Chapter 1833: Jiang Yunchong Is a Kunlun Realm cultivator?
If it was something on for auction, so be it.
Nevertheless, the Demonstone Engraving was the Kunlun Realm’s heritage. How could the realm’s treasure be lost to the hands of cultivators from another realm?
That was something Zhang Ruochen will never tolerate!
Jiang Yunchong said, “This Demonic Blood Ax Engraving Print is deposited by a cultivator in Tianjue Pavilion for auction. He does not need saint stones, but wants to exchange items that he needs now.”
“What items?” someone asked.
Jiang Yunchong said. “A Divine-class sword technique manual, hundred thousand year old sacred medicines, heaven-grade sacred pills, king-grade sacred pills, ancient sacred relics, Supreme Sacred Artifacts, or materials to create a Supreme Sacred Artifact. Anyone who can produce something that would satisfy him, the Demonic Blood Ax Engraving Print will belong to that person.”
All of the cultivators present shook their heads and sighed like a wilted eggplant.
The treasures Jiang Yunchong had mentioned were all extremely rare items, how could they even produce one out?
From a private room on the third floor, a red-skinned man with broad shoulders and frame walked out, holding a jade box in his hand, saying. “I have a heaven-grade sacred pill, the Guihong Pill.”
Whoosh!!
YunchongThe red-skinned man opened up the emerald box, and soon the powerful fragrance of the pill filled the entirety of Tianjue Pavilion.
In the box, that Guihong Pill, was like a pearl, full of luster and warmth as thousands of inscriptions flowed within it.
Amidst the resounding admiration and exclamation, there were also many avaricious gazes being cast.
Jiang Yunchong said. “If sir, you only have one Guihong Pill, it won’t be enough to exchange for the Demonic Blood Ax Engraving Print.
The red-skinned man looked rather disappointed as he put away the Guihong pill, and returned to his room.
A ghastly looking old man came out from a private room on the fourth floor and took out a crystal spar half a foot tall. Inside the spar was a strange silver flower.
“I have a hundred-thousand-year-old sacred medicine, could it be used to exchange for the Demonic Blood Ax Engraving Print?” the ghastly old man said.
Jiang Yunchong stared at one of the private rooms on the fifth floor, appearing to be communicating with someone.
A moment later, Jiang Yunchong shook his head, saying. “A single hundred thousand-year-old sacred medicine is obviously insufficient. If sir, you have more hundred-thousand-year-old sacred medicines, perhaps we can consider it.”
Even more hundred-thousand-year-old sacred medicines?
Those ancient sacred medicines were not Chinese cabbages, you know.
But, based on Jiang Yunchong’s gaze, everyone guessed that the seller of the Demonic Blood Ax Engraving Print is probably in the west side private room on the fifth floor.
What they did not know was, how could a figure like Jiang Yunchong, with his peerless cultivation, make such an elementary mistake?
After that, cultivators from the various private rooms showed up one after another. Some took out one-hundred-thousand-year-old sacred medicines, some took out top swordsmanship tomes, while some even took out a small piece of material for refining a Supreme Sacred Artifact.
It was like a Battle of Treasures, with each showing their own wares, opening the eyes of all of the cultivators present.
Of course, there were also a few low-key powerhouses that silently took note of those cultivators and treasures, as the thought of killing and seizing the treasures appeared in their minds.
A single Demonic Blood Ax Engraving Print had revealed the treasures hidden in many cultivators, and one could imagine, after tonight, a storm of blood will blow over the Eastern Region Holy City.
Zhang Ruochen stared at the private room to the east as he muttered to himself. “It seems like Xie Canghai had appeared at Tianjue Pavilion for the ‘Demonic Blood Ax Engraving Print. He should be making a bid I suppose?”
Sure enough, a moment later.
The door of the private room on the east side opened as Xie Canghai’s tall and proud figure walked out.
In an instant, all of the light and heat within Tianjue Pavilion were swallowed by Xie Canghai as all of the cultivator’s gaze all gathered onto him.
“I have three hundred thousand-year-old sacred medicine, and another Taiyi Primordial Stone, could it be used to exchange the Demonic Blood Ax Engraving Print?” Xie Canghai said.
“My goodness! Three hundred thousand-year-old sacred medicines?”
“Who is this person, to be such a loudmouth, he can’t be just bragging right?”
“Most hundred-thousand-year-old sacred medicine would generally gain intelligent sentience with powerful cultivation, how could a Saint King have three of them?
There were people in Tianjue Pavilion who were knowledgeable and explained Xie Canghai’s identity.
Suddenly, deep breaths could be heard, as many cultivators showed expressions of awe and fear.
Jiang Yunchong asked. “The seller wants to know how big the Taiyi Primordial Stone Mr. Xie is?”
Xie Canghai clicked the edge of his mouth, knowing that something was at play, so he took out a stone the size of a millstone.
The stone exuded golden brilliance, and unlike gold, there was no metallic luster. The light was extremely dazzling, and every light was like a razor-sharp sword.
All of the cultivators present closed their eyes and dared not look at it directly.
Zhang Ruochen held his breath and said. “Such a huge Taiyi Primordial Stone is enough to refine the initial form of a Supreme Sacred Artifact.”
Taiyi Primordial Stone was one of the ultimate substances of Five Elements.
The Ultimate Substances of the Five Elements is one of the top ten substances of the entire universe.
With three hundred thousand-year-old sacred medicines plus a Taiyi Primordial Stone, that seller was obviously tempted.
Zhang Ruochen did not wait any longer, as he pushed open the door of the private room. As he stood by the edge of the railing, he called out. “This prince also has a treasure, and I wonder if it can be exchanged for the Demonic Blood Ax Engraving Print?”
