Chapter 193: Preparations
The mayor Feng Yunlong was led in by a Luo Family senior elder, coming in alone with no aides. His face was visibly darker than before, and he looked like he had aged by several times in the past few days. There was a cold glow in his eyes, as if he was urgently waiting to take revenge!
Feng Qingyun had suffered a fatal sword injury and it would take at least one-two years to recover, but it would definitely leave consequences. His talent would greatly suffer and was doomed to lose to that vase Feng Caidie!
Feng Yunlong had waited for several years to create a powerful heir to increase his own status and his own position in his family. Who would have thought that everything would be for nothing. How could he not be filled with hate?
"Please restrain your grief, Sir mayor." Luo Liancheng's heart was filled with joy. Hopefully he could borrow the mayor's power from this, "Please have a seat."
"No need, I just want to hear what you have prepared." Feng Yunlong naturally knew about the matter of the fight. From his plain clothes, it was very obvious he was here because of this, "Chu Tian is so arrogant, but my clansmen all support him. This is going to far and this mayor can no longer accept it all! If you can use this opportunity to take care of Chu Tian, then this mayor will owe you a large favour!"
"What is the mayor saying? The Luo Family and the mayor's palace are interconnected, so your enemy is our enemy." Luo Liancheng revealed a confident smile, "Please be assured mayor, Xianglong is not weak. Moreover, with the Nine Lion and Tigers Bracers given to him, his strength will be doubled, so there is no need to worry!"
The mayor nodded his head in satisfaction, "There should be no worries with this......However this isn't enough. We need to make some backup preparations because we definitely cannot lose this fight!"
"Chu Tian's destruction is a guaranteed thing. But if there is a one in ten thousand chance of failure, we need to make some preparations. Even if the one in a ten thousand chance happens where we lose, we can still guarantee that Chu Tian dies, but......" Luo Liancheng stopped here.
"With my intelligence, Chu Tian has the Divine Wind Marquis' asylum and he has Chen Bingyu and Yun Tianhe by his side. With the power of my three families, we can only impede them and cannot obtain the upper hand. So to complete our goals, we will need to borrow outside forces."
"Your meaning is......."
"If we don't have enough power, we can just borrow some." Luo Liancheng said in a low voice, "We can tell everyone that Chu Tian has obtained the hidden treasure and as long as the news gets sent to certain people, naturally there will be outer forces interfering in this matter. As native inhabitants of Central State, we have to give the Divine Wind Marquis face, but for the other states and the imperial city, that isn't the case."
Feng Yunlong's eyes lit up. It sounded very logical, but time was short, so he had to move fast, "Leave this matter to this mayor!"
"With Sir mayor's help, we will be able to easily take care of this arrogant child!"
After their secret discussion, the mayor left.
Luo Liancheng gave a sinister laugh, "Chu Tian, ah Chu Tian. Your talent really makes one envious, but you are still too young! The Four Great Families have been battling it out in Central State for hundreds of years, can you even imagine what kind of methods we would use?"
A tall tree in the forest would attract wind.
Being too outstanding was not a good thing. This kind of extremely arrogant person would not be able to live for long!
......
While Central State City was thrown into chaos, the center of the storm, Chu Tian was not worried at all.
Chu Tian did not even go to the Yun Family. He had spent all day with the young miss and Yingying, taking care of the magnetic sound towers and buying several canned food factories. He even had time to help Yingying improve the canned food recipe.
The young miss had a series of dazzling plans that would allow Miracle Commerce to begin selling their wares in Central State. From source energy lights, to pills, to talismans, to phonographs, to radios, everything was preparing for pre order.
Central State.
This was a market with a giant potential that was now being thrown into Miracle Commerce's embrace!
Chu Tian needed a lot of money. Although he obtained the Saint Grade Dirt Burrowing Fruit in the Central State Tower, without the accompanying medicine, he could not refine a Saint Grade pill. Chu Tian also required a large amount of raw materials.
To refine a pill with a Saint Grade medicine base, the materials necessary would all have to be at the Half Saint Grade. Even the Yun Family would not be able to provide this, so they could only throw out their money in an attempt to buy some.
Their expenditure surpassed their expectations.
