Chapter 1307: A Chance

Translator: Larbre Studio  Editor: Larbre Studio

The Jinfu giant python had an enormous body, and its head was as large as a palace. It looked down at Zhang Ruochen and Qing Mo and raised its sharp claws, giving out terrifying light.

“Wait.”

There came an ancient voice.

The Jinfu giant python stopped moving and attacking Zhang Ruochen and Qing Mo.

A stooped old man walked out of the golden poisonous mist. He was wearing a white robe with wrinkles all over his face. The hair on the top of his head was completely gone, and the rest was braided.

Gu Songzi had deep-set eyes, and his eyeballs were small like soybeans. He reached out his hand and grabbed the ancient yellow jade in Zhang Ruochen’s hand.

After looking at it for a while, Gu Songzi recalled something and snorted, “That’s who you were talking about. Why did he ask you to come here?”

Zhang Ruochen said, “To be honest, I’ve been severely injured, and all three meridians in my body have been crushed. The Crazy Alcoholic said that you might be able to heal me.”

Gu Songzi had a bad temper. He sneered, “If all your meridians have been crushed, then you’re totally screwed. There’s no need to treat you.”

“How dare you talk like this…”

Qing Mo was irritated. She wanted to argue with him, yet she was stopped by Zhang Ruochen.

He wanted help from Gu Songzi, so he had to be very humble. Besides, he was already mentally prepared for the fact that it would be difficult to get along with someone like Gu Songzi, who had been secluding himself for hundreds of years.

Zhang Ruochen held his fists together and said, ‘If even you can’t heal my meridians, then I have to go somewhere else to have a try.”

“Haha, you’re too naïve. If I can’t reconnect your meridians, then no one in the world is able to do that.” Gu Songzi strolled his beard and spoke with pride.

Zhang Ruochen had hope and couldn’t help looking pleased. He said, “That means you can help me reconnect my meridians?”

Gu Songzi didn’t answer the question directly. He said, “Even if I can do that, why would I help you?”

Zhang Ruochen said, “The Crazy Alcoholic said you guys are confidants…”

Gu Songzi stopped Zhang Ruochen from talking and said, “He only told you part of the story. We used to be confidants, but now, he doesn’t even dare come see me himself.”

Zhang Ruochen’s heart skipped a beat as he reckoned he’d been tricked by the Crazy Alcoholic.

Gu Songzi said, “If someone else had trespassed in my place, he would be dead already. Lucky for you, I’m not without empathy. I’ll give you a chance as I used to be friends with the Crazy Alcoholic.”

Zhang Ruochen said, “What chance?”

“Xianji Mountain used to be the headquarters of Xianji Sect, the dominating power of the north during the ancient times. Xianji Sect was famous for its pills, and it planted countless scarce saint pills. That catastrophe during the end of the ancient times annihilated Xianji Sect, but there were still some saint pills remaining,” Gu Songzi said.

Zhang Ruochen said, “Saint pills that survived until today from the ancient times?”

Gu Songzi nodded, and his eyes gleamed.

Normally, a saint pill matured after growing for ten thousand years. It’d been a hundred thousand years since the end of the ancient times. If there were some saint pills that had survived till now, they were definitely invaluable and would be craved by creatures at the state of saint.

“If you can get one for me, I’ll definitely help you reconnect your meridians.”

Gu Songzi had been staying in Xianji Mountain for a hundred thousand years, yet even he had failed to get a saint pill that was a hundred thousand years old, which meant either those saint pills were growing in immensely dangerous places, or there were some other unknown reasons.

Zhang Ruochen didn’t say yes immediately. He thought for a while and said, “If even you can’t get the pills, who am I to get them?”

Gu Songzi shook his head and said, “I do have great mind power, however, I devoted my time to pill inscriptions. I might not be as powerful as the girl beside you. Only those with great strength and luck can get a saint pill that’s a hundred thousand years old.”

Zhang Ruochen said, “If you promise to heal me after I get you the saint pills, I can go have a try.”

Gu Songzi was a bit irritated. “Do you really think I need to trick someone whose mind power is only at level fifty-three?”

Zhang Ruochen’s mind power was already at level fifty-three, yet he was still looked down upon?

If someone else said so, Zhang Ruochen would think he was too arrogant, yet he was okay with a pill saint saying this.

Even for the weakest pill saints, their mind power had reached level fifty-five.

Zhang Ruochen asked, “Who are you?”

“The Crazy Alcoholic didn’t tell you who I am?”

Gu Songzi was a bit surprised, then he smiled and said, “He didn’t tell you who he is either, did he?”

