Immortality and Cultivation: I Have Too Many Talents

Chapter 459 Divine Feathers, the King of Birds

Chapter 459 Divine Feathers, the King of Birds (Seeking Subscriptions)

The Bai family patriarch opened the medicine bottle and scanned it with his divine sense.

"Foundation Pill?"

A glint of light flashed in the eyes of the Bai family patriarch.

He hadn't expected Shen Xuan to produce so many Foundation Establishment Pills in one go.

Thirty in total.

The Foundation Building Pill is far less valuable than the Longevity Pill.

However, it is equally important to the Bai family.

Don't even mention Baijiazhai.

Even cultivation families affiliated with sects struggle to obtain Foundation Establishment Pills.

"This is a Foundation Establishment Pill refined by my master, True Person Hanyu. It is entirely refined using water techniques, and its medicinal effects are one or two parts stronger than those of fire-based elixirs."

Shen Xuan said calmly.

"Water-based Foundation Building Pill?"

The Bai family patriarch's eyes flickered, guessing that True Person Hanyu had refined many Foundation Establishment Pills.

Foundation Establishment Pills are a form of hard currency in the cultivation world.

The Water-Based Foundation-Building Pill has better medicinal effects and is almost never seen on the market.

The Bai family patriarch scanned the area again with his divine sense.

Some of these Foundation Building Pills had eight Dao patterns on their surface, indicating they were of the finest quality.

With so many Foundation Establishment Pills obtained, ordinary cultivation families will inevitably rise to prominence as their number of Foundation Establishment cultivators increases significantly.

Even the Bai family needs to stockpile some Foundation Establishment Pills for clansmen with spiritual cultivation talent.

Previously, the Bai family acquired it through a trade with a caravan.

It requires a massive amount of medicinal herbs and monster materials.

“Fellow Daoist Shen, you are indeed sincere.”

The Bai family patriarch pondered for a moment before speaking.

Shen Xuan smiled without saying a word.

"I still wish to trade two Longevity Pills."

"I will keep these Foundation Establishment Pills safe for you."

"Regarding the Longevity Pill, I would appreciate it if Fellow Daoist Shen could devise a plan."

Shen Xuan solemnly said, "Ancestor, I will do everything in my power to obtain two Longevity Pills for you."

"How about we agree on a ten-year term?"

"Within ten years, I will find a way to obtain two Longevity Pills and give them to the Ancestor."

"Okay! It's a deal!"

The two of them each made a vow to Heaven.

The Bai family patriarch immediately imprinted a cultivation technique jade slip and handed it to Shen Xuan.

The value of these Foundation Building Pills is slightly less than that of the two Longevity Pills.

But Shen Xuan has already shown his sincerity.

If the Bai family patriarch is unwilling, this deal will have to be called off.

Having achieved his goal, Shen Xuan was about to leave.

The Bai family patriarch called out to him.

"Fellow Daoist Shen, rest for the night. Tomorrow I will take you to see Fellow Daoist Xiaoyue; we have something to discuss."

"What's the matter?"

The Bai family patriarch told Shen Xuan that they had discovered a demonic realm a thousand miles away from Zixia Ridge.

There is a high chance that there are high-level monsters inside.

There might even be Tier 3 magical beasts.

"A third-tier magical beast? Isn't that very dangerous?"

The Bai family patriarch explained, "Fellow Daoist Xiaoyue and another demon king are skilled at discerning the scent of the wind."

"They went to scout ahead first. Even if there are third-tier magical beasts, they can simply avoid them."

"The Demon Realm contains many rare and precious materials, as well as rare magical medicines and Core Formation demonic creatures that are rarely seen in the outside world."

Shen Xuan did not express his opinion on the spot.

"I need to consider this matter carefully."

They returned to the accommodations arranged by Cheng during the day.

Shen Xuan performed the "Good Fortune and Avoidance of Misfortune Technique" several times in a row.

Multiple instances of moderate misfortune occurred.

"Although there is no danger to life, it may damage the foundation."

Shen Xuan thought for a moment.

He went with the Bai family patriarch to meet the two demon kings.

Multiple friends have multiple roads.

There's no need to team up to venture into the Demon Realm.

"Let's see what the two demon kings need."

"If they have something good, perhaps we can trade with them."

……

The next day.

The Bai family patriarch led Shen Xuan to the Demon King Xiaoyue Fox Cave.

"Shen Fei greets Fellow Daoist Xiaoyue."

Shen Xuan transformed into Shen Fei's appearance and bowed respectfully.

Howling Moon Fox is a huge white fox.

Although it cannot take physical form, it can transmit its spirit and voice.

