Chapter 204: The Underdeveloped Twins

Chapter 204: The Underdeveloped Twins

Feng Qu and Tan Zui transformed into a streak of light, dissipating into the seventh layer.

Within the Ancestral Ground, the two cautiously navigated, occasionally communicating through sound transmission.

"A bunch of useless Skywalking First Step and Second Step Ancient Deities, and they want us to capture them!" Feng Qu's eyes were filled with disdain.

"It's all because Overlord Great Venerable only recruited a bunch of useless Ancient Deities, and they can't even do this properly," Tan Zui said with a hint of sarcasm, referring to Overlord Great Venerable.

Although Overlord was a Great Venerable with exaggerated talent, in the eyes of these New Deities, a dog was still a dog, and a servant was still a servant.

They were currently working under Overlord Great Venerable, but they didn't hold him in such high regard.

"Alright, let's hurry up and capture those Ancient Deities.

This Ancestral Ground is so eerie, I don't want to stay here for a moment longer," Feng Qu said.

"Yeah, the sooner we finish, the better," Tan Zui agreed.

At that moment, in the seventh layer, Overlord Great Venerable gazed at the tower ahead, his expression complex. "What secrets does this tower hold?"

In the past, he had ventured into the Ancestral Ground alone and inexplicably entered the tower, ultimately breaking through to the True Deity realm.

Now, he was just one step away from uncovering the truth.

The New Deities didn't place much importance on this truth.

After all, New Deities didn't need to break through in the Mundane Heart World.

But Overlord Great Venerable valued it greatly, as it was related to his advancement.

Precisely because of this, his actions in the Ancestral Ground had already caused dissatisfaction among some New Deities.

The output was too little compared to the investment.

Just then, an ancient voice abruptly echoed in Overlord Great Venerable's mind.

"Just now, three Ancient Deity Great Venerables descended upon Southern City."

"What?" Overlord Great Venerable's expression changed slightly upon hearing this.

"Perhaps they came for you." The ancient voice continued.

"Thank you for the reminder, Windstorm Great Venerable," Overlord Great Venerable said, his expression shifting.

"There's nothing worth studying here. We can research it after we take over the Mundane Heart World.

This time, we can't help you, so it's best if you retreat, or there's a risk of falling." Windstorm Great Venerable's voice was calm and steady.

His words implied that he didn't support Overlord Great Venerable's time-wasting efforts in the Ancestral Ground.

"Understood," Overlord Great Venerable replied, his expression turning slightly unpleasant.

He stared at the tower ahead, his eyes filled with reluctance.

If he had just one more year, no, three more years, he would have been able to enter the core of the tower.

Perhaps the secrets from the past would have been revealed to the world.

Unfortunately, the Ancient Deities didn't give him time, and the New Deities didn't support him either.

He took one last look at the tower and finally ordered, "Let's go!"

If the three Great Venerables were indeed there for him, it would be extremely dangerous for him to stay.

So, he chose to leave, planning to return to the Ancestral Ground at a more opportune time.

"Yes, sir!" The other New Deities obeyed and gathered around Overlord Great Venerable.

At that moment, one of the New Deities spoke up, "Overlord Great Venerable, Feng Qu and Tan Zui haven't returned yet."

Overlord Great Venerable narrowed his eyes, "I've already notified them.

But they said they've encountered enemies and will leave after finishing them off.

Let's go first."

Overlord Great Venerable's words were unquestionable, and although the New Deities had doubts, they dared not voice them.

Without Overlord Great Venerable present, they might dare to speak ill of him, but doing so in his presence would be like having the heart of a leopard and the courage of a tiger.

...

"Come, follow me."

Inside the tower, Qi Yuan once again opened a warehouse.

During this time, he had been frantically sweeping through the Ancestral Ground.

Although he hadn't encountered a massive haul like the Hepharm Factory Six, his gains were still substantial.

The Ancient Deities who followed him were all beaming with joy.

The twin sister had even directly entered the Sky Striding Third Step, becoming the strongest on the field.

The twin brother was not far behind, already in the late stage of Sky Striding Third Step, just one step away from the Sky Striding Third Step.

The Joyful Arhat and Long Eyebrow Arhat had also entered the Sky Striding Third Step.

The Ancient Deities on the field had significantly improved.

However, the Essence Core, Divine Infancy, and Purple Mansion cultivators had far less improvement.

After all, in Qi Yuan's understanding, these cultivators were too weak, even inferior to babies.

This Ancestral Ground didn't have much suitable treasure for them.

"Hopefully, there will be some good stuff this time," Qi Yuan said.

