Chapter 44

Immediately possessing a new mystic vein……

A mystic vein with divine power!?

Jasmine's few words were like a bolt of thunder to Yun Che, who was desperately seeking a way to repair his mystic vein. He had promised Xiao Lengxi and Xiao Lie that he would return within three years… and he, who clearly knew the state of his mystic vein, was fully aware that repairing it within three years and obtaining the power to surpass the Xiao family was an almost unattainable goal. The reason he made such a promise was to push himself to the limit… because only such pressure could make him break through his limits under immense pressure.

Now, Jasmine was clearly saying… that she could let him immediately possess a new mystic vein! Moreover, it was a mystic vein with divine power!

He didn't understand what "divine power" meant, but just the four words "new mystic vein" made his heart tremble uncontrollably. Suppressing the waves in his heart, he stared intently at Jasmine's eyes and said, "What you said… is it true?"

"Would this princess lie to you?" The girl's fair face was full of pride.

Yun Che was speechless… Indeed, with her terrifying power that even the King Mystic Realm didn't take seriously, why would she bother to deceive a cripple like him! To make someone possess a new mystic vein in a short time was, in the eyes of ordinary people, and even in the eyes of Yun Che, the "divine doctor," completely a fairy tale. But when Jasmine said those words, her eyes were clear, and her posture was proud, leaving no trace of lying.

However, she had red hair that shouldn't belong to a human of the Heavenly Mystic Continent, she was young but had terrifying mystic power, and the poison in her body was something even he, with the Heavenly Poison Pearl, had never heard of… Were there few "fairy tales" about her?

Perhaps, she really had some unique method to let him obtain a new mystic vein in a short time… If it could really be achieved, then he would have a ten-thousand-fold confidence to fulfill his promise to Xiao Lie and Xiao Lengxi.

Thinking of this, Yun Che's gaze became burning: "Alright… then tell me, what are the three conditions you want me to agree to?"

Jasmine knew he would absolutely not refuse. Without much ado, she directly said, "The first condition is that you must agree to find three things for this princess… They are: one Yomi Brahman Flower, three mystic cores of mystic beasts no lower than the Tyrant Mystic Realm, and… at least seventy pounds of Purple Vein Divine Crystal!"

Yun Che listened very carefully… When Jasmine mentioned the "Yomi Brahman Flower," he frowned. He had heard his master mention the "Yomi Brahman Flower," but he had never seen it. His master once told him that the Yomi Brahman Flower was the most yin and evil spirit in the world, growing only in the most yin and cold places, with purple-black stems and leaves. It took twenty-four years to bloom once, and when it bloomed, the flowers were an extremely alluring bright purple, with light purple mist swirling around the petals, which faintly emitted the sound of ghosts crying and laughing when the mist moved. The flower would wither after three days, and the next bloom would be twenty-four years later.

As for the effects of the Yomi Brahman Flower, his master didn't mention, only saying that once a mortal approached, they would be invaded by yin energy, causing them to faint for a long time or even die.

Going to the most yin and cold place to find a flower that blooms once every twenty-four years and could cause death if approached… Yun Che frowned, but he didn't have an overly strong reaction. If Jasmine could really give him a new mystic vein, such a request wasn't too much…

But the second thing Jasmine mentioned almost made him lose his voice…

Three mystic cores of mystic beasts no lower than the Tyrant Mystic Realm!! Are you kidding me!?

What was the Tyrant Mystic Realm? It was a legendary realm, a realm that countless mystic practitioners could not reach, a realm they couldn't even glimpse. Throughout the entire Azure Wind Empire, one could find a few King Mystic Realm practitioners, but not a single Tyrant Mystic Realm practitioner! King Mystic Realm practitioners were called "Thrones," while Tyrant Mystic Realm practitioners were called "Tyrant Emperors," symbolizing that once they reached this realm, they would be the absolute rulers of their domain, invincible!

Not to mention the current Azure Wind Empire, in the entire millennium, the Azure Wind Empire had never produced a Tyrant Mystic Realm supreme expert.

And this Jasmine, with a flick of her pink lips, demanded three mystic cores of mystic beasts no lower than the Tyrant Mystic Realm! To obtain these three mystic cores, one would have to kill three Tyrant Mystic Beasts! Finding these three Tyrant Mystic Beasts was secondary… Throughout the Azure Wind Empire, who could provoke a Tyrant Mystic Beast?

