Immortality and Cultivation: I Have Too Many Talents

Chapter 427 Jade Water and Golden Clear Sky (Seeking Subscriptions)

“Uncle-Master Xuanku, we encountered disciples from the Yan Kingdom’s Zhenyi Sect, Danxia Sect, and Jijian Sect in the secret realm.”

"There are also disciples from the Overlord Blade Sect and the Hundred Skills Sect. They seem to have been prepared, and they attacked us as soon as they saw us."

The disciples of the other six sects, along with their respective sect masters, reported similar things.

Most of them had just entered the secret realm and hadn't even had a chance to reunite when they were hunted down by the Yan Kingdom cultivators.

Moreover, it seems that the cultivators from the Yan Kingdom already knew that cultivators from the Song Kingdom had entered.

With a large number of people and an early rendezvous, they pursued and killed any Song Dynasty cultivators who were left out.

All the immortals present looked towards Immortal Xuanwen.

Xuantian Sect was the head of the seven sects of the Song Dynasty.

True Man Xuanwen is the person with the highest cultivation level here.

"First, take a headcount and treat the wounded. I will report this to the sect leader."

Master Xuanwen said in a deep voice.

He still cannot determine whether this secret place on the Gan River is a trap or a coincidence.

The loss of thirty-six disciples, who only stayed inside for twenty days, was truly a case of losing more than they gained.

Fortunately, the Xuantian Sect disciples were exceptionally strong individually, and only three of them perished.

The remaining six sects each lost five or six members.

Five members of Shen Xuan's Qingyun Sect also perished.

In addition to two ordinary disciples, there are three personal disciples.

This surprised Shen Xuan slightly, and he glanced at the surviving disciple.

Zhuang Xueqin.

An ordinary, seemingly unremarkable late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator using earth magic.

However, Shen Xuan would not be fooled by his appearance.

To emerge unharmed from the hidden realm of the Gan River must be due to some extraordinary ability.

The immortals used their magic to help their respective sects' injured disciples.

Everyone came to this secret realm with great enthusiasm.

I had hoped to harvest more medicinal materials for alchemy and spiritual items for forming the Golden Elixir.

As a result, after entering the secret realm, they were relentlessly pursued and attacked by the cultivators of the Yan Kingdom, suffering heavy losses.

To Shen Xuan's slight surprise, Xu Gaonong was completely unharmed.

"Thanks to Junior Brother Shen's Thunder Array Talisman, the cultivators of the Extreme Sword Sect realized the danger and dared not push too far."

Xu Gaonong explained with a smile.

Shen Xuan asked, "Did you find anything?"

"They're all worthless trinkets. It's a miracle we survived."

Xu Gaonong said it casually.

An irrepressible smile spread across his face.

Shen Xuan knew that Xu Gaonong must have gained something, but he was unwilling to say it.

"Congratulations, Senior Brother Xu."

Shen Xuan exchanged pleasantries with Xu Gaonong and inquired about the other disciples' gains in the secret realm.

Xu Gaonong said that he didn't pay much attention while on the run.

Among the disciples of the Qingyun Sect who were training in the secret realm, none of them reported any special gains.

However, the disciples of Xuantian Sect and Jinyang Sect killed several high-level demonic beasts.

After the true masters performed their magic to heal the disciples of the seven sects.

Shen Xuan came to Han Yu Zhenren's side.

"Master!"

"Yes, I know."

Master Hanyu nodded slightly.

"There will be a small live trading session later, you'll come with me."

"Yes."

More than 140 disciples of the sect stayed in the secret realm for twenty days.

Despite the tight schedule and the pursuit of cultivators from the Yan Kingdom.

There were still some gains.

The sect will handle the registration collectively.

The Seven Sects do not force their disciples to hand over all their belongings.

Some of the various gains were used by the disciples themselves.

Some were willing to hand over their contributions in exchange for sect contribution points.

Others entrusted the sect's True Person to trade the spiritual items they needed at the True Person's Small Gathering.

Two hours later.

Han Yu Zhenren took Shen Xuan to participate in the Zhenren Trading Conference between the Seven Sects and the Tongxin Chamber of Commerce.

The harvest from the secret realm will be sorted out by the sect's true master, and various rare and precious materials that the sect no longer needs will be put up for trade.

"A piece of Xuanjing Iron, weighing eight jin, is a second-grade top-quality magic weapon material."

"One Roaring Wind Beast Demon Core, Grade 2, suitable for refining a Wind Attribute Foundation Establishment Pill."