He had high expectations for this warehouse.

The door was opened.

Disappointment filled Qi Yuan's eyes.

This warehouse seemed to have been severely damaged, with various unique alloys strewn about in disarray.

"There's a good box over there!" The twin brother had sharp eyes and immediately spotted a pristine glass box.

Qi Yuan approached the glass box and opened it, revealing hundreds of vials in front of him.

When the Ancient Deities saw those vials, their eyes lit up, and their bodies trembled!

"This is..."

"Divine Domain Elixir!"

"It's actually Divine Domain Elixir!"

The Ancient Deities, who had been calm before, were now breathing rapidly as they stared at the Divine Domain Elixir.

The Divine Domain Elixir, when consumed, could help cultivate the Divine Domain Seed.

The reason Great Venerables could easily annihilate Venerables was due to the existence of the Divine Domain.

Within the Divine Domain, Great Venerables could effortlessly slay Venerables.

To become a Great Venerable, one had to first achieve a Perfect Divine Vessel, then cultivate a Divine Domain Seed, and finally transform into a Divine Domain.

Even a Skywalking First Step Ancient Deity with a Divine Domain Seed could challenge the Sky Striding Third Step.

However, it was not guaranteed that even a hundred Skywalking First Step Ancient Deities would awaken a Divine Domain Seed.

It was pure fantasy to think of cultivating a Divine Domain Seed before achieving a Perfect Divine Vessel.

Even the first person in the Mundane Heart World, Gluttonyless Holy Mother, had not achieved this.

Among the Ancient Deities Qi Yuan had encountered, only Ning Tou had accomplished this feat.

Previously, when Qi Yuan summoned Ning Tou, she displayed the strength of the Sky Striding Third Step and unleashed her Divine Domain Seed, effortlessly slaying the Ancient Deities that had surrounded Qi Yuan.

Ning Tou could bear the Divine Domain Seed, and to a large extent, the environment she was in was somewhat peculiar, constantly in a state of remembering and forgetting.

In her memory, time seemed to stand still, and only Qi Yuan's appearance was her memory.

Nowadays, the legendary Divine Domain Elixir has appeared here."

How could the Ancient Deities in the presence not be tempted?

In the Mortal Heart World for so many years, there was only one person who had not yet perfected their Divine Aperture and had already borne the Divine Domain Seed.

That person was because they obtained the Divine Domain Elixir.

Nowadays, seeing the Divine Domain Elixir, how could these Ancient Deities not be excited? If they consumed it, they could form the Divine Domain Seed.

Under the Great Venerable, they had no match!

Qi Yuan looked towards the hundreds of test tubes at this moment.

[Divine Domain Elixir, also known as Vigor Oral Mild Liquid.

What to do if a child is malnourished?

Consume Vigor Oral Mild Liquid to aid in their healthy growth.]



Qi Yuan's eyes could see hidden information, and the hidden information he saw this time made him feel a little outrageous.

This Divine Domain Elixir, which the Ancient Deities considered a treasure, was actually... for malnourished children to consume.

Qi Yuan couldn't help but speculate.

The adults of that unknown race in the Ancestral Ground would become Great Venerables upon maturity.

However, there would always be some who were malnourished or lacked proper nutrition, unable to breakthrough to the Great Venerable, and stopped at the Third Step of Sky Striding.

Hence, the Divine Domain Elixir came into existence, aiding those children in growing into adults.

Qi Yuan scanned the villagers present, "It seems like everyone is malnourished."

Indeed, among the crowd before him, aside from Qi Yuan, who wasn't of a significant age?

Take, for instance, the twin sisters; they looked young and beautiful, but in reality, they were actually several thousand years old, or even ten thousand years old.

The Ancient Deities on the field looked at each other, unsure of Qi Yuan's intention.

The twin sister was unwilling to concede and lifted her chest, her bosom standing tall, "Divine Lord, where am I malnourished?"

The twin sister was more reserved, and her figure was even more explosive than her sister's. She didn't speak at this moment.

"Not becoming a Great Venerable upon adulthood is just being malnourished, isn't it?" Qi Yuan said casually.

"What's the connection between these two?" The twin sister, who was always talkative, spoke up, "I'm not a Great Venerable, but I'm a True Deity at a young age!"

"This Divine Domain Elixir is for those who are malnourished." Qi Yuan looked at the several Ancient Deities in the field, "Who among you... is malnourished?"

After Qi Yuan's words, the crowd once again felt a little confused.

They didn't quite understand Qi Yuan's true intention.

