My Cultivation Prowess Peaks after I Buried the Great Emperor’s Corpse

150 Lin Wudao: You Need to Pay More!

“Tell me, how can I help you?”

Suppressing the uneasiness in his heart, Li Qingshan asked calmly.

Hearing this, Li Chengyin took a deep breath and immediately voiced out the thoughts in his heart.

“Grandpa, I seem to have heard you mention before that you once entered a mysterious ruin when you were young and obtained some opportunities and good fortune.
In addition, you also obtained a nameless ancient corpse, right? According to your guess, that ancient corpse is at least in the Heaven Capture realm.
I wonder if you still have it…” He asked carefully.

Hmph!

Hearing this, Li Qingshan’s face darkened.

“I thought you needed my help.
So you’re after the ancient corpse in my hand?”

“This… I have no other choice,” Li Chengyin braced himself and answered.

At this moment, he could clearly feel Li Qingshan’s sharp gaze.

However, to ascend to the position of clan leader and revitalize their branch, Li Chengyin was unwilling to let go of such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

“Grandpa, this is a rare opportunity! Our branch isn’t highly regarded in the Li family.
The branches of the other young masters all have patriarchs who have reached perfection in the Heavenly Cycle realm overseeing them.
As for you, although you’re a Grand Elder, your status and position are much lower.
”

“If I can become the clan leader, then our branch will have a much higher status, position, and authority in the entire Li family.
Whether or not we can revitalize our branch depends on this.
Besides, since I can get the chance to invite Dongfang Bubai, others might get the chance too.
Once someone else gets it first, we will never be able to turn things around.
Grandfather, please consider the bigger picture.”

Thump!

As he spoke, Li Chengyin knelt and kowtowed heavily.

Hearing his words, Li Qingshan was also moved.

“Sigh, very well…”

In the end, he let out a long sigh and seemed to have compromised.

“Chengyin, you’re right.
This is indeed a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Since you want to fight for the position, I’ll help you this time.
That ancient corpse was definitely in the Heaven Capture realm when it was alive.
It was a true powerhouse.
Originally, I intended to refine it into a puppet.
Since you want it, I will give it to you.”

Boom!

Li Qingshan waved his hand, and an ancient bronze coffin appeared on the ground.

It emitted the decaying aura of time.

Bang!

Out of curiosity, Li Chengyin opened the coffin to take a look.

As expected, he saw a well-preserved male corpse inside.

Although it had been eroded over time, it did not show any signs of decay.

“Use this ancient corpse as a sacrifice and see if you can invite Dongfang Bubai.”

“Yes, Grandpa.”

Li Chengyin bowed and acknowledged.

He forcefully suppressed the surprise and excitement in his heart and immediately tried to communicate with Dongfang Bubai.

“Emissary Dongfang, I am Li Chengyin.
I am willing to offer the corpse of a Heaven Capture realm powerhouse as a sacrifice to invite you to help me ascend to the position of the Li Family’s clan leader.
”

Thump!

Thump!

Thump!

…

Li Chengyin kowtowed in an extremely pious manner.

In the Myth Inn, Lin Wudao was also waiting for Li Chengyin’s sacrifice.

“Did he really get the corpse of a Heaven Capture Realm powerhouse?”

Looking at the information displayed in the Book of All Beings, Lin Wudao’s spirits were lifted.

“How can I help you?”

“Emissary Dongfang, the old ancestor has said that the competition method for the Li family’s clan leader this time is the Path to Heaven.
Whoever performs the best will become the next clan leader of the Li family.
Therefore, I implore Emissary Dongfang to help me achieve my wish…”

Li Chengyin continued to kowtow piously.

Path to Heaven?

Lin Wudao was surprised.

He did not expect that the Li family’s selection of the clan leader would actually be linked to the Path to Heaven this time.

“Very well.
However, if you want me to perform well on the Path to Heaven, the corpse of a Heaven Capture realm powerhouse is not enough.
You have to pay more.”

Lin Wudao would not let go of this good opportunity to kill a fat sheep.

What? Not enough? Pay more?

Hearing this, Li Chengyin was stunned.

This was different from what he had expected.

However, now that the arrow was already on the bowstring, he had no choice but to shoot.
There was nothing else he could do other than bite the bullet and walk on.

“How much more do I have to pay?” Li Chengyin suppressed the anxiety in his heart and asked carefully.

“Not much.
Just give me half of the Li family’s resources.”

What was that? Half of the family’s resources?

Li Chengyin’s heart was in turmoil.

This price was a little high.

“Why? Are you unwilling? Since you don’t think I’m worth this price, I can only look for other young masters to seek cooperation.
I believe that they are also very eager for the position of clan leader.”

As he spoke, Lin Wudao pretended to want to leave.

These words frightened Li Chengyin.

“No, no, no.
That’s not what I meant.
I agree with your request! As long as Emissary Dongfang can help me become the clan leader of the Li family, I’m willing to offer half of the Li family’s resources as a reward,” He quickly expressed his stance.

He seemed very afraid that Dongfang Bubai would leave him.

After all, Dongfang Bubai was his greatest reliance to become the clan leader.
If the former left just like that, all his hopes would be dashed.

This result was naturally not what he wanted.

Lin Wudao was extremely satisfied with Li Chengyin’s attitude.

“Alright.
Since you’re willing to offer the corpse of a Heaven Capture realm powerhouse and half of the Li family’s resources as a sacrifice, I’ll accept your invitation and help you become the Li family’s clan leader.
When the Path to Heaven descends, I will participate in it as you.
You just have to wait patiently.”

Buzz!

As soon as he finished speaking, a strange black hole suddenly appeared in midair.

Then, under Li Qingshan and Li Chengyin’s extremely shocked gazes, the bronze coffin on the ground was instantly sucked into the black hole.

In the blink of an eye, it disappeared without a trace.

“Wow, what a strange method! Dongfang Bubai indeed has divine abilities!” Li Qingshan exclaimed.

Originally, he still had some doubts in his heart, but after seeing this strange and magical scene, he completely believed in Dongfang Bubai’s methods and strength.

He didn’t dare to have any more doubts.

“Chengyin, you’ve hit the jackpot this time.”

At this moment, an excited smile appeared on his old face.

Li Chengyin’s expression was the same.

However, what they did not know was that half of the Li family’s resources had disappeared along with the bronze coffin.

“Someone! Something big has happened!”

“Not good, a thief has gotten into the treasury!”

“Hurry up and inform the old ancestor that someone has infiltrated the Li family and stolen a large number of treasures from the treasury!”

…

With a series of earth-shattering exclamations, the entire Li family was in chaos in an instant.

Hearing the noise outside, Li Qingshan and Li Chengyin exchanged a glance.
They saw the intense shock and disbelief in each other’s eyes.

“What kind of method is this to take away half of the Li family’s resources without anyone noticing? We must not offend Dongfang Bubai.
Chengyin, you can’t reveal a single word about this matter.
Otherwise, we will most definitely die without a burial place,” Li Qingshan warned sternly.

Li Chengyin nodded heavily.

He was not a fool.
He naturally knew the terrifying consequences of this matter.

…

Lin Wudao ignored their shock and the panic of the Li family.

At this moment, he was enjoying the fruits of his victory.
