Chapter 174: So Wonderful
Chapter 174: So Wonderful
"It will take us some time. If we work together, we'll definitely break the net. But now, there is no room
to play our tricks."
A cultivator interrupted them and said.
Now, if they want to break the net, they have to self-destruct.
But that was impossible.
"What should we do?"
This thought flashed through all of their mind.
Everyone felt extremely aggrieved.
The mortification was beyond description.
Not to mention that they had been in the Divinity Phase for many years...
Even when they were still weak, because they were core members of the secluded families, they would
not tolerate such mortification.
Everyone looked at Jacob with both fear and hatred. They wished to tear him apart.
Jacob once again soared into the air, walked on the air like he was walking on the ground and arrived
in front of them.
Looking at the people in the net, Jacob said coldly, "I've given you a chance, but you didn't cherish it.
Now, if you seven want to live, you'll have to buy your lives."
As soon as Jacob said those words, the seven people were stunned.
With Marvin and Lance as examples, they instantly understood what Jacob meant.
Instantly!
However, their eyes were filled with disbelief.
Jacob not only forced the Semi-Divinity Phase cultivators from their families to sign the IOU and used it
to blackmail them, but he wanted them to do the same?
Jacob ignored them and continued, "You will be charged different prices from those at the Semi-Divinity
Phase!"
"Those who have money to buy their lives, live!"
"Those who don't, die!"
When mentioning death, Jacob's voice suddenly turned cold.
The seven people felt cold down their spines.
The strong and pure aura of blood emitted from Jacob and his cold eyes reminded them of something.
Jacob would kill.
Since he had offended their families by forcing the younger generation to sign the IOUs, he wouldn't
mind making it more offensive.
"I'll give you three seconds. Those who will pay for their lives, speak, and those who won't, stay silent.
After three seconds, you will decide your own fate."
Jacob looked at them and said emotionlessly.
It was as if Satan was interrogating them.
If it weren't for the lack of resources on Earth, Jacob wouldn't have talked so much to those who were
after him.
He would directly kill them.
After saying that, Jacob didn't give them much time.
The countdown began.
"Three!"
"Two!"
Jacob paused for a moment before continuing, "One!"
When the countdown ended, earth-shaking bloodlust was emitted from Jacob's body.
It shot straight at Shyla.
Shyla felt the threat of death.
Even if she was at the late stage of Divinity Phase, she trembled at it.
It was as if she would die in the next second.
Shyla wanted to bite the bullet, or wait for someone else to speak before she admitted defeat.
However, she couldn't withstand the bloodlust and said, "I'm willing to pay!"
As soon as she said it, she immediately felt the gazes of the other six.
Her face blushed in no time.
The moment they realized that Jacob was going to kill them, everyone had made their choices in their
heart.
However, the first one speaking would still be the one being looked down on.
Shyla glared fiercely at them and looked at Jacob.
Since she had admitted her cowardice and said so, Shyla burned the bridge.
"I'm willing to pay," she repeated.
Jacob nodded.
He had a bad impression of this woman.
He thought she was hypocritical.
However, Jacob wouldn't kill her because of this. As long as they had enough money to pay, he
wouldn't kill any of them.
"Quote a price!"
This time, Jacob didn't ask for a price like he did to those Semi-Divinity Phase cultivators.
Shyla was surprised.
Her eyes lit up upon hearing that she could quote her price.
Then, she said, "I am willing to offer five top-grade Reinforcing Panaceas, 500 grams of Tungsten
Steel, one 200-year-old Saussurea Involucrate, and 500 grams of 300-year-old Nectar Wine..."
Shyla said eight items in a row.
Everything she mentioned was precious.
Moreover, the more she spoke, the more precious the items were.
After saying that, Shyla stared at Jacob with anticipation.
Even the other six cultivators looked at Jacob.
However, when Jacob heard this, he smiled coldly.
Utmost malice surfaced in his eyes.
"I'll give you one last chance. If you still want to die, I'll fulfill your wish."
Jacob said coldly.
These things were precious.
But it was almost the same as the price he asked from those Semi-Divinity Phase cultivators last time.
The combined value of all these items was not higher than the value of precious medicine paid by the
Pharmacy Pavilion in exchange for Yana's life.
As soon as Jacob said those words, Shyla was astounded.
The other cultivators' eyes also dimmed.
Shyla added, "I'll give you two pieces of Glass Fruit and ten Fiend Sunflower Seeds..."
Shyla said it through gritted teeth.
All of them were extremely precious items. They could even be the treasures of the clan for the Stone
family.
Shyla said six more items in a row and stopped.
Then, she looked at Jacob.
Even the seven cultivators couldn't do anything to Jacob, so his power must be at an unapproachable
level.
Right now, they had realized that Jacob's strength was probably above the peak Divinity Phase.
Otherwise, how could Jacob take them down so easily and was not afraid to offend the secluded
families?
