Li Yun burst out laughing too.
"I was only joking, but since you're being so generous, Saint Chu Emperor, I won't stand on ceremony."
"If you can, give me some Saint Venerable Cultivation Techniques!"
Saint Chu Emperor froze.
"Wait..."
"Your Emperor Nature is already nine zhang tall. If you were outside, you'd be on the verge of becoming a Saint Emperor. What do you need Saint Venerable Cultivation Techniques for?"
Li Yun shook his head.
"On the verge... but I haven't become one yet."
"So I plan to build a stronger foundation before I advance. Saint Venerable Cultivation Techniques are an excellent resource for that..."
"Build a stronger foundation before becoming a Saint Emperor? Hah... makes sense!"
"It's a good idea."
"In that case, take all these techniques. They're no use to me anymore."
"Besides, I don't even know whether I'll ever leave this damned place. If I succumb to the darkness one day, keeping them would only hand them to those bastards from Great Black Heaven for free."
Without a moment's hesitation, Saint Chu Emperor reached into the Void.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh—
Dozens of ancient Jade Slips flew out of the dark Void and landed steadily in Li Yun's palm.
The Jade Slips were mottled and worn, marked by the passage of time. Each carried ancient Dao Resonance. Saint Chu Emperor had collected them over many years, and some contained techniques he had even cultivated himself.
Li Yun looked them over, and wild delight spread across his face.
Nearly all of these dozens of Jade Slips contained rare, top-tier Saint Venerable Cultivation Techniques. Three even contained Half-Emperor Cultivation Techniques.
If these Jade Slips were taken outside, any small or midsize faction that obtained them could soar to prominence overnight.
I've struck it rich!
