Terran Guardian - Chapter 3373

Chapter 3354 Sword Void
The immortal elixir possesses spirits!
This undoubtedly adds a significant risk to this void.
No one knows
how many Fortune Elixirs exist within.
Moreover,
for these Fortune Elixirs to have survived from ancient times to this day, their quality must be high.
So far,
Shen Changqing has suppressed three of them.
In their prime, these were all eighth-grade immortal elixirs. Although their quality has declined over time, they are still considered top-tier seventh-grade elixirs.
Meanwhile,
Shen Changqing also wanted to suppress a few more.
After all, these Fortune Elixirs have been here for countless years and must be intimately familiar with the Changsheng Palace.
With these Fortune Elixirs as a guide, exploring the opportunities within the palace would be much easier.
One day,
from the void,
a terrifying sword energy pierced through the void, instantly reaching Shen Changqing’s face.
The latter brought down his finger, shattering the sword energy. Then, with a single step, he shattered the void, revealing the white-robed monk who had been hiding behind it.
Upon seeing Shen Changqing approach, his face suddenly changed to horror.
In that instant,
the white-robed monk disappeared into the void.
But the next moment,
the void collapsed and annihilated. A terrifying pressure enveloped the entire space, causing the white-robed monk’s movements to abruptly pause.
Immediately,
Shen Changqing appeared before him.
“I’ll give you my life…”
“I want to live, senior, spare me!!!”
Without waiting for Shen Changqing to speak, the white-robed monk frantically begged for mercy.
His fear of death was a stark contrast to his earlier appearance as a white-robed swordsman.
The corners of Shen Changqing’s mouth twitched slightly, and then he looked at the other party and asked, “Next, answer whatever I ask you. If you hide anything, I will wipe out your spiritual wisdom.
You should also know that there are many elixirs of good fortune like you in this void. Even without you, I can still subdue other elixirs of good fortune!”
“Don’t worry, senior, I will tell you everything I know!”
The white-robed cultivator said hurriedly, fearing that if he spoke a word slowly, he would be killed on the spot.
Shen Changqing asked, “Do you have a name?”
“My name is Jianxu!”
“What elixir did you use to obtain this good fortune?”
“My original name is Tongming Jiandan, an eighth-level third-grade elixir. The effect of taking this elixir should make the cultivator’s sword heart clear and better comprehend the way of practicing sword!”
The white-robed cultivator, also known as Jianxu, answered respectfully, and then hurriedly added without waiting for Shen Changqing to speak.
“I’ve spent countless years in this void, and the medicinal power within me has dissipated. I’ve long since lost the effects of an eighth-grade
, third-tier immortal elixir. In terms of rank, I’m at best a seventh-grade , supreme-tier immortal elixir.
For a being like you, I’m naturally of little use. Besides, having lived here for countless years, I’m extremely familiar with this void. Senior, any questions you have, I’m happy to answer!”
Jian Xu spoke all in one breath, without a single breath.
Clearly,
to save his life, he dared not conceal anything.
“Pure Sword Pill!”
Shen Changqing was somewhat unfamiliar with this elixir.
However,
that was understandable. There were
countless elixirs in the world,
and how could he possibly know all of them?
Moreover,
an eighth-tier immortal elixir
was originally beyond the reach of a cultivator at his level.
But from Jian Xu’s words, Shen Changqing understood its significance.
“Sword Heart Clear!”
It allowed a cultivator to comprehend the Dao of the sword.
It was clear that reaching the realm of immortality required not only the accumulation of immortal power but also the mastery of the Great Dao.
“Let me ask you, how much do you know about Venerable Danxin?”
“I don’t quite remember!”
Jianxu said.
But when he noticed Shen Changqing’s slightly hostile look, Jianxu hurriedly explained.
“Master… Venerable Danxin disappeared many years ago. It’s normal for him to forget many things after so many years.
However, from what I remember, he was incredibly powerful, and his alchemy skills reached an unfathomable level.
All the Fortune Pills in this space were created by him!”
“Do you know how many Fortune Pills exist here?”
Shen Changqing changed the subject again.
Jianxu paused for a moment before answering.
“There used to be numerous Fortune Pills here, tens of thousands in number. But over the years, some have been eroded by time, or due to various other reasons, and have gradually disappeared.
As of now, there are probably only a few hundred Fortune Pills left in this dimension!”
“What’s the strength of the strongest Fortune Pill?”
“The strongest is an eighth-grade, seventh-grade Transparent Sword Pill. At its peak, that person’s strength could even rival a Semi-Saint.
However, after so many years, his strength has declined significantly, and he’s probably no longer at the Semi-Saint level.”
Jianxu paused, then added,
“With your strength, I believe you wouldn’t be afraid of an eighth-grade, seventh-grade Transparent Sword Pill!” Shen Changqing then asked a number of questions. Jianxu was able to answer most of them . After all, he had been in this dimension for countless years, and he was no joke.
