On the vehicle,
Jiang Yan did not pay attention to the commotion outside the car. At this mont, he was closing his eyes to rest and organizing the gains from this trip.
The first was the point rewards from the mission.
Since one was a personal bounty mission, and the other was the fifty points for the task of finding the child.
Due to having stopped the sacrificial incident of Divine Sakura Bio, the reward had increased to six hundred points.
Jiang Yan took two hundred; the rest belonged to Zhao Yan who ca as support.
After all, the one at the Law Seed Stage, Kurokawa Sōsuke, was taken down by her.
The second gain was the Cataclysmic Lotus he created by entering tribulation with his own body.
Thanks to the external support from Zhao Yan, the tribulation force he endured was not much, and it rely blossod into a small bud.
He planted it on Kurokawa Ryuuji.
That fellow, as an offspring of the Ancient Talisman level, barely counted as having so fortune.
This was also Jiang Yan’s first ti acting as a fisherman, step by step guiding the fish into the net, opening the sacrificial space, and finally harvesting everything from him.
Even though he achieved a complete "plucking every feather" on "Yan", due to Kurokawa Ryuuji being too weak, and the harvesting being done too early, he barely made the bud bloom, giving birth to a Cataclysmic Lotus no larger than a thumb.
Like it was underdeveloped.
"Forget it, small as it is, it’s still cute."
Jiang Yan consoled himself with the logic that even a mosquito has at, and he wasn't in a hurry to absorb it—he would wait for next ti and gift it to another genius.
As long as it was carefully cultivated, it would eventually yield rich results!
Though Kurokawa Ryuuji had died, he still sent Jiang Yan a generous gift.
A bronze mirror containing fragnts of the Eight Span Mirror, and the corpse of a Celestial Ghost.
The forr originated from the Amaterasu of White Sakura mythology, possessing the ability to open space—it was the storage artifact Jiang Yan needed most at the mont.
However, it could only store items in a fixed location, which was sowhat inconvenient.
The latter, Jiang Yan did not know much about. He only knew that the concept of the earliest Celestial Ghosts ca from “Tian”, commonly referred to as Heaven.
According to the Mozi: Shangxian Middle chapter,
[Leading the myriad people under Heaven to revere Heaven and serve ghosts, loving and benefiting the people—thus, the Celestial Ghost rewarded him, and made him the Son of Heaven.]
The earliest Queen Mother of the West was also called the Fierce Ghost of Heaven.
Of course, the Celestial Ghost corpse before him did not possess such high status, but it still indicated an extraordinary origin.
It was a higher lifeform—formless and intangible, able to traverse different Diseased Domains, peer into fate, and deduce the future.
Similar to a Heavenly Demon, but even more advanced.
Only, it had already died while still in its juvenile form, unable to be tolerated by the world, and was acquired by Kurokawa Ryuuichi.
“This Kurokawa Ryuuichi really is blessed with extraordinary fortune, acquiring so many treasures in a row.”
Jiang Yan rubbed his chin, very much wanting to send the other a flower.
The return on investnt would be sky-high.
He only regretted his own lack of strength.
Like the sealing of Divine Sakura Building this ti—if he had been at the Law Seed Stage, he wouldn’t have needed to go through so much trouble. A slight manipulation of karma would have sufficed.
Kurokawa Sōsuke wouldn’t even have seen his face before dying without a trace.
“These two items—one requires gathering the remaining fragnts, and the other must be refined through ritual. For most people, they’re of little use, but I don’t need to go through such trouble.”
Jiang Yan chuckled. The dark tendrils in the chaotic sea spread out, enveloping both the [Eight Span Mirror Replica] and the [Celestial Ghost Corpse], nurturing them together and transforming them into a golden fruit.
Crack, crack!
The fruit hatched, and from it erged a translucent dark-gold tiny skeleton, its eye sockets burning with black flas, with two small horns growing on its head.
It didn’t look terrifying—on the contrary, it seed a bit silly, like a chibi skeleton.
It hugged an ancient bronze mirror with both hands, the mirror’s surface shimring with an illusionary hue, as if reflecting an endless void.
“Glug!”
After its birth, it looked around at the dark chaotic sea, clutching the mirror tightly in fear.
“Glug!”
It only stood up happily when it sensed Jiang Yan’s will, waving its little skeletal claws in greeting.
“What a cute little fellow.”
Jiang Yan smiled, and related information surfaced in his mind.
[Celestial Ghost Treasure Mirror]
[Spirit Treasure-type Offspring]
[Quality: Perfect]
[Description: The Celestial Ghost possesses the ability to traverse worlds and steal the origin of planes. This ability aligns with the spatial path of the Eight Span Mirror fragnts, successfully giving birth to a brand-new innate Spirit Treasure. It has escaped the source control of the Eight Span Mirror and stolen part of the [Takama-ga-hara] path, allowing it to block fate deduction beneath the level of the [Heavenly Official].
Inside the Celestial Ghost Treasure Mirror, a cubic ter of treasure space can be opened for storage, and this space will continue to expand as strength increases.
