Cultivators at the Wizarding Academy

Chapter 212 The Value of a Divine Being

End of the meeting.

Tai'an called out to the Hundred Flowers Swordsman Tinyham, who was about to leave, and took out the pills he had stored in advance from his spatial ring.

He gives one to each of his followers, and he doesn't favor one over the other.

Tinyham looked at the brown pill in his palm with suspicion: "This is..."

"You can use these cultivation resources yourself or sell them to the academy. Remember to specify that they are Breakthrough Pills, which can be exchanged for about a thousand gold coins."

"What are its effects?"

"Increasing lifespan by three years and accumulating qi and blood will have a certain promoting effect on the sublimation of battle qi."

Tiniham realized the value of the pill in his hand.

If what Tai'an said is true, it can definitely be called a high-level cultivation resource, and its value far exceeds the meaning of money.

He chose to swallow it without hesitation, partly to show his loyalty and trust, and partly because he thought highly of the young master's character.

Like swallowing lead and mercury, the outer layer of the elixir that slid into the stomach began to melt, releasing a large amount of essence.

Tiniham felt his blood circulation accelerate, and his battle aura surge even more powerfully. He nodded slightly, confirming the effectiveness of the Breakthrough Pill.

"Young Master, what are your orders?"

"Nothing for now! If anything happens, my three-eyed raven clone will contact you..."

Tiniham bowed deeply to Tai'an's departing figure.

Under the clear night sky, the magic vehicle sped by.

Silver Moon and Dorothy took turns driving, while Tai'an took turns enjoying lap pillows and being fed delicious food.

There are no traffic jams when flying, and travel is always in a straight line. Traveling at supersonic speeds, it can cover approximately 1,500 kilometers per hour. Theoretically, it would only take five hours to travel from the central kingdom to the Belland family's territory.

"Xiao An, is the demon powerful?" Silver Moon roughly locked onto the direction and occasionally looked back at the back seat.

"You'd better not mess with them!" Tai'an yawned. "You can't beat any of them."

"How many did you hit this time?" Yin Yue pouted.

Tai'an did not answer, staring blankly at the starry sky passing overhead.

A sleepless night, the wind howling coldly.

The knight girl sat alone on the edge of the cliff, tears silently streaming down her face. Resigning might allow her to escape responsibility, but it wouldn't lessen the oppression in her heart. The heavy casualties suffered by the Royal Guard were undeniable. Her unicorn companion had fallen in battle, and even the powerful Saint-level warrior Rhodes and the legion's banner, the black dragon Landius, had not escaped.

The reorganized Royal Guard is practically defunct.

Fortunately, there was still victory to cover up the truth.

"Why is that?" Hathaway raised the back of her hand to wipe her red eyes, silently asking herself the question.

They themselves suffered a fate far worse than death. They lost their limbs and became food for demons.

If it weren't for that man...

The image of him rampaging across the battlefield flashed before my eyes, displaying his immense power to turn the tide of battle single-handedly.

Hathaway seemed to understand something.

All unfavorable situations stem from the inadequacy of the parties involved.

If I had possessed the strength of a Saint Realm expert back then, and could have fully utilized the power of the Golden Osmanthus Sword, perhaps things wouldn't have turned out this way.

"Everyone encounters failures as they grow! Miss's life has been too smooth." Rhodes accompanied Deyulan as they walked through the camp. "Now that she has relinquished her responsibilities, she can focus on her cultivation. No amount of fame or fortune is as meaningful as becoming a Saint."

"You're right!" De Yulan nodded in agreement, his gaze clicking as he scrutinized Rhodes.

Having lost the Black Dragon Landius, he naturally no longer held the title of Dragon Knight, and his past sharpness and arrogance had become much more subdued.

"God, what exactly happened?" Rhodes got to the point.

De Yulan pondered for a moment: "What aspects do you want to know?"

"His true identity."

"Tai'an, heir to the Blue Rose family."

"It was him!" Rhodes's expression changed with realization. The Blue Rose family's table-flipping incident had caused quite a stir. Anyone who interacted with the outside world would surely have heard about it: "Second question, were his achievements exaggerated?"

"Some parts have been artistically embellished, but overall it is true," De Juran replied cautiously.

Rhodes was incredulous: "Destroyed a hundred Hellfire Legions in a minute, and killed more than ten Demon Generals in succession?"

"Yes! Many members of the Academy Expeditionary Force have personally confirmed this." De Yulan nodded affirmatively.

"A god-like being, is he really that powerful? He treats ordinary Saints like dirt?" Rhodes' expression was dejected. What use is endless resurrection if you can't even withstand a single attack? Going in is just a waste of time.

"You should know that the Sanctuary is just a broad concept, just like the relationship between people," Deyulan sighed meaningfully.

These ordinary Saint-level beings are like toddlers encountering adults before a god. There's no suspense in the battle; even their numbers wouldn't necessarily be effective.

"Alright! It might be a bit abrupt, but Duke Golden Laurel has indeed asked me to pay attention to the issue of the propagation of the divine beings," Rhodes explained his purpose.

History has proven the necessity of bloodline optimization, as the descendants of the strong possess talents far surpassing those of ordinary people.

The cultivation bottlenecks that exist for ordinary people pose no obstacle whatsoever for the descendants of the strong. Their cultivation progresses naturally, allowing them to reach the elite and super-elite levels.

As the pinnacle of human power, the divine beings also symbolize the ultimate bloodline and have always been coveted by all sides. Their value in reproduction is countless times greater than that of breeding dragons.

A Black Dragon Landius might only earn a few thousand gold coins per breeding session. A god-like being, on the other hand, could easily earn tens of thousands of gold coins per breeding session.

While the kingdom's upper echelons were still weighing the losses suffered by the allied forces, the kingdom's top leadership had already set their sights on bloodline optimization.

Only power is the foundation of nobility. Only bloodline endures forever.

Tai'an suddenly sneezed several times.

"Xiaoqian, it's your turn to drive now!" Yinyue turned around with bright eyes.

"You drive it! Wait until I get back to drive it for you, otherwise it'll be hard to calculate," Dorothy persuaded Silvermoon.

We arrived at Baiyanshan campsite at around 5 a.m., just before sunrise.

Tai'an personally directed the final leg of the journey.

"Whoa!" Silver Moon piloted the magic vehicle down from the sky.

Recently, many people have left the campsite, so there's no shortage of parking spaces.

The monk on night duty discovered that the three people in the car were all spellcasters, but did not conduct a thorough investigation.

"Xiao An, where's your tent?"

"I don't live in tents, I live in caves."

"Take me to see this quickly."

Tai'an led the two little girls down the rugged mountain path in the dark.

The reason I chose it was because of its remote location.

Yin Yue accidentally stepped into the air and almost tumbled down, but luckily Tai An reacted quickly and grabbed her arm, pulling her into his embrace.

"Xiao An, put me down, I can walk by myself."

"Take it easy, or I won't be responsible if you fall again."

"You won't just abandon me..."

Yu Lin, who was on night duty, vaguely heard voices. She pushed open the curtain at the entrance of the cave and looked up at the path above her.

"Young Master."
