Cultivating for a hundred lifetimes to ascension - Chapter 728: 434: Wrapping Up and Setting Off!_2

Chapter 728: Chapter 434: Wrapping Up and Setting Off!_2

Zhao Linsong absentmindedly followed suit in prostrating himself on the ground, feeling rather bewildered internally and thinking to himself, “Why does this speech sound so familiar?”

Zhao Sheng nodded in satisfaction, casually tossing the Red Gold Talisman aside like a discarded shoe.

“The first task I entrust to you is to focus entirely on enhancing your cultivation, so as to seize the greatest benefits for me on the day the Prisoner God Palace opens,” he instructed.

What?

Zhao Linsong was somewhat taken aback upon hearing the old man’s vague and bizarre request.

Seeing the two hesitating, Zhao Sheng suddenly sneered, “Hmph, what’s the matter? Are you not willing?”

The purple-clothed woman Xiao Quan’er responded quickly, “Your lordship misunderstands us, we are willing. It’s just that the opening date of the Prisoner God Palace is uncertain, and the Elixir Pills will take effect in only two years. If it happens midway, I fear it might interfere with your lordship’s important affairs. Additionally, we do not know how to contact you, lordship.”

“That’s easy to solve!” Having said that, Zhao Sheng slid out two faintly clear Communication Jade Tablets from his sleeve and casually threw them into their chests.

“This is the Long-Distance Communication Jade; you may use it to contact me. But unless it is a matter of great importance, I’d rather you not disturb me, or you two will be held accountable.”

“As you command!” Xiao Quan’er relaxed inwardly and promptly bowed to respond.

Zhao Sheng nodded, then abruptly soared into the air. In the blink of an eye, he transformed into Mystic Light and ascended into the high sky, disappearing beyond the Cloud Sea.

At that moment, Zhao Linsong snapped out of his daze, exchanging an incredulous look with Xiao Quan’er as if they couldn’t believe they had just escaped death this time.

Both of them suddenly stood up supporting each other, each of their faces revealing a smile of narrow escape and joy.

But the next second, Zhao Linsong suddenly patted his thigh, “No, no! Something’s very wrong!”

Before he could figure out what was amiss, he overheard his beloved’s ecstatic exclamation, “Brother Zong, we’re rich!”

Saying this, Xiao Quan’er leaped up and swiftly flew a hundred yards away, where on the ground lay scattered remnants of flesh and blood, along with shining treasures…

Somebody was careless! They had “forgotten” to clear the battlefield before leaving.

Half a month later, just as Zhao Linsong had returned to Black King Peak, he immediately rushed excitedly to the ginseng garden behind the mountain.

However, he came upon an empty building; the garden’s small pavilion was deserted except for a Sky Blue Jade Scroll placed on the table.

Zhao Linsong picked up the Jade Scroll, pressing it to his forehead.

Moments later, he mumbled to himself in a trance, “A drop contains a world, a leaf represents a Buddha tower! Mount Sumeru encompasses the sea…”

…

One year later, Earth Core Fire Sea, Golden Lotus Testing Ground

That day, Zhao Sheng walked along the smooth, mirror-like metallic corridor, and with each cell he passed, he dropped a colorful Spirit Pill through the aperture into the mouth of the subject within.

From the ordinary lifeforms of the first three layers to the extraordinary creatures and Corpse Ghost Demons of the subsequent five layers, none escaped swallowing an Antibacterial Pill.

The Antibacterial Pill was, as the name implies, an elixir designed to suppress Devil Mushroom activity.

Before this, Zhao Sheng had also tried to create an elixir that could exterminate Devil Mushrooms.

The majority of these attempts ended in failure, though some did succeed in extermination; however, the outcome invariably resulted in the bizarre deaths of the subjects.

Later, he changed his approach, focusing on developing something to suppress Devil Mushrooms.

Development went surprisingly smoothly, and he quickly came up with the initial version of the Antibacterial Pill, following the ‘fight poison with poison’ strategy.

Initially, the pill had massive side effects; most subjects would have their flesh rapidly decay into a pile of mush upon ingestion, and the higher the subject’s cultivation, the faster the decay.

After a series of improvements, the side effects were greatly reduced and the antibacterial effectiveness improved significantly.

The Antibacterial Pill had now successfully evolved to its seventh generation, and today was the first day of observation trials for its effects.

After a short time, half of the subjects had taken the Antibacterial Pill.

Zhao Sheng sat cross-legged on the ninth layer, allowing his vast Divine Thought to spread out fully, encompassing the two colossal metallic testing grounds. The condition of every subject’s body appeared in minute detail within his mind.

Time flows like water, and in the blink of an eye, half a month had passed.

One day, Zhao Sheng suddenly opened his eyes, exhaling a long breath, a slow smile of satisfaction spreading across his face.

The trial results were as expected, the seventh generation Antibacterial Pill was a success!

Four hours later, Dao Zhan respectfully exited Black King Cave, then quickly conveyed the decree to all the Golden Core Main Priests.

Within a short half month, the Yellow Heaven Sect was mobilized entirely. Bands of notorious and wicked bandits were successively captured and sent to the mountains behind.

Meanwhile, all sorts of Evil Demons and Outer Path cultivators within ten thousand miles of Skyfire Plain suddenly fell on hard times, as they were captured by Yellow Sky Sect Members and sent miserably into Black King Cave, never to be heard from again.

For over a decade, the Yellow Heaven Sect’s campaign to “fight evil and eliminate wrongdoing” made countless cultivators and mortals on Skyfire Plain clap their hands in delight and deeply admire their efforts.

For this reason, the spread of Yellow Heaven Sect’s doctrine accelerated, and billions from the Human Clan became Yellow Sky Sect believers.

As the Yellow Heaven theology, that encompasses the cycle of reincarnation and the legends of the Three Realms including immortals, mortals, and ghosts, took root in people’s hearts, it quickly spread from the Skyfire Plain to even broader domains, magnifying the influence of the Yellow Heaven Sect!

…

Boom boom!

A black and a gold stream of Heavenly Fire erupted simultaneously from the Platinum Thousand Flame Tripod.

After reaching mid-air, the two streams of Heaven and Earth True Fire collided with stunning accuracy, instantly exploding into a ball of Chaotic Gray Light.

The gray light engulfed the glittering Mao Day Gold Essence, in the blink of an eye, gone!

Zhao Sheng expertly reached out to invoke a strand of supremely pure Innate Gold Essence from a treasure bottle, which quickly settled onto the surface of Mao Day Gold Essence.
