Chapter 790: Chapter 663: Final Rites or Sublimation?! 【Seeking Subscriptions, Seeking Monthly Tickets】_2

"My destiny Gu is specifically chosen for this. Do you have experience cultivating a living inheritance?" he asked.

It was no wonder that even though he was at the peak of Tribulation Crossing, the other party was asking if he was a Seventh-Rank Inheritance Master.

It was one thing to forge an inheritance treasure, but creating a living inheritance was a colossal and complicated task!

A sixth-rank Inheritance Master might not necessarily be able to handle it. Add to that a target that’s especially messed up, and even seventh-rank can’t necessarily ensure success!

"You want me to use his body as the material, forge a heritage larva, and ultimately merge it with your destiny Gu, thereby directly allowing your destiny Gu to inherit some of his power for breaking through the Tribulation without affecting your future cultivation?"

As Wang Zijia paused here and said, "Such a professional proposal... so, you have already consulted with inheritance masters, even more than one?"

"Yes! We have consulted with some inheritance masters, but you are the first one we have invited to see the actual situation." Zhu Fazheng frankly replied.

Wang Zijia looked at him and said, "I am also the only seventh-rank Inheritance Master you have been able to get in touch with."

Zhu Fazheng fell silent, and both of them understood the meaning of these words: it was time to discuss the price. After all, Wang Zijia had already started indicating his uniqueness and subtly raising the price!

"Is the elder confident?" Instead of immediately discussing the price, Zhu Fazheng asked this question.

Wang Zijia looked at him and said, "If you ask that, there will be another price."

On hearing these words, Zhu Fazheng’s face began to twitch.

An Inheritance Master basically makes enough living for three years within one business deal, grabbing a huge profit in one shot, scheming without expecting any repeat customers.

This was the universally acknowledged market situation.

However, Wang Zijia had already raised the price twice before any concrete discussions about the price had started. How could Zhu Fazheng not be vexed!

"Does the elder mean that you can ensure success if the price is right?" Despite his frustration, Zhu Fazheng asked expectantly.

This ’can’ was worded very flexibly.

Wang Zijia glanced at the pile of Gu insects in front of him, but instead of immediately replying, he asked, "Since you called me here, you must have some kind of means in your family to awaken your ancestor, right? At least to keep him lucid for a short period of time?"

Hearing this, Zhu Fazheng nodded, but immediately added, "But our ancestor is almost completely dispersed, and he can probably only be forcibly awakened once."

Though the language was veiled, Wang Zijia understood that if he was not sure, he should not wake the ancestor.

Wang Zijia still did not give the other party a definite answer and said, "Let me see the situation after waking him up!"

Hearing this, Zhu Fazheng hesitated for a while and looked at Wang Zijia, wanting to speak several times.

Without looking back, Wang Zijia said, "In all of East Wilderness, can you find any other Seventh-Rank Inheritance Master besides me? Or do you have the ability to invite a high-ranking person from the Central Immortal Domain?"

Zhu Fazheng fell silent for a while. Did he have the power to make his ancestor try to become immortal here?

Wang Zijia did not expect an answer from him. He turned around and looked at Zhu Fazheng’s silence, then spread his hands and said, "That’s it, if I can’t do it, no one can."

"In such a situation, whether I succeed or fail depends on fate. Even if I give you a reassuring answer, will the outcome be any different?"

"So it’s pointless for you to ask these questions. I need to see the specific situation before I can make a decision. A living inheritance is not as simple as you think. It is far more complicated than a simple initiation."

"Because of the terrible situation in front of you, any other Seventh-Rank Inheritance Master would probably walk away immediately on hearing that you want a living inheritance."

Upon hearing this, Zhu Fazheng hesitated for a moment and then asked, "So, what about the fee?"

Wang Zijia shook his head, completely changing his previous eager attitude concerning the price, and said, "I need to see the situation first."

Once again, Zhu Fazheng’s face twitched. Previously, he seemed eager to increase the price, but now...

This was no longer just a matter of high pricing!

This was the clear stance of, ’I’m going to butcher you, but only after I’ve sized you up properly and can bleed you dry!!!’

