181: Six-star difficulty, no problem, how about making one?
Has the Three-Leaf Clover Group collapsed? If so, then it has.
Has the Three-Leaf Clover Group not collapsed? If so, then it has.
Zhao Shoucheng keenly realized the seriousness of the problem, pulled the Zhao family's high-level executives together for an emergency meeting, emphasized the problem, and was forced into the ranks of internal competition.
Their monopoly has been shaken; if they don't find a way to overtake, they will lose their foundational advantage.
After Zhao Shoucheng finished stating the seriousness of the problem, he frowned, looking at the note in his hand, and thought of those thousand new Pill Formulas.
Damn, a thousand!
Holy crap!
"Old...Old Ancestor! Look at this!"
A junior from the clan was holding up his phone, his face panicked.
Zhao Shoucheng frowned: "What are you panicking about? With me here, the sky won't fall."
The junior hurriedly projected the video onto the center of the conference room: "Pingdan Group has unveiled AI rice cooker Alchemy technology!
They've got the Mechanical Clan's AI Alchemy technology!!!"
Zhao Shoucheng felt that something was amiss and widened his eyes: "What is this AI?"
The junior was sweating profusely, racking his brain to answer: "Spirit artifact Alchemy method! But it combines Formation and advanced intelligent technology! It's an upgraded version of the Spirit artifact Alchemy method!"
Zhao Shoucheng hurriedly pulled the phone into his palm to watch the video, dumbfounded, feeling like the sky had fallen: "My goodness..."
Alchemy + Spirit Artifact Method + Pill Formation Method + Popularization + Strong Versatility...
Is this firewood Cultivator trying to work himself to death and crush the entire Xia Dynasty's Medicinal Pill industry?!
Zhao Yuan hurriedly opened his phone and looked through it, sweat beading on his forehead: "It's estimated that within three months, the lowest-level Alchemists will be out of work... Mid-level and high-level Alchemists will be less affected."
He didn't know until he came, and once he came, he realized that if he had come half a year later, the Three-Leaf Clover Group would basically have to self-castrate to save its life.
What kind of fierce Great Power is this, working so hard to develop technology?
Zhao Shoucheng was already numb, shattered, holding his forehead, dumbfounded: "He abandoned the pill-forming step!? Can a paste be eaten?!"
If this is how it's done, who would still want to buy from a store? They'd just buy the Materials, apply the formula, put them in, boil them into a paste, and use it on the spot.
Zhao Shoucheng then hurriedly searched for AI Alchemy methods again, and he was once again shattered and numb: "Rice cookers can do Alchemy, pressure cookers can do Alchemy... as long as the method is right... Holy crap!"
This isn't just digging a corner, it's flipping the table directly!
Zhao Yuan was even more numb: "Old Ancestor, he has integrated technology and Cultivation. What do we do now?"
Zhao Shoucheng held his phone, his expression shifting between clear and overcast.
Three minutes ago, what's the panic, I'm here.
Three minutes later, I'm super panicked, I'm sad.
Zhao Shoucheng gritted his teeth: "Quickly facilitate a technical cooperation with Pingdan Group. Before this storm spreads, stabilize the group internally. You all work in three shifts to optimize all existing Pill Formulas, Medicinal Material cultivation, core machines, and so on.
Our advantage is great. I am a ninth-order Cultivator of the wood element. My Domain can produce a large number of rare Medicinal Materials and stabilize the situation."
Zhao Shoucheng felt the taste of being pushed into competition after a long time.
The Zhao family members looked at each other, and could only brace themselves.
They all had to get into the competition. If Pingdan Group truly rose, the Three-Leaf Clover Group's guts would be pierced through.
...
Tang Gao called out to his companions to finish their high-class meal. After they finished eating and cleaned up, they began to Cultivate.
In the middle of the night, Liu Town excitedly knocked on the door, waking Tang Gao.
Tang Gao had no choice but to open the door for him, let him in, and poured him a cup of tea: "What's wrong? Why are you here in the middle of the night instead of Cultivating?"
Liu Town's mouth was crooked with a smile: "The Northern Military System has agreed, and the Three-Leaf Clover Group has also softened and increased benefits, reaching a technical cooperation with us. Your AI Alchemy method has become the new trend in the Alchemy world."
After this series of combination punches, Zhao Shoucheng had already been forced to fly back to the Capital overnight to work on DomainBirth and Pill Formation technology.
The Three-Leaf Clover Group's table had been overturned by Tang Gao.
If the progress had been any slower, it wouldn't have been impossible for the Three-Leaf Clover Group to be hammered down from its leading position and fall to a first-tier group.
Tang Gao calmly took a sip of tea: "Don't hoard these technologies; release ten items regularly every day."
Liu Town was stunned: "What are you trying to do?"
Tang Gao smiled: "It's boring to compete with just one old man; if we're going to compete, let's compete with an entire industry."
Cold sweat broke out on Liu Town's forehead, and he swallowed: "Are you really going to do that?"
This was too crazy.
Tang Gao held his teacup, his smile benevolent: "Ten items is too few; make it twenty items a day, directly released on the official website.
The current Alchemy world is too peaceful; it needs a bit of vitality."