One step above the King Mystic Realm was a leap to the heavens. Five Level 10 King Mystic Realm practitioners could not match a Level 1 Tyrant Mystic Realm practitioner. In other words, all the King Mystic Realm practitioners in the Azure Wind Empire combined could not deal with a single Tyrant Mystic Beast. Three mystic cores of mystic beasts no lower than the Tyrant Mystic Realm… The leaders of the four major sects would likely fly into a rage upon hearing this requirement.

And the third thing Jasmine mentioned almost made Yun Che fall to the ground in shock.

At least seventy pounds of Purple Vein Divine Crystal… It was Purple Vein Divine Crystal, not Purple Vein Celestial Crystal! Purple Vein Celestial Crystal was a rare treasure of the world, a fingernail-sized piece of Purple Vein Celestial Crystal was worth a fortune, and only the largest sects could possess it, while ordinary mystic practitioners could only dream of it. Purple Vein Divine Crystal was extracted from Purple Vein Celestial Crystal, and a house-sized piece of Purple Vein Celestial Crystal could only extract a fingernail-sized piece of Purple Vein Divine Crystal.

So, seventy pounds of Purple Vein Divine Crystal…

"~!@#￥%……"

Yun Che had reason to believe that the entire Heavenly Mystic Continent combined might not have seventy pounds of Purple Vein Divine Crystal. And if there were really this amount of Purple Vein Divine Crystal, its value would be enough to buy at least three Azure Wind Empires!

"You… are sure… you… are not… joking?" Yun Che's words were punctuated by gasps. He was certain that anyone in the Azure Wind Empire who heard this requirement would be so shocked they couldn't speak coherently.

Jasmine's face showed no hint of joking. She said coldly, "The poison has seeped into my soul, and even the Heavenly Poison Pearl would take several years to completely purify it. After the poison in my body is gone, I must reshape my body. These three things are essential for me to reshape my body, and none can be missing!"

"… Time?"

"Thirty years!"

Thirty years? This time finally made Yun Che breathe a small sigh of relief, and he slowly nodded, "Alright! I agree to this condition!"

Nonsense! Thirty years, plenty of time, of course, he would agree first. As for the Yomi Brahman Flower, the mystic cores of Tyrant Mystic Beasts, and seventy pounds of Purple Vein Divine Crystal… there were still thirty years! He would take it one step at a time.

"What about the second condition?" Yun Che held his breath and asked. The first condition was already terrifying; the second might be even more brutal.

"The second condition is that you must reach the Sovereign Mystic Realm within thirty years!" Jasmine still stared directly at Yun Che's expression, speaking slowly and clearly.

"~!@#￥%%……" Yun Che suddenly had the urge to press this little girl to the ground and give her a good spanking!

He increasingly began to suspect that this little girl was just messing with him!!

"I don't know about the Heavenly Mystic Continent… but throughout the history of the Azure Wind Empire, no one has ever reached the Sovereign Mystic Realm within thirty years… to be more precise, no one has ever reached the Sovereign Mystic Realm." Yun Che said seriously. However, the slight twitching of his lips still revealed his inner indignation.

"Then do you agree or not?" Jasmine raised an eyebrow.

"Agree, of course, I agree!" Yun Che responded without hesitation, his face composed, his eyes showing extreme calm and tranquility: "Your first condition made me a bit nervous. But this condition is not really a condition for me. The reason I said that no one in the history of the Azure Wind Empire has ever reached the Sovereign Mystic Realm within thirty years is to show that if given the same starting point, I would overturn the history of the Azure Wind Empire! With the Heavenly Poison Pearl in me, if I lose to anyone in the Azure Wind Empire, then I would truly be… a waste of space!"

"Reaching the Sovereign Mystic Realm within thirty years… is not a pipe dream!" Yun Che's eyes half-closed, his voice as calm as water.

He thought that by saying such passionate and inspiring words, this little girl would look at him with a different light in her eyes, but to his disappointment, Jasmine merely nodded slightly. He asked somewhat dejectedly, "But why do you want me to reach the Sovereign Mystic Realm within thirty years?"

"Human vitality is directly related to mystic power. My current phantom life is derived from your vitality. To reshape my body and perfectly maintain my previous strength, I must have at least the vitality of the Sovereign Mystic Realm!" Jasmine said calmly.

Yun Che nodded somewhat understandingly… then his heart suddenly jolted…

At least the vitality of the Sovereign Mystic Realm was needed to make the reshaped body and soul integrate and maintain the original strength… then, then it means… her previous strength…

Was even above the Sovereign Mystic Realm!?!?

