Cultivating Immortals in Two Realms, I Possessed the Primordial Thunder Vine

Chapter 8 The Scheme of Fenghuang Sect

As the lord of Lingbi Mountain, his annual income was only a mere one hundred low-grade spirit stones. Even with expenses added, he only had sixty spirit stones in savings, making the price quite expensive.

However, the thought that obtaining the Blood Refining Secret Method of the Spirit Wood Sword would allow him to use the Blood Refining Method to refine the leaves and stems of the Nine Heavens Thunder God Vine, thereby immediately perfecting his Flowing Light Sword, was almost a visible improvement.

He gritted his teeth and started negotiating the final price with the other party.

After some back and forth, a deal was reached.

Thirty-five low-grade spirit stones!

Xu Changjun reluctantly paid the money, established a spiritual contract with Zhao Yuxuan, and swore never to reveal the secret to outsiders, thus breaking the seal on the Blood Refining Secret Technique.

He put the booklet away, then took out his cloth bag, counted the spirit stones, and handed it over.

"Thank you for your hospitality, Brother Zhao. If you ever visit Yunlu Mountain, you must come and have a few drinks with us!"

Xu Changyun stuffed the cloth bag into Zhao Yuxuan's hand, still feeling a little reluctant, so he clasped his hands in a fist and bowed, saying...

"I have urgent business to attend to, so I won't bother you any longer. I'll definitely treat Brother Zhao to drinks next time."

Then, he turned and left Jinbaozhai.

Watching Xu Changjun's figure gradually disappear into the crowd, Zhao Yuxuan's smile faded, his expression became indifferent and cold, completely lacking his previous enthusiasm.

Only after Xu Changjun disappeared into the crowd did Zhao Yuxuan turn around and return to the interior of Jinbaozhai.

Immediately, Zhao Yuxuan turned around and went back to the back house. Right in front of the table in the living room, a tall, thin middle-aged man was sitting there. He looked up and saw Zhao Yuxuan walking in, and asked calmly.

"That member of the Xu family has left?"

This somewhat thin middle-aged man was not an outsider, but Zhou Jinyu, the deputy sect leader of Fenghuang Sect. He held a very high position in the sect, second only to the sect leader and the three elders, and his cultivation level had reached the mid-Foundation Establishment stage.

"Uncle-Master, I still don't understand. The other party only wants the Blood Refining Technique, but we sell seven different kinds, enough for him to choose from. Why would we give him our sect's closely guarded Bloodline Spirit Communication Technique...?"

"To obtain the Bloodline Spirit Communication Technique for a mere thirty-five low-grade spirit stones, isn't that just a bargain for that junior member of the Xu family?"

Zhao Yuxuan asked with some confusion.

It's not surprising that he overthinks things. Take the three major forces in Yundong Lake as an example, the strongest of them is undoubtedly the Xu family.

Within a radius of eight hundred miles around Yundong Lake, there is only one person with a Purple Mansion, the Xu family patriarch.

Without a doubt, this person is the strongest within a radius of eight hundred miles.

However, compared to the Purple Mansion Realm, there are also some powerful Foundation Establishment stage cultivators around, especially from the Fenghuang Sect and the Yuequan Clan, yet none of them dare to attempt to reach the Purple Mansion Realm, which implicitly reveals something about the situation.

In fact, it was precisely because of the Xu family's suppression that the other two major forces, Fenghuang Sect and Yuequan Clan, have not had a single person successfully break through to the Purple Mansion Realm for two hundred years.

Over the years, there have been cultivators who have forcibly prepared to break through to the Purple Mansion Realm, but none of them have succeeded. One reason is that the Purple Mansion Realm itself has a low probability of breakthrough, and it is a matter of risking one's life.

Furthermore, once someone tries to break through, a master will launch a surprise attack, creating all sorts of trouble for you, sometimes even directly injuring the opponent, making it difficult for them to succeed.

The three major powers have been at odds with each other, engaging in open and covert struggles for quite some time, yet they still maintain a facade of peace.

