Chapter 348 – Trading Session Ends, Heavenly Monarch Speaks Dharma, Demonic Tribulation
Chapter 348 – End of Trading Session, Heavenly Monarch Lecture on Dharma, Matter of Demonic Tribulation
“Fifth ranked Fire Elemental God Nurturing Flower, Fellow Daoist Xin, with this item, I wonder if I can exchange it with you for that fifth ranked talisman inheritance?”
Jiang Chengxuan raised his eyes to look at a middle-aged man dressed in a metaphysical-colored Daoist robe in front of him and asked.
The middle-aged man in a basalt-colored dao robe was the one who had taken out those three talisman drawing methods this time, named Xin Yuanzhen.
At this moment, when he saw the Fire Element God Nurturing Flower that Jiang Chengxuan had taken out, a hint of surprise immediately rose in his eyes.
This fifth-ranked Fire Element God Nurturing Flower was a spiritual object that could enhance a cultivator’s divine sense.
Especially for cultivators who majored in fire attribute techniques, the effect was even more obvious.
Needless to say, this item was likewise something he was currently in dire need of.
At that moment, he didn’t haggle with Jiang Chengxuan and nodded immediately upon hearing the words.
“Yes.”
With that, he exchanged the jade slip inscribed with the fifth-order talisman inheritance with the fifth-order Fire Elemental God Nurturing Flower in Jiang Chengxuan’s hand.
After completing this exchange, it happened to be Jiang Chengxuan’s turn to go on stage as well.
At that moment, he took out a bunch of fifth-order demonic beast materials from his own body, as well as a three-thousand year old Cloud Dragon Grass.
This was a fifth-rank spirit material that could help cultivators rapidly accumulate mana.
“The materials from the Fifth Order Demon Emperor, plus a strain of Cloud Dragon Grass, I want to use them and exchange them for an A Wood Heavenly Vine, or a B Wood Earth Chi.”
The two spirit materials Jiang Chengxuan mentioned here were both used as one of the main materials to refine that Eastern Green Dragon Flag.
However, when these words of his fell, there was no one present to make a sound.
Obviously, everyone didn’t have the two spiritual substances mentioned by Jiang Chengxuan in their hands at the moment.
It wasn’t until a few moments later that Pei Daoqi from the Mingzhen Sect spoke up and said to Jiang Chengxuan above:
“Fellow Daoist Jiang, I have a piece of information here about that Ethereal Wood Earth Chi, if you’re interested in it, I can use it to exchange with that Cloud Dragon Grass of yours.”
Hmm? There’s information about that Ethereal Wood Earth Chi?
Jiang Chengxuan couldn’t help but frown slightly.
To be honest, if it was just a piece of information, it would not be enough to exchange it for his Cloud Dragon Grass.
Moreover, on what basis could he believe that the information provided by Pei Daoqi here was true and correct?
As if he could see Jiang Chengxuan’s thoughts, Pei Daoqi couldn’t help but continue to speak:
“If you are willing to exchange with me, I can sign a Yuan Shen contract with you to ensure that the information I provide you with is indeed accurate.
In addition, I can also give you an additional 30,000 upper grade spirit stones, I wonder what you think, fellow Daoist Jiang?”
The Yuan Shen Contract that Pei Daoqi was talking about here was a contract that was even more binding than that blood oath contract.
Moreover, this kind of contract specifically targeted the cultivator’s Yuan Shen.
Once it was violated, the Yuan Shen would be seriously injured, or the Yuan Shen would collapse and die on the spot.
Since Pei Daoqi was willing to sign that Yuan Shen contract with him, it showed that the information Pei Daoqi provided to him this time should not be a problem.
Thinking of this, Jiang Chengxuan immediately said to Pei Daoqi:
“If it’s a signing of the Yuan Shen Contract, then I don’t have any problems.
But an additional 30,000 top grade spirit stones is still a bit insufficient, you need to add an additional 40,000 top grade spirit stones to make it work.”
Hearing Jiang Chengxuan’s words, Pei Daoqi hesitated slightly, but in the end, he still nodded at Jiang Chengxuan.
“Good!”
Soon, the two of them signed the Yuan Shen Contract with each other under the witness of Su Qingchan and completed this transaction.
When Jiang Chengxuan returned to his position, he immediately took out the jade slip given by Pei Daoqi.
After reading the contents of this jade slip, Jiang Chengxuan’s brows immediately furrowed.
The whereabouts of the Ethereal Wood Earth Chi recorded in the jade slip was not in the Northern Territory, but in a place called the Sunset Secret Realm in the Eastern Pole.
The entire Nine Yuan Immortal Cultivation Realm was divided into five major regions.
They were the Eastern Pole, the Southern Desert, the Western Desert, the Central Region, and the Northern Border where they were currently located.
Between each other, they could be said to be separated by an extremely long distance.
It would not be an exaggeration to say that if one were to travel from their northern border to the East Pole.
