Xuanjian: Jade True Sword Immortal, my Dao Wisdom keeps increasing.

Southern Xinjiang.

Wu Xitian's Xuan Tao shattered, slowly falling into that dark and invisible place. A unique wind of the Netherworld rushed out, which actually slowed down the flow of spiritual energy in the Southern Border's void.

At this moment, Jiang Heqian, who had been thrown out of the cave, was floating in the real world.

He looked up, observing with great interest the strange sight of the cave falling into the underworld.

Once the eerie light had completely engulfed the cave, Jiang Heqian withdrew his gaze, thinking to himself:

"What exactly is this Netherworld? Based on the current information, the Underworld is collecting gold essence in Jiangnan on a large scale. Judge Yang once mentioned it. The Ten Courts of the Netherworld are about to be completed. Is this why they are collecting gold essence?"

The underworld is no good; it's even more cold-blooded than the northern sunset.

Youming, who was born into Douxuan, colluded with a group of heretics to dig up Douxuan's legacy everywhere.

In later generations, in Wanling Heaven, the [Lingyang Unchanging Palace], where Douxuan Master preached, was even taken away by the Netherworld, which was simply a rebellion against the Heavenly Gang.

These ghosts acted ruthlessly and didn't seem worried at all that the adults would come back.

Having considered this, Jiang Heqian turned and stepped into the void, heading towards the Sandy Yellow Kingdom.

He quickly recalled past events:

"In the Chuyi Heaven, there is a trace of innate true fire left behind by the Lord of Douxuan."

Once it appears in the world, it will burn through the netherworld, incinerating all the ghosts and spirits. Finally, the original deity will reappear, and the great man will come out to clean up the mess.

Judging from their posture, the Three Mysterious Masters all had a backup plan to use for eliminating their own sects.

The Lord of Qingxuan even took a bizarre turn, becoming the current Lu Jiangxian, and personally intervened.

Who knows what tricks that Tongxuan Master will leave behind? Perhaps it's a way to clean house.

If that Lord Xia Guang from the North disobeys his master's orders, will he be wiped out by the contingency plan left by the Master of Tongxuan?

Ideally, there should be rivers of blood.

Of the existing Golden Core cultivators and Dao Embryos, very few are innocent.

In their eyes, mortals in the Purple Palace are all ants, taking whatever they want from the world without any regard for its well-being.

Jiang Heqian traversed the void rapidly.

Lost in thought, they arrived in the southern borderland of the Yellow Sands.

He put aside his thoughts, used his Jade True Divine Power to step out of the void, and in the blink of an eye, landed in the main hall on the mountaintop.

A pale-faced Zhu Sheng ran out of the hall in surprise and said:

"Zhu Sheng greets True Man Yu Yan. I thought True Man Yu Yan would go straight back to the dense forest. Please come with me into the hall and have a cup of spiritual tea."

Jiang Heqian smiled and nodded, speaking naturally:

"Yu Yan has something he would like to ask Master Zhu Sheng, which is why he has come to bother you."

Upon hearing this, Zhu Sheng smiled broadly and led Jiang Heqian into the main hall, much more enthusiastically than before they entered the grotto.

He seemed to sense Jiang Heqian's thoughts and explained aloud:

"Fellow Daoist Xianchan just left. She was just telling me that True Person Yuyan saved her in [Wuxi Heaven], and marveled at how True Person Yuyan, a newcomer to the Purple Mansion, possessed extraordinary and mysterious supernatural swordsmanship."

This is clearly an exaggeration by Xianchan.

Jiang Heqian waved his hand and replied:

"Yu Yan is nothing more than a Jade True Divine Power, there's nothing mysterious about it, Master Xian Chan is too kind."

"Yu Yan has come to seek out Master Zhu Sheng to inquire whether Master Zhu Sheng possesses any pill formulas of the Yu Zhen Dao, or pills that can enhance our cultivation of supernatural powers. Yu Yan is willing to exchange them at a high price."

Master Zhu Sheng also practiced the Jade True Path.

Jiang Heqian then seized this opportunity to come and ask for help.

Upon hearing this, Zhu Sheng, dressed in a blue brocade robe, smiled broadly and looked Jiang Heqian up and down, saying:

"It seems that True Immortal Yuyan has reaped quite a harvest in the cave."