Outsiders only see the beautiful scenery around Yundong Lake, but they are unaware of the treacherous and treacherous nature of it, which is far more surprising than outsiders can imagine.

"Uncle-Master, I understand what you're saying. Precisely because of our hatred for the Xu family, we shouldn't be handing over the superior-grade bloodline spirit communication technique to that Xu family brat. Wouldn't that be aiding the enemy?!"

Zhao Yuxuan was still full of doubts, and even his tone contained a hint of suspicion.

Clearly, Vice Sect Master Zhou Jinyu's words did not dispel his doubts.

"You don't know this, but I recently mastered the Profound Heaven Sensing Chapter, which opened my sixth sense. This gives me an extremely accurate grasp of certain energies, which is why I was able to glimpse something unusual."

"This child is definitely a true seed of the Dao secretly cultivated by the Xu family. He looks young and his external cultivation level is floating, but he gives me the feeling of sensing a cultivator at the peak of Qi Refining. There is a faint aura hidden on his body, which even makes me feel dangerous."

"Logically speaking, such a genius is a once-in-a-century talent, even in the Xu family. He should have been famous throughout Yundong Lake by now. But he is silent now, which can only prove the saying that the tallest tree in the forest will be felled by the wind."

Zhou Jinyu smiled coldly and said.

"The Xu family is skilled in scheming, but unfortunately, the net of heaven is vast, and though its meshes are wide, nothing escapes it; they still slipped up. With this young man's talent, he will surely become a great enemy of our Fenghuang Sect in the future! That old scoundrel Xu Weichao has already suppressed our Fenghuang Sect for two hundred years; we absolutely cannot allow a second Venerable Hantian, Xu Weichao, to appear..."

"If we hadn't known, it wouldn't have mattered. But now that we know this child will become a formidable enemy, we must be ruthless and eradicate him completely, otherwise we'll only leave him with future troubles, and it will be too late to regret it!"

Deputy Sect Master Zhou Jinyu sighed inwardly, wondering why the Xu family had such outstanding descendants in every generation, which made him both jealous and resentful.

The continuity of bloodlines, passed down from generation to generation, is the key to lasting prosperity.

"Hmm? This person has been hiding his true intentions so well?! The Xu family's ambitions are truly chilling..."

"Uncle-Master, have you tampered with the bloodline spirit communication technique?!"

Zhao Yuxuan's eyes lit up, and he began to understand what the deputy sect leader Zhou Jinyu was thinking.

"That's right, there's nothing wrong with the Bloodline Spirit Communication Technique he took, but I've mixed in some personal information at the end. I'll give him a little something to whet his appetite and see if this young Xu family member falls for it!"

"Once he sees it, he will inevitably be unable to resist cultivating it. That secret technique is extremely evil. I have had it for twenty years and dare not try it lightly. But the path of geniuses is always different. When he tries to cultivate it, his bloodline will inevitably be polluted in the end. He will unknowingly fall into a deadly situation, and it may even cause some trouble for the Xu family..."

"Vice Sect Leader Zhou Jinyu said slowly."

Even Zhao Yuxuan couldn't help but shudder when he heard this scheme. He was glad that he hadn't offended the deputy sect leader, otherwise he might have been tricked and died without even knowing how.

But the thought that the Xu family's outstanding genius had fallen so tragically, even to the point of dying a gruesome death, filled him with a strange sense of satisfaction.

The path to immortality is truly as difficult as ascending to heaven; the struggle for the Great Dao is like ten thousand people crossing a single-plank bridge.

This kind of family is full of geniuses with every talent in their class, making people grit their teeth in hatred.

"Alright, that's enough for today's discussion. If anyone asks you about this, just say you don't know."

Deputy Sect Leader Zhou Jinyu instructed Zhao Yuxuan not to spread the word and to simply wait for the show to begin.

Otherwise, if word gets out, the Xu family will inevitably face retaliation once they find out that Fenghuang Sect deliberately plotted against them.

Fenghuangmen is unwilling to bear the losses incurred.
