Conferred God Kings were still God Kings, but they were commanded by the heavens and the God Monarchs. Ordinary God Kings were no match for them.
In terms of strength, even if a Conferred God King were to stand still on the spot, it would still be impossible for a Conferred God King to kill them.
It was just like how numbers could not make up for the difference between an ant and a human.
It was for this reason that a power could only be considered to have a Conferred God King. Anything else could not be considered as top-notch.
To be able to induce the Anima of Yearning in such an expert, the other party had to be an expert of the same cultivation realm or even a God Monarch!
Three God Kings and a Conferred God King … Could it be that the unassuming young man was not an ordinary Celestial God but a powerful figure who had dominated the Myriad Worlds?
"Regardless of who he is, he's not someone we can talk about!"
Forcing his teeth to stop chattering, the first guard replied.
He had thought that the other party was a coward, but at this moment, he realized that they were not even in the same world. Naturally, he could not understand the other party's intentions.
"What's his name?"
The second guard asked.
The first guard was stunned. "I don't know either!"
He had thought that the other party was just a wealthy young master who was afraid of death, so he could not be bothered to ask. In any case, the other party's silhouette would dissipate very soon, so it did not matter whether he remembered it or not. Who could have thought that the other party would be such a powerful figure?
"Don't leak this matter for now, or else we might lose our heads," the second guard said.
"Yes!"
The first guard nodded.
An expert of that level was no longer someone they could come into contact with. If something were to happen to him, they might even lose their heads.
…
After leaving the Netherworld Palace, Zhang Xuan immediately felt that the Anima of Yearning he had absorbed had grown significantly. His mind had become more agile, and his soul energy, which had been restricted to the low-tier Celestial God realm previously, was starting to feel an urge to make a breakthrough.
"It's indeed very useful!"
Zhang Xuan's eyes lit up.
If he had cultivated according to the method he had in the past, it would have taken him at least several years to achieve a breakthrough to the middle-tier Celestial God realm, but now, it would only take him a few months at most!
In other words, leaving this imprint and absorbing the Anima of Yearning had allowed his soul cultivation to advance more than tenfold!
With more Anima of Yearning, it would not be too difficult for him to push his soul to the God King realm anymore.
No wonder Zhuo Feng held it in such high regard. This method was truly powerful.
Thus, Zhang Xuan had delegated most of the work to the others, leaving him free to do whatever he wanted.
Every day, apart from cultivating his soul, he would go to Mingshi Tang for a stroll and give lessons, explaining some knowledge.
He had taught quite a few students, but he had yet to form a Book of Heaven's Path.
Most likely, it was just as the Azure had guessed. This world didn't have a strict master teacher system, so the respect one had for one's teachers was lacking. Unless … one had a close relationship with one's teacher, such as the other party who had saved one's life.
Otherwise, it would not have been so easy for them to form.
However, even before the golden page was completed, the number of people who were grateful to him continued to grow, and his reputation grew as well. As the Anima of Yearning grew stronger, the rate at which his soul cultivation progressed also grew faster and faster.
On the fifth day, Zhang Xuan finally managed to make a breakthrough from low-tier Celestial God to middle-tier Celestial God!
His physical body had also reached high-tier Celestial God pinnacle. Through Qi Ling-er's help, he managed to purchase sufficient high-tier God Essence Pills to push for a breakthrough to middle-tier Celestial God.
High-tier God Essence Pills were effective even for God Kings. Under normal circumstances, it would be nigh impossible to purchase them. However, with his previous experience, the head of the Qi Clan knew that Qi Ling-er had the backing of a God Monarch. Thus, he had given the green light to purchase the high-tier God Essence Pills.
Seven days passed in a flash.
"Of the 10,000 Beauty Pills, the Qi Clan bought 1,000 of them and sold 6,000 of them. However … the entire Imperial City has probably reached its limit. It won't be that easy to sell them off!"
Qi Ling-er clasped her fist.
Beauty Pills were limited by price, so no matter how effective they were and how beneficial they were to cultivators, there was still a limit to how many of them could be sold.
"Not bad!" Zhang Xuan nodded.
To be able to sell this much in such a short period of time was already beyond his expectations. He was very satisfied.
Seven thousand of them cost 1,500 Divine Coins each, which was a total of 10.5 million Divine Coins!
Even in Drifting Specter Royal City, there were less than twenty clans who could fork out such a huge sum of money!
In just seven short days, Zhang Xuan had gone from a penniless outsider to one of the twenty wealthiest people in Royal City!
Not even the Qi Clan, which had a Conferred God King, could pull off such a feat!
In just seven short days, the name 'Zhang Xuan' had become the most popular name in Royal City. There was no one who could replace him.
"As for the gathering, I've already sent out the news. Based on what I've heard, experts from all over the Sky of Drifting Specter and the other Skies have gathered. The venue is the largest square in Royal City," Qi Ling-er said.
Qi Ling-er continued.
Recalling the events that had transpired over the past few days, she could not help but be astonished.
Had it been anyone else, even if the old ancestor of the Qi Clan had summoned them, it would have been impossible for so many experts to gather in just a few short days. Yet, the young man before her had managed to do it!