The Pinehope Ancient Deity, on the other hand, showed an expectant expression, "Divine Lord, I'm malnourished."

"Indeed, you are a little. This Divine Domain Elixir is for you."

Qi Yuan casually tossed a bottle of Divine Domain Elixir into the hands of the Pinehope Ancient Deity.

The Pinehope Ancient Deity's face was filled with excitement, and his breathing quickened as he looked at the Divine Domain Elixir, as if gazing upon an unparalleled beauty.

"Are you really giving it to me?" The Pinehope Ancient Deity tightly gripped the Divine Domain Elixir, finding it hard to believe.

This was the Divine Domain Elixir, which could lead to the path of the Great Venerable.

"You're malnourished, so I'm giving it to you. Don't hesitate; drink it quickly." Qi Yuan wasn't very concerned about this.

Seeing this, the Pinehope Ancient Deity didn't hesitate at all and directly swallowed the glass bottle containing the Divine Domain Elixir.

He was so eager that he even swallowed the bottle.

The other Ancient Deities, upon seeing this, felt a little bewildered, but they hurriedly said, "Divine Lord, I'm malnourished too!"

"I'm malnourished too!"

"Me too!"

The remaining Ancient Deities vied with each other, afraid of being left behind, all claiming that they were malnourished.

The twin sister also put aside her restraint, and with her explosive figure, she covered her soft chest and whispered, "Divine Lord, I haven't developed well either."

"It seems like you're all honest, able to accept your shortcomings. These Vigor Oral Liquids are for you."

Qi Yuan casually tossed the Divine Domain Elixir to those who had just claimed to be malnourished.

The flawless version is available at 69shu! 6=9+shu_bar first release of this novel.

The Ancient Deities were overjoyed in their hearts.

Obtaining the Divine Domain Elixir was too easy.

Merely admitting to being malnourished was enough to obtain it; was there such a good thing in the world?

Not to mention admitting to being malnourished, even if they said they were brain-damaged, they would willingly do so.

Divine Lord, why does he have such a peculiar preference? They found it hard to comprehend.

The twin sister beside them, upon seeing this, had red eyes.

Especially since her sister, who was more developed than her, had obtained a Divine Domain Elixir.

She gritted her teeth, her face turning red, and she looked at Qi Yuan, weakly saying, "Divine Lord, I'm actually a little malnourished too."

Qi Yuan looked at the twin sister, "Didn't you say you were very well-developed?"

Qi Yuan deliberately glanced at the twin sister's chest, which she had intentionally lifted earlier.

This person was so spineless and lacked dignity, bowing for a few grains of rice! "I was just pretending," the twin sister whispered.

"I couldn't accept the fact that I was malnourished due to my self-respect."

"Now, I'm not pretending anymore." The twin sister spoke with a fearless attitude.

Her figure suddenly changed, and she transformed into a thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl, her chest flat as a board.

Qi Yuan, upon seeing this, widened his eyes, "You... are too shameless!"

This was no longer bowing for a few grains of rice; this was...

"Divine Lord, am I malnourished?" The twin sister's voice was soft and sticky.

"Sigh." Qi Yuan looked at these Ancient Deities and couldn't help but sigh, "Why are the subjects I've gathered all so problematic?"

He disdainfully gave the Divine Domain Elixir to the twin sister.

He was very helpless.

The game's official settings were lacking; the NPCs' IQ was too low, and their thought processes were odd.

These Ancient Deities smiled as they consumed the Divine Domain Elixir.

They didn't care about Qi Yuan's words at all.

If not for the alluring scent of the food, their personalities would surely have them retort.

Divine Lord, you should reflect on who has the abnormal mind.

On the field, the True Deities drank the Divine Domain Elixir, and even the Joyful Arhat and Long Eyebrow Arhat each received a share.

As for those below the True Deities, they did not have the luck to partake.

After all, in Qi Yuan's eyes, these people were either underdeveloped or simply fertilized eggs.

Meanwhile, outside the tower, Feng Kui and Tan Zui's gazes stirred, their eyes filled with astonishment.

"These Ancient Deities actually managed to enter the tower!"

"Are they just lucky?"

Because of their specially designed clothes, Feng Kui and Tan Zui's safety within the ancestral ground was greatly enhanced.

Even so, they still dared not venture into the tower recklessly.

If even Great Venerables could perish within, it was even less likely for them to survive.

"But their luck will soon run out," Feng Kui's eyes gleamed with greed.

Tan Zui nodded, "Inside the tower, they must have obtained countless treasures. Perhaps they're still laughing right now."

The smile won't fade; it will soon shift to our faces."