Zhang Ruochen shook his head and said, “A hedge between keeps gentlemen’s friends green. I don’t need to know that much. You don’t know who I am either.”

Go Songzi wasn’t interested in Zhang Ruochen’s identity at all. He smirked. “Gentlemen? He’s no gentleman. He’s a coward.”

He then said, “Actually, I don’t think you’re strong enough to get a saint pill that’s a hundred thousand years old. I just want you to have a try for fun.”

And then, Gu Songzi flew to the top of the head of Jinfu giant python, flying toward the forest. He didn’t even turn around. “Youngster, it’s not too late to opt out.”

Qing Mo murmured, “My lord, that elder must be afraid of something, which is why he doesn’t go take the saint pills himself and is asking us to do the bidding for him. Don’t be tricked by him.”

Zhang Ruochen walked forward and said, “I don’t have any other options. I have to fight for it even if there’s only a slight chance. I don’t have much time left.”

“What do you mean by that?” Qing Mo asked curiously.

“Nothing.”

There were some secrets that Zhang Ruochen refused to reveal.

There were two more cracks on the Universe Spiritual Map in his lower abdomen.

If Zhang Ruochen’s body couldn’t fully recover before the Universe Spiritual Map completely cracked, then his body wouldn’t be able to withhold the Universe World.

If he couldn’t withhold it, then he would die.

The threat of death forced Zhang Ruochen to seize every chance he had, but he refused to tell Qing Mo and Huang Yanchen that.

After a long silence, Zhang Ruochen said, “Gu Songzi and I are only strangers. I need to give him something back if I want him to reconnect my meridians.”

“What if he breaks his promise after we help him acquire a saint pill that’s a hundred thousand years old?” Qing Mo said.

“That’s his problem. If he’s a liar, then I don’t need to be polite to him anymore.” Zhang Ruochen had his own principles.

Zhang Ruochen wouldn’t turn to other people for help if he could solve his own problems. However, if he had to, he would ask some powerful beings to solve his trouble.

If Zhang Ruochen asked, it was easy to deal with Gu Songzi.

Zhang Ruochen asked Qing Mo, “You’re a Qing Mo Saint Vine that’s been growing for more than forty thousand years, and you can turn into human shape and have harnessed such cultivation. Do you reckon those saint pills that have been grown for a hundred thousand years can also turn into human forms?”

“I’m not sure.”

Qing Mo shook her head and said, “There’re lots of certainties when it comes to refining and shape-changing in plant type creatures. Normally, a saint pill that’s ten thousand years old has some basic intelligence. If it has a human being to guide it, the saint pill can begin refining itself and become stronger. It can only turn into human form after reaching a certain level of strength.

“Aside from some special plant creatures, most of the plants spend a long time refining and improving themselves. It might take them tens of thousands of years to match hundreds of years of a human’s refining.”

Zhang Ruochen said, “You’re not slow in refining.”

“I only got faster after I turned into human form. When I was still a plant, I refined very slowly. I couldn’t even feel that I was becoming stronger,” Qing Mo pouted and said.

Zhang Ruochen said, ‘Will all the plants experience a surge in refining efficiency after turning into a human shape?”

“Not necessarily. I’m just different from other plants,” Qing Mo said.

Zhang Ruochen wanted to know more about plant type creatures. He kept asking, “How long will it take for plants to refine human forms?”

“I can’t say for sure. Some of the plants are pretty smart, so it’ll only take them dozens of years to refine human forms, however, some aren’t that sharp, and it might take them more than a hundred thousand years to refine human shapes. Princess once told me that I’m the not-so-sharp type, but I am lucky enough to be ahead of other conventional plants,” Qing Mo said.

Zhang Ruochen smiled and said, “Are you saying a saint pill with intelligence isn’t a threat as long as no human beings guide it?”

“That’s it.” Qing Mo nodded.

Zhang Ruochen stopped asking questions as he reckoned he wouldn’t get more valuable information from Qing Mo.

Jinfu giant python only stopped after arriving at the edge of a lake. It kept its head down, and then, Gu Songzi walked down from the top of its head.

“This is called Yuan Lake, and the island at the center is called Wuyuan Island. A famous being used to live on the island during the ancient times. He was called Wuyuan Supreme Saint. Perhaps you haven’t heard of him before, but he was ranked top three on the alchemist list. Countless alchemists regarded him as their ancestral teacher, calling him medicinal saint, pill ancestor. They worshipped his statue every day. Hua Divine Pill was created by him.”

Gu Songzi couldn’t help admiring the supreme saint, however, when he looked to the island at the center, he was sort of intimidated.
