In order to increase his persuasiveness and make Wang Baole ignore the fact that he didn't know much about the paper figurine, Shan Lingzi simply gave an example.
"Master, I didn't dare to reveal that I had a replica of the Galaxy Bow back then. Otherwise, with the value of this bow, if it could be sold safely, it wouldn't be a problem to buy a thousand civilizations. If you could even contact a Star Domain mighty figure, you could exchange it for a condition. However, you have to have a certain level of qualifications. Otherwise, you would be easily swallowed alive …" As Shan Lingzi spoke, he felt a little bitter in his heart. He had lost because of this qualification.
Although he was a Planet realm, he didn't have much of a background in the Never-Ending Clan. Therefore, although he had a huge treasure, every step was difficult and he didn't dare to reveal it at all. As for handing it over, he didn't dare to do so because he couldn't withstand investigation. There was a high chance that he wouldn't be able to keep the other two items.
"A condition from a Star Domain mighty figure?" Wang Baole had a strange expression. Previously, when the other party said that he could exchange it for a thousand civilizations, he still felt that the value was very high. However, when he heard the second half of the sentence, he suddenly felt that it didn't seem that valuable anymore.
After all, Senior Brother was at least a Star Domain mighty figure. Wang Baole felt that not to mention one condition, even if it was a thousand or eight hundred conditions … it didn't seem very difficult.
If Shan Lingzi knew about his thoughts, he would probably spit out a mouthful of soul blood at this moment. The gap between people was really bigger than the gap between heaven and earth.
"Alright, let's talk about that bottle." Wang Baole waved his hand and asked about that mysterious bottle. In fact, Shan Lingzi's judgment of the three items in the storage ring was not correct. Wang Baole valued neither the paper figurine nor the Galaxy Bow the most.
The former was just strange and was related to the Graveyard of Stars that he cared about, so he paid attention to it. As for the latter … Wang Baole felt that he didn't need it now, so it was enough to know its value.
What he really valued was that small bottle. His intuition told him that the mystery of this bottle probably far exceeded that of the paper figurine.
In reality, this was indeed the case, because … Shan Lingzi, who had been speaking smoothly from the start, hesitated for a moment at this moment. This was not intentional, but was due to his instincts. However, when he saw the hostility in Wang Baole's eyes, he trembled for a moment and immediately told him everything he knew, not daring to hide anything.
"Master … I don't know the origin of this small bottle either. I couldn't find any clues about this item in any ancient records. I only know that this bottle seems to have existed for a very, very long time. As for its use … according to my many years of research, I finally discovered something. This item seems to be a … wishing bottle!" Shan Lingzi said carefully, as if he was afraid that he didn't explain in enough detail, so he added on.
"I can't open this bottle, and the handwriting on the paper inside is blurred. I can't see what's written on it …"
"Can't see clearly?" Wang Baole narrowed his eyes and carefully glanced at Shan Lingzi. He didn't believe that Shan Lingzi would lie to him on this point, but he remembered that he had seen the words "rich" in it.
This made Wang Baole surprised in his heart, but he didn't reveal any of it on his face.
"I can't see the handwriting clearly, but I can be sure that this is a wishing bottle. It's just that sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't … But once it comes true, at the same time that it fulfills the wishes of the person making the wish, there will be unimaginable side effects that will descend …" At this point, bitterness and fear appeared in Shan Lingzi's eyes, as if some terrifying side effects had happened to him before.
"Side effects?" Wang Baole raised his eyebrows.
"You've made a wish before, right? Tell me about the side effects!"
Shan Lingzi instantly fell silent. After a while, as if he had lost all his strength, he lowered his head and spoke softly.
"Master, in the past … I was a female cultivator."
"Female cultivator? What's that? What are you talking about … uh … "When Wang Baole heard Shan Lingzi's words, he didn't quite understand. However, halfway through his words, his eyes suddenly widened, and he stared blankly at Shan Lingzi's spirit. His eyes were filled with confusion as he exclaimed involuntarily.
"Female? You were a female in the past? "
Shan Lingzi smiled bitterly as he looked at Wang Baole and nodded his head heavily.
"Are you kidding me? Huh? Your spirit is all male … "Wang Baole felt that his mind was a little messy. His first reaction was that this Shan Lingzi was too bold to actually dare to trick him. Hence, he glared, and a murderous aura suddenly rose.
