In contrast to the strange curse power of the dark wooden box, the item within was supremely immortal and sacred.
It was a root segment resembling green jade, looking like a small white jade Dragon, with a Dragon head, Dragon body, Dragon claws, and a Dragon tail.
Though clearly a plant root, it truly resembled a white jade carved Dragon.
"That… that is…"
An experienced old Source Master's mind exploded with a boom, and he gasped in disbelief.
"Immortal… Immortal Root, this is a segment of an Immortal Medicine's root!"
Upon hearing the old Source Master's incredulous exclamation, the entire venue fell silent in an instant.
Everyone's eyes widened, staring at the root segment in the dark wooden box, which resembled a green jade carved Dragon.
"Immortal… Immortal Root?"
A Cultivator stammered, his voice somewhat choked.
What the old Source Master spoke of was the root of an Immortal Medicine.
It was an Immortal Medicine!
Not a Half-Immortal Medicine!
Although Half-Immortal Medicine also contained the word "Immortal" and was extremely rare and precious, even so, it was incomparable to a true Immortal Medicine!
This was the root of a true Immortal Medicine, not the root of a Half-Immortal Medicine!
"My heavens, it's truly an Immortal Medicine!"
"In my lifetime, I've actually seen a true Immortal Medicine!"
"Although it's just a remnant root segment of an Immortal Medicine, it's still an Immortal Medicine!"
The entire Heavenly Ranking Garden, with countless Cultivators, erupted in a clamor that shook the heavens.
Immortal Medicine is hard to find in the world.
Its value simply cannot be measured by Immortal Source.
It is a priceless treasure; no one would sell an Immortal Medicine.
Just then, the small white jade Dragon in the wooden box suddenly moved, transforming into a divine rainbow, attempting to escape directly.
"My goodness, as expected of an Immortal Medicine's root, it truly behaves like a living creature!"
Seeing this scene, many people were even more amazed by the profoundness of the Immortal Medicine.
Jun Xiaoyao smiled faintly, raising his hand to suppress it, finally letting it settle in his palm.
At this moment, countless eyes were intensely fixated on Jun Xiaoyao.
The heat in their gazes seemed capable of melting Jun Xiaoyao.
"This young friend, sell me the Immortal Root! I am willing to give up ten ore veins!"
"Get lost! Ten ore veins? Are you trying to bribe a beggar? Young friend, give me this Immortal Root, and I am willing to exchange it for an Emperor Weapon!"
"You get lost! Trading an Emperor Weapon for an Immortal Medicine's root? You're dreaming! This young brother, sell me the Immortal Root, just name your price!"
"This young friend, I have three daughters, young and beautiful. I wonder if you are interested?"
"Get lost, you old geezer!"
A crowd of people clamored and scrambled, vying for Jun Xiaoyao.
Among them were many Sect Masters of great sects, patriarchs of ancient Dao lineages, and Sect Masters of various factions.
Even when facing the embryonic form of a Sacred Spirit before, they had not lost their composure to such an extent.
While that item was precious, to true powerhouses, it was somewhat like a chicken rib—flavorless when eaten, yet a pity to discard.
But faced with the Immortal Medicine's root, they could not remain calm.
This item held immense allure even for Great Emperors.
Eventually, even the high-ranking members of the three great Source Arts Families were alarmed and came to this place.
Seeing the scene, they were stunned and dumbfounded.
Meanwhile, Jiang Yi's expression was blank.
His veins bulged, and his face turned a bluish-purple.
His body trembled.
"A remnant Immortal Root, how could this be…"
Jiang Yi's expression became incredibly grim.
He had examined this cursed stone before.
However, even with his Earth Master lineage's Source Arts and Earth Extremity Yin Eyes, he found it difficult to see through the dark wooden box.
Naturally, he did not know that a remnant Immortal Root was sealed within.
But if even he couldn't see it, how did Jun Xiaoyao?
Was it simply by luck?