It was not that he was a rallying force, but the Beauty Pill had spread far and wide over the past few days.
If a woman were to consume it, it could enhance their beauty. If a man were to consume it, it could heal his internal injuries, raise his talent, and even raise his cultivation.
The effectiveness of the Beauty Pill had far exceeded her imagination.
Of course, one of the reasons why the Beauty Pill was so popular was due to Qi Ling-er and the Qi Clan's unstinting promotion. More importantly, there was an incident that had happened four days ago.
In the Sky of Drifting Specter, a low-tier Celestial God was nearing the end of his lifespan. Just as he was about to take his last breath, a junior suddenly bought a Beauty Pill from somewhere and fed it to him.
As a result, he was able to recover from his injuries and extend his lifespan.
While it was hard to tell how long his lifespan had been extended, there was no way he would die anytime soon.
This matter was witnessed by many in the industry who were present, and as soon as the news got out, there was no way they could contain it anymore.
Beauty Pill, healing of internal injuries, raising one's aptitude … While it sounded tempting, it was no longer of much use to most experts. However, an extension of one's lifespan was something that no one could resist.
It was for this reason that the Beauty Pill managed to sell more than two thousand of them.
However, it was not just the Beauty Pill that had drawn the attention of so many experts and powers to the Sky of Drifting Specter. Rather, it was the news that Zhang Xuan had Qi Ling-er spread!
The creator of the Beauty Pill was not only going to release a cheaper and more effective recovery pill today, but it was also going to release a Breakthrough Pill that was targeted at cultivators!
Regardless of whether it was a Celestial God or Divine Spirit realm pinnacle cultivators, as long as they consumed it, it would increase their chances of making a breakthrough by fifty percent!
Ordinary Breakthrough Pills could increase one's lifespan by twenty percent, and that was already something that countless people would go crazy over. But to increase one's lifespan by fifty percent, coupled with some of the unique abilities of a cultivator, it was almost certain that one would be able to make a breakthrough after consuming the pill!
If the news was true, the allure of the Beauty Pill was far greater than that of the Beauty Pill!
Even a pill that could extend one's lifespan was not as impactful as that!
There was a huge gap between the Gods and Celestial Gods. Not only was there a huge difference in strength, more importantly, there was a tenfold difference in lifespan!
To be able to increase one's lifespan by fifty percent, that was equivalent to giving those who had no chance of making a breakthrough before the Beauty Pill. No matter who it was, they would definitely give it a try!
More importantly, there were no side effects to it, so it would not affect one's future cultivation.
As such, as soon as the news spread, it caused a huge uproar among the crowd.
If not for the miraculous effects of the Beauty Pill, most people would have thought that it was an act to please the crowd. However, with the previous example, while there were still some doubters, more people began to believe the news.
As a result, more and more people came to the Beauty Pill. It did not take long for countless experts to pay a huge sum of money to come over.
"The more, the better!"
He had been paying attention to the matter over the past few days, and he knew that Qi Ling-er was doing a good job. In fact, she was even more influential than him. With a smile, Zhang Xuan turned to Sun Qiang and asked, "How are things on your side?"
Sun Qiang replied, "Reporting to Young Master, the renovations for the hundred shops have been completed. General Zhuo Feng has also given me the God Essence Pills, and there are more than three million of them. I have also prepared the jade bottles that Young Master asked me to buy previously. "
Over the past seven days, Zhang Xuan had been sleeping for less than four hours a day. As fatigued as he was, he had made great progress.
With Qi Ling-er selling the Beauty Pill, he did not lack funds, so it was much easier for him to find more shops. Otherwise, putting aside a hundred shops, it would have been difficult for him to open ten of them in such a short period of time.
He passed the storage ring containing the Beauty Pill and the jade bottles over to Zhang Xuan.
Zhang Xuan took a look at it, and he nodded in approval.
The Breakthrough Pill was targeted at high-end customers, the Beauty Pill was targeted at middle-tier customers, and the God Essence Pills were targeted at the most ordinary cultivators in the Firmament.
These people were only ordinary Gods, and there were many who were not even Gods. As such, the Anima of Yearning that they could generate was simply too little.
As long as he could open up this market and let everyone know of his name, the Anima of Yearning would surely surge toward him. With that, he would be able to push for a breakthrough to middle-tier Celestial God, high-tier Celestial God, and perhaps even God King.
Most likely, it was through such means that Kong shi had used the Master Teacher Pavilion to become the Heaven Subjugation Monarch, breaking the shackles of the Nine God Monarchs.
"Let's head to the square."
After asking a few more questions, Zhang Xuan confirmed that the two of them had completed all of the tasks that he had requested, and he nodded in satisfaction.
The others quickly got onto the aerial celestial beasts and headed to the square where they had agreed on earlier.
Now that everyone had been gathered, it was time for him to put on a show!
As long as he put on a good show …
Pui!
How could he say that he was putting on a show when it came to being a master teacher?
As long as he performed well, the name 'Zhang Xuan' would resound throughout the Sky of Drifting Specter and even the Firmament!
Lozosy, since I can't find you, I'll just have to stand at the highest point and let you find me!
