The eight-hundred-mile empty domain vanished, Gu Wen set down his teacup, and another Blood Pill appeared in his hand.
This was the pill refined by the Heavenly Demon Ancestor, intended for Jiang Fugui, enabling him to reach the Mahayana stage in Corpse Refinement, making him indistinguishable from the living.
An Immortal refining a pill merely for someone to reach the Mahayana stage was an extreme waste.
But it was fair, as ascending in a single leap was against the natural order. Jiang Fugui should have died five hundred years ago; he didn't have the aptitude to become an Immortal. How could he ascend by merely consuming a pill?
"Three thousand years for Mahayana, five thousand years for a living corpse, only longevity is an arduous path, a sliver more is as difficult as ascending to heaven."
Gu Wen took a sip of the cold tea and sighed softly.
He recalled the words left by the Earth Saint before disappearing.
"Disdain, or is there another reason?"