It can open a fixed fifteen-cubic-ter space, but it requires maintenance by the Celestial Ghost Treasure Mirror. Otherwise, it will be obliterated by spatial turbulence. Living beings can be placed inside.
The Celestial Ghost Treasure Mirror can utilize spatial abilities to perform short-range teleportation, spatial slicing, trapping enemies within the mirror, etc. The consumption is massive, so please use with caution.
By feeding it with treasures of spatial, starry sky, fate, and karma attributes, the Celestial Ghost can use the mirror in its hand to search Diseased Domains and, through its own concealnt abilities, analyze Diseased Domain rules and pre-deploy offspring—[Mirror of the Heaven-Stealing Ghost].
After absorbing enough origin from different planes, it can lock coordinates and construct a Celestial Ghost Bridge to enter via the Historical Long River.
Collecting enough plane origin and Eight Span Mirror fragnts can promote the juvenile form into a true Celestial Ghost.]
[A fisherman needs the right fishing rod.]
“With this, I can set up in the Diseased Domains in advance, nurture nurous Cataclysmic Lotuses, and promote my own growth!”
Jiang Yan's eyes lit up with delight. He didn’t know if it was an illusion, but this was like a pillow being delivered right when he wanted to sleep. Was it not too...
Coincidental?
Was he blessed with great fortune, and his wishes coming true?
Jiang Yan frowned. Ever since experiencing the Monkey King Temple instance, he had beco sowhat suspicious and paranoid.
But after thinking carefully, he found nothing unusual. After all, it was because of his grandfather that he chose to take this mission.
To reap such rewards was purely unexpected.
Grandfather was his lucky star!
Thinking of this, he looked at the requirents for the [Mirror of the Heaven-Stealing Ghost], and his teeth ached a little.
“Glug!”
Especially when the little Celestial Ghost offered the mirror as if presenting a treasure, seemingly wanting its creator to use it to the fullest.
Jiang Yan cleared his throat and really wanted to say...
I can’t afford it!
Spatial-type, starry sky, fate-type treasures—weren’t they all absurdly expensive?
Now the family had a new gold-devouring master. The God of Poverty truly followed him everywhere.
‘If you don’t risk the child, you can’t catch the wolf. If I can successfully harvest a Diseased Domain, the gains will be far greater!’
Jiang Yan comforted himself. No matter how hard it was, the child must not suffer.
He would save points to buy it after returning!
Tap, tap, tap! ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ꜰʀᴏᴍ novel·fıre·net
A knocking sound ca from the glass window of the speeding vehicle.
Jiang Yan opened the window. The wind howled as a Shadow-Winged Serpent retracted its wings and crawled in with a delicate jade box in its mouth.
After dropping it, it transford into a shadow and disappeared.
He opened the box to find a wondrous plant, entirely dark green and resembling a porcelain doll, tied with a red string.
A faint fragrance spread through the car, invigorating just by sll.
Zhao Yinman glanced at it, then withdrew her gaze.
Life extension—sothing of little value to her.
As long as her soul wasn’t eroded by ti, she would be neither old nor dead.
Jiang Yan examined it carefully and found a note tucked at the side. On it was written: Unfasten the red string and it will run wild. Grind it into juice for consumption to extend life.
The side effect was disorder in the five viscera, which needed to be paired with dicinal pills that harmonize the viscera, placed in the hidden layer of the box.
Jiang Yan chuckled, “Gong Yuntao is indeed a delightful person.”
Before leaving Divine Sakura Bio, he had already received a ssage from Gong Yuntao, thanking him for rescuing his grandson. A banquet had been prepared, just waiting for his honored arrival.
One should never strike a smiling face.
Jiang Yan was in a rush to use it for his grandfather and didn’t want to engage in pointless socializing, so he declined politely, asking Gong Yuntao to care for his grandson first. The banquet could wait, and he would send his n to collect it.
Gong Yuntao, being a sharp man, agreed without hesitation and asked Jiang Yan to provide a code phrase for the exchange.
After all, anyone seeking a life-extension item was surely in urgent need.
Rambling on would only be annoying.
“Zhi People Grass is already so miraculous. I wonder what the Zhi People and Zhi Horses would be like?”
Jiang Yan grew curious. Two hours later, he returned to Pan’an County.
While his grandfather slept, he quietly ground the Zhi People Grass into juice and fed it along with the pills into his mouth.
Watching the fla of his Life Lamp grow stronger, he used the Longevity Azure Lotus to gently harmonize the elderly couple’s health.
“That finally solves the urgent crisis.”
Jiang Yan let out a long breath. Although two years wasn’t much, still...
Zhi People Grass, stripped of its life-extending properties, was rely a Transcendent item nurtured in an ordinary Turbid Stream Diseased Domain.
He had only beco a Transcendent for a week and was already capable of facing a Law Seed opponent head-on.
“No need to wait two years. In a few days, I can start harvesting resources from the Diseased Domain.”
Jiang Yan’s gaze deepened. Once he purchased the materials from the headquarters mall, he could attempt to deploy the [Mirror of the Heaven-Stealing Ghost],
And begin...
The path of the mastermind behind the Diseased Domains of the myriad heavens!
