Chapter 1044: Chapter 804: The Dead Seed Left by the Heavenly and Earthly Spiritual Roots?! _3

"Later, by some stroke of fate, I came across an ancient secret realm and discovered a wonder of heaven and earth, which seemed to be the spirit seeds of some spiritual plants."

"What’s miraculous is that this object possesses spirit object properties."

"Therefore, originally I thought to take the example of the Immortal Refiner refining himself into a tool, to encapsulate the spirit within me and transform myself into an Immortal Sprout, becoming a Wood Immortal."

"Who would have thought that I wouldn’t succeed in becoming an Immortal Sprout, but the wondrous object acted as if it was the spirit object most compatible with me, carrying my Dao Consistency."

"So, before I knew it, in a daze, I inexplicably congealed the Mysterious Immortal Fruit Position and became a bona fide, orthodox Immortal."

"All should have ended there, but roughly sixty to seventy thousand years ago, while exploring a broken world once more, I stumbled upon some ancient relics."

"During that process, I fell into a trap in a Mysterious Domain, though I later killed all the wood demons and broke the trap."

"But since then, I’ve found something wrong with myself, as if I’ve been poisoned by some toxin."

"The process was very subtle, completely without any signs, by the time I noticed, it was ten thousand years later, and my Dao Foundation seemed to be troubled, turned sentient, as if wanting to defect."

"After that, I thought of countless methods, but none were effective, all the way until now, gradually turning into what you see before you."

"This tree you see is, in fact, the manifestation of my Tao and reason!"

Hearing the other party’s story and piecing together the general information, Wang Zijia roughly understood the situation.

It seemed that the other party had touched the relic of the Spirit Pearl, found its remaining Spiritual Roots’ dead seed and transformed it into a Spirit Object, carrying the Dao Consistency.

In fact, there were similarities to Wang Zijia’s breakthrough to Mysterious Immortal.

There would have been no issue initially, but later it seems they encountered a tricky domain left by the death path of a Spirit Pearl, causing the dead seed to undergo a strange variation.

Actually, to describe it as defection is not quite appropriate.

To be precise, it is as though the other party has been infected by the dead seed, instinctively evolving in the direction of the Spirit Pearl, ultimately transforming into a new life akin to that of a Spirit Pearl?

Considering the Callable Value Degree is merely 310 trillion, those Dao Carrying spirit seeds probably have not been fully digested, or perhaps not digested at all by the other party.

Otherwise, the value obtained from the dead Heavenly and Earthly Spiritual Roots should be tremendously terrifying, after all, these are beings that are born as golden immortals.

To let something undigested carry the Dao, such a consequence is too normal, with just one catalyst, they are doomed forever!

······

After Bai Kuncheng finished speaking, the hall fell quiet once again.

A moment later, Bai Liang couldn’t help but ask again, "So, is it solvable?"

Wang Zijia did not make any promises, after all, this exchange couldn’t directly solve the problem, even if he exchanged the abnormal status, the parasitism couldn’t be resolved, and the source of assimilation remained.

The other party would go through the same process of assimilation over the years, and after tens of thousands of years, they would again be assimilated into their current state.

Thus Wang Zijia cautiously stated, "I can only guarantee to resolve the variation state, that is to say, to return Fellow Daoist to the initial condition of the variation."

"As for the root cause of the variation, I cannot guarantee I can solve it."

Bai Liang was taken aback, then rejoiced and said, "Does that mean, in the worst-case scenario, one treatment would be effective for seventy thousand years, and the Patriarch would experience the variation process once again? Then another treatment would be necessary, is that the correct understanding?"

Wang Zijia shook his head and said, "I need to correct one point, you forgot about whether the assimilation process will intensify again. In other words, the first instance took seventy thousand years to mutate to this point."

"But the second time might only take thirty thousand years, or even ten thousand years, and if it grows exponentially, perhaps it will only take three thousand years... Of course, all this is the worst-case scenario."

Upon hearing this, Bai Kuncheng rarely showed a smile as well, saying, "In that case, why do I need to hesitate? Fellow Daoist, you may not know, before you, those from the Pill Pavilion had virtually sentenced me to death."

Wang Zijia nodded and said, "Since you have no objections, before we start, I have a request."

Bai Liang, realizing they had entered the negotiation for compensation, said, "What do you want, Fellow Daoist? As long as the Bai Family can do it, we will surely satisfy."

"First of all, this treatment will cost roughly ten million Spirit Essence," Wang Zijia stated.

Bai Liang was stunned, his expression one of astonishment, "Direct payment, not equivalent treasures?"

Wang Zijia nodded and said, "You could also provide low-level Spirit Medicine, I have ways of handling those within the Sect, this Fellow Daoist you should be very clear about."

Bai Liang’s expression turned odd, he still felt that this newly initiated Suppressing Spirit Pavilion Master of Taiching didn’t quite understand what it meant for their Bai Family to fully commit to doing a favor for him!

"Ten million Spirit Essence is quite a lot, but it’s not a big issue for our clan, I can arrange for it right away," Bai Liang said without hesitating.

After receiving a response, Wang Zijia held up a second finger and said, "The second requirement is, during the treatment process, whatever I extract, I want to take away."

Bai Kuncheng and Bai Liang both paused for a moment, Bai Liang didn’t immediately speak but looked towards Bai Kuncheng.

Bai Kuncheng suddenly had an epiphany, realizing many key points, and said, "So that’s how it is, I have never digested that thing, have I? Surely it’s its ’toxin’ that influenced me, right?"

Wang Zijia did not reply, only watching Bai Kuncheng.

Upon hearing this, Bai Liang also realized something, an undigested object could achieve the position of a Mysterious Immortal, he understood that was the key point.

He opened his mouth to say something.

But Wang Zijia suddenly stated, "If you don’t agree to this condition, then please seek someone else with more expertise. I don’t want to risk my life, only to end up fertilizing flowers."

Bai Liang frowned at his words and said, "Are you suggesting that if the extraction isn’t refined, there will be trouble?"

Wang Zijia still did not reply, just repeating, "These are my conditions, it’s entirely up to you to agree or not."
