Chapter 412 - Giving Out Immortal Contest Pills (2/2)
“Forget it. Fellow Immortals, don’t forget that we are here to attend the Immortal Gathering and drink the immortal spring together. The spring disappears in one hour. Everyone, don’t forget about the business.” Lonemoon turned the flute in his hand and said to Yu Cang who was closest to him. “Country emperor Yu, is that right?”
How would Yu Cang dare to oppose him any more? He was really scared by the suppression just now, and the bold look had long gone from him. Though the suppression was no longer there, he still felt his legs weak. He hurried to cup his fists and say, “Yes… yes. Fellow Immortal is right.”
“I know just as well that all of you are so concerned about the position of the Emperor because of your care for Bo Sea.” Lonemoon glanced at the crowd and said with a patient and concerned expression. “But it is, after all, only a title. We have never taken it to heart. Us immortal cultivators should work hard to improve our cultivation. That is the way.”
Everyone started agreeing, cold sweat over their foreheads.
“Rest assured that both Lan Hua and Yi Qing care in their hearts for the immortals of Bo Sea.” Lonemoon’s eyes narrowed, as he continued. “That’s why we invite the immortals here to re-hold Bo Sea Immortal Gathering and drink the spring together to improve cultivation. Furthermore, the Emperors considered that the Immortal Gatherings have stopped for several years and a good opportunity was lost, and found a way of amendment for everyone early on.”
With that said, he directly produced a bottle and opened it. In an instant, a few waves of light flashed and several dozens of elixirs flew out, went one round in the air like they had gone alive, and then floated in front of them. Faint golden color showed over that elixir, and the clear fragrance of elixirs swept over them. The immortals present felt their spirits lifted, and the immortal qi surrounding them also became unbelievably thick. Even the water from the immortal spring started moving.
“These are… Immortal Contest Pills!”
Some gasped, and the whole place fell into gossip immediately.
“It’s really Immortal Contest Pills. Only that can produce such thick immortal qi!”
“I thought that elixir cannot be made without God-level immortal fire?”
“I didn’t expect there to be still Immortal Contest Pills in this world! A few dozens besides.”
Lonemoon glanced at the crowd, satisfied. “In the thousands of years in which Emperor Yi Qing was away, he had some special experiences and got some Immortal Contest Pills on occasion. This Immortal Gathering is the perfect opportunity for him to gift these pills to immortals.”
As he finished speaking, light started to shine from the eyes of everyone present. They no longer remember their ideas of provoking conflict, and looked straight at those elixirs, unable to move their eyes away.
“Only that…” The tone of Lonemoon’s voice changed. “These pills are of ordinary quality, and a great leap of cultivation level could only be achieved if it is taken by those below the cultivation of Young Emperor.”
A great leap! The immortals gasped together, and their eyes brightened even more. However, the expression of the 15 country emperors changed slightly. They had a premonition immediately. Indeed, they heard him continue,
“The number of this elixir is limited. We only have 15. And just by coincidence, there are 15 countries in Bo Sea. To be fair, let’s trouble the country emperors to choose someone to take this pill.” Lonemoon smiled with his eyes narrowed. Suddenly, remembering something, he added, “Oh yeah, this elixir should be taken right here with this immortal spring for even better effect.”
As he finished speaking, the looks of envy naturally appeared on the faces of immortals from other continents. They were only upset that they were not from Bo Sea. And the Exalted Immortals brought here by the country emperors were excited. Just now he said that it only worked on cultivation below Young Emperor, which meant that these elixirs would end up among them eventually. This was the elixirs which allowed one to have a great improvement in cultivation level, and one would reach the level of Emperor straightaway eating it. Who wouldn’t be moved?
And the expression of the country emperors actually darkened, as they understood him immediately and started spitting blood in their minds.
Immortal Contest Pills could indeed improve cultivation straight away, but it could not only be used for Exalted Immortals. The effect was merely less obvious when used by someone above Junior Emperor. He specified it to be taken by Exalted Immortals because he didn’t want to give it to THEM straight away. Yet they couldn’t openly reply that country emperors could take it as well, or they would appear greedy.
Besides, their purpose for being here was to provoke the two emperors, so to prevent accidents, each of them brought at least a dozen Exalted Immortals.
Yet each country emperor had only one of those Immortal Contest Pills. And whoever they gave it to, it would become a problem. This was no ordinary pills, but ones which could raise the cultivation directly. Who wouldn’t want it? Besides, those who could reach the level of Exalted Immortal had more or less some power behind them. Whoever they gave it to, it would provoke dissatisfaction among others.
And yet the other party specified that it was to be taken with the immortal spring, which meant telling them right out to eat it then and there. He didn’t give them any chance to bring it back and then manipulate the matter internally.
