152: Chapter 152 Blood Jade Bodhi

[ You have followers (Fine Black Ant-men) upgraded to level 3 ]

[ You have followers (Shield-Armored Ant-Men) upgraded to level 3 ]

[ You have followers (Hidden-Armor Ant-Man) upgraded to level 3 ]

A series of notifications popped up on the smart assistant, and the Divine Kingdom was once again filled with radiant light.

Gu Han sat on the magnificent wind elemental throne, resting his chin on one hand, checking the upgrade notifications for the followers of various races.

He had just sent a short message to his father, Gu Yanxiao, and had to wait for him to attack the Snake-man Divine Kingdom together.

Gu Han checked the smart assistant and saw that the [blessing of the sacrificer] had been triggered for the fourth time. "Current probability of Breakthrough to the next Transcendental level: 27.73396753%." The progress was faster than expected.

The Transcendental situation this time was much like the last; the ones leading the Breakthrough were still the queens of each race. They occupied the most core resource allocations and relied on the "Swallowing Heaven Bloodline Method" to be the first to break through the level 3 threshold.

Once they broke through to level 3, all the Ant-men born thereafter would be level 3; only the older generation of Ant-men remained at level 2.

Gu Han hurriedly added a batch of level 3 Leviathan Ant eggs and sent them into the Demigod Kuanglan's Divine Kingdom.

He sent all the level 3 Ant eggs into the virtual coordinates to be matured.

Nowadays, the Ant-man Race was basically on the path of Body Refining Transcendental. The candidates for Cultivation Transcendental were pitifully few, only a handful.

When he flipped to the column for the Fine Black Ant-men, Gu Han stopped his movements.

Zhangsheng had actually broken through to level 3 as well, and she had done so by comprehending Cultivation Techniques.

This counted as good news.

But immediately after, Gu Han dug out a buried red warning notification from the massive amount of upgrade data from the previous days.

[ The follower you marked, "Zhangsheng", is about to reach the end of her Lifespan. ]

Gu Han frowned. That shouldn't be right.

Didn't he give her a reward to extend her Lifespan last time? Logically, she should be able to hold on for a long time.

Gu Han clicked open Zhangsheng's activity log.

Dense records popped up instantly.

Gu Han scanned down a few times and realized. This little one, Zhangsheng, had unknowingly reached nearly four hundred years of age.

In the Fine Black Ant-men race, where the original Lifespan was only a short ten years, Zhangsheng was definitely an existence at the level of an old monster.

The log recorded it in great detail.

After the first Breakthrough, Zhangsheng had relied on the Lifespan pills rewarded by Gu Han to hold on, but due to talent limitations, she had been unable to break through for a long time.

[ Divine Year xxx: Zhangsheng walked towards the altar in the core area, stayed in front of the steps for a day, and then turned and left. ]

[ Divine Year xxx: Zhangsheng climbed the altar again, prepared to sacrifice herself, but turned back halfway. ]

[ Divine Year xxx: Zhangsheng went to the altar for the third time, paused for a long time, and finally returned to the cave to continue comprehending Cultivation Techniques to seek a Breakthrough. ]

With her Lifespan nearing its end and the generations of her kin changing, this little one had walked up to the altar several times, wanting to end her own life in accordance with the traditions of the Fine Black Ant-men to trade for hope for the tribe.

But every time, she retreated. She was not reconciled; she wanted to live.

[ Divine Year xxx: The Divine Kingdom shook continuously. Zhangsheng ended her seclusion and went to investigate. She climbed over mountains and scaled high walls, saw the massive number of invaders, saw the battlefield littered with corpses, and the Ant-men compatriots who were defending to the death without retreating. She became determined to break through, hoping that one day she would also be able to resist the invaders. ]

[ Divine Year xxx: Huge changes in the Divine Kingdom. The Divine Lord introduced various Heaven And Earth Treasures. Zhangsheng fell into a Bottleneck, unable to break through, and her Lifespan was nearing its end. ]

The style of the log changed drastically afterward, and what left Gu Han both laughing and crying was the record in the second half of the log.

[ Divine Year xxx: To survive, Zhangsheng snuck into the No. 3 Spirit Field and stole and ate the A-grade divine plant Star Morning Grass. Her Lifespan was greatly increased. ]

[ Divine Year xxx: Zhangsheng snuck into the No. 1 Core Spirit Field and stole and ate the S-grade divine plant spirit root network, nearly exploding and dying. ]

[ Divine Year xxx: Zhangsheng snuck into the spirit field again and gnawed on a large amount of authentic divine plants. ]

...