They had Nangong Yun, Lin Mu, Fang Han, and the others who all required training.
Now they needed to buy more medicine, while expanding in Central State City. They hoped that the money Miracle Commerce made would be enough to satisfy their large needs.
Because of Chu Tian's fight with the Heavenly Wolf Young Master and the Dragon Tiger Young Master, the large families all paid attention to this matter. No one cared about the small matter of Miracle Commerce, which allowed them smoothly develop their power.
"Right, right!"
"This position is right!"
"Install the broadcast tower right here!"
Chu Tian was busy ordering a group of workers to install a broadcast tower in the square. The loudspeakers were being installed in all kinds of lively places in Central State City like hotels, bars, and other gathering spots.
A battle of life and death!
Chu Tian was not preparing for the fight, but rather he was fooling around with these things that they could not understand!
Yun Tianhe was an old man, but he was following behind this young master everyday. The Yun Family had bet everything on Chu Tian, even daring to fight against the other three great families!
If something happened to Chu Tian.
Wouldn't the Yun Family be in for a disaster?!
Ancestor! We really need to call you ancestor!
Give us something at least, so we can have a bit of hope!
Yun Tianhe gathered everything Chu Tian wanted. No matter how he looked at it, this was a lost fight!
Not to mention that in these three days!
It was impossible for the Luo and Ye Families to do nothing. Those two families had quite a bit of hidden strength, so it was obvious that Ye Tianlang and Luo Xianglong had more cards hidden. It seemed like there was no chance for Chu Tian at all!
Meng Qingwu came over in a beast carriage and asked about their progress, "How many speakers have you installed?"
Meng Yingying counted with her fingers and said, "Not too many, not too few. We've installed a total of sixty two, covering all the major areas of Central State City. Do we need to install more?"
"Yes! We need at least twenty more!" Chu Tian solemnly said, "Don't look down on the speakers. As long as everything goes smoothly, we will be earning a large profit!"
"Alright!"
Meng Yingying followed everything Chu Tian said. She immediately headed off to her next goal.
She was not worried for Chu Tian!
What did that stray dog young master count for! So what if there was an extra tabby cat young master?
That cat and dog thinking that they could fight Chu Tian was really them trapped in a dream! When had Chu Tian ever lost?
Meng Yingying felt that it was very strange. That gray bearded old man kept following Chu Tian around, just what was he doing? No matter! She would do what she had to do!
"Young miss Meng!" Yun Tianhe quickly walked beside Meng Qingwu and hoping for a bit of luck, he asked, "There is only a single day left before the fight and this old man can see you're not worried at all. Are you assured that Chu Tian will not lose? Does he have some kind of secret move?"
Meng Qingwu knit her brows and then shook her head with a bitter smile, "I don't know either."
Yun Tianhe almost fell down!
Meng Qingwu was so prudent and she was very close to Chu Tian, so if even she didn't have an idea, was there any hope left?
"Are you sisters not worried at all? This is a battle of life and death!" Yun Tianhe almost went crazy, "Tell Chu Tian that he has to go and prepare himself!"
Meng Qingwu was very puzzled. Although she didn't understand what was happening, why was she not worried at all?
Is it because she had been with Chu Tian for a long time? Has his way of not worrying about anything finally affected me?
Impossible! Do I also have blind faith in Chu Tian like that little girl Yingying!
Pei, pei!
Meng Qingwu did not want to be obsessed with Chu Tian like her little sister. She listened to old Yun's advice and went to talk to Chu Tian.
Chu Tian revealed an awkward smile, "There only a day left? Alright, since it's like this, I'll go back and make my preparations. Yingying, you have to complete the task I gave you!"
Meng Yingying said with a smile, "No problem! You just have to beat up the cat and dog young masters, you can leave everything else to this young miss!"
She said it like it would be easy!
Chu Tian went back to their headquarters and walked into the laboratory.
The laboratory was underground. In the end, he really had to thank old man Yun. If it wasn't for his help, Chu Tian would not have gained such a good environment to experiment in.
There were eighteen large barrels suspended in the laboratory!
Each wooden barrel was six feet long, with enough space to fit a person!
