Chapter 1248: I Can Do Everything You Can Do (1/2)
Ordinarily, Emperor Pillzenith was a competent and restrained man But the Pinecrane Pill had become an object of obsession to him He desperately wanted one He knew better than anyone else what the pill meant
“Your Majesty, how real is the Pinecrane Pill?” Baili found it difficult to believe the pill was real
“I haven’t held it in hed softly “Pill King Hui, you had a chance that day, correct?”
“Your Majesty, the pill I was given was truly extraordinary It had an aura unlike any other pill I’ve seen I highly suspect it was the Pinecrane Pill”
“Your Majesty, Sacred Peafowl Mountain will attract a great deal of people with that pill of theirs Our Pill-Martial Summit will have a lot of popularity stolen away frozhi’s voice was dark Veluriyam Capital’s windmill counterattack put hi cultivators were a pragmatic bunch Threats and intimidation had little effect Most of them were hard-headed and hot-tempered individuals with peculiar personalities Violence wouldn’t restrict their actions In order to draw thele a carrot in front of thereat deal as bait in this regard They’d done so on a scale unseen for a thousand years But the words ‘Pinecrane Pill’ rendered all their efforts largely ineffective in one fell swoop
What pill was more desirable than one that could extend one’s life?
Neither the Tiger and Dragon Meet nor the Pill-Martial Su cultivator under the heavens That was an unrealistic expectation, and neither city could host so ather up the elite a them, the cream of the crop Members of that echelon tended to have cultivation levels that were at least respectable Ereat emperors alike found the Pinecrane Pill’s allure to be irresistible Who wouldn’t be teer life?
Absolutely no one Even sect experts would ju they had to attain that goal
Pill King Ji Lang was disgruntled “Hmph, Veluriyam Capital has never been known for its prowess in pills They’re probably overstating the Pinecrane Pill’s effects Plus, even if the pill is real, how can it compare to the plethora we have at Pillfire City? What can we possibly be scared of?”
Emperor Pillzenith was pleased to hear these words fro has a point Are they trying to take on the entire Pillfire City with just one type of pill?” sneered the great emperor “So what if the Pinecrane Pill is real? I don’t think evity Pill It must’ve been refined fro special about that”
Baili Shengzhi nodded in agreement “I doubt that Sacred Peafowl Mountain would refrain fro mass production if they could actually do it I think it’s more likely that they extracted the essence of sothen lifespans The name ‘Pinecrane Pill’ is just a ruse How many more of those pills can he have? Your Majesty, I think we can attack them on this front We can spread rumors that there’s not thatcultivators will benefit if they go to Veluriyarasped the key to turning the tables
“You’re right Do as you suggested, Baili,” E history of business dealings meant that it had a social network of its own The plan was executed on the spot, spreading rapidly throughout its tendrils Al cultivator world
“Perhaps the Pinecrane Pill exists, but rumor has it that the pill is refined from a rare natural treasure These treasures are difficult to find Moreover, Sacred Peafowl Mountain probably only has one or two pills There won’t be enough to go around Only the giants of the wandering cultivator world has a chance at the pills There’s no point for everyone else to attend Pillfire City is different, naturally Its history with pills is robust, and it has pills of every variety It is far ood record than soree The Pinecrane Pill is pretty incredible, but we’re too insignificant to do ht be able to participate in buying other pills for ourselves”
“The Pinecrane Pill is probably just a publicity stunt At the end of the day, it’s better to visit an established place Pillfire City has far ard”
The wind shi+fted once more The Pinecrane Pill was accepted, but suspicions were raised regarding Veluriya proficiency
