Nationwide Development: Spend Billions in Advance to Bind the Empress

Chapter 474 Even the Dao Ancestor is Poor. Feedback: Half-Step Dao Ancestor Pill!

Consort Ao wasn't as cunning as those old foxes; she couldn't possibly have guessed all that.

Upon hearing the grade of this treasure, she felt a chill run down her spine!

A Dao Ancestor-level magic weapon given as a gift upon first meeting? This gift is simply too precious!!

If it weren't for not wanting to embarrass Brother Shen, to be honest, her legs would be a little weak right now.

After biting her tongue, Ao Fei forced herself to calm down and then clasped her hands in a respectful bow.

"Senior, you are too kind. It would be more appropriate to leave this treasure to other fellow cultivators of the Dragon Clan. I already have a similar treasure given to me by Brother Shen, so it would be a waste to accept it."

If she refused outright with feigned trepidation, she would give herself away, so she made up a reason that also served to subtly highlight Shen Yun's bulging wallet.

really!

Upon hearing this, the way everyone around Shen Yun looked at him immediately changed:

'As expected of a peak Dao Ancestor, even the ancestral artifacts he casually gives to those around him are treasures of their clan!'

'This is true power! Unlike us, who are penniless…'

"Thank you!" Shen Yun remained calm and composed, even as everyone looked up at him.

He only just realized that Ao Fei was also a first-rate actress, even better at bragging than him!

Ying Tian was somewhat embarrassed. He thought it was a sure thing, but the other party didn't even want it.

He did indeed want to use Consort Ao's bloodline to build a relationship.

He knew his own situation best; his lineage of dragons was indeed declining, and the world he lived in had entered the Dharma-ending Age!

If they cannot find a breakthrough, there will only be one outcome for them: to disappear into the annals of history.

So while he was still able to move, he forcibly broke through the barrier and came to the battlefield of all races in order to find a way to break the deadlock.

The opportunity was right in front of me, but unfortunately I ran into a powerful tycoon. It was truly frustrating.

But he wasn't about to give up so easily, and continued:

"I imagine your clan also needs this treasure. How about we form a good relationship with our clan?"

Although he phrased his last sentence subtly, he was still willing to sacrifice his dignity.

Consort Ao didn't want to owe anyone a favor, and might even cause trouble for Brother Shen.

But just as she was about to refuse, she heard Shen Yun laugh beside her:

"Since you are offering this as a gift, please accept it. If you have the opportunity in the future, please exchange ideas with me. It will be beneficial to your cultivation."

He had already seen through Ying Tian's intentions.

Given Consort Ao's current background, her achievements are bound to be considerable.

The hidden reward of "Interdimensional Interoperability" combined with the promising Chaos Green Lotus makes getting to know powerful dragons a good thing for her, as she can also learn many dragon techniques.

“Alright, Brother Shen.” Ao Fei no longer refused and accepted the Myriad Dragons Divine Pearl handed to her by Ying Tian.

"Haha, that's wonderful!" With his worries gone, Ying Tian's face was full of smiles.

To be honest, if it weren't for Shen Yun's sake, how could he have given away this treasure so easily?

Fortunately, the other party accepted his kindness!

As for how Ao Fei came into his world, it's actually quite simple.

All cultivators who arrived at the Battlefield of Myriad Races received a prompt from the Heavenly Dao, which clearly stated that as long as a cultivator returned alive from the battlefield to their original world, the barrier of their native world would open, thus connecting them to the outside world!

This also means that the advanced worlds where the various Dao Ancestors reside are no longer independent.

If one were to retreat to a realm, looking across the starry sky, one would find only Ancestor Fu Chuan and a few others; searching outwards, one would not be able to find a single Dao Ancestor.

However, once the world barrier is opened, it will connect to other advanced worlds of the same level.

This is undoubtedly good news for the Daoist masters who have been 'working behind closed doors'!

Not only will there be more people exchanging ideas and practices, but high-quality treasures will also gradually circulate. Looking to the future, the benefits outweigh the drawbacks.

