Chapter 203: Divine Pore Essence, Produced by the Healthcare Department of Hepharm Factory Six
"Since it's like that, let's go to the third tower."
With a wave of his sleeve, Qi Yuan led the group of twenty-one towards the third tower.
The Ancient Deities were filled with anticipation and unease, eager to witness how Qi Yuan had navigated the numerous trials to reach the top of the tower and claim the treasures.
Soon, they entered the third level of the tower.
Qi Yuan addressed the group, "Please wait a moment, I'll do a quick calculation."
As Qi Yuan spoke, his eyebrows twitched rapidly.
The villagers nearby were accustomed to this sight.
However, the Ancient Deities were utterly baffled.
"Is he really telling fortunes with his eyebrows?"
"Is that even possible?"
"How could it be?"
Their worldview was once again shaken.
Initially, they had assumed that Qi Yuan was employing some profound Daoist technique or had obtained confidential information from within the tower.
But in reality, it was just like the fortune-telling with eyebrows at the entrance to the Ancestral Ground.
"Could this be the legendary 'Flying Brow Celestial Calculation' that has long been lost?" Pinehope Ancient Deity quickly immersed himself in the role of a subject, addressing Qi Yuan as 'Divine Lord' without hesitation.
The twin sister looked puzzled, "Is there such a divination method? Why haven't I heard of it?"
The other Ancient Deities also turned to Pinehope Ancient Deity, as they hadn't heard of it either.
They hoped to learn more about Qi Yuan's background through Pinehope Ancient Deity.
"It's normal that you're unaware of a long-lost divination method," Pinehope Ancient Deity replied.
"Since you know of this divination method, why don't you tell us about its origins and its power?" one of them asked.
"Ahem, I don't know anything about it either. I'm completely clueless about this divination method," Pinehope Ancient Deity said.
"What? Then how do you know about it?"
"I don't know, and I can't know."
"Hmm?"
"It's been lost for too long. How could I possibly know? I've never even heard of it!" Pinehope Ancient Deity emphasized.
The Ancient Deities in the room were left speechless.
After all that, it turned out Pinehope Ancient Deity was just making it up.
However, upon hearing it, it did sound plausible.
Given that it had been lost for so long, wasn't it normal for them to be unaware of it as well?
"Follow my movements," Qi Yuan said as he opened his eyes and began walking.
The other villagers quickly followed, striding across the spacious tower.
The Ancient Deities hurried to catch up.
Soon, they arrived at a relatively safe location.
"This place is temporarily safe. Within a ten-meter radius, you can move freely. I'll continue my calculations," Qi Yuan said.
The Ancient Deities in the area had their eyes fixed on the treasures.
"Heavenly Dragon Silk!"
"Divine Dragon Gauntlets!"
"Flame Essence Marrow!"
The small area was scattered with numerous precious treasures.
These treasures were all incredibly valuable.
Outside, one would have to fight fiercely to obtain them, but here, they were everywhere.
The Ancient Deities' eyes lit up with greed as they frantically picked up the treasures from the ground.
If not for the fear of waking the Puppet Deity, they would have even considered taking the floorboards.
"Let's go, forward!" Qi Yuan said, leading the group towards the upper levels of the tower.
Along the way, the Ancient Deities were overwhelmed with excitement, acquiring numerous rare treasures.
As they reached the upper levels, the Ancient Deities on the field breathed heavily in anticipation.
"Divine Pore Essence!"
On the table, ten vials of Divine Pore Essence were displayed.
One vial could open a Divine Aperture!
These ten vials were enough to open ten!
How could the Ancient Deities not be tempted?
This divine liquid, in the Mundane Heart Realm, was an invaluable treasure.
Although a Great Venerable had once declared that ten vials were the limit a cultivator could consume, it was still an exaggeration!
[Divine Pore Essence, produced by the Healthcare Department of Hepharm Factory Six, nurtures the healthy growth of babies.]
[Hepharm Factory Six, dedicated to nurturing babies.]
