Lin Caogen's heart raced as he looked at the silver staircase that extended automatically in front of him.
For over twenty years, I've lived on Earth. Now, an incredible opportunity is right in front of me. Could it be that I'm about to leave the home that gave me birth and nurtured me?
"Brother Yang? There's something I'm not sure if I should say! Do you have any more of the pills you gave me earlier? I'd like to give some to my family!"
Yang Guo smiled faintly, "Those low-grade elixirs are just for daily health maintenance. They don't mean much to me. I'll be leaving this desolate place soon. There are seven or eight left in this bottle, you can have them all."
After saying that, Yang Guo waved his hand, and a small white jade porcelain bottle floated in front of Lin Caogen.
Yang Guo slowly said again, "Boy! I see that you are not yet free from worldly ties. I will give you three days to take care of what you need to do. After three days, no matter where you are on Earth, I will find you and take you away from this cage."
Lin Caogen was overjoyed and took the white jade bottle, saying, "Thank you so much, Brother Yang! Thank you so much, Brother Yang! I really don't know how to repay your great kindness!"
Yang Guo chuckled and said, "Kid! Repaying my kindness is simple. Just learn your skills well and join forces with me to help me take revenge in the future."
Lin Caogen chuckled awkwardly and said, "Brother Yang! Do you think I have the talent to cultivate immortality?"
Yang Guo said decisively, "That's for sure! Those who can be imprisoned in this dungeon all have different cultivation talents in their bloodline! It depends on whether you are suited for technological body tempering or immortal essence body tempering. If a race has no talent at all, why would it be worthwhile for Immortal Venerable Haoyue to guard you?"
Lin Caogen exclaimed in surprise, "Could it be that all Earthlings have the talent for cultivation, and it is the environment that has suppressed our talent?"
Yang Guo nodded and said, "That's natural. It's just that your ancestors were all very talented, but as time went by, each generation of your people became less talented. Earth, this prison, not only holds prisoners from the technological universe, but also a few prisoners from the immortal universe. I think you are a hybrid born from prisoners from both universes! Logically speaking, you should have two kinds of talents in your body, and perhaps your achievements will surpass mine in the future. People like me, who are born without immortal roots and are purely from the technological universe, find it much more difficult to cultivate immortal arts, and have even gone through many hardships. You are different. I see that you have a hidden immortal root in your body. After successfully activating it, you might even become a king!"
Lin Caogen was incredibly excited! He said, "Brother Yang! I never thought I'd be embarking on a journey to seek immortality. This is so exciting! I'll settle my family matters in the next three days and then I'll go with you!"
Yang Guo nodded and said, "Don't be too happy yet! I'll come to pick you up at noon three days from now! But Immortal Venerable Haoyue might not let you go! You should be prepared!"
Lin Caogen felt a chill in his heart, realizing that his quest for immortality had become even more uncertain. After all, he was a prisoner imprisoned on Earth, and the Immortal Venerable Haoyue was the one guarding the prison; how could he allow a prisoner here to escape so easily?
Yang Guo seemed to sense Lin Caogen's change of heart. After thinking it over several times, he made up his mind and said, "You don't need to worry. Although I am injured and not as strong as that Haoyue Immortal Venerable, he still owes me a favor. In addition, I now have a warship. As long as you and I hide inside the warship and rely on the power of the A-class warship, we may be able to severely injure him!"
Yang Guo made this decision for two reasons: first, Lin Caogen had found and activated the key to his warship; second, Yang Guo observed that Lin Caogen indeed possessed a celestial root and a trace of technological divine light in his brain. If he were to take Lin Caogen out of this prison, he might one day cultivate into a Celestial Emperor, or even a demigod. At that time, when he sought revenge, Lin Caogen could be of great help to him.
Seeing Yang Guo's confidence, Lin Caogen felt reassured.
Yang Guo said, "Alright! We shall part ways here and meet again in three days. Be prepared, the path of cultivation is fraught with difficulties, often a matter of life and death before turning misfortune into fortune. I will see you off on your way back to shore as soon as possible."
After saying this, Yang Guo waved his hand, and an invisible force was transmitted to Lin Caogen's yacht.
Before Lin Caogen could even stand firmly, the yacht began to accelerate towards the land.
As the speed increased, Lin Caogen felt a strong wind rising in his face, and the yacht was about to fall apart.
Dozens of seconds later, his luxury yacht had reached a speed of 3,000 kilometers per hour.
After reaching a speed of 3,500 kilometers per hour, the speed began to gradually decrease, and the cruise ship glided across the sea until its speed reached zero. Yang Guo's single palm strike had sent Lin Caogen's luxury yacht thousands of kilometers away before it came to a stop.
"Is this the power of an immortal's palm strike? So powerful!"
Lin Caogen lay on the cruise ship deck, muttering to himself.
Standing up, Lin Caogen went to the cockpit and saw on the navigation system that he was only two or three thousand kilometers away from Pengcheng. He suppressed his excitement and drove at full speed toward Pengcheng.
After a day and a night, Linzhitang's luxury yacht finally returned to Pengcheng.
After secretly giving his parents the elixir (pretending it was a sugar pill), Lin Caogen wrote a farewell letter and placed the remaining elixir in his father's safe. He then flew to the capital.
He wanted to see Song Wanyue.
All her good fortune was thanks to Song Wanyue. If Song Wanyue hadn't given her the Heart of the Ocean as a breakup fee, she wouldn't have met Yang Guo.
His mother worked at a nuclear power plant for many years, and her health was deteriorating day by day. However, after taking the elixir given to her by Yang Guo yesterday, she miraculously became more than ten years younger. All the hidden injuries on her body disappeared.
His father, who had been suffering from liver toxins, had his sallow face instantly turn pale and rosy after taking the elixir.
After taking the elixir, both elders experienced the miraculous effects of the "sugar pill." They even believed it to be a completely new medical drug.
Even though he was destined to die, the broken DNA in his body was repaired and his lifespan was extended by three hundred years after taking the elixir.
Such immense kindness and virtue were all bestowed by Song Wanyue. I must give Song Wanyue an elixir to repay her kindness.
Whether driven by emotion, gratitude, infatuation, or karma, Lin Caogen must personally deliver the last elixir to Song Wanyue.
The moment Song Wanyue opened her cherry-like mouth and swallowed the elixir, it marked the end of Lin Caogen's and Song Wanyue's fate.
The Imperial Royal Manor was bustling with guests.
Xu Longhu, the young master of the Xu family, is getting engaged to Song Wanyue, the daughter of the Song family, today.
At the engagement banquet, hundreds of entrepreneurs presented gifts. The royal estate, spanning ten square kilometers, was filled with thousands of spectators, creating a lively and festive atmosphere.
The chairman of Jin Tu Pharmaceutical stood in a corner of the Royal Manor and said to the CEO of Meng Gang Group, "Young Master Xu's marriage and engagement is a major event in the business world. Old Zhang, what is the congratulatory gift you sent this time?"
The chairman of Menggang Group said, "Naturally, it's a Vajra Umbrella made of rare alloys from our group, paired with a new Rolls-Royce car."
He Fang, chairman of Jin Tu Pharmaceutical, laughed and said, "Great idea. I gave Young Master Xu a box of ancient ginseng to help him recover and wish them a son soon. I just went to the restroom to pee, and guess what? I saw Lin Caogen, chairman of Linzhitang, here too!"
The CEO of Menggang Group exclaimed, "What? Lin Caogen is here too! Isn't Song Wanyue his ex-girlfriend? Hahaha! This is going to be interesting! Is he going to bring two boxes of cordyceps as a congratulatory gift?!"
