What was this?!
Celeste was suddenly dumbfounded.
This was the sound of the pills happily hitting the walls of the pill furnace. It followed a rather perfect rhythm, as if someone was striking a bell to create a cheerful movement. It was like the crisp sound of nature and was pleasing to the ears.
Closely after, an extremely rich pill fragrance ignored the material obstruction of the walls of the pill furnace and wafted out from the pill furnace!
The surging impact and the unusual fragrance … Could it be?!
Celeste was dumbfounded. She gaped with her mouth wide open. Wang Zhong had appropriately opened the pill furnace, but there was no air current. On the contrary, waves of golden light dazzled from within the pill furnace. Two golden pills mixed with the golden light and soared into the sky.
There was no doubt that they were Perfect Pills!
How — how was this possible?!
Celeste simply felt as if her outlook on life had been overturned. The entire process was obviously not perfect. She had judged that it would be a 50% -pill at most. How could a Perfect Pill be produced? Even if it was luck, it should not have happened like this, right?
However, Wang Zhong did not seem to be pleasantly surprised by this. This was definitely a batch of Perfect Pills.
When it came to pills, one's foundation, techniques, and methods determined the lower limit of pills. If one was powerful enough, one could be 100% confident in producing a 90% -pill. However, one would not be able to produce a Perfect Pill by relying on these. This was because they were simply two different paths of pill refinery. The threshold for producing a Perfect Pill was very low in some aspects. As long as one could ensure that the nurturing of the medicine spirit was not wrong and the pills could be formed, there was a chance of producing a Perfect Pill. Furthermore, the rest depended on the so-called 'fate' and compatibility. There was no need to talk about compatibility. However, fate was something that most people attributed to luck, but in reality, one could control one's fate.
"You … How did you do it?" Celeste was truly shocked. If Wang Zhong used luck to explain this, she would find it hard to believe. After all, this was the third time! Furthermore, he had done it three times in a row right under her nose. This world was huge, and there were all sorts of strange things, but how could he do it again and again? Furthermore, there were obviously flaws in Wang Zhong's pill refinery process. It was unlikely that he would produce a batch of high-quality pills …
"Actually, even if you really wanted me to explain, I wouldn't be able to." This was not strange. Even an almighty being like Elder Yimo could not teach others how to refine the Perfect Pill, let alone Lao Wang who was merely looking at the bigger picture and using a single method to fight for a trace of fate. "However, one thing is certain. The Perfect Pill has nothing to do with the existence of the so-called flaws. I feel that it should be about controlling fate."
Wang Zhong's move was rather domineering. As for whether Celeste could understand it or not, it was not something he could control.
It was obvious that the daughter of the Heavenly Shell Crown Prince could not understand Wang Zhong's theory. This was not the same as the pill studies that she usually came into contact with. It was beyond the scope of theory and common sense and was a mysterious thing. It was just like discussing the meaning of gods with an atheist. However, this did not affect her eyes from sparkling and sparkling. To the women of the Heavenly Shell race, their sense of beauty was completely different from the usual sense of beauty.
When ordinary humans admired a person of the opposite sex, they would first look at the person's face and body. Regardless of whether the person was a child or a loli, as long as the person's appearance was in line with their aesthetic standards and could make one's hormones rush at a glance, then that was attraction.
But what about the Heavenly Shell race? It was just like how peacocks admired the opposite sex by looking at whether the other party had prettier tail feathers, or how orangutans admired the opposite sex by looking at whether the other party had a stronger body. In fact, it was just like how some primitive animals were attracted to each other by their strong scent. There was only one condition that could cause the Heavenly Shell race to have this kind of attraction to the opposite sex, and that was to accumulate their Core! One should not forget that before the ancestor of the Heavenly Shell race had gained intelligence, he was just an ordinary shell in the ocean. Whether or not their shell could produce sparkling pearls was an important standard to measure their value. That was to be the most beautiful and attractive member of the Heavenly Shell race …
Meanwhile, at that moment, Wang Zhong had this kind of 'charm' in Celeste's eyes. Furthermore, it was extremely great. As a fellow who had just started learning pill refinery, he had refined three Perfect Pills in a row. What was the difference between him and a beauty who was an outstanding beauty in the eyes of humans who casually put on some light makeup? Not only was he beautiful, but he was also completely natural! He had become like this in just a few months. If he was allowed to continue learning, wouldn't he be extremely beautiful? Wasn't that simply beautiful? His entire body, inside and out, was filled with an attraction that would make the Heavenly Shell race intoxicated …
As Wang Zhong spoke, he sensed Celeste's passionate gaze. Even someone as noble as Celeste, even someone as noble as the daughter of the Heavenly Shell Crown Prince, frankly speaking, she was still a little girl who had just experienced her first awakening of love. Others saw her as too aloof and cold, but because the gap between them was too large, others felt that she was too high to reach.
