Lu Changsheng took out a Purple Gold Bagua Gourd sealed with Talismans, which contained a drop of Demon Blood.
This was a drop of the Ancient Demon Marshal’s blood, extremely pure and containing fragments of the Demon Marshal’s origin.
Lu Changsheng asked Dugu Aotian to Refine the Demon Marshal’s blood to enhance his Demonic Cultivation Skills.
Dugu Aotian used Ice Lotus Immortal Dew to maintain his original heart and began to Refine the Demon Blood.
As the Demon Blood merged into Dugu Aotian’s body, purifying his marrow and veins, Dugu Aotian’s eyes turned blood-red, and he let out a painful low growl.
The blood of the Ancient Demon Marshal contained the understanding of the Great Dao by that Demon Marshal from Ancient Times, as well as memories of the Demon Sects’ Cultivation Techniques he mastered.
The thirteen-tier Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, “Ice Lotus Immortal Dew,” diffused a soothing chill, yet they struggled to contain the influence of the Demon Marshal’s Blood on Dugu Aotian.
Therefore, Lu Changsheng personally took action, using Ziqi True Qi to suppress the evil aura of the Demon Marshal’s Blood, to prevent Dugu Aotian from becoming lost in deviltry. Your next chapter awaits on My Virtual Library Empire
With the suppression of the Ziqi True Qi, Dugu Aotian finally calmed down and absorbed the vital fragments from within the Demon Marshal’s Blood.
A single drop of the Demon Marshal’s Blood was sufficient to bring about a Rebirth in Dugu Aotian, who was at the Quasi-Emperor realm.
[Ding, you have bestowed the “Demon Marshal’s Blood” onto your disciple Dugu Aotian, but the system reward return for mentorship has failed.]
What’s going on?
Recently, when Lu Changsheng bestowed treasures of higher tiers, he kept facing failures.
Lu Changsheng had become numb to it.
Could the Demon Marshal’s Blood be the limit then?
Lu Changsheng still had three drops of the Demon Marshal’s Blood.
This one drop of Demon Marshal’s Blood should be enough for Dugu Aotian to digest for a while, better to bestow the rest to Dugu Aotian later.
A gloomy Lu Changsheng took out other treasures and rewarded them to Dugu Aotian.
[Ding, you have bestowed the “Nine Yang Holy Transformation Pill,” a sixteen-tier Immortal Pill, onto your disciple Dugu Aotian and received a hundredfold return mentorship reward: the “True Yang Limitless Pill,” a seventeen-tier Immortal Pill.]
Thankfully, when bestowing Elixir Pills, the probability of system awards still seems very high, otherwise Lu Changsheng would truly have been disheartened these days.
[Ding, you have bestowed the “Hongmeng Purple Ginseng,” a sixteen-tier Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, onto your disciple Dugu Aotian and received a hundredfold return mentorship reward: the “Hongmeng Purple Ginseng King,” a seventeen-tier Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures.]
[Ding, you have bestowed the “Seven-Colored Celestial Python Gallbladder Detoxification Immortal Pill,” a sixteen-tier Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, onto your disciple Dugu Aotian and received a hundredfold return mentorship reward: the “Cure-all Detoxification Pill,” a seventeen-tier Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures.]
[Cure-all Detoxification Pill: Capable of curing thousands of rare diseases, even innate defects can be remedied.]
With the system returning several treasures, Lu Changsheng was rather satisfied, at least the system wasn’t defunct.
The Demon Marshal’s Blood had not returned a reward, most likely because it did not trigger the corresponding reward multiplier.
In general, when such rewards do return successfully, they could be extremely rare treasures.
“Longevity, come to the back mountain,” Lin Xuantong’s voice resonated within Lu Changsheng’s mind.
Lu Changsheng arrived at the back mountain, where Lin Qinghan was also present.
Lin Qinghan had already broken through to the first level of the Immortal Emperor.
Lin Qinghan’s beauty was absolute, as she stood gracefully. Becoming an Immortal Emperor, her temperament became even more extraordinary.
Before Lu Changsheng joined the Taihua Divine Mountain, Lin Qinghan was the most talented disciple of her generation within the Holy Land, currently ranked fifty in the Qilin Ranking, and her future standing was expected to rise even higher.
Lin Qinghan, seeing Lu Changsheng’s arrival, had a hint of silent reproach in her eyes.
Ever since Xia Ningxue arrived at Taihua Divine Mountain, the time Lu Changsheng spent cultivating with Lin Xuantong had decreased, after all, Lu Changsheng also had to find time to practice the Yin Yang Dual Cultivation Skills and Holy Spirit Sword Art.
Lin Xuantong knew his disciple had some secrets, but as long as he could improve his cultivation, he left Lu Changsheng to arrange his own cultivation time.
“Next year is the grand occasion of the Mother of Yaochi’s 80 millionth birthday, and the Holy Land of Yaochi has decided to convene the Yaochi Assembly, inviting the Saint Lords, Holy Sons, and Holy Maidens from every major Holy Land to attend the Yaochi Assembly,” announced Lin Xuantong to his daughter and disciple after they arrived.
An 80 millionth birthday?
This was the first time Lu Changsheng had heard of the Mother of Yaochi’s age.
Unlike the long-lived Demon Race, human cultivators generally had shorter lifespans, unless they had special physiques like the Everlasting Verdant Body, which could rival the Demon Race in longevity.
However, human cultivators had the advantage of being able to rapidly improve their realms without the need for too many Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures.
The fact that the Mother of Yaochi had lived 80 million years, her cultivation level was simply terrifying.
“At every Yaochi Assembly, the Holy Land of Yaochi will present various exceptional Immortal Peaches to entertain the guests, and each Holy Land will also offer treasures as congratulatory gifts,” he continued.
“The Mother of Yaochi is an elder and also your mother’s mentor, Han’er. We, from Mount Taihua, must not lose face in propriety. You two juniors should also prepare a birthday gift to present to the Mother of Yaochi. Since you both are juniors, a sixteenth-tier gift would suffice. What matters is the sentiment,” instructed Lin Xuantong.
“At that time, geniuses from all the Holy Lands will gather at the Holy Land of Yaochi, where they will inevitably exchange pointers. It’s a good opportunity for you to spar with the talents from other Holy Lands and broaden your horizons.”
Lin Xuantong briefly explained the matters of the Yaochi Assembly.
Having married a disciple of the Mother of Yaochi, Lin Xuantong held great respect for her. With the Mother of Yaochi celebrating her 80 millionth birthday, it was certain that Lin Xuantong from the Holy Land of Taihua would attend.
The Mother of Yaochi was acquainted with many Saint Lords and Supreme Elders of other Holy Lands, who might even be considered her juniors. Therefore, out of respect for the Mother of Yaochi, most other Holy Lands would likely attend the Yaochi Assembly as well.
This was a grand occasion in the Immortal Realm.
“Longevity, at the upcoming Yaochi Assembly, try to compete for the top three in the Qilin Ranking to bring some honor to our Mount Taihua. Otherwise, if your cultivation time exceeds 500,000 years, you will no longer be eligible for the Qilin Ranking,” he said.