As Qi Yuan gazed upon the Divine Pore Essence, a thoughtful expression appeared on his face.
In just a few words, there was a wealth of useful information.
The mention of the 'Industrial Zone' sparked numerous associations in Qi Yuan's mind.
After entering the Ancestral Ground, Qi Yuan had noticed its anomalies.
Combining this with the current situation, the Ancestral Ground seemed like a miniature city.
The tower he had entered contained items like bathwater and firecrackers, all typical of a residential area.
There were residential and industrial zones, which seemed quite normal.
Qi Yuan thought that perhaps the subsequent towers would house the office of Hepharm Factory Six.
The Divine Pore Essence there would likely be more abundant than the mere ten vials here.
After all, there would be a greater supply there.
Moreover, the slogan 'Hepharm Factory Six, dedicated to nurturing babies' made Qi Yuan curious.
Did babies need to drink Divine Pore Essence?
Did that imply that babies were Yin Deities?
The origins of this Ancestral Ground were truly awe-inspiring.
"You are all from the Ancient One Clan. Do you know when the Ancestral Ground fell into the Mundane Heart Realm?" Qi Yuan asked.
Pinehope Ancient Deity quickly replied, "Divine Lord, it is said that when the heavens and earth of the Mundane Heart Realm first opened, the Ancestral Ground descended."
"That long ago?" Qi Yuan exclaimed in surprise, "Wouldn't the Divine Pore Essence have expired by now?"
Qi Yuan's thoughts had swiftly shifted from the origins of the Ancient One Clan to the expiration of the essence.
This left the villagers in the room perplexed.
"So, are the newborns of your Ancient One Clan very powerful?"
The Divine Pore Essence seemed akin to infant nutritional supplements.
"When ordinary clan members are born, they are roughly at the Foundation Establishment stage, which is considered average in the Mundane Heart Realm," Pinehope Ancient Deity further explained.
"If they are at the Foundation Establishment stage at birth, then this oral liquid isn't meant for you," Qi Yuan mused.
According to the previous statements of the Ancient One Clan, they originated from beyond the realm and were not natives of the Mundane Heart Realm.
However, based on the current information, it was clear that the Ancient One Clan was indeed native to the realm.
Their newborns were only at the Foundation Establishment stage and couldn't consume Divine Pore Essence.
Perhaps the Ancient One Clan had some connection with the Ancestral Ground and was trying to establish a relationship by claiming to be outsiders.
"So, does each race have a different starting point?" Qi Yuan muttered.
In the Waveheart Realm, everyone started as ordinary people.
In the Mundane Heart Realm, the starting point was the Foundation Establishment stage.
And in this so-called Ancestral Ground, the starting point seemed to be the Yin Deity stage.
This was truly terrifying.
"Let's go, towards Hepharm Factory Six, towards the True Deity Path," Qi Yuan said as he collected the Divine Pore Essence and led the group out the window, continuing their journey.
Qi Yuan decided to accelerate his progress.
After all, the residential area had many good things, but he was heading for the industrial zone.
There would be mass-produced goods there, and he might even stumble upon a warehouse, leading to a significant windfall.
At the same time, within the Ancestral Ground.
The burly black-haired man was covered in wounds, his eyes filled with excited smiles.
"Heavenly Destiny is with me!"
"So exhilarating!"
He found two shattered Divine Pore Essence bottles in an alloy crate.
At this moment, he poured the Divine Pore Essence into his mouth, and his Divine Apertures began to condense within his body.
In just a hundred breaths, he had condensed two Divine Apertures.
"The harvest this time is much better than before!"
The burly man was exhilarated.
This time, following She Lao, he had even startled She Lao.
Watching She Lao ignite his Divine Aperture and run, he was also stunned, and in the end, he couldn't bear to ignite his own Divine Aperture and catch up.
At the Yin Deity stage, it was either Skywalking First Step or Heaven Stepping Seven Steps.
In fact, the difference in speed and strength wasn't too significant, or you could say they were almost equal.