"Wang Zhong, have you ever thought about getting a girlfriend from the Heavenly Shell race?" Celeste was not bashful at all. Daring to love and hate had always been one of the labels of women from the Heavenly Shell race, just like how their chief had been given to the Fire Demon race back then.
The pill house instantly fell silent. Not only was Lao Wang dumbfounded, but the three elemental spirits beside him were also flabbergasted, especially Nini and Yiyi! Master was a 'fat piece of meat' that even they could only sniff once every ten days or half a month. This woman … No, no, no. This poop scooper actually wanted to dominate him? Based on what?! This definitely would not do! However, it was obvious that they could not intervene in this matter and could only stare and worry helplessly.
Although Wang Zhong was not experienced in battles, he could do as he pleased. He smiled and said, "I already have a wife."
Not only did Celeste know about Lan Daier, but she also knew about Scarlet. As a girl, the Heavenly Shell race had a relatively similar worldview to Earthlings. Furthermore, the Heavenly Shell race was more meticulous. As the daughter of the Heavenly Shell race, Celeste had received various gazes and temptations since young. Thus, she was more cautious than anyone else. In the eyes of any normal person, a person who might advance toward immortality in the divine territory and an Earthling who was worlds apart were already separated by a planet. However, Wang Zhong was still like this. Most importantly, Celeste could sense his sincerity and was not playing hard to get.
The more this was the case, the more she admired and respected him.
"I'm not asking you to make a decision now. I believe that time will change." Celeste did not go overboard. This did not match her identity and was impolite to Wang Zhong.
Wang Zhong smiled faintly and didn't dwell on this issue. Some people were honest and forthright.
Celeste could not hold back. Roro also saw this and hurriedly took the opportunity to leave. After all, the gazes of the other two spirits, Nini and Yiyi, seemed to be able to pierce through them.
The daughter of the Heavenly Shell Crown Prince, who was cold in the eyes of countless people, actually had such a passionate side. Wang Zhong was rather moved but did not delve into this issue. He had been in the divine territory for quite some time, and he missed Scarlet a little. It was said that the path of cultivation was lonely, but if one was truly lonely, what reason would there be to continue on?
After packing up the pills, Senior Lavel's messenger arrived. It was obvious that she was waiting for him.
"Wang Zhong, come to the Creation Star Ring immediately!"
Lavel was even more straightforward and did not waste any time talking nonsense with Wang Zhong.
Had the Soul Steel been settled? Lao Wang was also rather expectant. This concerned whether he would be able to obtain his level-4 artifact. He hurried over.
"… The second stage of nurturing the Soul Steel requires 49 steps. I haven't even completed 10% of it. How can it be so easy?" Senior Lavel simply poured a bucket of cold water on him. "It's just that when I was resting just now, I heard some very inconceivable things …"
Senior Lavel seemed to be smiling as she sized up the fellow in front of her. "Have you entered the Celestial Honors Class?"
Lao Wang instantly realized that Senior Lavel also had a Celestial Honors Ring on her finger. In reality, this was not surprising. Other than some supervisors and external participants, those who were able to enter the name list for this Heavenly River Tide were all Heavenly Gates pupils. How many of them were not members of the Celestial Honors Class? Regardless of whether it was Lavel or Elder Yimo's personal disciple, Yan Moyu, they were all the same.
"Senior Lavel is really well-informed."
"There are only so many people in the Celestial Honors Class, and the circle is only so big. It is not a small matter if someone joins or dies. I can't say that you are well-informed. Congratulations." Lavel waved her hand. Of course, she had not called Wang Zhong over just to simply confirm his identity or congratulate him.
As a senior in the Celestial Honors Class, Lavel's understanding of the Celestial Honors Class was many times more than Wang Zhong's. In the entire long history of the Heavenly Gates, there were no more than 10 people who were able to enter the Celestial Honors Class at the Void Core Stage. The only person in history who had entered the Celestial Honors Class as a member of a low-leveled civilization was the ancestor of the Heavenly Shell race.
Now, another person had appeared. Furthermore, his path was very similar to that of the Heavenly Shell ancestor. They were both Void Cores from low-leveled civilizations who had entered the Celestial Honors Class and were from civilizations that had just joined the Star Alliance … Ordinary members of the Heavenly Gates might not be very clear about these matters and the meaning behind them, but in the eyes of the seniors in the Celestial Honors Class, they had already exploded.
