Put Away Your Divine Techniques Now!-Chapter 1051 - 313: White Elephant Tribe
Chapter 313 [White Elephant Tribe]
The Three-Colored Divine Duster, with Chen Yan’s current cultivation level, can only be used three times a day.
When facing the Copper Masked Man, Chen Yan knew the opponent’s strength far surpassed his own. Therefore, he didn’t hold back and used all three strikes at once, which ended up injuring the Copper-faced Giant!
Because Chen Yan’s attack was so fierce, and injuring the opponent in just three strikes, the Copper Masked Man misjudged Chen Yan’s strength. Such ambush situations can’t last long to avoid others coming, so he chose to retreat.
After using the duster three times, Chen Yan unsurprisingly exhausted all his Primordial Qi and collapsed on the spot.

"I vaguely feel like you fed me something?"
Chen Yan barely sat up, feeling a thin stream of Primordial Qi flowing in his body. Although it was scarce, it wasn’t as dry as before.
"A little spiritual medicine to replenish Primordial Qi." Gu Tongbing looked at Chen Yan and shook his head, "You didn’t suffer any severe injuries, just exhaustion. My medicine is rich in Primordial Qi, perfect for you."
Saying this, he glanced at Chen Yan, nodded, and said, "It looks like your complexion has improved, are you feeling better?"
"I’m fine, um..." Chen Yan thought for a moment and added, "Thank you."
He then stopped talking and sat there meditating, channeling Primordial Qi.
After about an hour, there was noise outside the cave. Chen Yan opened his eyes and heard the bald-headed man’s voice from outside: "Fellow Daoist inside, I found some food nearby. Would you two like...?"
Gu Tongbing didn’t speak, but Chen Yan had already replied loudly, "Sure, we’ll come out right away."
Saying this, he glanced at Gu Tongbing, who understood and merely smiled without saying anything.
The two of them then crawled out of the bear cave one after the other.
The bald-headed man stood about ten steps away from the cave, holding a large leaf he had picked from somewhere, with dozens of half-green, half-purple fruits on it.
"I searched around and found a cluster of wild green-thread apricots, so I picked some. Would you two like to try some?" The bald-headed man said politely, taking two steps forward and gently placing the leaf-wrapped fruits in front of Chen Yan and Gu Tongbing, then retreated a few steps.
He seemed to seriously scrutinize Chen Yan, took a deep breath, and suddenly bent his knees, kneeling on the ground! Bowing to Chen Yan, he said loudly: "I owe my life to your rescue! If you don’t mind, could you tell me your name so that I might repay you someday if possible!"
Chen Yan was taken aback for a moment, then coughed and said slowly, "Well...I just happened to pass by. Those people ambushed the airship, so sinister and vicious, I just couldn’t stand by and watch, that’s why I stepped in."
"A life-saving grace must be repaid!" The bald-headed man said loudly, "I may not have much to offer, but I know honor!"
Chen Yan thought for a moment and said with a smile, "Alright then, if you really want to repay me, help me with something."
"Please speak, benefactor! I’ll go through fire and water, no matter the cost!"
Chen Yan chuckled, pulled the bald-headed man up from the ground, and led him aside, walking more than ten steps away.
Seeing Chen Yan clearly talking privately, Gu Tongbing couldn’t help but roll his eyes, ignoring the two, and bent to grab a few of the apricots the bald-headed man brought, biting into one fiercely.
"Hmph, not sweet at all."
Gu Tongbing muttered coldly with a blank expression.

"You came from Snow Cliff Pass, so I suppose you plan to return there afterward, right?"
"Yes." The bald-headed man nodded respectfully.
Chen Yan said slowly, "When you return, about eighty miles northeast within the pass, there’s a place nestled between two mountain peaks, surrounded by a forest, roughly over ten miles in area. Do you know it?"
The bald-headed man thought seriously, nodded, and said, "I know it, that place is called Galloping Horse Mountain. It’s far from the main road, sparsely populated. But I have heard of it."
Chen Yan nodded, speaking seriously, "When you go back, prepare three hundred live birds and a hundred live livestock, then drive them into that forest.
Remember, once they’re inside, leave immediately, don’t linger, and no spying.
Can you do it?"
The bald-headed man froze; what an odd request was this?
But being streetwise, he turned the thought over in his mind and guessed: Could it be that this benefactor has some kind of beast hidden in the forest, needing me to deliver food?
"Don’t worry, benefactor, I will handle this small matter meticulously!"
With that, the bald-headed man swore by the Heavenly Dao, promising to fulfill Chen Yan’s request without any espionage.
Chen Yan nodded, "Good, if you do this for me, it will be counted as repaying the life-saving grace."
Yes, when I left Snow Cliff Pass for the Domain Realm’s mainland, I left Big White in that forest.
It’s been a long time since I last visited, so this opportunity will let the bald-headed man deliver a batch of livestock for Big White to feast.
Thinking about this, he pointed to the distance, "You can leave now."
"Huh?" the bald-headed man was surprised, "I leave now?"
"What else?" Chen Yan smirked, "Brother, don’t tell me you want to enact the drama of ’remaining as an ox or horse for saving my life’?"
