Chapter 320 – Florida Man Claims He Saved a Youth's Life by Injecting Liquid into His Body. The Youth Was an Adult Doll.
One finger-sized soul stone could be traded for 1,000 essence stones. After breaking several boulders of soul stones into smaller ones, Tang Tian had over a million soul stones left.
In the end, Tang Tian paid 100,000 soul stones to the mannequin and acquired the deed. He immediately put on a Tang Clan Manor's signboard on the front and informed his other clan mates.
Tang Tian wasn't the only one who exploited their newly earned commission to buy a property. Han Meng, Han Hao, and Tiger Swordsman purchased a penthouse worth 30 million essence stones. After securing their big homes, they copied Tang Tian and put on the signboards of their names. Then, they bragged about their new houses to the other colleagues.
Hua Jiashan and Dongfang Mei were more modest. They chose a two-bedroom condominium room instead of a big house. Unlike their greedy colleagues, they had a better grasp of Leo's nature.After purchasing the room, they visited the room and discovered that the usable interior space was wider than the advertised blueprint. Instead of getting only two bedrooms and one bathroom, the couple secured a three-story penthouse with a swimming pool.
Wu Buyi was different. He kept all his soul stones with him as he already had a house.
Beatrice also kept the soul stones. She returned to Leo's bus and gave everything to Esen instead of using them herself.
…
By the end of the day, a hundred cultivators purchased Leo's houses or condominium rooms. Only Leo's close aides paid in full. As for the rest, they fell for the installment scheme.
The mannequins brought the soul stones and essence stones to the bus and reported to Leo, who read the transaction reports.
Leo was disappointed."I gave them soul stones to cultivate, but those idiots use them to buy my land. Seriously, how long will they reach the entity realm and be useful for once?"
Giving up on the elders, Leo shifted his attention to Wu Buyi and young talents. He wondered if he should start accepting direct disciples to encourage the younger generations.
After a thorough contemplation, Leo decided to give the talented youngsters a push. He called Gao Yan, Tang San, Jin Yong, and Yao Qiqi over the next day morning.
…
The morning of the next day, Leo gathered Gao Yan, Jin Yong, Tang San, and Yao Qiqi at the waterpark of his shopping complex. Esen also tagged along as she had nothing better to do.
Leo inspected their cultivation base. Gao Yan and Jin Yong were already deities. Yao Qiqi stuck at the true immortal stage while Tang San was the weakest. On the other hand, Esen dual-cultivated with Leo a lot. She already condensed a million-star galaxy in her dantian universe, and she was ready to tackle the sage realm.
Seeing the promising youths and his wife, Leo announced.
"I'll be direct. You guys suck!"
"What?" Esen was annoyed, "You called us here to call us 'SUCK'?!"
The others were also taken aback. They lowered their gaze. Only Tang San tilted his head as he admitted that he was the worst here.
"No, I'm here to accelerate your growth. You kids take too long to grow!" Leo clarified.
Gao Yan and Jin Yong wryly smiled. By their standard, their growth rate was already superior to the local standard. As for Yao Qiqi, she pouted.
"Senior, are you looking down on us?" Yao Qiqi protested.
"Again, no." Leo sighed, "I'm saying that none of you are using the full potential of our facilities."
"Eh?" Everybody was interested.
"How many times have you used the Tessaract Time Chamber so far?"
Gao Yan laughed, "About seven? Maybe?"
Jin Yong clicked his tongue, "Six, senior."
Yao Qiqi pouted, "Only two."
Esen snorted, "Zero!"
Tang San dryly laughed, "What's the time chamber?"
Leo facepalmed. He was disappointed in them.
"None of you have exploited your privilege as my workers. If I were you, I would have queued in front of the time chamber whenever I have a day off."
"…"
Everybody but Tang San and Esen was embarrassed. They counted their hands and calculated how many times they could have spent their time in that time chamber.
Gao Yan whined, "I would have done so if the queue wasn't so long, senior! Do you know how long it is to get our queue these days? Only four people can enter at a time!"
Leo accepted the reason. However, at the moment, no line existed as commoners and rogue cultivators couldn't enter the shopping complex anymore.
"That was the past. But now, the time chamber is empty. It's about time we exclusively enter it and train y'all!"
Gao Yan and Jin Yong finally figured out why Leo repelled mortals and non-employees away from the shopping complex. They widely grinned and gave Leo a thumbs up.
"We thought you excluded the others because of the bad decision. We are so shortsighted!"
"Yeah, you're shortsighted, alright. So, here's the plan. I'm going to tutor you personally… starting from you, Tang San!"
"Me" Tang San pointed his fingertip at his face, confused.
"Come with me. Tomorrow, it's Gao Yan's queue. Next is Jin Yong, Yao Qiqi… and you too, wifey."
Esen frowned, "Do I have to?"
Leo shrugged, "You can't just sit at home and leech my energy every day. You need to practice how to use that new power, too. The time chamber provides a stage for that."
"Eh, how troublesome. Can I just stay home until I give birth?"
"…"
At that moment, everybody looked at Esen in shock.
"Give birth?"
Esen smirked and mocked Leo, "Congrats, husband. I'm pregnant. You're going to be a father."
"…"
Leo slightly dropped his jaw, flabbergasted. Then, he remembered that Ivy used to tell him before that their wedding day's deeds guaranteed her impregnation.
"I guess you can stay home and cultivate. No need to exercise." Leo changed his mind.
"Correct answer! Now, can I go home? I want to eat something spicy and sour."
"…Fine."
Esen giggled and left the meeting.
