The Emperor Lord of Southern Yue offered this grand ceremony!
If the scene in the hall were known to the outside world, it would surely stir up a tempest.
What a joke. This was none other than the Emperor Lord of the Southern Yue Immortal Kingdom. It was exceedingly rare for anyone to command such an attitude from him.
Of course!
Although this move would shock many, it was a trivial matter for Du Gu Qingcang.
After all, his daughter had awakened the incredibly powerful Nine Nether Bloodline. Compared to that, his current actions were insignificant.
"For a first meeting, you two have gifted me millions of Saint Crystals. How about this..."
As he spoke, Ye Xuan flipped his right hand, and two pills appeared. "This pill is called the [Heavenly Grade · Immortal Breaking Pill]. Its effect is to allow peak experts below the Ninth Order Immortal Lord to advance without side effects..."
Upon hearing Ye Xuan's words, Du Gu Qingcang and Lin Cangqiong's hearts trembled. They looked at the pills in their hands, which emitted an aroma they had never encountered before, with surprise.
"Heavenly Grade Immortal Breaking Pill?"
"To allow peak Immortal Lords to advance by one tier without side effects!!"
The two exchanged glances and couldn't help but lick their lips. "Such a divine object exists in this world!!"
"Heh heh, Father Emperor, Maternal Grandfather, why don't you use them now!"
Du Gu Xiaoyi chuckled. She herself had experienced the wondrous effects of the [Dao Breaking Pill] and naturally had the most authority to speak of its efficacy.
"This... alright."
After a moment of hesitation, Du Gu Qingcang and Lin Cangqiong nodded. After all, if they could break through their cultivation realms, it would be a good thing for them.
Immediately, the two of them took the [Heavenly Grade · Immortal Breaking Pill] within the great hall. The familiar scene followed as before!
However, the two of them clearly then took out millions of low-grade Saint Crystals from their spatial rings, contributing to their breakthrough.
Boom!
Boom!
As soon as the pills were consumed, Du Gu Qingcang and Lin Cangqiong's expressions changed drastically. They then became incredibly serious, with surging energy instantly filling every cell in their bodies.
"What a terrifying pill!!"
Following this, the two dared not be careless in the slightest and began to refine the [Heavenly Grade · Immortal Breaking Pill] with all their might.
Fifteen minutes!
Forty-five minutes! Two and a half hours!!
They didn't know how much time had passed, only that the aura around them continued to strengthen.
Finally...
Buzz~
Buzz~~
At a certain moment, the aura around them both strengthened. Du Gu Qingcang had broken through to the Second Order Immortal Lord, while Lin Cangqiong had advanced to the Fourth Order Immortal Lord. Clearly, there was still a significant amount of medicinal power left.
Sensing their surging momentum, Ye Xuan curved his lips. "These two are quite determined."
"Send the Buddha all the way to the West."
With that, Ye Xuan flipped his right hand, and two drops of essence blood from the Nine-Leaf Sacred Spirit Grass entered Du Gu Qingcang and Lin Cangqiong's bodies.
Boom~~~
The momentum, which had slightly weakened, now erupted explosively.
Du Gu Qingcang and Lin Cangqiong trembled, their auras surging once again. After about an hour.
Du Gu Qingcang's strength surpassed the peak of the Second Order Immortal Lord and reached the ultimate peak of the Second Order Immortal Lord. Lin Cangqiong, on the other hand, reached the peak of the Fourth Order Immortal Lord. Both had gained unprecedented benefits.
"Hoo~"
Du Gu Qingcang let out a deep breath and then opened his eyes. The first thing he did was sense his own aura, and he was utterly stunned. "Good heavens... the ultimate peak of the Second Order Immortal Lord, this!?"
With a gulp, Du Gu Qingcang swallowed. He was truly astonished by his current realm.
However, when his gaze fell upon his father-in-law, Lin Cangqiong, his pupils constricted. "Father-in-law is... peak Fourth Order Immortal Lord!!"
