Chapter 2095: Preparing for Seclusion
Because of this, Zhao Hai only nodded and said, “Yes, Master. I understand.”
The Yin Yang Elders nodded. Then the Yin Elder looked at Zhao Hai and said, “Little Hai, you’re a cultivation genius. Although you also have skill on other things, it would be best for you to focus on cultivation. Ignore the other things. Cultivating is the proper path.”
Zhao Hai complied, “Yes Master.”
Then the Yin Elder added, “Cultivate well and reach the Soul Fusion Stage as soon as possible. I want to see your strength once you break through. The sect has studied the clone technique that you handed over. A few elders are practicing it. Although they were able to produce additional dao avatars, they have yet to succeed turning them into clones. But this is already a good start. If we succeed, it would be a huge boost to the sect.”
Zhao Hai smiled and said, “It’s my duty to help the sect.”
The Yin Elder waved his hand and said, “The sect will not treat you unjustly. Rest assured, your reward will be given. Right, I heard that you have an antidote to corpse poison? Can you provide a formula for the sect? Don’t worry, we’ll make sure that the sect will reward you appropriately.”
Zhao Hai replied, “It’s fine. Handing the formula isn’t a big deal. However, the base of the potion is made with a special kind of water. At that time, I only obtained a small amount. The water is called the hundred-poison divine water. This water isn’t poisonous on its own, but if it’s used with other materials, it can become poisonous. Like its name, the water is made from a hundred poisons. The only reason it’s not poisonous is because all one hundred poisons have reached a delicate balance. A small addition will destroy this balance, making the water poisonous.”
“It took me a lot of effort to manipulate the water and create an antidote. Corpse poison used by Ghost Cultivators is an amalgamation of corpse poison as well as additions made by Ghost Cultivators. My antidote uses poison to fight poison. If ordinary hundred-poison holy water is used, I’m afraid it wouldn’t be effective. It might solve corpse poison itself, it might fail to deal with the other additions.”
After listening to Zhao Hai’s explanation, the Yin Elder asked, “Is there no other method? Can we make hundred-poison holy water?”
Zhao Hai shook his head and said, “I haven’t tried it yet. However, I think that antidotes produced with hundred-poison holy water can detoxify corpse poison. This time, I collected samples of corpse poison from Li Fei. We can use machines to observe its behavior. But I don’t have the time. I can give the corpse poison as well as the machines to the sect. I won’t participate in the research.”
The Yin Elder nodded, “Good. We’ll take care of it.” They don’t hope that Zhao Hai would help in this matter. It would take too much of Zhao Hai’s precious time. If he joined, then it might affect his cultivation.
Naturally, the hundred-poison holy water was merely an excuse. There was no such thing as hundred-poison holy water, it was just spatial water. However, the water in the Space isn’t ordinary. It had much more uses than curing poison.
Regarding the treatment of corpse poison, Zhao Hai has some ideas. Even if he doesn’t, it would only be a matter of time until the Universal Processing Machine creates one. No poison can hide against the Space.
However, Zhao Hai wanted the Tyrant Blade Sect to come up with the antidote on their own. This would be better than Zhao Hai providing the antidote to the sect.
After exchanging a few words, the Yin Yang Elders stood up and left. Then Laura and the others entered. Laura looked at Zhao Hai and asked, “Brother Hai, you changed. Back in the Great Realm of Cultivation, you’re using the Space to give all kinds of benefits to the Black Tiger Gang. But now, it seems like you’re only assisting the Tyrant Blade Sect. Will they be fine?”
Zhao Hai smiled and said, “Don’t worry. A person’s creativity is infinite. I don’t want the Tyrant Blade Sect to lose this. Otherwise, it would severely damage the sect. Alright, tomorrow, go give the machines and the formula to the Elders. In two days, I will close up to attack the Soul Fusion Stage. As long as I reach the Soul Fusion Stage, I will have more assurance in my survival.”
