The Demonic Cultivator In Zombie World novel Chapter 221

Chapter 221: Giving You a Chance, Yet You Prove Useless!

Shangguan Hao dominated alone, plotting to turn Heavenly Sword City into the private domain of the Shangguan family. Such actions had undoubtedly stirred discontent among many Nascent Soul cultivators. Shangguan Hao's mysterious disappearance was, paradoxically, a stroke of luck for the Majestic Sword Sect.

However, appearances still had to be maintained. After all, Shangguan Hao was a Nascent Soul elder of the Majestic Sword Sect. The sudden disappearance of such a distinguished elder demanded an explanation, from top to bottom.

Chu Xuan greeted Xun Zhao with a formal bow, "He Liang, greets fellow daoist Xun."

Xun Zhao chuckled, "No need for such grand gestures." He introduced, "This is Zhao Qian, fellow daoist Zhao, also an alchemist."

Chu Xuan also bowed to her. Zhao Qian, if he remembered correctly, was once the dao companion of Shangguan Hao. But now, she seemed quite close to Xun Zhao, her attitude clearly warm and intimate, indicating she had moved on. This was normal among cultivators. After all, cultivators lived much longer than mortals. If a dao companion died, one simply found another.

Chu Xuan bowed again, "May I know why fellow daoist Xun has graced my threshold today?"

Xun Zhao smiled, "This place is not suitable for speaking. Please, Master He, let's move to the third-floor private room in the Pill Pavilion. I have prepared it already."

Moments later, in the private room on the third floor of Pill Pavilion, the three of them sat facing each other.

Xun Zhao then spoke, "Master He, are you familiar with the Heavenly Lifespan Pill?"

Chu Xuan nodded slightly, "Of course. The Heavenly Lifespan Pill is a pill of the Deity Transformation stage, which can extend one's lifespan by three hundred years. It is indeed a precious elixir that prolongs the life of great Deity Transformation beings."

Xun Zhao continued, "Do you know how to concoct this Heavenly Lifespan Pill?"

Chu Xuan smiled, continuing, "The process of making the Heavenly Lifespan Pill is extremely intricate. First, one must concoct the Lifespan Pill of the Golden Core stage, then reforge the Lifespan Pill to make the Earth Lifespan Pill of the Nascent Soul stage. Only after reforging the Earth Lifespan Pill can one finally concoct the Heavenly Lifespan Pill. On average, one hundred Lifespan Pills yield only one Heavenly Lifespan Pill."

Xun Zhao clapped his hands, "Exactly! I have come in person to request that you, fellow daoist He, concoct the Heavenly Lifespan Pill."

"Of course, as a Golden Core stage alchemist, you only need to complete the first step, which is the concoction of the Lifespan Pill." He smiled, "This is a task assigned by the Reincarnation Tower. Should you do well, Nascent Soul spiritual items, soul transformation techniques, and various magic treasures are yours to choose from!"

Chu Xuan raised an eyebrow.

The Reincarnation Tower? From Shangguan Hao's memories, he knew that the Reincarnation Divine Church controlled an extraterritorial battlefield, where a Reincarnation Tower was established.

The tower housed cultivators from the Reincarnation Divine Church, possibly Nascent Soul or even Deity Transformation cultivators. This particular extraterritorial battlefield's Reincarnation Tower was guarded by the True Master Tiancang Deity, a Transformation cultivator.

"Is it True Master Tiancang who needs the Heavenly Lifespan Pill?" Chu Xuan pressed.

Xun Zhao smiled affirmatively, "Indeed."

"All alchemists must go to the Reincarnation Tower, with materials supplied by True Master Tiancang, so there's no need to worry about failing the pill concoction," he explained. "If you handle this well, you're certain to win True Master Tiancang's favor. You might even be taken as a direct disciple by that Deity Transformation grand cultivator!

True Master Tiancang's disciples, like Yun Zhongyu and Ming Rui, are they not among the elite of the Nascent Soul cultivators? Fellow daoist Zhao Qian here has already planned to join. Would you, fellow daoist He, be willing to contribute?"

Chu Xuan appeared troubled, "I indeed wish to make an appearance before True Master Tiancang, but unfortunately, my skills in the dao of alchemy are mediocre, not yet sufficient to concoct the Lifespan Pill."
