Capítulo 1450: Chapter 1435: Ironclad Rule

Ye Zhen casually fiddled with the pills in front of him and said leisurely, “King Peng Dan, to be honest, what I’m bringing out now are just some very ordinary pills and Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures.

The continent where I obtained these pills and treasures has over ten thousand types of pills you haven’t seen, and countless types of treasures that you haven’t come across, exceeding millions.

There are also some pills and treasures that are extremely rare on that continent.”

“That continent?”

Shuili Dan King’s pupils noticeably contracted, grasping the key point, “Great Saint Ye, have you ventured out of this continent and discovered another new continent?”

“You could say that!” Ye Zhen nodded, “Basically, I discovered an ancient continent vast as tens of thousands of times larger than the True Profound Continent, with resources tens of thousands of times more abundant.

In addition, through that continent, one can reach numerous ‘little worlds’ that have unique sceneries and yield unique products, the quantity of such worlds is unknown, numerous, numerous…..”

Before Ye Zhen finished speaking, Shuili Dan King suddenly grasped Ye Zhen’s hands eagerly and said, “Take me there, Great Saint Ye, take me to that ancient continent. Whatever the condition, I can agree!”

Originally, this was what Ye Zhen wanted, but Ye Zhen didn’t agree immediately; instead, he continued speaking.

“King Peng Dan, don’t be in a hurry, and let me finish! King Peng Dan, you wouldn’t think I came here specifically to show off these pills, would you?” Ye Zhen said.

Upon hearing this, Shuili Dan King nodded.

“To be honest, King Dan, that continent is called the Primordial Continent, rich in resources, most importantly, it possesses a complete Heavenly Dao. For the martial artists of our True Profound Continent who go there, their cultivation advances by leaps and bounds.

Under these circumstances, the continent hosts many powerful beings. The largest empire on that continent only needs to send out a half-camp of a thousand-man imperial guard to utterly destroy our True Profound Continent.

Our True Profound Continent, before the Primordial Continent, has no resistance capability.

However, everything has its advantages and disadvantages. Although the resources of our True Profound Continent are far inferior to those of the Primordial Continent, we still have many unique products, and there are even many Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures that are extremely scarce on the Primordial Continent. Dan King, do you understand what I mean by this?” Ye Zhen asked.

Shuili Dan King’s brows furrowed, “You mean that currently, the Primordial Continent hasn’t discovered our True Profound Continent’s existence, and compared to the Primordial Continent, True Profound Continent is highly valuable, so it must be kept secret?”

“That’s not a problem; I can make the most poisonous Divine Soul Oath!” Shuili Dan King said.

“No, no, no, King Peng Dan, you still don’t understand the power of the continent’s strongmen, the secret techniques and strange skills are endless, a Divine Soul Oath is useless before them.

If they wish to know, it’s very difficult for you to keep the secret.”

“So what does Great Saint Ye mean?”

“To be honest, King Peng Dan, currently, the passage to travel back and forth to that world from the True Profound Continent is only in my hands. In other words, if this secret leaks out, I fear the experts of the entire Primordial Continent will come to hunt me down.

And as of now, if I were to take you there, I couldn’t guarantee your absolute safety, and the situation wouldn’t be very favorable, should you unfortunately be captured by the enemy, and I am unable to rescue you.

Then before you are soul-searched by the enemy, to protect the secret here, I must have a method to make you scatter like dust at any time.

Only by fulfilling this condition would I potentially take you to that world.” Ye Zhen said.

Shuili Dan King wasn’t a fool, and upon hearing Ye Zhen’s words, he immediately understood because there aren’t many ways in this world that can make someone scatter like dust at any moment.

“Are you saying, you want me to surrender my Divine Soul and only after it’s collected can you possibly take me to that world?” Shuili Dan King asked.

Ye Zhen nodded, “I’m not forcing the Dan King, if the Dan King wishes to go to that world, I must control the Dan King’s Divine Soul for safety, to be prepared for any eventuality.

Of course, if the Dan King is unwilling, I won’t insist, I will continue to return to the Primordial Continent and continue to strive to accumulate strength.

When I feel that I have the power to protect the Dan King, or even the entire True Profound Continent, I will come back to take the Dan King to the Primordial Continent!”

“How many years would that take?” King Shuili Dan asked.

“It’s hard to say, as little as a hundred years, as much as a thousand years or even several thousand years, it’s possible.”

After Ye Zhen spoke, Shuili Dan King suddenly laughed bitterly and then said quietly, “Great Saint Ye, you know my disposition, bringing out so many novel pills, so many Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures that I have never seen before in front of me, what is this if not forcing?”

“Uh….” Ye Zhen was taken aback for a moment, “If the Dan King thinks so, then consider these pills before you as a gift from me as an apology to the Dan King. Please study them slowly. I will leave, and once I have the power to protect myself, I will come back for the Dan King!”

Before Ye Zhen could rise, Shuili Dan King held onto Ye Zhen’s sleeve, “Don’t say a thousand years, but after two or three hundred years, I will just be a mound of yellow earth, let it be……”

Suddenly, Shuili Dan King closed his eyes, completely opened his Divine Soul, letting Ye Zhen do as he wished.