Zhao Hai wasn’t speaking irresponsibly. Reaching the Soul Fusion for Zhao Hai meant that his 1000 clones would fuse with his body. By that time, his strength should reach the level of Teleportation Stage experts. And with special physique, his defense might reach the standard of the Diamond Body Stage.
Naturally, all of these were merely suspicions. How it would turn out was still unknown. After all, Zhao Hai only fought against Lu Shen who had just broken through to the Teleportation Stage. Lu Shen wasn’t exactly a representation of the Teleportation Stage.
Laura and the others nodded. Then Laura said, “The True Spirit Realm’s spiritual qi is very thick. Our cultivation is going well. Brother Hai, we discovered that although the Space’s spiritual qi is also thick, our speed of cultivation is faster in the True Spirit Realm. What do you think is going on?”
Zhao Hai knit his brows, “Is that true? Why is that?”
Cai’er opened her mouth, “We thought of a possibility, but we don’t know if it’s correct. We think that because we spent too much time inside the Space, our bodies have developed a resistance to its spiritual qi. It might explain this phenomenon.”
Zhao Hai continued to frown, “We need to study this further. The Space is our core. We cannot ignore any problems with it.”
Cai’er and the others nodded. Zhao Hai continued, “Did you record the techniques of the other sects during the competition? We should study them. If we can steal their techniques, it would be good for us.”
Laura smiled and said, “Don’t worry, we’ve dealt with this matter.”
Zhao Hai nodded, then he turned to Laura and said, “Cai’er can deal with the Space’s matters. Laura, have you thought about doing business in the True Spirit Realm?”
Hearing Zhao Hai, Laura’s eyes couldn’t help but shine. To be honest, compared to other matters, Laura liked to get involved with the market. Zhao Hai’s proposal was very attractive to her.
But upon thinking about it, Laura shook her head and said, “I have no plans in the meantime. We aren’t strong enough to establish an independent shop. And I don’t intend to rely on the sect.”
Zhao Hai nodded. He didn’t plan to urge her. At this time, Meg served the food, and everyone happily ate. Zhao Hai also inquired about Qiu Tie’s progress. To be honest, Qiu Tie was a true talent in Body Cultivation. His strength was increasing constantly. His blade technique was also decent. Zhao Hai was satisfied.
The next day, Zhao Hai gave the formula of the corpse toxin to the Yin Yang Elders as well as machines that could analyze it. These machines were artifacts that were used to study lifeforms. These machines were useless in the True Spirit Realm. However, these machines had great uses when compounding potions.
As for teaching the sect how to use the machines, Zhao Hai left this task to Laura and the others.
The machines have unimaginable benefits to the pill-making abilities of the Tyrant Blade Sect. With these machines, the pill division of the Tyrant Blade Sect was on track to be on the forefront of pills in the True Spirit Realm. At this time, Zhao Hai was preparing for his seclusion.
Now that his clones have reached the same level as his main body, what Zhao Hai needs to do is to fuse the clones to his body.
Fortunately, the True Spirit Realm has methods to fuse clones back into the body. Otherwise, Zhao Hai would be in trouble. But before Zhao Hai would seclude himself, he still needed to make some preparations. He also had the Universal Scanner analyze cultivation methods in hopes of finding a concrete way to fuse 1000 clones into his body.
After completing all of his preparations, Zhao Hai invited Lin Ling, Xiang Ying, the 12 Dao Brothers, as well as Li Fei and the others to his residence and had a feast. He also told them about his seclusion.
Hearing that Zhao Hai was going into seclusion to attack the Soul Fusion Stage, Lin Ling and the others were happy. This meant that Zhao Hai’s strength was going to experience a huge boost. Being Zhao Hai’s friend, it was natural for them to be glad.
After sending Lin Ling and the others off, Zhao Hai was left with nothing else to do. But before officially going into seclusion, Zhao Hai accepted the Tyrant Blade Sect’s rewards. The reward was very simple. The sect gave Zhao Hai the same allowance as Core Disciples. And when Zhao Hai becomes strong enough, he would immediately become a Core Disciple.
