"These are the two items?" Zhong Shan narrowed his eyes as he stared at the two items.
One was a Rebirth Pill, and the other was a metal ball?
"That's right. Do you recognize this God Refining Ball? This is the first question. "Princess Qian You slowly walked down. She waved the fan in her hand with a smug look on her face.
"God Refining Ball?" Zhong Shan was puzzled.
Seeing Zhong Shan's confusion, Princess Qian You smiled and said, "The God Refining Ball, as its name suggests, is used to train one's divine sense. Look at this metal ball. There are two holes. One is the entrance, and the other is the exit. There are more than 50,000 forks in the interior, but most of them are dead ends. It's like a maze. Only one path can go through two holes. What you need to do is to use a grain of rice to go in from one hole and out from the other. "
As she spoke, Princess Qian You took out a grain of rice and placed it in Zhong Shan's hand.
Looking at the grain of rice in his hand and the two holes, Zhong Shan frowned.
"You need to use your divine sense to explore the maze inside the ball. Then use your divine sense to wrap around the grain of rice, causing it to enter through the entrance and continuously move through the interior until it reaches the exit." Princess Qian You smiled.
"Eh, this can indeed train the strength of one's divine sense, and even the precision of one's divine sense. However, this subject has yet to cultivate his divine sense. Isn't Princess making things difficult for this subject?" Zhong Shan frowned.
"I didn't have my divine sense back then, and His Majesty also gave this question. Could it be that you suspect His Majesty?" Princess Qian You pointed her fan at Zhong Shan and questioned.
"This subject doesn't dare." Zhong Shan was speechless. This Princess Qian You was indeed a mischievous person. She blocked all his excuses with a single sentence.
"As long as you don't dare." Princess Qian You smiled.
"Then, can this subject find someone to do it for me?" Zhong Shan immediately asked.
"Do it for you? Of course not. "Princess Qian You paused for a moment, speechless at Zhong Shan's question.
Looking at the grain of rice in his hand, Zhong Shan frowned. More than fifty thousand paths? So many?
"That's the first question. The second day is more direct. There's a Renewal Pill here. Do you see it?" Princess Qian You pointed at the Renewal Pill with her fan.
"Yes." Zhong Shan nodded.
"The second question is to turn this Renewal Pill into a Nascent Formation Pill," Princess Qian You said.
"Eh? Change? The Ascension Pill was a Tier 3 Pill, but the Nascent Formation Pill was a Tier 4 Pill. To change the Ascension Pill into a Nascent Formation Pill? Could it be that the Princess wants me to replenish the herbs and refine them again? Refining the Nascent Soul Pill? "Zhong Shan frowned.
"I can't add anything?" Princess Qian You asked with a troubled expression.
Shui Tianya, Ah Da, and Ah Er all broke out in cold sweat for Zhong Shan. This was definitely a difficult task. How could he possibly accomplish it? Creating pills out of thin air? He wasn't an immortal, and there was such a huge difference between the Renewal Pill and the Nascent Formation Pill. How could he possibly complete it?
"What? Did you hear what I said? "Princess Qian You smiled.
Zhong Shan frowned as he looked at the two items, then back at Princess Qian You. He suddenly bowed. "Is the Princess's words true?"
"True? What is true? "Princess Qian You was stunned. Of course it was true. This was the question. How could it be false?
"The Princess said before that if I can solve these two questions, I can let bygones be bygones. Also, I won't have to kneel when I see the Princess," said Zhong Shan solemnly.
Hearing Zhong Shan's words, everyone suddenly looked at Zhong Shan.
Ah Da and Ah Er looked at Zhong Shan in shock. Was this person an idiot? These questions were clearly impossible. How could he possibly solve them? For a grain of rice to pass through a Godrefining Sphere, it required heaven-defying luck. Then it was even more impossible to turn the Renewal Pill into a Nascent Formation Pill.
As for Shui Tianya, he looked at Zhong Shan in confusion. From what Shui Wuhen had told him, Zhong Shan was an extraordinary person. But wasn't this boasting a bit too much?
As for Princess Qian You, her eyes lit up. These two questions were originally meant to give Zhong Shan a show of strength, but Zhong Shan seemed to have a way to solve them. It had to be known that the Emperor had given her ten questions without a time limit. She had made a bet with the Emperor. If she could really solve them, then she would have won the bet. At that time, she would be able to obtain that item. Of course, this wasn't the most important thing. The most important thing was Zhong Shan. If he could really solve them, then wouldn't that be what she wanted the most? Would he also be a genius on the same level as Shui Jing?
With a trace of anticipation, Princess Qian You said, "Of course."
"Then this subordinate has a request, but I don't know if I should mention it," said Zhong Shan immediately.
"Speak," said Princess Qian You.
"If this subordinate says it, then please forgive me," said Zhong Shan.
"Alright, don't worry. I'm not a petty person," said Princess Qian You doubtfully.
"Princess, please write it down in black and white so that this subordinate can rest assured," said Zhong Shan.
"You!" Princess Qian You was angry, but then she looked at Zhong Shan in amusement.
Shui Tianya, Ah Da, and Ah Er all broke out in cold sweat. This Zhong Shan was indeed not an ordinary person.
At this moment, Zhong Shan looked down and waited quietly. This was because Zhong Shan knew the saying, "Only vile people and women are difficult to deal with." Princess Qian You was clearly not a pedantic person. If she refused to admit it, then he could only grit his teeth and swallow it. He might as well make it clear from the start. Moreover, from Princess Qian You's attitude, she didn't seem to be a petty person.
