Vol.2 – Chapter 56 – I’m afraid I can’t do it well


Feeling a bit embarrassed, Chu Liang chuckled, “This is the main ingredient for the Golden Elixir of the Divine Lesser Yang, and I plan to go find it.”

Lin Bei naturally knew about it.

Among the many brothers of Jade Sword Peak, the Golden Elixir of the Divine Lesser Yang was the one that the eldest brother, Xu Ziyang, had formed.

So he knew early on what this precious medicine was used for, which was why he had left the information at the Elixir Hall.

Because of this, when Chu Liang mentioned the name of this precious medicine, his heart skipped a beat, thinking of the possibility.

“Have you reached the peak of the Divine Realm?” He asked with a trembling voice.

“I accidentally broke through.” Chu Liang’s smile was somewhat shy, “Actually, I didn’t practice much…”

This was indeed the truth.

“Did you also consume the Fire Spirit Mushroom?” Lin Bei asked incredulously.

“No…” Chu Liang tried to explain, “But there might have been some fortuitous encounters, so my progress has been quite fast recently.”

Lin Bei scratched his head.

Normally, the time it takes to go from the late stage of the Divine Realm to the peak is definitely much longer than from the middle stage to the late stage.

But why did it seem like it was the complete opposite for Chu Liang?

He reached the late stage faster than the middle stage, and the peak faster than the late stage… How was this man getting faster and faster?

If he knew that Chu Liang had reached the peak of the Divine Realm several days ago, he might be even more disillusioned. After all, compared to before, his own talent hadn’t grown, but the way the big-headed doll worked was constantly improving.

The harder it worked, the better he would naturally do.

“You won’t have a chance to reach the peak of the Divine Realm before me, but if you work hard, you might be able to form the elixir before me.” Chu Liang comforted.

Lin Bei waved his hand, suddenly speaking with an incredibly calm tone: “It’s okay, you don’t have to give me a chance.”

He sighed lightly.

He had come to terms with it.

It was all because the first time he met Chu Liang, they were both at the early stage of the Divine Realm, and he was even a little ahead.

So he had an illusion that Chu Liang’s talent was close to his own.

But during this period, when he was in the early stage, Chu Liang was in the middle stage, when he was in the middle stage, Chu Liang was in the late stage, when he was in the late stage, Chu Liang was at the peak…

Even though he had the aid of heavenly treasures during this period, he was still one step behind. This could only mean that the two of them were not on the same level.

Would he compare himself with the eldest brother? Would he compare himself with Sister Jiang?

Neither.

So why should he compare himself with Chu Liang?

“The stronger my brother is, the happier I should be. You strive to succeed in forming the elixir in one go, and become a master of the Golden Elixir Realm as soon as possible.” The smile on Lin Bei’s face slowly spread again.

“If someone else asked me for the information about the Swordleaf Mysteria, I would at most point out the direction. But now that you need it, I might as well take you there myself!” He pondered, “After all, it’s somewhat dangerous there, and it’s better to have two people.”

“Is it dangerous…”

Chu Liang stroked his chin, wondering whether he should ask his master to help him again with this Golden Elixir ingredient.

After all, the help she had given him during his growth wasn’t much, so it wouldn’t be too much to ask her to be a helper. Especially these days when he had been taking his master on expeditions, it was quite handy to use her.

But on second thought, he decided against it. The process of finding the medicine was also a process of experience. If he relied on his master for everything, even if he formed the elixir, he would still be a useless Golden Elixir.

However…

He cast his gaze out of the window at the big head who was digging in the dirt.

Taking this guy along might be a good idea.

Seriously speaking, it was much stronger than him, and it would definitely be a guarantee in times of danger.

As he was thinking about this, suddenly, there was a tremor in his arms… Chu Liang was taken aback.

A summoning order?

【Eastern Guide】: “Are you three still well?”

Since the matter had been discussed, Chu Liang sent Lin Bei away, and the time to set off for the medicine would be discussed later. Then he immediately opened the summoning order.

After the Earth Fiend Envoy died, there were only three of them left in this soul realm. When did another member join?

