Sensing that Ye Kong was curious about the origin of the Heaven Defying Supremacy Pill, Luo Jun chuckled and replied with a sentence that almost made Ye Kong vomit blood.
"I don't know either."
Luo Jun wasn't keeping him in suspense. Speaking of which, how many people in the Pure Land knew about this heaven-defying power?
He only raised a question, but the answer was something that Ye Kong had to find himself!
However, Luo Jun's motive for raising this question was worth considering. If you don't even know the answer, why did you ask me, Ye Kong?
Immediately, Ye Kong asked, "Did Brother Luo hear some rumors?" Ye Kong felt that it was a little inappropriate to say this. Luo Jun had lived for so long and all his hair had turned white, yet he still called him Brother.
Luo Jun, on the other hand, didn't feel anything and nodded, "The reason why I raised these questions is not because I'm looking for trouble, nor is it because I heard that the First Sacred Emperor didn't have good intentions when he bestowed this pill to Yishui Cold Court. That's why Yishui Cold Court didn't eat it!"
So, what Luo Jun really wanted to remind him of was this sentence!
If Luo Jun wanted to say such a simple sentence, why did he have to beat around the bush? In reality, not long ago, Luo Jun received news that Ye Kong was very likely the First Sacred Emperor's disciple.
This sentence was equivalent to speaking ill of him behind his back. If Ye Kong turned hostile and said that he dared to frame his master, he was finished. Then the Pure Heart Clan would probably be exterminated. Therefore, Luo Jun first raised a big question before drawing out this sentence.
At this moment, Ye Kong already understood Luo Jun's intentions. He nodded and smiled, "I see. Brother Luo is reminding me of this. Actually, before you, someone already said this."
Luo Jun nodded and smiled, "It might be a rumor. After all, Brother Ye, you already ate the pill. Did you feel any discomfort?"
Ye Kong chuckled, "No, not at all."
Actually, Ye Kong wasn't telling the truth. The pill was eaten by the emperor beast. How would he know if there was any discomfort? However, it was obvious that the emperor beast ate it well. At least it didn't have diarrhea.
Originally, the conversation had ended here. However, someone Ye had always been a rather curious person. He suddenly asked, "Then in Brother Luo's opinion, what did the First Saint Emperor add to this pill to produce such a heaven-defying power, and what kind of secret door did he set for the Yi Shui Frost Court?"
Luo Jun laughed, "I don't know about This Old Man." After he finished speaking, he stood up and set up a simple formation in the courtyard. Only he and Ye Kong were inside. Then, he asked, "Brother Ye, do you know of a cultivation method in this world that doesn't require fusing with the Bodhi Bead?"
Luo Jun's mysterious look attracted Ye Kong's attention, and his question really surprised Ye Kong. "Is there such a way to practice without the Bodhi Bead?"
Ye Kong had always felt that the Bodhi Beads were the ones that limited a Venerable One's power. No matter how good one's cultivation aptitude was, if one did not have enough Bodhi Beads to fuse with, one would always be a little worm.
Luo Jun said, "Of course! This cultivation method is known as a sorcery. The First Saint Emperor exterminated many Venerable Clans because of this! "
When Ye Kong heard this, he thought for a while and said, "I do know some secrets about the Ninth Saint Emperor. It is said that the Ninth Saint Emperor may have cultivated this kind of evil technique. In the end, he was killed by the First Saint Emperor in the ruins."
Luo Jun had never heard of what Ye Kong said. He nodded and said, "It's said that this cultivation method that doesn't require fusing with the Bodhi Bead is completely different from the rules we know. That's why many people suspect that the power in the Heaven Defying Pill came from this!"
When Ye Kong heard what he said, he was instantly stunned.
He was shocked because the First Saint Emperor had refined the pill. That meant that the cultivation method that the First Saint Emperor had denounced as a sorcery was the First Saint Emperor himself!
According to the Holy Tower Beast King, Shen Zhenting had killed Zhan Xiang because Zhan Xiang had cultivated a monstrous cultivation method. However, if Shen Zhenting had refined the Heaven Defying Pill, that meant that Shen Zhenting himself had cultivated a monstrous cultivation method …
Shen Zhenting was an out-and-out hypocrite. He used a heaven-defying cultivation method himself, but he didn't allow others to cultivate it!
Based on what the Holy Tower Beast King had told him, Shen Zhenting's purpose was to use the Bodhi Bead to control the Venerable Ones in this world! They would have to beg him for the Bodhi Bead!
"I'm afraid that's the case." Ye Kong thought to himself, "Thank goodness Shen Zhenting didn't accept me as a disciple. I don't want to be your disciple or grand-disciple!"
Shen Zhenting cultivated a heaven-defying cultivation method for the sake of becoming stronger. He was afraid that others would become stronger, so he forbade others from cultivating such a method! Then, he would be able to use the Bodhi Bead to control the entire Pure Land!
However, he didn't tell Luo Jun about the details.
It wasn't a good thing to know!
"Thank you for the reminder, Brother Luo. I'll keep this in mind." Ye Kong nodded.
Luo Jun was relieved. He wasn't risking his life to be a good guy. It was just that he had offended Ye Kong in the past, so he had to use this method to please Ye Kong.
A moment later, he opened the formation, and the two of them returned to the small courtyard.
At that moment, Huang Zhongmei walked over. "Bian Chenggui just received news that he found a fragment of the Blood Coagulation Armor."
Ye Kong was pleasantly surprised. The ruins had changed a lot this time. The Vacuum Fragment was gone, and the Death Fragment had exploded again. He believed that many treasures had been found, and the fragment of the Blood Coagulation Armor was likely to appear again.
His guess was right.
Huang Zhongmei said, "The seller is a senior from the Fifth Venerable State. We've talked to him, and he doesn't want to negotiate the price in advance. We have to decide at the auction!"
In fact, the auction industry was also very shady, especially this kind of black market auction. If a Venerable One with mediocre cultivation brought a treasure that caught the eye of a senior member of the auction house, someone would negotiate the price with the Venerable One in advance! The Venerable One wouldn't be allowed to participate in the auction.
This was still a relatively gentle method. If it was a violent method, it would be to directly kill him somewhere in the black market! Then, the treasures left in the auction house would naturally fall into the hands of the main clan.
But it was different this time. According to Huang Zhongmei, it was a senior from the Fifth Venerable State. She believed that the Pure Heart Clan couldn't afford to offend him!
Ye Kong, on the other hand, didn't think of killing and robbing. He nodded and said, "It's fine. I'll just attend the auction later. He just wants to earn more money, and I don't lack money!"
Hearing this, Luo Jun and Huang Zhongmei laughed. With Ye Kong's current wealth of over ten thousand Reincarnation grade treasures, a fragment of the Blood Coagulation Armor was nothing to him.
Huang Zhongmei said, "Then Brother Ye, you must attend the auction tomorrow night."
Just as they were discussing, Bian Haizheng came to report that there was someone outside who wanted to see him. He claimed to be Yu Xuanji from the Yu Clan. Ye Kong heard it was a familiar face. He was overjoyed and said, "Quick, invite him in!"
