No matter what Yue Ling had brought forth, none dared to lay a finger on it. The fury of a king-level expert would make them understand the aning of despair. They weren’t in the Demon Sea Base; here, even if they were killed by a king-level expert, no punishnt would be levied upon that expert. Even if their families were to seek vengeance for them later, they wouldn't live to see that day. Additionally, they dared not inform the senior mbers of their families. To alert the family elders without understanding the full situation would an they were tired of living.
Other grandmasters didn't dare to touch the unknown object, but Yunhe Wang showed so interest. His strength was much greater than that of the Yue family's elder, and he even harbored a certain hope of killing Lord Yue Ling on his own. Lord Yue Ling, after all, had no special talents and was rely average among king-level experts.
Of course, conflict wouldn't easily break out among king-level experts unless the interests at stake had reached a certain level. Besides, Yunhe Wang had no enmity with Yue Ling, and naturally wouldn't pick a fight needlessly. That didn't an, however, that he wasn't curious!
So, Yunhe Wang activated his spatial perception. He tried to investigate the situation by peering through layers of space, but obviously failed. King-level experts possessed the ans to block spatial perception. If he tried to investigate inconspicuously, it would be nearly impossible.
"My spatial talents are rely basic. If they were at a mid level, my ability to perceive space would be several tis stronger, and blocking would beco difficult for Yue Ling," Yunhe Wang lanted.
Inside the Yue family's Windriding Vessel, Lord Yue Ling looked anxiously at Yue Ling.
"You are Yue Ling, aren't you?" asked the Yue family's ancestor.
"Yes, Ancestor!" Yue Ling was sowhat nervous.
She had only t the ancestor a few tis, and those occasions were during important family events. She had rely stood among the crowd of the Yue family. This was her first ti having a face-to-face conversation with him. She was rely a great martial warrior, and standing in front of a king-level expert, even an average grandmaster would be nervous.
"Do you have the Fire Spirit Talent Herb?" Yue Ling asked urgently.
"Yes!" Yue Ling took out a large jade box from her storage bag. She opened it to reveal a smaller jade box within, and finally revealed the Fire Spirit Talent Herb that was carefully protected inside.
The herb was blood-red in color with faint flas emanating from it. It had three leaves, each imprinted with a fla pattern. This indicated that the Fire Spirit Talent Herb was of the three-spirit level.
"Indeed, this is a three-spirit level Fire Spirit Talent Herb. It will be extrely useful to !" Yue Ling was visibly excited. His eyes softened as he looked at Yue Ling. "Young Yue Ling, this herb is invaluable and cannot be asured in gold. What reward would you like?"
"Elder, I want an opportunity. After I reach the grandmaster's limit, I want to comprehend the Enlightennt Stele once," Yue Ling pleaded.
"What? Comprehend the Enlightennt Stele?!!!" Yue Ben, who was at the side, was completely stunned, his pupils contracting.
He himself was not eligible to comprehend the Enlightennt Stele. The stele was the foundation of the family, acquired from a mysterious place. Although Yue Ling did not possess extraordinary cultivation talent—only top-tier cultivation talent—he had been able to break through the bottleneck and advance to beco a king-level expert solely because of the Enlightennt Stele.
However, the effects of the Enlightennt Stele were not omnipotent. Each ti soone gained insight from it, so of its mysterious aura would dissipate. By this point, the Yue family's Enlightennt Stele could no longer be consulted many more tis.
Consequently, under unavoidable circumstances, the Enlightennt Stele couldn't be activated. There were many masters within the Yue family, but none were deed worthy of comprehending the stele.
"This is...”
Lord Yue Ling hesitated.
The value of the Fire Spirit Talent Herb was indeed high and would greatly enhance his abilities. However, its benefits were limited to him alone. If he agreed to Yue Ling's request to activate the Enlightennt Stele, others in the clan would undoubtedly be dissatisfied.
"Ancestor, I also have six Heavenly Soul Flowers here, enough to produce six top-tier talents in our Yue family!"
Yue Ling took out the Heavenly Soul Flowers and said.
"Six Heavenly Soul Flowers? You have six of them?"
Yue Ling was shocked.
Although the Heavenly Soul Flowers were not as valuable as the Fire Spirit Talent Herb, they were still rare treasures. The Yue family had only one such flower before and had treasured it greatly, keeping it in the family's vault. Without a significant contribution, the flower wouldn't be granted to anyone. After all, once it was given away, there would be none left, leaving the Yue family quite helpless.
Now, with six additional flowers, the strength of the Yue family would be greatly augnted. So clan mbers, for example, had special talents that were extrely powerful, even possessing advanced offensive skills. However, they were held back by poor cultivation aptitudes, struggling to even beco elite warriors. These battle talents could not be fully utilized.
But with the Heavenly Soul Flowers, their cultivation aptitudes would rise to the top tier, allowing them to reach the limit of the master level, far surpassing average master-level fighters. In a world without king-level talents, the strength of major families relied on these master-level warriors.
So, the significance of these six Heavenly Soul Flowers was imnse.
"Ancestor, with these six Heavenly Soul Flowers, I believe many of our high-ranking mbers will agree to activate the Enlightennt Stele," Yue Ling said.
"Alright, I agree!" Lord Yue Ling nodded.
If it had been just one Fire Spirit Talent Herb, he might have faced opposition for selfishly agreeing to Yue Ling's request. But with six Heavenly Soul Flowers, objections from the family would undoubtedly be minimal.
He could completely agree to Yue Ling's request.
"Thank you, Ancestor!"
Yue Ling was extrely excited.
Her long-cherished wish had finally been fulfilled.
You see, her cultivation aptitude was rely top-tier, and even that was achieved by risking great danger and sacrificing several core subordinates to retrieve a treasure from the Lake of Death. This treasure had elevated her cultivation aptitude to the top tier.
After reaching top-tier cultivation, further improvent beca very difficult.
Perhaps being top-tier was her lifeti limit.
And the success rate for top-tier cultivators to advance to king-level was less than ten percent. Without special opportunities, she would never reach king-level in her lifeti.
Was she content to remain at the master level for the rest of her life, forever unable to reach king-level?
No, she wasn't.
But the family's Enlightennt Stele offered a glimr of hope, reportedly increasing the odds by twenty percent.
Now, she had roughly a 28% chance of advancing to king-level.
Although the success rate was still not high, at least there was hope. If she acquired other treasures in her future cultivation that could add another ten or twenty percent to her chances, wouldn't she stand a chance of reaching king-level?
Therefore, she did not hesitate to contribute the Fire Spirit Talent Herb and the six Heavenly Soul Flowers.
Now, she had succeeded!
Unknowingly, a tear trickled down from her eyes—tears of overwhelming emotion.