"It's you! I recognize you!"

Howling Moon Fox stared at Shen Xuan, and a powerful pressure suddenly descended upon him.

However, Shen Xuan remained calm and composed, chatting and laughing as if nothing had happened.

"A Body Refiner at the Dharma Aspect Realm!"

No wonder he walked side by side with the Bai family patriarch.

It turns out that his body refinement realm has also broken through to the Dharma Aspect realm.

The Bai family patriarch introduced Shen Xuan.

After hearing that Master Shen Xuan, True Person Hanyu, had become a third-order water-based alchemist.

Howling Moon Fox's attitude was noticeably better.

"Fellow Daoist Shen, please wait a moment, another fellow Daoist is coming."

"Howling Moon Fox transmitted his voice."

"it is good."

Shen Xuan responded.

He had no intention of entering the Demon Realm.

However, getting to know one more demon king wouldn't hurt.

Now, he has no shortage of resources for cultivation.

If we're talking about what we truly need.

It's still a third-tier water-attribute monster.

He needs demon cores, demon beast meat, and demon beast blood essence.

Before long, a demon king-level pressure descended upon the cave where the three were.

"Three-tailed Beast, we're here."

Howling Moon Fox beckoned.

The arrival was extremely fast.

After stopping, its true form was revealed.

It is an extra-large tabby cat with three tails.

A crimson glint flashed in Shen Xuan's eyes.

"Three-tailed civet cat?"

"A descendant of the mythical nine-tailed cat?"

Xiaoyuehu introduced the three people.

"Shen Fei greets Fellow Daoist Three-Tailed!"

Shen Xuan spoke humbly and first clasped his hands in a gesture of respect.

The three-tailed tabby cat transmitted its voice, saying, "Fellow Daoist Shen, you are too kind."

The four greeted each other and took their seats.

The conversation quickly turned to exploring the Demon Realm.

Shen Xuan declined, citing important matters to attend to.

"If you two fellow Daoists have any treasures you wish to sell, I, Shen, am willing to do so on your behalf."

Shen Xuan explained his purpose.

"Spirit stones are not something we urgently need."

The Demon King cultivates based on instinct.

Devouring demonic beasts, absorbing the essence of the sun and moon, and activating bloodline talents.

Although a sacred place or temple is also needed.

However, spirit stones are rarely used.

"How about we take a look at the tradable treasures first?"

Shen Xuan suggested. It is precisely because of the differences in race and their differing views on the value of spiritual objects that they have greater trading value.

Shen Xuan rarely comes here.

I have quite a few good things on hand.

It was obtained from Xiao Jingsong as a low-grade spiritual weapon flying sword.

The corpse of the electric ray demon fish that was just killed.

Shen Xuan believed that the two demon kings on the other side would definitely find it useful.

Only when their strengths are similar can they sit down face-to-face to trade.

Howling Moon Fox took out a spirit mirror.

"This is the Taiyin Mirror. I used my natal elixir fire to condense the essence of Taiyin, and it took more than a hundred years to complete."

"A top-grade magic weapon that can immobilize the spirits of second-tier Netherworld creatures, forcing them to reveal their true forms."

Shen Xuan nodded.

This Taiyin Mirror is especially effective against demonic cultivators in magical battles.

It can subdue a large number of ghostly spirits and spirits.

Unfortunately, it wasn't of much use to him.

Then, Xiaoyuehu took out more than a dozen Moon Spirit Pearls.

She also condensed the essence of the moon.

The effect is similar to that of the Emperor's Dew.

It is a great tonic for the cultivation of demonic beasts.

It can be used for breakthroughs in the major realms of demonic beasts.

The three-tailed tabby cat took out a divine feather of the Bird King, radiating spiritual light.

Although it is unknown which bird king it originated from.

However, this divine feather of the Bird King, displaying a dazzling spiritual light, possessing its own unique Daoist charm, and exuding a powerful aura, must have an extraordinary origin.

"This is the natal divine feather of a descendant of a divine bird, which can be used to refine wind-attribute spiritual artifacts."

Upon hearing this, Shen Xuan's heart stirred.

He was a water-based cultivator.

Although it has been expanded to include ice magic and lightning magic.

However, there are still limitations in the battle of wits.

Its power is greatly reduced when it is far from water.

If we could replicate the legendary Five Fires and Seven Birds Fan.

Combat power will inevitably increase significantly.

Shen Xuan thought for a while.

The two demon kings brought out some really good stuff.

Unfortunately, he hardly needs it now.

If we only consider the transaction value...

But it's not cheap either.

