Longevity starts from having a daughter in old age - Chapter 528

Chapter 528: Chapter 484: The Situation_1

“What is this?”

Li Youlan opened one of the boxes, and found a golden liquid inside. She could not identify it, she could only feel the pure Innate Yuan Qi inside it.

“This is Xuan Yang Holy Water, which can supplement your Innate deficiencies, and help you to break through to the Nascent Soul Stage.”

Xu Mu went on to introduce the other items, all of them were treasures that could help in breakthroughs.

“These things are too valuable, you should keep them.”

After learning the value of these items, Li Youlan immediately shook her head in refusal.

“I heard from them. If it were not for you, my friend, the Xu Family might not have been able to survive these years. Please do not be polite.” Xu Mu said.

Li Youlan shook her head again and said, “When you left back then, I promised to look after your interests. That was my duty. You’re being too formal.”

“Please accept them. I have something else I want to ask of you.”

“Say what you want without hesitation, but take these things back!” Li Youlan responded.

These items were so precious, each one enough to cause people to fight to the death over them. To be honest, all her savings were probably not enough to exchange for even one of them.

“You need to use these items and break through to the Nascent Soul Stage to help me with this matter, otherwise it might be difficult.”

“What kind of task requires someone at the Nascent Soul Stage to complete?” Li Youlan asked in surprise.

If there truly was such a task, wouldn’t it be better to find someone else to do it? Why go to such lengths to make her do it?

“I want you to assist me in selling pills.”

As he spoke, Xu Mu took out several bottles of Nascent Forming Pills he had refined.

At first, Li Youlan was puzzled, but after opening the bottle she was completely stunned.

“A Supreme Infant Shaping Pill!!! How is that possible???”

Li Youlan’s astonishment was not unwarranted.

In this continent, tier ten Pill Masters were already extremely rare, and most of these masters could only refine lower-grade or middle-grade tier ten pills. The reason was simple: there were too few medicinal ingredients, and not many chances to practice refining. Under such circumstances, it was impossible to further improve their skills.

Moreover, a tier ten Supreme Pill was practically a legend.

It was simply too difficult to create one, and many people did not have the energy to research it.

The Supreme Infant Shaping Pill that Xu Mu gave to her could be sold for an astronomical price.

Selling such a thing, indeed, required someone of the Nascent Soul Stage. Without it, one would be helpless in dealing with the possible consequences.

Furthermore, her status would also greatly increase after reaching the Nascent Soul Stage, which would make selling the pills much easier.

Of course, Xu Mu could sell the pills himself, but he still needed a partner. It’s not possible for him to take care of everything by himself.

The people in his family did have decent cultivation, but there was still a long way for them to break through to the Nascent Soul Stage. Even if Xu Mu gave these treasures to them, they wouldn’t be too confident about their chances of making a breakthrough.

The main issue was that they had not had enough mental training. On the other hand, Li Youlan did not have this worry.

“I understand now, consider this favor that I owe you!”

Although theirs was a collegial relationship, Li Youlan felt like she had gained great benefits.

Li Youlan was at a point in her cultivation where she was one step away from a breakthrough. With the assistance of a large number of treasures, she smoothly made a breakthrough to the Nascent Soul Stage.

She thus became the first among the many princes and princesses of the DaYuan Dynasty to reach the Nascent Soul Stage.

Right after her breakthrough, she was summoned back by her family and inherited the Crown Prince’s status.

Unless something unexpected occurred, there was a high probability that she would become the next Empress.

On the other hand, Xu Mu smoothly joined the Vanguard Alliance and became the tenth Vice Alliance Hierarch.

In the current state of incessant warfare, the alliance would certainly not refuse such a powerful force as him, so there were no complications.

Thanks to Xu Mu’s presence, the Xu Family instantly became one of the most top-tier families in the whole continent.

After joining the alliance, while stationed at the frontline, Xu Mu demonstrated his extraordinary Alchemy Skill. With Li Youlan’s assistance, he began to sell a large number of valuable pills.

These pills were mostly traded through a barter system.

Through this method, while he was selling pills, he could also collect a lot of valuable, scarce resources.

With these scarce resources, he was able to refine even more valuable pills.

Through constant cycles of this process, he quickly amassed a huge amount of wealth.

This profession was the most profitable, and an expert Pill Master could even rival a money printing machine.

As for Xu Mu’s alchemy skills, being called the best in the continent was not an exaggeration.

After all, he had the System with him. Even the most obscure prescription could be elevated to the Grandmaster level by him, thus producing Supreme or even beyond-top-grade pills.

If this was in the past, he certainly would not dare to sell pills in such a wild manner.

After all, ‘The tree which is peculiarly outstanding invites the wind to rive it.’

But today, with the battles between the righteous and demonic factions, his alchemical assistance was producing a constant flow of experts for the righteous path. Under such circumstances, the average cultivator didn’t dare to have ideas about him.

Of course, people from the Demonic Dao would definitely do whatever they can to kill him.

But the most important thing was his own strength.

If it weren’t for his own power at the Divinity Transformation Stage, he would not foolishly reveal his terrifying alchemy skills.

The current battle situation between the righteous and the demonic could only limit the lower-level cultivators. For those old monsters at the Divinity Transformation Stage, there was not much restraint. If he did not have equal strength, he would be constantly exploited by others.

Behind the scenes, more than one person at the Divinity Transformation Stage has tried to take advantage of him, but after ‘sparring’, they all chose to give up decisively.

Unless they were mortal enemies, individuals at their level rarely fight to the death.

Moreover, the treasures in the world did not have much appeal to them.

Because at their level, they could no longer improve, they could only enter the Earth Immortal Realm.

They fought for treasures and waged war with the Demonic Dao, only for their own Daoism. But if their own lives were threatened, they would decisively choose to give up.

This was the nature of a cultivator!

These old monsters were different from Xu Mu. They had been cultivating for countless years, their relatives and friends had long been dead for many years, and even their contemporaries were few and far between.

Mundane matters, in fact, do not affect them greatly.

This was why cultivators would often become cold hearted at the end of their cultivation.

“Fortunately, I still have family and won’t become like these old monsters, stone cold.”

With the help of the resources collected by Xu Mu, the strength of Xu family members was skyrocketing. A few had quickly reached the Nascent Soul Stage.

Once they have resolved the issue of their state of mind with the Divine Kingdom, as long as he has enough resources, even a pig could be raised to the Nascent Soul Stage, not to mention that there was not one with poor talent in their family, apart from his wives.

Thus, hundreds of years passed in a blink of an eye. The Vanguard Alliance, with the help of Xu Mu, had begun to take the initiative to attack and press forward into the depths of the Demon Gate area.

The originally lost territory had been recaptured by two-thirds, and the speed of progress was accelerating.

“What the hell is the Sect Leader doing? Those cultivators are almost at our doorstep. Why hasn’t he left seclusion?”

A dozen Nascent Soul cultivators full of Demonic Qi were gathered in a room quarrelling.