Immediately after, Zhang Ruochen took out Qi Sheng’s Godslaying Cross Shield and threw it below.
BAM!
The heavy Godslayer Cross Shield, like a cross made out of white boulder, with ancient divine blood stained upon it, slammed into the center of the hall. It was five stories tall and was extremely awe-inspiring.
The spirit of the Godslayer Cross Shield was tyrannical, and Zhang Ruochen could not control it, plus there were so many other unstable factors that made him decided to use it to exchange the Demonic Blood Ax Engraving Print.
“This treasure… is really quite something…”
Jiang Yunchong appeared under the Godslayer Cross Shield and gently touched it, a series of bloody lines appeared on the surface of the shield.
“For it to unleash such powerful divine aura without any saint Qi to rouse it, it is definitely a weapon with a profound background.”
“Could it be a Supreme Sacred Artifact?”
…
Jiang Yunchong’s ears twitched slightly, as he folded his fist and smiled. “Congratulations, the seller thinks that your weapon fits his needs quite well, and had agreed to exchange with you.”
“He agreed so quickly?” Zhang Ruochen was a little surprised.
The Godslayer Cross Shield itself was extraordinary, so much so that even a Supreme Saint would want to snatch it for himself, thus it was not strange that the other party was eager to exchange.
Xie Canghai was determined to win the Demonic Blood Ax Engraving Print, how could he let it fall into other’s hands?
A killing intent surged out of Xie Canghai’s body, causing all of the cultivators in Tianjue Pavilion to feel like they had fallen into an ice grotto, and all of them were trembling with fear.
“Youngster, what you have done today is overstepping your bounds!” Xie Canghai’s tone was extremely sullen.
Although the gap of cultivation between him and Xie Canghai was huge, Zhang Ruochen was not afraid of him, as he looked back at him, saying. “We are all buying treasures here using our financial resources and abilities, where did this prince overstep his bounds? Xie Canghai, you are in any case an elite of the Precept Domain realm, how are you that petty?”
BAM!!!
Xie Canghai slammed his fist on the railing, and suddenly the defensive wards and inscriptions within Tianjue Pavilion were all activated.
A powerful surge of saint force blasted out in all directions.
Zhang Ruochen was hit by one of the shock waves, and his body felt like it had been hit by a divine mountain as he took two steps back, his hair crown shattered, and his long hair rolled down.
Zhang Ruochen roared. “You old coot! I’m a secret disciple of Yanshen, you think I’m afraid of you?”
WHOOSH!!
Zhang Ruochen activated the crimson precept circuits from his leg left and roused it to both of his hands, and suddenly two burning clouds of flame appeared in his hands.
Xie Canghai retracted his saint aura and was a little surprised. “You’re a secret disciple of Yanshen?”
Zhang Ruochen snorted and said with a tough tone. “Xie Canghai, if you want to strike, I’m not afraid of you at the slightest. If you wish for a fight, then one of us will not leave to see another day.”
Yanshen was a god of the Fane of Merits and was also an authority in himself in the Heavenly Realm.
The Blackdemon Realm behind Xie Canghai was in the end, just a minor follower of the Heavenly Realm, and if he were to meet a Heavenly Realm cultivator of the same realm, Xie Canghai would need to lower his head.
A secret disciple of Yanshen itself was a lofty status, and naturally could not be offended.
Xie Canghai used telepathy to speak to Mister Godcliff and King Daxi. “Is this person really a disciple of Yanshen?”
Mister Godcliff frowned and said, “The number of direct disciples of Yanshen is so large that it is hard to say.”
King Daxi said. “The aura of this person is exactly the same as Yanshen. Moreover, that aura had divine power in it, and I suppose Yanshen had bestowed him an incredible treasure.”
“Was he a direct disciple of Yanshen?”
“Shang Ziyan is the only direct disciple of Yanshen, how did a second one pop up?”
A moment later, Xie Canghai retracted his killing intent as a smile appeared on his face, saying. “Since Your Highness is a secret disciple of Yanshen, we are all on the same side, and everything can be discussed.”
Zhang Ruochen smiled inwardly.
Pretending to be Yanshen’s secret disciple was Zhang Ruochen’s way to break out of this situation.
This move carried a great risk and had undoubtedly pushed him to the cusp of the storm, and he was in danger of being crushed at any moment.
“Your Highness, can we speak for a moment?” Xie Canghai initiated an invitation to Zhang Ruochen.
“I don’t think it is necessary.”
Be it the old coots like Mister Godcliff, Xie Canghai, Jueyan Hu, or King Daxi, a scion of heaven, all of them were extremely shrewd. If Zhang Ruochen were to come into close contact with them, he would definitely be exposed, and by then, he won’t even know how he had died.
So everything was touch and go.
Zhang Ruochen’s gaze landed on Jiang Yunchong below and asked, “Deal?”
“Deal.” Jiang Yunchong replied with a smile.
However, the moment he said the word “deal”, another voice from Jiang Yunchong rang out in Zhang Ruochen’s mind. “The Demonic Blood Ax Engraving Print is used to fish Xie Canghai out. To break the crisis in the Eastern Region Holy City, give the print to him. An Array Master is here and can hear our conversation. Don’t use telepathy to ask me why.”
A color of surprise flashed past Zhang Ruochen’s eyes.
His expression did not change, but a tidal wave seemed to have been kicked up in his heart.
“Is Jiang Yunchong really…”
Zhang Ruochen had this hunch when he first encountered Jiang Yunchong.
At this moment, Zhang Ruochen was even more certain that Jiang Yunchong was most probably a Kunlun Realm cultivator
What Zhang Ruochen was uncertain was if he was a reclusive powerhouse of Kunlun Realm, or was a scion of heaven that had woken up from his slumber from a hundred thousand years ago.
