Turns out I'm a Great Cultivator
Chapter 678: Gifts from Experts
Goddess Nuwa, Empress, and Tong Tian were on their way to the portal. Along the way, Tong Tian tries, though unsuccessfully, to calm the emotional rollercoaster raging within him. ‘I can die with no regrets once I return to my hometown. I wonder what the seventh dimension looks like now and how different the Prehistoric era is now because it has become the Area of the Gods.’ He did not dare to think of healing his wound because he clearly knew that it was impossible.
Even if his experts could cure him, why would he do it when Tong Tian was a stranger to him? He was not Tong Tian before, a person who was afraid of death. The three of them did not say much along the way as Goddess Nuwa and the Empress could feel Tong Tian was in no mood to chat. Soon, the three of them arrived at the portal.
“Greetings Empress and Goddess Nuwa,” says Yang Jing. His pupils shrank rapidly as he looked at Tong Tian. “You ... you ..” He thought he was hallucinating as he stared intently at Tong Tian.
Back in the Prehistoric times, the mighty Saints had brought about countless calamities. There were the calamities of dragons and phoenixes, the calamities of the Coronation of the Gods, the calamities of the Journey to the West.The coronation of the Gods was terrifying because it was the moment when all Saints and their followers fought among them. selves. The old man before him was the one who suffered the most during that time.
The founder of Tong Tian was not only banned by Hongjun but also his religion was destroyed, which instantly dropped him to the bottom of the ladder status. Yang Jing herself remembered the times she fought against Tong Tian's followers. The disaster only ended when everyone decided to stop fighting amongst themselves after much reflection. Now, all the grudges and resentments they harbored for each other faded into a dreamlike state as if it had never happened.
‘He's Founder Tong Tian!’ thought Yang Jian as he looked at Goddess Nuwa and Empress for the confirmation they gave with a nod of the head. He then turned to look at Tong Tian with a complicated look in his eyes. Tong Tian also looked at him with the same gaze as he did not believe that Yang Jing, whose existence was like an ant to him, had grown so rapidly in his cultivation that his level far surpassed his own. That was his life's fate.
They stared at each other for a while without saying anything. Finally, Yang Jing was the first to speak. “Halo, Small Tong, long time ago. How did you end up like this? It seems you're not doing well. ”
‘Did he just call me ... Little Tong?’ Tong Tian felt his pride collapse. ‘I am from the same generation as Yuanshi Tianzun, and you, as his great follower, dare to call me Little Tong? You should have treated me with the respect that a grandfather of your Master deserves!’
“You b-star! Is this your way of speaking to your Teacher's brother? Where's your manners?” reprimand Cultivator Junjun with red face.
At that moment, the Jade Emperor, the Junjun Cultivator, and Juling Shen had arrived as well and they all became shocked upon seeing Tong Tian. “Tong Small ... Is that you?”
Tong Tian almost vomited blood. He hated himself for being so weak. He pointed at the group with trembling fingers, trying to get the words out of his mouth. “What are you all proud of? You all just got lucky! Do you know what I've been through over my years away from the Prehistoric era? All those experiences made me who I am now and that is something you all will never understand!”
“Are you seriously comparing your experience with our experience?”
“Have you ever drank Chaos Spiritual Water?”
“Have you ever eaten Spiritual Root?”
“Have you ever eaten the Elite meat of Wisdom?
“Have you ever eaten a dish made by an expert?”
“Have you ever fought against the Wisdom Elite?”
Those questions were unceasingly thrown out by Tong Tian. He felt a prick in his heart with every new question. She wiped her tears and in a voice meant to sound powerful but definitely failed, she said, “You just got where you are in an inappropriate way, she said, whereas I get everything with my own two hands!” He was so angry that he would rather die at the hands of a demon than suffer through the humiliation he had endured.
“Have you seen yourself in the mirror? You're one step away from being put in a coffin! ” Yang Jing said as she shook her head. Then, his face turned serious as he said, “In addition to joking, let's quickly return to the Heavenly Palace and find a cure for you.”