She had snuck into the spirit field hundreds of times, eating every authentic divine plant she could eat.

Looking at the life log through the screen, Gu Han could truly feel that desire to survive.

The Fine Black Ant-men were extremely small in size, so those few bites didn't cause much harm to the massive divine plants. Gu Han didn't feel any anger; instead, he felt a bit heartbroken.

The previous reward for extending her Lifespan had already been pushed to its limit. Zhangsheng's Origin had long been completely drained by the medicinal effects, and taking any more medicine to increase Lifespan would be useless.

Her desperate Breakthrough to level 3 this time was also to complete the task of supervising and screening the small mushroom sacs.

After all, Zhangsheng was his first Transcendental Believer and had pioneered the Cultivation system in the Divine Kingdom. Back when he was in the Black Competition, it was precisely because of her appearance that the competition ended by mistake in that final critical moment.

Seeing her work so hard to live, Gu Han couldn't just stand by and watch.

As a God, if he couldn't respond to the strong wishes of his followers, he would be no different from those clay gods that were worshipped but did nothing. He had to save her.

Gu Han opened the smart assistant and quickly entered the search criteria: replenish Origin, increase Breakthrough Comprehension Ability, extend Lifespan.

A name that Gu Han found somewhat familiar came into view.

S-grade divine plant: Blood Jade Bodhi.

Effect: Repair Origin, replenish Qi and blood, enlighten Dao.

Gu Han continued to look down, his gaze lingering on two lines of small text.

"If a follower can consume a large amount of Blood Jade Bodhi, it can greatly feed back to the Divine Lord. There is also a very small probability for the follower to achieve the 'Blood Jade Dao Body'."

Gu Han raised his eyebrows.

Consuming a large amount could also feed back to the Divine Lord? This was a good thing; why hadn't he discovered this before?

Zhangsheng really was a lucky star.

Given the scarcity of such high-level divine plants, ordinary Divine Lords couldn't even find one, let alone let their followers eat them as meals. Not to mention gambling on that very small probability of the Blood Jade Dao Body.

The value of this thing was on the same level as the spirit root network, and it was also classified as S-grade because of its scarcity and inability to achieve maximum effect.

Gu Han suddenly remembered that when he was browsing the black market software's bounty tasks last time, he seemed to have glimpsed this name.

He immediately switched interfaces and opened the task bar of the black market software.

After flipping through a few pages, he found that the bounty task was still there.

[ Targeted cultivation of rare divine plants: Urgently seeking an alternative variety of S-grade 'Blood Jade Bodhi'. As long as the medicinal effect reaches 30% of the original version, willing to pay 100 billion to buy out the patent. ]

Gu Han stared at the numbers on the screen and sneered.

At the time, he thought this might be a probe from the Abyss Arena side, so he didn't even click on it.

Now, combined with the scarcity of the Blood Jade Bodhi, this price was indeed a bit low.

The alternative divine plants he was currently handing over to the black market software to sell didn't even have 10% of the medicinal effect of the original version. Even so, they were snatched up by major forces.

One hundred billion to buy out the patent for a Blood Jade Bodhi with 30% medicinal effect? It was simply wishful thinking.

Recalling his own experiences a while ago, he couldn't help but complain.

"In the past, when I sold high-potency original items on the Xianyu Marketplace, those people were all indifferent, complained it was expensive, and even called me a scammer, getting my account reported and banned."

"Now they come to the black market and spend 100 billion to beg for an alternative. Truly, the world is fickle."

But Gu Han did not rashly accept this task.

30% medicinal effect? This requirement was too high. Such good things naturally couldn't be spread out.

He closed the task details page. Although he wouldn't accept the task, he had to get his hands on this Blood Jade Bodhi.

Not only to save Zhangsheng, but the property of this thing being able to feed back to the Divine Lord was also very important to Gu Han.

Gu Han clicked on the avatar of the bounty publisher and sent a private message.

The readership has dropped to seventy thousand.

The pork I bought a month ago has been frozen for a month. When will I see hope after such a long time of no extra updates?

Look me in the eye, Fanqie!!!
