"The Nine Revolutions Azure Tree grows an inch a year. After a million years, its trunk will be as tall as a mountain. After a billion years, its crown will be as lush as the stars. Its fruit can extend one's lifespan by tens of thousands of years. It's definitely a spirit herb that can extend one's lifespan by chance. Punk, you actually managed to get your hands on such a thing."
Old Snake was indeed a knowledgeable person. He recognized the fruit's origins at a glance.
"That old child was the one who used it to refine medicine. If I had not intercepted it, the fruit would have ended up in his stomach."
Upon hearing Yi Yun's words, Old Snake laughed out loud. "That lass Chenxue sure has good taste. She was right about you. This fruit is good stuff!"
Old Snake cherished his life. He had not lived enough despite living for so long. He yearned for any medicine that could extend his lifespan, especially a divine medicine at the level of the Nine Revolutions Azure Fruit. Not only could it extend his lifespan, it could even replenish his vitality, allowing him to slightly recuperate the injuries he had previously suffered.
Old Snake played with the Nine Revolutions Azure Fruit a few times before throwing it into his mouth. The fist-sized Nine Revolutions Azure Fruit was swallowed whole by Old Snake.
Yi Yun was somewhat dumbfounded. "You ate it just like that? You aren't going to refine it into pills? "
"Eat? How could I bear to eat it just like that? " Old Snake swallowed the fruit with great difficulty as he said in a muffled voice, "I first swallowed the entire fruit into my dantian and used its vital essence to slowly nourish my dantian's injuries. I'll slowly refine it in the future."
As Old Snake spoke, he noticed that Yi Yun was still looking at him with an odd expression. "Punk, what are you looking at!?"
"I say … you swallowed such a huge fruit in one mouthful. Don't tell me you're really a snake …"
Yi Yun was originally teasing Old Snake in a joking manner, but he never expected Old Snake to roll his eyes at him. He said leisurely, "I have some Soaring Serpent bloodline in me, but it's not pure. Snake Girl is the same. Many years ago, I saw her lonely and destitute. She shared the same origins as me, so I took her in as a disciple. However, the heritage of my ancestor has long been lost. All the cultivation techniques I've cultivated in my entire life have nothing to do with it. My Combat Sacred Body is not suitable for women to cultivate in, so I did not impart it to Snake Girl."
Old Snake said nonchalantly with a Yuan Qi voice transmission.
Yi Yun was taken aback when he heard that. This was the first time he was hearing Old Snake mention such matters. So Old Snake was really related to snakes.
The Five Elemental Laws each had a corresponding Divine Beast. The Azure Dragon was of the Wood attribute, the Vermilion Bird was of the Fire attribute, the White Tiger was of the Metal attribute, the Black Tortoise was of the Water attribute, and the Earth attribute was the Flying Serpent.
The Soaring Serpent had the bloodline of the Dragon Emperor. Only then did Yi Yun understand why Snake Girl's blood could activate the Ascending Dragon Cauldron. It was no coincidence.
"No wonder Senior wants to obtain the Dragon Emperor Technique …"
Yi Yun was enlightened. The heritage of Old Snake's ancestor had been lost. If he wanted to cultivate in supreme martial arts, he naturally wanted the Dragon Emperor Technique that was compatible with his bloodline. It was probably a part of his desire to restore his ancestral lineage.
"That's right. My bloodline gives me a special feeling for the Ascending Dragon Cauldron. However, I have attempted it before. My blood is unable to stimulate the dragon soul in the Ascending Dragon Cauldron."
Old Snake shook his head. He was human after all. The difference between his bloodline and that of the Dragon Emperor was just too great.
"What are you going to do with these people?"
Old Snake suddenly said. The Myriad God Ridge disciples immediately turned nervous when they heard that.
The old man in front of them was unfathomable. Against Old Snake, they felt immense pressure.
A cold glint flashed in the corner of Yi Yun's eyes as he looked at them.
He did not have a good impression of the Myriad God Ridge. A crooked stick would have a crooked shadow. There were not many good people in the Myriad God Ridge sect. Many of the Myriad God Ridge disciples in front of him had a death wish!
However, Yi Yun had no intention of killing them. There were many experts among them. If they were to risk their lives, it would be very troublesome.