No! Impossible! Absolutely impossible! It must be a misunderstanding! Yun Che shook his head, trying to dispel this absurd and laughable conjecture.

When Jasmine's gaze fell back on him, it had become serious and proud: "The third condition… kneel and kowtow, and take me as your master!"

"…"

"…………"

Yun Che looked at her, unable to utter a word for a long time.

"Unwilling?" Jasmine raised an eyebrow, her beautiful and innocent face covered with a layer of intimidating authority.

"… How old are you this year?" Yun Che asked with a conflicted expression.

Jasmine's eyes narrowed slightly but still answered him: "Thirteen years old."

"Thirteen… years…" This answer, which perfectly matched her appearance, made Yun Che's heart tremble and groan: Thirteen years! Damn! She really is only thirteen years old! With such terrifying mystic power, such mature mentality and posture, and such old-fashioned speech, I thought she was a few hundred years old… She really is only thirteen years old!!

But then Yun Che thought about it, and his heart suddenly felt much lighter… If she really is only thirteen years old, then no matter how terrifying her mystic power, no matter how noble and mysterious her background, no matter how cruel and proud she is, no matter how mature her mentality… she can have at most thirteen years of experience! I have the memories of two lifetimes, dealing with her would be a piece of cake! No matter how strong and domineering she is, she is still just a little girl who hasn't grown up.

"Is it because you know this princess is only thirteen years old that you suddenly feel this princess is much easier to deal with?" Jasmine narrowed her star-like eyes, speaking coldly.

Her words hit Yun Che right in the heart. Yun Che quickly shook his head: "How could that be. The reason I asked about your age is to tell you that I am sixteen years old, three years older than you. You are younger than me, so it's a bit… inappropriate for you to be my master, right?"

"Age?" Jasmine sneered: "The strongest on this continent would not even glance at this princess even if they knelt before her for ten years. This princess is now offering to become your master, which is a favor to you, and you still want to refuse?"

"…" Her words were so grand that they left Yun Che breathless.

Yun Che made a quick decision and nodded: "Alright, I can take you as my master, but I will not kowtow to you."

"Reason." Jasmine said calmly.

"I can kneel to elders, to benefactors… even to my wife, but I cannot kneel to a little girl I've only known for a few days. This is the basic dignity of a man!" Yun Che shook his head, his voice resolute.

"Hehe…" Jasmine laughed, a beautiful laugh like a blooming jasmine flower, but her voice was cold and sinister: "This is not up to you!"

As she spoke, Jasmine's right hand had already grabbed Yun Che's shoulder… Instantly, Yun Che felt as if a mountain was pressing down on him, and under the irresistible force, his knees bent, and he heavily knelt on the ground, in front of Jasmine.

"You!" Yun Che's face showed anger, and he tried to stand up… but in the face of Jasmine's power, he had no ability to resist at all. Even with all his strength, he could not lift his body even a bit.

"Kneel and kowtow to this princess immediately, and this princess will officially become your master. Not only will I replace your mystic vein, but I will also guide your mystic cultivation path."

As he struggled, Yun Che heard Jasmine's cold and proud voice in his ear. He shook his head forcefully and said in a low voice, "You… give up! Even if I don't want the mystic vein… I will never… kowtow to a little girl… uh!!"

Before Yun Che could finish his sentence, a heavy force pressed his upper body to the ground. Jasmine lifted her snow-white foot, like a lotus, and stepped on Yun Che's shoulder. With a slight effort, there was a "crack" as the bones dislocated, and Yun Che's head, which was raised, was forcefully slammed into the cold ground… completing the kowtow ceremony.

Jasmine's small foot continued to step on Yun Che's shoulder without moving. She crossed her arms and said mockingly, "Do you think your bones are hard and you are great? Without strength, you don't even have the ability to refuse to kowtow to me. What qualifications do you have to be proud in front of me? Without strength, your so-called dignity and pride are just a joke in front of an absolute strong person!"

Jasmine's words were like a bucket of cold water, ruthlessly poured over Yun Che's head, leaving him stunned. Then, he laughed, silently laughing at himself… Yes, without strength, what qualifications do you have to talk about dignity and pride… My proud appearance just now must have been extremely laughable in Jasmine's eyes…

"Although unwilling, you have finally kowtowed. From now on, this princess
