The Medallion Chapter 1167 The Sterilization Problem

"Please forgive my rudeness, but Prince Crimson, the other half of the spiritual treasure..." The
patriarch's hesitant voice caught their attention when he spoke up. Even though he also thought it was
a little abrupt to mention it at such a moment, he still had to, because the spiritual treasure was too
precious for them.

"Oh, wait a moment," Rocky answered. Then he brought out the Mysterious Spirit Raw Gemstone and
threw it to the patriarch, who hurriedly caught the stone with careful hands.

The patriarch also gestured for the elders to come over so that they could take a closer look. When
they had made sure that it was what they were looking for, the patriarch put it away and turned to
Rocky. "Prince Crimson, can I ask a question? Where did you get this half of our spiritual treasure?"

"It's a long story, but I think there's no need to linger on that. Now that the other half of the spiritual
treasure is back in your hands now, I believe there's no need for further explanations. Anyway, I've
done what I came all the way here to do. I am leaving now," Rocky concluded. He didn't bother to
explain because he knew that the Wood Clan would not complicate things further than necessary. After
all, he had helped their legendary guardian beast reappear in the world. The Wood Clan owed him a
favor because of that, so they could not blame him for keeping the other half in his pocket. Of course,
he didn't care about how they would treat him later. He came here to stop Alyssa from going to the
Heavenly Demon Clan, and he did it.

As soon as Rocky finished speaking, he nodded to the people behind him, including the three women.
After that, he summoned the three beasts back to his Magic Spiritual Space, and all of them got ready
to leave.

On the other hand, his actions had utterly shocked the patriarch and the elders of the Wood Clan, and
their facial expressions betrayed that. After all, Rocky had done such a big favor for them. He not only
returned the other half of the spiritual treasure, but he also brought their legendary guardian beast back



to this world. Thus, they believed that Rocky would use that to take advantage of them, or at the least,
request some things that would benefit him and his empire. However, Rocky didn't seem interested any
of those at all, as he was already getting ready to leave. He looked preoccupied with packing his things
and instructing his companions to do the same.

Seeing all these, the patriarch and the elders all put their hearts to rest. They discretely exchanged
glances with each other, deciding that they would not look a gift-horse in the mouth, and Rocky and his
companions could leave as soon as they wished. Although their clan had fallen out with the Heavenly
Demon Clan, they still had the spiritual treasure and the legendary guardian beast, which empowered
them enough that they would not need to care about the Heavenly Demon Clan anymore.

"Basil! Wait a moment!" Alyssa suddenly shouted as if an idea had struck her mind.

Rocky immediately stopped what he was doing, and turned to Alyssa with an expectant look, but to his
surprise, she didn't go up to him.

Instead, she walked up to the patriarch and the elders, and they whispered among each other for a
while. As they talked, the faces of the Wood Clan' seniors became more and more solemn.

"Prince Crimson, please hold on for a second!" The patriarch hurriedly strode towards Rocky, looking
very anxious.

To everyone's surprise, he stopped right in front of Rocky and then bowed deeply without saying
anything. His humble attitude and the respectful look on his face all showed that he wanted something
from Rocky.

"I just heard from Alyssa that you might be able to solve the sterilization problem of our clan. Perhaps,
we can talk about it before you leave?" the patriarch asked straightforwardly.



Rocky then realized that Alyssa must have told them that he could use genetic technology to treat the
spiritual beasts. Through that, he should be able to do something about their sterilization problem.

"Yes, maybe." Rocky nodded nonchalantly.

"If you don't mind, can we talk about it in detail?" The patriarch's eyes lit up immediately. The spiritual
treasure and the legendary guardian beast might be important to their clan, but as the leader, he was
more concerned about their future. The Wood Clan had lost the ability to reproduce years ago, and this
was a problem that would affect their survival. Although the lifespan of the spiritual race was two or
three times longer than that of the human race, if they couldn't have children, their clan would die out
hundreds of years later.

The problem with fertility was the biggest headache for any clan of the spiritual race. Due to their
natural physique, it was difficult for them to have children, and their fertility rate was very low. Except
for several clans of the spiritual race who could reproduce in other ways, most of them had to
reproduce through traditional means. For example, the Phoenix Master Clan had found a secret
method, so they didn't have to worry about their low fertility rates.

Of course, even if a clan's fertility rate was low, it could at least reproduce. But for the Wood Clan, it
was another story, as they were completely sterilized. They were not the only clan of the spiritual race
to suffer this. It had also happened to many declining clans, including one of the nine great clans, the
Water Master Clan, which had once been gloriously populated.

The Water Master Clan lived in the sea, and their members were also known as sea spirits because
they had the power to control water. In the early days, when the nine great clans had just come into
being, it was very prosperous and influential, and all the other clans were intimidated by them.

However, the Water Master Clan declined rapidly through hundreds of years, until they finally
disappeared from the Wild Spirit Land. No one knew the particular reason, but it was highly likely that it



had something to do with their fertility. Almost every spiritual race member knew that their fertility rate
decreased little by little. In the end, they entered the sterile period and could not have children
anymore, which resulted in the extinction of their clan.

Therefore, for any powerful and prosperous clan of the spiritual race, sterilization was a crucial
problem, as it would undoubtedly lead to their extinction.

So it was only natural that the patriarch of Wood Clan grew very excited when he heard the news that
Rocky had a way to solve their sterilization problem. Even while he was talking with Rocky, he was still
in shock and could barely believe what luck had landed in his hands.

If Rocky could really solve the problem, the Wood Clan wouldn't be doomed, and the patriarch would
be remembered by the later generations forever. This fantastic opportunity threw the spiritual treasure
they had been longing for and the excitement of obtaining the legendary guardian beast to the back of
his mind. Thus, Rocky became a key to the Wood Clan's survival, and they began to hope that he
could turn their fate away from extinction.

No wonder the patriarch suddenly treated Rocky so seriously, despite the fact that he was just human.

Rocky glanced at the patriarch briefly before he turned to Alyssa, who was looking at him with pleading
eyes. An unspoken conversation seemed to pass through between them, until finally, Rocky sighed
inwardly in resignation. He understood that she wanted him to help the Wood Clan. No matter what had
happened before, Alyssa was also a member of the Wood Clan. She would never stand aside and
watch the Wood Clan perish.

"Why don't we talk about it now?" Rocky nodded generously, although deep in his heart, he had his
own motives. He had always been very interested in the genes of the spiritual race. Previously, Rocky
had done some research on the Dragon Master Clan's genes, but he had to postpone it due to lack of a



contrast test. Now that the opportunity had presented itself, he had no reason to turn it down. He
decided that he would embrace this chance to satiate his desire for knowledge.

Without any further hesitation, Rocky asked the women and the others to join the escorts outside first.
Then he went to an enormous treehouse at the north of the Wood Clan's residence with the patriarch,
the elders, Evita, and Alyssa.

He was led into a hall first, where the patriarch asked him to take a seat.

"I wonder what kind of method you can use to help us reproduce. Can you tell us more about it?" the
patriarch asked eagerly as soon as they had all sat down.

As if someone had given a silent signal, all their eyes turned to Rocky attentively. They sat straight on
their seats, with their ears pricked in concentration as they waited for him to explain.
