Chapter 23: The Biggest Gains
Chapter 23: The Greatest Harvest
With Jiang Chengxuan’s current cultivation level, if he chose to utilize the Arctic Divine Light, theoretically he could use it twice, but in reality, he could only use it once at most.
After all, he couldn’t possibly drain himself of his true essence in the middle of a battle.
That would purely be an act of seeking death.
Once something changed, then he would not even have a chance to escape.
So.
With his current cultivation level, once he decided to use the Arctic Divine Light, then he would only use it once at most.
If Shen Ruyan was unable to seize this opportunity he had created for her, then he would have to consider retreating.
Shen Ruyan obviously didn’t expect Jiang Chengxuan to send her a voice message, and when she heard it, she first froze and almost didn’t get hit by that Black Xuan Heavy Snake’s attack.
Fortunately, she reacted quickly and avoided it in the nick of time.
At that moment, she did not have any nonsense, directly to Jiang Chengxuan voice back a “good” word.
Hearing this, Jiang Chengxuan did not hesitate.
He found an opportunity to take advantage of that Black Xuan heavy snake attack Shen Ruyan, hands pinch out a seal, and then do hold the bottle shape.
Buzz!
In an instant, a white light suddenly erupted from Jiang Chengxuan’s hands.
It was silent and breathless.
The Black Xuan Heavy Serpent that was frantically attacking Shen Ruyan simply didn’t have time to react, and its huge snake body was instantly hit by that white light.
Click, click, click…
In just the blink of an eye, the Black Xuan Heavy Snake’s massive body was covered in a layer of frost.
It didn’t move a muscle.
Seeing this, the light of Shen Ruyan’s eyes on the opposite side of the room suddenly shrunk slightly.
“This is? The Great Perfection Realm’s Arctic Divine Light!”
As a full-fledged Foundation Establishment Elder of the Shen Clan’s Immortal Clan, Shen Ruyan was naturally more than familiar with this second-order mid-grade art of her family.
She knew how difficult it was to cultivate this Second Order Middle Grade Art to the Great Perfection Realm.
As a result, now ……
How long has Jiang Chengxuan been practicing?
Adding it all up, it’s only been three years at most, right?
And in the process, he also had to consolidate the realm he had just broken through and switch to cultivating the Foundation Establishment realm’s techniques.
That time was undoubtedly even shorter.
How on earth did he manage to do that?
Could it be that he was still one of those rare artistry geniuses?
With these thoughts flashing through her mind, Shen Ruyan wouldn’t dare to hesitate this time, and there was a clanging sound behind her back.
Then saw a flying sword with a trace of thunder light, and it appeared above the head of the Black Xuan Heavy Snake.
It is precisely one of Shen Ruyan’s current cards, a second-order top-grade lightning flying sword.
The name was Mantra Light.
Only hearing a giggling sound, the Second Grade Upper Grade Mantra Light Sword, blasted into the body of that Black Xuan Heavy Serpent, and before it could break free from the layers of frost, it split its entire huge snake body directly into two halves!
“Ow!”
An extremely mournful and miserable cry was violently emitted from the air.
Immediately followed by a booming sound, the two huge sections of the Black Xuan Heavy Snake’s corpse heavily landed on top of that mountainside, smashing out two huge deep pits in that mountainside.
Luckily, it didn’t hurt the Silver Laurel Tree.
Otherwise, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan would have really lost a lot this time.
They glanced at each other.
Then he heard Shen Ruyan say, ”Elder Jiang, just now it was really thanks to you.
If it wasn’t for you, today we wouldn’t have said anything about decapitating this sinful beast, I’m afraid that even if we wanted to preserve ourselves, it would probably be extremely difficult.”
Her words were not an exaggeration.
Although with their strength, a Black Xuan Heavy Serpent of the top grade of the second rank would want to leave them behind completely that was impossible.
However, having them suffer a little bit of injury would be no problem at all.
Originally, Jiang Chengxuan thought that Shen Ruyan would say something about him cultivating the Arctic Divine Light to the Great Perfection realm.
He had even thought of an explanation.
As it turned out, Shen Ruyan didn’t mention anything in this regard at all, but instead talked about his merits in this battle.
This caused Jiang Chengxuan’s heart to be slightly relieved while at the same time, for Shen Ruyan this woman, he could not help but also gain a few more points of goodwill.
At that moment, he couldn’t help but smile and shake his head, politely saying:
“Elder Ruyan you overpraised, the person who really made a great achievement is you, I just happened to help out.”
“Hehe, Elder Jiang you are really modest.”
Shen Ruyan smiled and continued, “Alright, you and I shouldn’t be polite to each other here, in short, today you and I were able to kill this Black Xuan Heavy Serpent, you and I each have half of the credit.
According to our initial agreement, the materials on the body of this Black Xuan Heavy Snake’s corpse when we turn around, as well as the materials on the bodies of those demonic beasts from before, you and I will share them equally.”
As the words came to this point, Shen Ruyan’s gaze couldn’t help but turn to the silver osmanthus tree.
“In fact, compared to this Silver Laurel Flower Tree that is about to be promoted to a Second Order Lower Grade Spiritual Root, as well as that Second Order Spiritual Vein that is about to be birthed from it, those demonic beasts that you and I have killed are actually nothing.
They are, in fact, the biggest gain for you and I on this trip.”
Hearing Shen Ruyan’s words, Jiang Chengxuan’s heart was aghast for no reason.
He knew very well, now that Shen Ruyan was talking about this, how great that value really was.
It wasn’t an exaggeration to say that a second-order spirit vein that was about to take shape and a heaven and earth spirit root that was about to be promoted to the second-order lower grade were completely enough to breed a foundation-building family.
If they were to be brought to the market and auctioned off, with Jiang Chengxuan’s current insights, he wasn’t even sure what kind of price they would fetch.
The benefit was simply too great.
It was big enough to even turn two friends who knew each other well against each other.
It even made the two Foundation Establishment Families go to war directly.
Therefore, at this moment, Jiang Chengxuan, in his heart to say that there is not a little defense, that is absolutely impossible.
He had even prepared for the worst.
At the same time, he was also considering whether he should leave the Shen Clan of Immortals in order to keep himself safe for the duration.
In case they saw the wealth and wanted to turn against him, he would be in real danger.
He absolutely couldn’t take any chances, and even more so, he couldn’t allow himself to be in an environment where he could lose his life at any time.
This was his usual code of conduct for the past hundred years, and it was also the main reason why he had been able to stay alive in this Immortal Cultivation World before his golden finger was activated.
“Elder Jiang, are you worried about something?”
Suddenly, Shen Ruyan turned her head to look at Jiang Chengxuan.
Jiang Chengxuan was taken aback in his heart.
But then before he could reply, Shen Ruyan had already continued to speak:
“Are you worried that our Shen Clan of Immortals will be unfavorable to you because of the second-order spirit veins and second-order spirit roots in front of you?”
Saying this, Shen Ruyan could not help but smile.
“I can’t guarantee that other Immortal clans will or will not have such a thing, but in our Shen Clan Immortal Clan, there will never be such a thing.
Because this is a rule that our Violet Mansion Ancestor had set long ago, and it is also the foundation of our Shen Clan of Immortals in this Cloud Country Immortal Cultivation World.
The reason why you chose to join our Shen Clan in the first place, apart from those treatments I promised you before, regarding our Shen Clan’s reputation in the outside world, I think it should also be the main reason why you chose to join our Shen Clan, right?”
Thank you for sending the monthly ticket ah, before I did not pay attention to, is my fault, here sincerely to express my gratitude to you!
