After practicing Qi for a thousand years, one can finally become a god!

Chapter 193 Taking Stock of the Gains [A new volume, please vote with monthly tickets!]

An unnamed mountain, in an unnamed cave.

Qi Sheng sat upright.

Beside him—

Grandma Xian.

Changsun Bing.

Phoenix Hermit.

The three women lay sideways, each with their own unique features.

They're all still asleep.

Not in a hurry.

The three of them had experienced a cataclysmic event in the small cave, and were quite frightened, so it was best to let them rest more.

When that small cave shattered, the three women were all poisoned by the flames and poisonous gas, and also by the poisonous miasma in the Dragon Prison Abyss, suffering severe poisoning.

It took Qi Sheng a lot of effort to dispel the fire poison in their bodies.

At this moment.

Qi Sheng felt refreshed and invigorated.

However, Grandma Ke, Changsun Bing, and Phoenix Hermit were all badly affected by the toxins and still needed to recover due to their lack of energy.

Qi Sheng couldn't worry about the three women for the time being.

He lifted the lid of the Ze Ding, and the demon Gun leaped out, his eyes darting around with surprise, taking a deep breath in pure enjoyment.

A moment of joy.

The demon circled around Qi Sheng.

Qi Sheng said, "Now that you're out here, you must behave yourself. If you disobey and cause trouble, I will know and skin you alive, grind your bones to dust, and banish your soul to the deepest hell, so that you will never be able to rise again!"

The demon Gun hurriedly bowed and scraped, saying, "I'll save you the trouble, I'll save you the trouble."

It's just pretending to be honest.

But the 'demon seed' within him was real. He had suffered enough pain and learned his lesson, and he truly dared not disobey.

Despite its previous ferocity, this demonic beast was actually terrified of death and pain, and quite cowardly. After Qi Sheng implanted demonic fire into it, it couldn't even hold out as long as Madam Hong. It knelt down and begged for mercy, no longer daring to challenge Qi Sheng.

Qi Sheng waved his hand: "Go ahead."

The demon Gun was overjoyed upon receiving the order.

It darted away in a flash, plunging headlong into the great river, stirring up waves and going off in style.

Qi Sheng smiled and didn't blame him.

If he had been imprisoned in that small cave for thousands of years, he would have been even more unrestrained than the demon Gun.

After the demon Gun left.

Qi Sheng stirred the cauldron with his hand and scooped out 33 portions of Gui Water Essence, as well as two thousand-year-old immortal herbs that had not yet been refined.

"Sent!"

Qi Sheng was surprised.

Ze Ding had accumulated a great deal of essence, and even though the demon Gun had scattered a lot of it over the years, a considerable amount remained.

Thirty-three portions!

That is a lifespan of 330 years.

of course.

This 'Kui Water Essence' isn't exactly heaven-defying; while a single portion of essence can indeed add ten years to one's lifespan, there are two prerequisites—

One reason is that their lifespan is coming to an end.

Two is the limit of nine.

which is:
"Only those who are nearing the end of their lives, like the Three-Flower Goddess and the Heart-Eating Old Monster, can instantly gain ten years of life by consuming and refining these things."

As for everyone else.

Like Qi Sheng.

Like the wind.

After obtaining the 'Kui Water Essence', it is acceptable to keep it for future use. However, if it is swallowed carelessly, it may not necessarily prolong life, and the effect is unknown.

Also.

"While Ze Ding's refining of 'Kui Water Essence' can indeed steal lifespan from Heaven, it has its limits. A person can consume a maximum of nine portions in their lifetime, which would add a total of ninety years to their lifespan."

It may seem like a small amount, but in reality, it can extend one's life by up to ninety years, which is more than the effect of an elixir of immortality.

Even for an ancestor-level figure, without the aid of longevity treasures such as the elixir of immortality, their lifespan is at most three hundred years. The ninety years of 'Kui Water Essence' is almost a third of the lifespan of an immortal ancestor.

It's really not bad.

"I'm young."

"I have a long life."

“I have no use for this Gui Water essence, but it is extremely tempting to use it to attract dying people like the Three Flower Goddess or Cao Sanren.”

In an instant, Qi Sheng thought of many wonderful uses for 'Gui Water Essence'.

"The Three-Flower Witch!" "You don't want to just die of old age like this, do you?"

