Trillionaire's Slice of Life-Chapter 1105 - 693: The Treasures of Shaolin_2
Chapter 1105: Chapter 693: The Treasures of Shaolin_2
“This pill was developed by bringing together more than a hundred of the world’s top scientists, spending tens of trillions in funds, and taking over a year of time to finally succeed. This pill is called Longevity Pill No. 2, and it uses the Great Restoration Pill as a catalyst. One Great Restoration Pill can create twenty Longevity Pill No. 2s. However, for various reasons, I only have ten pills left. By a simple calculation, the value of each Longevity Pill even surpasses one hundred billion. Moreover, the Longevity Pill No. 2 has only been introduced for a day, and outsiders do not even know of its existence.
If Master Zhishang is interested, he may bring out an item of equivalent value to trade!”
Chu Mo and the Shaolin Abbot in front of him have no connections or vested interests. Frankly speaking, if it were not for Liu Ping at his side, the two might never meet in their lifetimes. Thus, Chu Mo has absolutely no need to please the other party.
Chu Mo could give Liu Ping a pill because Liu Ping is of great importance to Chu Mo. Every additional day Liu Ping lives, he can protect Chu Mo’s safety for another day and keep his four disciples from causing trouble. But as for the old monk opposite him, whether he lives or dies, it has nothing to do with Chu Mo at all.
Moreover, Chu Mo isn’t lying; he truly only has ten Longevity Pill No. 2s, and one could say each is exceedingly precious. Even he himself is reluctant to consume one lightly. Under such circumstances, naturally, Chu Mo would not just give one away to the old monk in front of him for nothing.
Just after Chu Mo finished speaking, Master Zhishang opposite him slowly reined in his expression. He was momentarily too excited, hence the lapse in composure, but after steadying his mind, with a hundred years of cultivated mental state, he could easily return to tranquility.
...
Upon understanding the value of the pill before him, Master Zhishang slowly said:
“Junior, when the old monk was two years old, he entered Shaolin, and has sat in meditation for over a hundred years. Besides mastering the Buddhist Law, it wouldn’t be an overstatement to say I possess nothing. If the junior wishes to obtain benefits from the old monk, I’m afraid he will be disappointed.”
As Master Zhishang finished his words, Liu Ping suddenly burst into laughter:
“Hahaha, look at you, old bald donkey, do you really think you can get something for nothing and casually take the Longevity Pill? Over the years, you must have collected quite a few treasures on your journeys around the world. If you aren’t willing to part with them for a trade, who would willingly give you a treasure like the Longevity Pill for free?
Old monk, you should think it over. With your current health condition, you can live at most another five years, yet this tiny pill can extend your life by another ten years. Even if you don’t make a breakthrough within those ten years, you could take a second or third pill. Although the efficacy will surely decline later, extending your lifespan by twenty years with three Longevity Pills is not impossible.
Ten years without a breakthrough, if you still can’t break through after twenty, by that time, you ought to give up and have no more regrets.
Are you really willing to waste a hundred years of cultivation for some external possessions, old monk?”
As Liu Ping finished speaking, Master Zhishang once again brought his palms together:
“Amitabha, the old monk has practiced for a hundred years, aiming towards the principle of detachment from material possessions. Unexpectedly today, I would have to break my own precepts. Alas, very well!
I do have something here for you to take, young friend!”
As he finished speaking, the old monk waved his hand, and a Buddhist bead gently drifted towards Chu Mo. At the sight of this bead, Liu Ping’s face changed slightly as he concentrated and said:
“Sharira… I didn’t expect the old monk to be willing to give up such a precious treasure!”
Although Chu Mo does not know what use this small bead has, seeing Liu Ping’s surprised expression, he knew that this bead called Sharira must be extraordinary.
At this time, Master Zhishang casually waved his hand, and the wooden box in front of Chu Mo seemed to be grabbed by an invisible pair of hands, then the box slowly flew towards Master Zhishang. When the wooden box was floating beside him, Master Zhishang casually picked it up, brought it to his nose for a quick sniff, and then lightly said:
“It indeed has the scent of the Great Restoration Pill, and additionally, it has been merged with the extractions from hundreds of medicinal materials… Oh, there is even a trace of Origin Power hidden within, this trace of Origin Power is likely the catalyst… Using Origin Power as a catalyst indeed has some merit!”
