My Cultivation Starting from Archery-Chapter 1465 - 540: King Zhenxi (Part 2)

The King of Zhenxi twitched his eyes, then forcibly suppressed his anger, and retorted, "So, Daoist, were you once a cultivator with a very high realm? Then I, the king, must see what divine skills you possess to prevent these mortals from dying before me."

Chen Sansi ignored him; he merely took out a silver needle, attempting to detoxify Ah Ji and the others, but to no avail.

"Say... beggar..."

Ah Ji struggled to grasp his palm, enduring immense pain for each word he uttered, "Don't worry about us, you... you go... in the next life, I'll... learn martial arts with you."

"There's no need for pretentious words; you've saved my life once, and it's a debt I owe, so I won't let you die now."

As Chen Sansi spoke, a golden elixir pill appeared in his palm.

Primal Elixir!

No matter who possesses it, as long as they have a spirit root, consuming this elixir pill would be akin to ascending on the spot!

But this elixir pill serves another purpose.

It can be consumed by mortals!

99% of elixir pills, due to mortal meridians being unable to bear spiritual energy, would be tantamount to poison upon consumption.

But the Primal Elixir is an exception.

It can help mortals prolong their life, detoxify all poisons, cure diseases, and even revive the dead.

Chen Sansi thought it over carefully.

This elixir pill.

It is indeed excellent.

Even for him, it's undoubtedly a great assurance.

However...

It's not absolutely necessary.

Chen Sansi relied on his qualifications, believing that even without the Primal Elixir, he could at least achieve the quasi-emperor realm in the future, albeit losing three rebirth opportunities.

But after these three rebirths, it would be impossible to breach the Immortal Emperor realm; perhaps it is also a type of limitation, not necessarily beneficial.

Given that. 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦

Why not bring out the elixir pill for a more useful purpose?

For example.

To save lives.

Save many lives!

With this thought, he hesitated no longer, gently exerting force, grinding the elixir pill into powder, then feeding a tiny portion to Ah Ji.

At the moment the elixir entered.

Ah Ji's body first stiffened, then convulsed in the pouring rain, coughing up black blood while his pores exuded a large amount of viscous liquid.

In just a few breaths, his ghastly pale face regained color, and the symptoms of poisoning completely dissipated.

Chen Sansi then fed the elixir powder to Old Man Xu and Ling Er, and they quickly recovered.

"What kind of elixir pill is this?!"

The King of Zhenxi was incredulous, "These mortals were clearly about to die!"

His choice to stand idly by while the other saved lives, not stepping forward to stop it, was because he was shocked by this elixir.

Even from over ten meters away, Zhu Liang could feel the pure spiritual energy emanating from the elixir; with his investigation skill, he could see the dazzling golden light, like a scorching sun, seemingly containing the laws of the Heavenly Dao.

He subconsciously desired this elixir pill like a fish yearning for a river.

Yet this very elixir pill turned out...

To be fed by his own hand into the mouths of mortals!

Simply a waste of nature's gifts!

"Stop!"

Unable to bear it, the King of Zhenxi lifted his pitch-black Azure Dragon Crescent Blade, "What kind of elixir pill is this, how can you waste it like this?!"

"Oh, this."

Chen Sansi glanced at the remaining elixir pill in his palm and stated, "It's called 'Primal Original Clean Energy Pill,' consumption of which can safeguard your cultivation to the quasi-emperor realm.

"Oh, I forgot, you probably don't understand what the quasi-emperor realm is.

"Though it's missing a part at present, consuming it could potentially send you to the Immortal Lord realm.

"What, do you want it?

"Then come and take it."

"Immortal Lord? Lord of Immortals?!"

The King of Zhenxi's pupils could no longer contain the desire, as he leaped over a dozen meters to stand before the white robe, his left hand wrapped in purple light turning into a demon claw, to seize the elixir pill, yet only grasping a handful of rain.

Chen Sansi, along with Ah Ji and the others, had already appeared hundreds of steps away.

"You all go first."

