Seeing Luo Li lose her composure, Ye Yun smiled softly, a strange expression on his face. Just a Divine Marrow Cleansing Pill, he thought. He had enough in his storehouse to build a mountain of them as high as the Himalayas.
At Ye Yun’s thought, the Marrow Cleansing Pill seed to sense his call and floated back to Luo Li’s palm.
"How could it be God Level?" Luo Li ca back to her senses, looking at the Old Ancestor in shock.
"Is God Level so strange?" Ye Yun looked at Luo Li curiously, smiling lightly.
"Old Ancestor, this Divine Marrow Cleansing Pill is so precious! I really can’t bear to consu it!" Luo Li held the Marrow Cleansing Pill in her palm, her eyes shining like those of a starving beast, and she swallowed hard.
A Divine Marrow Cleansing Pill! she thought in awe. Such a thing has never appeared in the entire Cangnan Continent. It exists only in legends!
Currently, the hierarchy of cultivation techniques, pills, and magical treasures, from lowest to highest, was: Mortal Level, Yellow Level, Spirit Level, Profound Level, Earth Level, Heaven Level, King Level, Emperor Level, and finally, God Level.
In the Cangnan Continent, people would kill for a Heaven Level Marrow Cleansing Pill. King Level ones, let alone anything higher, had never even appeared. Only ten levels were commonly known. So pills might reach King Level, but anything Emperor Level or above was purely the stuff of legend.
As for Marrow Cleansing Pills... the highest grade ever seen is rely Heaven Level, Inferior-grade. That’s the best Marrow Cleansing Pill even the top alchemists in the Cangnan Continent can refine.
Luo Li had lived her entire life in poverty. The best Marrow Cleansing Pill she had ever consud was rely a Yellow Level, Superior-grade.
At this mont, a green glint flashed in her eyes. If I sold this Divine Marrow Cleansing Pill, she sched, how many Heaven Level Marrow Cleansing Pills could I get for it?
Seeing the greedy look on the little girl’s face, Ye Yun smiled softly and took out a small Purple Gold Gourd.
"Don’t be reluctant to take it. This gourd contains ten thousand more Divine Marrow Cleansing Pills. You could eat them like candy, and it wouldn’t be a problem..."
Hearing Ye Yun’s words, Luo Li was shocked once again. She felt as if her entire brain had ceased to function.
"Old Ancestor, you... you aren’t joking, are you?" Luo Li asked tentatively.
If this Old Ancestor, who reached the Eternal Realm 100,000 years ago, happened to possess one Divine Marrow Cleansing Pill by so stroke of luck, that might be believable. After all, 100,000 years ago, the Dragon God Sect was incredibly prosperous. But to claim he has 10,000 Divine Marrow Cleansing Pills? That’s absolutely impossible!
"Do I look like I’m joking?" Ye Yun took out a small mirror and glanced at his reflection. He looked perfectly serious. How do I look like I’m joking? he wondered.
So, he casually tossed the Purple Gold Gourd to Luo Li. "Why don’t you open it and see for yourself, Luo Li?"
"Oh!"
Luo Li, still skeptical, took the Purple Gold Gourd. When she opened it, she discovered an entirely different space within. Countless Marrow Cleansing Pills floated densely inside; a quick count suggested at least eight or nine thousand. And each Marrow Cleansing Pill was exactly the sa as the one in her hand. Every single one was a God-level Top-grade Marrow Cleansing Pill!
As if struck on the head by a heavy hamr, Luo Li was so shocked she was rendered speechless, her mind a complete blank.
This... she stamred internally. So many God-level Top-grade Marrow Cleansing Pills! If word of these got out, the countless powerful factions in the Cangnan Continent would surely fight to the death over them! Even Eternal Level major sects would be annihilated overnight! A single Divine Marrow Cleansing Pill could create a genius! A peerless genius!
"Old Ancestor, am I dreaming?" Luo Li rubbed her eyes, looking dazed, as if she couldn’t believe it.
