Chapter 147 Inner Alchemy
"Xiaoxue, the speed at which you've risen through the ranks is astonishing..." Song Wanning said softly, her face full of surprise.
Her beautiful eyes shone with disbelief as she stared intently at Ye Chuxue.
Ye Chuxue's lips curled up slightly, revealing a faint smile: "I didn't expect to encounter a king-level beast this time. It has really brought me unexpected gains. So many points have caused my military rank to rise a lot at once."
As the two watched the score numbers on the screen increase rapidly, their excitement grew. "Three thousand, four thousand... seven thousand! My God, we've already earned twenty-five thousand points!" Song Wanning couldn't help but exclaim, her voice trembling with excitement.
"This is much more than the points we get from grinding through a dungeon!" Song Wanning clasped her hands together, her eyes filled with surprise and envy.
Ye Chuxue's face was also filled with joy, but soon, a trace of worry crept onto her brow.
She bit her lip gently and asked worriedly, "But, if my cultivation level can't keep up with such a rapid promotion, won't it cause dissatisfaction among my comrades?"
Upon hearing this, Song Wanning thought for a moment and then replied earnestly, "Don't worry, Xiaoxue."
Since such a rare opportunity is before us, we must seize it firmly. As long as you can demonstrate the corresponding strength, others will have nothing to say.
Moreover, you now have enough points to buy more resources that will help you cultivate and speed up your cultivation progress.
Hearing Song Wanning's encouraging words, Ye Chuxue felt a surge of warmth in her heart.
She took a deep breath, nodded, and her eyes gradually hardened: "Yes, you're right. I can't miss this opportunity. I must work twice as hard to improve my skills as quickly as possible!"
……
After the surging tide of beasts receded slowly, people began to clean up the battlefield and painstakingly dragged back the enormous, terrifying corpse of the python.
For humans, these powerful and alien creatures contain many precious and usable materials, which can be used as excellent raw materials to manufacture all kinds of sophisticated equipment.
Night fell, and all was quiet. Song Wanyin, having finished a long day of running around, finally returned to her lodgings.
As soon as she entered, she eagerly searched for the two people who had participated in the battle during the day—Ye Chuxue and Song Wanning. Soon, she spotted them in a corner.
"Xiaoxue, Xiaoning, did you two work together to kill that huge python?" Song Wanyin walked quickly to the two of them, staring intently at them, and asked anxiously.
Upon hearing her sister's question, Song Wanning quickly shook her head and explained, "Sister, we didn't kill that giant python together!"
Actually, it was entirely thanks to Xiaoxue's own efforts that she managed to kill him; I didn't really help much at all." After saying that, she glanced apologetically at Ye Chuxue beside her.
As soon as Song Wanning finished speaking, Ye Chuxue nodded silently, indicating that she agreed with what Song Wanning said.
Immediately afterwards, Song Wanyin carefully took out a bead that emitted a mysterious purple light from her bosom.
Upon seeing the bead, Song Wanning's eyes widened, and she leaned forward with a face full of curiosity, asking, "Sister, what is this? Why does it look so special?"
Song Wanyin smiled slightly and replied softly, "Silly girl, this is the inner core nurtured inside that strange beast." As she spoke, she gently picked up the bead and placed it tenderly in Ye Chuxue's outstretched palm.
"Inner core?" Ye Chuxue murmured to herself, gazing at the bead in her hand that shone with a strange light.
Clearly, she was quite confused by this unfamiliar word.
Seeing this, Song Wanyin patiently explained further: "You should know that as the cultivation time of the strange beasts increases and their cultivation level improves, their own strength will also become stronger and stronger."
When they cultivate to a certain level, an inner core will naturally condense within their bodies. This inner core is similar to a magic crystal or magic core in our world, possessing extremely special and important functions.
"This must be very precious, but why..." Ye Chuxue looked at the inner core in her hand, which was emitting a mysterious light, with a heart full of doubt. Before she could finish speaking, Song Wanyin interrupted her.
Song Wanyin nodded slightly and said softly, "Actually, this inner core was given to us by Commander Zhao."
Upon hearing the words "Commander Zhao," Ye Chuxue's eyes widened in surprise, and she repeated, "Commander Zhao?"
Song Wanyin smiled and nodded, then continued to explain, "If it weren't for your timely help today, we would have certainly suffered heavy losses."
It should be understood that relying solely on Elder Mo and Elder Xie's strength would be extremely difficult to contend with those three powerful king-level alien beasts.
Moreover, without your assistance, another beast might have taken advantage of the situation and launched a fierce attack on our city.
At this point, Song Wanyin paused, then continued, "After Commander Zhao learned that it was your valiant fight, he specifically instructed my elder brother to send this inner core to you as a token of his gratitude."
At this moment, Song Wanning, who had been standing silently to the side, also stepped forward and said with a smile, "Xiaoxue, since Commander Zhao is so kind, and you obtained this inner core by successfully killing the strange beast on your own, just accept it. Who knows, it might come in very handy someday!"
Faced with Song Wanning's sincere persuasion, Ye Chuxue hesitated for a moment before finally accepting the precious inner core.
She pondered to herself, although she had not yet mastered the power of lightning and only possessed the power of ice, fire, light, darkness and chaos, who could say that she would not make a breakthrough in the future?
Perhaps at some point in the future, this inner core will truly be able to help her achieve extraordinary things.
After this matter was over, Song Wanyin spoke up again: "Besides this matter, there is actually another one."
"Is there anything else?"
"Commander Zhao wants to see you; it seems he has something he wants to tell you."
"Don't you know what it is?"
Song Wanyin shook her head: "Commander Zhao didn't say anything, he just wanted to see you. If you don't want to, that's fine too."
Song Wanning and Ye Chuxue exchanged a glance and said in unison, "Let's go!"
