Although the Dragon Soul was sealed in the Dragon Subduing Academy and lived the life of a prisoner, it still had a lot of prestige among the students.
At the very least, every great teacher and student who entered the Dragon Subduing Palace harbored a pious attitude and worshiped the Dragon God. They desired to comprehend the levels and obtain the Great Desolate Dragon Subduing Scripture.
The dragon soul was already used to such a life. He had thought that things wouldn't be too different after coming to the Central Province Academy. But who would have expected that he would be beaten to the head the first time they met?
What sort of people were these two personal disciples of Sun Mo?
Although one of them was surprised, it was just a normal reaction when humans saw rare beasts. There was no fear, panic, or even admiration.
The other one was even more terrifying. He had actually eaten dragon meat before?
The Dragon Soul was also an old dog that had been beaten by society for a long time, so it could tell that this girl with a pair of big papayas was not joking.
"I suddenly don't feel well. I'm going to rest."
After the dragon soul transmitted its voice to Sun Mo, it immediately transformed into a wisp of green smoke and vanished into the air.
"Haha!"
Sun Mo laughed loudly.
Li Ziqi was someone who had even met the ancient Wind King before. Moreover, she was even planning to turn the ancient Wind King into her spiritual beast. How could she be afraid of a giant dragon?
One must know that there were records of giant dragons in the history of the Middle-Earth Nine Provinces.
To put it bluntly, it was just a type of animal that was on the verge of extinction. However, the Wind King was an elemental lifeform. Everything about it was a mystery.
"Have you really eaten dragon meat?"
Li Ziqi was curious.
"I've eaten it before. It's rare, but there's nothing special about it. I just remember that my father told the chef to add more salt and stew it for a while."
Lu Zhiruo smacked her lips. "On the other hand, those mushrooms my sister found back then are quite delicious. Moreover, after eating them, I'll definitely be able to have a sweet dream."
Seeing the two girls chatting, Sun Mo rubbed Lu Zhiruo's head.
"System, open the chests. Let's start with three Mysterious Treasure Chests."
Sun Mo instructed.
Ding! Ding! Ding!
After three crisp sounds of boxes being opened, three different colored balls of light, one green, one black, and one gold, floated out.
Ding!
"Congratulations, you've obtained a 100-year time emblem."
Ding!
"Congratulations, you have obtained [Advanced Toxicology Theory Manual]. Proficiency: Specialist Level."
Ding!
"Congratulations, you have obtained the recipe, Requiem Smoke. Proficiency: Specialist."
"This formula is a medicinal pill. After use, it will produce a faint white smoke. The smell is light and hard to detect, but if a beast breathes it in, it will produce a strong calming effect, greatly reducing the beast's aggressiveness."
"Note: If too much is inhaled, the beast's nerves may be damaged, paralyzed, and in serious cases, death."
After hearing the system's explanation, Sun Mo revealed a satisfied smile.
Sure enough, with the mascot in hand, I have the best in the world!
There was no need to mention 100-year time emblems. This was a strategic resource. Even if it was sold in the merchant store, the price would be extremely high.
Sun Mo would definitely not spend favorable impression points on such a thing.
It was an advanced theory manual for poisons, and it was even a specialized edition. As long as he learned it, he would immediately be able to master it and use it as his own fighting strength.
Sun Mo was an upright person and didn't wish to rely on poison to harm others. However, one mustn't be too careless. If he learned more about poison, he would be able to avoid suffering losses.
Of course, the most precious thing was the formula for the Requiem Smoke.
Let alone the Middle-Earth Nine Provinces, even in the modern era, the formula was still the most valuable thing.
From the formula for small things like braised meat, happy water, and thirteen-spice, to large things like medicinal formulas for curing stubborn diseases, once someone grasped it, they wouldn't run out of money even after a few generations.
This was a money tree.
Look at the formula for the Requiem Smoke. Although it couldn't be consumed directly, its effect was still tyrannical.
When students went out for tempering or great teacher groups ventured deep into the Darkness Continent, encountering ferocious beasts was the most common danger. But once one had the Requiem Smoke, their safety would be greatly increased.
One could say that as long as the effect was good, this thing would definitely become a must-have item for cultivators who went out for tempering.
"I've struck it rich."
Sun Mo was happy for a while and then calmed down.
There was no solution to it. Right now, he really didn't lack money.
Leaving aside the Wind King Divine Hall's mine, just the sales of the giant medicine packet and beauty medicine packet would bring Sun Mo a large amount of money every month.
At the very least, Sun Mo could just go out to draw a few spirit runes and earn a lot of money from his appearance fees.
Naturally, this amount of money was more than enough to feed himself. However, it wasn't enough to maintain a school. After all, the school had to add new facilities and provide free alchemy pills and scholarships to genius students.
In the modern era, such money was allocated by the country. But in the Central Province Academy, one could only earn it themselves.
The Great Tang Emperor wanted to allocate funds, but such money would burn his hands.
"Let's continue to open treasure chests. Let's do another three in a row!"
Sun Mo was unperturbed. Because Lu Zhiruo was around, the probability of him opening peak-grade treasure chests was as stable as an old dog.
Ding!
"Congratulations, you've obtained 1x spirit rune design template!"
Ding!
"Congratulations, you've obtained 1x Life-Chasing Pill. Quality: peerless-grade saint-tier."
"This pill is most suitable for the Longevity Realm. After consuming it, it can allow one's body to be reborn and become younger. It can increase one's lifespan by over ten years, up to a maximum of 100 years."
"The formula for this pill has already been lost in Middle-Earth. Moreover, it requires 100 types of medicinal ingredients, and all of them are incomparably valuable. Moreover, it's extremely difficult to concoct. Hence, it's extremely valuable."
