Chapter 1964: Old Spatial Divine Ability
"Ah?"
"Captured?"
He Pingsheng's mouth fell open in shock: "Senior Gu, when did this happen? Can you tell me the details?"
Gu Chizi glanced at He Pingsheng twice and said: "You seem to care quite a bit about Lian Nihong!"
"Hehehe... However, I don't actually know that much about the Lian family's affairs!"
"Earlier I was quite familiar with the Lian family head, that is, Lian Nihong's father Lian Zhongtian. It can be said that we two were close friends of many years!"
"I liked alchemy, he liked formations!"
"At his peak, Lian Zhongtian had a cultivation of the eleventh layer of the God Monarch Realm. He was the one among us brothers most likely to enter the God Venerable Realm!"
"What a pity. He fell into an ambush by the Fifth Family, and then was torn to pieces!"
"From then on, the Lian Family and the Fifth Family became mortal enemies!"
"As for why the Lian Family and the Fifth Family started fighting, even this old man doesn't know. Because Lian Zhongtian was this old man's close friend, back then this old man also sent people to investigate in private, but didn't manage to obtain even a shred of inside information!"
"When the Lian Family's eldest daughter, that is Lian Nihong, took over the family, this old man still sent people to deliver a generous gift!"
"Unfortunately later, we didn't have much connection with the Lian Family anymore."
"The Lian Family has two daughters. The eldest is called Lian Nihong, the youngest is called Lian Niyun......"
Gu Chizi spoke on and on. He Pingsheng already knew the later plot: Lian Nihong suddenly disappeared and died, Lian Niyun took over the family, and this Lian Niyun even married the enemy's Young Master, Di Wu Rensong.
He Pingsheng didn't know what happened after that.
Because back when He Pingsheng took Lian Nihong to Yinbing Mountain, he already knew this information.
Today Gu Chizi told it all at once, and He Pingsheng could be considered to have gained an understanding of the Lian Family's later affairs.
According to Gu Chizi, roughly a dozen Eras ago, Lian Nihong suddenly returned to the family, and then was inexplicably arrested.
After that there was no more after.
"Perhaps she is imprisoned in the Lian Family and the Fifth Family, or perhaps Lian Nihong was already killed by them long ago. As for the rest, this old man doesn't know." Gu Chizi's information was also limited.
After he finished speaking, he also asked He Pingsheng a question: "Does Young Master He plan to save her?"
He Pingsheng shook his head: "Not planning to for now. I also don't have this ability!"
This was his true feelings.
On one hand, He Pingsheng indeed didn't have sufficient ability. He only had a God Spirit Realm cultivation.
Although he could comprehend Dao Laws, in the end he still hadn't comprehended them.
So he felt that without using that one drop of water, he absolutely could not be a match for a God among God Monarchs.
On the other hand, between He Pingsheng and Lian Nihong, there wasn't any intimate relationship.
They didn't count as friends, let alone family!
The two of them had once used each other, each taking what they needed.
That was all!
He Pingsheng's attitude toward Lian Nihong was: if I have the ability, I don't mind giving you a hand. But if I have no certainty or saving you requires paying too great a price, then sorry, I won't lightly involve myself in your karma.
Not long after, a Gu Family disciple arrived at this guest hall.
He delivered a ring to Gu Chizi, then left.
Gu Chizi laughed heartily: "Young Friend He, these are the waste pills I refined earlier. Take them!"
He Pingsheng didn't stand on ceremony either, directly accepting the ring.
He discovered there were actually a full forty-plus batches of waste pills inside.
Good fellow, struck it rich, struck it rich!
"Many thanks!" After He Pingsheng got the things, he said: "Senior Gu, this junior will leave first. Then I'll wait until after five Eras to come ask you for the remaining one hundred and twenty batches of God Pills!"
He Pingsheng left directly!
Three days later, he returned to the He Family!
He first took out one batch of twelve waste pills and threw them into the Treasure Gathering Basin.
One year later, the twelve waste pills were strengthened by him into twenty-four supreme-grade pills.
He took one out and examined it.
Name: Heavenly Heart God Pill
Grade: Fourth Grade, Supreme Grade!
Function: After swallowing, can increase comprehension. When comprehending Heaven and Earth Dao Laws, theoretical efficiency is ten times the original. Effect lasts one thousand years!
He Pingsheng smiled. Same old routine.
Low grade one times, mid grade three times, high grade five times, supreme grade ten times.
However, these are all theoretical.
In reality, based on individual comprehension, it's very hard to achieve.
Generally speaking, the higher one's own comprehension, the less obvious the effect.
For example, an ordinary fellow with mediocre talent and average comprehension, after swallowing a supreme-grade Heavenly Heart God Pill, can increase comprehension tenfold.
But for a heaven-defying comprehension monster like He Pingsheng, being able to increase five times after swallowing a supreme-grade God Pill is already not bad.
"Huu..." He Pingsheng let out a deep breath, then picked up a Heavenly Heart God Pill and directly swallowed it into his stomach.
In an instant, his Divine Sense became clear and bright.
He Pingsheng dumped all the remaining waste pills and formed pills into the Treasure Gathering Basin, then took out the Hongmeng Purple Gold Staff and began comprehending Spatial Dao Laws.
Why comprehend Spatial Dao Laws?
Actually He Pingsheng didn't have many better choices.
When he was in the Immortal Realm before, he had always cultivated Spatial Dao Laws. Now if he didn't cultivate Spatial Dao Laws, there wasn't anything else good to cultivate.
Next, He Pingsheng cultivated the spatial Dao arts, hoping that after gaining a certain level of mastery over them, he would be able to use the divine ability of 【Void Swift Movement】.
Instant movement!
Once he had this divine ability, he would have the means to protect himself even when encountering high-level cultivators in the future.
Therefore, based on these two reasons, He Pingsheng chose to comprehend the spatial Dao arts.
Time flowed slowly!
One year, two years, three years!
In a flash, a yuan of time passed.
This Heart God Pill, each pill can last for a thousand years; one yuan is 120,000 years, which equals 120 pills—neither more nor less—just enough for ten furnaces.
The waste pills and finished pills He Pingsheng previously obtained from Ancient Ruler amounted to nearly fifty furnaces in total.
After strengthening, it became one hundred furnaces.
That is to say, he could use ten yuan of time.
Continue!
One yuan!
Two yuan!
Three yuan!
……
In the blink of an eye, another three yuan of time passed.
He Pingsheng opened his eyes and slowly rose from the meditation mat.
"Move..."
He let out a soft cry, and his entire body suddenly vanished from the spot.
When he reappeared, He Pingsheng was already outside the outer gate of the He family, ten thousand zhang away.
Chaos Swift Movement, finally usable.
No... now, it should be said that the divine ability supported by the spatial Dao arts is more appropriately called Void Swift Movement.
"Move..."
He Pingsheng let out a soft cry, and the divine power and Dao arts within his body exerted force simultaneously.
In the next moment, his body vanished once again.
In less than a breath, He Pingsheng landed at the main hall's gate of the clan.
There are always people on duty at the main hall.
The person on duty saw He Pingsheng and, frightened, flopped down and knelt: "Greetings, Young Master..."
This was the first time he had seen He Pingsheng.
He Pingsheng, however, laughed and waved his hand: "No need for excessive courtesy—go call Old Tong and Fu Bo over!"
