Chapter 3179: No Problem

After Jiang Yunmo finished speaking, Ye Liuyun fully understood that Jiang Yunmo had hardened his wings and was about to draw a firm line with him.

The proposals Jiang Yunmo put forward essentially cancelled all of their cooperation; what remained was mutual exploitation. As for the hundred‑thousand troops, she definitely intends to gradually wrest the command away. She probably thinks Ye Liuyun lacks resources and will eventually be unable to sustain that army, so she will hand it over to her sooner or later.

But he was completely indifferent. He never relied on Jiang Yunmo at all.

Ye Liuyun immediately nodded and replied, "No problem, I can agree to everything you said. Just give me the merchant guild's price directly; I don't want to come back here again."

It was only a merchant guild, and Ye Liuyun didn't mind much; as long as their quote wasn't lower than the guild's current resource price, he would accept it.

"Then I'll act on behalf of those noble families, paying Young Master Ye ten times the merchant guild's current resources, converted into Primordial Power—how does that sound?"

Jiang Yunmo, seeing his eager agreement and fearing he might harbor resentment that could cause the stationed troops to trouble her later, also quoted a high price.

"Good!" Ye Liuyun hadn't expected her to offer such a high price, and he immediately accepted.

"It seems that now Jiang Yunmo has her own army and territory, the dynasty must have taken notice and granted her considerable resources," Ye Liuyun thought to himself.

Jiang Yunmo was secretly pleased, feeling her goals had been achieved; she promptly handed over the bloodline technique, ten virtual‑tier weapons, and a hundred Xing Xi origins to Ye Liuyun, thereby first dissolving the Divine Soul Contract with him.

She then had Wei Yushan tally all the merchant guild's existing resources to prepare Primordial Power for Ye Liuyun. In the end she added over ten thousand units of Primordial Power and bought Wei Yushan outright, fearing Ye Liuyun might later use Wei Yushan to impersonate her.

Ye Liuyun merely smiled, agreed, collected the resources, and then left without further words.

He felt he had made a huge profit. He gave the ten virtual‑tier weapons to Yu Xiaofeng and other Leaders, and kept the Xing Xi origins for his own cultivation.

When selling the guild's Primordial Power, he sent half of it to Yu Xiaofeng, to be reserved for the Death Legion's strengthening.

He then informed Cui Daoran, explaining that he and Jiang Yunmo were now unrelated, and told him that the people they had left behind need not be polite—feel free to request cultivation resources from Jiang Yunmo, and be wary of her in the future so she doesn't absorb everyone.

He trusted that, given Cui Daoran's shrewdness, the cultivation resources for their five hundred members would never be lacking, and they wouldn't let Jiang Yunmo lead them by the nose.

He glanced briefly at that virtual‑tier bloodline technique and immediately recognized its significance, seeing it could greatly aid everyone, so as soon as he left the Princess's residence, he began studying the method.

The technique is called Hundred‑Refined Divine Blood, covering the bloodline's circulation pathways, condensation and enhancement methods, and integration with other forces.

However, the text does not present a complete set of circulation pathways; instead it describes nearly a hundred different bloodline traits and explains how to select and refine pathways for each, requiring cultivators to adapt them to their own bloodline characteristics.

For Ye Liuyun, although he cannot practice it directly, it greatly expands his understanding of various bloodline powers and their traits, aiding his insight into both his own and others' bloodline abilities.

He had originally intended to go straight to Jiang Yuntian, but for now he had to abandon that plan, return to rendezvous with his Second Clone, and speak after he had refined the bloodline pathways.

After returning, he first transmitted the method to the Monster Beast and the women, letting each choose a suitable approach based on their bloodline traits for improvement. Only then did he begin refining his own bloodline pathways.

His bloodline is the War God bloodline, which demands not only strong burst power but also endurance in prolonged combat. When adjusting the pathways, he also had to consider future condensation and enhancement.

Thus, he made a substantial overhaul this time, first rebuilding the main conduit of bloodline circulation, then linking the side veins to the Sea of Consciousness, the Nascent Core, and the Physical Body, fusing all four forces.

The bloodline pathway connected to the Nascent Core can later be tempered and enhanced with Divine Core, Heaven and Earth Power, thunder, and Golden Crow Holy Fire; the pathway linked to the Physical Body can be tempered with Buddha Demon Power; the pathway linked to the Soul can be tempered with Nether Ghost Fire.

He even deliberately constructed a channel linking the bloodline to the toxin source in his heart, so that if poisoned, the toxin source could promptly detoxify him.

After the modifications, not only was his original bloodline power stronger and its bursts more potent, but even his War God Armor emitted a spiritual awareness ripple, indicating his bloodline power had increased by another thirty percent.

Moreover, his bloodline now circulates within his body continuously, automatically employing various forces for tempering and enhancement, so its quality will keep rising.

Ye Liuyun immediately recruited two Return to One Nine Layers Late Stage masters for testing and found that his full‑burst bloodline power could suppress their realms down to Return to One Eight Layers Early Stage. They didn't even need his intervention; the two were already doomed.

The boost in bloodline power goes far beyond merely suppressing opponents; it also accelerates his overall cultivation speed, offering endless long‑term benefits,

Ye Liuyun's bloodline power has finally become one of his trump cards.

"I wonder how noticeable the effect is after those Jiang princes and princesses practice this technique. At the very least, someone as clever as Jiang Yuntian could probably devise a bloodline circulation method suited to himself if he obtained it."

Ye Liuyun surmised that the royal family possesses only this powerful technique, will treat it as a lifeline, possibly study it more deeply than he has, and perhaps discover even more potent applications.

He knew that bloodline attack methods are harder to guard against than Soul attacks. Accordingly, he specifically consulted his War God Armor, which can block thirty percent of attacks that others launch against him using bloodline power.

In the end, to be safe, Ye Liuyun still spent time deliberately cultivating a method to absorb others' bloodline power. According to the Hundred‑Refined Divine Blood technique, to boost his own bloodline power with this method he must have far stronger bloodline power than his opponent; otherwise he would absorb little.

He didn't necessarily have to use this method to absorb others' bloodline power, but once mastered, if the opponent tried to absorb his, he could employ the method to resist their absorption.

Later he had Chi Lian practice with him. However, his bloodline power now far exceeds Chi Lian's, so Chi Lian could barely absorb anything; when Ye Liuyun activated the absorption technique, it actually drew some of Chi Lian's bloodline, forcing him to stop immediately.
