474: 382 Exchange Spiritual Treasure_1 474: 382 Exchange Spiritual Treasure_1 “Taoist Friend Xu, do you an to say that a cultivator can have multiple great opportunities?”
Shen Long inquired.
At nine years of age, the Loose Cultivator exchanged a Fourth-Order Puppet Beast with Qianji True Monarch and spent a fortune at the auction — and to think, he was just a Loose Cultivator.
Could it be that he asked Tianji Hermit to divine his fortune twice and both tis the predictions were of great opportunity?
“Yes, that’s the case.
However, I have yet to encounter such a cultivator.
Your great opportunity lies in the volcanic region of the Southern Border.
You need to find it on your own, and it’s possible soone else will get there before you and seize your opportunity, so you need to set off as soon as possible.”
Tianji Hermit cautioned.
“I understand, thank you for the reminder, Taoist Friend Xu.”
Shen Long offered his thanks.
“It’s what I should do.
Whether you can find the great opportunity or not depends on your own ability.”
Tianji Hermit said.
After chatting for the ti it takes to drink a cup of tea, Shen Long bid farewell and left.
He hadn’t gone far when a familiar voice called out: “Taoist Friend Shen, long ti no see.”
Shen Long turned around to see two n and a woman approaching him.
Xin Hai was among them.
“Taoist Friend Xin, long ti no see.”
Shen Long greeted.
“I am Xin Hao, and this is my wife, Chen Ziyi.
We have long wanted to et Taoist Friend Shen, and at last, we have the opportunity to see you in person.”
A literati-looking man in white robes said with a smile.
“Taoist Friend Xin is too kind.
I’ve long heard of both of your reputations, and seeing you today, it is clear your fa is well-deserved.”
Shen Long spoke warmly.
Xin Hao and Chen Ziyi both had Nascent Soul Middle Stage cultivation and were high-ranking figures in the Xin Family, renowned for many years.
“Taoist Friend Shen, may I have a word in private with you?”
Xin Hao asked politely.
“There is a teahouse ahead, let’s talk there.”
Shen Long suggested.
Without any objections, Xin Hao and the others followed Shen Long forward.
Soon, they arrived at the entrance to a nine-story green attic with the words “Yuming Tower” written in golden characters on the signboard.
It was a teahouse run by the Spirt Control Sect, and its staff, from the shopkeeper to the servers, were all disciples of the sect.
A ruddy-faced old man in a green robe hurried out and ca to Shen Long, bowing deeply: “Disciple Chen Qing pays respect to Master Shen.”
“Arrange a private room; I have sothing to discuss with Taoist Friend Xin.”
Shen Long instructed.
“Yes, Master Shen.
The ninth floor has been reserved for you, please follow .”
Chen Qing led the way personally.
When they reached the ninth floor, Shen Long saw five guest rooms.
Chen Qing opened the door to one of the rooms, and the four of them entered.
They sat down around a green tea table and began to chat leisurely.
Before long, Chen Qing ca in with a green tray, placing spiritual tea and pastries on the table.
“Stay by the stairway and don’t let anyone disturb us.”
Shen Long ordered.
Chen Qing acknowledged and left, closing the door behind him.
“After many years, Taoist Friend Xin has advanced to the Nascent Soul Stage.
Congratulations!”
Shen Long offered his felicitations.
“I am far behind compared to Taoist Friend Shen.”
Xin Hai said with a wry smile.
He had known Shen Long when they were both Core Formation cultivators.
Now, while he only had early Nascent Soul Stage cultivation and was sowhat known in the cultivation world of the Northern Sea, Shen Long was at the Nascent Soul Middle Stage, renowned throughout the region, having slain the Profound Yin Ghost Mother alone and erged victorious in a sparring match with Lihuo True Monarch.
After so light conversation, Xin Hao got down to business: “Taoist Friend Shen, I heard that you sparred with Taoist Friend Xu and defeated him, winning a Fourth-Order Spirit Fla!
We would like to buy this fla from you for a high price.
Materials for crafting spiritual treasures, thousand-year-old spiritual dicines, and rare materials from heaven and earth are all negotiable.”
“Sorry!
I have already refined that Spirit Fla and cannot sell it.”
Shen Long declined tactfully.
Xin Hao wasn’t surprised, as intelligence indicated that Shen Long already possessed one Fourth-Order Spirit Fla.
