Chapter 2807: Chapter 21: The Wang Family Saintess Dominates the Sacred Domain (Part 5)
Innate Saintess! Indeed, she is an Innate Saintess~~!
Tianyang Saint Emperor’s face suddenly fell a little.
He had actually already suspected this when he saw Wang Luo Jing so young yet possessing such cultivation base. However, during that previous battle when she hadn’t used the Sacred Image, he was somewhat puzzled and uncertain.
Yes~ What kind of family can nurture such a child? Could it be that the Divine Martial Changning Wang Clan is truly some terrifying hidden noble family?
As a generation’s Saint Emperor, Tianyang Saint Emperor naturally heard some legends about hidden noble families.
These families, without exception, are ancient families with long histories, terribly profound foundations, and should never be provoked. Truly, if you anger them, and they take it seriously, even the vast Sacred Dynasty passed down from ancestors might not be preserved.
"Your Majesty, think it over slowly." Wang Luo Jing instructed the Worm Generals to carry away the Seven Insect Immortal Monarch and said calmly, "I need to find a secluded place to further interrogate him about some secrets of the Insect Master."
With that, she left casually.
Tianyang Saint Emperor stared hard watching her departure, not daring to stop her in any way.
Saintesses like her are often central figures of their families; daring to let her out alone for training means she might have some trump card in hand. If he rashly made a move, for all he knew, he might accidentally summon a projection of some Taoist Master.
On one side, Tianyang Saint Emperor felt both aggrieved and helpless, while on the other side, Wang Luo Jing seemed completely unworried.
After leaving the Imperial Household farm, she truly found a secluded place and began brutally interrogating the Seven Insect Immortal Monarch.
The Seven Insect Immortal Monarch, knowing his life and death was completely in Wang Luo Jing’s hands, naturally dared not resist, and was utterly obedient throughout.
First, there was Wang Luo Jing’s demand for compensation.
The Seven Insect Immortal Monarch’s Storage Ring was rich in resources, with just twenty-eight pieces of Chaos Spirit Stone alone. All kinds of materials and resources added together were worth several Chaos Spirit Stones.
Wang Luo Jing didn’t bother being polite with him and took everything.
"Not bad, these will be for the reputational tarnishing fee for my Senior Brother."
Her eyes showed a hint of wickedness.
Of course, she intended to pocket this money herself. Joking~ her family contribution debt was still weighing heavily on her~
Though the family wouldn’t rush her, she could repay it slowly. But as a senior in the family and a role model in the eyes of countless juniors, she should take the lead. Especially now that the family’s population size was quite substantial, and the resources for the juniors in the clan were limited. Her owing much-needed family resources for too long would effectively mean indirectly occupying the juniors’ resources.
Being able to repay early, naturally she should.
"There’s another problem. You currently have quite a lot of resources, and it hasn’t been a hundred years since your last crime. Given your usual cautious behavior, it’s unreasonable to hastily commit another crime." Wang Luo Jing’s meticulous mind keenly sensed something off and began another brutal interrogation, even using the Ghost-eyed Butterfly for God Sense attacks.
The Seven Insect Immortal Monarch quickly couldn’t hold out, and after pleading with Wang Luo Jing to spare his life, he finally revealed the truth.
"I did it for a Taoist Yuan Pill. I had previously gathered information that the next black market auction on the Southern Blaze Divine Continent would commence about 150 years later, with a Taoist Yuan Pill among the auction items." The Seven Insect Immortal Monarch confessed painfully, "The money I have isn’t enough to bid for the Taoist Yuan Pill, so I wanted to make another big profit to secure the Taoist Yuan Pill."
Southern Blaze Divine Continent’s black market auction? Could it truly feature such a rare item as the Taoist Yuan Pill?
Wang Luo Jing’s eyes sharpened.
This was indeed a very valuable piece of news.
As far as she knew, her fourth brother, Wang Shouzhe, seemed quite eager for a Taoist Yuan Pill.
However, currently in the Dongxia Divine Dynasty, it was only the luck of Taoist Master Taichu leading to the creation of three. One was reputedly given to disciple Ying Lingzhu, while the other two are desired by various forces, but Taoist Master Taichu has been holding onto them.
In theory, the effects of the Taoist Yuan Pill are merely between the Elixir Improvement Liquid and the Holy Modification Liquid. The Wang family currently synthesizes a bottle of Holy Modification Liquid at the cost of just ten Chaos Spirit Stones, yet this Twelfth Class Taoist Yuan Pill surprisingly bids for as much as several dozen Chaos Spirit Stones, far beyond its actual value.
Undoubtedly, this is due to the production issue, causing an extremely inflated price.
Comparatively, the Wang family isn’t as desperate for it as other forces. Synthesizing Holy Modification Liquid is clearly more economical. The only significance of this pill to the Wang family is its non-conflicting efficacy with Holy Modification Liquid, thus used to maximally enhance bloodline.
However, whilst interested, Wang Luo Jing quickly sensed something wasn’t right.
Her eyes sank, and her voice turned severely cold: "Why does a True Immortal Realm so desire the Taoist Yuan Pill? That item is most effective for Saint or Saintess in the Void Realm. Even if you obtained it, what would happen? With your current cultivation, consuming the Taoist Yuan Pill would hardly aid you, and still wouldn’t advance you to the Great Luo Realm..."
"Could it be? Do you have a Sacred Image waiting for you to inherit?"
Wang Luo Jing’s thoughts whirled rapidly, her eyes flashing with a hint of excitement.
Indeed, Sacred Seeds of common families shouldn’t need to spend such a hefty cost to buy a highly valuable Taoist Yuan Pill to inherit a Sacred Image.
Considering the rarity and terrifying price of a Taoist Yuan Pill, even if not for nurturing Taozi, they are alternatively used for cultivating Great Luo Sacred Supreme’s late-stage seeds; otherwise not worth the cost. Thus, those requiring it are typically apex forces like the Primordial Taoist Palace or top Sacred Races like the Ying Clan.
If an Independent Cultivator wishes to purchase, it typically involves extremely unique circumstances.
For instance, cultivators coincidentally stumbling upon a Sacred Image by chance yet missing the optimal period to inherit it due to reaching True Immortal Realm.
Under such situations, the marrow washing effects of the Sacred Image diminish considerably, let alone the cultivators’ aptitude often doesn’t suffice to inherit the Sacred Image. If a broad-minded cultivator, they might choose to leave the opportunity to younger generations. Yet if unwilling and insist on inheriting the Sacred Image, they must find ways to enhance the bloodline.
A Twelfth Class Taoist Yuan Pill is the opportunity.
The requirements for consuming a Twelfth Class Taoist Yuan Pill are awakening bloodline level above eleven and level exceeding Void Realm. True Immortal Realm cultivators are obviously eligible consumers too. Additionally, with high cultivation strength and robust physique, True Immortal Realm cultivators can self-digest the pill’s effects even without a Taoist Master protector.
As such, bloodline potential improves, allowing a True Immortal Realm cultivator to barely inherit a Sacred Image.
However, doing so comes at an extremely high cost, common Independent Cultivators are often poor, and even if intent they might not afford a Taoist Yuan Pill. Nonetheless, this Seven Insect Immortal Monarch, trading on deception and possessing substantial wealth...
Damn! Wang Luo Jing is unbelievably astute!!
As Wang Luo Jing’s words fell, the Seven Insect Immortal Monarch’s face instantly became paler, revealing a look of despair in his eyes.
No matter what, he hadn’t expected his painstakingly concealed secret to be guessed by her!!
