Chapter 1194: Chapter 0692: Urgent Issue_2 Chapter 1194: Chapter 0692: Urgent Issue_2 It was foreseeable that when they entered the Inner Underground Palace, the dangers inside would only be more severe than what they were currently facing. If other Gold Core Realm powerhouses could have stronger abilities to protect themselves, then it would undoubtedly be more beneficial than not for exploring the entire Saint’s Tomb.
Qi Tian said, “We must find ways to reduce casualties and avoid loss of life as much as we can. I know that when clearing out the underground palace, we may encounter various dangers. So dangers are very formidable, with explosive power, and they can deal destructive blows to people in an instant without giving them any chance to react. For that kind of situation, I am powerless. What I want to discuss is another common scenario, which is when we unexpectedly encounter danger that doesn’t imdiately annihilate us, giving us the ability to resist and ti to heal ourselves. What should we do then?”
Emperor Yonghe said, “Master Qi, we have considered the kind of situation you ntioned. When we were in Eastern Capital City, we followed your orders to make thorough preparations. Everyone did what they could to prepare armor, weapons, defense talismans, and various kinds of pills. Basically, each person emptied their purse and exchanged everything for supplies that might be needed for this exploration.”
Qi Tian glanced at Emperor Yonghe. He was unsure whether other Gold Core Realm powerhouses did the sa, but he was certain of one thing: none of the princes, including Emperor Yonghe, had done so. They might have made a lot of preparations, and the quality and quantity of their supplies certainly could not be compared to those of other Gold Core Realm powerhouses, but every one of these princes had a limit to their preparations and did not sell all of their possessions for supplies needed for this exploration. The cultivation resources they didn’t sell were more than those they did.
Qi Tian did not delve deeper into the responsibility of the princes. He was never a master who drove his Immortal Slaves to death; he would still leave so cultivation resources for his Immortal Slaves to use later.
He said, “Right now, I won’t discuss how you prepared when we first set off. I want to talk about what kind of situation we are facing right now. Soon, we will begin to open the inner tomb door and enter the Inner Underground Palace. During this process, we may encounter various dangers, and many of us might suffer casualties. I want to know if anyone still has ergency dicines on hand? If you do, please raise your hand and report to what kinds of dicines you have and how many.”
People didn’t know what Qi Tian was planning, but out of trust for him, they raised their hands and reported as he requested.
Aside from the few still cultivating, over a hundred people raised their hands, indicating they all had so ergency dicine, but the specifics of the types, qualities, and quantities of these dicines varied widely.
This ti, the selected Gold Core Realm powerhouses who entered the Saint’s Tomb were at least at the Mid-stage Gold Core Realm. Logically, the pills they used should correspond to their cultivation realm. Only in this way, when they faced an ergency, could the dicine exhibit sufficient efficacy to et their needs. However, Qi Tian found that among these hundred-plus people, more than half owned pills that did not match their cultivation realm; they were almost all below their realm’s level. These cultivators were using dicines that would only be treasured by those in the Early Gold Core Realm, and so even had dicines prepared that were used by Foundation Establishnt Stage cultivators.
Given the poor quality of the dicines these people were using, it was certain that they would not be able to recover their condition tily by taking these dicines in an ergency. The consequences could be extrely serious. Once in danger, these individuals would inevitably beco a high-risk group for casualties.
As for the less than half of the cultivators among them, the quality of elixirs they possessed did not always match their cultivation realms. Among the elixirs they had, very few actually corresponded to their realms; most were lower than their cultivation levels.
Given the subsequent exploration, this group of people still had a very high chance of suffering casualties.
Among all the participants, only a few had elixirs that matched their cultivation realms. These were either the Prince or his confidants. Unless they encountered extrely unexpected circumstances, they would usually be the last ones in the entire team to suffer any casualties.
Qi Tian had been ntally prepared for such a situation; he patiently waited until everyone had reported their available elixirs, then he shook his head.
Without going into other aspects, the overall preparation of elixirs alone was far from optimistic for Qi Tian. Even the few Princes and their confidants, their supply of elixirs was just so-so—aside from eting their personal needs, there wasn’t much surplus.
This was actually quite logical. Taking Emperor Yonghe as an example, he was just a cultivator at the Golden Core Stage Seventh Level. Among the Gold Core Realm powerhouses he had gathered, the highest was only at the Gold Core Stage Eighth Level. Even if he could attract more Gold Core Realm powerhouses, the foundation was set; with such a foundation, trying to find appropriate elixirs by exploring the Saint’s Tomb was extrely difficult. And attempting to obtain elixirs through trade with other Princes was equally challenging; after all, what he needed, the other Princes needed too, and a trade was almost impossible.
That the likes of Emperor Yonghe could save up so elixirs was because they went through untold hardships, the price paid behind the scenes was unknown. Attempting to find a large quantity of high-quality elixirs from a Prince and his circle was nearly impossible.
During the exploration of the Inner Underground Palace in the Saint’s Tomb, the entire team paid a heavy price. There were many reasons for this situation, but the lack of adequately prepared elixirs was definitely a very important one. If they could not resolve this issue now, then later, when exploring the Inner Underground Palace of the Saint’s Tomb, the entire team was bound to pay an even steeper price. It was not impossible that they would be annihilated, leaving only a handful of survivors.
Qi Tian did not want to see such an outco. He had to find a way to resolve this issue, ensuring that every mber of the team had more chances to survive. This would minimize unnecessary losses of personnel to the greatest extent and allow Qi Tian, when in need, to still have comrades-in-arms and receive assistance in dealing with minor issues.
