Chapter 204 Grandmaster, This Is As Far As I Can Help You
“General Dongmu, you must send this memorial to His Majesty. You must not leave it behind or let others know.”
In the Sea G.o.d Temple on the day before the painting appraisal of Little Qiong Peak, Li Changshou reminded the Heavenly Courts Express courier in front of him.
The memorial mentioned the arrangements of the Western Sect. It was important and could not be faulted.
Li Changshou pondered for a while before deciding to tell the Jade Emperor about the details. He also hinted to the Jade Emperor that he had already devised a scheme and planted a p.a.w.n in the Western Sect.
Moreover, that hidden chess p.a.w.n could serve the Jade Emperor in the future…
It was the first time that General Dongmu saw the Sea G.o.d’s serious expression. He did not dare to be careless. He solemnly agreed and sealed the scroll and memorial repeatedly. After settling the important matters, Li Changshou smiled and changed the topic. Suddenly… he became frivolous.
“General Dongmu… I have a small matter that I would like to trouble you to investigate.”
General Dongmu’s eyes lit up. He immediately took half a step forward. He almost could not control himself and pulled the hand of the Sea G.o.d in front of him.
The Sea G.o.d had invited him!
If he had a request for the Heavenly Courts, the Jade Emperor had instructed them long ago to give whatever they could!
If there were any personal matters, General Dongmu could not wait to return the favor that he owed the Sea G.o.d and improve his relations.h.i.+p with the Sea G.o.d! “Speak! Sea G.o.d, quickly tell me! Why not? Your Sea G.o.d’s matter is my business!”
Why are you so excited…
Li Changshou calmed himself down and smiled. “Actually, I’ve been studying two types of pills recently. I’ve searched through the manuals of Ren School, but there are no records of these two types of pills General Dongmu, have you ever heard of any spirit herbs that could have the effect of Elder Moon’s Acacia Tree? What kind of spirit herbs that are not precious has the effect of restoring an immortal body?”
Li Changshou sighed.
In fact, he only wanted to find spirit herbs that could “reconstruct an immortal body”. However, to be safe, he specially mentioned treasures like the Acacia Tree, which could easily cause people to misunderstand and be interested in them. That provided a smokescreen for him.
The existing pills that had similar effects to the Acacia Tree were the Ambition Pill and Flame of Heart. They were temporarily enough.
Upon hearing the Sea G.o.d’s words, General Dongmu was also stunned. He could not help but think for a while and quickly answered, “I have heard of a few treasures that can restore an immortal body, such as the Eight Treasures Heart Lotus in the Jade Pool. However, that lotus flower is something that the Queen Mother loves. Its effect is to revive the dead. If it’s just to restore the immortal body, it would be a little too powerful.”
Li Changshou smiled and said, “General Dongmu, I want to develop a type of medicinal pill. It’s not just one or two pills. I don’t dare to use such a valuable treasure.”
“When I send the memorial over, I will investigate and ask about it.”
General Dongmu wanted to say something but hesitated. He gave Li Changshou a meaningful smile and bowed to Li Changshou before leaving hurriedly. He must have misunderstood something, although Li Changshou had deliberately made him misunderstand something…
After leaving the Sea G.o.d Temple, General Dongmu immediately hid his tracks. After finding an empty corner, Duke Eastwood used the ‘hidden’ mystical ability that he had just cultivated over the past two years. Then, he used his immortal senses to search every corner and discovered that there were no suspicious figures within a radius of thousands of kilometers. With a whoosh, he soared into the sky and charged towards the South-Heaven Gate at full speed! The South Continent was filled with fish and dragons. It was a dangerous place in the Primordial World. General Dongmu had experienced all of that before.
If he were to run a little slower, two powerhouses might suddenly appear. They shouted before collapsing in front of him!
He would never want to experience such a thing again!
Another safe return.
When he arrived at the South-Heaven Gate, General Dongmu heaved a sigh of relief. He revealed his figure and returned to his usual calm self before flying into the Heaven Gate.
