With Cultivation Simulator in a Chaotic World-Chapter 94 - 93: Golden Relics and Longevity Pill

After Great Lii left the Capital Region, the fields became fewer and fewer.

However, Great Lii’s grain yield is enormous, even surpassing the yield of hybrid rice from Jiang Ming’s previous life. Jiang Ming suspects that this grain absorbs the Spiritual Qi in the air.

In the Capital Region, grains are regularly transported to various cities, and villages relatively close to the cities also deliver grains to the cities for material exchange, ensuring the food supply for the large population.

And the Martial Artist’s demand for grain is quite high.

It’s surprising that Mingwu City can cultivate so many Martial Artists.

Li Mo heard and smiled, saying: "Near Mingwu City, there is an Exotic Beast known as the blood bull, their meat is quite beneficial for Qi-Blood and can serve as food. However, the blood bull only appears around Mingwu City, making it a specialty."

"Blood bull meat cannot be preserved for long; it needs to be consumed quickly, or the essence will be lost."

"You can’t get this stuff elsewhere, Young Master Jiang should try it; it’s quite beneficial for Qi-Blood."

"Oh?" Jiang Ming was somewhat curious.

After listening to Li Mo’s explanation, Jiang Ming didn’t pay much attention, and followed Li Mo towards the direction of the Xun Family.

Mingwu City is very large, and Li Mo mentioned that it can accommodate nearly two million people.

This figure is astounding in comparison to the ancient times of Jiang Ming’s previous life.

However, in this world, there is the interference of Extraordinary Power, and crops differ from those in Jiang Ming’s previous life.

"Golden Relics! Golden Relics!"

A figure collided with Jiang Ming, but Jiang Ming remained steady while the other person fell to the ground.

This was a middle-aged man with a somewhat pale face, who was about to curse but paused when he saw Li Mo beside Jiang Ming, then apologized a couple of times before scrambling away.

Jiang Ming squinted his eyes, looking in that direction.

After undergoing Netherworld Cold Spring reinforcement, Jiang Ming’s eyesight was clear and sharp.

It was a platform, on which a thin monk sat motionless with closed eyes, like a sculpture.

Below the platform, people from all sides ran forth, dropping to their knees without a word, their heads unbothered by pain as they fervently kowtowed to the ground.

Each face was fervent to the extreme.

"What’s this?"

"That’s a monk from the Great Compassion Temple, using himself as a guide, helping believers gain access to Paradise after death."

Paradise? Ridiculous.

"What’s Golden Relics?" Jiang Ming asked further.

"Golden Relics are the product of monks who have reached the peak of cultivation and entered Nirvana, representing the monks’ full dedication to believers, achieving perfection in their deeds, exchanging their lives to grant believers permission to enter Paradise, and themselves having arrived there in advance."

"Followers in Mingwu City take pride in worshiping a Golden Relics."

Li Mo spoke while also offering a Buddhist gesture towards the platform.

"Do you believe in this?"

Li Mo chuckled, "According to their description, Buddhas and Deities are distinct from the gods within malevolent spirits. Regardless of existence, offering a prayer costs me nothing."

"This is what the followers think too. The Great Compassion Temple never asks for donations; instead, it provides them with supplies."

Jiang Ming was silent for a while but did not speak.

He only knew one principle.

There’s no such thing as a free lunch in the world.

"Does everyone in the city believe in this?"

"No, those who believe in the Great Compassion Temple are mostly from impoverished or ordinary families, while the aristocrats worship the Longevity Temple."

"Hence, the battle between Buddhist Dao and Longevity Temple is somewhat intense in Mingwu City."

"Unlike the elusive Golden Relics, the Longevity Pill genuinely extends life."

Jiang Ming shook his head internally.

Life-extending pills exist? Of course, they do.

In the Jiuzhou Cultivation Realm, alchemists study the pharmacology of the world, even fusing herbs originally without life-extending functions to create Life-extending Pills, not to mention those natural treasures with inherent life-extending abilities.

But whether it’s a pill or a natural treasure, anything related to life extension is exorbitantly pricey.

When Zhu Chen reached the end of his first lifetime, he sought a Longevity Pill, but it was only a Third-grade Pill that extended life by five years, yet even with Zhu Chen’s accumulated status and connections of that lifetime, it was unobtainable.

The Longevity Pill here? Likely similar to the Longevity Pill concocted by alchemists in ancient times of the previous life.

The two quickly arrived at the Xun Family.

With Li Mo’s introduction, Jiang Ming met the Xun Family Master, who Li Mo had frequently mentioned.

Jiang Ming entered the study, where the Xun Family Master was reading a book.

The Xun Family Master wore a dark blue robe, was tall and stately, exuding a refined and approachable aura, creating an instant sense of goodwill.

But what Jiang Ming noticed was the formidable aura emanating from him.

Heart Lamp Immortal Master! At least stronger than those two Immortal Masters who manipulate ice and fire in Evergreen City.

The Xun Family Master saw Jiang Ming, set down the book, and displayed a gentle smile.

"You must be Young Friend Jiang, Li Mo has told me about you, I’m Xun Yi."

"Since Young Friend Jiang is out training and with the recent incident in Evergreen City, you may stay at my Xun Family for now. I can grant Young Friend Jiang the status of Earth-level Honored Guest Elder, with all the benefits and treatment accorded to such a status. If Young Friend Jiang ever wishes to leave, just inform me."

Xun Yi spoke generously.

But then, the tone changed as he asked, "But I’m still unaware of which family or Main City stands behind Young Friend Jiang? I know people across the nearby Main Cities, perhaps I know someone from Young Friend Jiang’s family."

A unique wave spread.

Makes Jiang Ming involuntarily speak the truth.

Yet with the operation of the Calm Heart Technique, those waves were dispelled.

While Xun Yi appeared gentle on the surface, he had secretly employed abilities to probe.

He wasn’t Li Mo, gullibly believing someone based purely on mental assumptions.

Jiang Ming maintained a calm demeanor. He looked at Xun Yi and suddenly smiled, saying, "Elder Xun, there’s no need to inquire about this."

"I will leave when it’s time to leave, and I entrust Elder Xun to look after me during this period."

Jiang Ming bowed respectfully.

Xun Yi’s expression remained unchanged, as if nothing had transpired, and he easily replied, "No problem, Young Friend Jiang should consider the Xun Family as his home, haha."

"However, Li Mo mentioned that Young Friend Jiang holds a Chaofeng Pavilion identity in Evergreen City."

Jiang Ming nodded, handing the token at his waist to Xun Yi, saying: "I learned through testing that I lack the potential to ignite the Heart Lamp, I ask Elder Xun to handle this token for me."

Xun Yi received the token and nodded.

"Since that’s the case, I shall take my leave." Jiang Ming departed.

Xun Yi casually waved his hand, and a figure appeared beside him.

"Take this object to the Chaofeng Pavilion and check the testing records of this person."

Xun Yi’s gaze turned to Jiang Ming’s departing figure, a trace of doubt showing in his eyes.