Acquiring another would greatly enhance his alchemy efficiency.
“We hear that Taoist Friend Shen killed the Profound Yin Ghost Mother and obtained the spiritual treasure, the Profound Yin Crutch.
We are very interested in this treasure and would like to trade for it.”
Xin Hao spoke earnestly.
Chen Ziyi flicked her sleeve, and a sweep of purple light swept across the floor, revealing five spiritual treasures.
Shen Long glanced over and smiled, shaking his head; these five treasures were too ordinary.
Chen Ziyi turned her hand over, and with a flash of white light, a jade ruler radiating white brilliance appeared in her hand.
“The Profound Jade Ruler, an ice attribute spiritual treasure.
It won’t be a bad deal for you, Taoist Friend Shen.”
Chen Ziyi said.
Shen Long still shook his head; for him, owning another spiritual treasure wasn’t particularly aningful.
“Additionally, we’ll add two Fourth-Order early-stage Green Wind Roc demon cores.
Please do us this favor, Taoist Friend Shen.
If there’s ever a ti you need the Xin Family’s help, just ask.”
Xin Hao said politely.
“Taoist Friend Xin, is it really worth all this trouble for just one spiritual treasure?”
Shen Long asked, puzzled.
“It is very much worth it!”
Xin Hao insisted.
After hesitating for a mont, Shen Long agreed and took out the Profound Yin Crutch, handing it to Xin Hao.
Seeing the Profound Yin Crutch, Xin Hao’s eyes lit up.
He took out a green jade box, handed it to Shen Long, and Chen Ziyi also handed over the Profound Jade Ruler to him.
Shen Long put away the Profound Jade Ruler and the green jade box, and continued to chat casually with Xin Hao and the others.
After a while, Shen Long took out a law disk shimring with spiritual light and input a spell.
His brows furrowed.
“We still have so matters to attend to, let’s talk again another ti, Taoist Friend Shen.”
Xin Hao said, taking the hint.
“Sure.”
Shen Long agreed and made several gestures on the Law Disk.
Xin Hao and his two companions stood up and left.
Not long after, Chen Qing ca in.
“Give a different private room.
Later, Master Nephew Qian will bring a friend over.
Take them directly to the private room,” Shen Long instructed.
Chen Qing acknowledged the request, and guided Shen Long to another private room.
Shen Long sat quietly by the tea table, waiting.
Within half a quarter of an hour, there was a knock at the door, “Uncle Shen, Senior Han has arrived.”
Shen Long flicked his sleeve, and the door swung open.
Qian Dafu and Han Lun walked in.
“Taoist Friend Han has reached the Late Stage, congratulations!” Shen Long remarked, feeling the powerful Spirit Pressure emanating from Han Lun.
Han Lun sat down.
Chen Qing carried in a green tray, placed the Spiritual Tea and pastries on the table, and then left.
Qian Dafu also left, closing the door behind him.
“I heard you had a friendly contest with Taoist Friend Xu and managed to defeat him.
You’ve improved so much in just a few decades, Taoist Friend Shen,” Han Lun comnted aningfully.
During the great battle between the Human Clan and the Barbarian Tribe, Shen Long killed several Nascent Soul Early Stage Barbarian Cultivators.
Iron Tail Scorpions contributed significantly.
Han Lun didn’t pay much attention to Shen Long before, but was surprised to see how much Shen Long’s strength had increased after only a few decades.
“Taoist Friend Xu did not give his all.
It was just a friendly exchange.
In a life-or-death battle, I would not be his match,” Shen Long replied modestly.
“Taoist Friend Shen, have you ever heard of Ziyang Monarch?” Han Lun asked.
“Of course, I’ve heard of this senior.
He is a fifth-grade Alchemist, who was active tens of thousands of years ago.
I heard he ascended to the Realm of the Spiritual Pivot,” Shen Long said.
Han Lun flipped his right hand, and with a flash of purple light, a small cauldron with constantly shifting purple light appeared in his grasp.
“The Spiritual Treasure, Ziyang Cauldron, was used by Ziyang Monarch himself for Alchemy,” Han Lun stated.
“What is your intention with this, Taoist Friend Han?” Shen Long asked in puzzlent.
“I’ve heard you possess Corpse Fire from a Nascent Soul Stage Corpse King.
I want the Corpse Fire.