The Heavenly troops guarding the Great Barrier bowed in unison.
General Dongmu nodded and entered without saying anything.
A colorful sword was hanging above the South-Heaven Gate.
The sword was called the Evil Spirit Executioner Heavenly Sword. It was refined by the Jade Emperor using the merit of the Heavenly Courts. There were a total of five swords that were at the five Heavenly Gates, which merged with the Heavenly Courts’ array formation.
If someone pretended to be a righteous G.o.d of the Heavenly Courts and sneaked into the South-Heaven Gate, the five swords would be able to distinguish them and slash down.
Even a Golden Immortal would be severely injured there!
After entering the South-Heaven Gate and taking the Dao Enlightenment Hall, General Dongmu flew for quite a while before arriving at Lingxiao Treasure Hall.
Arriving in front of the Jade Emperor, Duke Eastwood presented Li Changshou’s memorial and stood below the platform. He lowered his head and waited for the Jade Emperor to speak.
This time, the Jade Emperor’s reaction was as expected. He laughed and praised the Sea G.o.d. Then, he sighed softly and pondered for a long time.
Every time His Majesty looked at the Sea G.o.d’s memorial, he would go through almost the same routine.
“General Dongmu,” said the white-robed young man on the platform, who was smiling. “Go to the Heavenly Court’s troops immediately and select forty thousand elite Heavenly Soldiers. You must train hard in battle formations and not slack off in the next ten years.”
“Yes!”
The Jade Emperor nodded slowly and smiled. “Did Guest Changgeng tell you anything else this time?”
General Dongmu did not hesitate and repeated the conversation he had with the Sea G.o.d.
The Jade Emperor’s attention was immediately diverted…
“The medicinal effect was similar to that of the Acacia Tree Tree? Hmm?”
The Jade Emperor raised his eyebrows slightly and revealed a look of enlightenment.
The Jade Emperor smiled and said, “Guest Changgeng is really scheming. Even if it’s a marriage between a man and a woman, he can still make a big fuss about it. He’s indeed impressive. If I can obtain this person’s help, I would really be favored by the Grand Pure One. Haha, hahaha.”
General Dongmu lowered his head and said, “Your Majesty, you really have great insights. I thought that the Sea G.o.d was refining this type of pill for his own use and hence I did not consider it deeply.”
“Guest Changgeng is not like that.” The Jade Emperor waved his hand and said, “Go and deploy the troops first. General Dongmu, you will then go to the Elder Moon Hall and give Elder Moon more merit. Let him take a Spirit Root of the Acacia Tree and give it to Guest Changgeng.”
“Yes, Sir.”
“Ah… It’s easier said than done.”
In the Pill Chamber, Li Changshou shook his head and sighed. He continued to guard the Pill Furnace and refine pills.
Li Changshou’s immortal senses captured Ling’e, who had been working on needlework for three days and two nights. She carried a few brand-new dresses and went to Grandmaster’s straw hut…
Li Changshou had personally designed the inner blouses for Ling’e to sew them carefully.
They could only be considered ordinary Dharma treasures, and their defensive effects were not good. However, they had used double the restrictions when it came to isolating the immortal senses!
It was to ensure that others could not see through the mystery of the clothes with their immortal senses and vision.
Some parts of the clothes were thicker by several layers…
Soon, a wave of admiration came from the straw hut. Jiang Lin’er immediately made her move and set up several layers of immortal power boundaries.
Li Changshou immediately retracted his immortal senses and did not offend him.
Not long after, Jiang Lin’er walked out proudly with her head held high and chest puffed out.
This time, it was not going to go smoothly…
Ling’e could not help but support her forehead with one hand. She wanted to persuade her Grandmaster to keep a low profile, but she could not bring herself to say that.
“Grandmaster, how about I make a few more for you?”
“Yes! Go! i’ll stroll around the mountain! Thank you, Little Ling’e!”
