Chapter 461: Chapter 416: Open for Three Years!_2

Chen Yichang decisively regained his senses, enduring severe pain, forcing the Rune Seed out of his body.

A phantom arm was seen extending from inside him, pulling out an odd chess piece.

The chess piece was latticed with densely packed rune threads, akin to a massive net, covering the old man’s entire body.

As the chess piece was continuously extricated from his body, the cultivation Chen Yichang had just boosted started to rapidly retrogress.

Countless strengths, following the Rune Silk Thread, converged into the chess piece.

"Roar!"

Then, an anomaly occurred!

The mutant fishman, which was forced out to the sidelines, seemed to sense its own impending death. Suddenly, it appeared to acquire spiritual wisdom and charged at Wang Zijia.

"Damn it! The Spirit Demon has lost control!" Chen Yichang’s face drastically changed.

With his divided attention, the black chess piece he’d been inching out retreated significantly.

Wang Zijia narrowed his eyebrows, speaking seriously, "Ignore everything else, just focus on cooperating!"

Simultaneously, the Five Ghosts flew out, surrounding the mutant fishman, beginning to jointly attack it.

In face of the absolute gap in cultivation, spiritual wisdom, and numbers, the mutant fishman was directly laid on the ground by the Five Ghosts, grinding it down.

Seeing this, Chen Yichang quietly let out a sigh of relief, and once again began actively cooperating.

As the chess piece was slowly removed, Chen Yichang’s aura gradually weakened, and all various values began to be rapidly exchanged by Wang Zijia for Core Techniques and cultivation.

When all the pollution was cleared, the fishman by his side suddenly returned to normal, transforming into spiritual light, and pouring into the chess piece in front of him.

Only then did Chen Yichang, dumbstruck, wake up. He looked at Wang Zijia in astonishment, "What technique is this?"

Wang Zijia slightly knitted his eyebrows, it seems that he made it too easy for him!

With a slight movement of his mind, the closed senses decreased a bit. Simultaneously, he added more strength to his hand, entering the final stage.

"Uh... ah..."

Chen Yichang could no longer care about anything else, his eyes bloodshot. While emitting a mournful roar, he clenched his teeth and resisted, striving to cooperate with Wang Zijia.

"Stretch! Pop!"

With the cooperation of both men, the black chess piece was finally extracted completely by Wang Zijia from Chen Yichang, all his strength, including cultivation, soul power, all the extraordinary powers of the gathered Tao Law and runes, followed the silk thread, rushed into the chess piece.

One by one, the Rune Silk Threads were completely extricated from the body. Just like the coiling of silk thread, they returned to the chess piece covered in runes.

As more and more silk threads left his body, Chen Yichang’s aura visibly diminished. His already exhausted appearance faltered further; his eyes quickly dimmed.

Wang Zijia sighed inwardly, exerting more force with his Illusory Big Hand.

"Pop! Pop!"

A thread snapped each time as Wang Zijia started to instill runes, continually refining the rune group in front of him, suppressing it into the chess piece.

"Weng!"

As all the Rune Silk Threads collapsed and were suppressed into the chess piece by Wang Zijia, the chess piece emitted dazzling spiritual light.

At the same time, all silk threads left Chen Yichang’s body, he lost all signs of life, his head drooped, and he fell completely silent.

’Farewell!’, Wang Zijia quietly exclaimed.

Utensil: Fishman Chess

Level: Medium-grade Inheritance Spiritual Artifact

Inheritance One: Can be used to initiate the Peak Wine Ceremony on a Perfected, using this magic tool as the true seed to swiftly achieve the middle stage of Perfection. However, they will permanently lose the possibility of further progress.

Inheritance Two: Universe Law Canon (Perfected Chapter)

Inheritance Three: Fishman Spirit Demon Chapter - Top-grade Law Chapter can summon a Fishman who is not weaker than a late-stage Perfected using this chess piece.

Looking at the spiritual artifact in front of him that had been refined, Wang Zijia nodded in satisfaction. Even if it were completely normal people extracting the inheritance, the current utensils’ grade was quite perfect.

Not to mention, under Chen Yichang’s current condition, it was absolutely a super-level performance. It was well worth that he’d converted all his spare value!

He didn’t put away the objects but just swung his hand, opening the door.

"Patriarch!" Even though he was prepared, Chen Mingyong, waiting outside the room, still let out a lament. He knelt in front of the old man.

His entire life had been lived under the protection of Chen Yichang. He was his actual great-grandfather, his feelings for him even surpassed those for his parents and children.