The two quietly waited, anticipation building.

Within these towers, there were indeed treasures, and those treasures might have great value even to Great Venerables.

However, at that moment, Feng Kui thought of something, "This seems to be the fifth floor. How did they get in?"

"I don't sense the presence of any Great Venerables. Could it be that they also have some special clothing?"

"It should be so," Feng Kui dismissed her previous concerns.

Just then, a group of people emerged from the tower—ten Ancient Deities and eleven ordinary individuals.

All twenty-plus people wore radiant smiles, seemingly delighted by their bountiful harvest within the tower.

Feng Kui's eyes widened in surprise, "Among them is someone who has reached the third step of Sky Treading!"

Upon hearing this, Tan Zui's eyes grew even greedier, "They've reached the third step of Sky Treading! What did they find inside?"

He was thrilled.

The third step of Sky Treading had its strong and weak practitioners.

They were both at the late stage of the third step, and either one of them could easily annihilate all the True Deities present.

Thus, they were very confident.

"For such treasures to be consumed by them is a waste!" Feng Kui couldn't sit still any longer. "Let's go."

The two dashed forward and blocked Qi Yuan and the others.

Greed shone in Feng Kui's eyes as she licked her lips, "It seems your harvest inside was quite bountiful. Soon..." she paused, "it will be mine."

"Evil Deities?"

"The third step of Sky Treading!"

The Ancient Deities on the field were startled, sensing the impending danger.

After all, the gap between True Deities with one Divine Aperture was immense.

Before these eight individuals entered the ancestral ground, a single ordinary practitioner of the third step of Sky Treading could have easily subdued them all.

Now, with the appearance of two Evil Deities at the third step of Sky Treading, they were truly intimidated.

Feng Kui was pleased with the Ancient Deities' reaction, "Hand over what you obtained from the tower, and I'll ensure your deaths are less painful!"

Upon hearing this, the Ancient Deities who had been worried earlier now looked perplexed, as if suddenly enlightened.

What were they afraid of?

They had just consumed the Divine Domain Elixir and awakened the Divine Domain Seed as True Deities.

In a sense, they were pseudo-Great Venerables.

Their courage grew.

Qi Yuan, at that moment, looked at the two new deities with curiosity.

"Your clothes are quite interesting. Who let you two in?"

"How dare a mere mortal interrupt!" Tan Zui couldn't help but scold Qi Yuan for speaking.

It was unusual for an ordinary mortal to insert themselves into a conversation between True Deities, and Tan Zui, always arrogant, despised mortals.

"How audacious!"

"How disrespectful!"

"To speak to a Divine Lord in such a manner, you're asking for death!"

The Ancient Deities blocked Qi Yuan, their Divine Apertures swirling as they exuded a terrifying aura.

Feng Kui was taken aback, "You're listening to a mortal? So, it was because of him that you entered the tower?"

Tan Zui narrowed his eyes, gazing at Qi Yuan, "Rest assured, you won't be left in one piece."

Qi Yuan yawned in response, "A puny underdeveloped monster dares to attack with words?

Kill him. I need some Evil Deity Essence."

Qi Yuan spoke lazily.

These two Evil Deities, despite their advanced age, were not Great Venerables, merely underdeveloped.

As Qi Yuan spoke, the ten Ancient Deities on the field attacked simultaneously.

Feng Kui's eyes flashed with disdain, "Useless remains useless!"

Tan Zui stared at Qi Yuan, "Your death will be most miserable."

Several practitioners of the second and third steps of Sky Treading, instead of fleeing, dared to counter-attack, showing their contempt.

But in the next breath, Feng Kui's expression froze.

She felt the air around her harden, and her Divine Aperture's operation became obscured.

"This is... the Divine Domain Seed!"

Her eyes widened, and her gums trembled.

What had she seen? The Divine Domain Seed?

How could such a talent be here? It was known that among all the new deities, only one had awakened the Divine Domain Seed.

And here, there was one, and she had encountered him. She was both shocked and terrified.

"Impossible, how can they all be!" Tan Zui was more clear-headed than Feng Kui.

He saw not just the Divine Domain Seed but ten of them.

It was like a dream.

They had encountered ten divine beings, and all of them had awakened the Divine Domain Seed.

The probability of this... was almost absolutely impossible.

And yet, he had stumbled upon it.

The two powerful Evil Deities, faced with ten Divine Domain Embryos, were completely immobilized, their initial arrogance gone.

Qi Yuan smiled, "The effect of the 'Zhuzhuang Oral Liquid' is amazing. You two, being underdeveloped, are no match for those who are fully developed."