The prerequisite is that only Dao Ancestors who survive the battlefield of myriad races can open the barrier of their own world!

Ying Tian felt that Shen Yun would be fine if he came out alive, but if he died, it was fate and couldn't be forced.

Of course, the safest approach would be to wait for Shen Yun to come out before trying to get close to him and flatter him.

But that would be a poor choice, too mercenary, and people might not even give him a second glance.

Therefore, investing in advance is very necessary.

The Dao Ancestors present also wanted to get closer to Shen Yun, but they were really reluctant to give up Dao Ancestor-level magic treasures as a stepping stone, as that would be too extravagant!

Yingtian was betting heavily on the sake of their race; they hadn't reached that level yet, so naturally they were reluctant to give it up.

The group chatted idly as they walked until they arrived at the town's trading area.

But after walking around for a while, Shen Yun lost interest:

Even the Dao Ancestor was quite poor...

Because the highest quality treasures here are only at the half-step Dao Ancestor realm, there isn't even a single Dao Ancestor artifact, let alone a Chaos level one.

At Yingtian's invitation, Shen Yun arrived at his palace, but politely declined his request to discuss Taoist practices.

Fighting is fine, but wouldn't sitting down to discuss these profound things give us away?

"The Battlefield of Ten Thousand Races will open in two days." Shen Yun, having arrived outside the room, looked at Zhu Qingcheng and instructed her:

"Qingcheng, you wait here for us when we come out."

Zhu Qingcheng is not qualified to go in; she can stay here.

If anything really happens, he, as a player, will be able to tell, so there's no need to worry.

"Yes!" Zhu Qingcheng nodded: "Don't worry, young master, Qingcheng understands."

The two women lived in one room, while Shen Yun lived in the next room.

Upon entering the room, he opened the game interface to check the status of all the characters.

After leaving the secret realm, Qingxue began to devote herself to studying the Great Dao of Power.

At this moment, she is in a mountain range, suppressing her cultivation and relying solely on her strength to fight against the demonic beast before her.

Clearly, this girl intends to start with the most basic control of power and rediscover the foundation of power.

The scene shifts to Xian'er in seclusion inside the Underworld Palace.

Xian'er gained an extremely rich harvest from this secluded adventure!

Her cultivation level not only reached the first level of Immortal Emperor, but her Heavenly Demon Nine-Tailed Fox bloodline also transformed into the Dao Ancestor level.

Hongxi also had a good harvest this time, her cultivation level reached the ninth level of Quasi-Immortal Emperor, and she also gained a cheat code for refining half-step Dao pills.

At this moment, the girl was accompanying Immortal Venerable Mingxiao to visit an alchemist, presumably in search of information about a half-step Dao Ancestor's pill formula.

After all, once she consumed the Pill Refining and Luck Fruit, she could refine two and a half Dao-step pills every day as long as she had the pill recipe.

At this moment, a prompt appeared on the screen:

[Ding! A notification has been received because the character Luo Hongxi has refined a rare feedback pill!]

'Could it be a half-step Dao Ancestor Pill?!' Shen Yun's eyes lit up, and he quickly opened Hong Xi's package.

The feedback pills she refined before didn't have this kind of notification.

really!

The moment it was opened, information about a half-step Dao Ancestor Pill was displayed:

[Heavenly Spirit Dao Pill (Rare): After consuming this pill, a cultivator at the half-step Dao Ancestor realm can comprehend the true essence of the Great Dao and advance to the Dao Ancestor realm!]

"This ability is truly amazing!" Shen Yun exclaimed in astonishment, having obtained such a heaven-defying pill so soon after arriving!

It has to be said that Hongxi's ability is truly impressive.

As for the other feedback pills in the package, they were all low-quality pills that Hongxi had recently refined, and there were no half-step Dao pills.

'It's perfect to keep this for Xian'er and the others...' He has an upgrade cheat and isn't worried about not reaching the Dao Ancestor level. Xian'er and Qingxue have already reached the Immortal Emperor level, so they might need it in the future.