Tong Tian first nodded his head before shaking his head. “I will return to the Heavenly Palace but I do not want to be treated. I'm fine letting my injuries be what they are.”
“Are you afraid there will be no cure? Don't worry, I'm sure we'll find a way!” The group could only sigh when they saw how his appearance had changed. Without saying anything more, they all quickly went to the Area of the Gods.
“Is this the Area of the Gods?” tong Tian asked as he looked down at the familiar yet unknown area around him with many years in his eyes. “This looks amazing! The Eldritch Era must have been lucky to have the blessing of an expert. There is no need to fear the fourth dimension now that all of you have advanced so much in your cultivation. ”
Then, the happiness in his voice turned into sadness. “It's a pity that I can't join your battle in the future.” The reception of his previous death was shaken by the sight before him. The Heavenly Palace did not know what to say about this and that, they were just silent.
Suddenly, the Junjun Cultivator offered him a peach. The peach looked similar to the Flat Peach from before, but this one was more refined and contained a more majestic aura.
‘Is this Spiritual Root?’ Tong Tian carried the peaches to his nose to inhale. He did not directly bite him for fear that the influx of Spiritual Qi would create too many shocks on his heavily injured body and thus, hasten his death.
“Enough for me to kiss the legendary Spiritual Root,” Tong Tian said with a smile.
“How did you get hurt so badly? Who did this to you? When did you enter the fourth dimension?” asked the Junjun Cultivator who caused everyone's eyes to blink coldly. The injuries Tong Tian sustained were very serious and very strange. It was not caused by ordinary means and only the most ruthless people could do such a thing.
Tong Tian's eyes flashed with fear as he thought back to what had happened. “Year-years ago, I coincidentally discovered an earth-shattering secret ..” Here he hesitated and was about to speak again when a pink-cheeked Heavenly Soldier rushed over.
“Goddess Nanan and Goddess Dragin are coming!” he shouted loudly.
“What? They coming?”
“Quickly, prepare to welcome them!”
The group was thrown into a state of chaos as they all positioned themselves to greet the two girls. Tong Tian froze because he had heard all about these two girls and their strength.
Soon, the two arrived with the Heavenly Guardians who had shown the way there.
Jade Emperor and Empress bowed politely and said, “Salam, Goddess Nanan, Goddess Dragin.”
Instantly, everyone's expression turned into excitement and they couldn't wait to see what the delivery was. However, they did not forget their manners. “It's an excellent expert. Actually, we didn't do much, and rather, we'd be dead if it wasn't for all of you.”
“Oh, does that mean you don't want it? Also, because Dragin and I are still a little hungry. We go now,” said Nanan with a naughty grin.
Everyone's faces turned stiff and they were filled with panic when they saw Nanan and Dragin turning around to leave.
‘Sial, I shouldn't have said that! Why should I be cool?’ The Celestial Emperor chased after them and cleared his throat. “Ahem, however, we dare not reject his kindness and promise to serve him better in the future. We won't disappoint him.”
The Junjun cultivator quickly walked towards them as well, and in a sincere voice, he asked, “What did the expert this time give us? Can you show it to us? ”
“Hehehe, I hope you learned a lesson not to be too feigning next time,” said Dragin and Nanan who seemed to have horns growing on their heads.
Nanan held up the wine barrel aloft for everyone to see. “Brother Li made this wine from rainbow deer blood and I can testify that the alcohol content is very high!”
‘Blood of rainbow deer? That meant it was the core of the Wisdom Elite! I can't even imagine the kind of transformation that would occur after blood was fermented by experts!’ Everyone looked at the wine barrels with saliva coming out from the corners of their mouths.
“This egg is valuable. Brother Li said that deer blood is very good for the body and has amazing medicinal properties. It can refresh the kidneys with Yang energy and heal all the damage to the five organs, ” Dragin said.