"The treasures of you two fellow Daoists are indeed extraordinary. I wonder if you two would be willing to trade them?"

Shen Xuan thought for a moment.

They took out the body of the electric ray demon fish.

For him, the flesh of a water-attribute demon beast was merely a means to refine spiritual energy using the [Gnawing on All Things] skill.

It is far less precious than demon cores and essence blood.

You can use high-quality or top-grade monster meat as a substitute.

It's simply a matter of compensating for quality with quantity.

"I do!"

The three-tailed tabby cat practically drooled when it saw the electric ray.

“Fellow Daoist Three-Tail, my intention is to exchange this fish for your Bird King Divine Feather, plus Fellow Daoist Howling Moon’s Taiyin Mirror and Moon Spirit Pearl.”

Shen Xuan said it bluntly.

"what!"

The three-tailed tabby cat looked at the howling moon fox.

A pleading look appeared in his eyes.

Shen Xuan's request was not excessive.

What he took out was the corpse of a fake demon king, stripped of its demon core and essence.

Its value is definitely higher than that of the Three-Tailed Tabby Cat's King Feather.

If we don't add the Moon Fox's Taiyin Mirror and Moon Spirit Pearl...

He was at a disadvantage.

Such fake-core demonic fish cannot be found in the desolate wilderness.

Howling Moon Fox glanced at the corpse of the Electric Ray Demon Fish.

His eyes darted around a few times.

"Fellow Daoist Shen, you are truly skilled!"

"Add another lightning protection suit."

"Two! I want one too!"

The three-tailed tabby cat interjected.

Shen Xuan thought for a moment.

“Alright. However, the materials for the lightning-proof armor will be provided by the two of you.”

For him, making two lightning protection suits would only take a few days.

"The better the material, the better the lightning protection effect."

Shen Xuan explained.

The Bai family patriarch took out a piece of Yuan Tong Xuan Jin, which Xiao Yue Hu condensed into silk using his natal Dan Huo (a type of fire-based energy), to serve as the main material for the lightning-proof armor.

Finally, Shen Xuan reached an agreement with them.

Shen Xuan traded the body of the electric ray demon fish for the Bird King's Divine Feathers, the Taiyin Mirror, and eighteen Moon Spirit Pearls.

Then, he helped the three people present to forge three protective lightning armor garments according to their respective sizes.

As for how to classify the electric ray demon fish, that's a matter between the Howling Moon Fox and the Three-Tailed Tabby Cat.

The transaction was completed, and everyone was overjoyed.

The atmosphere is high.

Howling Moon Fox immediately hosted a banquet in his honor.

After three rounds of drinking.

Taking advantage of his drunken state, Shen Xuan asked, "Fellow Daoists, do you have any near-third-tier or third-tier water-attribute demon cores or essence blood?"

"Warcraft is fine too."

In front of the two demon kings, he sought to trade demon king cores and essence blood.

For human cultivators, this would be a major taboo.

But the Demon King didn't care.

If they weren't evenly matched, the demon kings would have long since turned on each other and devoured one another.

"As for our demon race, Fellow Daoist Shen, don't even think about it. We definitely don't have it."

Even if we had them, we wouldn't trade them.

"The Demon Emperor has long ago issued a decree. The demon kings of the Wilderness are not allowed to kill each other without his permission."

As Xiaoyuehu sipped his spirit wine, he said slowly, "As for magical beasts, there's still a chance."

"Why doesn't Fellow Daoist Shen join us in exploring the Demon Realm?"

Shen Xuan smiled and shook his head.

"My skills are meager, unlike those of you fellow Daoists who possess such extraordinary abilities."

"forget it."

The three-tailed tabby cat, which was tearing apart the electric ray demon fish, raised its head and asked, "Fellow Daoist Shen, if we had a third-tier water-attribute demon, what would you use to trade?"

"what do you want?"

"Are there still any spirit fish like this?"

"This level is very difficult. Would a high-grade second-tier spirit fish do?"

"Okay! But the quantity must be large! The more the better!"

The three-tailed tabby cat said.

Shen Xuan smiled and said, "Okay. I will come again in ten years. When I do, I will bring more second-grade high-quality spirit fish."

Cats love to eat fish; it's their nature and instinct.

Even after cultivating to the level of a demon king, he still retains the genetic instinct to like eating fish.

After the banquet, Shen Xuan and the Bai family patriarch left.

Xiaoyuehu watched the two figures disappear into the distance, lost in thought.

After a while, she glanced indifferently at the three-tailed tabby cat that was still greedily eating.

A gust of wind swept away the remaining electric ray demon fish.
