Chapter 159 The Advantages of Technological Creations

That's true; anti-aging serums like this are not uncommon in the Marvel universe.

Characters like Bucky Barnes (Winter Soldier), Natasha (Black Widow), and even Nick Fury (Director of S.H.I.E.L.D.) have all been injected with similar drugs, which is why they can maintain the physique and vitality of someone in their twenties or thirties even in their seventies or eighties.

All of the above are just Earth's cutting-edge technologies; the Chitauri, who are already famous throughout the universe for their biotechnology, need no further explanation.

Those high-ranking nobles who regularly injected anti-aging serums all lived for hundreds of years, with the longest-lived of these old nobles even exceeding a thousand years old, demonstrating just how powerful the serum's effects were.

Of course, to live this long, serum alone is not enough; mechanical modifications are also needed, such as implanting cybernetic prosthetics to replace organs that have aged and deteriorated beyond repair.

Therefore, few of the high-ranking nobles of the Chitauri were made of flesh and blood.

Even the youngest of the new nobles have at least a quarter of their bodies equipped with cybernetic prosthetics.

Su Haoming introduced the situation of this cosmic race to Li Shimin.

After hearing this, the latter frowned and said, "Our bodies and hair are given to us by our parents. How can we easily give them up?"

Su Haoming laughed and said, "This is just the theoretical limit of the anti-aging serum. I'm not asking you to copy it exactly. Simply injecting the serum can extend the lives of your veterans by decades or even hundreds of years!"

"..."

Upon hearing this, Li Shimin's brows relaxed, and he turned his gaze to the serum on the display stand with longing.

How much does it cost?

"Hmm, I really didn't know that..."

"Ok?"

Li Shimin was taken aback and looked at Su Haoming in surprise: "Brother Su, you don't know either?"

Su Haoming shrugged and said, "The treasures in the Treasure Pavilion are all Brother Lin's collection, not items on the shelves. How would I know the prices of these things?"

Li Shimin: "..."

Then why did you bring me here? Aren't you just making me anxious?

Su Haoming smiled and said, "Don't worry, just because it's not on the shelves doesn't mean we can't get it. Brother Lin is a very easy person to talk to. As long as you come with me to teach at the academy, getting a few vials of serum won't be a problem."

Li Shimin: "..."

In the end, it all comes back to teaching at the academy!
After a moment's thought, he said softly, "In that case, let's wait for Brother Lin to return before discussing it further!"

Afterwards, Li Shimin and Su Haoming continued to browse the Treasure Pavilion. About an hour later, Lin Yu finally brought Yun Ye back to his inner universe.

Like Li Shimin, Yun Ye also chose to stay next to the Yuhao Palace. After moving in with his bags, he then joined the two of them.

"Old Yun, you've finally arrived!"

Su Haoming and Li Shimin greeted them with smiles.

After exchanging greetings, Yun Ye sighed and said, "Don't even mention it. The environment of Kunlun Mountain is even more severe than I imagined. After I arrived there, it took me a full three hours to build a palace before my magic power was exhausted."

Can a palace be built in three hours?

Su Haoming clicked his tongue and said, "As expected of someone with dual spiritual roots in water and earth, I'm not sure I could do that!"

Yun Ye shook his head and said, "It's just a framework, at best it's just a bare shell. After leaving Brother Lin's dojo, I'll have to rush back to renovate it..."

Lin Yu, standing nearby, laughed and said, "Don't be so ungrateful. Kunlun Mountain in your world is a blessed land, so even if it takes a few more hours, it's definitely worth it."

"Before I left, I saw a group of white apes resting by the Heavenly Lake. They were all quite intelligent. With a little guidance, they could be recruited to work as assistants in your Jade Capital, doing odd jobs..."

Upon hearing this, Yun Ye chuckled, seemingly indicating that he did indeed have this plan.

Su Haoming turned to Lin Yu and asked, "By the way, Brother Lin, where's Lao Fan? Why is he slower than Yun Ye?"

Lin Yu laughed and said, "Wasn't Wu Zhu's performance enhanced by Linghua before? After returning, he went to the Arctic to take over the temple and turned it into Fan Xian's backyard..."

Su Haoming immediately understood: "So, he plans to fix the portal in the North Pole?"

Lin Yu nodded and said, "That's right."

Su Haoming laughed and said, "No wonder it's so slow..."

At this point in the conversation, everyone paused for a moment. Li Shimin, who had been hesitant and reluctant to speak, finally seized the opportunity and asked the question he most wanted to ask.

"Oh, it's an anti-aging serum!"

Lin Yu looked enlightened, then laughed and said, "So that's why you've been hesitating! You wanted this!"

"Don't worry, even if you didn't say anything, I planned to put these serums on the group store. As for the price, don't worry, it will definitely be much cheaper than the treasures on the Xianxia side!"

Li Shimin's face lit up with joy, and Yun Ye, who was standing next to him, was also somewhat tempted when he heard about the effects of the anti-aging serum.

The two exchanged a glance and quickly asked, "So how many exactly? One hundred points?" One hundred points?
Lin Yu looked puzzled, shook his head, and held up five fingers, saying, "Tentatively, five points per item."

