Chapter 254: Chapter 153: Plotting, the cave dwelling at the border!

Heavenly City was swarming with sorrow, but Gu Shanhai was merely bored, wanting to see rivers of blood.

Well, that was unlikely, mainly because he couldn’t actually see it. The Blood Barrier Pill had triggered a blood barrier that, like an invisible bloodthirsty entity, had drained all the Heavenly People of their blood.

"Yawn~ Another boring day." Gu Shanhai sat listlessly at the entrance of the Medicine Garden, watching the gate. He had successfully landed a job at the Medicine Garden, although it turned out to be somewhat different from what he had imagined.

He thought he was going to be a medicine farmer, but he ended up as a security guard instead. This twist in events had saved him at least forty years of detours!

As for the various herbs in the Medicine Garden, Gu Shanhai glanced at them twice and then abandoned them. He realized that these herbs were currently withering and were not the extraordinary treasures he had imagined. They were merely infused with energy. If he wanted to refine and nurture them as Spirit Plants, he would first have to drive out the Spiritual Energy within them. In that case, they were not much different from ordinary herbs.

They were unlike those peculiar flowers and extraordinary treasures that were blessed with unique abilities.

Therefore, he gave up on them.

To ordinary mortals in the Mortal World, these so-called treasures were merely tinged with Spiritual Energy. Consuming them intake Spiritual Energy to form True Qi—not really naturally nurtured treasures.

Like cucumbers painted green.

This realization had made Gu Shanhai lose interest. However, since he had already taken the job, he just sat there and watched.

"I wonder how many people need to die before disturbing the Martial Arts True Immortals." Gu Shanhai counted the days on his fingers. He had been here for a month and a half, and the Blood Barrier Pill had been effective half a month ago. The effect was potent; he could feel the sweet air with a single sniff and gain a second of life with two sniffs. The distribution, however, was uneven, leading to times when he could inhale it and times when he could not.

The main issue was that his Medicine Garden was too far from the city center, almost outside the ten rings, so it drifted over in lesser quantities.

Still, it didn’t matter. What was his would be his, and no one could take it away.

For others, the emanation from the Blood Barrier Pill was as toxic as a hefty dose of fierce medicine, but for Gu Shanhai, the formed blood energy was a substantial tonic. His self-made pills, of course, were tailor-made for himself.

The principle was to first inhale it into the body where the Spirit Plants would receive and transform it into the nutrients he needed. If he absorbed it directly, there would be an effect, but not as efficient as the secondary processed absorption.

"Counting the time, I guess around twenty to thirty percent of the population has died by now. The dropping of the Blood Barrier Pill was a bit slow."

"I should have poisoned the water source with infectious deadly toxins."

Gu Shanhai felt some regret about this, not that he did not want to, but he had not figured it out before. During his days as a security guard in the Medicine Garden, while perfecting the "Heavenly Gang Child Skill," he had also devised quite a few untested mass extinction pills.

It wasn’t that he was dark-hearted; it was just really irritating to face the Sky Dragon People who came every day to order him around, making him dearly want to kill them, and so these lethal means were born.

Luckily, he was rational enough not to throw these things into the water source. These untested substances, he did not know how effective they might be—potentially causing instant death or severe side effects. This could easily interfere with the effects of the Blood Barrier Pill.

The reason why Heavenly People often visited was indeed due to the mortality rates necessitating the mobilization of herbs, especially needed by first-class Heavenly People; second and third-class Heavenly People weren’t noble enough to harvest directly from the Medicine Garden.

Unfortunately, in front of death, there were no classes among Heavenly People.

"Speaking of which, I’ve recently noticed that the geology of Heavenly City seems to be having some issues." Gu Shanhai observed the slightly mounding hillocks in the Medicine Garden.

These hillocks were not made by Gu Shanhai, but had risen gradually on their own, as if pushed by invisible hands from the outside in.

This made Gu Shanhai think of something—that this crack-formed hidden space seemed to be healing itself. Being a wound of the world, lacking Spiritual Energy circulation for counterbalance, recovery was quite normal.

Gu Shanhai quickly calculated a divination to verify his guess, which naturally spoke for itself.

"I just wonder whether the Martial Arts True Immortals are dead asleep or not. When it all seals up and they haven’t woken up, it won’t do. I need to give them a hand." Gu Shanhai was indeed a zealously righteous man, often referred to by the nickname ’Little Timely Rain of Death.’

Thinking this, he perked up.

Without the hidden space of Heavenly City, these Martial Arts True Immortals would be as vulnerable as paper tigers, definitely not daring to fight him.

Anywho dared make a move would be like throwing themselves into lava to roast alive.

"So, find them and help them get up!" Gu Shanhai’s plan was quite serious; tuck an explosive Mana halo under each of their beds to ensure they woke up smoothly.

Hence, the main issue now was how to locate these Martial Arts True Immortals.

Gu Shanhai had previously tried to find them but found no relevant information. He had even tried Soul Search on various Elders and Stewards, still to no avail.

The connection between Martial Arts True Immortals and the Martial Pavilion had always been one-way. When contacting, the other party would not appear in person but communicated through remote transmissions. It must be said, they really knew how to play it safe.

Probably the reborn Martial Arts True Immortal had adopted the most fashionable survival tactic of the contemporary era.
