Chapter 347 The Thirty-Year Agreement
Watching these two hypocritical people exchange polite formalities, everyone else wanted to complain! You guys are really something else!
Gu Xun'er covered her face in embarrassment. Seriously! Father! Your naming skills are truly astounding! What kind of "Emperor Blood Divine Grade Pill" is this?! You might as well just say "Battle Emperor Divine Grade Bloodline"!
Actually, the name of the elixir is not important; its effect is the most important! This is what Li Muyang thought, and Gu Yuan thought the same way.
Both of them appear to value etiquette, but in reality they are not fussy about details. They don't care about superficial things and value practical things more!
"Mr. Li, are you interested in promoting this elixir?" Gu Yuan asked with a smile. "If you are interested, the Gu Clan can help you with it! No payment is required! You only need to hand over the sales rights of this elixir to the Gu Clan!"
"Actually, the most important thing about this pill is not its ingredients, but the special power it contains," Li Muyang explained to Gu Yuan thoughtfully. "First, the ingredients I used may not even exist on the Dou Qi Continent. Second, and most importantly, the medicinal herbs are merely a catalyst. What truly enhances bloodline power is the trace of miraculous power originating from 'Creation' and 'Life' contained within the pill."
Seeing the doubt on Gu Yuan's face, Li Muyang remained calm and said slowly, "Clan Chief Gu Yuan, what I mean is that only I can refine this pill! Even if others possess the formula, it will be in vain! The key is that I really don't want to refine too many! It's just because... hehe, if there's too much 'fortune,' it's no longer a rare miracle!"
"This elixir contains a principle that defies the heavens! If someone with shallow fortune were to consume it, they would likely suffer divine retribution! They would surely incur the wrath of the heavens!"
Just as Li Muyang was chatting and laughing, the sky, which had been clear and sunny, was inexplicably covered by dark clouds, and in an instant, thunder roared and lightning flashed.
Gu Yuan swallowed hard. What was going on? He hadn't noticed Li Muyang using any power, yet this place had automatically formed thunderclouds resembling a heavenly tribulation! And the lightning truly seemed like the wrath of heaven and earth!
Could it be that... this elixir is truly envied by the heavens?
It wasn't that Gu Yuan was superstitious, but rather that someone who had reached his level could see through ordinary scams at a glance, yet he truly couldn't find any loopholes in the scene before him!
Xiao Yan and the others standing to the side secretly thought to themselves, "Li Muyang is fooling people again!"
Well, it's not exactly a lie, because the main ingredient in this pill is indeed the "Creation" added by Li Muyang. Without this power, the pill's effects wouldn't be so amazing! It can be said that as long as a person takes it, and as long as you live long enough and your body can withstand it, you will definitely be able to activate your divine bloodline.
However, Li Muyang did not purify the side effects of this thing, so the highest limit is only a divine-grade bloodline! He can only stay at the divine-grade bloodline level for the rest of his life.
Li Muyang naturally informed Gu Yuan about this side effect as well.
As for the purpose, it was simply to make Gu Yuan understand one thing: divine bloodlines are not invincible, and it is not so simple to obtain good fortune for no reason!
"This elixir is a creation of heaven and earth, a mystery that invades the sun and moon. It is a glimmer of hope under the heavenly way! The path of intercepting the heavens is not something that ordinary people can walk. If such an elixir is made at will and given to all living beings, let alone whether they can withstand this heavenly creation, if they commit sins in the future, I myself will have to bear a share of the karma!"
At this point, Li Muyang glanced at Xiao Yan and casually remarked, "I know you're probably thinking I'm lying, but you should have read 'Investiture of the Gods' and know what happened to the Jie Sect when all the immortals came to pay homage, right? If you have the Way but no skills, you can still acquire skills; if you have skills but no Way, you're limited to skills."
Xiao Yan was stunned for a moment. Recalling the fate of the Jie Sect, he suddenly felt that Li Muyang might not be deceiving him this time, but rather speaking his true feelings.
Well, in Li Muyang's view, the path of defying the heavens is not one that anyone can walk, so fortune cannot be given to everyone. Between teaching without discrimination and teaching according to aptitude, he prefers the latter.
However, following the way of Heaven is the path that most living beings should take.
Defying fate is not about defying fate itself, nor is it about indulging in desires. Defying fate is about rebelling against an unjust destiny! One must not act recklessly and do the opposite of everything! That's not defying fate, that's rebellion! It's treason!
"What you said today, sir, has deeply impressed me, Gu Yuan!" Gu Yuan said solemnly.
The Dou Qi Continent does not speak of the laws of heaven and cause and effect, but that does not mean they do not exist. It's just that ordinary people cannot feel or be aware of them, but someone of Gu Yuan's level must be able to sense them in the dark.
Unfortunately, despite his feelings, Gu Yuan didn't have a deep understanding of the specifics. Li Muyang's words did give Gu Yuan a new insight.
They shared their opinions, and Li Muyang politely declined Gu Yuan's idea to continue issuing the Emperor Blood Divine Pill. To put it bluntly, he meant that this thing was rare and valuable, and that producing too much of it would be against the natural order.
The bloodline of the Dou Di influences blood relatives, which is both a blessing and a restriction. As strong as it is, it is almost impossible for a Dou Di blood relative to become a Dou Di without external help. If a divine bloodline can necessarily make someone a Dou Di, wouldn't the Dou Qi Continent have been monopolized by various "second-generation emperors" in the past?
Bloodline is merely an aid, not a necessity. How far one can go on the path of cultivation ultimately depends on one's own perseverance and effort!