There had never been a peak Divinity Phase cultivator in the Stone family. Although her cousin was
working hard for it, he was still at the late stage of Divinity Phase for now. If Jacob killed her, not only
would the power of the Stone family be greatly damaged, but there would be no one to avenge her.
Those items she mentioned was a backup plan she had long come up with, and if she failed, those
materials would have to be given out.
How could she not feel heartache?
But she didn't have the power to negotiate with Jacob.
However, according to Shyla's estimation, the value of items she quoted should be enough to bail a
cultivator at the late stage of Divinity Phase out.
While in her heart, her life was priceless.
Even if the precious medicine given to her was few times than her offer, it would not be as valuable as
her life.
After Jacob heard this, he did not think much and said, "Double the Fiend Sunflower Seeds!"
The seed was beneficial to the cultivation of the spiritual will.
Not to mention concocting panaceas to maximize its effects, even if eaten raw, it could enhance a
person's spiritual will.
It was even useful for him.
Hearing this, Shyla knew that Jacob would never change his mind.
She gritted her teeth and nodded, "Accepted!"
Jacob nodded in satisfaction.
Then, he flicked his finger and a black flame was shot into Shyla's body.
"What did you do to me?"
Shyla was shocked.
They had agreed on the price, yet Jacob still attacked her?
Jacob sneered. The woman was too ignorant.
"No Soul IOU this time. Send these things to Riverside City within ten days. Otherwise, you will feel
worse than death. After your soul is burned for twenty-four hours, it will be extinguished."
Jacob said coldly.
After saying that, he reached out and grasped. Immediately, Shyla was released from the Tight
Dragnet.
Shyla was both shocked and afraid.
She sensed the black flame in her body.
She used her spiritual energy to touch it, and it was turned into ash.
Puff!
Shyla let out a snort.
Blood oozed out from the corner of her mouth.
Just by trying, her spiritual energy was damaged.
Shyla was utterly aghast.
She looked at Jacob as if he was a devil.
How could there be such a trick in this world?
Even the wizards and witches from the Granger family and Southeast Asia couldn't do this.
Shyla included Jacob in her 'most dangerous people' list.
Now, Shyla could only hope that other families, especially the Pharmacy Pavilion, would assault Jacob
and kill him.
If they couldn't kill him, Shyla decided that the Stone family would not involve in this.
As for the money she and Marvin owed Jacob, they would just give it to him.
Shyla was very clear about her plan.
"I will deliver them on time."
Shyla said to Jacob.
Seeing that Jacob had no intention of stopping her, she immediately turned around and disappeared.
She quickly escaped into the distance.
She didn't want to stay with Jacob for another second.
However, those precious medicines would take her some time to gather, if Jacob was killed, then the
debt would be discharged.
If he wasn't, then she would give them to him on the tenth day.
Seeing Shyla fleeing far away, the other six people were no longer silent.
They began to talk and were willing to pay for their lives.
With Shyla as the example and her quote as a standard, all the other six cultivators quoted their own
price. Property © NôvelDrama.Org.
They all received the black flame after offering a series of precious medicines, among which were
some that couldn't be bought under normal transactions.
Afterwards, they left with different thoughts.
Only when the last person left did Jacob put away the Tight Dragnet.
When he put the Tight Dragnet back into the Chaos Pearl, the Chaos Pearl would be connected to the
outside world for an instant.
When Jacob put the Tight Dragnet into the Chaos Pearl, he had made preparations. The fetus, who
was waiting for Jacob to collect the Tight Dragnet, found the right time and got out.
"I am free..."
After coming out, the fetus laughed loudly.
But he was grabbed by Jacob.
He looked at him with hostility.
"I ... I just came out to get some air, it's too stuffy inside..."
The fetus, who had been caught by Jacob, smiled embarrassedly.
Jacob didn't care. He grabbed him and sized him up.
"You ... what are you doing? I'm not gay..."
Looking at Jacob's gaze, the fetus cried out in horror.
Jacob's expression darkened.
The power of chaos was released from the hand that was holding him.
The fetus let out a miserable scream.
After a long time, Jacob let him go. With his ability however, he couldn't find anything strange about
him.
But there was definitely something wrong with the fetus.
"I ... Sir, my lord ... can you please not put me back? The outside world is so beautiful, let me stay
outside for a while longer..."
After the scream, the fetus didn't dare to complain to Jacob but said so pitifully.
This time, Jacob nodded, which was beyond the fetus' expectation.
And he let him go.
He was freed!
Holy shit!
Was he crazy?
The fetus felt that it was somewhat unbelievable.
However, the next second, he understood.
If he dared to escape, he would definitely end up miserably.
He was definitely not able to escape from Jacob.
Because Jacob's chaos power was his buster.
For a moment, the fetus felt that his life was meaningless.
However, in the next moment, his upset look instantly disappeared.
His eyes lit up.
He flew downwards.
What did he see?
A very beautiful girl was looking at him from beneath!
