The four strongest forces in Descent Mountain City were ranked at the bottom in the Profound Energy Land. It was not surprising that they did own any divine rock ores where they could mine divine rocks. They had to use prominent divine crystals to exchange for divine rocks.
For such forces, it was rare for them to accumulate more than 50,000 divine rocks in wealth. Hence, it was a big deal that they were willing to bring out 20,000 to 30,000 divine rocks.
The Qian family had no choice but to bring out 30,000 divine rocks in order to appease Duan Ling Tian. However, the other forces were only doing so to curry favor with Duan Ling Tian whom they thought was a rudintary god from the Glorious Heaven Sect. In their opinion, soone like Duan Ling Tian would definitely beco a prominent figure in the Eastern Ridge Mansion in the future.
All of them hoped to rule over Descent Mountain City by forging a connection with Duan Ling Tian. Hence, they tried to outdo each other to invite Duan Ling Tian over to their respective estates. Needless to say, they were shocked when they heard Duan Ling Tian’s words.
“Alright, stop fighting. All of you prepare 20,000 divine rocks, and I’ll take turns visiting all of you…”
The leaders of the strongest forces in Descent Mountain City were rendered speechless by these words. How could a disciple of the Glorious Heaven Sect be so shaless?
The leaders were speechless. How could the disciple of the Glorious Heaven Sect be so shaless? However, there was nothing they could do since none of them dared to offend Duan Ling Tian.
“We’ll wait for you to visit us, Young Master Duan,” ng Qi You said as he forced a smile on his face. However, his expression darkened imdiately as soon as he turned away. 20,000 divine rocks were half the fortune that the ng family had accumulated, and yet, they had to give it to Duan Ling Tian with no obvious benefits.
Needless to say, the mbers of the Cloudy Morning Sect and the Heaven Martial Sect felt the sa way. All of them forced a smile on their faces when they bade farewell to Duan Ling Tian, but their expressions turned gloomy as soon as they turned away.
…
“Although there’s no obvious benefit, it’s still worth spending so many divine rocks to forge a connection with a talented young man like Young Master Duan,” ng Qi You said to the other mbers of the ng family in an attempt to console them. He continued to say, “Think about it. A peerless talent like him will definitely be a prominent figure in the Eastern Ridge Mansion in the future. I’m sure he won’t reject our request for help in the future. This is the best chance for us to forge a connection with him. It’d be too late once he becos famous.”
ng Qi You managed to lighten the mood of the others with his words. They felt better after listening to him.
..,
On the other hand, the mbers of the Cloudy Morning Sect remained silent during their journey back to their estate.
…
As for the mbers of the Heaven Martial Sect, Ouyang Wu Ding, the interdiate god, said, “Perhaps, Young Master Duan is just joking. He might not even visit us. If he doesn’t visit us, there’s no need for us to give him the 20,000 divine rocks.”
The mbers of the Heaven Martial Sect secretly hoped that Duan Ling Tian would not visit them. Alas, their hope shattered when Duan Ling Tian showed up at their doorstep to claim the 20,000 divine rocks.
…
“Next stop is the Cloud Morning Sect.”
After spending a few days in the Heaven Martial Sect, Duan Ling Tian left for the Cloudy Morning Sect. During his ti in the sect, he wandered around the estate and spoke to various disciples to obtain information about the areas around Descent Mountain City and the Eastern Ridge Mansion.
Before going to the Heaven Martial Sect, he had spent a few days in the ng family estate as well. During his ti there, he had learned many things, and he had even discussed pill refinent with ng Qi You, the ng family’s divine pill alchemist.
Refining pills was much more difficult in the Realms of Gods compared to the Devata Realm. Hence, it was difficult for Duan Ling Tian to refine pills here using the thods he had learned in the Devata Realms.
At that ti, Duan Ling Tian had sighed and deliberately said, “I wonder who ca up with such a difficult thod to refine pills in the Realms of Gods,” Duan Ling Tian muttered to himself as he sighed.
Although ng Qing You did not think Duan Ling Tian understood much about pill refinent, he still patiently explained, “It seems like Young Master Duan didn’t spend ti talking to the divine pill alchemist in the Glorious Heaven Sect. The pill refining thods in the Realms of Gods were given to us by supre powerhouses after they observed the changes of heaven and earth. As the years passed, the refining thods naturally evolved into different branches. For , I use divine flas to extract the essence from the dicinal herbs to refine pills. If I fail in extracting the essence, all my efforts would be in vain. It takes years of experience and practice to master the technique.”
Thanks to ng Qi You, Duan Ling Tian gained a better understanding of pill refinent in the Realms of Gods. Although the thods in the Realms of Gods and Devata Realms were very different, they still shared so similarities.
With ng Qi You’s guidance, Duan Ling Tian even tried to refine pills using the thods in the Realms of Gods. However, due to his lack of experience and his average comprehension of the law of fire, his attempts ended in failures. Nevertheless, ng Qi You was still greatly impressed by Duan Ling Tian’s talent and skills. Moreover, he discovered Duan Ling Tian’s comprehension of the law of fire was only slightly inferior to his.
The truth was Duan Ling Tian did not focus on comprehending the law of fire at all. His comprehension of the law of fire was mostly obtained during his ti in the chamber of laws in the Title Temple.
…
anwhile, when Duan Ling Tian did not appear after a few days had passed, the mbers of the Cloudy Morning Sect grew certain that Duan Ling Tian was just joking about the 20,000 divine rocks.
In the morning.
In the Cloud Morning Sect’s main hall.
A rudintary god said to Sima Kong Ming, “Sect Leader, it seems like we took the matter too seriously. Young Master Duan must have been joking at that ti.”
Another rudintary god nodded. “That’s right. After all, 20,000 divine rocks are nothing to soone from a prestigious sect like Young Master Duan. It seems like we’ve misunderstood him.”
Sima Kong Ming nodded in agreent when he heard those words. “The disciple of the Glorious Heaven Sect is indeed honorable.”
However, as soon as Sima Kong Ming’s voice fell, a voice rang from outside the main hall.
“Sect Leader, Young Master Duan is here. We’ve arranged for him to stay in the first courtyard in the east wing.”
In the Cloudy Morning Sect, the guest courtyards were located in the east wing and the west wing of the estate. The west wing was used to accommodate ordinary guests while important guests were hosted at the east wing.
Even the leaders of the other major forces in Descent Mountain City would be given the second courtyard in the east wing to stay in if they were to visit. Usually, only advanced gods would be arranged to stay in the first courtyard in the east wing. Duan Ling Tian was the only rudintary god in the history of the Cloudy Morning Sect who was arranged to stay in the first courtyard in the east wing. After all, Duan Ling Tian’s background aside, he was stronger than Qian Shu Huan, an advanced god from the Qian family. With his background and strength, he was more than qualified to stay in the first courtyard in the east wing.
“He’s here?”
Upon hearing this announcent, the expressions of Sima Kong Ming and the two elders changed drastically.
Sima Kong Ming smiled wryly and said, “It seems like we have underestimated the temptation of 20,000 divine rocks.”
The two elders could only smile helplessly in response to these words.
…
anwhile, Duan Ling Tian was naturally unaware of the trio’s conversation in the main hall. At this mont, he was sitting in a rocking chair in the east wing’s first courtyard, basking under the sun. Two won were serving him at the mont: one was feeding him grapes while the other was massaging his shoulders. These two won were not female attendants, but they were descendants of the two elders that had been arranged to serve Duan Ling Tian.. After all, if Duan Ling Tian took a liking to one of them, the Cloudy Morning Sect would naturally benefit from it.
