Chapter 659: Chapter 565: Immortal Code?!! [Seeking Monthly Tickets, Seeking Subscriptions]

"After I leave, unless it’s absolutely necessary, the sect shouldn’t send you to the battlefield again. But just in case, if there is a war, you should voluntarily take on logistical tasks within the sect."

"Also, don’t sever the relationships within the sect, pay attention to the training of the Outer Sect disciples. Speaking of which, the genius from White Peach Peak is likely very powerful."

"I’ve inquired privately, all his information has been sealed by Chief Zhang. It is rumored that even the Sect Head has to apply to access it, although there might be some exaggeration involved."

"But now, the Taoist Lineage is going all out to promote him, create momentum for him. They even started all branches of Fu Tower."

"Whether our family can rise to power in the next millennium, is likely dependent on him."

"The Magic money of the Wentian Sect is somewhat credible. You must maintain a good relationship with him..."

Like an old man, Gu Yuncheng repeated his instructions again. He was not sure how long he could hold on, so he tried to explain everything as clearly as possible.

Yet this time, Gu Yuncheng didn’t faint in the middle of his instructions, instead, he gradually lapsed into a daze while talking.

"Also, the administrative office we’re in charge of..."

In his daze, Gu Yuncheng thought he was about to faint again and instinctively continued chattering.

But when he came back to his senses, he was shocked to find that his surroundings had completely changed.

In the endless Chaos Sea, an isolated island floated. At the top of the mountain, an ancient fairy palace stood.

In front of the main gate of the Immortal Palace, a huge stele was engraved with two vigorous characters: Penglai!

Next to it was a line of not too large yet not small words.

"Enter Penglai, change one’s life in the world."

"Shedding the mortal core, Ascending to Immortality in the remaining life."

The ancient script, filled with a sense of historical vicissitudes, was magnificent and inspiring.

In his mind, some information about the rules of Penglai began to emerge.

"Mental erosion? No, what kind of illusion technique this is? Could it really be a relic from ancient times?"

With the emergence of the information, Gu Yuncheng was shocked.

In his eight hundred years of life, he had seen too many things, and he knew very well that even a great practitioner of the Primordial Spirit could not do these things.

Solely, the feat of capturing his mind without resistance was impossible!

"Boom!"

While his thoughts flashed, the gate of the ancient fairy palace slowly opened, and a silver vortex appeared in front of him.

"Now that you’re in Penglai, you must be destined. Please enter the palace for a chat!"

In the great hall, a somewhat aged yet very vicissitudinous voice came, coupled with the fairy palace, giving a sense of great antiquity.

Gu Yuncheng calmed his thoughts.

If someone could detain him here without any resistance, then even if they wanted to do something to him, he wouldn’t have any chance to resist.

Not to mention his current state, even if he went back two hundred years, when he was in his prime, it would be the same.

Given this, he would take one step at a time.

Therefore, he quickly regained his composure and calmly stepped into the vortex.

A faint space shift, the next moment, a huge palace as if used by ancient Immortal Gods, appeared before his eyes.

In the palace, he seemed as insignificant as a tiny ant.

A divine light was overflowing from a huge container, as if it contained countless treasures of the world, which occupied most of the space in the palace.

Under the container, there was a table and a chair. Behind the counter, there sat a man with a very young face but an inexplicably vicissitudinous temperament, like an ancient fairy coming from ancient desolation.

Seeing him, Gu Yuncheng’s pupils constricted for a moment.

"Fellow Daoist Yun Zhongzi, I welcome this newly joined fortunate one to the Penglai Fairy Palace," Yun Zhongzi said in a soft voice.

"I am honored to meet senior!" Gu Yuncheng hurriedly replied.

"Your condition doesn’t seem very good?" Yun Zhongzi appraised him for a moment, then voluntarily said.

Gu Yuncheng smiled bitterly: "Senior, you’re really tactful. My situation is far from just ’not good’. I don’t even know how many days I have left to live."

"It’s not a big sickness, why do you look so defeated?" Yun Zhongzi calmly replied.

Gu Yuncheng abruptly lifted his head, staring at Yun Zhongzi, "Are you serious about this, senior?"

Yun Zhongzi’s face was calm as he gently said, "Since fellow Daoist has become a Penglai Fortunate One, you should know the related rules. Everything can be exchanged in the Penglai Fairy Palace, it’s not just talk!"

"And this injury of yours is the least significant issue."

"What’s the cost?" Gu Yuncheng asked with concern.

"Simple, a value of one million will suffice." Yun Zhongzi calmly replied.

A million magic money seemed like a lot, but to an Infant God Great Cultivator like him, any of the divine healing elixirs he had consumed during this period were no less valuable than that.

"Right, because you didn’t enter randomly, but were pulled in by the name list of the Ancient Taoist School’s Dao Talisman, you can also enjoy a special discount on any resources for cultivation breakthrough, with a 50% discount, and this time it’s not subject to the level limit of a Penglai Fortunate One."

Yun Zhongzi seemed to remember something and added.

"Dao Talisman from the Taoist School? What is that?" Gu Yuncheng asked, perplexed.

