Everyone present found it difficult to look directly at the others with whom they used to discuss matters side by side.
"Wait a minute,"
Soone stopped the Black Robed Man.
"You have that Magical Treasure on you, right?"
"Yes, I obtained it at great cost; why should I let you use it? Besides, do you dare to trust the results of this Magical Treasure?"
"Your credibility is still worth our trust."
The Black Robed Man reluctantly took out a Compass and tested everyone present one by one. None of them had cultivated that special Incarnation Technique.
This relieved everyone.
The Black Robed Man also secretly breathed a sigh of relief and put away the Compass.
"I have nothing more to do here. I'm leaving."
As the Black Robed Man was about to leave, he took one more glance at the chair in the corner.
Everyone there knew like the back of their hand that the person had not co today; it was quite apparent that the Black Robed Man suspected he might have cultivated the special Incarnation Technique, so he did not inform that person.
The news silently spread from the upper echelons.
At the sa ti, Song Chengyue, looking like a loafer, casually approached the Langya Institute.
He found a place to wait, and after a while, Cheng Jing appeared suddenly beside him.
"Lord Song, what brings you here?"
"I'm here to bring you so free intelligence. Are you interested?"
"With Lord Song taking the trouble to co in person, it must be important, right?"
"That's right, Cui Changping is the incarnation of soone, and secondly, Jinlan Mountain has a Magical Treasure that can detect this type of incarnation."
Song Chengyue cheerfully disclosed such information offhand.
His eyes were firmly fixed on Cheng Jing's.
No matter how calm Cheng Jing tried to maintain himself or how much ntal preparation he made, he was shocked by this news.
"Dean Cheng, I've just reported to His Majesty and then ca to tell you this news. Even if you don't owe a favor, in the future, let your people from the Langya Institute treat a bit better, that shouldn't be a problem, right?"
Cheng Jing fell silent, understanding the implications of these words.
Song Chengyue was implying that this matter didn't involve His Majesty.
But I know that this Incarnation Technique must have originated from your Langya Institute.
You guys had better consider how to face what's coming next.
The subsequent questioning aid at the Langya Institute will inevitably be like a landslide and tsunami.
"Alright, the Langya Institute, and I, will rember Lord Song's kindness," Cheng Jing nodded and handed Song Chengyue a Token.
"Lord Song, if you ever wish to visit the Langya Institute to read, with this Token, you may co and go as you please."
"Then, thank you, Dean Cheng."
...
The next day, soone sent a na card to the Health Club in Almsgiving Town seeking to purchase a Compass.
On the third day, a few more buyers erged.
For several days straight, over a dozen na cards were collected.
Before even receiving the goods, which didn't include any earnest money as a greeting gift, a large amount had already been collected.
When Wu Shuangge went to collect the filth, he received a black stone condensed from polluted air as a greeting gift.
The news spread fast, and after a few days, seven Compasses were sold at the Health Club for a hefty sum, directly comparable to sweet rain.
The value of a Compass was anchored to that of the Void Escape Scroll.
Inside the Compass, highly condensed filth was hidden, with a bit of teor material added to interfere with the Cultivators' probes.
No matter who tried to reverse-engineer it, they would inevitably be affected. That seemingly insignificant effect was enough for the highly condensed filth within the Compass to obliterate the core rune.
Of course, adding a bit of teor material also served to raise the value of the Compass, proving its worth.
It was not sothing that could be made casually.
Although for Yang, the difficulty of making this generation of incarnation detection Compass was indeed not high.
The real challenge lay in sothing like what the giant had done, forcibly dissecting a person's Divine Soul without damaging the core rune of the incarnation, managing to obtain the rune intact.
Selling seven at once was the limit; any more and there would be none left.
As for the reason, the materials were rare, there were no materials left, the refining difficulty was too high, the consumption too great, and it couldn't be made for the ti being.
But the one promised to Song was naturally still delivered.
For the next year or two, whoever asked wouldn't find any, no matter the price offered.
In fact, Jinlan Mountain really did not have any of this generation left.
Yu Ziqing held a second-generation incarnation detection Compass in his hand that Yang had just improved upon.
He had no plans to launch the second generation soon; the first generation was quite good.
It couldn't determine whether it was detecting an incarnation or the original, but only that it was one of the two.
This was even better than being able to detect outright.
As long as the Compass pointed soone out, no matter who it was, they would all be assud to be an incarnation.
No matter if they were a lackey or a Ninth Tier Strong.
Because you simply can't explain it clearly, nor can you convince others.
Yu Ziqing was ready to burst the heavens open and upset the table.
As for giving Song a way out, indeed Song had survived and even started to be reused, beginning to take charge of major issues.
Those alliance mbers started to beco suspicious of each other; with only seven Compasses out there, none dared to trust anyone.
Especially since the recent news that the head disciple of a great sect, almost certainly the future Sect Leader, was suddenly rumored to have committed a grave taboo and was secretly executed by the sect.
Outsiders didn't know the situation, but those who knew about Cui Changping could guess why.
The so-called alliance could no longer co together at once.
When people t, the one who used to sit in the corner never appeared again, and everyone had an idea of what was going on.