As Master Zhishang said this, he nodded slightly, clearly also believing in the efficacy of the Longevity Pill. With a gentle wave of his hand, the box containing the pill was taken into his sleeve.
Only then did the old monk slowly say:
“Young friend, don’t feel at a loss; even if this Great Restorative Pill of yours is worth a fortune, the value of this Sharira is absolutely more than sufficient. Ten years ago, someone wished to exchange it for a Heavenly Spirit Pill, which I refused. You must take good care of this Sharira.”
The Shaolin Abbot finished speaking, and opposite him, Liu Ping suddenly started to tease:
“The Heavenly Spirit Pill is a treasure of this world, worth more than ten times a Great Restorative Pill. A single Heavenly Spirit Pill can also extend your life by ten years. Old monk, why were you unwilling to trade back then but are willing now?”
Chu Mo, who was gently caressing the warm and lustrous Sharira in his hand, was also curious, so he turned his gaze to the Abbot across from him.
The entire body of Master Zhi Shang, who was sitting cross-legged in mid-air, remained calm as he slowly said:
“Ten years ago, I had plenty of time, and I was planning to travel the lands. At that time, I believed with my own strength, I could surely find countless precious medicinal ingredients to refine the Heavenly Spirit Pill myself, but after ten unfruitful years, this old monk has completely given up on concocting pills.
Furthermore, I simply didn’t like that person very much!”
After Master Zhi Shang spoke, he looked at Chu Mo once more, his voice, rare in its solemnity, said:
“Young friend, seeing as you can concoct the Longevity Pill, you must be no ordinary person, and you should have some self-protective abilities. However, as the saying goes, ‘to be in possession of a jewel is to invite crime.’ When the Sharira was in my hands, not a single person dared to covet it, but you must be extremely careful. Once the fact that the Sharira is on you is leaked, you might attract the greed of those with ill-intent.

And those who seek the Sharira, no one among them is mediocre. Take good care of yourself, young friend!”
The Shaolin Abbot finished speaking and no longer paid attention to Chu Mo, instead, he turned his gaze toward Liu Ping opposite him, and slowly said:
“Benefactor Liu, you have only twenty hours left. Our entire Hua Country only has a mere three upper-tier Great Grandmasters and during our lives, we have each kept to our own territories, hardly interacting. If it weren’t for Benefactor Liu’s impending end, I would not have taken the initiative to come here.
Our time is limited, so let’s not waste these precious moments, let’s start!”
After Master Zhi Shang spoke, Liu Ping beside Chu Mo also put away his smile, his whole demeanor turning exceedingly serious. Then, the two upper-tier Great Grandmasters closed their eyes simultaneously. In that instant, two gentle auras emanated from their bodies, intermingling with each other, and ultimately fusing into one.
Chu Mo had absolutely no idea what the two were doing, but he could vaguely sense that the two Great Grandmasters were engaging in mysterious mutual fusion without uttering a word, as if they were in the midst of a very intense discussion.
With Chu Mo’s level of cultivation, he naturally couldn’t understand the profound mysteries between the two Great Grandmasters. After watching them for a while, seeing that both remained in meditation, he gradually lost interest. After a while, Chu Mo’s gaze returned to the Sharira in his hand.
This Sharira was roughly twice the size of the Great Restorative Pill, amber in color, with a faint dim glow seemingly radiating from within.
When Chu Mo held it in his hand, he felt a distinct warmth, as if a stream of heat was continuously spreading throughout his body.
Chu Mo had never felt this before and found it quite peculiar.
While Chu Mo was fiddling with the Sharira in his hand, the space in front of him suddenly became distorted again. In the next moment, a figure in black clothes and a mask on his head appeared out of thin air.
At the same time, the Sharira in Chu Mo’s hand instantly disappeared, and in the next moment, as if heaven and earth were spinning, the entire room was instantly enveloped by three terrifyingly powerful auras!
The third upper-tier Great Grandmaster of Hua Country has finally arrived!
