The Golden Elixir is A Star, and You Call This Cultivation?

Chapter 1408: Chapter 607: Mission, Heavenly King Mountain and Mercury Palace_2

After all, gods are unknown and terrifying creatures to them.

"Alright, I’ve waved my hand, I have more important matters to attend to.

By the way, the god you worship is named Qi Yuan Heavenly Venerable."

Qi Yuan said, and then his figure disappeared.

He made the beings of the Sky Federation worship him to increase faith and to coalesce the Plane Spirit through that faith.

The Sky Federation has no Plane Spirit.

By coalescing the Plane Spirit using faith, Qi Yuan transferred the Calamity and the Drowning Curse onto himself.

In this way, he could protect the Abandoned Land.

This was also his method.

Of course, for Abandoned Lands with their own Plane Spirits, it wasn’t so complicated.

They just needed to devour the Plane Spirit to transfer the Calamity and Drowning Curse onto themselves.

Qi Yuan left the meeting room and his figure appeared in many places.

Possibly in front of a pond.

His voice, carrying an inexplicable charm, said: "Carp, crucian carp, turtles, planarians...you must worship me."

Maybe in front of a mountain.

"Tigers, sparrows, tung trees...you must worship me."

Throughout the Sky Federation, Qi Yuan’s figure appeared everywhere.

Every living being, he harvested their faith.

"Stones, gold elements, protons, cations...must you worship me?"

Finally, Qi Yuan asked tentatively.

But this time, he didn’t get the answer he wanted.

"These...can’t worship me."

"Detection alert...Guard Star Domain, suspected presence of True God Strong People."

In a sealed palace, a voice echoed.

Inside the palace, there were many large cocoons, colorful and diverse.

Following the voice, three cocoons shattered, and a powerful presence permeated at that moment.

Three True God Strong People walked out from within,

their bodies exuding the aura of the Divine Oracle Realm.

"Is it time to get moving?" The leading man had red hair, a frivolous expression and wore streamlined armor.

"It looks like we’re in for a tidy profit this time." The burly woman spoke, her eyes covetous.

The last person, clothed in a Black Robe and enveloped in darkness, preferred not to speak.

"The same rule as always: whoever contributes the most gets the most resources," the red-haired man stated, his eyes filled with anticipation.

"Hopefully... the resources on him are substantial." The burly woman licked her thick tongue.

They hailed from Heavenly King Mountain, part of a mysterious alliance.

In the outside world, cultivating was tight due to their reputation as Rough Cultivators.

However, in the Abandoned Land, they could get tasks, hunt, and reap the True Gods who strayed into this place.

After hunting these True Gods, the inheritance of the True Gods went to them.

Moreover, they would also receive rewards from the mysterious organization.

This was even more exhilarating than being Rough Cultivators.

"Hope he’s a wealthy god, preferably...with a deep background," the burly woman said lightly.

This way, their harvest would be even richer.

"Aren’t you afraid... his treasure is ample enough to wield power beyond his realm?" the red-haired man remarked lightly.

"This is the Abandoned Land... even if he is a God Lord, so what?" The burly woman slapped her streamlined Silver Clothes, "I have my Water-Fire Silver Clothes to fend off the calamity; what about him?

The longer he stays in the Abandoned Land, the deeper he gets tangled in karma, and the closer he is to death."

This special garment is constructed by the mysterious organization.

They appear on their bodies only during missions.

After the mission, these would be reclaimed.

These garments effectively prevent deep entanglement with the Abandoned Land and isolate karmic calamity.

"Only as a last resort should this method be used, otherwise, we won’t receive the organization’s rewards," the red-haired man said lightly.

Indeed, this method was omnipotent.

Letting the calamity and curse of the Abandoned Land attack the enemy.

But in doing so, their mission wouldn’t count as completed.

Their goal was to reap, to hunt the True Gods who strayed here, not to use the calamity power of the Abandoned Land to attack.

After all, the latter would only yield the inheritance of that True God.

"Don’t worry, together, aren’t we his match?" the burly woman stated.

The red-haired man nodded: "We need to speed up, otherwise if someone else completes the task, wouldn’t we have been busy for nothing?"

"Hmph, last time I almost killed a pretty boy, but those from the Mercury Palace actually rescued him, it’s so infuriating." Mentioning this, the burly woman was quite angry.