Even with their current cultivation, if they were to simply fly, it would take at least several years.
Fortunately, between the five major regions, there were all correspondingly mega teleportation arrays.
With this, it was possible to save quite a bit of time.
But the problem came again.
The Sunset Secret Realm mentioned in the jade slip was understood to be a place that was jointly held by several major Transformation God forces in the East Pole.
Basically, it would only open once every three hundred years.
Unless one had a letter of recommendation, or a corresponding internal quota, if a foreign YuanYing wanted to enter that secret realm, they would never let you enter casually without paying a sufficient price.
Moreover, even if a foreign baby can enter that secret realm, when you come out, you still need to hand over 30% of your harvest in that secret realm to the several major God-realizing forces.
Thirty percent of the harvest may not seem like a lot, but the selection of items is up to them.
In the event that the person in charge of this matter happens to take a fancy to what you need the most, wouldn’t that be a basket case?
So.
If you want to enter that secret realm, unless you have a relevant letter of recommendation, or a way, you can fight for the corresponding internal quota.
Otherwise, the risk is really a bit uncontrollable.
At this moment, Jiang Chengxuan’s expression couldn’t help but become somewhat ugly.
Not to say that he was not pitched, but his mood, however, would not be much better.
Originally thought that it would be somewhere in the Northern Border that had the whereabouts of the Ethereal Wood Ganoderma, but it turned out to be in the Eastern Pole, and it was still in that kind of a secret realm.
If not for the fact that the two sides have signed the Yuan Shen contract, Jiang Chengxuan would really like to suspect that the information Pei Daoqi gave him is not false.
“Husband, what’s wrong? What’s wrong?”
At this moment, Shen Ruyan, who was located beside him, noticed the difference in Jiang Chengxuan’s expression and immediately asked with concern.
Jiang Chengxuan shook his head.
“It’s nothing, just a little upset.”
Saying that, he didn’t hide it from Shen Ruyan, but instead, he told her what was in that jade slip.
Immediately after Shen Ruyan heard this, a trace of coldness swept through her beautiful eyes.
Only to hear her say, “Husband, that Pei Daoqi, is clearly deliberately swindling you, after that see how I can clean him up.”
Jiang Chengxuan shook his head once again at this time.
“There’s no such need to intentionally find trouble with him.
In the end, this matter is still my own carelessness and I can’t blame anyone else.
All you and I need to know is that this person should not be deeply associated with him in the future.
If there is really a chance in time, I will get this debt back from him.”
“Alright then.”
Seeing her own husband say this, Shen Ruyan did not insist anymore.
She knew her own husband’s character.
Since he had said so, as a wife, she only needed to follow his wishes.
Following on, one after another, some more people came forward.
Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan, too, took the opportunity to once again exchange some of the things they had used.
When the last person stepped down from the stage, the whole trading session almost came to an end.
Buzz!
It was at this moment that an extremely vast breath suddenly descended from the sky.
Immediately afterward, in front of everyone’s eyes, there was a white-clothed figure.
The figure owner seemed to be somewhere between the real and the unreal.
Of the many Yuan Ying True Lords present, surprisingly none of them were able to see his face clearly.
However, right at this moment, Su Qingchan, who was the host of this occasion, suddenly bowed down to that white-clothed figure and said respectfully under her breath:
“Disciple Qingchan, meet Master!”
It turned out that the one who appeared before the eyes of the crowd was the true ruler of this Long Heavenly Palace, the Long Mountain Heavenly Monarch who possessed the cultivation of a Transformation Spirit!
“We greet the Heavenly Monarch!”
The crowd of YuanYing True Monarchs all reacted at this time, and one by one, they immediately bowed down to that white-robed figure in the same manner.
“All rise.”
As a soft voice fell.
Whoever was present felt a soft force that lifted their bodies up.
This also made the people present, quite shocked in their hearts.
One must know that the number of YuanYing cultivators present was quite a lot.
As a result, Changshan Heavenly Monarch, who was a God Transformation Heavenly Monarch, had only slightly exerted his magic power, causing all of their bodies to straighten up involuntarily.
From this, it was evident that the difference between a Transformation Spirit and a YuanYing was simply a world of difference.
“Since this is a cultivator exchange meeting organized by my Chang Heavenly Palace, then this seat, me, should also show something.”
At this moment, one could hear the Long Mountain Heavenly Monarch continue:
“Next, it will be me, who will tell you about the relevant cultivation for you and others.”
As soon as they heard these words from the Long Mountain Heavenly Monarch, there was one in the room that counted, all of them were energized.
One had to know that any Transformation God Heavenly Monarch could be said to be an existence of a divine dragon.
Normally, not to mention listening to his teachings, even if one wanted to see him, it would be an extremely difficult thing to do.
Soon, Heavenly Monarch Changshan’s lecture began.
This time, what he was talking about was precisely about the cultivation of the YuanYing realm.
