Chapter 239: 239 Potential Dangers

The problem is, this thing, is of no use to Gu Yang.

He has conducted simulations for at least hundreds of times, and only once did he pass away of old age, which was when his cultivation level was extremely low.

Now, he could say he has enemies all over the world. If he wants to live until the end of his natural life span, he must be invincible in this world.

If so, he would at least be at the Celestial Being realm, possessing a life span of thousands of years.

By the time his strength reaches that level, whether or not this longevity elixir will still be useful is a question mark.

Gu Yang opened the system, took a look at the remaining balance, and there were only forty-eight energy units left.

After killing Shen Guang just now, he gained twenty energy units.

Shen Guang’s remaining glove provided him with ten energy units after recharging.

Now, it can be confirmed that killing a first-stage mana cultivator provides ten energy units, and a second-stage mana cultivator provides twenty.

As for the sword, he kept it.

Peerless divine weapons are extremely rare and charging with them is too wasteful.

Last time, he recharged using the God-Slaying Knife and only obtained twenty energy units. Even if this sword is of a higher level than the average divine weapon, it can at most generate dozens of energy units.

It would be better to save it for Xi Huang to use. Once her strength is fully restored with the added power of this sword, she could challenge those from the Unleaking Realm.

“Do you want to use the Life Simulator? It consumes ten units of energy for each use.”

“Yes.”

No matter what, this is a divine pill passed down from ancient times. Maybe it has some special effects.

Gu Yang decided to give it a try.

“At twenty-two years old, you are a first-stage mana cultivator. You killed Shen Guang, a second-stage mana cultivator, in Mountain Terrace City and obtained the divine weapon, the Wanshu Sword. You rescued Gu Xiyue.”

“Gu Xiyue gave you the Seven Lives Tonic Pill. You both separated, and you headed to the secret realm of Tianzhu Mountain. After taking the pill and assimilating its power…”

“Two years later, a powerful original spirit was born in your body, forcefully seizing your body. You died at the age of twenty-four.”

Seizure?

Looking at the box in front of him, Gu Yang’s face suddenly changed.

He cultivated mana and had trained the fifth layer of the “God Refining Chapter” of the Nine Heavens Divine Method. His original spirit was at least five times stronger than those of other mana cultivators, yet it was easily seized.

Clearly, a terrifyingly powerful old monster was hidden within this Seven Lives Tonic Pill.

When he first took the elixir, he didn’t notice anything unusual, and it was hidden in his body until it erupted two years later, suddenly seizing his body.

That old monster was almost certainly at the Celestial Being realm.

“What’s wrong?”

Seeing Gu Yang’s facial expression change drastically into one of extreme vigilance, Chu Xiyue hurriedly asked.

Gu Yang responded, “Let her hold on to this for now. Come with me, I have something to tell you.”

Seeing his solemn demeanor, Chu Xiyue knew he must have discovered something. She handed the box containing the Seven Lives Tonic Pill to her aunt. Then, she followed Gu Yang outside.

They didn’t stop until they were a few kilometers away.

Gu Yang then set up two layers of mana barriers to prevent their conversation from being heard before he said, “There’s something wrong with the Seven Lives Tonic Pill.”

“What?”

Chu Xiyue’s face changed, “Could it be…is the pill fake?”

“The pill might not be fake. Just that, there’s an original spirit hidden inside, once you take it, that spirit will seize the body without the person knowing.”

Chu Xiyue gasped, realizing the danger. Previously, she planned to offer the pill to her ancestor. Imagine if her ancestor didn’t detect the problem with the pill and took it…

If something were to happen to the ancestor, it would be a catastrophic blow to the Chu Family.

She’d be beyond redemption.

Fortunately, she brought the pill to Gu Yang for inspection, and he discovered the problem in time. Otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable.
