Chapter 203 Reward
Inside the secret room, Ding Yi sat cross-legged on the floor, looking at the several items laid out in front of him.
This trip to Baihe Mountain Villa was very rewarding for him, and it was arguably his most satisfying one yet.
Firstly, in terms of lifespan, a single kill on the god grants nearly 300 years of lifespan, and with the jade-colored statue, it can be said that this wave of his lifespan has reached a new historical high.
If he were to simply find a place to live in seclusion, he could live for centuries.
But it was clear that Ding Yi had no such intention.
The four-eyed demon's final words about Changqingzi seemed to unveil a mysterious corner of a taboo, making Ding Yi feel a great terror about to descend.
But the most important issue now is that he needs to figure out who this so-called Changqingzi is.
When in doubt, consult the system first.
Ding Yi directly picked up his brush, dipped it in ink, then spread a piece of paper on the small table in front of him and wrote the entry "The secret of Changqingzi is related to me" on it.
[Currently, the required lifespan for enhancement is 2352 years and 123 days. Enhance now?]
Damn, I knew it!
Upon seeing the prompt before him, Ding Yi's expression immediately darkened.
With that kind of lifespan, he'd be a terrestrial immortal by now, what's there to be afraid of, Changqingzi?
However, not knowing this secret made Ding Yi feel like there was always a heavy weight on his chest; the unknown threat was always the most terrifying.
So, Ding Yi picked up his pen and pondered for a while, then crumpled the paper in front of him into a ball and threw it away. He then took out a new piece of paper, laid it on top, and continued to write the entry "Changqingzi's secret hint is related to me".
[Currently, the required lifespan for enhancement is 689 years and 145 days. Enhance now?]
It still doesn't work...
Ding Yi had a headache, then seemed to remember something and added the entry "lifespan controlled within 30 years" to the paper in front of him.
Sure enough, adding this term had an immediate effect.
[Currently, the required lifespan for enhancement is 30 years. Should I enhance it?]
Is this okay?
Ding Yi was taken aback, but then hesitated.
Clearly, you get what you pay for with your life, and Ding Yi didn't think that thirty years of lifespan would provide any significant clues.
But, should we take a gamble?
Ding Yi stroked the pen in his hand, then gritted his teeth and directly chose "yes".
The next moment, the words on the white paper in front of them began to appear as lines, then they twisted together and turned into a ball of black lines, and finally slowly separated on the white paper to form new words.
"The other is not me, the other is not him, beyond the Thirty-Three Heavens, the Ancient Evergreen Temple"
"This is fucking..."
Ding Yi was completely bewildered when he saw the words in front of him.
This is going to cost me thirty years of my life?
However, after careful consideration, he discovered that there was some hidden meaning in this line of text.
First and foremost is Changqing Temple.
This name is exactly the same as the name of the 108 Divine Palaces. In addition, the four-eyed evil god seems to know this Changqingzi. Ding Yi immediately suspected that Changqingzi might also be an evil god.
As for the question of "that which is not me, that which is not him," Ding Yi didn't have any ideas yet. However, now that he had a breakthrough, he had a direction to follow.
It's simply a matter of finding clues related to the Changqing Palace; perhaps new discoveries will emerge then.
Thinking of this, Ding Yi felt a little more relaxed, and his gaze fell on an open wooden box on the table.
Inside this wooden box is the fleshy bodhi seed brought back from Baihe Mountain Villa.
According to Wu Fengbao, this flesh bodhi was born with a spirit, and the people of the Seven Absolutes Palace actually risked their lives to appear near Baihe City for it, which shows how precious it is.
So Ding Yi took out a small knife and cut a thin slice off the fleshy Bodhi tree.
This fleshy bodhi is said to be able to regenerate flesh and blood, with effects comparable to divine elixirs. Moreover, it can grow on its own in the soil until it transforms into a human form.
Thinking of this, Ding Yi first put the thin slice under his nose and smelled it, then his expression changed slightly, and he got up and left the secret room.
After arriving outside the courtyard, Ding Yi headed straight for the training ground.
Upon arriving at the training ground, Ding Yi looked around and immediately spotted an unexpected figure.
Although Sun Tao was injured, he still practiced his boxing with a determined look in his eyes, even though his wounds had reopened and red blood had seeped through the gauze.
"Sun Tao, are you still practicing your boxing?"
Ding Yi stood next to Sun Tao for a while and then suddenly spoke up.
"Ah? Elephant!"
Sun Tao was stunned when he heard Ding Yi's voice, and then he quickly knelt down on one knee and clasped his hands in greeting.
Seeing this, Ding Yi waved his hand, signaling Sun Tao to stand up, and then asked:
"If you're injured, just rest. Why keep training?"
"Reporting to Elephant Lord, I want to become as strong as you!!"
Sun Tao said in a firm tone.
"Heh, not bad."
Upon hearing this, Ding Yi nodded.
Sun Tao is a man of strong character and good talent. In addition, he is efficient in his work. I should give him a chance.
Thinking of this, Ding Yi took out the thin skin he had just cut from the Bodhi tree, handed it to Sun Tao, and said:
"Eat it."
Upon hearing this, Sun Tao looked up and saw that Ding Yi was holding something he had never seen before. He only hesitated for a moment before resolutely taking it and putting it in his mouth.
One breath, two breaths, three breaths...
Five breaths later, Sun Tao suddenly looked startled and couldn't help but scratch the bandaged area. In the end, he simply unwrapped the bandage, only to find that the wounds had disappeared!
"My lord, what is this?!"
Sun Tao was shocked, but the next moment, he seemed to realize something and quickly looked at his hands, his face immediately showing surprise.
"My Qi and blood have improved! Thank you so much for the medicine, sir!!"
Sun Tao quickly knelt down again, clasped his hands in a fist salute to Ding Yi, and said...
Ding Yi, however, watched this scene calmly without saying a word.
After a dozen or so breaths, Sun Tao looked up at Ding Yi with some puzzlement and asked:
"grown ups?"
Ding Yi nodded in response, then asked:
"How does it taste?"
"Reporting to you, sir, there was no noticeable sensation upon tasting it; it felt like it was made of water."
Sun Tao answered honestly.
"Yes, work hard for me, and you'll have all of these things in the future."
Ding Yi chuckled again, then turned and left.
After Ding Yi left, all the gang members who had been watching gathered around, touching Sun Tao's healed wounds, and they were all somewhat envious.
"Elder Li is so kind! I've been injured so many times for the gang, and I've never seen any elder give me medicine to heal my wounds!"
"What do you know? Elder Li's current skills are unparalleled; he's likely to be the next sect leader!"
Listening to the comments of those around him, Sun Tao said with a hint of smugness:
"These are more than just healing pills; I just discovered that my organ refinement progress has taken another big step forward!"
"What?! No way!"
"Damn it, I want to join the masses too!"
"Go eat shit! You dare to challenge me?!"
Ding Yi, who had returned to the secret room, was naturally unaware of what had happened at the training ground.
He sat back down at the table with some excitement, picked up the meatball with burning eyes, and examined it closely.
At this moment, he even discovered that the area where he had just cut off the piece had completely recovered, with no trace left.
"No wonder the Seven Absolutes Palace would risk everything to snatch this thing. It seems that it can not only refine evil spirits, but also help martial artists to stimulate their life force. It's simply a rare treasure!"
Ding Yi didn't hesitate and immediately wrote the words "Enhanced effect with no side effects" on the fleshy ball.
After a breath, a line of text suddenly appeared in Ding Yi's sight.
[Currently available for enhancement; required lifespan: 49 years and 13 days. Enhance now?]