The tasks assigned by the organization were not only taken up by the three of them.

Moreover, people from different forces also employ different means to complete the tasks.

Heavenly King Mountain generally hunts down the intruders, claims their inheritance as well as the organization’s rewards.

As for Mercury Palace, they persuade the intruders to leave.

Of course, persuading them to leave... doesn’t mean you’re safe once you’ve left the Abandoned Land.

"The Guard Star Domain contains many plane worlds. We should split up. Should you encounter that True God, do not rashly stir the snake by hitting the grass. Contact us, and we will act together," said the red-haired man.

At this, the black-robed man nodded, his voice raspy: "Okay."

...

Sky Federation.

With the Federation’s directive, all citizens began to worship Qi Yuan Heavenly Venerable.

Everything was moving forward methodically.

As for believing in Qi Yuan Heavenly Venerable, the people... naturally resisted.

After all, no one likes to have a god above them.

However, once they learned that Qi Yuan Heavenly Venerable was the one issuing the Divine Oracle blocking seductive disasters, and proven capable of bringing stability to the Sky Federation, more and more people chose to believe in him.

After all, gods are useful, why not believe in one.

At this time, in an underground meeting room.

Expert Liu, listening to the rest of the discussion, couldn’t help but frown.

"This so-called god may just be bluffing. Our weapons... are powerful enough to level a mountain. Couldn’t they... kill him too?" an old man spoke up.

Given the current level of technological advancement, the flesh and blood body could not withstand humanity’s advanced weaponry.

Another person said, "He possesses a special ability to teleport, making it difficult to pinpoint his location, and... he might have other powers as well, making the success rate of surrounding and killing him less than 10%."

Clearly, they were discussing the act of killing a god!

After all, whether believing in Qi Yuan Heavenly Venerable is good or bad, they did not know.

What if Qi Yuan Heavenly Venerable harbored malice?

"What, do you really want to test the depths of god, who will try, how to try, can we bear the consequences?" At this point, an irritable old man said.

Immediately, the others fell silent, not daring to speak further.

Indeed, the world isn’t full of experiments.

Who can bear the consequences of a failure?

The carnivores?

Not them.

Elsewhere, on a deserted street, a gust of wind blew a plastic bag across.

The old man, clothed in a Daoist robe, appeared lazy.

He looked at the young man ahead, his expression languid.

"Fellow Daoist, do you know that a great disaster is upon you?"

As the old man looked at Qi Yuan, Qi Yuan was also looking at him: "Oh? How so?"

"You may not know this is the Abandoned Land," the old man said lightly, as if expecting to see astonishment, shock, and panic in Qi Yuan’s eyes.

However, he saw none of it.

"Oh, I know," Qi Yuan shrugged, thinking it was nothing serious.

The old man was slightly taken aback, then understood.

This True God before him is probably a wild, Loose Cultivator, unaware of the horrors of the Abandoned Land.

"The Abandoned Land is considered a place of absolute peril, even legendary Tao Gods would suffer calamity, and eventually face ominous outcomes if they linger here.

If you continue to collect faith here, I fear... your fate will be tragic.

There is only one way to survive."

"Oh, how to survive?" Qi Yuan was curious.

"Join our Mercury Palace," said the old man, "Devote yourself to Mercury Palace for a hundred million years, and the calamities upon you will be cleared, granting you survival."

"I’ll pass," Qi Yuan refused.

Given this response, the old man was not surprised.

"As expected, if the calamity does not befall, even a god would not feel pain or regret. However... once enveloped by calamity, even Mercury Palace cannot save you.

You might think I am sensationalizing, but this is the truth."

As he spoke, a piece of information flowed out, received by Qi Yuan.

This information encompassed various ends of many True Gods who had erroneously entered this place.

"Do you believe it now?"

"You are lucky to have met me. If it was a cultivator from Heavenly King Mountain... chances are, he wouldn’t give you a chance to live but would have slain you right there. It is only us, Mercury Palace, who are compassionate enough to give every cultivator a chance," the old man said with slight arrogance.

Generally speaking, when faced with death and servitude for a hundred million years for survival, a True God would choose the latter.

After all, life is the most precious, the most important.

A hundred million years, in the blink of an eye.