However, the value of Corpse Fire does not match the Ziyang Cauldron; I would need more than just that,” Han Lun said.
“Corpse Fire!” Shen Long wasn’t surprised.
He had eliminated two Nascent Soul Stage Corpse Kings and obtained two clumps of Corpse Fire.
The Corpse Fire, also of the fourth tier and containing deadly poison, was not yet amalgamated with his Qinglian True Fla.
For those who practice Corpse Refinent or Poison Cultivation, fourth-tier Corpse Fire was a valuable asset that could enhance their power.
“That’s right.
Being an Alchemist, you must know the value of the Ziyang Cauldron.
If you want it, you’ll need to offer sothing substantial,” Han Lun said.
“I have no interest in the Ziyang Cauldron!” Shen Long shook his head outright.
He already possessed a Qianyang Cauldron.
Han Lun was initially stunned, but then it dawned on him that Shen Long must already have a Spiritual Treasure level alchemy furnace, which is why the Ziyang Cauldron didn’t appeal to him.
He frowned, having assud that Shen Long would eagerly offer so valuable items in exchange for the Ziyang Cauldron.
It seed he had underestimated Shen Long.
Han Lun swept his sleeve, and a streak of golden light passed by.
Suddenly, the floor was covered with a pile of items: fourth-tier Demon Cores, millennium-old Spiritual dicines, fourth-tier Monster Beasts Materials, fourth-tier tals, and more.
“Taoist Friend Shen, choose whatever you like!” Han Lun offered.
Shen Long glanced over the items, noting that Han Lun had brought quite a few treasures.
“Heavenly Demon Talisman!” Shen Long’s gaze settled on a talisman that shimred with Spiritual Light, which bore the tiny image of a demon wolf.
“You have a keen eye, Taoist Friend Shen.
This is the Heavenly Demon Talisman personally crafted by the Heaven Rune Sect Leader.
It seals the Spirit Soul of a fourth-tier Middle Stage Silver-Eyed Demon Wolf.
The Divine Skills of the Silver-Eyed Demon Wolf are formidable.
Tens of thousands of years ago in the Southern Border Cultivation World, a fifth-tier Silver-Eyed Demon Wolf appeared, causing great harm and killing a Soul Transformation Cultivator.
It was only after several Soul Transformation Cultivators joined forces that they were able to kill it,” Han Lun explained.
Shen Long nodded and his gaze moved to a green Crystal Core.
“This is the Crystal Core of a Nascent Soul Middle Stage Flower Demon, suitable for setting up large formations or cultivating rare Spiritual dicines and Spirit Fruits,” Han Lun clarified.
Shen Long’s gaze shifted to a red jade box containing three red Demon Cores.
“These are from a fourth-tier Four-Winged Fire Ant!” Han Lun introduced.
“I want the Heavenly Demon Talisman, the Flower Demon Crystal Core, the Demon Cores of the Four-Winged Fire Ant, two fourth-tier Yin Beast Demon Cores, and two fourth-tier Green Wind Roc Demon Cores,” Shen Long declared.
Han Lun’s eyebrows furrowed as he said, “Taoist Friend Shen, one clump of Corpse Fire cannot be exchanged for so many items.”
“Who said I only have one clump of Corpse Fire?” Shen Long said with an indifferent smile.
Han Lun was taken aback at first but quickly caught on, his face lighting up with elation as he agreed to the deal.
Shen Long took out a Golden Gourd and handed it to Han Lun.
After verifying it was genuine, Han Lun excitedly declared, “Deal!”
By assimilating these two clumps of Corpse Fire, his strength would greatly increase.
Corpse Fire could taint treasures, and since he practiced the “Heavenly Corpse Scripture,” he could incorporate the Corpse Fire into his body.
Other Nascent Soul Cultivators doing so risk contaminating themselves, which could lead to a toxic death.
Shen Long nodded and collected the items he had chosen.
“Taoist Friend Shen, I would like to have a friendly contest with you.
What do you think?” Han Lun asked, his eyes ablaze with eagerness.
Having defeated Lihuo True Monarch, if Han Lun could beat Shen Long, it would give him a significant sense of accomplishnt.
“I’ve been quite busy recently.
Let’s talk about it so other ti,” Shen Long tactfully declined.
“Then let’s agree on so other ti,” Han Lun accepted.
After chatting idly over a cup of tea, Han Lun took his leave.
