Chapter 1306: Chapter 747 Not Very Optimistic_2 Chapter 1306: Chapter 747 Not Very Optimistic_2 Qi Tian even began to doubt whether the Imperial Family Secret Territory held other secrets beyond being the final resting place of a cultivator from thousands of years ago. If he could unearth all the secrets hidden here, could it provide him with more resources to cultivate?
These thoughts continually lingered in Qi Tian’s mind, refusing to dissipate. No matter how hard he racked his brain, he couldn’t find a definitive answer to these scattered thoughts. Qi Tian couldn’t help but think about whether he should personally visit Xidu and North Capital. Others might not be able to directly find the whereabouts of Sun Xiang, Liao Bichu, and the others, but he could. With the Heavenly Dao Engine’s perception of Spirit Qi, even if soone had hidden them, he still had a great chance of directly locating them.
No sooner had this idea surfaced than Qi Tian beca eager to put it into action. Now, his strength had surged, and he was constantly protected by existences at the Nascent Soul Stage, such as Lustrous Sand and Ghost Face. With their protection, Qi Tian could traverse the entire Imperial Family Secret Territory with ease. If he went to search himself, he shouldn’t encounter any problems.
However, after so deliberation, Qi Tian decided to temporarily put this idea aside. Indeed, if he took action personally, he might be able to resolve the issue quickly, but it wasn’t necessary for him to spend his ti on finding people. Emperor Jianwu and the others would spare no effort to help him with this task; if he did it himself, would he not be depriving them of their duty and responsibility as Immortal Slaves?
Of course, what mattered more was that finding Sun Xiang and Liao Bichu was not too important for Qi Tian at the mont. To speak callously, Sun Xiang and Liao Bichu were no longer of much value to the current Qi Tian. Even if they couldn’t be found, it wouldn’t have a significant impact on him. Considering this, why should he waste his precious ti searching for them? He should rather use his ti for cultivation, which was always his top priority. Enhancing his own strength was the fundantal basis for establishing himself in the Cultivation World.
After clarifying his priorities, Qi Tian cald his mind and began cultivating in his sleeping chamber. To say he was cultivating wasn’t exactly accurate; he wasn’t sitting in ditation, absorbing Spirit Qi, and improving his cultivation level. For the present Qi Tian, that was sowhat unrealistic. The Imperial Family Secret Territory was not entirely peaceful; at any mont, situations might arise that required his intervention. If he were in closed-door cultivation and sothing urgent happened, it would cause too much of a delay.
To avoid such a situation, Qi Tian chose another approach to cultivation, which was to take out the various esoteric texts he had found in the two Saint’s Tombs and sort them according to their impact on his cultivation. Then, holding the sorted texts, he began reading and studying them to deepen his understanding of the Cultivation World.
The masters of these two Saint’s Tombs were not ordinary people in their lifetis. The first Saint’s Tomb that Qi Tian excavated belonged to a truly impressive individual, which was evident from the intricate traps and remarkable techniques set within the tomb. While reading the texts from his Saint’s Tomb, Qi Tian always felt as if he were reading a book from heaven; though he recognized every word and every sentence, they beca completely incomprehensible when strung together, and suddenly Qi Tian felt as if he had beco illiterate.
Qi Tian could only set these texts aside for the ti being and then look at the texts from the second group of Saint’s Tombs. These texts were also difficult, but they didn’t give Qi Tian that feeling of reading from heavenly scriptures. Although still challenging to understand, with a slow and careful read, he could discern so aning from them.
Qi Tian had spent several days imrsed in these ancient tos, and he found two exceedingly useful items within them. One related to the Teleportation Arrays; the second group within the Saint’s Tomb had set up nurous Teleportation Arrays, bizarre and varied in form, which were comprehensively covered in this book on Teleportation Arrays, starting from the most fundantal principles. While Qi Tian was reading this to, he felt a sudden clarity, as if enlightennt had dawned upon him. Having read it just once, he had gained a deep understanding of Teleportation Arrays. He dared not claim to be an expert in the field, but to say he was now a veteran would not be an exaggeration.
The second item was a kind of pill. The greatest stroke of luck Manager Chen found in the Saint’s Tomb was a pill that had developed a Pill Spirit, and it was this type of pill that Qi Tian had discovered—or more precisely, the thod for concocting it. The to provided a highly detailed description; as long as one possessed a certain level of alchemy skills, following the instructions within, one could concoct such pills. Provided one had enough natural treasures, it was even possible to produce several of them. Even if he did not use them himself, he could give them away to others.
Upon reading the introduction to the pills, Qi Tian quickly rifled through the treasures he’d collected from the two Saint’s Tombs, hoping to see if he could find a second finished pill. Unfortunately, there was nothing of the sort. Qi Tian had no choice but to set his sights lower and check if he could find all the natural treasures required to concoct such pills. However, the outco was still not optimistic. In the end, he did not find a single natural treasure needed.
Qi Tian felt disappointed, but such an outco was within his expectations. These pills were only used by cultivators in the Gold Core Realm when they aspired to ascend to the Nascent Soul Stage. Every ergence of such a pill would cause a huge sensation in the Cultivation World, with countless individuals fighting over it, so even to the point of carnage. This very fact underlined the preciousness of the pill and overtly indicated to Qi Tian that the natural treasures needed to concoct it were extrely rare in the Cultivation World. It was not unusual that he hadn’t found any in his collection.
In the blink of an eye, several days passed, and Qi Tian had perused nurous tos, reaping a rich harvest, yet a trace of concern always lingered in his heart. During these days, Gao Jini and Emperor Jianwu had reported their situation to Qi Tian more than once, but up to this point, they had not found any traces of Sun Xiang, Liao Bichu, or anyone else he was searching for. It was as if everyone Qi Tian was looking for had simply vanished from the Imperial Family Secret Territory.
Qi Tian was not in a rush; the eagerness of studying the tos had been aroused, and he would not mind spending more ti in the Imperial Family Secret Territory. However, Emperor Jianwu and his companions didn’t see it the sa way. The sooner they found the missing people, the sooner the issue could be resolved. Once Qi Tian’s concerns in the Imperial Family Secret Territory were relieved, he could leave earlier, and they could regain their freedom sooner.
Emperor Jianwu and his companions did not have the courage to urge Qi Tian. They could only urge their subordinates to intensify the search. anwhile, after another discussion, they decided to make contact with the Princes from Xidu and North Capital to see if they could glean any information directly from them.
All the Princes in the Imperial Family Secret Territory of the Three Grand Cities were from the Great Zhao Nation, sharing the sa ancestor – in fact, they descended from the sa bloodline. Consider Emperor Jianwu; he belonged to the Princes who entered the Imperial Family Secret Territory later on. Before him, his father and grandfather were emperors of the Great Zhao Nation, both of whom ascended to the throne after reaching the Gold Core Realm and entering the Imperial Family Secret Territory.
In principle, Emperor Jianwu should have had an extrely close relationship with his father and grandfather, so in the Imperial Family Secret Territory, they could work together closely. However, in reality, the conditions for survival in the Imperial Family Secret Territory were harsh, especially for these Princes at the pinnacle of the hierarchy, where the fatality rate was alarmingly high.
