of them were sealed as well.”

Lin Zi Chen sighed, ”So it's like that, then it depends on the Peng's fate...”

Lin Zi Chen knew that even though Xiao Feng had always said that he was seventy-six years old, he was still a child among the Ice Phoenix race's undead lifespans. Thus, he could not remember many things, including who sealed the Ice Phoenix race, so he did not continue asking.

In the next few days, the Roc Beast's soul seemed to be firmly stuck in the Abyss Pearl Grass as if it had an instinctive desire to live. However, one could still hear the pain the Roc had in Purgatory from the low moans that came from the beast soul.

Most of the time, Lin Zichen was cultivating behind closed doors. Every once in a while, he would withdraw from his cultivation to observe the movements of the Peng. Only when he saw that there were no unusual movements did he continue cultivating with ease.

However, in the past few days, Lin Zicheng had unexpectedly discovered that the little purple lion had undergone a significant change. In just a few days, the little purple lion's body had grown to almost twice its original size.

However, it was the same as before, sleeping deeply every day. Moreover, one could tell from its peaceful expression that it was dreaming.

Lin Zi Chen finally understood what the Purple Lion King meant. He didn't want the little purple lion to interfere in the battle between the Purple Lion Clansmen. After all, he was just too naive. There wasn't even the slightest trace of hostility from this lion.

From then on, Lin Zichen secretly decided that even if he might meet with the Purple Lion Clan again in the future, he would not allow the little purple lion to interfere.

Yan Jing, Long Chuan Medical Group.

In the CEO's office, Zhou Xiaodong was signing a thick stack of documents on the table. Because she was always serious, Zhou Xiaodong did not sign the documents right away. Instead, she would read every single document carefully before making a decision.

Although this would appear a bit slow on the surface, it avoided a lot of mistakes. She would also mark down the reasons for some unreasonable applications and ask her subordinates to modify them.

At this moment, there were a few knocks on the door, and a graceful figure walked in.

The woman who walked in wore long, wavy brown hair. Her facial features were elegant, and her chest was proud. As she walked, she exuded a mature aura.

She placed a folder on Zhou Xiaodong's desk and said, ”Xiaodong, look at the Lan family medicine industry's semi-annual financial report and two projects' plans.”

Zhou Xiaodong raised her head. ”Sister Yi, it's been hard on you. Did you go over personally?”

”Hur hur, that's right. I can't be at ease giving such an important item to someone else.” Huang Yi said with a smile.

Huang Yi had already been in Dragon Propagation for a few days. She took Lin Zichen's recommendation letter and sat in her position as sales director, but didn't mention her relationship with Lin Zichen.

She knew, everyone was a girl, even she would be jealous when she found out that Lin Zi Chen had other girls, let alone these younger girls. Therefore, she hoped that things would go well here and get on good terms with everyone.

Zhou Xiaodong nodded. ”Hur Hur, looks like we are all the same. We all like to do it ourselves. Little Yu is here, and she's a good manager. It's only reasonable to use her underlings.”

”Xiao Yu? ”Who is that?” Before coming to Dragon Plane, Huang Yi had asked Lin Zichen about Zhou Xiaotong, Lan Luoshi, and Jiang Yu, but now she was just playing dumb.

”He's my assistant. However, I went to the Milky Way with the chairman a while ago and I haven't returned yet. I went to the Orchid Mountain these few days and I think that he will be back soon.”

As Zhou Xiaodong spoke, she opened the folder and began to look through the documents related to the Lan family's medicine industry.