The difference between Skywalking First Step and Sky Striding Third Step lay in the Divine Apertures, the utilization, and the quantity of Divine Energy.
The Great Venerables, on the other hand, possessed Divine Domains, which could effortlessly overpower Skywalking First Step Yin Deities.
The burly man rushed into the Ancestral Ground, feeling a little dazed.
He also awakened a Puppet Deity, and after a fierce battle, he narrowly escaped.
With two bottles of Divine Pore Essence, how could he not be excited?
"That kid's fortune-telling ability is indeed a bit impressive."
He lay down in a comfortable position, feeling utterly content.
At his level, it took nearly a thousand years to open a single Divine Aperture.
Opening two in a row made him feel incredibly proud.
"If I run into Yan Xi, Pinehope, or Hu Ha, this time I can show off a little."
"Now, they're probably still running for their lives somewhere!"
The burly man was thrilled.
He was eager to meet those familiar faces and show off.
For Ancient Deities, boasting to their peers after a long time was a joyful occasion.
Another two hours passed.
Qi Yuan entered a tall tower.
His eyes were calm.
The Ancient Deities behind him, one by one, had curious expressions.
"This air here is not good, everyone wear a mask, or you'll get sick," Qi Yuan reminded them.
He saw that the air here contained many tiny particles, and even True Deities would fall ill if they breathed them in.
All the subjects immediately used their Daoist techniques to cover their mouths and noses.
They had come to understand Qi Yuan's peculiar words.
At this moment, Qi Yuan turned his gaze towards Yan Xi Venerable.
Yan Xi Venerable was a bit dazed, "Divine Lord, what's wrong?"
"Your fetish is a bit strange," Qi Yuan said, looking at Yan Xi Venerable with golden gossamer on his head.
Yan Xi Venerable's confusion deepened.
The others were also curious, wondering what Qi Yuan meant.
"Putting underwear on your head, are you some kind of pervert?
No, you'real: "No, you're even more perverted than a pervert, what you're wearing is... the sexy version." Qi Yuan waved his hand dismissively.
Yan Xi Venerable's outfit, if worn on Blue Star, would definitely be considered perverted.
"Underwear? Sexy?" Yan Xi Venerable touched the delicate golden gossamer, confusion flashing through his mind.
This... is this underwear?
The other Ancient Deities hadn't thought of it that way.
But when Qi Yuan said it, they looked at Yan Xi Venerable's head, and the more they looked, the more it seemed like underwear.
"Pfft..." The twin sister couldn't hold back her laughter.
The other Ancient Deities, seeing this, burst into laughter as well.
"This is actually underwear!"
"Yan Xi Venerable... too funny!"
"If the Divine Lord says it's underwear, then it must be underwear without a doubt!"
The Ancient Deities and villagers on the scene couldn't help but burst into laughter.
Yan Xi Venerable's face turned red with embarrassment, and he removed the golden gossamer.
He had originally wanted to throw it away, but then he couldn't bear to part with it, so he put it back into his storage bag.
He had once been invincible!
"Let's go, this is the Hepharm Factory Six, hope the harvest is good." Qi Yuan waved his hand, leading the group inside.
He finally arrived at the office of Hepharm Factory Six.
"Hepharm Factory Six?" The other Ancient Deities were a bit puzzled but not entirely surprised.
The tall tower of Hepharm Factory Six was indeed a bit different from the other towers.
The other towers were built upwards.
This tower, however, was built downwards.
Walking inside the tower, Qi Yuan's eyes lit up with curiosity.
"As expected of a medicine seller, the Puppet Deities here even have Sky Treading Sixth Step."
Here, Qi Yuan had already discovered at least seven Puppet Deities of the Great Venerable level hiding.
Moreover, the deeper they went, the more Puppet Deities there were.
"No wonder the Ancestral Ground has been able to exist for so long." Qi Yuan murmured.
Indeed, danger lurked everywhere here.
Earlier, Qi Yuan had encountered a trash can in the shape of an alloy crate, and inside it were three Sky Treading Seventh Step Great Venerables.
It was almost unimaginable.