Back then, when the Heavenly Shell ancestor had entered the Celestial Honors Class, it had caused a lot of controversy. Furthermore, there had been a lot of foreshadowing. At that time, the Heavenly Shell ancestor was a truly influential figure in the Heavenly Gates. He had stirred up the Heavenly Gates and was very famous. However, this Earthling had quietly entered the Celestial Honors Class. This was simply unimaginable. It was said that the Heavenly Shell race, the Machinery race, and the insect race were behind this. Since these three races were able to stand up against the opinions of the masses, this Earthling was obviously not as simple as he seemed on the surface …
"There is no doubt or dissatisfaction. The experts in the Celestial Honors Class are not as senseless as you think. Perhaps most of the members of the Celestial Honors Class are just curious about you." Senior Lavel said, "However, there are always some who are radical. You should pay more attention to them. Also, don't get too close to the Heavenly Shell race. This will not be good for you or the Earthlings."
After she finished speaking, she chased Wang Zhong away, leaving him in a daze. Lavel had a clear goal in mind, but she never spoke clearly. In the eyes of outsiders, there seemed to be a problem with the Fire Demon Race and the Heavenly Shell Race, who were allies.
… …
The Land had a relatively clear boundary for cultivators. Those who were at or below the Void Core Realm were still "children". Only when one accumulated their Solid Core and reached that level of strength and realm would they have the qualifications to slowly come into contact with the entire world.
Regardless of whether it was Lavel's reminders or Celeste's previous conversation, Lao Wang faintly felt that a storm was brewing, and he was about to step into it.
Lao Wang did not know how long Senior Lavel would take to nurture that piece of Soul Steel. The so-called Celestial Honors Class rarely assigned missions once or twice a year. Lao Wang's daily routine in the Heavenly Gates was to go to the Combat Cultivation Hall and follow up on the lessons in the Pill Refinery Hall. He would also often go to the library and undergo closed-door training for three to five days. The rest of his time was spent on consolidating and improving his Void Core. His divine cells did not seem 'outdated' because he had accumulated his Void Core. On the contrary, they had evolved, causing the effects of the Devouring Heaven Technique to increase. The speed at which he absorbed the spiritual influence in the heaven and the earth could completely keep up with the normal standards of the Void Core Realm.
Lao Wang also made good use of his time to cultivate at ease.
There were various Void Core Techniques in the Land, but they only had one function, which was to absorb the spiritual power in the heaven and the earth and complete the accumulation of spiritual power from the initial stages of the Void Core Realm to the peak of the Void Core Realm, allowing the Void Core to complete the initial qualitative change from nothingness to reality. Under normal circumstances, ordinary Void Core Techniques would require at least 100 years to complete this process. Meanwhile, some Void Core Techniques from high-leveled civilizations could increase this speed by 10 times. Some peak level-8 civilizations like the Heavenly Shell race could even shorten this accumulation period to three to five years! If he used the Devouring Heaven Technique, Wang Zhong estimated that he would be able to complete this accumulation in around 10 years.
A technique that he had comprehended during the Foundational Stage was comparable to a Void Core Technique from a high-leveled civilization. If news of this spread, no one would believe it. Furthermore, what was even more terrifying was that Wang Zhong could clearly sense that the limits of the Devouring Heaven Technique that he had miraculously obtained did not seem to be limited to this. There was still a lot of room for improvement. He started to sense some flaws and imperfections in the process of cultivation. However, it was a pity that his current accumulation of cultivation was not enough, and his realm was not high enough either. He could sense where the problem was, but he could not solve it and could only look on and sigh. However, at the very least, the Devouring Heaven Technique should be completely enough for him to use in the Void Core Realm …
There were much fewer people in the Three Great Halls. After completing the first-year course for the newcomers, the lowest-ranking pupils who should have been eliminated had silently left the Heavenly Gates.
The Combat Cultivation Hall's Illusion Sea mission, the Pill Refinery Hall's level-7 pill mission, and the Equipment Refinery Hall's Flying Pig and the others had their Equipment Refinery Hall's Weapon Refinery Hall's Weapon Refinery Hall's first year summary. Those who were inferior, inferior, and weak would naturally be eliminated. No one would pity them, and no one would even pay attention to them. However, even if these people were eliminated, most of them would become tyrants when they returned to the various races in the Land, just like the leader of the Flamerock race who had caused trouble in the Heavenly Treasures Street half a year ago …
The remaining people who were still in the Heavenly Gates were the elites of the elites and could be considered official Heavenly Gates pupils. The various Heavenly Gates benefits started to catch up, such as the so-called Treasure Pavilion Exchange System, the Inner Sanctum Library, and so on. Of course, ordinary pupils did not have the qualifications to enter these places as they pleased, but they could apply and wait for approval from the higher-ups. Alternatively, those who performed well in the various Halls would receive special rewards.
