Zhao Yuqian, Chen Qinglin, Li Yunxiang, Shen Long, Li Changqing, Chen Yu, and over thirty other Soul Transformation Cultivators were sitting in a stone pavilion colored like azure, sipping tea and chatting leisurely.
In addition to the Qianling Sect and the Li Family, so subordinate forces of the Nine Flas Sect also received invitations to attend Xu Sheng’s Void Refinent ceremony, bringing along nurous Soul Transformation Cultivators for the occasion, with the Nine Flas Sect dispatching quite a few of them to entertain their guests.
There were gatherings for Alchemists, Artifact Refiners, and Talisman Makers, as well as Brewers—anyone could attend whichever gathering they preferred.
“Taoist Friend Shen, I heard you possess a mutated fifth-order Flood Dragon.
If I may be so bold to ask, how did it mutate?”
Li Yunxiang asked with curiosity.
“At the fourth-order, it consud a ten-thousand-year-old Qixia Jade Lotus, and then it devoured the corpse of another fifth-order Ice Flood Dragon, which led to its fortunate mutation,”
Shen Long explained.
“Fortunate?
Taoist Friend Shen really enjoys making jokes.
It’s extrely difficult for Spirit Beasts to mutate—it’s one in ten thousand,”
Chen Yu simply did not believe it.
“Are you suggesting, Fairy Chen, that I fed it a Seven-Leaf Jade Lotus Pill?
I wish I could!
You are not unaware of how precious the Seven-Leaf Jade Lotus is.”
Shen Long said with a wry smile.
“Indeed, a ten-thousand-year-old Qixia Jade Lotus can induce mutation in Spirit Birds and Beasts below the fifth order.
However, that Ice Flood Dragon must have had a high purity of bloodline, right?”
Zhao Yuqian analyzed.
“True, that Ice Flood Dragon could already speak the human tongue.
After my Flood Dragon consud its body, its purity of bloodline increased, and after ingesting the ten-thousand-year-old Qixia Jade Lotus, the mutation occurred, which even I did not anticipate,”
Shen Long said.
“With a mutated fifth-order Flood Dragon, Taoist Friend Shen has few equals among cultivators of the sa rank,”
Li Changqing praised.
“There is always a higher mountain, and beyond a person, there is always another person.
Had Chen Qian and his group been slightly more advanced in their cultivation, I would have t my end.
They lost to because they were unaware of the Ice Flood Dragon’s Divine Skills,”
Shen Long explained.
The unknown is indeed the most frightening; Chen Qian lost because he did not know the Ice Flood Dragon’s Divine Skills.
While Li Changqing and the others were aware that Shen Long had a mutated fifth-order Flood Dragon, they were unaware that he also possessed powerful Spirit Birds, Beasts, and Spirit Insects like the Thunder Roc, Nine-Headed Ghost Pigeon, Gold-Winged Fire Ant, Fire Qilin Beast, and Soul-Eating Cicada.
“That’s true – the Combined Attack Technique is quite formidable.
The five fifth-order Puppet Beasts I summoned were all destroyed by the Combined Attack Technique utilized by Chen Qian and his group.
They didn’t expect the Qianling Sect to have a master like Taoist Friend Shen,”
Zhao Yuqian agreed solemnly.
“If Fairy Zhao crafted her Puppet Beasts with Five-Colored Divine Clay, their resilience would be stronger, and Chen Qian’s group wouldn’t have destroyed your fifth-order Puppet Beasts so easily,”
Li Changqing comnted.
“Taoist Friend Shen jests.
Five-Colored Divine Clay is incredibly precious, a dream material for any Puppet Master to refine with.”
Zhao Yuqian said with a wry smile.
“Fairy Zhao could try raising a Five-Colored Worm to the fifth order and use the Five-Colored Divine Clay it excretes to craft Puppet Beasts,”
Shen Long suggested.
“Even if I had a fifth-order Five-Colored Worm, doesn’t it need to consu a huge amount of tal ores to excrete the Five-Colored Divine Clay?
Where am I supposed to find a vast quantity of tal ores for it to devour?”
Zhao Yuqian said with a bitter mouth.
“Indeed!
The cost of raising a fifth-order Five-Colored Worm is too high.
It’s better to attend more underground auctions; perhaps one could obtain Five-Colored Divine Clay,”
Chen Yu stated.
During his journey into the Secret Realm, Shen Long had acquired a good amount of Five-Colored Divine Clay, but he chose not to barter it away; such a splendid material wouldn’t be exchanged lightly.
Besides crafting Puppet Beasts, using Five-Colored Divine Clay to create a Sky-Reaching Spiritual Treasure would also yield an impressive defense.
“It’s difficult, Five-Colored Divine Clay is too prized.
Taoist Friend Li, I’ve heard that during the last journey into the Secret Realm, your Li Family cultivators caught a fifth-order Five-Colored Worm,”
Zhao Yuqian inquired.
“Yes, my clan uncle caught it.
The creature is quite timid; it nearly got away.
Who knows when it will excrete the Five-Colored Divine Clay.”
Li Changqing said.
After chatting for a good half an hour, Shen Long and the others gradually took their leave.
“Fairy Chen, please wait a mont,”
Shen Long called out to Chen Yu.
“Taoist Friend Shen, what is it?”
Chen Yu casually asked.
“Fairy Chen, I would like to request an audience with Senior Song.
Could you possibly introduce ?”
Shen Long took out an azure jade box and handed it to Chen Yu.
Chen Yu opened the jade box and found an Enlightening Pill inside.