Zhu Fazheng suppressed a faint panic in his heart and said nothing more. He was afraid that if they kept on talking, he might end up having to sell off the entire Zhu Family!

With a surge of magical power over his whole body, the meat worm, his destiny Gu, suddenly squirmed and spat out a small, milky white liquid.

As soon as the liquid was spit out, not only Zhu Fazheng himself, but also his destiny Gu, seemed to wilt all at once.

A mighty Dao cultivator, at best, has only the equivalent output of a bottle cap, and just one drop makes him seem fully drained. That’s a bit too weak!

...

While Wang Zijia was lost in thoughts, the milky white liquid had already flown into the honeycomb in the hall.

One of the grub insects in its core poked its head out and swallowed it in a bite.

"Swish!"

The next moment, Wang Zijia saw an even more disgusting scene.

All the wriggling larvae in the honeycomb fell to the ground, piled up like mountains.

With their heads plunged into the mound of flesh, they conversely formed a distinctively regular fleshy hillock.

The meat mountain kept writhing, sharpening, and finally, a human head covered in slime wriggled out of the peak.

From afar, the scene seemed as though the fleshy mound had grown hair, as the bodies of all the larvae turned into the mound’s furry surface. A head, dripping with mucous, stood at the peak of the mound while its closed eyes gradually opened.

As the eyes opened, Wang Zijia finally sensed a slight presence of Immortal Spirit.

He wasn’t a complete waste, at least he wasn’t entirely fruitless.

The head appeared in a daze, regaining consciousness after a moment.

It was a woman whose appearance should have been pleasant. There were no signs of old age, albeit the head’s exposure and the gooey substance covering it made her look rather like an immortal goddess!

"The unworthy offspring pays homage to my ancestor!"

The woman’s head was slathered with mucous, but there was a growing brightness in her eyes. Looking at Zhu Fazheng and Wang Zijia, she asked, "Is it time?"

"I have failed as a grandson. In the end, I could only cause you such pain..." Zhu Fazheng started to choke with guilt.

It was noticeable that this person was, unsurprisingly, his direct blood relative, and even the generational gap didn’t seem too vast.

"I have burdened the family for five thousand years, and have accomplished nothing. I have to do something." The eerie head woman, Zhu Qi, whispered a sentence and then turned to Wang Zijia, "What an embarrassment, I’ve given my Fellow Daoist quite a show!"

Wang Zijia shook his head indifferently, saying, "I surely don’t have the courage of a Fellow Daoist. If I mock you, wouldn’t I be even worse?"

The woman seemed to take it lightly and regardless of whether Wang Zijia was being polite or sincere, she went straight to the point, "I don’t have much time, how certain are you?"

Wang Zijia said, "Your situation is somewhat unusual, Zhu Daoist. I would need a closer examination before I can conclude."

"Well, Fellow Daoist, have a look." The woman said nonchalantly and added, "Fellow Daoist had awakened me specifically. Is there anything you need me to cooperate with?"

Wang Zijia flipped his hand and pulled out an ordinary pill, saying, "I need you to swallow this thing. Yes, you might feel some foreign invasion."

"This is my special method. Not only does it have an investigative effect, but it will also infect your Dao Consistency, making it easier to extract the inheritance later."

In between his words, Wang Zijia directly tossed the Elixir over.

Zhu Qi swallowed it without hesitation, which was the reason Wang Zijia decided to start as an Inheritance Master.

Since he was here for her last rites, how could his target worry about him harming her?

So, all the targets for the last rites could easily be Demon Seeded by him, and they could even potentially turn into high-quality targets.

...

As Zhu Qi swallowed the Elixir, the three of them stopped speaking and quietly waited for the effect, casting an eerie silence in the Great Hall.

What made Wang Zijia frown was that her internal condition was perhaps too terrible, and the progress of the Demon Seeding was unusually slow.

Fortunately, he boldly expressed his intentions. Otherwise, it would have been completely impossible to accomplish this covertly.

It took nearly three minutes for Wang Zijia to feel the completion of the Demon Seeding. This was under the premise that Zhu Qi did not resist and actively cooperated.

This showed how terrible her condition was!
