Swallowing the Giant Python Golden Core Whole
"Master, you're back?"
Lian was sparring with Xia Ningxue when she saw Lu Changsheng return and excitedly went to greet him.
Did you get into any trouble today?
"Your disciple won't cause trouble often."
"These three Medicinal Pills are for you to use."
Lu Changsheng gave Lian three small Jade Bottles, which contained the Giant Python Golden Core, the Blood Lotus Pill, and the Enlightenment Pill.
Giant Python Golden Core, Fifth-Grade Medicinal Pills, enhances physical strength.
Blood Lotus Pill, Fifth-Grade Medicinal Pills, enhances Qi and Blood.
Lesser Enlightenment Pill, Fifth-Grade Medicinal Pills, increases the probability of sudden enlightenment and is suitable for use by those in the Nascent Soul Realm.
Thank you, Master.
Lian took the three Medicinal Pills, opened one of the Jade Bottles, and a scorching aura and a powerful Demon Power emanated from it, instantly filling the entire palace.
"Such amazing medicinal effects, it tastes delicious."
Lian wiped away her drool. This Giant Python Golden Core was of the Fire Attribute, which perfectly matched her Fire Spirit Root.
This is Medicinal Pills made from the golden core of Red-Scaled Giant Python has been in human form for eight hundred years. It is a great tonic for the physically strong Wilderness Tribe.
"Master, can I eat it directly?"
"Um."
Lu Changsheng didn't think there was anything wrong with it.
If an ordinary cultivator were to swallow the Giant Python Golden Core directly, they would likely explode and die, but Lian possesses the Martial King Divine Physique, making it entirely different.
With the domineering power of the Martial King Divine Physique, even if he directly swallowed the Giant Python Golden Core, the Demon Power of the Giant Python Golden Core would not burst his body; instead, it would be absorbed by the Martial King Divine Physique.
After swallowing the Giant Python Golden Core, Lian sat in meditation, refining the immense Demon Power of the Giant Python Golden Core's golden pill and tempering her body.
Within the lotus's body, a wisp of crimson True Qi appeared, extremely hot.
Xia Ningxue was secretly surprised.
This was the first time she had ever seen Nascent Soul Realm cultivator swallow Giant Python Golden Core in one gulp.
The normal procedure is to slowly absorb the Demon Power of the Giant Python Golden Core's golden core from outside, and then introduce the Demon Power into the body in batches for refinement, rather than directly taking it orally. This usually takes several days.
It can only be said that extraordinary people do extraordinary things.
[Ding! You have bestowed upon your Disciple "Lotus" Fifth-Grade Medicinal Pills, "Giant Python Golden Core," and have received a ten- Ten-Thousandfold Return Reward mentoring: Eighth-Grade Medicinal Pills, "Red Flood Dragon Golden Core."]
[Ding! You have rewarded your Disciple "Lotus" with Fifth-Grade Medicinal Pills, "Blood Lotus Pill," and received Apprentice-Teaching Five-Hundredfold Return Reward: Seventh-Grade Medicinal Pills, "Fire Lotus Divine Pill."]
[Ding! You have rewarded your Disciple "Lotus" with Fifth-Grade Medicinal Pills "Lesser Enlightenment Pill," and received Apprentice-Teaching Thousandfold Return Reward: Seventh-Grade Medicinal Pills "Enlightenment Pill."]
Lu Changsheng used up his three opportunities to bestow rewards today.
Another Eighth-Grade Medicinal Pills!
The system consecutively produced two Seventh-Grade Medicinal Pills and one Eighth-Grade Medicinal Pills, Lu Changsheng was overjoyed.
Today might be an auspicious day, which is why I'm so lucky.
It will take some time for Lian to refine the Demon Power of the Giant Python Golden Core's golden core, and Lu Changsheng and Xia Ningxue will Guardian.
"Fairy Xia's cultivation has improved significantly recently. Could it be that Grand Supreme Elders Transmission Empowerment?"
During his free time, Lu Changsheng chatted with Xia Ningxue.
"Um."
Xia Ningxue acknowledged it, but didn't say much, after all, this was an internal matter of the Ask Immortal Pavilion.
As expected, Xia Ningxue was exceptionally talented, and with the Transmission Empowerment the Grand Supreme Elders of the Ask Immortal Pavilion, her cultivation progressed rapidly.
The Grand Supreme Elders of the Immortal Ask Immortal Pavilion sacrificed his own cultivation to forcibly cultivate a Peerless Genius for the Ask Immortal Pavilion, which was completely opposite to Lu Changsheng's Transmission Empowerment and giving him rewards.
The Grand Supreme Elders, who sacrificed his own cultivation to benefit his disciples, could be considered half a Saint even though he couldn't survive the Heavenly Tribulation.