He said, "I'll handle this."

"Mm."

Knowing that staying would only be a burden, Ah Ji led the others away.

Watching their energetic backs, the King of Zhenxi felt unbearable heartache, "Such a great opportunity, you wasted it like this; you deserve to die, you deserve to die!!!"

"Sorry."

Chen Sansi put away the elixir pill, "Opportunities like these, I have plenty."

The King of Zhenxi was utterly enraged.

He charged like a wild beast, swinging the Azure Dragon Crescent Blade in rage, merging true power and mana together, causing the houses on both sides of the street to collapse layer by layer.

Chen Sansi easily dodged again.

"Bang—"

The long blade smashed down, shattering the earth.

The King of Zhenxi unleashed two moves, his anger dispersed, and instantly became a lot calmer; he could feel the white robe's distinctive nature, a trace of apprehension appearing on his face, "Daoist, I'll give you a chance: cooperate with me, exchange opportunities with each other, how about it?!"

Chen Sansi calmly replied, "Are you worthy?"

"How dare you be so arrogant!"

The King of Zhenxi rebuked, "I can see, perhaps you had some skills once, but now you're only in the middle stage of Qi Refinement! Hardly my opponent!

"As the saying goes, a strong dragon can't suppress a local snake.

"If Daoist continues on this path, you may die in Lianyu City for nothing!

"But if you stay to cooperate, I can help you quickly recover your cultivation and return to the cultivation world!"

Chen Sansi remained indifferent, turning a deaf ear.

The King of Zhenxi gritted his teeth, revealing his value, "I have talents! I cooperate with the Emperor of the Chen Kingdom, and all six southern states can be used for blood sacrifice! With spiritual energy scarce in the world, only a blood sacrifice can help you quickly recover!"

Upon hearing this, Chen Sansi's previously expressionless face finally showed emotion, extreme disgust, "Zhu Liang! You are an Aliased King of Great Tang, a Great General of the border city, supported by the people of the world, meant to protect the people and guard the border. But you? You are collaborating with the enemy and committing treason, sealing the city and using people within to concoct poison, utterly vicious!"

"Treason?!"

The King of Zhenxi laughed coldly, "Do you know what I've experienced all my life?!

"Since childhood, I've followed the current Emperor, shielding him from countless assassination attempts, assisting him to ascend to the throne!

"Afterward, I endured endless battles, risking life and limb, helping him repel enemy armies countless times, stabilizing the court!

"Later, I've guarded the border for twenty years, allowing Great Tang to thrive, nearly becoming a first-rate powerhouse!

"Now the Emperor?!

"He feels my achievements are threatening and fears my usurpation, killing many gifted offspring, poisoning me with a deadly illness, plotting against my life!"

His only hidden offspring, that young knight, also died at the hands of the white robe.

"Such an Emperor!

"Why on earth should I make my life miserable for him?!

"I possess a spirit root, meant for an unparalleled Immortal Path; how could I be trapped in the mortal world, a frog in a well all my life!!!"

Listening to the lengthy monologue, Chen Sansi shook his head, "This isn't a reason."

"Not enough yet?!"

The King of Zhenxi's eyes were about to split, "Is their cruelty not enough for me?!"

"You know."

Chen Sansi's face was solid as water, his voice deep, "Someone once had similar experiences as you; yet, even to his death, never thought of harming the innocent to compensate himself. On the contrary, he never forgot why he wore armor and took up weapons; even to the last moment of life, he sacrificed himself for the world's greater good!"

"Absurd!"

The King of Zhenxi's visage contorted, "How could the world have such a person!"

"Listen clearly!"

Chen Sansi pronounced, word by word, his voice echoing like thunder, "His name is Sun—Xiang—zong!"

Sun Xiangzong!

The King of Zhenxi trembled in his heart.

He had never heard that name, refuting, "Then he's just a fool!"

"The fool is you! Your enemy has always been the Emperor stepping on you, not the people who finance and feed you!

"You fool!

"Prepare to die!"