Surprise flashed briefly in her eyes, and she asked in confusion, “Taoist Friend Shen, without telling what it’s about, I cannot make an introduction for you.
There are too many Void Refining Cultivators wishing to et my master.”
In recent tis, a multitude of Void Refining Cultivators had co to seek advice from Golden Lotus True Monarch, hoping for a divine prediction of opportunity, but the True Monarch mostly declined.
As such, it was even harder for Soul Transformation Cultivators to get an audience.
Shen Long took out another azure brocade box and passed it to Chen Yu.
Chen Yu opened the brocade box and found a Golden Lotus Command inside.
A flash of surprise passed through Chen Yu’s eyes as she nodded and said, “No problem, that’s the rule established by my master.
Forget about the Enlightening Pill.”
In so ways, the Golden Lotus Command serves as a trade currency, with its issuance determined by the Golden Lotus True Monarch, who naturally needs to be credible.
Since Shen Long is a disciple of the Qianling Sect and ca with a Void Refining Cultivator, Chen Yu was even less likely to neglect him.
“It’s just one Enlightening Pill.
Fairy Chen, please accept it!”
Shen Long said with indifference.
The King of Hell is easy to et, but little devils are troubleso to deal with.
“This won’t do, we must stick to the rules.
That’s the regulation of my master, and I cannot break it on my own.
How about this?
I’ll exchange it for one Azure Jade Token, which I issue myself.
One Azure Jade Token can be used to request a divination from once, and you can use it to trade with other cultivators.”
Chen Yu whispered.
Shen Long considered for a mont and then agreed.
Chen Yu took out a square, azure-colored token with the words “Azure Jade” inscribed on the front.
Shen Long accepted the Azure Jade Token and followed Chen Yu to a quiet estate, where he successfully t the Golden Lotus True Monarch.
“Junior of the Qianling Sect, Shen Long, pays respects to Senior Song.”
Shen Long bowed respectfully, his deanor reverent.
“Master, Taoist Friend Shen has a Golden Lotus Command.”
Chen Yu took out the Golden Lotus Command and handed it to the Golden Lotus True Monarch.
The Golden Lotus True Monarch scrutinized it for a mont, nodded, and said, “Young Friend Shen, what would you like this old man to divine for you?”
“Junior wants to divine for opportunities.”
Shen Long spoke.
“State your date and ti of birth, as well as your life’s treasure so that my divination will be more accurate.”
The Golden Lotus True Monarch instructed.
Shen Long complied, revealing the truth.
The Golden Lotus True Monarch flipped his right hand, and with a flash of golden light, a Law Disk with a golden lotus pattern erged in his hand, its spiritual energy fluctuations indicating that it was a middle-grade Sky-Reaching Spiritual Treasure.
He injected a spell into it, making a series of gestures; his fingers calculated as he periodically inserted spells.
The golden Law Disk emitted a piercing scream as a beam of golden light shot out from it, transforming into a massive golden lotus floating in mid-air.
The Golden Lotus True Monarch sent another spell into the golden lotus, which exploded, turning into a myriad of cryptic golden characters.
They swirled and converged into a miniature golden Flood Dragon, circling ceaselessly mid-air.
Chen Yu’s face was filled with shock—this was a sign of a great opportunity.
With a flick of the Golden Lotus True Monarch’s sleeve, the golden Flood Dragon turned back into a spread of golden characters floating in the air.
Shen Long recognized these characters as heavenly stems and earthly branches, but he didn’t understand their specific aning.
The Golden Lotus True Monarch continued to gesture and calculate.
After a short while, he retracted the spells and the golden characters dispersed.
He produced a golden Jade Slip and placed it against his forehead, a beam of golden light shining there.
He took down the Jade Slip and handed it to Shen Long.
“You are destined for a great opportunity, this is the clue.
Go and find it yourself!
Rest assured, we diviners cannot snatch the opportunities of those we divine for, or we’ll face backlash from the heavenly order.
Let be clear, your great opportunity will not wait for you indefinitely.
It might be claid by another cultivator first,” he spoke slowly.
“Thank you, Senior Song.
Junior understands,” Shen Long gratefully accepted the Jade Slip, his face full of joy.
“If there’s nothing else, you may leave now.
Chen Yu, see the guest out,” the Golden Lotus True Monarch instructed.
Chen Yu responded and personally escorted Shen Long away.
The Golden Lotus True Monarch took out a sparkling golden Law Disk and infused it with a spell, and Zhao Yan’s voice arose: “Daoist Friend Song, there’s soone who wishes to et you.”
“Daoist Friend Zhao, didn’t I tell you?
I’ve said that I’m not receiving visitors,” the Golden Lotus True Monarch showed displeasure.
“Don’t be angry, Daoist Friend Song.
Fairy Wang is a disciple of Master Fengling.
I wonder if you’d be willing to see her,” Zhao Yan said.
“A disciple of Master Fengling?” exclaid the Golden Lotus True Monarch.
Master Fengling was one of the top ten Loose Cultivators of the Human Clan on the Green Lotus Continent with a Cultivation at the middle stage of Unity, his whereabouts unpredictable.
“Yes!
I wouldn’t disturb your cultivation for an ordinary Void Refining Cultivator,” Zhao Yan explained.
“Fine, I’ll et her then!” the Golden Lotus True Monarch conceded.
“Great, I’ll bring Fairy Wang over,” Zhao Yan sounded jubilant.
The Golden Lotus True Monarch agreed, putting away the golden Law Disk.
