"First, behind Lady's Pavilion is a formidable force called the Eternal Trade Association."
Xiao Xiang couldn't help but remind Xia Liu of the facts.
"Eternal Trade Association, I've heard of this power."
Bai Jue conveyed to Xia Liu.
"Oh? Elder Bai also heard about it?"
Xia Liu's interest grew even stronger.
Even Bai Jue of the Divinity Transformation Stage knows of it.
It seems that this matter is not simple!
"The Eternal Trade Association, as its na suggests, has been handed down since ancient tis, belonging to a large underground power."
"You an the Eternal Trade Association is not sothing that can be exposed?"
Such underground forces must be very mysterious.
"Yes, the Eternal Trade Association specializes in unpresentable transactions, like selling bodies for the powerful nearing their end to possess, or offering top-grade cauldrons for their empowernt..."
Even Bai Jue had lingering fears about this association.
If he guessed correctly, the background of the Eternal Trade Association lies in Central Continent.
There are more secret branches in the four realms.
Behind this association, there might be a strong figure of the Divinity Transformation Stage!
Upon hearing this news, Xia Liu was also startled.
There's actually a strong figure of the Divinity Transformation Stage protecting the Eternal Trade Association.
This matter is not simple at all!
"I didn't expect the background of Lady's Pavilion to be so terrifying!"
Xia Liu sighed.
"No worries, even if the Eternal Trade Association has a strong figure of the Divinity Transformation Stage, they wouldn't act rashly; at that level, every move is under the watchful eyes of other top powers."
Bai Jue explained.
"Because the Eternal Trade Association is neither righteous nor demon path, its existence is awkward; if they don't do anything extre, even the Cultivation Alliance would turn a blind eye."
Xia Liu nodded: "So, if I intercept the association's branch in the Northern Realm, it wouldn't matter?"
"Ha! You're overthinking. The branches of the Eternal Trade Association are nurous; attempting to intercept them is simply wishful thinking. Additionally, if you touch this ticking bomb, endless trouble may follow."
Back then, Bai Jue also ca into contact with the Eternal Trade Association.
But he didn't clash with them; it was mutually indifferent.
In essence, Xia Liu's cultivation is too low.
He can't yet clash with the Eternal Trade Association.
If he dares to act against the association, they would surely handle it seriously.
In the future, Xia Liu might be hunted by powerhouses from various realms.
So Bai Jue's advice is to avoid conflict with them, if possible, at least for now.
If Xia Liu cultivates to the Divinity Transformation Stage, it wouldn't matter.
"Regarding the background of the Eternal Trade Association, I only know a bit; what I can tell is that there might be a strong figure of the Divinity Transformation Stage behind it!"
Xiao Xiang explained.
"Divinity Transformation Stage powerhouse!"
Upon hearing this level, Ling Feng instantly shriveled.
That is indeed a pinnacle existence within the realm, having reached an extraordinary and transcendent state.
How can ordinary cultivators contend with that?
"Elder Xiao, you're right, but would the Eternal Trade Association dispatch a Divinity Transformation Stage powerhouse just for a cauldron?"
"Indeed, they wouldn't, but try not to escalate the matter too much; otherwise, even a Heavenly Immortal descending can't save you."
"The top-notch powerhouses of the Eternal Trade Association are probably in Central Continent, unless I overturn the association's branch in the Northern Realm; otherwise, how could I attract their attention?"
Xia Liu smiled.
"Being able to ntion Central Continent, I assu your background is not simple either!"
From this conversation, Xiao Xiang discerned.
Xia Liu is unusual!
Having lived for decades, even Xiao Xiang remains quite vague about Central Continent.
With her cultivation, she has only heard of the na, without any further understanding.
"Haha! Rest assured, even if the Eternal Trade Association investigates later, I should be able to handle it!"
Xia Liu smiled confidently.
Letting things develop until even the Divinity Transformation Stage is moved.
Presumably, by then Xia Liu has reached Nascent Soul Stage or even Divinity Transformation Stage.
As of now, the Eternal Trade Association poses no threat!
"You are very confident!"
Xiao Xiang was left speechless, unable to stop even Xia Liu despite the Eternal Trade Association.
The few second-tier forces in the Northern Realm may probably not change his mind either.
"Continue, Elder Xiao, what's the other formidable force?"
The Eternal Trade Association is rely a platform; the next formidable force is the direct buyer of Ling Feng.
"What I'm about to say, you need to be prepared for, as it is an existence capable of direct impact on you!"
"Go ahead, which force in the Northern Realm is it?"
Xia Liu responded indifferently.
"Northern Realm's Qi Family!"
"Qi Family? Are they well-known?"
Xia Liu inquired.
Having just arrived in the Cultivation Realm, the internal situation is quite vague to him.
Besides the four realms and Central Continent, he only knows of the Cultivation Alliance.
"Tsk! Tsk! In the Northern Realm, and you're unaware of the Qi Family..."
Xiao Xiang couldn't resist the sarcasm.
"Elder Bai, is Qi Family well-known in the Northern Realm?"
Xia Liu conveyed.
"The Qi Family is the backbone of the Northern Realm, one of the few ancient families passed down till today."
"Really, so impressive?"
Xia Liu was slightly shocked.
Does that an what he'll be facing is possibly the Northern Realm's pinnacle existence?
"The Qi Family once had a Great Power during the demon invasion, who advanced and retreated with the Cultivation Alliance; that battle made Qi Family famous, and later they beca honored guests of the Cultivation Alliance. Three thousand years ago, Qi Family had a Nascent Soul Stage cultivator serving in the alliance, acting as a liaison for the Northern Realm, holding a high position."
"In that case, Qi Family is indeed the righteous pillar of the Northern Realm!"
Being able to serve in the Cultivation Alliance and be responsible for the liaison of major forces in the Northern Realm, Qi Family is indeed a pinnacle existence in the Northern Realm.
"Yes, Qi Family is ranked among the top in the Northern Realm."
Bai Jue didn't deny this fact.
Qi Family is truly strong.
But in the eyes of the Divinity Transformation Stage, Qi Family is just the Qi Family.
In a world where strength rules, a strong fist is the true principle.
"Alas, it seems I need to take this seriously."
Xia Liu sighed.
"Qi Family likely doesn't have a cultivator of Divinity Transformation Stage, so don't worry too much."
"Elder Bai, even a Nascent Soul Stage cultivator, I can't confront head-on now..."
Xia Liu felt a bit like crying, realizing only a Divinity Transformation Stage powerhouse can draw Elder Bai's attention.
"That's indeed true, but since the opponent is Qi Family, openly they shouldn't easily take action to destroy Imperial Sky Gate."
"But they can easily destroy ..."
"No worries, the Qi Family mber buying Ling Feng from the Eternal Trade Association likely doesn't have Nascent Soul Stage cultivation."
Bai Jue expressed his guess.
Once reaching Nascent Soul Stage, the opponent would not consider purchasing Ling Feng with the Yin Elent anymore.
"In this case, I can't easily target Qi Family mbers either, right..."
Xia Liu worriedly said.
"No problem, as long as you don't kill the opponent, Qi Family won't dispatch Nascent Soul Stage cultivators."
Thinking of sothing, Bai Jue continued: "Additionally, Qi Family being the righteous pillar, buying a female cultivator with Yin Elent from the Eternal Trade Association would be cautious about reputation."