Yi Yun said, "I do not have the habit of letting my enemies off. If I let you off today, you might exact revenge on me tomorrow."
When the crowd heard Yi Yun's words, their hearts sank. It was not that they had never thought of risking their lives, but they did not know that Old Snake was injured. From their point of view, Old Snake was an unfathomable existence that was unmatched. Together with Yi Yun, his strength was not to be underestimated. He had the ability to slay Cang Wu and had refined the indestructible Ascending Dragon Cauldron. He could attack or retreat at will. No matter how they looked at it, they had no chance of victory.
"I want all of you to sign a contract to submit to us. You are not to betray us for ten thousand years! After ten thousand years, you will be free to leave or stay! "
This was the best solution Yi Yun could think of. Ten thousand years to give them hope was something most people could accept.
Old Snake said, "That's not a bad idea. However, I just want them to submit to you. I can't be bothered to take in these slaves."
"Alright."
Yi Yun nodded. In fact, it was equivalent to having the entire Myriad God Ridge under Yi Yun's control. With such a large sect, he could do many things for him, such as gathering information or searching for herbs.
Upon hearing Yi Yun raise the condition, the Myriad God Ridge disciples fell silent.
Many of them gaped but could not say a word. They could ignore the fact that they had to submit to Old Snake, but how could they feel comfortable submitting to a junior like Yi Yun?
However, if they did not submit, they would probably lose their lives. And if they submitted, it would only be ten thousand years. All they needed to do was endure that period of time. There was still a long road ahead of them.
Furthermore, on careful thought, with Yi Yun's talent, it would not take long for him to become a Divine Lord. Furthermore, it would be difficult for him to find a match among Divine Lords. In that case, it would not be too bad for them.
"I submit …"
An Elder spoke up.
With someone taking the lead, more people followed. The juniors agreed faster. Although it was humiliating to sign a contract, it was already pretty good that they could retain their autonomy.
At that moment, the ones who suffered the most were the Song and Zhang families.
These two family clans had previously targeted Yi Yun in various ways. Now that Yi Yun was about to become the true owner of the Myriad God Ridge, they felt bitter. How were they to continue living in the future?
It was truly ironic just thinking about it. A few days ago, Feng Yunyang had only become the successor to the sect master, but he had already garnered the envy of countless people.
And now, Yi Yun was the true owner of the Myriad God Ridge. It was equivalent to Myriad God Patriarch's position from back then. He controlled their fates!
Back then, Myriad God Patriarch had wanted to use Yi Yun to refine pills. But now, everything Myriad God Patriarch had prepared had gone to Yi Yun. Even the sect had become Yi Yun's. It was unknown how Myriad God Patriarch would feel before he died.
One after another, nearly everyone chose to submit. Yi Yun planted a soul mark in their soul seas.
This kind of soul mark was the most gentle kind. It was not like Myriad God Patriarch's, where once the master died, the slave would die as well.
At that moment, Yi Yun walked in front of Song Zhanchen and Zhang Tianxing. Facing Yi Yun, the two shuddered in fear. Only when they saw the soul mark Yi Yun condensed did the corners of their mouths twitch.
They realized that the soul mark Yi Yun condensed was different. When their perception interfaced with the soul mark, they could clearly sense the contents of the contract. Not only did they have to submit to Yi Yun, their consciousness was also under Yi Yun's control. Even their lives were under Yi Yun's control. Furthermore, the time they had to do it was ten times longer than others. It was a hundred thousand years!
This was already a true slave mark. The only difference was that the time was not permanent.
Yi Yun looked coldly at Song Zhanchen and Zhang Tianxing. He could not be bothered to ask their choice. He did not have the patience to do so. If they did not submit, he would kill them.
The corners of Song Zhanchen's and Zhang Tianxing's mouths twitched. It was as though their spines had been pulled out. If they were alone, they could still put up a tough front. However, they knew that if they did not submit, their Zhang family and Song family could be wiped from the Myriad God Ridge by Yi Yun.
They could not watch their family clans, which had been passed down in the Myriad God Ridge for so long, be destroyed because of their mistakes. They had no other choice. They bowed at Yi Yun and said, "I submit …"
