The Blood King's possession of the Ancestor God's blood was his secret.
Yi Yun was born in the Tian Yuan world, and after hearing Jiang Xiaorou's description of the Blood King's growth, he had inferred that the Blood King possessed the Ancestor God's blood.
It was unlikely that the Ruins Emperor knew of this secret.
However, when Yi Yun's pills were produced, the phenomenon that resulted was the fusion of a Human, Fey, and Celestial, although it only lasted for a few seconds.
However, the Ruins Emperor had probably figured something out from the phenomenon. The Ruins Emperor had likely seen the Ancestor God's blood before, and as such, he could sense the Ancestor God's aura from the phenomenon!
If the Ruins Emperor could figure it out, so could the two patriarchs!
Using the Ancestor God's blood to refine pills was absolutely intolerable to the Celestials. The Ancestor God to the Celestials was akin to the Heaven Fey Patriarchs to the Fey.
If Yi Yun were to use the Fey cores of the two patriarchs of the Ruins Emperor Palace to refine pills, wouldn't it be disastrous if the ancient Heaven Fey learned of it?
Just this matter alone was enough to cause the Celestials to pursue Yi Yun with all their might!
As for the Blood King, it was impossible for him to protect Yi Yun.
This was the Ruins Emperor's bargaining chip. Previously, Jiang Yuchan had only been mentioned casually. This move was his trump card.
Yi Yun knew that at the end of the day, the Ruins Emperor wanted the Myriad Form Shura Pill's recipe!
Such a pill that was extremely beneficial to the Fey naturally had to be in his hands. That was the way to go!
At that moment, the Ruins Emperor was looking into Yi Yun's eyes.
The Celestials were the true rulers of the Chaos Heavens. In addition, the Ruins Emperor and the two patriarchs he represented were the rulers of the Fey. If Yi Yun were to reject it, it would be equivalent to offending two super factions in the Chaos Heavens!
Even Fey Thearchs and Godly Monarchs did not have such courage.
Typically, when juniors encountered such situations, no matter how calm they acted on the surface, they would have long lost their composure and become insatiable.
However, that was not the case for Yi Yun.
He remained calm, and the Ruins Emperor could sense that his composure was not faked.
Yi Yun said, "The Myriad Form Shura Pill's recipe does contain the Ancestor God's blood. If the Ruins Emperor were to leak this matter, the Fey would not be able to use the Myriad Form Shura Pill. This pill would become a taboo for the Celestials."
"That's still better than nothing, not to mention that you're a human." The Ruins Emperor's words already contained a hint of threat. "On the other hand, if you are willing to hand it over, I will give you what you want. I will provide you with astounding resources, allowing your cultivation to be smooth sailing! It's even to the extent that if your pill formula brings immense benefits to the Fey, it would be negotiable even if you were to propose for Jiang Xiaorou to succeed as Ruins Empress. "
Yi Yun was not angered by the Ruins Emperor's threat. On the contrary, he felt that the Ruins Emperor was already being polite.
Yi Yun originally believed that the Fey were similar to beasts in temperament, and that the upper echelons of the Fey were ancient Fey beasts that ate humans without spitting out their bones. But after this encounter, Yi Yun felt that the conditions offered by the Ruins Emperor were pretty good.
In the world of cultivators, strength was everything. When one was not strong enough, one should be grateful if they were forced to buy or sell. It was better than killing and robbing.
Faced with the double threat of the God Race and the Demon Race, as well as such amazing benefits, a normal junior would have gladly accepted it.
However, Yi Yun was naturally not an ordinary junior.
He said indifferently, "As for the pill formula … It's not that I don't want to give it to you, but even if I did, you wouldn't be able to understand it."
"Oh!?" A cold glint flashed in the Ruins Emperor's eyes!
Yi Yun's words were said in a casual and indifferent tone, but at times, it was hard to tell the difference between such a tone and one of contempt.
The Ruins Emperor did not know if Yi Yun was deliberately belittling the Fey. His expression was perfect, making it impossible to tell.
But if Yi Yun's words were changed to: "It's not that I don't want to impart my knowledge to you, but even if I did, all of you would be illiterate and unable to read."
Then, it would not feel out of place.
Just as Yi Yun said that, he suddenly sensed another lifeblood force appear in the hall. This lifeblood force was boiling like a tsunami!
In fact, Yi Yun had previously sensed that there was another person in the hall, but he had feigned ignorance.
And now, the other party had been infuriated by his words. He finally stopped hiding.
Yi Yun turned his head and saw a person walk out of the darkness. Yi Yun had already guessed his identity.
He was none other than the Heaven Fey Relic Pagoda's Pagoda Lord — Jiang Lichen!
Jiang Lichen became a Fey Thearch earlier than the Luo King. He was a Fey elite of the same generation as Ruins Emperor Jiang Jiuzhu. He had also witnessed Jiang Jiuzhu's ascension to the throne.
As Jiang Lichen was engrossed in alchemy, he had no intention of participating in the fight for the throne. Therefore, Jiang Lichen was considered one of the few Fey Thearchs in Heaven Fey City who had a rather amicable relationship with Jiang Jiuzhu.
The Ruins Emperor did not know alchemy, so he had gotten Jiang Lichen to listen in to see if Yi Yun was up to any tricks.
Unexpectedly, Yi Yun did not pull any tricks and instead blurted out arrogant words. The gist of it was that he was not targeting anyone among the Fey, but that the Fey's alchemy skills were trash.
This was like a slap to Jiang Lichen's face.
He, Jiang Lichen, represented the highest alchemy standards of the ancient Heaven Fey. But what Yi Yun said was not that they could not learn the pill formulas he gave them, but that they could not understand the pill formulas he gave them!
How could Jiang Lichen tolerate that?
"So it's you, Pagoda Lord." Yi Yun still gave a junior's bow, but this bow looked like a mockery to Jiang Lichen.
Jiang Lichen looked at Yi Yun with a burning gaze. "I've always heard of people who think highly of themselves because of their talent, but I've never seen one as arrogant as you. Young people who are too arrogant can easily die without knowing why."
Jiang Lichen's words had a faint killing intent to them.
Yi Yun said with a smile, "Pagoda Lord, there are specializations in every field. It's not that I look down on the Fey's alchemy skills, but when it comes to my mystic arts, the Fey's alchemists might not be able to do anything. If you don't believe me, you can give it a try. "
When Yi Yun said that, Jiang Lichen's eyes narrowed slightly.
This was equivalent to Yi Yun's declaration of war!
He wanted to compete with Jiang Lichen's alchemy skills!
And Jiang Lichen represented the ancient Heaven Fey, as well as the entire Fey's alchemy skills.
If he were to lose …
The Ruins Emperor looked at Jiang Lichen. "Lichen, don't be goaded."
Logically speaking, it was impossible for Yi Yun to defeat Jiang Lichen. No matter how much of a genius he was, he was ultimately limited by his age. The Ruins Emperor guessed that Yi Yun had used a trick to refine the Myriad Form Shura Pills.
However, despite the trick, it was a fact that Yi Yun's refinement of the Myriad Form Shura Pills had stirred up a phenomenon. This was done in a situation that everyone thought was a farce.
Such a person was naturally no fool. For him to dare issue a challenge, he probably had something to rely on!
If he really treated him as an ordinary junior, he would be the one suffering. The Luo King was a famous Fey Thearch. He did not lack strength or means, but didn't he still suffer at the hands of this punk?