Looking at Zhong Shan's expression, Princess Qian You didn't know whether to laugh or cry. However, Zhong Shan's words seemed to be filled with confidence. Princess Qian You looked forward to it even more.
"Apart from His Majesty and Father, no one dares to negotiate with me. You're the first. Alright, I'll sign the agreement for you today. If you can't solve the problem, see how I'll deal with you. "Princess Qian You took a deep breath.
"Thank you, Princess," said Zhong Shan calmly.
Then, a strange scene appeared in the hall. Zhong Shan took out a pen and paper and started writing on the table.
Letter of Promise
I promise that if Zhong Shan can make the rice pass through the God Refining Sphere and turn the Renewal Pill in his hand into a Nascent Formation Pill, then all our past grievances will be written off. In the future, when Zhong Shan sees me, he won't have to kneel and bow to me and will no longer target Zhong Shan.
Zhong Shan wrote two copies, both of which were the same. He handed them to Princess Qian You for her to sign.
Looking at this strange letter of promise, Princess Qian You was speechless again. She felt like she had been defeated. Speechless, extremely speechless.
"Princess, please sign it. Make two copies." Zhong Shan handed the pen in his hand to Princess Qian You.
His expression was as if he was forcing someone to sign a contract to sell their body.
Shui Tianya, Ah Da, and Ah Er broke out in cold sweat. They were completely speechless. This Zhong Shan was indeed very, uh, very powerful.
Princess Qian You raised the pen and signed 'Gu Qian You' twice, then handed the pen and paper to Zhong Shan. Obviously, if Zhong Shan could really solve the problem, then she would definitely not target Zhong Shan anymore.
Looking at the two letters of promise with satisfaction, Zhong Shan put away the pen and one of the copies, then handed the other to Princess Qian You.
"Princess, keep this. We'll begin." Zhong Shan smiled.
Princess Qian You took it and nodded, then looked at Zhong Shan curiously.
Zhong Shan walked in front of the Shackling God Ball and tapped it lightly. He looked at the small hole, then at the rice grains in his hand, then smiled.
Seeing Zhong Shan's smile, Princess Qian You was puzzled. "Have you thought of a way?"
"Yes, if there's more time, there are many ways. However, if you want to do it immediately, there's only one way for now." Zhong Shan thought for a while before replying.
Hearing Zhong Shan's words, everyone frowned. Many ways? You must have seen a ghost!
Princess Qian You frowned and looked at Zhong Shan. Because Princess Qian You was already suspecting Zhong Shan. Many ways? Absolutely impossible. Zhong Shan wouldn't be spouting nonsense, right?
"Princess, find some sturdy, thin, and light spider silk for me. Also, find some soybean oil and an ant nest. This subordinate can immediately pass the rice grains through." Zhong Shan looked around.
Hearing Zhong Shan's words, Princess Qian You's brows furrowed, and her suspicions towards Zhong Shan quickly dissipated. Zhong Shan had said that he could immediately pass through the rice grains. Judging from how confident he was, it was clear that he wasn't bluffing.
"Ah Da, quickly go and find them," said Princess Qian You.
"Yes." Although Ah Da was puzzled, he still quickly left the hall.
The only thing left was to wait for Ah Da to return.
"What do you need spider silk, soybean oil, and ant nest for?" asked Princess Qian You. Because even she couldn't think of a method, how could Zhong Shan think of one in such a short time?
Looking at Princess Qian You, Zhong Shan smiled. "Princess, you've lived a life of luxury since you were young in Celestial Dynasty City. Naturally, you wouldn't know the methods of a mortal like me. Because you don't have access to these things, it's hard for you to think of my methods. If princess could experience the life of a mortal, you would definitely be able to discover some miraculous things."
Princess Qian You didn't say anything and just waited for Ah Da to return.
Not long after, the three things were placed on the table.
Zhong Shan looked at the sturdy spider silk and nodded in satisfaction. He picked a strong ant from the nest and carefully tied the silk to its body. Then, he stuffed the ant into a hole in the Godrefining Ball. He didn't want it to come out.
Next, Zhong Shan picked out the largest ant queen and placed it in another hole in the Godrefining Ball. Then, he took out a rice grain from his storage bracelet and stuck it to the hole, preventing it from leaving. Then, he gently blew a few breaths into the hole.
The ant queen kept twisting its body as if it was terrified.
Then, in front of everyone's surprised eyes, the spider silk in Zhong Shan's hand continued to enter the Shackling God Ball. More and more spider silk entered the Shackling God Ball. Clearly, the strong ants inside were running around. As they walked around the Godrefining Ball, more and more spider silk was pulled in. Since the spider silk was extremely thin, it naturally didn't take up much weight. Even the small ants could pull a large amount of spider silk and walk around freely.
PS: Ants passing through the silk is a small trick. Turning the Upgrade Pill into a Nascent Soul Pill is a technical skill. It's not like stealing a pill from the storage bracelet. Although Zhong Shan has a lot of Nascent Soul Pills, the princess has even more. How can it be changed? There's a foreshadowing in the beginning. Take a guess. There's a fourth update tonight. Also, I'm willing to ask for monthly votes. (* ^ _ _ ^ *) … (To be continued, if you want to know more, please go to www.qidian.com. Support the author, support the original reading!)