"So cheap?!"

Su Haoming couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, exchanging bewildered glances with the two people beside him.

Lin Yu smiled and said, "Compared to other power systems, the advantage of technological creations is that they can be mass-produced, making them naturally cheap enough."

To be honest, five points would be a bit expensive if it weren't for the fact that too much serum would cause chaos in the group's world.

After all, this thing only has a technical barrier; it's not difficult to manufacture. If the Marvel universe's Linghua II were to operate at full capacity, it could produce millions of units in just one day!
Upon hearing Lin Yu's words, Yun Ye and Li Shimin exchanged a glance, both revealing anticipation.

Li Shimin goes without saying, and Yun Ye also has many relatives around him, so naturally he needs this kind of thing.

Of the three, only Su Haoming had a strange expression and couldn't help but say, "So, I worked so hard teaching at the academy, and all I got was a reward worth ten points?"

Lin Yu said with a smile, "You asked for this yourself."

Su Haoming complained, "I didn't know this thing was so cheap!"

Li Shimin, who was standing next to him, realized what was happening and couldn't help but laugh.

No wonder this guy recommended anti-aging serum to him; it turns out he already got his hands on it because of his position as a teacher!

However, judging from Brother Lin's words, it seems that Su Haoming was given the right to choose treasures in the Treasure Pavilion, and Su Haoming himself chose two anti-aging and longevity serums.

You can't blame anyone else for that!

Of course, amidst the banter, Li Shimin and Yun Ye also realized something else—helping Lin Yu teach at the Immortal Cultivation Academy was actually being paid with treasures from the Treasure Pavilion!

The two exchanged a glance, both of them somewhat eager to make a move.

Lin Yu saw their interest and invited them with a smile to become teachers at the Immortal Cultivation Academy.

Li Shimin, being the least skilled in cultivation, could attend early morning classes at preschool. After the classes, he could return to the Three Kingdoms world through a portal, which theoretically wouldn't interfere with his handling of government affairs.

As for Yunye, Kunlun Mountain is quite far from Chang'an.

As the Marquis of Lantian in the Tang Dynasty, he certainly couldn't be missing for an extended period.

With this in mind, Lin Yu waved his hand and decided to help him open another small teleportation portal underground in Yunfu, so that Yunfu could be connected to Kunlun Mountain, saving him the time spent commuting.

The same applies to Fan Xian, who eventually arrived in his inner universe; he essentially got a free, fixed portal to the North Pole.

From this perspective, the one who suffered the most was actually Li Shimin, who was the first to make preparations.

Fortunately, Lin Yu has made a promise that as long as he wipes out Cao Wei and Eastern Wu and returns to the old capital, he will open another fixed teleportation portal between Chang'an and Chengdu.

In this way, Lin Yu fooled three more teachers for the children of the Immortal Cultivation Academy.

Although the three teachers had varying levels of cultivation and their teaching abilities were not entirely satisfactory, they were already the best teaching resources Lin Yu could find for the current cultivation academy!
……

……

Two days later, the three group members had experienced the life of a schoolteacher.

Lin Yu finally put various potions, serums, and Chitauri technology on the group store, prompting group members to make a purchase, spending half of their points in just a few minutes.

Li Shimin had the fewest points, but he was the one who made the most purchases.

He bought ten vials of anti-aging serum alone, and even five vials of the super soldier serum that cost ten points each, saying he wanted to build his own new Five Tiger Generals.

Two days later, Li Shimin was quite unaccustomed to returning to the spiritually sparse Three Kingdoms world. It was as if he had suddenly gone from the fresh air of the suburbs to a factory filled with black smoke, and even his breathing was a little difficult.

He took a deep breath, took out the spirit stone from his storage bag, and held it in his hand, which made him feel a little more at ease.

Stepping out of the palace's hidden chamber, one's eyes are drawn to a reclining chair draped with a blanket. Zhuge Liang, the Prime Minister of Shu Han, is sitting in the chair, intently handling the affairs at hand.

Seeing this, Li Shimin was deeply moved and immediately stepped forward, softly calling out:
"Father."

"..."

Zhuge Liang snapped out of his reverie and quickly rose from his reclining chair: "Your Majesty!"

Li Shimin stepped forward to help him up, and said with a smile, "Prime Minister, there's no need for such formalities. I've been gone for two days, leaving all the affairs of state to you. It should be me apologizing to you!"

Zhuge Liang laughed and said, "It is my duty to share Your Majesty's burdens. How can Your Majesty apologize to an old minister?"

At this point, he suddenly paused, glancing slightly at the young and handsome man in white behind Li Shimin, and frowned slightly.

Li Shimin noticed his gaze, immediately released his hand, and said with a smile, "Father, do not be alarmed. This man is named Li Xian, and he was my old servant when I was the Heavenly Lord."

"Now that I have returned to the Heavenly Palace, Li Xian must naturally accompany me to the mortal realm. Once the great undertaking is accomplished, he will return to the Heavenly Palace!"