“Mr. Gu Yuan, would you be interested in witnessing this?” Li Muyang chuckled and pointed at Xiao Yan, saying, “The Xiao Clan has declined, and Xiao Yanzi doesn’t have any divine-grade bloodline. His Dou Di bloodline was exhausted by Xiao Xuan back then, but I can still guarantee that he will become a Dou Di within thirty years!”
Upon hearing this, Gu Yuan's eyes flashed with a sharp light. Yao Chen, Xiao Yan, and Xiao Zhan were still completely bewildered. Only Gu Xun'er and Nalan Yanran knew that the current Xiao family was the Xiao clan, one of the eight ancient clans, and that having the Tuoshe Ancient Jade meant that it was most likely the main branch!
"Sir, what you mean is..."
Li Muyang held up three fingers and said with a smile, "At most thirty years! Regardless of whether Xiao Yanzi can become a Dou Di, I will give Mr. Gu Yuan a strand of Origin Qi!"
Having said that, he took out a wisp of Origin Qi from his other hand.
Gu Yuan's eyes widened in disbelief! Although he had suspected this beforehand, seeing it with his own eyes, he truly found it difficult to contain his excitement! He almost lost his composure!
Li Muyang noticed Gu Yuan's excitement and chuckled before continuing, "Of course, if Xiao Yanzi becomes a Dou Di ahead of schedule, this Origin Qi can be given to Mr. Gu Yuan in advance."
"...What do you need me to do, sir?" Gu Yuanqiang asked, suppressing his excitement.
Li Muyang shook his head: "I don't need to do anything, just witness it! This isn't a bet, nor is it a betrothal gift I'm giving to the Gu Clan on behalf of my junior brother. Xiao Yanzi should handle these things himself. I just hope that Clan Chief Gu Yuan can witness the growth of a Dou Di! It's that simple!"
"Don't worry, there is no possibility that I will break the contract, because for me, the extremely precious Origin Qi in the Dou Qi Continent is not a scarce commodity! The Origin Qi I gave to the clan leader was just a personal gift."
Well, this is no joke. The Dou Qi Continent can lock up other people, but can it lock up Li Muyang? Moreover, the Dou Di bones he found earlier also contained a wisp of Origin Qi, which Li Muyang can already use to evolve through the power of Chaos!
Therefore, he really doesn't lack source energy! Of course, he couldn't say these words aloud, so as to leave Gu Yuan in suspense!
Gu Yuan smiled strangely at Li Muyang's words: "Sir, you are quite the schemer! For the sake of this wisp of Origin Qi, I'm afraid I shouldn't interfere with my daughter's and Xiao Yan's development any further."
Li Muyang smiled calmly as usual. Regardless of whether he really meant it, the fact that the topic was brought up meant that he meant it! Gu Xun'er and Xiao Yan blushed and became shy. Nalan Yanran was a little jealous, but she knew the occasion and didn't express it, standing still properly.
"So be it! It's been thousands of years! What's another thirty years? I can wait!" Gu Yuan laughed heartily, full of bravado. Thirty years for a cricket! He could just wait!
Moreover, he was also somewhat looking forward to it. If Xiao Yan could really become a Dou Di within thirty years, that would truly be a legend! Wouldn't it be a good thing to have such a person as his son-in-law? In any case, he wouldn't lose out on this agreement!
Moreover, while it's hard for other members of the ancient clan to say anything about the current situation of the Xiao family, Gu Yuan felt somewhat guilty.
After finishing this topic, Li Muyang wasted no time and prepared to help Yao Lao revive, inviting Gu Yuan to watch the process together!
"Isn't it because we lack different kinds of fire?" Xiao Yan asked.
Yao Chen stroked his beard and explained, "Originally, three different flames were needed to achieve the desired effect, but your senior brother was already at the peak of the Dou Sheng realm, and his Samadhi True Flame was no ordinary flame, so it wasn't necessary to have more than three different flames."
Li Muyang silently waved his hand, summoning Samadhi True Fire, Sun God Fire, Chaos Fire, the Cleansing Divine Fire from the Shennong Beast, the Qingqiu Fox Fire from Xiaobai... and even the Suihuang Firewood that Li Muyang had asked Li Yunfei for, which resided within the Kongtong Seal.
Seeing the stunned expressions on everyone's faces, Li Muyang laughed smugly to himself, but on the surface he remained calm and composed: "I have plenty of divine fire here, so teacher and junior brother don't need to worry!"
Gu Yuan, regaining his compliment, said, "Mr. Li's luck is truly astonishing!"
These are all divine flames that Gu Yuan has never seen before. He feels that if they were on the list of strange flames, apart from the Emperor Flame Eternal Ruler that he has never seen before, the rest would have to be ranked lower!
The main reason is that the Emperor Fire Eternal Ruler is said to be for Dou Di (Battle Emperor), while Gu Yuan believes that Li Muyang is still at the peak of Dou Sheng (Battle Saint), so he shouldn't be able to push the Eternal Ruler out. In fact... those who know, know.
Since the goal is to revive Teacher Yao Chen, then the best conditions must be met!
The refining of the Bone-Growing and Blood-Melting Pill was easy. Li Muyang summoned the multi-functional magic weapon, the Kongtong Seal, and transformed it into a pill cauldron before starting the refining process.
Everything went smoothly until the appearance of the pill lightning. When Gu Yuan wanted to help, he saw Li Muyang dive into the tribulation clouds, while the Shennong Beast, which had transformed into a jade unicorn, was looking at the pill furnace.
To everyone's astonishment, the tribulation in the sky, which had inexplicably transformed into black demonic lightning, dissipated before their very eyes... Oh, it was absorbed by Li Muyang.