Qi Yuan didn't dare to provoke these Puppet Deities.
Qi Yuan even felt that the combined might of all forces during their peak in the Mundane Heart World would be unable to breach the Ancestral Ground.
No wonder so many tall towers still stood tall at this moment, with treasures still within.
Coming to the Ancestral Ground this time was the right decision.
With so many treasures, if his subjects used them, it was unimaginable!
The other Ancient Deities were filled with anticipation.
After all, no matter where they went, Qi Yuan seemed to take it all in his stride, as if he didn't value those treasures.
But here, Qi Yuan's behavior was different from other places.
He, too, was filled with anticipation.
"This door is a bit heavy, a few of you Ancient Deities, come and open it."
At this moment, Qi Yuan stopped in front of a large door.
The door was made entirely of a special alloy.
It was incredibly heavy.
"I'll do it!" The man with a mole on his eyebrow stepped forward and tugged at the door.
But even with his strength, the door didn't budge.
"Four more," Qi Yuan said, unable to hold back upon seeing this.
He couldn't help but marvel at his own weakness, unable to even open a door.
Three more Ancient Deities stepped forward to help, and together, they exerted their strength.
"Heave!"
"Ho!"
Boom!
The alloy door finally opened.
Instantly, the breathing of all the Ancient Deities quickened.
They stared at the scene before them, their faces filled with disbelief.
"Divine Pore Essence!"
"Pain Relief Pills!"
"Clear Spirit Powder!"
In the spacious room, countless treasures filled every inch of space, each encased within transparent glass boxes.
The sheer number of treasures seemed infinite, leaving everyone's hearts trembling.
The Divine Pore Essence alone, with ten vials given to each Ancient Deity from the Mundane Heart World, would still leave an abundant surplus.
Moreover, various other precious treasures were also on display, each more valuable than the last.
Items for cultivation enhancement, healing, and curing illnesses were all present, catering to every need.
Qi Yuan, at this moment, finally cracked a smile, "With such a collection, I can barely maintain my status."
He picked up numerous vials of Divine Pore Essence and other treasures.
"Each person can take ten vials of Divine Pore Essence, and two of the other treasures," Qi Yuan casually instructed.
The Ancient Deities present had eyes filled with envy.
Pinehope Ancient Deity, gazing at Qi Yuan, had eyes brimming with emotion, "Divine Lord, I've decided to follow you from now on!"
Pinehope Ancient Deity's words meant he was willing to become Qi Yuan's subject without any time limit.
"Alright, let's go," Qi Yuan responded without any emotional stirrings.
The other Ancient Deities, while grateful, were also filled with excitement.
However, they didn't have the same condition as Qi Yuan, and losing their freedom for the rest of their lives was a decision they couldn't make.
At this moment, all the Ancient Deities present followed Qi Yuan's instructions, taking the Divine Pore Essence and other treasures.
They dared not take more than their share.
After obtaining the Divine Pore Essence, the Ancient Deities couldn't wait to consume it.
Instantly, breakthroughs occurred one after another among the Ancient Deities, creating an incredibly exaggerated scene.
Joyful Arhat, in a flash, broke through to Sky Treading Second Step.
"I've finally reached Sky Treading Second Step!" exclaimed one of the Ancient Deities with joy.
"I never imagined I'd reach the late stage of Sky Treading Second Step and have a chance to enter Sky Treading Third Step!" Twin Elder Sister marveled.
The atmosphere was filled with happiness and excitement, their minds overwhelmed with elation.
It was as if a regular Blue Star worker earning five thousand a month had suddenly received a hundred years' worth of salary.
At this moment, Zhao Zun, who had not yet entered the True Deity realm, held the Divine Pore Essence with envy.
Unfortunately, he couldn't use these treasures until he reached the True Deity realm.
He felt intense jealousy and a sense of agitation in his heart.
He wondered when he would be able to break through to the True Deity realm.
"Alright, since everyone has broken through, let's go and check out the other warehouses," Qi Yuan said, waving his hand.