Another Guide Envoy?!

The wisp of soul fire under the command of the Purple Gold Marquis was in his own hands. Now it was obvious that he had made a move and reorganized this soul realm.

And pulled this Eastern Guide in.

【Fifty-Nine】: “Is it the Guide Envoy? Is it really the Guide Envoy? An alive Guide Envoy? My God, there’s a Guide Envoy here, are we going to be promoted? Am I going to become an Earth Fiend Envoy?”

【Sixty】: “Well.”

Chu Liang habitually waited for a while, seeing that Monk Pǔ Shàn and Luo Yao had both replied, then he spoke.

First, let this newcomer feel that there was not a single normal person in this soul realm. Then when he spoke, his impression of him might be slightly better.

【Fifty-Eight】: “Thank you for your concern, Guide Envoy. I am still well.”

Then the Eastern Guide immediately replied.

【Eastern Guide】: “The South and Southwest routes have almost been completely wiped out, leaving only you three. The Marquis is already aware of this and is extremely saddened.”

【Eastern Guide】: “As a reward for your escape from death this time, the Marquis has decided to reward each of you with a heavenly treasure. When you reach the peak of the Golden Elixir Realm, you can immediately use this treasure to break through to the Five Elements Realm.”

【Eastern Guide】: “Report the nearest Glutton Pavilion, and I will arrange to send it to you immediately.”

“Huh?” Seeing this message, the three little ones in front of the summoning order were all stunned.

Was there such a good thing?

The mission was messed up, the teammates were all dead, and there was no punishment for the remaining them, but instead there was a reward? This kind of behavior was a bit too warm-hearted in the cold-hearted Demon Sect.

If it were a real disciple of the Underworld Sect, seeing these three sentences would be enough to warm them for a whole day.

Unfortunately, they ran into a few undercover agents.

They immediately reported the address of the nearest Glutton Pavilion without hesitation, and then began to thank them.

【Fifty-Nine】: “The Marquis’s great kindness is simply indescribable! My admiration for the Marquis is like the endless river…”

【Sixty】: “Thank you, Marquis.”

【Fifty-Eight】: “Thank you, Marquis.”

Pausing for a moment, the Eastern Guide finally responded.

【Eastern Guide】: “No need for excessive thanks, this is a reward from the Marquis. As long as you remain loyal to the Marquis, he will certainly not forget to reward you!”

【Eastern Guide】: “Serving the Marquis, even those who fail can receive so much, how much can those who succeed receive? You can imagine!”

【Fifty-Nine】: “I am willing to go through fire and water for the Marquis, sparing no effort!”

Something’s not right!

Watching the way the Eastern Guide was speaking, Chu Liang suddenly had a moment of enlightenment. Something was definitely off.

Sure enough, the Eastern Guide revealed his true intentions when he ran out of tricks.

Chu Liang couldn’t help but sneer.

【Eastern Guide】: “That’s great, there is a difficult task now, and we need you to complete it for the Marquis. Are you willing?”

【Fifty-Eight】: “What is the task?”

【Eastern Guide】: “The Marquis wants to send you into the Palace of Bones as insiders!”

【Sixty】: “The Palace of Bones?”

【Eastern Guide】: “Yes, the Four Halls of the Underworld have been steadily eroding the Marquis’s forces during this period. The Marquis wants you to join them directly, serving as insiders when the Marquis returns to counterattack in the future.”

【Fifty-Nine】: “To be undercover? This is too thrilling, can we handle it with our cultivation?”

【Fifty-Eight】: “Yes, I’m worried I won’t do well…”

【Eastern Guide】: “Don’t worry, the Marquis believes in you, you can definitely complete this task.”

【Eastern Guide】: “For now, be patient and lie low, waiting for the right opportunity. I will notify you separately when it’s time to act.”

【Sixty】: “Understood!”

Good morning (Top Truth)

Yesterday, people were panic buying groceries. I’ve been getting up at six for three days straight to get nucleic acid tests… I might as well post the update first, then sleep until noon.