"This is all real, little one," Ye Yun said gently, his expression kind. He could see that this 298th Sect Master of the Dragon God Sect had endured many hardships and grievances growing up. This touched Ye Yun’s heart deeply.
He inwardly vowed, I must transform this historically weakest Sect Master of the Dragon God Sect into the most brilliant and dazzling prodigy on the continent!
"Boo hoo..." Luo Li covered her face and began to cry, overwheld. She didn’t know why she was crying. Perhaps she was just too overjoyed.
"Luo Li, stop crying. Hurry and consu this Divine Marrow Cleansing Pill," Ye Yun said with a smile.
Luo Li managed to stop her tears. Years of being a fugitive, constantly hiding, had forged an extrely resilient character; her self-control far surpassed that of her peers.
She respectfully handed the Purple Gold Gourd back to Ye Yun.
"This gourd of Divine Marrow Cleansing Pills is for you!" Ye Yun waved his hand.
Back then, when he was ’signing in’ every ten minutes in that pitch-dark space, he had eventually grown numb to it. Perhaps the System was intentionally goading him. After 30,000 years, the rewards from the System grew increasingly abundant. For instance, rewards used to be a single Purple Gold Gourd of Marrow Cleansing Pills. But later, a single ’sign-in’ reward could be ten thousand, a hundred thousand, or even a million gourds... Ye Yun didn’t dare to think about it anymore. He had acquired far too many things; it had beco his most painful mory. In this lifeti, he never wanted to set foot in that warehouse again, to see those countless pills, cultivation techniques, treasures, and... Divine Pets. Heavens!
Seeing that the Old Ancestor intended to give her this entire gourd of Divine Marrow Cleansing Pills, Luo Li was instantly aghast. A re weakling at the eighth layer of Qi Gathering like , how could I dare accept such an invaluable item? If I were careless and its aura leaked even slightly, I’d be dead for sure!
Having been a fugitive for many years, the young Luo Li was already quite worldly-wise; how could she not understand the principle of not flaunting one’s wealth?
"Old Ancestor, this is truly too precious! It’s better if you keep it!" Luo Li said with an awkward smile, placing the Purple Gold Gourd back into Ye Yun’s hand.
"Very well," Ye Yun nodded with a smile. He too had once been the Sect Master of a great sect and had road the martial world with his sword; naturally, he understood the dark undercurrents of the Cultivation World.
Next, Luo Li carefully consud the Divine Marrow Cleansing Pill.
WHOOSH...
Her body began to change. She started to excrete black, foul-slling sweat, followed by black sludge – all impurities from within her body. This process continued for the ti it takes for an incense stick to burn.
"Oh dear, it slls terrible! Old Ancestor, I’ve embarrassed myself before you!"
After the marrow cleansing concluded, Luo Li was coated in a layer of pitch-black impurities, reeking of a foul stench. The little girl’s face flushed crimson with embarrassnt, making her wish she could find a hole to crawl into and hide.
Just then, Luo Li heard the Old Ancestor ask her an unexpected question.
"What color Robe do you like, Luo Li?"
"Yellow!" Luo Li spoke without thinking.
A bright yellow light flashed. Before her eyes, a woman’s yellow Robe suddenly materialized, hovering in mid-air. This goose-yellow Robe was exquisite and magnificent, embroidered with a Divine Dragon pattern on the back. It radiated a sacred aura so intense that Luo Li found it hard to look at directly.
The quality of this Robe is beyond my wildest imagination! What grade is this? Luo Li wondered. I can’t even tell! The most powerful Robe I’ve ever seen in my entire life was rely Heaven Level!
Ye Yun sighed softly. "This Robe is only Emperor Level. You’ll have to make do with it for now."
An Emperor Level Robe?! Hearing the Old Ancestor’s nonchalant words, Luo Li was utterly dumbfounded, her face a mask of shock. Just casually wearing an Emperor Level Robe... I feel like I’m going insane! If I wore this out, would I even live to see tomorrow?
