CHAPTER 829: CHAPTER 375: THE DAOIST’S DECISIVENESS (PART 2)

"Their motives were never pure, but previously I had no other choice.

"Now, I can offer all the wealth and treasures here, in exchange for a promise or action from you."

"What promise?"

"You and Gao Huating to unite, make her a cultivator, and have more than two offspring."

He Ruli said:

"Our civilization has developed for too long, individual lifespans continue to lengthen, making it increasingly difficult to reproduce. This is the balance of nature.

"But there are no limitations for you and Gao Huating.

"I know you have the ability to refine your reproductive cells, preventing women from conceiving."

"Wait a minute?"

Wang Jixuan stared at He Ruli:

"You want me to be the breeding stock for your civilization?"

He Ruli smiled bitterly: "Please don’t be so crude, but only the lineage of pioneers and leaders can become the individuals to revive our civilization... I’m truly at the brink of collapse, even if I use the Power of Soul from other intelligent life to prolong my life, I might still fall into chaos."

"It seems unrelated to me, do I owe you something?"

Wang Jixuan sneered slightly:

"You’ve been the one doing evil, scheming, while we just want to save some weak ones.

"How come now, you act like a victim?

"Where is Gao Huating?"

"She’s resting in the hall beside," He Ruli seemed to want to retaliate verbally.

Wang Jixuan, however, didn’t give her the chance: "Take me to see her, first confirm she’s neither dead nor controlled by you, then we continue our conversation."

He Ruli tightly pressed her lips.

She seemed to want to say something but lowered her head with a sigh instead, turning to lead the way.

Wang Jixuan winked at Amina.

Amina gently blinked in response.

If she understood Wang Jixuan’s signal, it seemed to mean waiting for the right moment and not forcing it.

In fact, what Wang Jixuan wanted to express was...

’You can’t be weak against this kind of person, confront them first.’

Nierdamon followed silently behind them, watching Wang Jixuan’s back, continuously contemplating.

...

Gao Huating was lying on a lavish bed.

She was still wearing that combat uniform, her face ruddy, breathing steadily, with no visible injuries.

However, He Ruli hadn’t lifted the formation enveloping this hall.

Wang Jixuan lifted his chin: "Unlock the sealing."

"Uh, sorry."

He Ruli said softly:

"I need you to agree to my terms first."

"I can’t give you this promise," Wang Jixuan replied calmly, "You are neither qualified nor in the position to demand a promise from me."

He Ruli smiled bitterly: "I’ve reached such a state now, dignity and face hold no meaning, I just want to remedy past mistakes."

"Everyone has many regrets, I think you need to learn to accept regrets."

Wang Jixuan was unyielding:

"I’m not interested in your dignity and face.

"To treat me as breeding stock for reproduction, this is something I will not agree to, it would affect my Dao Heart.

"Moreover, there are other options for you to revive your civilization, look at these spirit cultivators here, the core circuit within them is your creation.

"Isn’t this what you’ve been pursuing all along?"

"The number of core circuits is ultimately limited," He Ruli replied, "We want to create a universal method of cultivation, allowing each individual to have a similar minimum threshold."

"That’s even more impossible, there’s not enough Spiritual Energy to go around."

Wang Jixuan sneered:

"If you want to threaten me, then do it openly, stop being so bothersome.

"Gao Huating is my friend, so I care about her life, what else do you have to leverage?"

Wang Jixuan flicked his fingers lightly, causing the Crystal Ball on the cushion in the hall he previously entered to shatter.

He Ruli frowned and asked: "Aren’t you afraid that I might completely side with the Blade Beast Civilization or Hei Yao and their spirit cultivators?"

"Not afraid, do as you wish."

Wang Jixuan replied calmly:

"You should know my abilities, even though I’m not strong enough yet, and the path of Heaven and Earth Bridge is not completed, once I form my Nascent Soul, I can stand in the Land of Unbeaten.

"Dealing with them is just a matter of time."

He Ruli suddenly laughed: "Then don’t you want to retrieve the memories of the Three Realms Wanderer?"

Wang Jixuan laughed as well: "Do you think I’m a fool?"

He Ruli didn’t know how to respond for a moment.

