Chapter 3195: Testing the Pill (Two)
“We’ve managed to make up for the lost population of the thirty-six cities through transferring people around, but we cannot replenish those lost Godkings and Primordial realm experts in a short amount of time.
“Our race only has half of the strength of our peak condition at most. If you want us to recover enough so that we can open the altar, we need at least fifty thousand high grade Godking pills.”
“And fifty thousand is only my conservative estimate. We might need even more than that,” the Darkstar Emperor said sternly.
“I will deal with the remaining Godking pills. You should distribute these Godking pills first and test out their effects. After all, this pill has never been tried. All of its effects are purely an estimate,” said Jian Chen.
“Alright!” The Darkstar Emperor agreed in an extremely straightforward manner.
Afterwards, the Darkstar Emperor immediately summoned several dozen members of the Darkstar race, planning to test the effects of the Godking pills on them.
The several dozen people varied in cultivation. The weakest was only equivalent to an Earth Saint Master.
Of course, due to the difference in race and cultivation system, the nature of power that an Earth Saint Master of the Darkstar race possessed was very different from Earth Saint Masters of the Tian Yuan Continent.
Apart from Earth Saint Masters, there were even Heaven Saint Masters, Saint Rulers, Saint Kings, Saint Emperors, Receival cultivators, Returnance cultivators, Reciprocity cultivators, Deities, Gods, and Overgods.
In order to accurately test the exact effects of the Godking pill, the Darkstar Emperor had summoned several members of each cultivation realm. There were even two Godkings among them.
They tested it in a huge square in the Darkstar Divine Hall.
In the centre of the square, the members of the Darkstar race waiting to test the pill stood in a single file. They were either excited or uneasy.
Apart from the Darkstar Emperor and Jian Chen, the ten hall masters had gathered in front of them too, planning to personally witness the effects of high grade Godking pills.
“You can begin!” With the Darkstar Emperor’s order, an attendant immediately distributed the high grade Godking pills one by one.
The clansmen for testing the pills had no idea what they were holding. Their eyes were only filled with determination as they swallowed the pill without hesitation.
With how dutiful they were, even if they clutched a pill of great poison, they would not hesitate in the slightest.
This was all because it was a personal order of the Darkstar Emperor. In the Darkstar World, the Darkstar Emperor was like a god. His orders were the will of the world. No one dared to defy him.
After ingesting the high grade Godking pills, the several dozen members of the Darkstar race immediately felt a surging energy erupt in their bodies, coupled with the profound presence of ways.
Immediately, they all crossed their legs and sat down. Their bodies shone with a resplendent glow, which turned into energy that enveloped them.
Immediately, several dozen blinding clusters of light appeared in the square. The patterns of the ways and laws even wove through the air.
Jian Chen, the Darkstar Emperor, and the ten hall masters all stared at the pill testers. Their gazes pierced through the energy and clearly saw everything happening to every single one of them.
High grade Godking grass had existed among the Darkstar race for countless years. It had been researched over countless years too, but due to various reasons, they struggled to make use of it. They were completely incapable of refining it into Godking pills like the outsiders.
All of the effects of high grade Godking grass was an estimation by the Darkstar race according to the developments that foreign cultivators had achieved with low grade Godking grass, as well as the effects of low grade Godking grass themselves.
As for whether that was truly the case, it was impossible to know without proper experimentation.
And right now was the perfect opportunity to observe the effects of high grade Godking grass.
Very few people paid attention to the Godhood cultivators among the several dozen testers. Most of them concentrated on the weaker clansmen.
In particular, the Heaven Saint Masters, Saint Rulers, Saint Kings, and Saint Emperors received the most attention.
Suddenly, the Heaven Saint Masters pulsed in presence. They had broken through in such a short amount of time, going from Heaven Saint Master to Saint Ruler.
The high grade Godking pills had already begun to demonstrate their effects!
“The effects are even milder than I imagined them to be. Even when weaker clansmen ingest them, they don’t have to worry about being overwhelmed and blowing up on the spot.” The Darkstar Emperor immediately smiled faintly at this sight.
Over a minute later, all of the Saint Rulers reached Saint King before continuing to break through and reaching Saint Emperor.
The weaker ones broke through first, achieving a drastic increase in a very short amount of time.
Meanwhile, the stronger they were, the longer they required to break through.
Jian Chen stared straight at the members of the Darkstar race that tested the pills. His eyes dimmed as if they had become as expansive as the starry sky. They seemed to hide an entire universe inside as the endless laws materialised.
He was peering into the effects of the pills as much as possible, wanting to see if these high grade Godking pills would leave behind any side effects or not.
As Jian Chen peered into the effects, time seemed to flow in the world within his eyes. Vaguely, he seemed to make out the blurry image of the future. He saw the various effects of the high grade Godking pills.
“I haven’t found any issues before Godking. As for after Godking, it’s still rather difficult for me to peer into it,” Jian Chen thought.
The high grade Godking pills gradually took effect. Under their close watch, the several dozen members of the Darkstar race grew at an unbelievable rate in strength. In just a month, they had completely absorbed the power of the high grade Godking pill.
All of the testers were unscathed, while their strength, regardless of whether they had been at the Mortal realm or Sainthood, had all reached Godking!
The cultivators who had been Deities, Gods, or even Overgods earlier had also become Godkings now, but due to their varying foundations, they were either early Godkings or mid Godkings.
The Godkings from before were still Godkings after ingesting the pills. Their cultivation had only increased slightly.
“Try and use your laws!” The Darkstar Emperor ordered immediately.
With that, the eyes of the ten hall masters suddenly narrowed. They were all filled with anticipation.
Whether the effects of the high grade Godking pills could attain what they were expecting came down to this.