Jiang Heqian smiled but did not respond.

Master Zhu Sheng put away his smile and said solemnly:

"As Master Yuyan also knows, most of the ancient elixirs are now ineffective. Elixirs that can help cultivate the Purple Mansion Divine Power are already in short supply. Master Zhu has no elixirs here."

"However, Zhu Sheng's ancestors cultivated the Jade True Realm for generations and passed down several elixir formulas. Now, only one formula is still usable. If True Real Person Yu Yan wants to exchange for it, he should be prepared."

As he spoke, Zhu Sheng calmly picked up his teacup and took a sip.

Jiang Heqian said calmly:

"Oh? Please, Master Zhusheng, state your terms in exchange. If they are suitable, Yu Yan will accept them."

Master Zhu put down his teacup and said earnestly:

"Zhu Sheng has only one condition: for every batch of pills that Master Yu Yan refines, he must give Zhu Sheng one pill. How about it?"

Without even thinking, Jiang Heqian refused outright:

"This is absolutely impossible. Don't you think this request is excessive, Master Zhu Sheng?"

Master Zhu Sheng was not angry, and calmly said:

"Since Zhu Sheng cultivates the Jade True Path, he naturally has the desire to seek the Dao. I am not very interested in other treasures, I only want this Jade True Pill to use for cultivation."

"This matter is beneficial to both of us, Master Yuyan. There is no need to be angry. You may consider it again."

Jiang Heqian regained his composure and said in a calm voice:

"Is Master Zhu Sheng trying to get something for nothing, because he's certain Yu Yan can't obtain the pill formula from elsewhere?"

Zhu Sheng explained hastily:

"The [Jade Unity Pill] was passed down from my ancestor, and it is far superior to any other unorthodox remedy. The effects of this pill can not only enhance our cultivation of supernatural powers, but also help Jade True cultivators comprehend the profound truth."

"Master Yu Yan, please consider this."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Heqian calmly replied:

"Master Zhu Sheng's conditions were too harsh; he wanted to collect one piece from every furnace, which is simply impossible."

He held up two fingers and said:

"Two furnaces, at most one pill from two furnaces, this is my bottom line. If Master Zhusheng does not agree, Yu Yan will not force it."

Jiang Heqian tapped his fingers lightly on the teacup, waiting quietly, thinking to himself:

"This Zhu Sheng's ancestor was the True Lord Chilang. If the [Heyu Yixin Dan] in his possession really has the effects he claims, then agreeing to give him the pill wouldn't be a loss for me."

"The most urgent task is to cultivate supernatural powers. If we lose spiritual objects and resources, we can find other ways to earn them. But if we miss the opportunity to cultivate supernatural powers, that would be a huge loss."

For a moment, the hall fell silent, both of them looking thoughtful.

After an unknown amount of time, the Venerable Zhu Sheng on the high platform sighed softly and said:

"Then let's do as Master Yuyan says. Give me one pill from each of the two furnaces. In this transaction, Master Yuyan will not be at a disadvantage."

After speaking, Master Zhu Sheng looked somewhat forlorn, as if he were reminiscing.

He patted the storage bag at his waist, and a white jade slip emitting a red light floated in mid-air. Then he cast several spells to remove the restrictions on the jade slip, and pushed it to Jiang Heqian.

Master Zhu stared at Jiang Heqian and said earnestly:

"Master Yuyan, I hope you will keep your promise."

Jiang Heqian nodded solemnly, immersing his divine sense into the jade slip and firmly memorizing the [Heyu Yixin Pill].

With a flick of his hand, his divine power shone brightly, and the jade slip shattered instantly.

Having done all this, Jiang Heqian stood up to take his leave, saying:

"Master Zhu Sheng, we shall meet again someday. Yu Yan takes his leave."

After saying that, the milky white Jade True Divine Power flashed, and in the blink of an eye, he disappeared from the spot.

On the high platform, Master Zhu Sheng looked dejected and let out a long sigh.

As a descendant of the Chu imperial family, he possessed a proud spirit, but the harsh reality forced him to trade away his ancestral alchemical formula.