Furthermore , from his words, Shen Changqing understood the main reason for the sharp decline in the number of Fortune Pills: devouring! The numerous Fortune Pills devour each other.
The fundamental reason is that over time, the power of the Fortune Elixir itself will be lost. To maintain this power, it must devour the power of other Fortune Elixirs, thus slowing its own decline. It
can be said
that any Fortune Elixir that survives is a powerful individual who has emerged from the vast number of Fortune Elixirs.
Thinking of this,
Shen Changqing looked at the cowering Jian Xu before him. It was hard to imagine that the other party, so fearful of death, could have endured to the end.
But on second thought,
Shen Changqing felt relieved.
Fear of death
often indicates a strong desire to survive!
In such circumstances, whether it is a cultivator or other beings, they can unleash unimaginable power.
Perhaps
this is why Jian Xu has survived until now.
At this time.
Jian Xu licked his face, his face full of flattery and fawning. “Senior, if you can suppress the other Fortune Pills, please give them all to me to devour.
After all, if my strength can be improved, I can better serve you!”
“Can you only devour the Fortune Pill, or can you also devour other ordinary pills?”
“I can devour them all. The higher the grade, the better the effect. If I can have a large supply of pills, it won’t be a big deal for me to recover to the level of Grade 8, Grade 3!”
Jian Xu said with a flattering smile.
Seeing this,
Shen Changqing snapped his fingers, and a red pill appeared.
“In consideration of your sincere answer, this pill is a reward for you!”
“Thank you, senior!”
Jian Xu’s eyes lit up, and he immediately swallowed the pill in one gulp.
As the pill entered his stomach, Shen Changqing could clearly feel that his aura had become much stronger.
If…
If Jianxu’s aura before was only equivalent to that of a mid-level Immortal Emperor, then after swallowing this Fortune Pill, he would almost be able to recover to the level of a late-level Immortal Emperor.
However, the power of a Fortune Pill is often much lower than its grade.
“It’s been a long time since I’ve tasted another elixir. These days, there are fewer and fewer Fortune Pills in the void. Those that survive are extremely powerful, and devouring them isn’t easy!”
Jianxu smacked his lips, as if savoring the taste of the pill, a look of nostalgia on his face.
How long has it been?
He had forgotten
how long it had been since he’d consumed other elixirs to replenish his strength.
After all, as Jianxu had said, the number of Fortune Pills in the void was drastically decreasing, and finding other Fortune Pills in the vast void was inherently difficult.
Furthermore,
even a Fortune Pill that had survived countless years of battle was difficult to deal with.
Because of this,
Jianxu could only feel his own strength gradually decline.
If Shen Changqing hadn’t appeared, he might have vanished completely one day, or become the nutrient for another Creation Pill.
Looking at Jianxu before him, Shen Changqing suddenly had an idea and told him to relax his mind.
Jianxu’s face froze slightly upon hearing this, but he didn’t dare ask further questions and could only honestly relax his mind.
Then,
Shen Changqing cast the Heavenly Soul Curse, directly planting a restriction within Jianxu’s sea of consciousness.
It’s worth noting that
during his retreat,
Shen Changqing had already successfully upgraded the Heavenly Soul Curse to the peak level of the Immortal Emperor.
For him now, the high-grade immortal stones required to upgrade the Immortal Emperor secret technique were insignificant.
However,
the Heavenly Soul Curse’s power was significant.
Given this situation, Shen Changqing naturally wanted to raise the rank of this secret technique. The high-
grade immortal stones required to upgrade it to the Semi-Saint level were too numerous.
Otherwise,
Shen Changqing wanted to upgrade the Heavenly Soul Curse directly to the Semi-Saint level.
He believed it.
If the Heavenly Soul Curse could be elevated to the Semi-Saint level, it would surely undergo another major transformation.
Furthermore,
Shen Changqing had also elevated powers like the Merciful Creation Elixir from the Upper-grade Immortal Emperor to the Supreme-grade Immortal Emperor.
As long as he had sufficient immortal stones, Shen Changqing wouldn’t hesitate to enhance any useful magical power to the maximum limit of its current level.
Even if this improvement was extremely limited, as long as it could have some effect, Shen Changqing considered it sufficient.
When the Heavenly Soul Curse was planted,
Shen Changqing successfully established a connection with Jianxu.
At this point, with a single thought, he could instantly obliterate Jianxu’s intelligence and utterly slay him.
Originally, Shen Changqing had only intended to test the Heavenly Soul Curse’s effectiveness against such a Creation Elixir. Now that it had succeeded, it was undoubtedly a good thing.
He looked at Jianxu and said calmly, “I have already placed a restriction on your sea of consciousness. If you have any thoughts of betrayal, I can wipe you out with just a thought.”
Jianxu’s face turned pale, and the few thoughts he had in his mind were completely wiped out. (End of this chapter)
