Chapter 1237: Holy Path Potion Type II! An Excited Colier!

Chapter 1237: Holy Path Potion Type II! Collier’s Exhilaration!

By the time the day drew to a close, Zhou Zhan had led his soldiers in an outward expansion, conquering five surrounding True God-tier lord factions and a staggering 215 lord factions of the myriad races.

In total, they had amassed 600,157,200 Hegemony Points alongside 302,000 Hidden Lord Shop Points!

Presently, Zhou Zhou held a grand total of 1,100,263,200 Hegemony Points and 456,900 Hidden Lord Shop Points within his grasp.

He nodded slightly at the sight.

Given the military strength Zhou Zhan currently commanded, it was already quite an impressive feat to achieve this much.

"Tomorrow marks the final day of the first stage of the Lords of All Races event."

"I must seize the opportunity and secure as many Hegemony Points and Hidden Lord Shop Points as possible."

Zhou Zhou murmured to himself.

Fortunately, the Eternal Mothership would arrive at the coordinates of the Blue Planet tomorrow, bearing his vast army and deities, at which point he could unleash an unrestrained campaign of conquest and expansion.

At that moment, Aniya's respectful voice echoed from outside:

"Reporting to the King, the High God of the Baelon Empire, Colir, requests an audience."

"Let him in."

Zhou Zhou said it casually.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Aniya replied with due reverence.

Soon after.

Colir entered.

"Your Majesty, I am at your service."

"What is it?"

"Your Majesty, as the campaign against the aberrant demon clan will continue tomorrow, I propose that we simply station the barbarian army within the realm itself. This way, we can all depart together tomorrow. Thus, I have come specially to request Your Majesty's approval."

Colir spoke respectfully.

"Agreed."

"However, from now on, such minor matters should be handled directly by Zhou Zheng—there's no need to come before me for such things."

Zhou Zhou said.

"…Yes, Your Majesty."

"I am not very familiar with Zhou Zheng's affairs, so I have disturbed Your Majesty. Please forgive me."

Colir paused, quickly bowing in deference.

He had only just arrived in the Sunlight Empire and was still unfamiliar with its internal procedures. It was only upon realizing this matter that he had decided to come directly to Zhou Zhou, the original form, to resolve it.

"Please don't worry."

"It'll be fine once you get used to it."

Zhou Zhou waved his hand, naturally indifferent to such trivialities.

Then, something occurred to him. "Colir."

"Your servant."

"You performed well today—consider this a reward from me."

Zhou Zhou spoke, and tossed a world ring to him.

Colir quickly caught it, then immediately bowed respectfully, "Thank you, Your Majesty. However, this is merely my duty, and no special reward is needed."

"Take it. Just take it."

"...Thank you, Your Majesty!"

"Look at it yourself,"

Zhou Zhou said casually.

"Yes, Your Majesty,"

Colir nodded, and then his consciousness entered the World Ring. There, within the ring, he saw exactly ten thousand bottles of amethyst-colored elixirs.

Inside each crystal-clear vial flowed a pure, shimmering liquid, resembling the vastness of the cosmos—so radiant and mesmerizing that one could not look away.

Colir's eyes widened instantly.

He did not mistake this elixir.

It was the very elixir of their race—the most sacred elixir of the Trolls—the Holy Path Elixir!

With ten thousand vials of the Holy Path Elixir, they could perform the Sacred Rite upon their Golden Trolls, granting them a chance to ascend to Purple Crystal Troll status!

Once a Purple Crystal Troll, they would become land dominators of their tier—capable of dismantling even the terrifying beings of the pure-blooded Dragon Clan!

Colir's heart surged with excitement.

If used effectively, these ten thousand vials of Sacred Path Elixir would surely bring the Borom race a minimum of two or three thousand Purple Crystal Boroms!

For the Borom race, whose total number of Purple Crystal Boroms currently falls short of ten thousand, this would represent an immense boost.

Yet, even as he felt the thrill, a quiet alarm stirred within him.

After all, the Sacred Path Elixir—a potion of true god-tier power—requires true god-tier divine herbs in its creation.

Producing ten thousand vials would demand a staggering amount of such divine herbs.

Even a high-ranking divine nation lordship, perhaps, would struggle to gather so many herbs for the crafting of these elixirs.

But with his sharp observational skills, he quickly noticed that these ten thousand vials of Sacred Path Elixir seemed subtly different from the ones he was familiar with.

Just as he was pondering this discrepancy,

Zhouzhou, as if sensing his thoughts, spoke calmly:

"The ten thousand vials of Holy Path elixirs you see have undergone refinement and innovation by experts from across our nation—doctors, pharmacists, alchemists, scientists, and medical scholars, among others."

"Plus a touch of the Emperor’s personal touch, and thus, this elixir was born."

"The original Holy Path elixir only achieved a 20% success rate in helping Golden Ogres ascend to Purple Crystal Ogres."

"Now, the second-generation Holy Path elixir not only boasts an 80% success rate in facilitating the ascension of Golden Ogres, but ensures that every successful Purple Crystal Ogre attains at least the potential of a lower-tier Deity."

"It is effectively a Deity-tier potential ascension elixir, exclusive to your Ogre lineage."

"It stands as a near-perfect achievement."

"Significantly superior to the primitive version of the original elixir."

"However, if one were to invest in additional Deity-tier elixirs, perhaps a version achieving 100% ascension success could be developed."

"But such a formula would be economically unviable, and thus, it was discarded by the Emperor."

Zhou Zhou did not lie.

In the refinement of the Sacred Path elixirs, professionals from various domains within his nation undoubtedly played a vital role.

Yet the single most significant contribution came from him himself.

It was precisely through the mythical-tier, unique master ability—The Book of Genes—recently acquired, and the mythical-tier, unique master ability—The Life Ark—containing the life sciences legacy left by the Goddess of Life, that he forged the foundation.

By combining these two, integrating the principles of the Sacred Ritual and the elixir-making process of the Sacred Path elixirs,

and further enriched by the vast knowledge of bloodline inheritances stored within his own mind,

plus the dedicated research and refinement he had conducted over a period of time within the Age of Time,

it was only through the convergence of all these elements that he created the Sacred Path Elixir Type II.

No faction—no matter how advanced, no matter how elite in bloodline—could have achieved such a perfect elixir in such a short span of time.

But Zhou Zhou had gathered all the successful factors, and thus, it was only through this convergence that he brought forth such a masterpiece.

Colir immediately pulled out a vial of Saint Path Elixir from his World Ring and examined it carefully.

As the effect description of the Saint Path Elixir appeared before his eyes, Colir was struck deeply.

This... this is truly a Saint Path Elixir with an 80% chance of advancement?!

And one crafted by the Emperor himself?!

A genuine sense of devotion made Colir completely believe that Zhou Zhou was not lying—indeed, Zhou Zhou had not lied at all.

"Your Majesty, you are a blessing to our Kobold race!"

Colir fell to his knees instantly, bowing in heartfelt gratitude.

In that moment, his heart overflowed with gratitude toward his Emperor.

Holding the Saint Path Elixir Type II, Colir now seemed to glimpse the dawn of hope for the revival of the Kobold nation.

Once again, deep within his soul, he felt with certainty that his decision to lead the entire Kobold Empire and pledge loyalty to the Emperor had been nothing short of the most correct choice.
