Thinking of this, Ling Wudao sent a voice transmission to Nüwa. "We won't take the Nine Revolutions Golden Pills. Leave them for that old bastard Taiqing."
"The Nine Revolutions Golden Pills are good stuff. Why not take them? Why leave them for Taiqing?"
"I have my reasons for leaving them for that old dog Taiqing."
"He'll probably use these Nine Revolutions Golden Pills to heal the injuries he suffered over at Shouyang Mountain. What do you think would happen if I added something to them?"
"Oh!"
"What are you planning to add? Tell me."
Ignoring Nüwa's response, Ling Wudao took the box containing the Nine Revolutions Golden Pills from her hand, then pulled out a Golden Talisman.
"Edict!"
As his voice fell, the Golden Talisman flew onto the box before turning into runes and vanishing.
The corners of Ling Wudao's mouth curled upward slightly. He put the box back, restored the formation on the stone wall, and sent a voice transmission to Nüwa. "Let's go!"
"Wait. Let me throw down a Sarira first."
With that, Nüwa tossed down a Sarira, then left the Eight Scenery Palace together with Ling Wudao.
When the two appeared again, they had already returned to Nüwa Palace.
Nüwa looked at Ling Wudao. "Now can you tell me what talisman you planted inside the Nine Revolutions Golden Pills?"
"Hehe!"
"I planted a talisman called the Farting Talisman inside those pills. It doesn't cause any offensive damage, but it makes people fart, and it lasts an entire day."
Upon hearing this, Nüwa immediately burst into laughter.
"You're even worse than I am. At most, I would take his pills and spiritual roots, but you're stripping him of his dignity."
"If this got exposed, Taiqing would lose all his face."
Ling Wudao snorted. "Does that old dog Taiqing even have any face left?"
"This is merely a small lesson for him."
"Let's take stock of our gains this time!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Ling Wudao took out the treasures he had looted. Seeing this, Nüwa waved her hand, and the pills, Dharma treasures, and spiritual roots all fell onto the ground.
Looking at the treasures scattered everywhere, Nüwa revealed a delighted expression.
"These things will be enough for the human race for a while. But we can't take out and use the Dharma treasures we stole, or Yuanshi and Taiqing will know that we did it."
Hearing Nüwa's words, Ling Wudao looked at the more than one thousand Dharma treasures on the ground. "These really can't be used openly. How about this? I'll absorb them to raise my strength. That way, I won't need to search all over the Great Desolation for treasures."
"Fine, let's do that!"
"Oh, take the Three Lights Divine Water on the ground. There isn't much of it, but it can save your life at a critical moment."
Ling Wudao looked at the few bottles of Three Lights Divine Water on the ground. "All right. Then you take the remaining spiritual roots and pills. Also, the human race now needs its own cultivation methods. I need to enter seclusion and break through to the Qi Refining Stage Late Phase. That way, when you abolish your own Saint Position, the human race will have some protection."
Nüwa nodded, then waved her hand and put away all the spiritual roots and treasures on the ground. "Leave the cultivation methods to me. You can enter seclusion and break through here, so I can protect you."
"Fine!"
As his voice fell, Ling Wudao put away the more than one thousand Dharma treasures on the ground.
Then, he headed toward a side hall of Wa Huang Palace.
After arriving at the side hall, Ling Wudao sat down cross-legged and entered the System Space.
"System, can you extract the origins of these Dharma treasures? That way, I can raise my cultivation realm."
Ding! It is possible for the host to extract the origins of Dharma treasures to increase strength. However, the host should consider this carefully. Once the origin of a Dharma treasure is extracted, that Dharma treasure will become useless.
"No need to consider it. Extract the origins of these Dharma treasures for me!"
With a wave of Ling Wudao's hand, more than one thousand Dharma treasures appeared on the ground. Low-grade spiritual treasures made up the majority, while there were only a little over one hundred mid-grade spiritual treasures and just over thirty high-grade spiritual treasures.
Ding! Beginning extraction of Dharma treasure origins...!
Ding! Extraction complete. Host has obtained a total of one thousand portions of origin.
Looking at the more than one thousand portions of origin floating before him, Ling Wudao began absorbing them to make his breakthrough.
Meanwhile, Yuanshi's disciples discovered that their treasure vaults had been robbed and all entered a frenzy. Some even destroyed their own cave abodes.
Within Nine Immortals Mountain, Guang Chengzi held a Sarira and roared, "Western bald donkeys, I will never rest until one of us is dead!"
"Aaaah! Aaaah! Aaaah!"
Immediately afterward, Guang Chengzi turned into a streak of light and flew toward Kunlun Mountain. He was not alone; every disciple of the Chan Sect flew toward Kunlun Mountain as well.
The disciples arrived at the gates of Jade Void Palace and began wailing loudly.
Inside Jade Void Palace, Yuanshi had just helped Taiqing stabilize his injuries. Hearing his disciples wailing outside Jade Void Palace, he waved his hand and opened the gates.
"All of you, come in!"
Upon hearing this, the disciples outside Jade Void Palace rose to their feet and entered the main hall. Once inside, Guang Chengzi tearfully said, "Master, our treasure vaults were all robbed by those Western bald donkeys. We beg you to seek justice for us!"
Yuanshi was slightly stunned by those words.
"All of your treasures were stolen by those Western bald donkeys?"
The disciples all nodded. Tai Yi spoke up, "Master, we are not deceiving you. Look."
Taiyi Zhenren took out a Sarira. The moment Yuanshi saw it, he became furious. "The Two Sages of the West truly have some nerve. They actually dared to steal your treasures."
However, just as Yuanshi finished speaking, White Crane Disciple's voice came from afar.
"Master, this is bad! All the Dharma treasures and spiritual roots in the treasure vault are gone!"
Hearing White Crane Disciple's voice, Yuanshi's heart sank. "Not good!"
With that, Yuanshi's figure flashed, and he instantly appeared inside the treasure vault. When he saw that it was completely empty, Yuanshi flew into a rage.
"Two Sages of the West, I will never rest until one of us is dead!"
Meanwhile, Taiqing returned to the Eight Scenery Palace and headed for the pill chamber. Upon entering, he found it utterly empty.
Taiqing's fury instantly soared to its peak. "Who? Who did this?!"
"Aaaah!"
As Taiqing roared in rage, he spotted a Sarira on the ground.
"Two Sages of the West, you truly have some nerve. You actually dared to steal my pills. I will make you pay the price."
As his voice fell, Taiqing flew into the void. "Second Brother, come with your elder brother to the West!"
Inside Jade Void Palace, Yuanshi heard Taiqing's words and immediately flew into the void as well. Seeing that his elder brother's expression was wrong—
He instantly guessed what had happened. "Elder Brother, were your treasures stolen too?"
