At the foot of the Heavenly Profound Sect Mountain, in a private room on the top floor of a luxurious restaurant in Heavenly Sea City.
Cao Xuan sat upright at the table and drank by himself. He enjoyed the unique Drunken Immortal Brew here with a calm expression.
“Young Master, this Han Zhao really doesn’t know how to appreciate favors!”
The door of the private room was pushed open and Cao Zhengchun walked in angrily.
“Eunuch Cao, why are you angry?” Cao Xuan said calmly.
“The Three Apertures Golden Pill is a rare treasure. This person didn’t even want it when it was delivered to his door. We waited for three days in vain! I heard from the inner sect disciples of the Heavenly Profound Sect that this person is still like usual. He sunbathes outside Liang Yan’s cave abode every day and sleeps until sunset. In my opinion, he’s probably given up on himself.”
When Cao Zhengchun was rejected three days ago, he suggested that Cao Xuan return the way he came. However, Cao Xuan said that he would wait a little longer, so they stayed in Heavenly Sea City.
In the past three days, Cao Xuan had instructed him to go to the Heavenly Profound Sect to find inner sect disciples to inquire about Han Zhao’s movements. The outcome was as he had expected.
He spoke as if he had high aspirations, but in the end, he simply lay down and died.
“Oh?” Cao Xuan stopped drinking and suddenly felt that Han Zhao was really not simple.
He stayed for a few more days to give Han Zhao a chance to regret.
Apart from the instructions of the ancestor, Cao Xuan wanted to see if there were really people in this world who would rather die than submit.
A peerless genius suddenly lost his cultivation and life force. He did not have long to live. Could he really accept his fate?
Or did he have other plans? However, other than the Three Apertures Golden Pill, this kind of injury was almost impossible to heal. Even if there were other methods, it would definitely be more harsh.
“Life is precious. Freedom is priceless. If such a person can survive, it might be better than dying.”
Cao Xuan sighed in his heart. He raised his wine gla.s.s and drank it in one gulp.
As for Cao Zhengchun’s mockery of Han Zhao, he turned a deaf ear.
Four days later.
Cao Xuan and Cao Zhengchun left Heavenly Sea City and returned to Great Liang.
Han Zhao lay on the rattan chair and blocked the glaring sunlight with one hand. He narrowed his eyes between his fingers and looked up at the clear sky. His other hand grabbed at the air as if he wanted to hold the sun in his hand. “It’s just some wind and frost on the longevity path. I’ll decide my own path…”
On the seventh day of the Reincarnation Stage, he had already recovered seven years of cultivation.
However, perhaps because his cultivation had not completely recovered, his hair was still white and he looked like he had lost his life. Although the meridians in his body had recovered a little, the extent of recovery was basically negligible to outsiders.
Even if Cao Xuan checked his physical condition again, he would not be able to find anything amiss.
“I’ve never felt so comfortable in the sun in so many years.” Han Zhao felt completely relaxed.
This moment was completely his. He did not have to think or do anything.
Just like that, Han Zhao lay down until the sun set before slowly getting up.
“l have to find some books to read tomorrow to pa.s.s the time.”
Han Zhao stretched hard. In the simulation, he had stayed in the outer sea for countless years, but he had never been there in reality.
Even if there were some memories, they were all about cultivation and martial arts. There were no living memories.
Therefore, he could use this time to find some books about the outer seas in the Heavenly Profound Sect. These things should not be a secret. It was definitely not a problem to borrow them.
“If it’s still in this state in a few days, I can wait until the 24th day before leaving. ”
When Han Zhao returned to his room in the cave abode, he suddenly changed his mind.
This way, when he arrived in the outer seas, his cultivation would completely recover the next day. This was safer.
“l miss my days in Black-rock City.”
Han Zhao sighed inwardly. On this trip to the outer seas, he had to develop steadily like he did in Black-rock City.
He could use Song Que, Ding Xiu, and Xiong Ba as much as he wanted in the outer seas.
Han Zhao no longer wanted to be famous.
After knowing that Han Zhao was seriously injured, Su Tianqi, who was traveling outside, rushed back to the Heavenly Profound Sect without stopping. After checking Han Zhao’s injuries, he found Liang Yan. “Great Elder, is there really no way to treat Brother Han’s injuries?”
Su Tianqi’s heart was a little heavy.
His previous experience made him long treat Han Zhao as a friend. If not for Han Zhao’s help in the trial, he would not have obtained many benefits from the Deva Cave Abode. He suddenly found it difficult to accept that Han Zhao had been attacked and crippled.
“The hope is slim.” Liang Yan sighed.
“Then can the Cao family’s Three Apertures Golden Pill be exchanged with other conditions? Or can we think of a way to refine another one?” Su Tianqi hurriedly said.
When Liang Yan heard this, he smiled helplessly, “Not to mention that the spiritual herbs used to refine the Three Apertures Golden Pill are almost extinct, just a super m grade alchemist is even rarer than the pill itself.”
“The Cao Family’s Three Apertures Golden Pill should have been obtained from the Great Qin Empire’s treasure vault a thousand years ago. There is probably only one in the East Victory Continent.”
“The medicinal effect is even effective on Martial G.o.ds at the Divine Power Realm. What do you want to exchange for it? The Rank 3 divine weapon of your Su family? Or is it the Heavenly Profound Sect’s signature Numinous Treasure?”
“…” Su Tianqi was silent. Although the Su family was one of the three aristocratic families in Cloud Prefecture, they only had one Rank 3 divine weapon and it was still in the hands of the ancestor.
As for the Heavenly Saint Grotto-Heaven’s signature Numinous Treasure, it was the array foundation of the mountain-protecting array formation. It was the key to communicating with the Heavenly Saint Grotto-Heaven. Handing it over was equivalent to seizing the foundation of the Heavenly Saint Sect.
“Unless Han Zhao agrees to the Cao family’s conditions, there’s no need to think about the Three Apertures Golden Pill,” Liang Yan said in a low voice. In fact, when he first saw the Three Apertures Golden Pill, he was also shocked. He didn’t expect Cao Mengxuan to value Han Zhao so much..