Wang Zijia held the spiritual artifact, quietly watching.

...

A quarter of an hour later, Chen Mingyong collected Chen Yichang’s severely decayed bones and composed himself, then took the spiritual artifact from Wang Zijia’s hand.

"This... isn’t this a Devil Artifact?" Chen Mingyong exclaimed in surprise.

"Did I ever say that I was going to make an Inheritance Devil Artifact?" Wang Zijia replied indifferently.

Astonished, Chen Mingyong had just perceived the spiritual object for a moment when he exclaimed with shock, "A medium-grade spiritual tool, a Fishman in the late stages, did it truly form from the patriarch?"

With hands folded behind his back, Wang Zijia casually gave the other party some time to digest the information. After a while, he asked, "Senior Brother, are you satisfied?"

"Satisfied! Of course, I’m satisfied!" Chen Mingyong caressed the chess piece with slightly trembling hands.

With this, the Chen family was at least guaranteed peace for five hundred years!

"Shall we settle the account now?"

"Continue the conversation at the clan’s premises?"

Wang Zijia shook his head, "No need, let’s settle quickly. Senior Brother, you should bury your family’s patriarch first. We can talk more when there is time!"

Upon hearing this, Chen Mingyong did not insist.

"This spiritual tool contains a Cultivation Method and a top-grade Code inheritance. These two add up to four million. Any objections?" Wang Zijia inquired.

Chen Mingyong nodded in agreement.

"As for the spiritual tool that can initiate the middle stage, it’s another four million. All together, the spiritual tool is priced at eight million. Isn’t it quite cheap for a middle-stage Perfected One to get eight million magic money?" Wang Zijia asked with a slight smile.

Chen Mingyong frowned slightly. Although the calculation wasn’t as Wang Zijia had made it, he did not object, considering it as recompense for the unexpected gain of this tool for the Chen family.

"Since Senior Brother has no objections, the reward for this job is four million magic money, agreed?" Wang Zijia asked, a barely discernible joy in his words. If it weren’t for the inappropriate timing, he would have burst into laughter.

Even though Talisman Masters’ ability to make money wasn’t inferior to that of Heritage Masters, there was a huge difference between earning a salary daily and making a big fortune to last three years in one fell swoop.

"Agreed!" After a brief silence, Chen Mingyong agreed: "Junior Brother, would you like to pick a Spiritual Object from our clan’s library, or take the magic money?"

Although four million magic money was a significant amount that could leave their family in dire straits, even causing them to tighten their belts for the next few decades, he didn’t bargain.

"Is there any spiritual object related to an Infant God? Even an auxiliary one will work," Wang Zijia asked.

Chen Mingyong’s expression froze, and he gave a wry smile, "If our family had such a treasure, would we be in such a state of desolation?"

"Then let me have a look around your clan’s treasury," Wang Zijia replied.

"Okay!"

Without further ado, Chen Mingyong personally led Wang Zijia out of the cave and into a nearby building.

The place was packed with all sorts of objects, each meticulously packaged.

Full of aspirations, Wang Zijia inspected each, but was greatly disappointed.

The Chen family had had Perfected Ones for over ten generations, but their collection was inferior to his own. If you count the medicinal essences in his collection, they were nowhere close.

Right in his presence, Wang Zijia examined the entire warehouse, chose nothing, and only took a small part of the essence from about ten spiritual objects.

Seeing this, Chen Mingyong did not stop him.

In the end, Wang Zijia took only two million magic money and left the Chen family.

As for why it was two million... because their treasury was almost empty, and their bank account had around two million five hundred thousand left. They needed to keep some money for emergencies, so Wang Zijia only took two million.

The remaining two million was promised by the other party to be collected within a week, and Wang Zijia generously agreed.

...

As he flew alone towards White Peach Peak, Wang Zijia was elated.

Making four million in one go, Wang Zijia felt the feeling was simply wonderful.

It was equivalent to all the income he received from preaching and making talismans for half a year at White Peach Peak!

This Heritage Master business really paid off!

Wang Zijia sorted out his current financial situation amidst his thoughts.

Dao cultivation: 500 years (25,970,000/40,000,000)

Taiji: 800,000

Magic money: 4,380,000 (including 2,000,000 IOUs)

Dao Kung: 210,000

Merit: 60

Converted into value, it should be enough for the Second Red Copper Weight to condense the Chapters!

The unique nature of the second Dao foundation determined that it only required value to complete its condensation.