Many people were mesmerized as they listened.
There were even those who were lucky enough to have a breakthrough in their cultivation in the process of listening to the lecture, causing many people present to look sideways, as well as envy.
Although Jiang Chengxuan didn’t make progress in his cultivation like those cultivators who had broken through.
However, the things that Heavenly Monarch Changshan had said had answered many of the doubts in his heart, making the path he was going to take clearer and clearer.
On the contrary, it was the Flying Snow True Monarch on his side, in the process of listening to the law, it seemed that he had gained some kind of extraordinary enlightenment, and the whole person had unexpectedly fallen into a kind of esoteric state.
Jiang Chengxuan knew that this was an epiphany.
For a cultivator, this is definitely considered a very great opportunity.
It was thought that by the time True Lord Feixue came out of her epiphany this time, her cultivation, too, should have progressed.
And this lecture lasted for a total of three days.
After having almost finished lecturing about the cultivation of the YuanYing realm, Heavenly Monarch Changshan, then lectured some more about how to advance to Transformation Spirit.
In a nutshell, if a cultivator wanted to ascend to God Transformation, the first thing he had to do was that he had to make his divine sense reach a certain level, in order to prepare for the future evolution of divine sense into divine mind.
Secondly, it was to have the ability to sense the aura of heaven and earth.
As we all know, in this heaven and earth, there are many different attributes of heaven and earth aura.
These included wood, fire, water, earth, gold, thunder, wind, ice, and so on.
What they had to do was to use this to sense the heaven and earth aura that corresponded to their own, so as to prepare for manipulating them later on.
Only by doing the above two things will you be considered to have a slight chance of peeking into the realm of the Transformation Spirit.
If you can’t even do the above two things, then the God of Transformation is just a flower in the water and a moon in the mirror for you, and it is simply impossible to achieve it.
“Alright, this lecture will end here.”
Heavenly Lord Changshan slowly spoke.
“Moving on, there is something that I need to remind you all of.
That is, there is the matter of the demonic calamity in my Nine Elements Immortal Cultivation Realm.”
As soon as they heard these words from Heavenly Monarch Changshan, everyone, including Jiang Chengxuan, couldn’t help but look aghast.
Obviously, at this time, all YuanYing cultivators basically already knew that there was something about the demonic robberies that happened once every 1,200 years.
Then he heard Heavenly Monarch Changshan continue, “According to the projections of Fellow Daoist Ziyan and I, as well as Fellow Daoist Wan Hai, this Demonic Tribulation should erupt within ten years.”
“What? Explode within ten years?”
Everyone’s hearts couldn’t help but be taken aback.
It was obvious that many people did not know that the so-called Demonic Tribulation was already so close to them.
“Not bad.”
Then he saw the Long Mountain Heavenly Monarch nod his head.
“Therefore, in the time that follows, it is necessary for you and others to go back and make more preparations.
This matter is not only about your own safety and security, but also about the safety and security of my entire Nine Elements Immortal Cultivation Realm.
Therefore, there is no room for the slightest carelessness.”
After a pause, he heard Heavenly Monarch Changshan add:
“After Fellow Daoist Ziyan and I and they have specifically projected the general location of this demonic calamity, we will notify everyone.
At that time, but all clans and sects that are above Foundation Establishment must unconditionally participate in the battle of this Devil Tribulation.
If there are those who defy the order or retreat to avoid the battle, I, and even Daoist friend Ziyan and the others, will never lightly forgive them.”
With these words, Heavenly Monarch Changshan’s tone clearly took on a bit of severity, and hearing the crowd of True Lords present, their faces couldn’t help but be very grave.
But in the end, the crowd still rose up, indicating that they and the others were already aware.
It was also at this point that a True Lord present suddenly raised doubts.
What if the demonic beast side, while they were fighting against the demonic calamity, suddenly unleashed a demonic beast rebellion.
One must know that at that time, all of the strength of the human race would definitely be focused on the battle against the demonic tribulation.
There was simply no way to worry about the Demonic Beast Rebellion.
In case the demonic beast side exploited the situation at that time, wouldn’t their human race be in danger of extinction?
The doubts raised by this True Lord were likewise something that everyone present was worried about.
After all, the demonic beast side had been fighting with their human race for so many years, they would never miss such a great opportunity.
The most frightening thing was that in case the demonic beast side directly joined forces with the demonic cultivators that had invaded their Nine Yuan Immortal Cultivation Realm, then their human side would really be in danger of being annihilated.
In this regard, Heavenly Monarch Changshan’s face didn’t show anything too worrying.
On the contrary, the corner of his mouth, instead, revealed a shallow smile.
Despite not being able to see his true face, at this moment, the crowd could clearly feel that Long Mountain Heavenly Monarch he was smiling.
“If the Demonic Beast side really dares to do that at that time, then I won’t hide it from you all, this seat is still begging for it.”