This scared Shan Lingzi so much that he trembled and hurriedly explained.
"Master, listen to me. Although I was a female cultivator in the past, men are superior to women in the Never-Ending Clan, so I have always concealed my gender. After obtaining this wishing bottle, I studied it for many years, and the reason why I successfully broke through to become a Planet realm back then was because I made a successful wish at the crucial moment.
"However, the price was that I changed from a female cultivator to a male cultivator. Later on, perhaps I wished to change back, but as I made other wishes, I became a male cultivator again … Other than that, this wishing bottle has all sorts of strange side effects … I remember that once, after I finally made a successful wish again, I actually became a tree … This lasted for three years." Shan Lingzi's expression was bitter. He usually couldn't say these words to others, but at this moment, in front of Wang Baole, he finally vented them out. Every word was sorrowful.
Wang Baole's eyes widened as he listened to the other party's words. He was also shocked and even more aghast, but he still couldn't help but be tempted … Honestly, if this wishing bottle was really as the other party said, it was too heaven-defying.
"Even one's cultivation can be broken through by making a wish … What kind of treasure is this?" Wang Baole's heart palpitated, and he was also a little hesitant about the side effects that Shan Lingzi mentioned. However, when he thought that if his cultivation could be greatly improved, then even if he became a female for a few years, it wasn't unacceptable.
"Anyway, this Shan Lingzi also said that later on, didn't I change back … As long as it's not fixed for eternity, it's fine." The more Wang Baole thought about it, the more his heart itched. He felt that if he really became a female, then at most, he would just go into seclusion for a few years and keep making wishes to change back.
Thinking of this, Wang Baole's eyes revealed a decisive look, and he directly took out the storage ring. After trying to infuse his Divine Perception into it, he realized that although the paper doll opened its eyes and revealed a dark glow, it didn't stop him. Thus, Wang Baole quickly took out the small bottle. When he held it in his hand, Wang Baole couldn't help but be a little nervous. However, after fiercely clenching his teeth, he immediately made a wish loudly.
"I want to become the strongest person in the Never-Ending Dao Domain!"
The small bottle didn't have any reaction. Even Shan Lingzi, who was at the side, felt his face twitch. However, after sensing Wang Baole's unfriendly gaze sweeping towards him, Shan Lingzi sighed in his heart and spoke hurriedly.
"Master … I've made this wish before, but it's useless … This wishing bottle sometimes works, sometimes it doesn't …"
Wang Baole had a suspicious look on his face. After thinking for a while, he snorted coldly and made a wish loudly again.
"I want to become a Celestial Domain-Grade big shot!"
There was still no reaction from the bottle.
"I want to become a Star-Grade powerhouse!" Wang Baole didn't believe in heresy and roared. However … the bottle didn't change at all. This made Wang Baole furious, and he glared fiercely at Shan Lingzi.
"Shan Lingzi, you actually dared to lie to me?!" After saying that, Wang Baole raised his left hand and grabbed Shan Lingzi immediately. His expression was filled with anger and embarrassment, and the murderous intent in his eyes was so intense that Shan Lingzi shrieked in fright.
"Master, Master, listen to me. This can't be blamed on me. This bottle really works sometimes, and sometimes, it doesn't work. It can't be controlled …" Shan Lingzi was about to cry. He had really spoken the entire truth without hiding anything. He was terrified by Wang Baole's temperamental mood swings. In addition, he also felt resentment. It was really … He felt that Wang Baole's wish was obviously unreliable. If it had really succeeded, he would have become the strongest person in the Never-Ending Dao Domain by now. He wouldn't have been captured alive, and his fate was uncertain.
Seeing Shan Lingzi's expression, Wang Baole frowned, and his eyes were still filled with suspicion. After thinking for a while, he held the small bottle and made another wish.
"I want to become a Planet-Grade powerhouse!"
This was already Wang Baole's bottom line. Previously, Shan Lingzi had said that breaking through the Spirit Immortal realm and stepping into the Planet-Grade was through making a wish through this small bottle. Therefore, Wang Baole felt that perhaps he had indeed been too greedy previously. In that case, he would make this small wish now. However … after he finished speaking, the small bottle was exactly the same as before, and there were no changes at all. This made Wang Baole's expression turn extremely gloomy.