"You can understand it as a low-level order symbol issued by the Ancient Immortal Court, a reserve member for Immortal Gods. It’s similar to the low-level positions in your Sect’s Outer Sect."

"The difference, however, is that this position granted by the Ancient Taoist School can be granted a talisman for cultivation, and comes with various benefits."

"Every ancient power would at least recognize this."

"I see, it’s such a thing!"

With that, Yun Zhongzi casually beckoned, and a drawer at the bottom of the container opened, and a jade disc flew out.

"This is...?" Gu Yuncheng stared at the thing, his face stunned.

He was all too familiar with this jade disc, Wang Zijia had given two of these as gifts to his Gu family, and he himself had refined one. He had studied it for a long time, and couldn’t see anything remarkable about it.

He originally thought that Wang Zijia was just nonchalantly returning favor, but now it seems... Not only does he not owe the Gu family anything, but the Gu Family owes him a lot.

He had given such an opportunity, twice, what a gift in return...

The other party hadn’t even explained its power, this kind of friendship...

"It seems you have indeed reached the peak of the Infant God. You qualify to apply for the discount. Do you want to buy?"

"Let me clarify, this qualification cannot be stored. If you do not buy it this time, you cannot get it later. If you want to get it again, based on your Fortunate One level, you need to exchange treasures for its value, and then pay the full price." Yun Zhongzi inquired in a composed manner.

Gu Yuncheng was dazed and said, "Given my current state, can I still breakthrough?"

Yun Zhongzi shook his head and said, "Your injury is just that. You didn’t lack anything, and you didn’t lose anything. It’s just a bit of pollution. You still want to stake your life on it?"

"As for your cultivation, although it’s rather crappy, it’s the slow and steady type. It happens to be suitable for a type of elixir and barely qualifies for a dao talisman."

Hearing such seemingly plain words, Gu Yuncheng, who had the feeling of being scorned, was silent for a moment before saying, "Senior, how much contribution is required to buy the resources for breakthrough?"

"In your case, you’re only suitable for the Nine Revolution Golden Pill category of elixirs. This kind is much cheaper than other resources. You can get a Four-turn Golden Core for just ten million value units. There should be an 80% success rate in your case."

"If you feel it’s not secure, you can spend fifty million to buy a Five-turn Golden Core. There should be at least a 95% success rate."

"If you fail with these odds, with your luck, you might as well quit cultivating!"

"Nine Revolution Golden Pill? The one rumored to make one an immortal? Isn’t that an ancient legend?" Gu Yuncheng was flabbergasted and said, "That’s not just a rumor, right?"

"Who told you it was a rumor? Something that could turn an Earth Immortal into a Celestial Immortal after consumption, you think that’s a rumor?" Yun Zhongzi calmly retorted.

Gu Yuncheng: "······"

The clan had just supported Gu Yuebai’s breakthrough, and drawing out fifty thousand spirit essence could be a bit difficult. Even if all possible loans were used from the clan’s children, it might not be possible to raise it all.

But a thousand might barely be doable!

Normally, as long as he becomes a primordial spirit, no matter how much he owes, he could repay it. However...

He wasn’t alone, behind him was the whole Gu Family. As a man of his age, it was impossible, and he was not allowed to gamble with the futures of a whole family, let alone the whole clan.

If it weren’t for the great benefits of becoming a primordial spirit, both for him and for the clan, he wouldn’t even be willing to gamble with a thousand spirit essence.

"I choose to buy a Four-turn Golden Pill!" Gu Yuncheng said as such.

Yun Zhongzi looked at Gu Yuncheng in surprise, didn’t say much, and then with a wave of his hand, a dazzling spiritual light burst out from the container behind him.

The next moment, an extremely bright golden elixir slowly flew out. Amidst the rosy clouds and mystical images, it flew in front of a somewhat dazed Gu Yuncheng.

"The Nine Revolution Golden Pill series is made by refining special Immortal Spirit Qi as the main spiritual material. It will not only purify itself, but also adjust your entire Dao consistency, bringing you a variety of complex benefits. You will understand later."

As he said that, Yun Zhongzi paused and added, "By the way, after this pill is exposed, it will quickly dissipate its original special properties, so you need to consume it as soon as possible."

"Just eat it directly? With my current status?" Gu Yuncheng felt that this was somewhat childish.

He was practically on his deathbed, and suddenly he was told that if he ate this pill, he would recover fully and even breakthrough. This felt more miraculous than Journey to the West!

Are the ancient pill cultivators this terrifying?

If Four-turn is already this impressive, then what about Nine-turn?

"If you feel that it’s not sincere enough, you can also grit your teeth and get up, bathe, burn incense, offer prayers, do some homework, and ask various Immortal Gods for blessings."

Yun Zhongzi used extremely plain words to express his teasing content.

Making Gu Yuncheng feel that everything was even more childish, like a strange dream at the brink of death.

"Then how do I get out? I still need to prepare resources for Senior to exchange for contribution!"

"In that case, hurry and start healing and breakthrough, looking forward to the next meeting!"
