Cultivation: When you take things to the extreme-Chapter 358 - 237: The Jade Command – Part 1

Chapter 358: Chapter 237: The Jade Command – Part 1

Three years later, Canglan Sea, Mispirit Island.

Cang Lan, turbulent waves of the deep-sea.

Located at the border of Xing Country, connected to the waters of the Canglan River, and facing Chen Country across the sea.

Xing Country was originally under the jurisdiction of Great Xing Mountain, while Chen Country was governed by the Haoqi Sect; you might say that well water does not interfere with river water.

However…

“White Jade Capital!”

“This is an outrage!”

In the council hall, Wei Wuya, the Great Golden Core Island Master of Mispirit Island, roared in a rage, slamming his mighty palm down and crushing a glowing white jade piece on the table into powder without scratching the table’s surface—a testament to his profound cultivation and exceptional skills.

The several elders around him were also displaying anger, mixed with a hint of alarm and panic.

“We respected his accomplishments in Slaughtering Demons and handed over the White Dragon Spirit Land, the Three Sects of Snow God, and the entire foundational territory of the three nations to him. Despite all that, they are still not satisfied, wanting to ban the Elixir Skills of Five Viscera Pills and even monopolize the world’s Demon Transformation Spiritual Objects!”

“Our Mispirit Island has withdrawn all our disciples and cultivators from the territories of the Three Sects and the borders of the three nations, even leaving no spies or informants behind. Still, our actions can’t fill the insatiable chasm of their greed, prompting them to issue this White Jade Command.”

“Outrageous, utterly outrageous!”

“Isn’t the land of the Three Sects, the border of the three nations, enough for them to monopolize?”

“Banning the Five Viscera Elixir Skills is one thing, but to take total control of the Demon Transformation Spiritual Objects too?”

“Who do they think they are, the Heavenly Immortal Taoist Master?”

“I’ve used those Demon Transformation Spirit Talismans and Spirit Pills before, yes, they have some effect, but they are nowhere near as good as the Five Viscera Pills!”

“And the price isn’t even low, it’s clear they want the world’s cultivators to be no more than beasts of burden, slaves and servants, fueling the White Jade Capital with their lifeblood and sweat!”

“And as for Demon Transformation Spiritual Objects, naturally formed by heaven and earth, why should the White Jade Capital have exclusive ownership over them?”

“Without the Five Viscera Pills and the Demon Transformation Spiritual Objects, how can we cultivate, how can we defend ourselves?”

“Such actions are clearly intended to drive us to a dead end!”

“It’s bad enough that he acts so presumptuously within the three nations, but now he extends his grasp to dominate every cultivator in the world?”

“We at Mispirit Island honored him as a Corpse Resolution Immortal, retreating time and time again, yielding over and over, yet his greed knows no bounds and he keeps pushing forward without leaving us an inch to spare. Does he really believe that he is the sole power in the world, unmatched by anyone?”

“If pushed to desperation, I will fight to the death against him. Even if it means mutual destruction, I won’t let him have his way!”

The group of Great Golden Core elders spoke with fervor, their words tinged with both fear and indignation.

Mispirit Island too was once a Corpse Resolution Sect, and although the ancestor eventually succumbed, leaving them as a mere Golden Core force, they remained dominant in their territory—deeply rooted and formidable, with several Great Golden Core cultivators residing at their core and dozens of Foundation Establishment practitioners—indisputably the snakes in command of Canglan Sea.

Such a Golden Core force, even if not as powerful as the Corpse Resolution Sects, could still dominate a region and rule over it.

Even the adjacent Haoqi Sect, a Sect with Divinity Transformation and Corpse Resolution masters, had to tacitly acknowledge their presence.

But this White Jade Capital…

Ever since the battle at Great Xing Mountain three years ago, when “Kong Xuan,” the Left Envoy of Jade Capital, made a world-shaking entrance, crushing the Blood Demon Yuwen Shang with his overwhelming strength, the foundational territory of the Three Sects of Snow God fell into the hands of the White Jade Capital.

Intimidated by his formidable prowess during the Demon Slaying battle, powers from all sides, including many Loose Cultivators, demonstrated their sincerity by withdrawing their disciples and extending their influence from the Three Sects’ territories, surrendering all people and resources of the three nations to the White Jade Capital without leaving a single spy.

Such humility, such a low stance—wasn’t that goodwill enough?

But what about him?

In the face of such awe and humility, how did the White Jade Capital respond, what did they repay?

Without limits in their greed, they kept pressing for more!

Shameless and tyrannical!

Securing the foundation of the Three Sects wasn’t enough; they had to issue the White Jade Command to the whole world, banning the Elixir Skills of Five Viscera Pills and seizing sole possession of the Demon Transformation Spiritual Objects, forbidding both sects and Loose Cultivators from practicing the Elixir Skills of the Five Viscera Pills, much less competing for the Demon Transformation Spiritual Objects.

Isn’t this tantamount to cutting off all cultivators’ path forward?

Don’t try to say that other pills and talismans can be used as substitutes. Why should we accept those substitutes?

Yes, you are powerful, you can even say unmatched in the world, but your strength does not give you the right to block everyone else’s path!

Without practicing the Five Viscera Pills, without acquiring Demon Transformation Spiritual Objects, to serve you like beasts, laboring away for talismans and pills that are far less effective?

Why should we agree to such a losing deal, just because you are strong?

Dissatisfaction, sheer dissatisfaction. I won’t stand for it.

But while dissatisfaction is one thing, given the enemy’s strength, we still need to plan strategically for the long term.

“With White Jade Capital acting so domineering, are we the only ones on Mispirit Island who are dissatisfied?”

“All powers have received this White Jade Command, both Foundation Establishment and Golden Core.”

“The Haoqi Sect, Vajra Sect, Longhua Temple, Great Brahma Temple, the four great Corpse Resolution Sects—are they going to let him do as he pleases?”

“Hmph, I suspect they’ve already reached an agreement in secret!”

“No wonder that after the battle at Great Xing Mountain three years ago, the Four Sects immediately banned the Five Viscera Elixir Skills within their doors and desperately searched for Demon Transformation Spiritual Objects. They must have known that White Jade Capital would pull such a stunt.”

“Hmph, such illustrious Corpse Resolution Sects, to kneel so submissively, so frightened by a single Kong Xuan; they truly disgrace the name of Immortal Gates!”

“With the Four Sects coordinating like this, they must have struck a deal with White Jade Capital, perhaps even related to the affair of their entire sect’s Ascension.”

“They ascend as a sect, and we’re expected to just sit and wait for death?”

“If they leave us no way out, then let it be mutual destruction; we join the Demon Path!” ƒree𝑤ebnσvel.com

“We’ll unite all cultivators and have it out with them!”

“Kong Xuan might be formidable, but I refuse to believe that everyone in White Jade Capital possesses such strength!”

“They want to ban the Five Viscera Elixir Skills? Fine, I will go from city to city in their domain, crafting Five Viscera Pills. I’d like to see how they will handle it, whether they can put a stop to me!”