Clearly, although his realm had increased by one minor stage less than him, the increase in his strength was far greater than his own.
"Heh heh, peak Fourth Order Immortal Lord. Lin Cangqiong will remember this kindness from Young Friend Ye."
Undoubtedly, directly reaching the peak of the Fourth Order Immortal Lord made Lin Cangqiong feel better than ever before.
Seeing this, Feng Chen and the others guessed what their master might do next. However, if the Southern Yue Immortal Kingdom and the Nine Nether Sacred Land were to join the Profound Alliance, the scene...
Damn it, just thinking about it made them excited!
As expected!
The moment this thought arose, Ye Xuan flipped his right hand, and two porcelain bottles appeared. He then opened the two bottles, and an even more potent medicinal aroma wafted out, instantly filling every corner of the villa's hall.
"This is~!?"
Clearly, Du Gu Qingcang and Lin Cangqiong were perplexed by Ye Xuan's actions.
"Two gentlemen, are the Southern Yue Immortal Kingdom and the Nine Nether Sacred Land interested in joining the Profound Alliance?"
He went straight to the point without beating around the bush. This would yield a better effect, and indeed it did. He then looked at the two porcelain bottles. "Of course, if both sides are willing to join, the hundred [Heavenly Grade · Immortal Breaking Pills] in these two bottles will serve as a deposit."
Du Gu Qingcang, "!!!!"
Lin Cangqiong, "!!!!"
This is... good heavens!
Over a hundred [Heavenly Grade · Immortal Breaking Pills]. Were these the same pills they had used before? My heavens, there were a hundred of them, and these two bottles contained two hundred.
Gulp~
Gulp~~
Unsurprisingly, the impact of this was immense for the two of them, and they were unable to fully digest it for a while.
Du Gu Xiaoyi also heard her master's words and was shocked. Her mouth was wide open, staring at her master. My goodness, what was master trying to do? Was he trying to get the Southern Yue Immortal Kingdom and the Nine Nether Sacred Land to join the Profound Alliance in one go?
This scale... cough, cough, it's simply astonishing!
However, if it were truly accomplished, it would be quite interesting.
But she didn't know if her father Emperor and maternal grandfather would agree. Of course, the benefits her master offered were substantial. A hundred [Heavenly Grade · Immortal Breaking Pills]! This would definitely boost the strength of the Southern Yue Immortal Kingdom and the Nine Nether Sacred Land significantly.
Seeing their silence, Ye Xuan spoke again. Then, with a flip of his right hand, he took out another, slightly larger, porcelain bottle. "In addition, here are 500 [Mysterious Grade · Immortal Breaking Pills]. Their effect is slightly weaker than the [Heavenly Grade · Immortal Breaking Pills] and are for the Immortal Elder level..."
As his voice fell, a deathly silence descended upon the villa's hall.
One breath!
Five breaths! Ten breaths!!
Thus, after thirty breaths, Du Gu Qingcang and Lin Cangqiong, the father-in-law and son-in-law, exchanged glances, took a deep breath, and said, "Good!"
"The Southern Yue Immortal Kingdom agrees to join the Profound Alliance!"
"The Nine Nether Sacred Land agrees to join the Profound Alliance!"
Du Gu Qingcang and Lin Cangqiong took a deep breath. They understood what these pills meant. Without these pills, their development would definitely lag behind for tens of thousands of years, perhaps even more.
They, who had weathered countless storms, clearly understood the pros and cons.
Moreover!
This opportunity... might only come once in their lives!!
They didn't want to miss it, and they couldn't afford to miss it, unless they wanted to become sinners for eternity in their respective factions!!
Upon hearing this, Feng Chen and the others were all shaken. As expected, their master's strategy of using temptation was irresistible. Of course, Du Gu Xiaoyi was the most excited. At this moment, she was so excited she could almost jump up. "Amazing, my master!!"