The Demon Power of the Giant Python Golden Core's golden core alarmed the Second Imperial Princess and the palace Imperial Guards.
"Your disciple swallowed the Giant Python Golden Core whole? Absolutely not! He'll explode and die!"
The Second Imperial Princess arrived and was astonished to find that Lu Changsheng had given his disciple the Giant Python Golden Core.
That's not how you use the Giant Python Golden Core...
However, apart from his face turning red, Lu Changsheng's disciple showed no other abnormalities and did not explode, which reassured the Second Imperial Princess and a group of Imperial Guards.
Xia Ningxue explained from the side, "Elder Lu's disciple has a special physique and is not afraid of the Giant Python's Demon Power, so there's no need to worry."
"I see."
The Second Imperial Princess was relieved, but even so, she still found it hard to believe that Nascent Soul Realm cultivator could swallow Giant Python Golden Core and remain unharmed.
"Nascent Soul Realm Second Layer."
Half a day later, Lian opened her eyes, her aura completely renewed. Her Martial King Divine Physique had completely absorbed the Demon Power of the Giant Python Golden Core's golden core and transformed it into True Qi, making Martial King Divine Physique even stronger. As for Lian, due to digesting the Giant Python Golden Core's immense Demon Power, her cultivation level also broke through to the Nascent Soul Realm Second Layer.
"They broke through directly?"
The Second Imperial Princess was even more surprised.
These days, she has witnessed far more strange things than she had ever seen before combined.
"Master, is Lian Li powerful?"
"Very good."
Lu Changsheng was pleased that his Eldest Disciple had broken through to the First Layer of the Nascent Soul Realm and his Second Disciple had broken through to the Nascent Soul Realm Second Layer. Sooner or later, they would be able to step into the Dao Palace Realm, at which point Lu Changsheng would be able to reward them with even higher-level treasures.
"I have already ordered a feast to be prepared. I hope that Daoist Lu, the Holy Maiden, and all fellow Daoists will not find it inappropriate."
The Second Imperial Princess was even more respectful. Lu Changsheng, Lu Qinglian, and Xia Ningxue were all chosen ones of heaven with limitless potential. Before they reached an unattainable level, it was possible to forge a celestial bond with them.
The Second Imperial Princess hosted a banquet, which was attended by many princes, nobles, generals, and Great Confucian of the Xia Kingdom.
With the chosen ones from the two major sects, Mount Shu and Ask Immortal Pavilion, present, even the princes and nobles of these secular dynasties tried to curry favor with them.
"There's no need for excessive flattery; Daoist Lu doesn't like that."
The Second Imperial Princess sent a telepathic message to everyone to prevent the nobles from being too attentive and offending cultivators like Lu Changsheng and Xia Ningxue.
Everything in excess is as bad as deficiency.
After the banquet, in the dead of night, Lu Changsheng took out the Eighth-Grade Medicinal Pills "Red Flood Dragon Golden Core" returned by the system in his room.
Like the Red Emperor Dragonforce Pill, the Red Flood Dragon Golden Core Elixir was contained in a Purple-Gold Eight Trigrams Gourd to prevent its medicinal power from leaking out.
[Red Flood Dragon Golden Core: Eighth-Grade Medicinal Pills, a top-grade Medicinal Pills refined from the golden elixir of an eight-thousand-year-old Red Flood Dragon. It contains the immense Demon Power of the Red Flood Dragon and can enhance physical strength and improve cultivation.]
An eight-thousand-year-old dragon?
Lu Changsheng had read in the Mount Shu classics that in this world, a jiao (a type of dragon) could transform into a dragon after ten thousand years.
The eight-thousand-year-old jiao is close to transforming into a dragon.
Its golden core contains an immense amount of Demon Power.
"This is the key to my future breakthrough to the Dao Palace Realm and entry into the Void Refinement Realm."
Lu Changsheng understood that the Dao Palace Realm Ninth Layer to the Void Refinement Realm was a bottleneck.
Lu Changsheng Dual Cultivation of Martial and Dao, and possesses Innate Dao Body. He will require an exceptionally large amount of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi, and the Eighth-Grade Medicinal Pills "Red Flood Dragon Golden Core" can just fill this huge gap.
It is easy to imagine how precious Eighth-Grade Medicinal Pills is.
Lu Changsheng opened the Purple-Gold Eight Trigrams Gourd, wanting to see the true appearance of the Red Flood Dragon Golden Core.
Suddenly, an extremely terrifying Demon Power surged out, and in an instant, all the cultivators in the Imperial City were alarmed!
Not good.
Lu Changsheng's expression changed slightly. The Demon Power of the eight-thousand-year-old Red Flood Dragon Golden Core was beyond imagination. It might make the cultivators in the Imperial City think that a Peerless Great Demon was attacking the Imperial City.
This is a huge misunderstanding.