"One Heavenly Garment Fruit, 500 years old, second-grade superior quality, can be used as the main ingredient for longevity pills."

……

One by one, rare and precious materials from the secret realm were laid out, seeking an equivalent exchange.

If they couldn't find the spiritual items they wanted in a trade, they would sell them to the Tongxin Merchant Guild.

Shen Xuan stood silently behind Han Yu Zhenren.

Even he was somewhat dissatisfied with the spoils from this secret realm.

"A two-headed serpent, a top-grade second-tier creature, its body intact..."

Shen Xuan's heart stirred.

Currently, he can control three corpse beasts.

Second-tier superior Iron-Mouthed Crocodile, second-tier superior Thunder Beast, second-tier mid-grade Shadow Octopus.

They all used the Golden Body Elixir to enhance their attack and defense capabilities and increase their combat power.

However, the Shadow Octopus has a very weak foundation.

I can't keep up with his growth.

In combat, it seems somewhat useless.

Shen Xuan transmitted his voice to Master Hanyu.

"The two-headed dragon, bring it out and let me see it."

The True Man of Blazing Sun smiled slightly and summoned a two-headed dragon.

It was ten zhang long and weighed over a thousand jin. It had two identical snake heads, both covered with brightly colored patterns, and its eyes were cold and sinister.

Shen Xuan used the skills [Insightful Observation] and [Insightful Observation] to observe.

The two serpents were struck in their vital spots by the cultivator's flying sword, their necks slashed open, and they died.

Master Lieyang smiled and asked, "Fellow Daoist Hanyu, do you still have any Hanyu Pills?"

"I don't."

"I am Master Hanyu," he said in a cold voice.

Master Lieyang's expression hardened.

This was killed by several core disciples of the Golden Sun Sect working together.

As a result, one of the disciples was seriously injured.

These core disciples, when entrusting Master Lieyang with the transaction, frankly stated that the items to be traded were Core Formation spiritual items or Cold Jade Pills.

Seeing the young-looking Master Lieyang in a daze, Master Hanyu felt a surge of pleasure.

"My disciple is Shen Xuan!"

"The disciple is here."

"Look at this little snake, how many Cold Jade Pills is it worth?" Shen Xuan calculated in his mind.

His Iron-Mouthed Crocodile was auctioned off for 600,000 spirit stones.

Converted to Cold Jade Pills, that would be twenty pills.

However, the bloodline of the two-headed serpent is stronger than that of the iron-mouthed sea crocodile.

"Reporting to Master. The efficacy of the Cold Jade Pill usually decreases after taking twenty-four pills."

"This two-headed dragon is of good quality. I am willing to trade it for twenty-four Cold Jade Pills."

Master Lieyang said with dissatisfaction, "You brat, how can you be so stingy! Don't underestimate this two-headed serpent; it is a descendant of the ferocious beast Jiuying."

Shen Xuan was slightly taken aback.

He had seen the descendants of the Nine-Headed Serpent, a second-tier superior rank, with nine snake heads.

The two-headed serpent before them, though seemingly powerful, only had two heads.

He dared not question it and looked at Master Hanyu.

"So what? The Nine-Headed Serpent's bloodline is extremely rare!"

Master Hanyu said coldly, "Fellow Daoist Lieyang, twenty-four Hanyu Pills, whether you exchange them or not is up to you!"

"Hey!"

Master Lieyang smiled slightly, ignoring Master Hanyu, and said to Shen Xuan, "You are Shen Xuan, the successor of Fellow Daoist Hanyu, right?"

"Junior Shen Xuan greets True Man Lieyang."

Shen Xuan bowed respectfully.

The man before me, the True Man of Blazing Sun, has the face of a young man, but his real age is at least three hundred years old.

He is the second most powerful being in this realm after Xuanwen Zhenren, and is at the mid-stage of the Golden Core realm!

He dared not be rude.

"I have examined it. This two-headed serpent has a strong Nine Infant bloodline. Don't be fooled by its two heads; it can actually grow new heads as its cultivation level increases."

"Those disciples were lucky; the two-headed serpent was in a weakened state while shedding its skin. Otherwise, killing this fiend wouldn't have been so easy."

Shen Xuan was overjoyed.

It can even grow a snake's head!
That means he can plunder the Nine-Headed Serpent's innate skills from its blood essence.
Shen Xuan looked at Han Yu Zhenren, hesitating to speak.

