"why why!"
The voice of unwillingness echoed in Yuxi Palace. Shangluo remembered that Phaethon had also struggled so desperately.
[Gulu gulu. They are really like...GuluGulu. ] Apollonia put her head over her head and muttered, then dived down again.
Daozu waited for a while, waiting for Helios to quote. However, Helios had already vomited blood and fell to the ground, and he could no longer bid.
"Buzz." A chime sound came from the inner room, and Zhu Xianen, who had been waiting next to him, popped up in response:
"What is the emperor's order?"
[Open the furnace and light a fire. 】
"Yes." Zhu Xianxian rolled up his sleeves. He has been waiting for a long time. He doesn't know these people and it's hard to talk to them. Now he has finally reached his professional field.
Walking to the front of the alchemy furnace, he knocked three times on the mouth of the furnace. The furnace opened wide and red fire came out of the alchemy furnace. Zhu Xianfen first took the tongs and calmly took out a few crucibles and a few small dolls from them, and put them aside first.
[So, Shangluo. 】 Daozu shouted.
"Yes, please speak."
[He is not good anymore, I will arrange the rest. One code equals another, the Foundation Establishment Pill belongs to the Foundation Establishment Pill, and in addition to the Foundation Establishment Pill, he used the life elixir in exchange for her daughter's life. How about accepting both? 】
"Ah, I didn't want to die in the first place. What's the point of wanting her life?"
[Well, then everything will be fine. 】
For some reason, Shangluo suddenly wanted to say something: This is a reliable old man. I have seen many reliable adults, but this one is doubly reliable. Even this kind of thing can be ended.
The pool of golden divine blood on the ground made his scalp tingle. If Daozu wasn't here, he didn't know what to do - of course, if he didn't care, he would just take it and leave. But everyone here is a civilized and decent person, and this is not a relationship between hunter and prey. You still have to live your life, and you have to start things well and finish them well in order to achieve full success.
He saw Daozu instructing Zhu Xianfen to operate the alchemy furnace and throw the Sun God's Spear into it together with the still bleeding Divine Machine. Less than ten minutes later, he vaguely heard a "ding" sound and the stove turned on.
Zhu Xianfen used fire pliers to pull out the Sun God's Spear. The operation was simple and quick.
Heaven and earth are furnaces, creation is work; Yin and Yang are charcoal, and all things are copper.
If you think about it carefully, this is actually a terrible thing. Although the "real Helios" was weakened by displaying limited emotions, his person remained that of a god, the god of the Romans. The magical heart that he spit out with all his heart and blood could actually be thrown into the furnace for refining. No rituals, no incantations required. There seems to be the power of heaven and earth inside that furnace, and it can be refined just by throwing it in.
When I took the Spear of the Sun back from Zhu Xianfen, it was still warm.
Shangluo weighed it, nothing had changed, but everything seemed to have changed - the Sun God's Spear had a solid feel, neither light nor heavy. This artifact no longer seemed to be resisting him, and was even beating eagerly in his hand.
"Has this been refined?"
【Um. He gave the golden elixir to you. Whether you eat it or not, it is yours. I will first use the golden elixir and magic weapon to help you refine your natal magic weapon, and you can separate it later if you need it. 】
"Ah, thank you Daozu."
[In addition, it originally took at least ninety-nine and eighty-one days to refine, but there are still two lives here. I will help you use the technique of moving the universe to save you time. It works now. 】
"How to use this?"
【The trouble should end it. Use this spear to poke the stone statue. Just be prepared and it will be bright - just let the emperor take care of the rest, don't worry. The monarch, ministers and envoys all have the four herbs, and building the foundation is a matter of course. 】
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Your Envoy?"
[It seems you haven’t discovered it yet. I am the natal golden elixir just now, Zuo is the magic sword in your hand, and the envoy is naturally the envoy of Huiming. Envoy of wisdom? 】
【Ah there! ] When the name was called, Apollonia immediately came out and said, [Ah, sorry, I was distracted just now. 】
【Are you still getting used to living here? 】
[Yeah, yeah, it’s much better than my home. I don't want to go anywhere. 】Apolonia is as well-behaved as she is when she sees her gourd baby and her grandpa.
【Used to it. You must pay close attention to your homework - so this is the Wisdom Envoy. She also has the title of practical professor with me. In the future, when heaven is opened, she will also have a share of heaven and earth. 】
"Ah, so that's it. Where is Jun?"
[Of course it’s you. Didn't Shang Buyuan tell you? 】
When it comes to Shang Bufan, the "old Shang" who single-handedly brought him up, Shangluo really thought about it carefully.
"No, he didn't say that."
[I don’t need to say more about human relations. You are the exquisite heart of the seven orifices that was born and raised by heaven and earth, and you don't need to rely on other people's 'native elixirs'. After all, the Sunborn's golden elixir is his destiny. If you use it, your two lives will be tied together. Although it can help you make rapid progress, it will not be beneficial in the long run. And the Foundation Establishment Pill you have trained yourself is the real 'Jun'. Although ministers, assistants, and envoys are all important, no one can help you with the medicine of "lord". To make iron, you need to be strong yourself. As for how you got this exquisite heart with seven orifices, it has nothing to do with the current matter. If you have the chance, go and ask the businessman yourself. 】
"So that's it. Thank you Daozu." Indeed, Helios's "golden elixir" seems to be extremely powerful, much more powerful than Apollonia. And Shangluo really has the desire to eat that "golden elixir".
But when I saw Apollonia, she had no appetite at all, and felt that eating would do no good and would cause stomach upset. After all, this guy is quite troublesome. He is already very noisy even if he doesn't eat. It's okay if he eats it. I'm afraid he won't have a concert in his stomach.