"If a cultivator is at the bottleneck of the Longevity Realm, they can immediately break through after consuming this pill. But if they don't consume it, it's because every time they break through to the Longevity Realm, it's a sublimation of their will and spirit."
Sun Mo sank into contemplation. The system's explanation revealed many meanings.
Firstly, because the pill formula had already been lost, every single Life-Chasing Pill in the Nine Provinces was priceless.
It was because this thing could not only help cultivators break through to the next realm, but it could also increase their lifespan.
Living a few more years would always be what people desired the most.
Hence, this pill was a hard currency. Many emperors and sovereigns would definitely be willing to pay the price of being conferred the title of king in exchange for it.
Moreover, breaking through to the Longevity Realm didn't just increase one's lifespan. It was also a broadening of one's will, horizons, and spirit. It was like when a person moved from the countryside to a big city or traveled to various countries, the three views of the world would change.
If one didn't have such a sublimation, they might be stuck at the limits of the Longevity Realm and wouldn't be able to step into the Legendary Realm.
"So it's no longer possible to rely on alchemy pills to break through to the Longevity Realm. I have to comprehend it myself."
Sun Mo understood.
Thinking about it, if one could reach the Legendary Realm after living for 1,000 years, wouldn't a thousand-year tortoise or a ten-thousand-year turtle be at the Legendary Realm?
Li Ziqi and Lu Zhiruo no longer spoke. They quietly looked at Sun Mo, their gazes filled with worship.
Their teacher who was in contemplation was so charming!
They couldn't get enough of him no matter how they looked at him.
Ding!
"Congratulations, you've obtained 100 average-grade heaven-tier cultivation arts. Proficiency index: grandmaster-grade."
This reward wasn't bad. Although Sun Mo didn't need the average-grade heaven-tier cultivation arts anymore, the grandmaster-grade proficiency index could provide him with a lot of experience.
Otherwise, if he were to cultivate it himself, even if he only needed two of them a year, it would take him at least 50 years.
"Next, open the rainbow-colored diamond treasure chests. Two of them."
Sun Mo instructed.
The treasure chests instantly opened, and a round ball that shone with golden light floated out.
Ding!
"Congratulations, you've obtained a dragon-seeking pearl!"
Sun Mo's eyes brightened.
"Good stuff!"
He had one of these items. It was a limited item in the merchant store, and he had spent 250,000 favorable impression points to get it.
The dragon-seeking pearl was a mysterious and powerful natural secret treasure. After spirit qi was channeled into it, it would constantly point toward the most valuable secret treasure in this region.
Its effect was similar to a treasure hunting radar.
If used well, it would definitely be worth the price.
The other reward was also very good. It was the first part of the Undying Mystic Art.
This was a peerless-grade saint-tier cultivation art.
With the first part, it meant that Sun Mo could finally start cultivating it. However, he didn't have the time. He hadn't started cultivating the Battlegod Catalog and the Great Desolate Dragon Subduing Scripture.
"Sigh, having too many divine arts is also a type of trouble."
Sun Mo sighed ruefully.
If others were to hear this, they would definitely vomit on Sun Mo's face. Truly, a well-fed man didn't know the hunger of a starving man.
"Let's continue!"
Sun Mo patted Lu Zhiruo's head.
There were too many good things, so much so that he didn't care about the following rewards. Even if he opened trash, he wouldn't suffer a loss.
Ding!
"Congratulations, you've obtained 100 average-grade puppet creation techniques."
Ding!
"Congratulations, you've obtained 1,000 types of plants from the Darkness Species Encyclopedia. Proficiency index: expert-grade."
Ding!
"Congratulations, you've obtained three bottles of Myriad Spirits Divine Oil."
When Sun Mo heard this, he couldn't help but take a few more glances.
This was a type of oil used to temper one's body and spirit. When used together with the ancient massaging technique, it would have a divine effect.
From the introduction, this divine oil was refined from the essences of 10,000 types of plants and animals. Its effect was 1,000 times that of ancient whale oil.
How amazing was it?
By smearing this divine oil on one's body frequently, even those who couldn't sense spirit qi would be able to absorb it and start cultivating.
Was the honest guy Qi Shengjia miserable?
Miserable, but those who were even more miserable than him were those who didn't even have a chance to cultivate.
But now, this bottle of divine oil gave them a chance.
One could say that if this divine oil could be mass-produced, the Middle-Earth Nine Provinces would enter an era where everyone could cultivate.
"System, does the merchant store sell this divine oil?"
Sun Mo guessed that this thing would definitely be very expensive.
"Are you dreaming?"
The system spoke in disdain, "And even if there is, you wouldn't be able to afford it."
"What are you being arrogant for? Are you looking down on my Lucky Emperor Lu? Just wait a few days and I will open the recipe for the Myriad Spirits Divine Oil. "
Sun Mo rolled his eyes.
There were still two mysterious treasure chests left. Sun Mo got the system to open them together.
One was a 100-year time emblem.
The other was an expert-grade spiritual control technique for birds.
To other spirit controllers, this was a good thing. But if it was given to Sun Mo, it would be useless. After all, she was someone who had even grasped the divine language of spiritual control, Air Proof.
However, he could give it to others.
Sun Mo drew in a deep breath and leaned against the side of the pool, preparing to close his eyes and rest. After Li Ziqi and Lu Zhiruo left, he would immediately digest these battle spoils.
"I've become stronger again, and I'm not bald."
Sun Mo felt very pleased. But in the next instant, his brows furrowed so tightly that they could squeeze a crab to death. He seemed to have forgotten something!