Of course not.

What should I do?
By submitting to Qi Sheng and obeying his commands, one can enjoy the 'essence of Gui water' to prolong life; there is nothing easier than this.

it is good.

Even though the Three Flower Goddess was tough, she refused to bow down to Qi Sheng.

But what this world lacks is the 'essence of Gui water' that can prolong life, not the old and frail Three-Flower Goddess. Even if the Three-Flower Goddess is unwilling, there are Four-Flower Goddesses, Five-Flower Goddesses, and plenty of old women vying to join Qi Sheng.

The premise of everything is—

"I need to hold on tight!"

……

Can Qi Sheng hold his ground?

He thought it was a good idea.

"The 33 portions of Gui Water Essence in the Ze Ding, and the fact that the Ze Ding can continue to refine the essence of the water and generate more Gui Water Essence, can quickly make up for the weakest part of the Four Phases Sword Sect, namely the lack of experts."

It is foreseeable that there will be no shortage of high-end combat power from now on.

Also.

Regarding the strongest combat force—

Qi Sheng considers himself half a master, and the potential of the "Eight Styles of Sorrowful Clouds" is still being explored.

The demon Gun is one of them. After getting rid of the small cave heaven and the restrictions of the divine talisman, the cauldron and the earth net, when it encountered the three flower goddess, Cao Sanren and the heart-eating monster joining forces, it was no longer afraid. It was only stronger and never weaker, and it was always victorious.

Above the peak?

This is the true pinnacle.

also.

Once the Ze Ding, which has recognized Qi Sheng as its master, is unleashed, the many demons on the cauldron alone can contend with seven or eight peak figures plus twenty or thirty top experts.

That's really impressive!

As for the Ze Ding itself, in addition to suppressing floods, it can also stir up torrents and cause water disasters. Once used, it can turn thousands of miles of land into a swamp. It is an incredible weapon, just like a nuclear bomb that can wipe out the land in the past. It will never be used unless absolutely necessary and in a critical situation.

To put it another way—

"This is against the natural order!"

This is a powerful weapon; it must be used with caution.

……

Qi Sheng carefully put away the Ze Ding, but the inventory was not yet complete.

"This trip to the Prison Dragon Abyss has been very rewarding."

Besides the thirty-three portions of Gui Water Essence.

Besides the two portions of immortality elixir in the cauldron, there are a total of three immortality elixirs, plus the one Qi Sheng obtained from the old man of Tiantan.

Aside from Ze Ding itself.

Except for the demon Gun bowing his head.

In addition, it is worth mentioning that—

Dark red bead, revolving bowl, yellow spirit cauldron, red and yellow gourd, fish and dragon illusion ball, gold rope, silver rope.

This is a ritual implement.

There's more magic—

The Poisonous Torture of the Collarbone and Heart: The Lesser Asura Method, the Five Directions and Five Elements Taiyin Imprisonment and Escape Method, and the sixth level of the "Dead Man's Scripture".

Aside from the magical artifacts and spells, there were other encounters such as Madam Hong, Changsun Bing, Granny Xian, and Phoenix Hermit, but these could not be considered gains; they were merely fleeting relationships.

There's also Madam Hong, which is a real gain. Qi Sheng not only gained the Five Directions and Five Elements Taiyin Imprisoning Escape Technique and the sixth level of the "Dead Man's Scripture" from her, but also planted the Demonic Fire, giving him control over his life gate at will.

This is a gain.

correct!

one left.

Qi Sheng looked at the pocket placed to the side, and through its outline, he could vaguely see that it contained a tall and beautiful woman.

It's that thieving old hag!

The tall, beautiful woman herself was secondary; Qi Sheng had no interest in those things.

However, the old woman was quite skilled, even more so than Madam Hong. Qi Sheng was extremely interested in the subsequent techniques of the "Scripture of the Dead" that she had in her mind.

This is yet another great achievement.

And then it seems like that's it.

However, Qi Sheng had seen it on the inner wall of the Ze Ding, and as a method was deciphered, Qi Sheng was filled with mixed joy and surprise—

"The Great Treatise on the Supreme Dao of the World: The Great Treatise on Yin and Yang Correspondence, The Great Method of Returning to the Nine Peach Blossoms, The Secret of the Jade Chamber for Many Children and Many Blessings?"

Ah this?

Serious?