But what Daozu said is to consider the long term. Cultivating the Tao is one's own Tao, rather than eating the exhaust of others. For long-term planning, you still have to take one step at a time and build your own foundation first.
[Although your golden elixir is not of great use now, it is only because it is not mature and the time has not come yet. After building the foundation, you can slowly cultivate that golden elixir. It will be a rare fairy fate. After all, becoming a heavenly being is only the beginning, and becoming an immortal is considered to be 'the way'. Of course, your starting point is very good. It is a spiritual base where the king, ministers and envoys are all at once, and they are all immortals. The golden elixir Xu Fu refined for the First Emperor was nothing more than that. Well, take it easy for the rest. 】
Zhu Xianfen added: "After all, whether a breakthrough can be made is decided before the breakthrough. So, Shangluo, when will you start? I'll find a place to hide first. This one really needs to be hidden, or it might explode. For a moment, please close your eyes anyway."
"Now?"
"Now then. Wait a moment, I'll go find cover. It's counting down! 5, 4, 3, 2, 1!"
Its daybreak.
No, it's dark.
Shangluo opened his eyes in the darkness and couldn't remember clearly what happened before. There was a bright light above the head, surrounded by a thick liquid that seemed to smell like carrots.
In the water yourself? I panicked for a second, but I didn't feel any suffocation. The abundant spiritual liquid soaked him in, leaving him without any discomfort.
"Huh? Is there any movement?" Zhu Xianfen's voice came from outside, "Shangluo, are you awake?"
"Grrrrrrrrrrrr."
"That means you're awake. Wait, I'll help you get your clothes."
"Yeah, yeah." Unable to speak underwater, he could only nod in response. He held on to the tank and tried to stand up, but he reached out and touched his other hand.
No, it's the legs.
"Woooooooo!" He was so frightened that he stood up suddenly from the tank. Zhu Xianfen was standing next to him holding clothes.
He stretched out his hand to help Shangluo out and placed him on the small bench. Zhu Xianfen put clothes on him first. Not the original school uniform, but pajamas.
"Well, your school uniform blew up, and I asked someone to help you prepare a new one overnight. So let me tell you one piece of good news first, and another piece of good news. Which one do you want to hear first?"
"I want to hear good news."
"The good news is, it's done! No wonder it's an immortal foundation-building pill. The emperor, ministers and envoys are all immortal-level. It's just like a recommended operation. It's just an operation with anesthesia. The operation... oh no, the foundation-building pill was very successful. You'll know it just by looking in the mirror. .”
Zhu Xianfen handed Shangluo a mirror and asked him to look at it——
hair. Shangluo saw his hair at a glance.
His hair turned white. But it's not the silvery white color of old age, nor the yellowish white color. Instead, it is an almost transparent cold white, with a gentle halo, and even a faint purple sheen.
"hair!"
"The hair of a heavenly being. If you look carefully, there are also scarlet pupils. This is a symbol of a heavenly being. Seeing this hair color and eye color means that the foundation building is successful. Life, old age, illness and death have nothing to do with you. What you have to worry about There are only five degenerates of heaven and humans. Well, it’s really enviable, so I have to hurry up.”
"Are other heavenly beings like this too?"
"Isn't it? Uh-huh!" Zhu Xianfen remembered, "Have you met Senior Fu Yuanshan?"
"Yeah, his hair is black."
"He dyed his hair to earn money. His pupils are normal black because he wears contact lenses."
"That's it." Shangluo touched his hair.
The quality of my hair is surprisingly good, it won't fall down no matter how much I pull it, and it's as soft as the skin I just touched.
"By the way! Who was in the tank just now! Why is there another one?"
"Ah, that's Phaethon."
"Is this a good thing?"
"No, she is incidental."
"Mingzun, you have given her the ultimate punishment. She is no longer a demigod. All her past efforts have been wiped out, and now she is a mortal."
Helios' voice came from the side. He hasn't left yet. He looks much better than before, but there is still a shockingly big hole in his chest. It's just that there is a piece of talisman paper pasted at the entrance of the cave. On the talisman paper, there are dense patterns that cannot be drawn by human hands. It seems to be given to him by Daozu.
"Ah, Mr. Helios? It's okay for me to call you that. Are you okay?"
"Good thing." Helios replied, "The Spear of the Sun is now yours. This is a good thing, because it can help you solve the biggest hidden danger at present. Phaethon has demonstrated the Spear of the Sun to you. How to use it?"
Shangluo nodded: "It seems to be a contract?"
"Well, you should have also seen the scene where the Romans used the lighthouse system to overwrite the origami ritual. Yes, that's what the Spear of the Sun is for. It can be used to create rituals, rules, and standards for both. For folding branches, you can Said, the Uncertain Golden Bough is a major threat. But now that the Spear of the Sun is in your hand, you can modify that set of rules. It’s up to you how you want to change it. For example, you can stick a sword back and change it to ‘The one who draws the sword can Challenge you to a duel' and defeat him with your invincible swordsmanship. Plus, this is my calling card."
"Business Card"
"Add a Fetion and place it next to Apollonia. I also want to ask how she is doing occasionally."
【don't want! Put it in another business card holder! 】
"Okay, another business card holder." Helios shook his head, "That's it. Apollonia, goodbye. Why don't you come out and say hello?"
[Slightly, slightly, slightly~]
"Tsk, who did you learn this from? See you next time." The limp old lion walked towards the door, with a hole in his chest and his staff in Shangluo's hand. The lonely figure gradually fades away, only for Phaethon soaking in the tank.
"Oh, how pitiful the parents in the world are. Oh, by the way, what should I do with Phaethon?"
"Please put on your pants first and thank you. My sister will be back soon, so you don't plan on serving dinner like this."
