Chapter 581 - 414: The Celestial Orchid Sect’s Wrath, Birth of the Holy Pill
[Detected Divine Healing Pill, would you like to spend 8000 Immortal Crystals to simplify it?]
The next moment, the panel popped up with another prompt.
"Simplify!"
Chang’sheng made a decisive choice to simplify.
Although blowing 8000 Immortal Crystals stung a little, being able to max out pill proficiency in just one or two hours made it worth every bit.
Otherwise, for most people, mastering such a profound pill formula to perfection would take hundreds or even thousands of years.
[Great Dao is Simple: Divine Healing Pill simplification beginning... simplifying... simplification complete, Divine Healing Pill==tempering the body!]
"Tempering the body?"
Chang’sheng thought with a frown.
There were plenty of ways to temper the body, but the most brutal method was Celestial Thunder Tempering.
Chang’sheng exited the Great Hall and waved his hand to summon the Lightning Thunderclap Eagle.
Letting it continuously strike him with thunder and lightning, this way he could use the lightning to refine his physique.
Screee—
The moment the Lightning Thunderclap Eagle appeared, it immediately let out a series of ear-splitting shrieks.
Its wings beat, gathering the Power of Thunder all around its body.
Crack—
A raging surge of Power of Thunder blasted toward Chang’sheng.
Boom—
Chang’sheng faced the attack head-on with his own body, instantly enveloped in electricity as he frowned slightly.
Though his body was tough as steel, taking that hit without channeling Primordial Power was straight-up torture.
After all, the Power of Celestial Thunder was nothing like ordinary attacks.
Divine Healing Pill experience points +1!
Divine Healing Pill experience points +1!
...
Sure enough, with Celestial Thunder refining his body, his Divine Healing Pill experience points skyrocketed relentlessly.
Just like that, the Lightning Thunderclap Eagle kept attacking Chang’sheng again and again, and Chang’sheng bathed beneath the Celestial Thunder, forging his body even stronger.
While his body was getting refined, his pill formula proficiency kept shooting up like crazy—honestly, killing two birds with one stone.
Several miles away from the Celestial Soaring Palace, inside a pavilion at the imperial palace, Wu Hao was playing chess with an old man with snow-white hair.
At this moment, he’d already sensed everything happening inside Celestial Soaring Palace with his Divine Sense.
"This kid’s really something else—if I could make him mine, he could help me break through to the Immortal Realm for sure!"
Wu Hao slowly voiced his thoughts.
Chang’sheng was still so young, yet already this strong. His future potential was limitless.
"I fear this boy is no ordinary fish in the pond. Sooner or later, His Majesty may not be able to control him."
The old man sitting across from Wu Hao spoke slowly.
Even though he’d never actually met Chang’sheng, his Divine Sense had watched Chang’sheng for a long time already.
He felt that once Chang’sheng grew up, he’d never let himself be under anyone’s thumb.
"As long as he marries my daughter, he’ll be family. Why wouldn’t he help me then?"
Wu Hao’s gaze deepened.
The Immortal Realm—a realm countless cultivators dream of reaching!
Of course Wu Hao wasn’t any different; he longed for such a realm too.
"I’m afraid the boy won’t agree."
The old man stroked his long beard beneath his chin, sighing softly.
"He wouldn’t dare!"
Wu Hao snapped angrily. If Chang’sheng refused to marry Wu Yue, he’d just kill him on the spot; there’s no point in letting such a prodigy exist if he isn’t useful to him.
The old man simply shook his head, said no more, and finished the game, trapping all of Wu Hao’s chess pieces in one move.
"Your Majesty’s heart isn’t in the game, let’s play again another day."
The old man spoke quietly.
Wu Hao was certainly not in the mood—he stood up and left without another word.
He needed to talk to Wu Yue and hear what she thought after spending time with Chang’sheng.
...
Celestial Orchid Sect.
Located fifty thousand miles north of Celestial Emperor City, a peak soared into the clouds, seemingly piercing the very sky.
On the summit rose a grand, majestic palace.
"What? Yao’Er and Renping were killed by Chang’sheng?"
Inside the palace, several disciples knelt on the ground—they were the ones who’d escaped from Celestial Emperor City back to Celestial Orchid Sect.
All around were elders of advanced age, and even they looked shocked at the news.
Upon the high throne sat a brawny man, broad-shouldered and imposing.
When this mountain of a man heard that Zheng Yao and Liao Renping had been slain by Chang’sheng, he exploded in rage.
These two were among the best prodigies of Celestial Orchid Sect!
They were expected to become leaders of the sect someday—who would’ve thought they’d die in Celestial Emperor City?
"Impossible! Zheng Yao and Liao Renping are both at Integration Stage—if they couldn’t beat Chang’sheng, could they not even escape?"
Grand Elder Huo Zhi of Celestial Orchid Sect couldn’t believe it; even if Chang’sheng topped the Celestial Pride List, there was no way his cultivation could be that overwhelming.
Besides, the mission had both of them going together. Two Integration Stage cultivators, no way they could lose to Chang’sheng alone!
"Grand Elder, this is absolutely true! We wouldn’t dare lie, even a little. Even though Senior Brother Zheng and Senior Brother Liao were both at the Integration Stage, but against Chang’sheng, they couldn’t even take a single move—just, just died on the spot!"
The kneeling disciple rushed to explain.
Afraid he’d catch the brunt of the elders’ and Sect Leader’s anger.
"What? Couldn’t take a single move? Don’t lie to me!"
Huo Zhi snapped. How could the gap between two Integration Stage cultivators be so huge?
"We wouldn’t dare lie. Every word is true!"
"What Senior Brother Gao said is all true—we saw it with our own eyes! Chang’sheng was using a Divine Bow, an Upper Grade Heaven-Reaching Spirit Treasure. That Divine Bow was insanely powerful!"
"Yeah, it must’ve been that bow’s outrageous strength that killed Senior Brother Zheng and Senior Brother Liao!"
"But Chang’sheng was taken away by an expert from Celestial Emperor City, so he’s probably doomed now!"
...
The kneeling disciples all chimed in.
They would never dare to lie to the Sect Leader or elders, not even a little.
After all, Zheng Yao and Liao Renping both had absolutely exceptional backgrounds.
