Sunset Lake, within the palace!
Zhongli Mingjing was filled with pride as excitement gradually replaced his conflicted expression. He directly extended his hand and grabbed the jade slip that hovered before him, intending to read the secret technique of the Thousand Li Thread.
However, when he caught sight of Yu Haoran's mocking smile from the corner of his eye, a chill immediately surged through his heart.
Yu Haoran clearly knew that the secret technique of the Thousand Li Thread that Sovereign Zhan Tai had created could break through the Nine Palaces Nine Bends Mystic Formation that he had personally set up and contact the Sovereign ancestors in the endless void. However, he had still taken it out without any hesitation.
If he said that he did not have any defensive measures, no one would believe him even if he told the heavens.
Moreover, Zhongli Mingjing suspected that this was Yu Haoran's scheme to test him. He was testing whether he had truly let go of his hatred and whether he would go back on his vow.
When he thought up to there, Zhongli Mingjing immediately withdrew his intent from reading the jade slip. Afterwards, he put on a solemn expression and handed the jade slip to Zhongli Qingyang.
"File it away in the secret vault!"
It was just as Zhongli Mingjing had guessed and suspected. How could Yu Haoran not have any defensive measures when he had given away the secret technique of the Thousand Li Thread that could pose a threat to him?
Firstly, he had modified the jade slip with the secret technique of the Thousand Li Thread into a single-use jade slip. As long as Zhongli Mingjing read the secret technique in the jade slip on the spot, the jade slip would immediately self-destruct. Zhongli Mingjing would not have the opportunity to pass it on to another clansman in a short period of time.
Secondly, the secret technique of the Thousand Li Thread that he had given to the Zhongli clan had been researched by him and Thaling, and had undergone some minor modifications. As long as a clansman of the Zhongli clan used the secret technique to contact the Sovereign ancestors in the endless void, he could immediately steal the contents of the communication or stop the process of communication at any time.
In the end, he had indeed used the secret technique of the Thousand Li Thread to test the depths of Zhongli Mingjing's hatred for him. He would use this to decide his attitude after the engagement was concluded.
Fortunately, Zhongli Mingjing had pulled back from the precipice in time and made a wise choice, causing Yu Haoran to nod with satisfaction. After that, he stretched out his hand to pick up the second jade slip on the table, and then he utilized his Origin Energy to wrap it up before delivering it to Zhongli Mingjing.
"The Soul Breaking Sword Technique is a Peak Divine Rank Sword Technique. It was created by Heavenly Sword Xiao Yuhun, who obtained the Sword Dao's destiny during the Middle Ages. It can raise one's strength by one to two small realms."
In terms of practicality, the Soul Severing Sword Technique was far more valuable than the Thousand Li Pulling Technique. However, the Zhongli Family did not lack top-tier sword techniques. On the contrary, they needed the supplementary Thousand Li Pulling Technique more.
As a result, Zhongli Mingjing only symbolically thanked Yu Haoran for the Soul Severing Sword Technique before getting Zhongli Qingyang to file it away in the treasury instead of the secret vault.
"The Nine Tunes Yellow River God Burying Formation, a Peak Divine Level Formation created by the Illusionary Primeval Spiritual Being, the number one Formation Master in the Middle Ages. It can trap and kill a Divine Spirit Realm expert at the Peak Ninth Grade Martial God Realm," Yu Haoran continued to introduce the third jade slip to Zhongli Mingjing using his Yuan Power.
Just like how he treated the Soul Severing Sword Technique, Zhongli Mingjing instructed Zhongli Qingyang to file it away in the treasury instead of the secret vault.
Whether it was the Soul Severing Sword Technique or the Nine Bends Yellow River God Burying Formation, they were both top-tier treasures that countless organisations in the Profound Sky Continent would madly fight over.
However, Zhongli Mingjing's overly calm reaction and ordinary handling of the matter made Yu Haoran immediately realise that the Zhongli Family's collection of top-tier martial techniques and formations had probably far exceeded his imagination.
This made him envious and jealous. At the same time, the thought of peeking into the Zhongli Family's secret vault flashed through his mind.
However, when he thought of the marriage between Wu Zhengguo and Zhongli Shuiqin, he could only helplessly give up on the thought in the end. He then extended his hand and picked up a pill bottle.
"Three Tier Nine Nirvana Pills. They can allow experts at Emperor Wu's level to undergo a complete transformation and increase their potential and hope of becoming a Martial God." Yu Haoran adjusted his emotions after sending the pill bottle to Zhongli Mingjing using his Origin Energy. He continued to introduce the pills with a gentle smile on his face.
To Zhongli Mingjing who was already a peak ninth level Martial God, the Tier Nine Nirvana Pills were useless. However, to Zhongli Qingyang and the seven old men in luxurious robes who were at Emperor Wu's level, the Nirvana Pills were the hope of improving their cultivation and strength.
Therefore, when Zhongli Qingyang and the others saw the pill bottle that Zhongli Mingjing accepted, their eyes immediately filled with desire.
Zhongli Mingjing pondered for a moment before instructing when he sensed the desire in Zhongli Qingyang and the others' eyes.
"Put them in the treasury!"
"Thank you, Ancestor Mingjing," Zhongli Qingyang hurriedly stood up and expressed his gratitude when he heard Zhongli Mingjing's instructions.
According to the rules of the Zhongli clan, only the ancestors at the Martial God level had the right to decide and distribute the treasures in the treasury.
As the patriarch of the Zhongli clan, although he could not interfere with the treasures in the treasury, he had full authority to decide the final ownership of all the treasures in the treasury.
Zhongli Mingjing had put the three second-tier, ninth-grade Nirvana Pills into the treasury, which was equivalent to giving him the right to dispose of the Nirvana Pills. How could Zhongli Qingyang, who had always wanted to break through to the Martial God Realm, not feel grateful?
"Qingyang, the Tier Nine Nirvana Pills are precious gifts from Pill God Yu. If you want to express your gratitude, you should thank Pill God Yu first."
Zhongli Mingjing became even more fearful of Yu Haoran after experiencing the Thousand-mile String Manipulation, so he became even more cautious in his actions.
Therefore, when Zhongli Qingyang thanked Yu Haoran for the Tier Nine Nirvana Pills, Zhongli Mingjing hurriedly gave him a reminder. He was afraid that he would upset Yu Haoran.
Zhongli Qingyang had always resisted and resented the fact that he had temporarily given up his hatred and had no choice but to agree to the marriage between Wu Zhengjun and Zhongli Shuiqin.
At this moment, the fact that he could face Yu Haoran calmly was already his bottom line for the time being. It was impossible for him to thank Yu Haoran in front of everyone.
Therefore, when Zhongli Mingjing gave him a reminder, Zhongli Qingming sneered and sat down on the wide chair again. He then poured out the Nirvana Pills and examined them carefully. He had no intention of thanking Lin Fan at all.
Yu Haoran did not care about this at all. He took out the second pill bottle and wrapped it with Yuan Qi before sending it to Zhongli Mingjing. Then, he introduced it to Zhongli Mingjing.
"This is a Tier One Soul Accumulation Pill. It can help a Half-Tribulation Sovereign to reconstruct a physical body and realize the hope of a second rebirth."
