Chapter 250 Zhang Changsheng's Layout
Half an hour later, Ouyang Xue and Guo Qiankun arrived at the villa where Zhang Changsheng lived.
"Master Zhang, I am sorry for disturbing you by coming to my house."
Guo Qiankun saw Zhang Changsheng and greeted him very respectfully.
This is respect for the strong.
"Captain Guo, you're welcome. Feel free to do as you please."
Zhang Changsheng recognized Guo Qiankun, the son of Guo Chungang. He had greeted him before when they were in the Fengdu Ghost Realm. In addition, when he met the Bride in Red, he also came to support him, so he had a good impression of him.
Guo Qiankun took out the gift for Niu Niu to express his gratitude.
Zhang Changsheng accepted it on behalf of Niu Niu.
The three of them chatted casually for a while. Guo Qiankun mainly said that he was grateful for the help of Taoist Zhang in the last operation against the evil cultivators, otherwise the case would not have been solved so quickly. He also thanked Elder Niu Niu for giving Liu Ya and Guanzi two pills to help them break through.
Zhang Changsheng said that it was all Niu Niu's doing and he was just watching from the side.
After chatting for a while, Ouyang Xue found an opportunity to go outside and familiarize herself with the situation, then left the living room, leaving Guo Qiankun and Zhang Changsheng behind.
Ouyang Xue is a smart person and she knows that Guo Qiankun must have something to do when he came to see Zhang Changsheng, and it is definitely not just to express gratitude.
There were rumors in the Gou Chen Bureau that Elder Guo had been in seclusion to strive for S-level thanks to a pill given by Zhang Changsheng, so she thought that the captain's visit to Zhang Changsheng this time was most likely for the pill.
Liu Ya and Guan Zi took Zhang Changsheng's elixir and broke through from level B to level A overnight. This speed of advancement is a bit terrifying.
Although Ouyang Xue has not been in the Gouchen Bureau for long, she knows that it is extremely difficult for a cultivator to advance to the next level, especially from level B to level A, as there is a huge gap between the two.
Liu Ya and the coffin have been stuck at Level B for a long time, and as they get older, it becomes more difficult to break through. Many people of similar age to Liu Ya no longer hold out hope of a breakthrough.
This shows how precious the elixir Zhang Changsheng refined is. If the people from the Gou Chen Bureau had not been notified that they were strictly prohibited from looking for Zhang Changsheng privately, his door would have been trampled. Who wouldn't want to improve their realm? Have a stronger fighting power?
After Ouyang Xue left, Guo Qiankun said, "Master Zhang, I actually came here for something else, but I don't know how to start."
"Captain Zhang, please feel free to speak."
"Elder Guo took Taoist Zhang's elixir and went into seclusion to strive for S-level. I wonder what the probability is of success? To be honest, he is my father." Guo Qiankun said.
"Elder Guo should have no problem breaking through." Zhang Changsheng said.
"Really? That's great. Taoist Zhang's alchemy skills are unparalleled in the world. No wonder Elder Zhuge praises you so much and even said he wants to become your disciple." Guo Qiankun was quite shocked when he got a definite answer from Zhang Changsheng.
He himself is also A-level, but the family has invested a lot of resources in him, and there is still no sign of a breakthrough. Guo Chungang is a formation master, and it is even more difficult for him to break through. This is why there is still no breakthrough after so many years.
I didn't expect that Zhang Changsheng's one piece of ammunition solved the problem. Zhang Changsheng is really a remarkable man!
"Captain Guo has been staying at Level A for a while, right?" Zhang Changsheng asked deliberately.
Guo Qiankun nodded, "I was originally at the peak of A-level, but in a battle, I was seriously injured and my realm fell. Now I have barely recovered to the middle stage of A-level. There is probably no hope for me to break through A-level in this lifetime." What he said was indeed true. Under normal circumstances, he really had no possibility of promotion. Originally, entering the Fengdu Weird Realm last time was the best opportunity for promotion, but his luck was too bad, and it ended just as it began.
How could Zhang Changsheng not know Guo Qiankun's purpose? He still had 7 Foundation Establishment Pills in his hand, and he needed three. Niu Niu left three for her, and there was one left. It was not impossible for him to give it to him, but it depended on how sincere the other party was.
If a top-grade 3rd-grade foundation-building pill was placed in the Qiankun Continent, it would be fought over by countless practitioners in the foundation-building stage. No matter how generous Zhang Changsheng was, he would not give it away casually. As for giving it to Guo Qiankun, it was mainly to thank him for taking care of Niu Niu in the strange realm.
Guo Qiankun doesn't have much of a relationship with him, but Zhang Changsheng is not a pushover.
"I do have a foundation-building pill here that can help you break through to the S-level. However, this pill is precious and I can't give it away for free." Zhang Changsheng went straight to the point.
Guo Qiankun stood up excitedly, "Master Zhang, please tell me. I will do my best."
He didn't have much hope at first, after all, there couldn't be too many such pills.
If this medicine were put up for auction, it would definitely fetch a sky-high price. The Guo family is financially strong, but the other families are also strong.
For Zhang Changsheng, he is not short of money, but he lacks people who can work for him, or more specifically, people who can share the pressure with Niu Niu and help her.
It is impossible for Zhang Changsheng to be with Niu Niu all the time, and one day he will leave this plane to pursue the great way in other planes. Achieving immortality is the direction he is pursuing.
So Zhang Changsheng starts preparing for Niu Niu now. Elder Guo is one, but Guo Qiankun has even greater potential than Elder Guo!
After taking the foundation-building pill, Elder Guo broke through to the S-level, which corresponds to the initial stage of foundation-building. With his qualifications, reaching the peak of foundation-building in this lifetime is already the limit, and entering the golden elixir stage is impossible.
Guo Qiankun is different. His aptitude is much better. His physique can be rated as average in Qiankun Continent, and can at least reach the Golden Core stage. If resources are sufficient, it is not impossible for him to break through to the Nascent Soul stage.
A Nascent Soul can be considered the most advanced existence in this world. Of course, it also depends on what kind of reaction it will bring after the full integration of the strange realm.
In short, Zhang Changsheng is more optimistic about Guo Qiankun.
"Once you break through to S-level, I will ask you to protect my daughter for a hundred years." Zhang Changsheng said.
Guo Qiankun was slightly stunned and said, "Master Zhang, Elder Niuniu is the honorary elder of the Gouchen Bureau. The elders will put Niuniu's safety first. I seem to be redundant, right?"
Zhang Changsheng shook his head and said, "That's different. No one can predict what will happen in the future."
In the future, when the strange world completely arrives and the world pattern changes drastically, the situation in Yan Country will definitely undergo major changes, and many things will change with the passage of time.
Zhang Changsheng has seen too many cases of people turning against each other.
Guo Qiankun said without any hesitation: "I, Guo Qiankun, swear on my heart of Taoism to protect Niuniu for a hundred years. If you break your promise, you will die a miserable death."
Zhang Changsheng nodded and said, "Besides you and me, don't let anyone else know about this, including Niuniu."
Guo Qiankun asked: "Master Zhang is leaving?"
Zhang Changsheng flipped his hand and a jade box floated into Guo Qiankun's hand. "Find a place where you won't be disturbed by others and take it directly. After refining the pill, you will be able to break through."
