Chapter 2050: Money Makes the Ghost Turn the Millstone

"Oh... so many..."

Su Zhenzhen's bright red little mouth gaped open, looking at He Pingsheng with a face full of shock: "This... these are all fifth grade?"

Presented before her eyes were densely packed bottles.

Twenty-four thousand in total!

"Among them, four thousand bottles are 【Dragon Tiger Myriad Aspect Pills】, and they're all supreme grade!"

"A single pill can let a cultivator at the peak twelfth layer of the Divine Lord Realm directly break through to the God Venerable Realm!"

"Without any accident!"

"These twenty thousand bottles are fifth grade 【Divine Dao Pills】, the five elements attributes metal, wood, water, fire, earth each accounting for four thousand bottles!"

"Twelve pills per bottle, likewise all supreme grade!"

Before entering the Collapsed Dao Fallen Yellow, He Pingsheng had purchased two thousand furnaces of 【Dragon Tiger Myriad Aspect Pills】 and ten thousand furnaces of 【Divine Dao Pills】.

Both these pills were fifth grade, for the purpose of strengthening after entering the Equality Zone.

Naturally they did not disappoint expectations.

He Pingsheng now handed these things over to Su Zhenzhen.

"You are our He family's clan head..." He Pingsheng closed his eyes, his nose lightly brushing against Su Zhenzhen's ear as he took a deep breath, "Being the decision maker isn't easy, you take all these, to subsidize the family's various expenses in the future!"

"Recruit more contract disciples, so your cultivation can advance further!"

"Okay!" Su Zhenzhen waved her hand, collecting all the pills into her own storage space, saying: "Too many items, and all supreme grade, can be placed in our He family's pill shop to slowly digest!"

He Pingsheng said: "The He family has a pill shop now?"

"Mm!" Su Zhenzhen said: "In Xuanji City, a shop neither large nor small, very ordinary, besides selling some of our family's pills, that 【Three Zhang Valley】 also sells there!"

"Before, it was entirely relying on Three Zhang Valley to hold things up!"

He Pingsheng nodded.

Newly arrived at this Xuanji City, the He family's industries could sustain themselves, yet had no particularly large profits.

Pill refining was perfectly ordinary!

Riding flying boats was also very ordinary.

After all, He Pingsheng these years went to the Collapsed Dao Fallen Yellow, unable to use the Treasure Basin to bless the family.

Of course, even if he had it, it wouldn't bless much!

After all, each year only one item could be strengthened, truly a drop in the bucket.

But fortunately there was this Three Zhang Valley trump card, able to continuously create profits for the He family, supporting this enormous family's operation.

"During this time, pay attention!" He Pingsheng said: "Have Zhou Qingmei make a trip to Xuanji City, help me watch for anyone investigating my tracks!"

"Ah?" Su Zhenzhen was slightly startled, saying: "Husband... offended some powerful noble again?"

"Not exactly!" He Pingsheng said: "Just being cautious and guarding against it!"

He was confident that all matters within the Collapsed Dao Fallen Yellow were done by him without leaking a drop.

For example, killing the Nine Directions Crown Prince and his subordinates!

For example, when the Heavenly Coffin inheritance arrived, he did not receive it, the inheritance ultimately went to the Big Mouth Fish.

For example, after entering the Hongmeng Supreme Dao Bell's space, although he ultimately obtained the Divine Bell, he also went through a scheme, pushing the matter onto Gu Baiping's head.

Every matter, every affair, all cleaned himself off completely clean.

But for the sake of just in case, still needed to be a bit more careful.

After all, there are always some people with ulterior motives!

What if they just think I, He Pingsheng, performed abnormally and am a genius, so they want to investigate my tracks?

Being on guard is never wrong.

"Alright..." Su Zhenzhen said: "I'll arrange for Qingmei to go over..."

She was just about to rise, but He Pingsheng pressed down on Su Zhenzhen's snow-white fragrant shoulders with one hand: "Zhenzhen, don't move... no rush for this moment!"