‘Well, if the expert says it's precious wine then who are we to say it's not?’ Everyone can't wait to drink wine.
Suddenly, the disciples of the Junjun Cultivator and Goddess Nuwa shrank rapidly. “Good for body? Medicinal properties? Refreshing kidneys?” They quickly turned to look at Tong Tian with a strange expression on their faces.
“Tong Tian, there is hope for you!” said Cultivator Junjun vigorously.
“This wine might be able to heal your wounds very well!” the Goddess Nuwa.
“Bulkah?” tong Tian asked in disbelief. He was not sure if the expert would allow him to drink wine either.
“The odds must be high,” Xing Ya said enigmaticly, suddenly appearing on the scene standing with her hands folded behind her. “You all have been chosen by experts to protect him while he is in his highest state of existence in all dimensions. That means that in return, you will all be protected as well. Therefore, it makes sense that he will clear all your obstacles at the most critical points such as how Wine appears when you need it most for your injury. All this has been done long before this.”
“Is what you said true? The expert sent wine here just to save me? ” asked Tong Tian as a glimmer of hope began to grow in his heart.
The Junjun cultivator opened the wine barrel and the place was immediately filled with the scent of wine. The smell alone was enough to make them drunk and their throats started rolling around in anticipation of drinking wine.
“Well, Tongtong, why don't you taste the wine and find out for yourself?” ask Cultivator Junjun. The best case scenario is that he will be cured with wine and the worst case? He was about to explode due to too much Spiritual Qi.
“Why not?” tong Tian said without hesitation. “Pour for me!” This was probably his only chance to recover from his injuries and it was a risk he was willing to take. Moreover, drinking such good wine would be a better way than waiting for old age to claim it.
Everyone smiled and was not surprised at the answer. The Junjun Cultivator poured wine and gave the glass to Tong Tian. The wine was not as red as usual, but it was the palest pink which was a sign of its medicinal properties.
Cultivator Tongtong saw the wine and wild thoughts started racing in his head.
‘Is this good wine really made from rainbow deer blood? A Demon Emperor from the fourth dimension? Even hearing his name once made me tremble in my boots, and now I hold a glass of wine made from his blood in my hands? I can't believe it! After all, he was a Wisdom Elite! Is this the survival of the fittest? Well then, fuck it, I don't want to be weak anymore! I want to return to my previous glory!’
Then, with determination in his eyes, he gulped down a glass of wine at once. Immediately, the wine spread throughout his body and his spiciness made his throat ache. He felt his entire body burn and his skin begin to peel. At the same time, he could feel an indescribable terrifying energy seeping through each of his pores as a fresh wave of refreshing new energy awakened within him.
The new energy was like the first shoots of spring—at first it was insignificant but had a huge potential of vitality. Her new layer of skin was flushed red due to her pink health, her white hair was shining brightly, her face became like a child again, and even her stooped body became upright. A heavy aura emanated from his body, growing stronger and stronger before gradually condensing into a storm.
“It's coming! It's coming! It will come!”
“His strength recovered. The wine worked!”
“The aura is still getting stronger! I guess when you hit rock bottom, the only way left is up! ”
“One more time, I am amazed by the experts!”
Joy ate Tong Tian and she started shouting happily. He could clearly feel his strength returning and he could not get enough of that feeling. Slowly, things began to die down and he realized that he had even surpassed his old Saint status and was now a Chaos Daluo Golden Immortal.
“I'm healed! I am completely healed and now I am stronger than ever!” tong Tian shouted in a trembling voice. He could not believe that with a glass of wine, he had stepped into a new level.
“Silence. It was only the level of the Chaos Daluo Golden Immortal. No need to make a fuss about it. Save it for when you have reached the level of the Wisdom Elite, ” Yang Jing joked.
‘Wah, b*that brash little bastard,’ thought Tong Tian. Then, he laughed coldly and said, “The only reason your level is higher than mine is because you met the expert faster. Just wait! I will definitely surpass you one day and when that day comes, I will teach you manners!”
