941: Chapter 942 The Golden Dragon Scale of Luck
Heavenly Lord Qingming's entire body stiffened, the eager joy on his face instantly freezing, and his overflowing pleas stuck in his throat, leaving him in a dilemma.
As the master of a heavenly palace, which faction in the Desolate Region wouldn't give him some face on ordinary days?
Today, in order to save his Junior Brother, he lowered his status and begged bitterly, but he was blocked speechless by such a breezy counter-question from Gu Changge.
Pavilion Master Danchenzi frowned slightly, quickly stood up to smooth things over, and persuaded in a gentle tone:
"Young Master Gu, Heavenly Venerate Qinghua is the pillar of Qingming Heavenly Palace. If he falls, countless Cultivators in the Northern Barrens will lose their protection. I hope Young Master can hold compassion in his heart and lend a helping hand."
"Whatever Young Master needs, our Tiandan Pavilion and Qingming Heavenly Palace will definitely do our utmost to satisfy it."
"Compassion?" Gu Changge held the teacup, his fingertips gently rubbing against the cold cup wall, and he lifted his eyes indifferently.
"Cultivating the Great Dao, everyone accepts their fate."
Heavenly Lord Qingming's face turned pale, and his hands gripped tightly:
"Young Master Gu, my Qingming Heavenly Palace is willing to pay a reward!"
"Innate Spiritual Root, celestial veins, Heavenly Venerate-grade divine weapons, complete ancient Cultivation Techniques."
"Whatever Young Master wants, I will offer it with both hands! As long as you are willing to deduce the Pill Formula!"
Xiao Bai stood behind Gu Changge, couldn't help sneering, and muttered softly:
"A bunch of crappy treasures, how could Master possibly look at them."
Hearing Xiao Bai's whisper, Heavenly Lord Qingming's heart sank. He was silent for a long time, and finally gritted his teeth. With a flip of his palm, he took out a quaint stone box from the deepest part of his storage space.
Heavenly Lord Qingming slowly opened the box lid. Inside quietly lay a palm-sized dark golden object with an irregular shape and rounded edges.
The entire object was dim and lusterless, without any spiritual power fluctuations, looking just like a piece of metal abandoned for many years.
Looking at that object, a trace of reluctance flashed in Heavenly Lord Qingming's eyes, but he still solemnly pushed the stone box in front of Gu Changge:
"Young Master Gu, I obtained this item in an ancient ruin in my early years, and it is the most core treasure of that Secret Realm."
"To this day, I still cannot explain clearly what it is or what its purpose is. But when wearing it on one's body, the Cultivation speed will significantly accelerate, the mind will be exceptionally clear, and there is almost no harassment from the Heart Demon."
"Today, taking it as a reward, I believe that this item will surely display its true value in Young Master Gu's hands!"
He paused and added: "In addition, my Qingming Heavenly Palace can also make a move for Young Master once."
Gu Changge's gaze fell upon that object, but his eyes moved slightly.
He did not reach out to take it, just looked at it for a moment, and then turned to look at Pavilion Master Danchenzi: "I can deduce it."
Pavilion Master Danchenzi was overjoyed in his heart and was about to thank him, but heard Gu Changge continue: "But I need medicinal materials, a large amount of medicinal materials."
He casually took out a Jade Slip, spiritual light flashed on his fingertips, and a list had been branded within it, which he casually threw in front of Pavilion Master Danchenzi:
"Inside are the medicinal materials I need. Whatever Tiandan Pavilion's treasury has, I will take directly; for what it doesn't have, you will help me find them."
"Find as much as you can, but supply them to me with priority."
Pavilion Master Danchenzi took the Jade Slip, probed his Divine Sense into it, and glanced at it. Even with his extensive knowledge, he couldn't help drawing a cold breath.
The medicinal material list in the Jade Slip densely listed over a thousand kinds, and each kind had a massive demand.
The weight of this list was almost equivalent to Tiandan Pavilion's inventory income over a thousand years.
Pavilion Master Danchenzi held the Jade Slip and was silent for a moment. Being able to obtain the nine-turn nirvana pill Pill Formula made it all worth it.
He gritted his teeth and nodded solemnly:
"Good! It shall be as Young Master says! Tiandan Pavilion will surely go all out to collect this batch of medicinal materials for Young Master!"
Gu Changge nodded slightly, said no more, reached out to close the stone box lid, and put the stone box into his own storage space.
This time he came to Tiandan Pavilion, he was originally aiming for the medicinal materials. Since he took out chips like the nine-turn nirvana pill, it would be unreasonable not to take the Opportunity to fleece them heavily.
