The Peerless Beauty Stuck With Me

Chapter 1280 - 1279: Treasure Hunt by Points

Fortunately, Xiao Bai is fine. You think the people in the Divine Realm, how are they more terrifying than those in the Land of Immortals? They just take the children without any compassion?"Li Shengxuan said a few sentences but choked several times. Seeing Tang Xiaobai alright, her mood improved significantly.

"From now on, there must be two people by Xiao Bai's side. Society is complex, and the more it is like this, the less careless we can be."

Tang Rao worried about making the atmosphere too heavy, so he didn't say much to them.

Back at the Kao Shan Sect, Tang Rao took out the book given to him by the old hag. Despite her poor temper and lack of morals, her handwriting was quite good.

No one is perfect, but there's no person who is entirely bad either.

"Contraceptive Pill?"

Tang Rao saw this on the first few pages, jolting his spirits wide awake.

What the hell is a Contraceptive Pill? I barely have time to want kids, only an utterly wicked person like the old woman would make such a thing happen.

"Death Water?"

The more Tang Rao read, the more startled he became. The Death Water section even had illustrations of various death forms after consuming it, with methods ranging from piercing intestines to being completely devoured by venomous insects attracted by the poison; the list of grotesque deaths seemed endless.

"Luckily, I didn't mess around with the old hag earlier. Any random poison could have taken my life!"

Tang Rao, filled with lingering fear, deeply understood the saying: women have hearts like serpents and scorpions, it's only a matter of whether she holds that thought toward you; a single thought could kill you thousands of times.

The book described the methods to refine these poisons in great detail.

Even a complete novice like Xiao Bai would surely understand it.

Tang Rao was puzzled as to why it had to be him, making him take so much advantage of easily finding people with Taotie Bloodline in the Divine Realm, even feeling a bit embarrassed about it.

Tang Rao grasped all the book's knowledge in one night. Understanding the knowledge felt simple to him, but finding the materials in the book was not.

Nowadays, even attempting to refine poison requires resources. And what are those resources? They are the herbs in the book, the crystal cores of demon beasts; altogether, countless treasures of heaven and earth, numerous crystal cores, could make Tang Rao a poison master.

One day an alchemist becomes a master of poison-making, and Tang Rao is the only one in the Divine Realm who fused mastery of poisons and elixir pills.

Thinking about it, Tang Rao was extremely excited.

"All brothers of Kao Shan Sect, from today onwards, move to Zijing City. The Kao Shan Sect formation will also relocate there. Please prepare to move."

Tang Rao acted like a dedicated property manager, delivering the notice within Illusion City.

Excitement filled Illusion City. As everyone rejoiced, Tang Rao added: "Starting tomorrow, your training will change from physical to strength training. I'll give you a month to find treasures; different items correspond to different points, and the more treasures you find, the more cultivation resources you'll receive."

This announcement made everyone even more excited.

The people of Kao Shan Sect wanted to go out to prove themselves, but Tang Rao's concept differed. Outside, there's a risk these people might be killed mistakenly; young birds must be trained by the elder ones before venturing out, right?

However, Tang Rao was entirely different today, surprisingly allowing everyone to go out and engage in practical combat.

In this way, they could truly unleash their nature, discovering their limits.

"Long live the boss, boss, we love you to death."

Tang Rao felt a bit embarrassed at these declarations of love.

Tang Rao was almost shy to confess, "Brothers, actually, I just want you to maximize your advantages to bring me back more treasures, allowing me to refine poisons and elixir pills, that's all. Don't think too highly of me, just don't treat me too well."

Of course, these words were only known to Tang Rao, his loyal brothers were still so pure, he couldn't destroy their innocence with a single sentence.

"The higher grade treasures and demon beast crystal cores you find, the higher the rewards, within a month, start now."

With a command given, the brothers left in the bungalow didn't even bother packing, heading up the mountain at night.

One night, no one knew what happened in Kao Shan Sect, people outside just knew Kao Shan Sect members acted as if crazed, waving torches while rushing through the mountain.

Those outsiders thought some miracle had occurred and also went up the mountain.

The impact was astounding; the place hadn't been this lively, especially during the night, for a long time.

"Boss, found nothing last night, too many people on the mountain, all the good treasures got dug out, our commotion was too big, we should have moved up quietly, wouldn't that have been better."

Tang Rao smiled silently; Kao Shan Sect's actions were too high-profile. Even if they confessed there's nothing up there, no one would believe them; at least that mountain would stay lively for another week or so.

"No worries, I anticipated this and those mountains can only provide low-point items, hence a waste of time, what good does it do you?"

Tang Rao spoke with reason, low-point items, even if found, bending over would have wasted your time; if you're going to spend time on low-point finds, would it not be better to risk finding high-point items? Maybe a standard herb is worth one percent of a rare herb's points.

In this count, it's not Tang Rao that loses, but those unwilling to try or risk things.

"Boss, in this area, treasures are really scarce, could you direct us a bit, so we at least have a chance to find some?"

Someone proposed a suggestion, Tang Rao thought it was valid; he knew where the good stuff was, giving the brothers a clear path was better than them pondering for an ingenious approach in the surroundings.

If they couldn't find anything, who suffers the most? It's Tang Rao.

Failing to gather, meant no practice material, without practice material, when visiting the old hag, he had no accomplishment to show, yet didn't know how severe the consequences might be.

"Not far from Tingzhou lies Lion Mountain; Lion Mountain may have some gain, you might try going there to look."

Tang Rao sincerely suggested a place, but hadn't expected everyone to be dumbstruck.

Lion Mountain, what kind of place is it? A minor deity wanting to visit Lion Mountain?

Before going, tales of Lion Mountain alone could scare someone half to death.

Tang Rao even let going to Lion Mountain, such a significant issue, pass lightly, feeling nothing special about it.

"How come, when I mention Lion Mountain, there's no reaction. Is Lion Mountain undesirable, or do the treasures inside not lure you?"

No, no not the unappealing items, but we undeniably don't dare even to consider what's inside!