…
After Esen had left the meeting, the boys smiled at Leo, "Congratulations, Lord Florida Man! You're going to be a father!"
Yao Qiqi was also excited, "Am I going to be an elder sister soon?"
Leo was speechless. He deeply sighed and changed the topic.
"Enough with my personal life. Now, Tang San. Come with me to the time chamber. I'll guide you myself!"
"O-Okay!"
.
.
.
Tang San and Leo entered the time chamber together. As for Hua Taixu, Leo kicked him out and asked him to take a vacation.
Upon getting inside the time chamber, Leo explained the perks of this place and the prepared cultivation resources within the blank room.
Tang San was astonished. He was excited for the new life.
"Wow. This is even better than I imagined!" Tang San praised the facility.
"Enough with the praise. For now, I need to know what kind of cultivation method you are using. Then, I can guide you."
"Yes, master!"
Tang San sat cross-legged and began cultivating miasma and monster Qi. The yin-yang Qi in the environment was converted into dark miasma because of Tang San, and they entered his body.
Leo observed the nature of the miasma and discovered that they were similar to impure yin Qi. He frowned and inspected Tang San's internal organs and constitution.
His meridians entangled like messy computer wires and a bunch of wired earphones bundling together. Tang San's Qi ignored the meridians and enveloped his entire body like water seeping into a sponge.
After a while, the impure Qi transformed into nutrition for Tang San's muscles and bone marrow. The bundling meridians slowly merged together into one, but they were far from completion.
After a brief inspection, Leo asked the system.
'Is his current method good for him? If it's not so, what cultivation method should I teach this guy?'
DING
<No. The current cultivation method is only compatible with Oni Race. If Tang San continues using it, he will slowly mutate into a monster. Instead, it is recommended to impart him the Abyssal Black Tortoise bloodline to evolve his constitution before he reaches the immortal realm.>
Leo flinched. 'And how the hell can I get one of those bloodline from?'
<You can purchase it from the system.>
"…"
Finally, Leo realized how powerful his shopping system was. He opened the online shopping store and searched by the keyword 'Bloodline'.
A million items showed up. Each item's description disclosed the backgrounds of each race and creature.
Leo browsed the list for a while and found the origin of his bloodlines.
.
Prismatic Phoenix Bloodline (Transcendent Realm)
Price – One Billion Years of Lifespan
This vial of blood contains the blood essence of the transcendent being overlord "Priscilla". It can be consumed directly to integrate the bloodline into one's constitution. However, there are 95% chance that the host will mutate and die during the mutation process.
In case of succeeding, the host can evolve into a Prismatic Phoenix and utilize any type of yin and yang cultivation method, technique, or skill. It also boosts the host's defense and offense abilities equally. In short, this bloodline is considered the most versatile bloodline in the universe.
However, there was a downside. Whatever and whoever the host touches, they may mutate because of the suppressing yin and yang Qi. Most mutated objects and lifeforms usually turn into medicines, spiritual herbs, cultivation resources, or alchemy ingredients.
The bloodline is not compatible with the Gold Dragon Bloodline, Abyssal Black Tortoise Bloodline, and Hallowed White Tiger Bloodline. If mixed together, the bloodlines will cause the host to lose sanity.
.
Leo nodded. It indeed looked similar to what Leo had in his veins and heart.
After skimming through his bloodline power, he checked the details of the Abyssal Tortoise Bloodline next.
.
Abyssal Tortoise Bloodline (Transcendent Realm)
Price – One Billion Years of Lifespan
This vial of blood contains the blood essence of the deceased transcendent being overlord 'Etteswob'. It cannot be consumed directly due to its poisonous extreme yin nature. Only the top alchemist can concoct this bloodline into medicine, which can be used to cure broken meridian disabilities. However, people with the rare constitution "Monster Meridians Physique" can consume this directly to unlock their full potential.
Upon consumption, there are two results: the obvious one is being unalive. The second result is an ultimate evolution. The host with this bloodline will have a charming feminine physique even though he is a man, yet his defensive abilities will become unrivaled in this universe. In addition, the host can acquire the Dao of Gravity and Magnetic Force naturally. Thus, the best cultivation methods and techniques for the host with this bloodline are gravity and magnetic-related techniques.
The bloodline is not compatible with the Gold Dragon Bloodline, Prismatic Phoenix Bloodline, and Hallowed White Tiger Bloodline. If mixed together, the bloodlines will cause the host to lose sanity.
.
After reading through everything, Leo was confident that this bloodline suited Tang San better. He invested one billion years of lifespan to get the vial of black blood.
The black blood vial appeared in Leo's hands. He slightly shook it to check the content.
As soon as Leo waved it, the vial broke, and the mass of blood floated in mid-air. As if it was alive, it emitted killing intent toward Leo.
Leo smirked at the blob of blood, "Hey, what's the big deal?"
The blood mass didn't listen to Leo. It slowly floated toward Tang San for a moment. Then, it let out a scream of joy.
Tang San slowly opened his eyes as he sensed a weird gaze from an entity. Upon opening his eyes, he found a small mass of black liquid floating in front of his face.
Without letting Tang San react, the blood mass infiltrated Tang San's body through his nostrils. It instantly entered his brain and bone marrow.
"W-WHAT?!" Tang San panicked.
Leo crossed his arms and encouraged him, "Relax and absorb that bloodline. It will change your physique… in a good way."
"???"
"Oh, don't mind if you end up looking like a woman. Well, if anybody asks what your gender is, just say that you're non-
binary or some shit."
"Huh?"