Each barrel was filled with red beast blood, with dense ruins written on the surface, creating a large array. It gave off a very sinister feel.
A black clothed woman was sitting in the centre, guarding the laboratory. It was no one else but the Ice Queen Chen Bingyu.
"Almost done!" Chu Tian gave a smile to Chen Bingyu, "Many thanks to vice principal Chen for helping me guard this place!"
Chen Bingyu stood up, seemingly hesitant to speak.
Chu Tian pulled out a scroll, "I used an ancient cultivation technique brought back from Central State Tower to fix the flaws and make some optimizations on your old cultivation technique, making it complete. Take it and have a look. Feel free to ask me if you don't understand anything, no need to be shy!"
Chen Bingyu excitedly took the scroll and looked it over. Her eyes immediately sparkled and she revealed a wild happy look of disbelief. Her full chest almost burst out of her clothes, making Chu Tian's focus his eyes a little.
This woman's body is quite good!
"I need to continue my experiments. If you don't have any other questions, can you please go out now?"
"Yes, yes!"
Chen Bingyu was like a child who had been awarded, walking out with a happy look on her face. When she arrived in front of the door, she suddenly stopped.
"Is there something else?"
"Tha......Thank you!"
After Chen Bingyu said this, she quickly ran out.
Chu Tian's smile was a little dark. There were a few parts of the cultivation technique that was truly profound that Chen Bingyu would have no choice but to ask about. Each time she asked, it would count as a favour, until she was firmly trapped in the palm of his hands.
"Alright! Let me see the results!"
Chu Tian opened a wooden barrel.
If there was a person present, they would have been shocked.
It was a barrel filled with a strange solution that was bubbling over, as if it was refining something. What was being refined was nothing else but a person, or more accurately, a corpse.
The corpse that was soaking in the barrel had black fur all over its body. It was a black furred Corpse Soldier, with power equal to an Awakened Soul Realm human cultivator.
Chu Tian gently shook a bell.
The yin corpse submerged in the barrel suddenly opened its eyes which released a green glow. A strong yin corpse aura began to slowly fill the entire area.
"The refining is about done!"
Chu Tian took a beaker and placed several blood red pills in them. These pills came from the blood pool of the Heavenly Demon Cult's Branch Master, each one containing the blood and life essence of over a thousand cultivators.
This thing could be used by a person who did not practice a demon art. It could restore their life essence and increase their cultivation, but to Chu Tian, this process was too harmful, so he did not want to use it on himself. He had finally found a use for it now.
The pills began to melt.
A beaker filled with life essence and stinking of blood was created.
Chu Tian pulled out a jar from his chest and carefully opened it. Then he placed two drops of liquid into the beaker. Divine blood!
The energy contained in the divine blood was hard to imagine, a single drop turned the entire solution in the beaker golden. Chu Tian split it into eighteen portions and placed it into the eighteen barrels.
"There was a corpse refining technique in the Spiritual God's memories, so I hope that this will work." Chu Tian muttered, "Otherwise, I'll have wasted two precious drops of divine blood!"
How valuable was the divine blood?
Chu Tian looked through the Spiritual God memory he obtained and found that while he could not decipher most of it, he still found a few useful things like this corpse refining technique. Using the divine blood to refine these Yin Corpses, if it really succeeded, then these eighteen corpse puppets would turn into weapons of slaughter and be of great use to Chu Tian.
After everything was done.
Chu Tian began to make his preparations.
With only a single day left before his duel with the two young masters, Chu Tian was not arrogant enough to make no preparations at all.
Those two fellows were still quite strong! He had bought random materials these past two days, buying all kinds of materials, seeming like he was making no preparations. This disorderly way of acting made the two great families quite relaxed.
Although he could not refine the Saint Grade pill, he could refine some other pills.
Chu Tian was going to refine the "Origin Raising Pill". It could raise his cultivation base and help him restore his spiritual energy while fighting, lasting for an entire day. After the effects were over, there were no side effects.
This was also why this pill was so expensive!
Chu Tian could temporarily reach the peak 3rd Awakened Soul Layer with this pill. Although he was only crossing a small gap, it was enough to make Chu Tian sure of his victory!
