Oliver Sheng could only sigh. No wonder those from Martial Saint-level forces always used pills to replenish their essence.
Unlike him, who had to gnaw on a leg of lamb, panting.
It seemed he was still poor. He couldn’t afford to treat pills like candy. What kind of wealth was that?
The Divine Mother of the Dark Moon Palace watched everyone eating with relish, her delicate brows furrowing slightly. Was it really that delicious?
In the past, she only consumed spiritual herbs or medicinal meals to replenish her essence. She rarely ate ordinary food.
“Is it really that good?” the Divine Mother asked.
“Uh?!” Oliver looked up at her and replied, “It’s alright.”
The seasoning was lacking, and the taste was quite different. After all, it was missing Sichuan pepper, black pepper, chili, and cumin.
The Divine Mother said no more, sitting quietly on the grassland, frequently looking up at the night sky.
The night sky was filled with sparkling stars!
“What are you looking at?” Oliver asked, seeing how focused she was.
“The sky!”
Oliver: ……
Looking at the sky, huh? This cold goddess really had her reasons for being so aloof.
Late at night, back in his tent, Oliver checked the golden Light Screen in his sea of consciousness.

Kill Points:

Space: (Millennium Ginseng: Six; Millennium Ganoderma: Thirteen…)
Sweeping through the Barbarian tribes had accumulated his Kill Points to 510,000.
If the Dark Moon Palace hadn’t intervened, allowing the Barbarian tribes to escape, Oliver’s Kill Points might have reached over 800,000.
For now, he didn’t plan to advance his realm. His cultivation methods and secret techniques were already at a sufficient level.
Oliver rummaged through the old Taoist Astral’s space ring, looking for any valuable manuals or secret arts.
He had to admit, the old Taoist Astral was like a wealth-bringing boy. In the space ring, Oliver found several pieces of black iron ore.
Three pieces of black iron and red gold. Oliver planned to forge weapons once he broke through to the Martial Saint Realm.
There were many Daoist manuals. Among the pile of books, Oliver found a pill refining notebook.
He had never had the time to organize the old Taoist’s space ring, but there were indeed many good things inside.
Oliver picked up the pill refining notebook and started reading. He wanted to try his hand at pill refining.
Too many of his subordinates were waiting to be fed. Relying on buying pills from the Pill Sect couldn’t keep up with the consumption.
Oliver, already at the Yin Spirit Limit of Daoism, could start refining pills once he learned the art.
After reading the notebook, a new section for pill refining appeared on the golden Light Screen in his sea of consciousness.
Oliver was delighted. He thought he would have to figure it out slowly, but his Golden Finger directly recorded it, allowing him to allocate points to improve.
No wonder it was a T1 version, truly powerful.
Oliver immediately allocated points, consuming Kill Points to improve.
A hundred Kill Points vanished, and a vast amount of pill refining knowledge and experience flooded his mind.
It was as if Oliver had been refining pills for two and a half years. His pill refining skill directly reached the first level.
Unable to hide his joy, Oliver continued to allocate points, consuming a thousand Kill Points in an instant.
He had so many Kill Points that it was terrifying. He could easily improve his pill refining skill.
Consuming a thousand Kill Points, Oliver advanced his pill refining skill to the second level.
Ten thousand, twenty thousand, thirty thousand!
He advanced his pill refining skill to the fifth level but could not improve further.
The notebook only recorded insights and experiences up to the fifth level.
Consuming 61,100 Kill Points to advance his pill refining skill to the fifth level, Oliver was overjoyed.
If he had a pill furnace and enough spiritual herbs, he would have started refining pills immediately.
Oliver’s army, with millions of cattle, sheep, warhorses, and prisoners, took half a month to return to the River West grasslands.
“The General has returned victorious! The General has returned victorious!” The scouts on the perimeter ran back, shouting.
“The General is back?” Felix Wu was stunned, dropping his whip and running.
“General Sheng has returned victorious!!” Jade Han lifted the tent flap and stepped out.
“Let’s go welcome the General!” Chi Tiansheng led a thousand heavy cavalry to welcome Oliver Sheng.
Oliver’s triumphant return excited his soldiers immensely.
Except for those guarding the prisoners, everyone else went to greet him.
Jade Han, Felix Wu, and others saw the grand army coming from the north, flags waving, and the long wind blowing.
The overwhelming momentum made Jade Han feel a suffocating pressure. This was a true iron-blooded army.
“Welcome back, General!” Felix Wu raised his arm and shouted.
“Welcome back, General!”
“Welcome back, General Sheng!!”
The soldiers’ loud shouts echoed far and wide.
Oliver led his men, riding forward, their iron armor gleaming, their momentum unmatched. Oliver’s domineering aura made Jade Han’s heart race.
What a valiant young general, his heroic spirit unmatched in the world!
“Whoa!!”
Oliver reined in his horse, his white warhorse rearing up, its front hooves striking the air and neighing.
A young man in a red robe and silver armor, riding fiercely into battle!
His handsome face was full of determination, his demeanor extraordinary.
“Welcome back, General!” Felix Wu said excitedly. Oliver had finally returned.
With Oliver back, Felix felt he had found his backbone again.
“Victory!”
Oliver raised his silver spear high.
His soldiers behind him shouted, “Victory, victory!!”
The magnificent momentum made Jade Han’s heart surge.
From now on, Oliver Sheng would be the overlord of this grassland.
Soon, Felix Wu and Jade Han were stunned by the endless cattle, sheep, and warhorses on the grassland.
“So much mutton,” Chi Tiansheng couldn’t help but drool.
“General, are those all the spoils of war?” Felix Wu couldn’t help but ask.
“Yes, those are the cattle, sheep, and warhorses we captured. Lead some men to help receive them,” Oliver said with a smile.
“How many are there!!” Jade Han couldn’t help but exclaim.
Oliver looked at Jade Han, unfamiliar, and asked, “Who is she?”
“General, she is an envoy sent by His Majesty to reward our River West Army,” Felix Wu replied.
“Someone from the Capital City!”
“General Sheng, I am Jade Han, His Majesty’s maid, sent to reward the River West Army,” Jade Han said boldly.
“So, it’s Envoy Han.” Oliver nodded.
“In this battle, we fought to Shelechuan, nearly wiping out the entire Barbarian tribe, capturing millions of cattle, sheep, and warhorses, and killing over 500,000 Barbarian soldiers. From now on, the Moran grasslands south of the Sudden Desert belong to Great Wei and our River West grasslands,” Oliver said loudly.
Since she was the Empress’s maid, Oliver recounted the battle’s details for her to report to the Empress.
Hearing Oliver’s words, Jade Han was completely stunned.
