Chapter 221: Chapter 36 The Art of Yansheng_2
Within this, to prove his methods and theory, he also analyzed the components of elixirs in a comprehensive and easy-to-understand manner, as well as the kinds of reactions that would occur when taking multiple elixirs together.
It has to be said, his theory was indeed reasonable and well-founded, earning the hearts of many Rogue Cultivators.
After all, due to their circumstances, most Rogue Cultivators hope to achieve better effects with cheaper elixirs.
And those elixirs that carry higher levels of toxicity are naturally much cheaper than ordinary ones.
Master Yuji providing them a theoretical basis and confidence, naturally, lead to the thrill among the Rogue Cultivators.
In the end, the move that made Wang Ba applaud came.
Sitting high on the platform, Master Yuji expressed a look of compassion and sighed:
“I too was once in your position, and I won’t hide it from you all, when I was of your Cultivation Base, I constantly worried if taking these elixirs would affect my future of becoming an Immortal Master of Nascent SouL.hehe, making long-term plans is not wrong, but us Rogue Cultivators have poor qualifications to start with, we live from hand to mouth, abandoned by the Sects, if we can’t even take care of our present situation, how can we plan for the distant future?”
“Moreover currently, in our Yan State, no, should I say, it’s likely that the nearby several states are all on the verge of a big change!”
Master Yuji’s gaze was intense.
“Have you heard? The Wei State, which is separated from us by Qiao State and Xu State, was recently destroyed by a major power!”
On hearing this news, the cultivators below were visibly startled, and a stir ran through the crowd.
“What? Such a thing happened?”
“How come I never heard of this? Wei State, that’s a state that’s no less than our Yan State!”
“Who did it? Could it be the Chu Dynasty?”
Changes in the Cultivation World are constant, the destruction of Sects is common, but the destruction of a state is something extremely rare.
Especially after the northernmost Yan, westernmost Jin, southernmost Chu, middlemost Qi, and southeasternmost Wu five dynasties have stabilized their situations. While slaughtering entire cities is not uncommon for cultivators, there have been almost no incidents of a state being destroyed.
Despite the Wei State being separated from Yan State by two other states, there have been occasional trades with Wei State cultivators, thus Yan State is not entirely unfamiliar with Wei State.
It is precisely because of this, these cultivators are more shocked.
And yet, Master Yuji regretfully said:
“You don’t know? It’s normal that you don’t know, after all, your Cultivation Base is not high enough yet, you are not able to look at the entirety of the Cultivation World from here in Yan State. From what I know, this power is called the Kingdom of Immortals. It has long since replaced the Wu Dynasty, the former hegemon of southeastern, even the Chu Dynasty has suffered losses in confrontations with it.”
“Now its momentum is increasingly fierce, maybe within a hundred years, this Kingdom of Immortalswill move westwards, annexing Qiao State, Xu State, even our Yan State!”
“By that time, the Sects will be overthrown, as us Rogue Cultivators who are barely holding on will probably not be able to stay in Yan State, becoming homeless, wandering through all states, despised by everyone…”
As soon as Master Yuji’s words fell, the entire courtyard fell silent.
Apart from a small number of people, most of them were shocked by the future described by Master Yuji.
A hundred years may seem like a long time, but you need to realize, these are all Foundation Establishment Competitors and according to their lifespan, a lot of people present might even live to see that day.
Even Wang Ba was shocked.
He remembered when he searched Ji Lin’s soul, the Kingdom of Immortals hadn’t expanded to Wei State…no, it was still two to three states away from Wei State.
In less than ten years, their progress has been so fast, this made Wang Ba realize the terror of the Incense Fire Dao for the first time!
And a sense of crisis also rose in his heart.
With the pace of Kingdom of Immortals’ expansion, it wouldn’t even take a hundred years, probably ten at most, to arrive right under the noses of the Yan State cultivators.
And Yan State, according to Zhao Feng, was separated from Chen State by only one Song State!
With this, in at most twenty years, Incense Fire Dao would pervade and govern the greater half of Fenglin Continent!
“When that time conies… Even in the vastness of Fenglin Continent, it seems there will be no place for me to take shelter!”
Wang Ba looked distressed.
Finally, Master Yuji’s cunning plan was revealed as he displayed an appearance of sadness and compassion:
“I know that it’s not easy for us Rogue Cultivators, that’s why I specifically got a lot of effective elixirs from a friend who is an Alchemist.”
“I’ll state upfront, these elixirs are heavily toxic, so take caution while buying.”
“If anyone is interested, you can go find my disciple…”
Immediately some of the already panicked cultivators couldn’t help but go pay in Spirit Stones.
And Wang Ba also understood the other party’s crafty scheme.
Elixirs with heavy toxicity, normal cultivators simply wouldn’t buy them, and Alchemists would generally dispose of them as waste pills.
But after Master Yuji’s eloquent speech and amplification of their worries, he successfully got these Rogue Cultivators into his scheme.
Quietly shaking his head, Wang Ba discreetly left.
Not only him, there were also others who saw the truth or those sensitive to the concept of Spirit Stones, who also quietly left the courtyard.
Most of these people had perceived the inferior motives but no one dared to expose them.
Who would have the courage to do so in front of an actual Golden Core Master?
As Master Yuji’s lecture ended.
The market gradually became lively once again.
Wang Ba also quickly returned to his stall and resumed his business.
However, after experiencing Master Yuji’s harvesting move, Wang Ba felt that some cultivators had become less willing to spend their Spirit Stones.
Even though some late-stage Foundation Establishment Competitors visited Wang Ba’s stall and showed interest, they could only leave in disappointment after asking about the price.