Liu Town wiped the cold sweat from his forehead: "Do you know that your AI Alchemy method has already caused a major earthquake in the Alchemy world?"
Tang Gao chuckled: "What earthquake? I didn't see anything. I only saw that they were living too comfortably. Everyone, get into the competition.
One by one, relying on their monopoly, they thought they were invincible.
I'm very eager to see how wonderful their expressions will be after they lose their monopoly."
Liu Town was numb, stammering: "Then... what will be our advantage?"
Tang Gao took a sip of tea and said leisurely: "You contact Mechanical Yuanzun, the shop that customizes core machines. He will regularly provide you with a batch of Medicinal Pill reserves."
Sorry, holding two major races in hand is just that willful.
Liu Town felt completely unwell, feeling that this world was too crazy, like a mouse being a bridesmaid for a cat.
He had originally come to congratulate and celebrate, but this news blew his mind, making it buzz.
After a while, Liu Town finally remembered what he wanted to say.
"By the way, Li Yuan's matter has been resolved by Zhao Yuan. The Zhao family Disciple who stripped Li Yuan of his Foundation has been beheaded, and related personnel have also been sent to the Guardian Bureau.
After a while, Zhao Yuan will personally go to Li Yuan to discuss restoring his Foundation."
Tang Gao's fingertips caressed the outside of the teacup, his expression calm: "Okay, I know."
Liu Town couldn't help but ask again: "Are you really going to release twenty items every day?"
"Yes, we'll start by publishing optimized Pill Formulas."
Liu Town's mouth twitched, feeling that Tang Gao's way of doing things was just different. He flipped the table right away, as if afraid he wouldn't crush others.
"Okay, I'll take my leave first."
Liu Town left with a complex expression, going to inform everyone of the awesome President Tang's grand plan to crush the entire industry.
Tang Gao hesitated for a moment, then called Li Yuan.
Soon after, Li Yuan pushed open the door and walked in.
Tang Gao pointed to the sofa beside him: "Did you know that your enemy is dead?"
Li Yuan sat down, his expression calm: "I know. I didn't accept Zhao Yuan's conditions."
Tang Gao was stunned: "Why didn't you accept?"
"I only take things from Big Brother. I don't take things from others."
Li Yuan said calmly.
Tang Gao smiled: "Okay, never mind. How's Mom doing lately?"
A smile appeared on Li Yuan's face: "That couple has already conceived Mom, and she'll be born in eight months.
My younger siblings are very concerned about this, and they report to me on time every day."
"Okay, it's good that she's conceived. You can go back; I'm going to Cultivate."
"Okay, Big Brother, good night."
"Mm, good night."
Li Yuan left, gently closing the door, and returned to his own house.
Tang Gao took a sip of tea, feeling completely relaxed, a smile on his face, and summoned his Clones, preparing to discuss their future development.
Tang Gao chuckled: "A mere seven-star mission is nothing more than this. I'm preparing to take an eight-star mission. What do you all think?"
A lousy seven-star mission, I, your young master, easily went through several years of Reincarnation, grinding out millions of Medicinal Pills, millions of Talismanic Incantations, millions of tons of Materials, and millions of other things.
It was easily resolved, with absolutely no difficulty.
Having cleared it, I can speak with such confidence.
Violent Justice rubbed his forehead: "No, please, find a six-star or seven-star one. The steps are too big, and I cry from grinding every time."
There was great progress, but it was always super grindy. The last time, grinding for Zhao Yuan, he directly cried from the grind.
Tang Gao was slightly regretful, opening the mission panel: "Alright, then I'll just casually look for a seven-star mission to do. The Medicinal Pill industry still needs to ferment for a while. Let's see what we'll grind next."
Tang Gao flipped for a while and found a mission he quite liked.
[Six-Star Mission]: Ultimate Challenger
[Mission Content]: Clear twelve trials
[Mission Reward]: Perfect Physique · Primordial Divine Body
Tang Gao stroked his chin: "Six-star difficulty, no big deal. Shall we do one?"
The Clones looked at it and felt that it wasn't a big deal either. In terms of individual power, their Venerable One was invincible among peers and had no problem challenging across ranks. This was one star lower than a seven-star mission, so it should be much easier.
"Okay, mission, activate!"
[Trial of Strength, Activated]
Tang Gao was teleported to a barren plain, scratching his head: "So what exactly is the trial?"
[Mission target has appeared. Please defeat the Six-Order Mountain Giant with pure strength.]
Tang Gao was stunned, looking blankly at the reminder in front of him. The ground began to tremble, and an earth-shattering roar came from afar.
Tang Gao looked up in surprise and saw a Mountain Giant over a hundred meters tall, lowering its massive head to look at him.
The next second.
A huge shadow covered the area where Tang Gao was, and the Mountain Giant's foot landed.
"Holy crap! System, don't be too ridiculous!"
The Six-Order Mountain Giant, standing upon the earth, possessed endless power. Its rocky armor automatically repaired itself at all times, and every attack carried the power of the earth, shaking the ground.
Even an Eight-Order Great Power would not necessarily be able to kill the Mountain Giant, even if they fought until their Qi was exhausted.
Tang Gao's mentality collapsed, regretting choosing the six-star difficulty.
Wouldn't it be better to choose a three-star for a leisurely life?
