65: Chapter 65 World Level, Feed the Pill!
"Immortality???"
Chu Xiao's face was filled with astonishment. He also developed a keen interest in his Family's history; he hadn't expected that his Chu Family was actually quite impressive!
To think that they had imprisoned and suppressed an existence that possessed the Immortality Technique?
This, what the hell, is simply too Heaven-Defying!
What exactly did my Chu Family do in ancient times? Why have they never been famous?
Old Taoist Xu Que nodded and said, "That's right, that is what your grandfather told me back then! I was just as shocked as you are at the time! After all, immortality is too inconceivable! It is something that Cultivators of our generation dream of!"
"It's a pity! The price for this so-called immortality is too great!"
As he spoke, a look of melancholy and regret appeared on his aged face.
Chu Xiao continued to ask, "Master, what do you mean by that?"
Old Taoist Xu Que smiled without speaking. He took out a yellowed notebook from his bosom and then said, "This contains the cultivation method for the Immortality Technique! It can allow a Cultivator to defy the heavens and change their fate! However, this technique is not tolerated by Heaven and Earth, and it is too evil! It actually requires using the essence and blood of living people as nutrients to sustain oneself! At the same time, this technique will cause one's beastly nature to flare up, gradually causing one to lose their humanity! They will turn into a monster that is neither human nor ghost!"
Chu Xiao took the yellowed notebook and opened it. After just a rough glance, he couldn't help but gasp, saying, "Damn! This is the Immortality Technique? It's simply too outrageous! It even requires eating human hearts and brains..."
Old Taoist Xu Que nodded, "That's right! It is indeed very outrageous! However, it is also very tempting! It was because of this that your grandfather died! To tell you the truth, if I hadn't already seen through the world, I might have chosen to Cultivate this technique too! After all, who wouldn't want to live a few hundred or a few thousand years longer?"
Chu Xiao was left speechless, not knowing whether to laugh or cry, "It seems that my grandfather and you really had a good relationship. To think he even gave you such a secret that the Family does not pass on!"
Old Taoist Xu Que chuckled and said without any shame, "Hehe, he didn't give it to me! I got him drunk and copied it secretly! After all, this Immortality Technique is too tempting! When I was young, I couldn't resist it either!"
Chu Xiao: "...!!"
At this point, Old Taoist Xu Que suddenly seemed to remember something and asked in return, "You brat, what are you doing running here in the middle of the night? Why aren't you sleeping?"
Chu Xiao grinned and said, "It's nothing, I just came out to take a leak! To water and fertilize the flowers and plants in the backyard!"
Old Taoist Xu Que said, "Good! Your master has the same intention! Let's go together!"
Chu Xiao: "That wouldn't be appropriate, would it?"
Old Taoist Xu Que: "We are both men, what is inappropriate about that! Are you shy or something?"
Chu Xiao: "Master, what do you think of this watch I bought last year?"
As he spoke, a watch appeared on Chu Xiao's wrist out of nowhere.
"You brat, this watch of yours is really..." Old Taoist Xu Que had just turned his head to look, and before he could finish his sentence, he was instantly hit by the poisoned needle hidden inside the watch, rolled his eyes, and collapsed to the ground.
It is truly worthy of being a System product! He fainted immediately!
If this were used for bad deeds, wouldn't it...
"Sigh! Seriously! I wasted another 500 pleasure points!"
"I don't know how long this coma will last."
Chu Xiao was worried that the poison from the needle wouldn't be enough, so he fired a few more needles. After all, this Old Taoist Xu Que was also a Cultivator at the Peak of Foundation Establishment; if he woke up in a few minutes, it would be very troublesome.
After confirming everything was fine, Chu Xiao clapped his hands, found the key to the backyard house, and opened the mysterious hut filled with Heaven and Earth Spiritual Essence.
Inside the room, the jade-like tree that had miraculously sprouted from dead wood stood gracefully, blooming in the darkness, with purple electric arcs flickering on its jade-white leaves.
"Why hasn't it grown?"
Chu Xiao muttered to himself. He pulled out the stopper of the mysterious small green bottle, tilted the bottle, and a few drops of mysterious liquid dripped onto the tree bud.
It was strange to say! The liquid inside the mysterious small green bottle could actually recover on its own, accumulating about 1-3 drops every day.
The small sapling that absorbed the mysterious liquid began to grow again. In the blink of an eye, it grew to thirty centimeters tall, and at the same time, it extended new leaves.
Chu Xiao clicked his tongue in wonder and said, "Golden Dragon, you are knowledgeable! Do you recognize this tree?"
His voice echoed in the quiet room.
Soon, the Golden Dragon ring on his thumb transformed into a handsome man in golden robes. He carefully observed the jade-white sapling, a look of astonishment flashed in his eyes, and he said hesitantly, "Master! If I am not mistaken! This tree should be a very rare Innate divine tree! It's a pity it was destroyed. Although you catalyzed a tender sprout from it! Its Origin is missing too much!"
"So, you don't know what it is either?" Chu Xiao listened, confused, but he was in a very good mood. Even the Golden Dragon couldn't identify the species of this tree, so it must be extremely extraordinary.
The Golden Dragon frowned and said in a deep voice, "Master! It seems that the world you are in is not simple! A world capable of nurturing an Innate divine tree is, at the very least, a small Divine Realm!!!"
"Divine Realm?" Chu Xiao stroked his chin and asked curiously, "What does that mean? Explain it in detail!"
"The Chaos Universe is boundless and contains countless worlds. These worlds are further subdivided into: Mortal Realm, Spirit Realm, Immortal Realm, and Divine Realm!! In addition to these, there are the Ghost Realm, Monster Realm, Demon Realm... Among them, the most powerful in the world System is the Divine Realm! The creatures in the Divine Realm are terrifying and unfathomable. Even an Immortal King at the Peak Realm will perish if they are not careful! And those Innate gods and demons are even more terrifying..."
The Golden Dragon said.
Chu Xiao seemed to understand and blurted out, "So, you mean! Earth used to be a Divine Realm?"
The Golden Dragon shook his head slowly, "This is just a guess of mine. Given the current energy concentration of this world, it is at best just a small Spirit Realm. There are only two possibilities for it to be able to nurture such an Innate divine tree. Either some great power brought the roots of this tree here. Or, this world has degenerated. Between the two possibilities, I am more inclined towards the latter."
No world is unchanging; it has its own life cycle. Some worlds are Divine-Grade worlds when they are created, but under the erosion of time, their energy gradually exhausts, slowly degenerating into low-level worlds.
And some worlds are only low-level worlds at the beginning, but they slowly grow and can also transform and sublimate into Advanced worlds.
"Forget it! Never mind all that!"
Chu Xiao waved his hand, turned around, and walked to the ancient bronze coffin. He looked inside through the gaps in the coffin.
He saw that the stunningly beautiful female zombie was opening her beautiful eyes and looking at him too. Her eyes were beautiful, her lips were moist, her skin was fair, it was just that her fingernails were too long...
Chu Xiao swallowed his saliva, quickly took out a corpse control pill, and stuffed it inside through the gap in the coffin.