The densely packed crates in the room were all collected by Qi Yuan into his storage bag.
Next, five more warehouses were opened.
Two of them appeared damaged, with no valuable items left inside.
The remaining three warehouses were also densely packed with treasures, each worth no less than the Divine Pore Essence.
After the initial shock of the Divine Pore Essence, the Ancient Deities were more accepting of these treasures.
The awe in their hearts lingered, refusing to dissipate.
"Hepharm Factory Six isn't up to par; all the items are for babies. Are there none for adults?"
Qi Yuan, however, was not satisfied.
Currently, he had led the group to the fourth layer, entering over seventy towers.
There were still three layers of the Ancestral Ground that he had yet to explore.
At this time, a robust man dressed in a streamline liquid battle suit stood before them. The suit shimmered with flowing light, a vibrant display of colors.
This battle suit was excavated from the Ancestral Ground.
The man, named Overlord Great Venerable, was entering the seventh layer of the Ancestral Ground for the second time.
The first time he entered, it was during the Purple Mansion realm, and by chance, he stepped into the True Deity realm.
Later, after becoming a Great Venerable, he dared not venture in again.
Over the years, he dedicated himself to studying the Ancestral Ground and finally made some progress in his research.
Of course, his research was built upon the Ancient Deities' studies of the Ancestral Ground before the Hongtang War.
The streamline liquid battle suit he wore significantly increased his chances of survival in the seventh layer of the Ancestral Ground.
He stared at the She Lao before him with a cold gaze, his eyes deep and mysterious.
"Have your undercover identities been exposed?"
She Lao and the other Ancient Deities looked terrified. They also wore similar streamline battle suits, but they were far inferior to Overlord Great Venerable's.
"Yes, the new arrival immediately pointed us out.
I suspect a Great Venerable has discovered our plan!"
She Lao reported the incident truthfully to Overlord Great Venerable.
Overlord Great Venerable narrowed his eyes, "Since no one was killed, it's not your fault."
She Lao heaved a sigh of relief at his words.
Overlord Great Venerable's temper was unpredictable, and they feared being blamed by him.
"Don't be afraid of me. As Ancient Deities, we should support each other.
I'm alone on the New Deity side, and I need some help.
You and I are both Ancient Deities, so I can trust you." Overlord Great Venerable's voice softened.
She Lao's worries dissipated, and he felt a sense of importance: "I'm willing to serve Overlord Great Venerable with utmost loyalty!"
The other Ancient Deities shared his sentiment.
"Perfect timing, I have another task for you all," Overlord Great Venerable said earnestly.
"Please, Great Venerable!" She Lao hurriedly replied, hoping to make up for his previous mistake.
"To open the side door of this tower, we need to burn some True Deities. We're a few short, so I'd like to trouble you all..." Overlord Great Venerable said gently.
She Lao's face turned pale, and a sense of dread washed over him.
"You!"
He cursed and tried to escape.
But with the Divine Domain opened, he was immediately immobilized.
At that moment, several New Deities in streamline liquid battle suits appeared, their eyes filled with mocking smiles. They grabbed She Lao and the others, throwing them into the towering furnace.
That furnace could even incinerate True Deities!
Overlord Great Venerable gave She Lao and the other Ancient Deities no chance to live.
Perhaps these Ancient Deities didn't know, but the New Deities were well aware—Overlord Great Venerable, an Ancient Deity himself, was the cruelest to his kind.
Perhaps it was to prove his loyalty, but his treatment of Ancient Deities was genuinely ruthless.
"Feng Kui, Tan Zui, you two, bring the Ancient Deities who entered the Ancestral Ground here.
To open this door, we need some True Deity corpses." Overlord Great Venerable instructed.
Instantly, two terrifying New Deities in streamline liquid battle suits appeared.
These two New Deities were both Sky Treading Third Step powerhouses!
With Sky Treading Third Step experts taking action, how could the Sky Treading First and Second Step Ancient Deities possibly resist?
"As you wish!"
A male and female New Deity bowed, their bodies fading from sight.