Even a fool would know that Jun Xiaoyao couldn't have relied on luck.
Cai Shiyun was also somewhat dazed. She looked at Jun Xiaoyao and subconsciously asked, "Young Master Jun, didn't you say you knew nothing about Source Arts?"
Jun Xiaoyao heard this and smiled faintly, "At that time, when you asked me, I indeed knew nothing about Source Arts."
"And after that, I briefly studied the so-called Source Arts, and I suppose I've entered the inner sanctum now."
Upon hearing this, Cai Shiyun was dumbfounded.
This is called entering the inner sanctum?
One must know that even a Great Master of Source Arts wouldn't dare to cut open this cursed stone, much less be certain of what was inside.
Yet, Jun Xiaoyao directly cut out an Immortal Root.
This "entering the inner sanctum" was far too profound, leaving Cai Shiyun feeling ashamed.
The Dao of Source Arts is extremely profound.
Jun Xiaoyao, just by learning a few tricks, was countless times stronger than these so-called Source Arts Geniuses.
Compared to Jun Xiaoyao, what kind of Source Arts Geniuses were they?
Even Jiang Yi, who had obtained the Earth Master Legacy, was merely so-so.
Jun Xiaoyao's act of cutting out the remnant Immortal Root caused a sensation throughout the Western Extremity Ancient City.
However, Jun Xiaoyao himself shook his head slightly, feeling a bit regretful.
If it were a true Immortal Medicine, perhaps he would have been delighted.
This remnant Immortal Root was still incomparable to a true Immortal Medicine.
But regardless, it was still quite good.
If he were to water it with the Ten Thousand Medicines Treasure Body blood obtained from Song Miaoyu, perhaps its medicinal efficacy would be even stronger, assisting Jun Xiaoyao in his Physical Body Breakthrough.
"There's truly no suspense now."
Many Cultivators had already confirmed that from the moment the remnant Immortal Root was cut out, Jiang Yi's defeat was sealed.
This was a supreme treasure that even the embryonic form of a Sacred Spirit could not compare to.
Let alone others, even Jiang Yi himself could not utter any words of rebuttal.
If he were to renege again, he would only appear more like a clown.
"It seems I've won this stone gambling. Young Lord Jiang Yi, I accept your concession."
Jun Xiaoyao's tone was calm, remaining so from beginning to end. For him, it was like a game.
In contrast, Jiang Yi, who had been jumping up and down when he had the upper hand, now looked as if he had lost his parents.
Even Cai Shiyun frowned upon seeing him.
Her impression of Jiang Yi also plummeted.
Indeed, Jiang Yi's mindset was truly collapsing now.
Five ore veins!
For the Jiang Family, this was not just a minor loss, but absolutely a huge bleeding.
But going back on his word was impossible.
Reneging in front of so many people, not just Jiang Yi, but even the entire Jiang Family, would be criticized into seclusion.
For Source Masters, integrity is very important.
No one would deal with a Source Master who lacked integrity.
So, no matter how unwilling Jiang Yi was, he could only grit his teeth and swallow this bitter fruit.
"I'll honor the bet. Those five ore veins will be given to you."
Jiang Yi uttered with difficulty, through gritted teeth.
Some members of the Jiang Family present also looked extremely grim, as disgusted as if they had eaten a fly.
What disgusted them wasn't Jun Xiaoyao, but their own Young Lord, Jiang Yi.
If he wanted to play the pig to eat the tiger, just playing it to slap Wu De's face would have been enough.
But he had to provoke a great god, ultimately losing both face and fortune, and dragging the Jiang Family's face down with him.
What kind of situation was this?
However, what Jun Xiaoyao said next was even more devastating.
"These five ore veins aren't much to me. Immortal Fairy Shiyun, how about I give you three?"
"Wh… what, give me…"
Cai Shiyun's head spun; she almost fainted from this windfall.
It proves that if you can't impress a goddess, there are only two reasons: you're not handsome enough, or you're not rich enough.
