Chapter 1105: Chen Tianlong’s Dream
"Mmm, as long as you, Xiaowu, support me, it will be much easier." Wu Guangzu smiled contently.
After leaving the Assassin Group, Chen Tianlong arrived at Ice City. The merging of the three cities was a good move. However, Chen Tianlong felt that the climate in Ice City and Fire Domain was too extreme, hindering development in multiple aspects.
Nearby Ouyang Manor, about fifty kilometers from Ice City, was quite nice. It was quiet, scenic, and had a moderate climate. Chen Tianlong liked it very much.
"Ruxue, I have an idea. Could we expand Ice City by purchasing the area fifty kilometers south of Ice City to build a new city where all the residents are from Ice City? I would like to live here in the future," Chen Tianlong shared his thoughts.
South Sea City was too complicated, and Lotus Village was too backward. Chen Tianlong wanted to use his wealth to relocate all his industries to one place in the future. After all, with World Medicine and the people of Ice City moving in, forming a small city wouldn’t need to be too bustling or have too much intrigue. Everything could be under his control...
"You want to live here, huh? Doesn’t that mean we’ll be quite close?" Bing Ruxue was overjoyed upon hearing this. He had initially thought it was too far from South Sea City, but now it was just right, with Chen Tianlong coming over willingly.
"Haha, what I meant was that the Ice Hall headquarters would also move here eventually," Chen Tianlong beamed.
"Oh, are you planning on staying with me?" Bing Ruxue pursed her lips, jokingly.
"Wrong, not just stay, but sleep! Hahaha..."
"You naughty rascal, who wants to sleep with you? Your little lovers would hate me to death." Bing Ruxue was clearly very happy, as Chen Tianlong’s words meant he was fine with her following him.
"I can’t control that; I just want to build a city that I can manage, where everyone can live an ideal life without much suffering, where everyone can earn proportional income through their efforts." Chen Tianlong expressed his dream.
"Alright, big dreamer. No matter what you want to do, I’ll support you." Bing Ruxue never lacked money; as long as Chen Tianlong had plans, she would fully support them.
"Mm, I’ve even thought of the name. It will be called Dream Capital."
"Dream Capital?" Bing Ruxue was taken aback; the name was a bit odd. "Why this name?"
"It’s a city where dreams are fulfilled. I want everyone in my city to maximize their abilities and achieve their dreams. I’ll recruit the best talents here, researching the most advanced sciences and front-line pharmaceuticals," Chen Tianlong grinned.
"Alright, then, best of luck." Bing Ruxue didn’t really understand Chen Tianlong’s vision, but she smiled and agreed anyway.
"Alright, you’ll be responsible for buying this land initially. As for the city’s design plan, I’ll have someone help me finalize it. We can start construction after approximately six months of planning." Chen Tianlong was a man of action, not just words.
"Okay, no problem. This area belongs to both Ice City and Ouyang Town. We’re familiar with the Ouyang Town Government; we can chat with them some other day and probably purchase it," Bing Ruxue reported honestly.
"Wow, that’s fantastic," Chen Tianlong said with a smile.
In the next two days, Chen Tianlong wandered around Ice City, drank with Master Fang Yan, and had a drunken night with Lin Kaifeng before returning to South Sea City under Bing Ruxue’s reluctant farewell.
Upon returning, Chen Tianlong immediately went to Tan Tian’s place. He had given the Super Qi Gathering Pill formula to Master Tan almost a week ago to see what results came out of it.
"Tianlong, I’ve got good news for you. There’s new progress on the Super Qi Gathering Pill, though I’m not sure if it can be realized. I conducted a small experiment a couple of days ago and got a sample, but I just don’t know who to test it on," Tan Tian said, half-excited, half-helpless.
The Super Qi Gathering Pill requires someone above the Celestial Dao to test its effectiveness. If consumed by someone below, it could be life-threatening since this pill is designed for those with abilities above Celestial Dao.
Of course, the Super Qi Gathering Pill here isn’t the exact one from Chen Tianlong’s original formula. Strictly speaking, Tan Tian’s version only used half of the original ingredients, and crucial herbs were substituted, giving only one-fifth of the original potency.
This mere one-fifth potency was what the Celestial Pill Sect referred to as a Super Qi Gathering Pill.
"Oh? It’s that easy to make a Super Qi Gathering Pill?" Chen Tianlong asked in surprise.
"Haha, to be honest, this is a diluted version of the Super Qi Gathering Pill. A truly potent one should allow a continuous breakthrough of three levels before the Celestial Dao five-star. Mine tops at two or one level," Tan Tian said with a wry smile.
"Not bad. If such conventional ingredients can yield this effect, it’s already quite heaven-defying," Chen Tianlong praised.
"Mine is rather low-grade since I didn’t have a suitable Alchemy Furnace. The result isn’t pure, and there’s a lot of residue. With a proper Alchemy Furnace, the purity could be over 98%," Tan Tian analyzed.
"Oh? Are you saying you could mass-produce Qi Gathering Pills with a proper furnace?" Chen Tianlong recalled something with interest.
"You could say that, but I never said it would be from your original formula. That formula is beyond what humans can manage. Even if all materials were available, I couldn’t make it unless aided by the legendary Innate Pill Furnace. Otherwise, I’m powerless," Tan Tian said wryly.
"Alright, but if my original formula could be made, what effect do you think it would have?" Chen Tianlong asked curiously.
Tan Tian didn’t immediately respond; he seemed to be mentally calculating something and only spoke after dozens of seconds: "To put it simply, if a practitioner is at Celestial Dao one-star, consuming it would directly break through to Celestial Dao seven-star."
"But it’s just Celestial Dao seven-star, not the Great Perfection," Tan Tian added.
"Hiss~"
Upon hearing this, Chen Tianlong gasped. Achieving Celestial Dao seven-star was incredibly heaven-defying and something many dreamed of, hoping one day to reach it.
Even Chen Tianlong dreamed of this.
"So... does your Super Qi Gathering Pill still work for someone like me, at Celestial Dao five-star?" Chen Tianlong scratched his head, asking. After the Qishan battle, he felt a lack of power, and advancing one or two levels would make him much more comfortable.
There aren’t many people in the world who reach Celestial Dao seven-star. With his Martial Technique and Heart Method, if he could reach seven-star, besides those in the Great Perfection realm posing a slight threat, others wouldn’t be a match for him.
