Chapter 469 - 322: Zhao Yun’s Divine Might, Eight Hundred Breaks Ten Thousand, Demon God’s Nether Remains

[Xiang Ji quickly received news of the Seven Kingdoms sending troops to seize the "Pill Formula."]

[The Yuan and Jin countries are closest to the "Qing Country," and two generals from the Second Heaven arrived in Qing Country’s territory early. Xiang Ji met with General Ma Hong from the Yuan Country, who brought a verbal order from Emperor Yuan Xiang Wenlong, hoping Xiang Ji would return to the Yuan Country.]

[— Bestowed the title of Marquis Changle, Tier Two Middle Grade Spirit Vein, and a City Lord position.]

[This offer is a hundred times better than this rural area; Ma Hong is confident Xiang Ji will abandon Qing Country and agree. If the Yuan Country monopolizes the Blood Replenishing Pill Formula, it can nurture a second True Martial Lord among its million soldiers, raising troops to sweep the land and seize Great Xia’s land and people.]

[Xiang Ji glanced at Zhao Yun, who was not a commanding general nor a soldier leader, so how could he understand what Yiya Ancestor’s developed Blood Replenishing Pill Formula meant for Blood Origin Warriors? The exchange of Blood Replenishing Pills for "silver" was poorly considered.]

[Revealing such a wondrous item, Qing Country would never see a peaceful day.]

[However, if Ma Hong had arrived an hour earlier, Xiang Ji might have considered it for his own safety. Now...]

[He is more than capable of defending himself.]

[Xiang Ji decided to openly conduct the "Blood Replenishing Pill" business, as only Yiya Ancestor could refine it, and the pill formula held no mysteries.]

[Even if Eight Nation Guest Minister Pill Masters tasted it, they could analyze the "medicinal materials," but could not replicate it to the extent of a "Low-Tier Spirit Seed," believing the most crucial step was missing.]

[This alchemy technique, from Yiya Ancestor’s sect "Cyan Mountain," is an exclusive secret, created in the Cyan Mountain Daoist Master’s youth through painstaking effort, using Heaven and Earth Melting Furnace power to transform decay into magic.]

[It is akin to methods used in Martial Arts Hall to refine "Creation Spirit Pills."]

[Yiya Ancestor has eight hundred years of Primordial Spirit Dao Practice, abundant magical power, and failed experiences to forge a pill free of pill toxicity yet containing faint "Spiritual Charm."]

[According to Xiang Ji’s understanding, it is a professional talent exclusive to "Qi Cultivators." Even if the Blood Replenishing Pill Formula were handed over to the Yuan Country, their Pill Masters could not refine it.]

[With this pill formula sold, and the Yuan Country unable to refine it, they would come laying charges. It’s better to clarify openly.]

[As for whether they believe it... Xiang Ji has the Divine Zhao Yun, with a mythical record of "seven breakthroughs amidst millions of troops," directly shattering the Western Heaven World, which is a Divine Buddha World within a flourishing era of cultivation.]

[Zhao Yun said Western Heaven Buddha Soldiers, Arhats, and Bodhisattvas could move mountains and fill seas, their prowess comparable to Soldier Masters, and the overall strength of Western Heaven World is much stronger than the Overlord countries.]

[Despite Zhao Yun reforming his true body and falling to the Unrivaled Realm with no troops from one province to assist him, Zhao Yun is confident he can protect Xiang Ji, fighting his way seven times in and seven times out amid millions of troops.]

[Zhao Yun’s True Spirit is famed on the Martial Arts Golden Stele, protected by Celestial Intent of Yellow Heaven, preventing any forbidden existence from other worlds from taking his True Spirit from "Yellow Heaven."]

[Zhao Yun believes he arrived in this unfamiliar world due to the command of Yellow Heaven, to assist their world’s ally—Donghuang Taiyi.]

[Thus, Zhao Yun will do his utmost to assist Xiang Ji.]

[Therefore, Xiang Ji is indifferent whether people believe him or not; believe if you wish. He is not bothered to explain.]

[Xiang Ji only accepts "silver" and "gold" for transactions.]

[Silver is a wondrous item to ward off evil, a hard currency in the Hundred Kingdoms of Great Xia, and a carrier of spirituality for Spirit Weapons, a family heirloom.]

[Gold is a hundred times rarer than silver. Besides forging Top-Rank Spiritual Soldiers and Unparalleled Spiritual Weapons, it is an essential treasure for the "Melting Furnace Realm Soldier Lord," a national treasure.]

[Upon hearing this condition, Ma Hong showed dismay, as the Yuan Country annexed numerous vassal states, and the Commander-in-Chief lavishly raised troops on the battlefield. Not to mention gold, even silver was insufficient.]

[Certainly, Ma Hong did not believe only "Qing Country" Pill Masters could refine this Blood Replenishing Pill, simply taking Xiang Ji’s statement as haggling.]

[At this time, Qing Country’s guard Qi Chen reported that Jin Country’s General Cao Wei sought an audience.]

[Ma Hong coldly snorted and then closed his eyes, resting; Qing Country’s fighting soldiers numbered only eight hundred, with only Flying Swallow Thirteen, a mere Samurai, and without Yuan Country’s cavalry protection, how could they defend that miraculous Blood Replenishing Pill Formula?]

[He merely wanted to watch Emperor Yuan’s son’s folly, as the other Overlord countries wouldn’t care about Xiang Ji’s status as a useless prince.]

[If not given, then seize it.]

["This useless prince from Yuan Country actually established a country in this ten li rural area?"]

["Dreaming of becoming a king, he’s gone mad."]

[Jin Country’s General Cao Wei stared at the stone tablet engraved with "Qing Country," sneering repeatedly.]

[No one considered the ten li territory of Qing Country a country; this rural Spirit Realm should be called Qing Country domain, Qing Country township — not Qing Country!]

[As soon as Xiang Ji saw Cao Wei bringing "ten thousand catties of silver," he sold the Blood Replenishing Pill Formula without hesitation.]

[Cao Wei was stunned, letting Jin Country Guest Ministers verify authenticity, and Jin Country Guest Ministers nearly laughed upon inspecting the pill formula; it was identical to what he had deciphered.]

[Jin Country Guest Ministers easily deciphered the Blood Replenishing Pill Formula but could never refine the original "Blood Replenishing Pill," so Cao Wei personally came to this rural Spirit Realm to collect the pill formula.]

[They paid a great price not to buy a "Low-Tier Elixir" pill formula.]

[Such low-grade elixir is unused for cultivation by warriors above martial artists.]

[Jin Country was willing to offer the value of ten thousand catties of silver because this pill formula could use "ordinary medicinal materials" to refine effects comparable to a "Low-Tier Spirit Seed," while worldly Spirit Veins were limited, and the Spirit Seeds cultivated were limited in supporting Blood Origin Warriors.]

[Hence, Qing Country’s Blood Replenishing Pills hold strategic value.]

[Yet, the alchemy method of Yiya Ancestor is unlearnable by common people.]