As a mid-stage Golden Core cultivator, the fact that True Person Lieyang personally explained to him clearly meant that he wanted him to raise the price.

In front of the Seven True Immortals and the True Immortal of the Tongxin Chamber of Commerce, Shen Xuan had to give True Immortal Lieyang face, both morally and logically.

Otherwise, you would be offending him.

"Stop with the nonsense! Lieyang, tell me, how many Cold Jade Pills do we need in exchange?"

Master Hanyu asked.

Although his tone was somewhat harsh, he actually gave Master Lieyang a way out.

"Thirty-six, I suppose! That way I can give those disciples an explanation."

Master Lieyang pondered for a moment and said.

Master Hanyu nodded slightly.

Shen Xuan immediately understood, pointed out thirty-six Cold Jade Pills, put them into a medicine bottle, and handed them to True Person Lieyang with both hands.

Master Lieyang smiled and said, "Shen Xuan, you are quite good. You can come and visit the Golden Sun Sect when you have time."

"Yes."

Shen Xuan answered respectfully.

He then put the two-headed serpent into his beast pouch.

The rare and precious materials that appeared later were of lower quality and unremarkable.

A significant portion of them were sold off to the Tongxin Chamber of Commerce for the price of spirit stones.

The small meeting was about to end.

Shen Xuan used his divine sense to remind Han Yu Zhenren.

"I need the blood of a third-tier water demon. Does any fellow cultivator have any?"

Master Hanyu stepped forward, came to the center of the trading hall, and asked.

The real people present looked at each other in bewilderment.

A True Person laughed and said, "Fellow Daoist Hanyu, the human and demon races have been at peace for many years, where would you get the essence blood of a third-tier demon king!"

"Exactly! Don't just say you want it, I want it too!"

Another real person said.

"I also want a third-tier demon king's demon core to refine a spirit pill and break through my bottleneck!"

The men burst into laughter.

It's a rare opportunity to tease Master Hanyu.

Master Hanyu kept a straight face and a calm expression.

It seems that this was expected.

I mentioned it casually because of Shen Xuan's request.

A third-tier demon king, whose strength is similar to that of their real counterparts.

Even they, without special reasons, do not have materials for the Demon King.

“Spirit beasts are also acceptable.”

Master Hanyu added a sentence.

At this moment, Master Xuanwen suddenly coughed softly.

This means they have something to say.

Once everyone quieted down.

Master Xuanwen said in a deep voice, "Our sect's Jade Water Golden-Eyed Beast passed away peacefully a few years ago."

Upon hearing this, everyone was taken aback.

The Jade Water Golden-Eyed Beast of the Xuantian Sect has the bloodline of both the divine dragon and the unicorn. It resembles the unicorn but also possesses some characteristics of the divine dragon, including a dragon's mouth, a lion's head, fish scales, an ox's tail, tiger's claws, and deer antlers. It can ride the clouds and mist and cleave water into the mist.

It was the mount of a certain True Lord of the Xuantian Sect back then.

"Fellow Daoist Hanyu, are you interested?"

A third-tier water-type spirit beast that died of old age, possessing the bloodlines of a divine dragon and a qilin.

Shen Xuan was certainly interested.

Master Hanyu understood Shen Xuan's intentions.

"Brother Xuanwen, what do you want to exchange?"

"What can Fellow Daoist Hanyu offer?"

At Hanyu Zhenren's instruction, Shen Xuan took out a large medicine bottle.

"These are seventy-two Cold Jade Pills."

This alone amounts to a million spirit stones.

Master Xuanwen remained silent.

Shen Xuan placed the top-grade flying sword he had obtained from Lu Zhanpeng on the table.

"A top-grade water-attribute flying sword."

Master Xuanwen remained silent.

Shen Xuan took out the last set of Thunder Array Flying Talismans.

"One hundred and eight exquisite [Nine Heavens Divine Thunder Talismans]".

Master Xuanwen stared intently at Shen Xuan.

"Brother Xuanwen, that's enough. It's just a drop of essence blood, and my disciple has even brought out his most treasured possessions!"

"Master Hanyu couldn't help but say."

The items Shen Xuan took out were all special and unique second-tier spiritual items, which were very difficult to purchase in the outside world.

If it were auctioned, it would be worth two million spirit stones.

Master Xuanwen smiled and said, "Fellow Daoist Hanyu, we both know the answer. A third-tier spiritual item should naturally be exchanged for an equal value."

"I heard that the remains of the Spirit Tortoise of True Immortal Cangming are in the hands of your disciple."