Within the vision of Gu Changge's Eye of Illusory Breaking, the things hidden beneath that layer of vague patterns made even him feel a trace of surprise.
That was a golden dragon scale of Luck, and its scale contained the purest Origin of Luck.
Although this scale was locked by an extremely ancient Seal, causing its appearance to be dim and lusterless, once the Seal was lifted, it would emit monstrous golden light of Luck.
This item could gather the Luck of heaven and earth into oneself, allowing the holder to proceed smoothly step by step on the path of Cultivation and turn bad Luck into good.
More importantly, it could resonate with those who bore great Luck, nourishing each other and achieving one another.
Gu Changge thought of Wang Zhan at the first instance.
That kid bore the Luck of the Immortal Domain. If he could gain the blessing of this golden dragon scale of Luck, his cultivation of the Azure Heaven Body would surely yield twice the result with half the effort, and his future Cultivation could also catch up to the footsteps of Xiao Ruobai and the others.
For Wang Zhan, it was a colossal Opportunity.
Seeing Gu Changge accept it, Pavilion Master Danchenzi quickly said: "Young Master Gu, the Eighth Tablet is right on the square. May I ask Young Master Gu to move...?"
Before the words fell, Gu Changge gently put down the teacup and softly spoke:
"No need."
Three words, so indifferent without a trace of ripples.
Heavenly Lord Qingming and all the Elders were stunned.
Not going to the square? Then how to observe the tablet inscriptions? How to induce the Dao traces remaining in the tablet?
Without waiting for them to react, Gu Changge's eyes suddenly opened, and stars seemed to illusion and annihilate in the depths of his eyes.
He did not get up, but simply raised a finger and pointed into the void.
Far outside on the Heavenly Monument Square, the Eighth Tablet shook violently.
Under this finger, those ancient Alchemy patterns that had long dried up on the tablet body were like withered wood meeting spring, lighting up one by one, turning into countless golden rune long rivers, roaring against the Void Realm, and all plunging into Gu Changge's fingertips.
The whole process was no more than a breath.
Gu Changge withdrew his finger, casually pulled over a blank Jade Slip, and purple-gold Alchemy fire circulated at his fingertips. Within a few breaths, rows of extremely profound Pill Formula inscriptions had been branded within it.
He casually threw the Jade Slip onto Pavilion Master Danchenzi's desk, with an indifferent tone:
"Take it. Nine-turn Nirvana, bringing the dead back to life, do not waste it."
The whole hall fell into dead silence.
That was a supreme Pill Formula that required Heavenly Venerate-grade experts to observe for several years or even exhaust their Lifespan to deduce.
In his hands, however, it seemed like just a medical prescription casually written down.
Pavilion Master Danchenzi trembling held up that Jade Slip with both hands, probed his Divine Sense into it, and took just one glance before his whole person was struck by lightning, freezing in place.
Within the Jade Slip, the nine-turn nirvana pill Pill Formula was complete and flawless. Every step, the dosage of every medicinal material, and the transformation of every bit of heat were all written clearly.
Those doubts that had plagued him for tens of millions of years suddenly became clear at this moment, as if parting the clouds to see the sun.
"This... this..." Pavilion Master Danchenzi's voice was trembling, his lips quivered for a long time, but he couldn't say a complete sentence.
Although he had been extremely respectful to Gu Changge before, there was still a trace of doubt in his heart. This young man was so young, perhaps completing the first tablet was a coincidence?
Perhaps he had seen this Pill Formula elsewhere before?
After all, Tiandan Pavilion had studied it for three million years without being able to crack it, and a young man casually completed it, which was truly a bit unimaginable.
But at this moment, when he held this Jade Slip in his hand and saw those exquisite and peerless improvements, the last trace of doubt in his heart completely vanished into thin air.
Pavilion Master Danchenzi took a deep breath, and solemnly bowed to Gu Changge in a salute:
"Young Master Gu's Alchemy path reaches the divine, this humble one is utterly convinced."
Gu Changge held the teacup, his expression unchanged, as if he hadn't taken this matter to heart at all.
Heavenly Lord Qingming said anxiously from the side: "Pavilion Master Danchen, since the Pill Formula is complete, you can just start the furnace and perform Alchemy!"
Hearing this, Pavilion Master Danchenzi's face instead showed a trace of a bitter smile, and he shook his head:
"To tell you the truth, although this Pill Formula is already complete, I... cannot refine it."