Seeing this, Ye Zhen was overjoyed. This was Ye Zhen’s goal for this trip, to let Shuili Dan King willingly hand over his Divine Soul.

The Shuili Dan King is different from others. The leaders of other factions, whether they are willing or not, once Ye Zhen seals their Divine Souls, they have to work for him despite any reluctance they might feel.

But with the Shuili Dan King, if Ye Zhen forcibly takes him to the Primordial Continent, even if he’s willing to practice alchemy, the pills he creates would be full of resentment. How could the pills be good?

Let alone having a single-minded dedication to the Alchemy Dao.

Therefore, the Shuili Dan King must voluntarily offer his Divine Soul before Ye Zhen can take him away.

As for why the Shuili Dan King must willingly offer his Divine Soul for Ye Zhen to take him away, the reason is simple. What Ye Zhen mentioned earlier was not just alarming talk.

If an accident happens, and the Shuili Dan King is captured alive and reveals the secret here, then Ye Zhen, Jinghai, Fug Hai, Sea-Breaking, and even Senior Sister Liao Feibai might all perish because of it.

By that time, if foreign forces invade the True Profound Continent, Ye Zhen’s family and the entire continent would be in calamity.

Ye Zhen is too familiar with the nature of the Prince and nobles of the Great Zhou Empire.

To them, people from outside the Great Zhou Empire are no different from livestock.

Just look at how the Heavenly Patrol Department massacres the Southern Barbarian Tribe without sparing even the elderly, women, and children.

Ye Zhen doesn’t want such things to ever happen to his parents, children, relatives, and friends.

Therefore, before coming here, Ye Zhen had a secret discussion with his three elder brothers Jinghai, Fug Hai, Sea-Breaking, and Senior Sister Liao Feibai.

This time on his return, anyone Ye Zhen takes away, regardless of who they are, must have their Divine Soul sealed by him before they can be taken away.

This way, it ensures that in the event of their disappearance or capture, he can scatter their souls at any time to keep the secret safe.

This ironclad rule applies even to the bloodline descendants of Ye Zhen, Jinghai, Fug Hai, and the Great Sage Sea-Breaking.

When they’re taken away, their Divine Souls will be personally sealed by those three to prepare for any unforeseen circumstances.

There’s no choice, for this matter is extremely crucial.

“King Peng Dan, due to confidentiality reasons, I won’t be traveling back and forth too frequently. About once a year, I will leave the True Profound Continent and head to the Primordial Continent. Please make arrangements for matters on this side in advance.

If King Dan has any personnel you wish to bring over, please inform me, but regardless of who it is, they must have their Divine Souls sealed by me!” Ye Zhen emphasized.

Feeling an inherent sense of awe towards Ye Zhen, the Shuili Dan King’s lips initially curved into a bitter smile, but soon he was enlightened.

In his life as a Pill Fanatic, a madman for alchemy, pills are everything to him. For the sake of his alchemical journey, what does this sacrifice amount to?

“Great Saint, rest assured. The hundred disciples on the island, I will inquire one by one. If there are any who wish to go, since even this old man has given up his Divine Soul, they naturally will not be an exception!”

“That’s good!”

With those three words, Ye Zhen once again floated away into the distance.

After leaving Shuili Island, Ye Zhen changed his previous hastily comings and goings and instead lingered around the Outer Domain Dead Sea between the True Spirit Domain and Skywind Domain.

Every time he discovered an island, Ye Zhen would personally descend onto the island to carefully observe and search.

In less than half a month, Ye Zhen had explored over a thousand islands and discovered many quite rare Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, but he did not find the Severed Spirit Jade Scorpion.

This time, Ye Zhen’s return to the True Profound Continent, the Jade Finger Scorpion poison possessed by the Severed Spirit Jade Scorpion, is one of Ye Zhen’s most important targets.

This thing, just using the most primitive poison liquid can greatly affect powerful individuals in the Realm King Realm. If the Martial Capital in the Dark Palace Realm gets hit by it, they won’t be able to use a single trace of Spiritual Power. Its value is simply unimaginable.

If a large amount of Jade Finger Scorpion poison could be found and researched by the Shuili Dan King, perhaps it could lead to the creation of an extremely powerful poison pill, which could be of great use at a critical moment.

Upon arrival, Ye Zhen had his sister Liao Feibai reminisce and roughly draw a sketch of the island location where she discovered the Severed Spirit Jade Scorpion.

However, the Outer Domain Dead Sea is vast, with innumerable large and small islands.

Some islands even periodically emerge or disappear from the water.

If not for Senior Sister Liao Feibai providing some filtering features and rough boundaries, otherwise the difficulty would be akin to finding a needle in a haystack.

A few days later, as Ye Zhen was gliding above the sea surface, he suddenly saw a distant island reflecting countless rays of light against the sunset, making the entire island radiate with a rainbow of colors.

As Ye Zhen flew past, he saw scorpions the size of fingertips, wholly jade-colored, swaying their crystal-clear, glistening tails in the sunset.