"Let's first... sort out the Dao methods before speaking!"

"Transparent!"

After Su Zhenzhen left, He Pingsheng lay on the meditation cushion, eyes closed, speaking two words.

Cultivation, cultivation!

What is cultivation?

Actually life is also part of cultivation, sometimes comprehending the Dao too much, one needs to find some seasoning in life.

At this moment He Pingsheng, his whole body transparent, the entire person unprecedentedly transparent.

He took a deep breath, then closed his eyes and fell into deep sleep.

Literal meaning, just a mortal's sleep.

One sleep lasted several days, only then rising with full spirit.

He Pingsheng sat cross-legged on the ground, waved a hand, two beautiful butterflies appeared before him.

On the butterflies' bodies draped nine-colored hues, flying they would leave traces of radiance.

Very beautiful.

"Master... Master..."

The Nine-Colored Divine Butterflies greeted He Pingsheng, pity they still cannot speak now, can only communicate through Divine Sense.

He Pingsheng released a thread of his own Divine Sense for them to devour.

These several decades, the Nine-Colored Divine Butterflies' cultivation progress could be described as god-speed.

In one breath cultivated to the fourth layer of the Divine General Realm.

Naturally, their cultivation was still far from catching up to He Pingsheng's Divine Spirit realm, so the divine butterflies consumed very little of his divine sense each time.

It was completely within an acceptable range.

Next came cultivation!

Comprehending the Dao!

Devouring the Shuang Shen Dan to raise his cultivation.

In truth, at this time He Pingsheng was merely at the Divine Spirit realm; when breaking through cultivation, one did not necessarily have to break through the Dao Miasma — one could simply continuously swallow pills to raise cultivation and shatter the flesh barrier.

But He Pingsheng felt that since he had devoured the 【Nine Apertures Exquisite】 and prematurely opened his divine apertures, if he did not solidly comprehend the Dao, it would be a tremendous waste.

Therefore, compared to ordinary Divine Spirit realm cultivators, his cultivation advancement speed was still very slow.

One year!

Two years!

Three years!

……

In a flash, eighty years had passed.

Eighty years passed, and He Pingsheng's cultivation had hardly made any progress; his realm had also failed to improve.

However, Old Cao had returned.

"Two pieces of good news!"

Old Cao looked at He Pingsheng with a beaming smile and said, "Young Master... I hope I didn't disturb your cultivation?"

"No!" He Pingsheng waved his hand. "Speak!"

Old Cao said, "The first piece of good news: Lady dispatched Zhou Qing Mei to Xuanji City to see if anyone was trying to investigate your whereabouts by any means!"

"Now it can basically be confirmed!"

"No one!"

"No one inquired about you!"

"Oh!" He Pingsheng let out a breath of relief: it seems what he did back in the Collapsed Dao Fallen Yellow was correct after all.

"And the other one!" he asked. "How is Yu Si?"

Old Cao said, "This is the second piece of good news... hehehe... this old servant spread these two hundred thousand superior-grade divine crystals all around, up and down, left and right!"

"Now, Senior Yu Si's imprisonment term has finally been changed!"

"Before, it was said to be six Hou!"

"Now it has become fifty Ji......"

"Er...... that is...... five thousand Yuan of time!"

He Pingsheng was instantly overjoyed: "Wonderful!"

Before it was six Hou.

The Divine Realm's time measurement units: one Ji equals one hundred Yuan, one Hou equals one hundred Ji!

Six Hou equals sixty thousand Yuan of time.

And now, the time confining Yu Si has changed from sixty thousand Yuan to five thousand Yuan.

It can be said to be reduced by ten times!

"Not bad, Old Cao......" He Pingsheng said. "You've worked hard!"

"I didn't work hard!" Old Cao shook his head. "It's all thanks to the divine gold; as they say, money makes the ghost turn the millstone......"

"Hehehe......"

"Rest assured, Young Master. When our old He family has money later, I'll go grease palms again!"

"Perhaps with a thousand Yuan of time, Senior Yu Si will be able to come out."