Wang Jixuan passed by her figure, holding the railing in the corridor, admiring the beautiful scenery before him.

He laughed:

"I can probably guess your thoughts, you want to lay everything open and then negotiate terms with us openly.

"But in doing so, you also expose the fact that you really don’t have many cards to play.

"This place can trap me for a while, but it’s also a great place for cultivation. Can you trap me for a lifetime?"

He Ruli whispered: "According to historical records, the personality of the pioneer is extremely gentle..."

"It was you who forced me to become a Fallen Demon, have you forgotten?"

Wang Jixuan said calmly:

"I’ve never felt like this before, so free, so unrestrained.

"But remember, if I want to pick the flower Gao Huating, it would only be because I’m interested, not to breed for your civilization.

"You’re really enough.

"Has your spiritual body’s thoughts been soaked in sewage? How can you say such a terrible idea with such confidence?

"You just mentioned memories from the Three Realms Wanderer period.

"Those memories correspond to my second Mahayana Soul, but he is not here at the moment, isn’t it? What can you offer me?

"It was the complete me that escaped at the time, but I chose to forget the experiences of the Three Realms Wanderer.

"This seems to indirectly prove that the bad things you did to me back then were far more than you said."

You can tell from He Ruli’s expression that he was right again.

Wang Jixuan was truly speechless.

He had wandered before, and seemed to have suffered.

He Ruli said directly: "Since that’s the case, then state your conditions, Wang Jixuan."

"First, open the planet barrier."

"Okay, consider it a bonus in our transaction this time."

"Return Gao Huating."

"Only when Gao Huating becomes pregnant and gives birth to your offspring, will I let her leave."

"Then I will take her myself later," Wang Jixuan said, "then meet the conditions of these two friends of mine."

Amina immediately said: "I need the technology of this civilization, technology that can restrain the Blade Beast Civilization and what Hei Yao acquired!"

He Ruli set the price directly: "I need the Spirit Cultivation Civilization and Human Civilization to provide sufficient reverence."

"And by reverence you mean?"

Nierdamon said: "It’s essentially allegiance."

Amina replied: "I can only represent the Star Night lineage. The Yina Civilization is our source and mother, expressing reverence isn’t an issue."

He Ruli asked: "What about the human civilization on the surface?"

They all looked at Wang Jixuan.

Master Wang shrugged: "You know, I’m just a consultant, can’t dare make decisions for them, but I think the mechanical technology here should also interest humans. If you can fully respect human rights and the survival rights of low-level civilizations, I could help you with persuasion."

He Ruli said: "I only have these conditions."

Wang Jixuan calmly said: "Then... happy cooperation?"

He Ruli shook her head: "For everything to work, you and Gao Huating must reproduce offspring; otherwise, my civilization doesn’t have a carrier."

Wang Jixuan pointed at Amina and Nierdamon: "Aren’t they good enough? Look at Amina, beautiful and intelligent, and Nierdamon is a top-notch and valiant military leader."

The two spirit cultivators smiled.

He Ruli continued to shake her head: "Their bloodline isn’t pure, essentially they are just humans."

The two spirit cultivators instantly stopped smiling.

"Then let’s not talk!"

Wang Jixuan suddenly raised his hand, punching the barrier enclosing the grand hall.

Afterwards, he was gently pushed away by a soft force.

He Ruli’s figure instantly became faint, her sigh sounded: "Since that’s the case, I can only use violent means... first subdue a few..."

Nierdamon immediately reminded: "Be careful."

The entire palace area began to tremble continuously, with spiritual energy converging on several points.

Six powerful Qis quickly awakened...

Puppet?

Wang Jixuan blinked, whispered: "Don’t resist, if we can’t win later, surrender."

Amina couldn’t help but mutter: "Then why were you so tough just now?"

"Wasn’t I trying to test his limits."

The Daoist chuckled awkwardly, a glint appearing in his eyes.

Since they came, they couldn’t leave empty-handed, causing a ruckus first, and later see how it goes.

There’s something he must understand.

If there’s really a second impact of the Heavenly Tribulation, the remaining Mahayana Soul must be stronger in cultivation power than the Mahayana Soul after the first impact failed.

Where did this ’him’ go?

If found, allowing him to return to self, the great path can be expected.
