Wandering Gods of Day and Night-Chapter 1174 - 449: Capital City Divine Infant_3

"Offering them pills, I find it quite humiliating," Zhou Xuan said.

"Not at all humiliating."

Alchemist Bai Lu said, "So many people want to offer pills, yet have no way to do so. If the great master crafts pills favored by the Heavenly Dome and Heaven and Earth, you can walk through Jing Country’s human world with pride.

For example, the God-level ’Earth Child’ behind that Mr. Ye, who is himself God-level, presides over the Capital Mansion, allied with several Great Halls, and mobilized by the Jing Country Capital City Government, has great influence,

Yet even someone as powerful as him dares not provoke the current favorite Dan Officers of Heaven and Earth and the Heavenly Dome."

Saying this, Alchemist Bai Lu gazed at the sky, pointing at a few clouds and said, "Moreover, the God-level beings above, if guided by the Heavenly Dome, become imperial envoys upon descending to the mortal realm,

even Heavenly God-level Incense Fire Taoist Gods must show them some respect. Yet in the eyes of the favorite Dan Officers, they are merely a few stray dogs locked up by the Heavenly Dome."

"That’s true."

Previously, Zhou Xuan thought Dan Officers were merely dogs raised by the Heavenly Dome, but today, after witnessing that ’finger,’ which after consuming an elixir, acted as if addicted, seeking more from him,

he was convinced...if the production and quality of elixirs could be increased, it could actually regulate the various major forces in Jing Country.

Even ’Heaven and Earth’ is like this, those of the Heavenly Fire Clan, whose minds have been ruined by the ’Human Pill,’ will only wag their tails more pitifully in front of the elixir.

"In my eyes, the Alchemy Dao is an evil path, but... this evil path... is very effective."

Zhou Xuan was very optimistic about the future of ’Alchemy Incense.’

...

In Jing Country, every state among the nine major prefectures has a God Traveling Department.

The God Traveling Department is the most powerful institution in every prefecture city.

But the Capital Mansion is an exception.

In the Capital Mansion, there is a God Traveling Department, but the institution in the limelight is the ’Qintianjian.’

Qintianjian was once the institution controlled by the star officials of the capital cities, but now, the situation has changed vastly,

this department is now dominated solely by the ’Earth Child.’

In the southwest of the capital, there stands a gigantic palace with a total of nineteen levels,

where the Tunnel Armor Sect, Mr. Ye, Shaman, Witch, Heavenly Eye Temple, and other halls skilled in prediction and foresight reside on the eighteenth level, calculating day and night.

The task of Qintianjian is to predict ominous characters for Jing Country.

Once an ominous character is born, the ’Earth Child’ will send Mr. Ye to eliminate it in the cradle,

and to eradicate future troubles, the families of these ominous characters will be completely exterminated.

Of course, the final say on ’who is an ominous character’ remains with the supreme authority of Qintianjian—the God-level Alien Ghost, ’Earth Child.’

Earth Child resides on the nineteenth level of Qintianjian.

This level has its own name—the Observatory Pavilion.

The pavilion covers a vast area, including an endless garden, with twenty-one ponds within the garden.

Beneath each pond, they are all interconnected, and the ’Earth Child’ resides in these ponds.

These ponds are not azure green pools; the liquid flowing within them is a stark white milk.

This milk comes from humans.

With so much milk, such a large garden, the capital’s offerings to the ’Earth Child,’ just in milk and the pavilion, are exorbitantly costly.

Tunnel Armor Sect’s Great Mage Zhao Youting walks step by step inside the "Observatory,"

This floor seems to him like a terrifying, eerie hell.

He has seen the moody temperament of Earth Child, once witnessing with his own eyes an eight-incense offering torn to pieces by the bizarre infant Earth Child.

This floor of the Observatory is eerily silent, yet Zhao Youting seems to hear the accelerated sound of his own heartbeat.

He treaded cautiously, crossing numerous stone bridges, passing through dozens of corridors, arriving at the central position of the Observatory, the ’Divine Infant Bridge.’

He stood at the bridgehead, softly speaking to the snow-white pond water, "Zhao Youting of the Tunnel Armor Sect, pays respects to the ’Earth Child.’"

The snow-white pond was without ripples, which Zhao Youting expected.

As disciples serving Qintianjian, if they have matters to report to the ’Earth Child,’ they may do so from the Divine Infant Bridge. If it’s not significant, or if the Earth Child is going to give instructions,

the Earth Child would not show itself.

Not showing itself is a good thing; it’s better not to see this peculiar-tempered Earth Child.

"Please don’t come out, please don’t come out."

Zhao Youting thought nervously to himself, constrained by social obligations, pestered and poked by the third and fourth heads of the hall, unable to refuse, he dared to report to the ’Earth Child.’

Seeing the pond water without ripples, Zhao Youting continued, "Today, our sect leader Zhao Jinjia of the Tunnel Armor Sect was killed by that great master in Mingjiang Prefecture, leaving no remains,

The entire Tunnel Armor Sect is of one heart, wishing to ask the divine powers of the ’Earth Child’ to seal the ’Life and Death Book,’ allowing us to seek justice from Zhou Xuan."

After Zhao Youting spoke thus, he felt his heart leap to his throat, watching the white milky waters in the pond.

"What kind of justice do you uphold? If the Earth Child doesn’t care, the better," Zhao Youting secretly pondered.

If working for the hall is unsuccessful, he has tried his best, and the hall owes him a favor. As for the Earth Child, if it does not come to see him, all the better—not facing this bizarre infant is the happiest thing right now.

"Glug, glug."

Two small bubbles surfaced from the white pond water...
