Chapter 165: Captive
At this moment, Wang Yi had already understood everything. Although it sounded complicated, the logic was actually very simple. It could be summarized in one sentence.
The first three stages of the Connate realm strengthened the Connate Body. This was in preparation for the special realm, where one would receive the power of the world and condense the physical Dharma Idol.
Seeing that Wang Yi had no more questions, Venerable Ning Jing picked up the tea in front of her again and chuckled. “I’ll use this tea as wine to toast Fellow Daoist Wang.”
“Cheers to our sincere cooperation that allowed us to kill three Connate experts from the Yang God Race and severely injure the physical Dharma Idol of a peak Yang God expert.”
When Wang Yi heard this, he also raised his teacup and clinked it with Venerable Ning Jing’s. Then, he smiled and said, “Let’s celebrate the prosperity of the human race. Many powerful enemies have died. May our human race achieve eternal peace.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the two of them smiled knowingly and finished the tea in their cups at the same time.
Wang Yi filled the empty cups in front of the two of them with tea again. Then, he changed the topic and said with a smile, “However, there’s something that Fellow Daoist Ning Jing was wrong about. I need to correct it.”
Venerable Ning Jing raised her eyebrows in surprise. She did not know what Wang Yi meant and said in surprise, “Fellow Daoist Wang, please enlighten me.”
Wang Yi shook his head and chuckled. “Fellow Daoist Ning Jing, you’re too polite. This doesn’t count as enlightenment.”
After saying that, he stretched out two fingers and continued, “Strictly speaking, you and I have only killed two Connate experts of the Yang God Race today.”
Gasp!
When Venerable Ning Jing heard this, she instantly stood up as if she had thought of something unbelievable. Her eyes were filled with shock and horror.
Her red lips parted slightly, and her breathing became noticeably heavier as if she had been surprised by her own guess. Only one thought remained in her mind.
No way!
If it was really as she had guessed, the results of today’s battle would definitely be considered an unprecedented victory.
Being able to determine the current situation of the human race in the Langya Domain played a key role in determining the final outcome.
Venerable Ning Jing seemed to be seeking confirmation, but she was afraid that Wang Yi’s answer was not what she wanted. She asked carefully, “Fellow Daoist Wang Yi, what do you mean?”
Seeing Venerable Ning Jing like this, Wang Yi couldn’t help but reveal a faint smile. He said directly, “I believe Fellow Daoist Ning Jing already has a guess in your heart.”
The moment he finished speaking…
The three-layered cage appeared in Wang Yi’s palm and expanded with the wind, instantly revealing the unconscious Elder Sharp Wing.
Wang Yi still had a faint smile on his face as he continued, “This is the Connate expert of the Yang God Race who led me out of the city.”
“Speaking of which, it’s because of the destiny of the human race that I was lucky enough to severe the other party’s Connate Phala and capture him alive.”
Although Venerable Ning Jing already had a guess in her heart, she still felt extremely shocked when the truth was laid right in front of her.
Even with Venerable Ning Jing’s status, as well as her state of mind after observing the ups and downs of this mortal world, her expression still involuntarily changed at this moment.
After all, the implications of this matter were too great. If Wang Yi could consider it, she could also consider it. If Wang Yi could not, she could still consider it.
The significance of capturing a Yang God Connate expert alive was not just on paper.
The human race could not always be in a defensive position. They couldn’t let the Yang God Race invade and kill as they pleased.
After all, the human race was not a pushover. After so many years of cultivation, their strength and foundation had already reached an unimaginable level.
Otherwise, since the strength of the beast race was not weak, with their huge numbers and reproduction speed, if the human race did not have any trump cards, they would have long been eaten up.
Perhaps in the near future, they would be able to use this captured Yang God Connate expert as a breakthrough point and find a way to invade the Yang God World.
This way, they could kill two birds with one stone. Not only could they stop the enemy, but they could also divert the internal conflict with the beast race and direct the flames of war to the other world.
From now on, it was very likely that the human race would go from being attacked from the front and back to attacking two races.
The gains and losses of the human race were naturally debatable.
Or course, all of this was just for later. Right now, the most important thing was to interrogate this Yang God expert and get the information they needed.
Venerable Ning Jing wanted to finish this in one go and eliminate the Yang God Race hidden in the Langya Domain as soon as possible.
As for what Wang Yi said about being lucky, Venerable Ning Jing did not believe that he was only able to sever the other party’s Connate Phala because of the protection of the human race’s destiny.
How ridiculous…
These words might be able to fool people below the Connate Realm, but how could Venerable Ning Jing not know how powerful the strongest beings among the Connate Realm were?
The Connate Phala was not only the foundation of a martial artist but was also a powerful offensive weapon. Its power was above that of a Connate warrior.
But since its importance was too great and it represented the foundation and future of a martial artist, they would not use it so easily.
Take Venerable Ning Jing as an example. Even if she encountered a peerless enemy, unless she was on the verge of death, it was impossible for anyone to cause a Connate expert to fall in rank.
If one wanted to sever the Connate Phala and capture the martial artist alive, they had to possess overwhelming and terrifying strength. It would definitely not be as Wang Yi had said. He was definitely not just lucky.
The three-layered cage shrank to the size of a grain of rice again. Wang Yi casually threw it at Venerable Ning Jing and said with a smile, “Those who are capable will do more work.”
“I’ll leave this person to you, Fellow Daoist Ning Jing. As for the rest, I’ll need you to worry about it.”
Wang Yi had never told Venerable Ning Jing how to use the disassembled version of the Heaven Imprisoning Finger. However, this thing did not have much technical content. It should not be difficult for a person like Venerable Ning Jing.
Venerable Ning Jing put away the triple cage and cupped her fists. “Fellow Daoist Wang, you’re welcome.”
“When I return, I will take matters into my own hands and make him speak as soon as possible to give us the information we need.”
Upon hearing this, Wang Yi nodded slightly and cupped his fists. “In that case, I’ll wait for Fellow Daoist Ning Jing’s good news.”
At this moment, the Connate-level war started by the Yang God Race had completely come to an end.
In fact, the Yang God Race’s plan was already perfect. They used both overt schemes and conspiracies. They considered all kinds of possible accidents and special situations and set up countermeasures.
However, they had lost because of the information they had gathered. Due to the backward nature of the information, they had underestimated Wang Yi’s strength.
Otherwise, if not for Wang Yi’s existence, or if his strength matched their intelligence, they might really have succeeded in their ambush. Even if they failed, they would not have suffered such heavy losses.
Furthermore, they had even lost in terms of information transmission and logistical support.
With their understanding of this world, they were completely unable to understand and accept this method of communication.
However, there was something even more unacceptable.
Only three words were used: “chase”, “okay”, and “kill”.
These three words alone decided the fate of the three Connate experts of the Yang God Race. Two of them were forcefully killed on the spot, while one of them descended from the Connate Realm and became a prisoner of the human race.
