After seeing off the city lord of the Azure Afterglow City, Immortal Exalt Yi Miao, Immortal Exalt Tan Yu sat down on his throne in thought. His expression changed a few tis.
After a while, he let out a long sigh. He murmured to himself, “I never thought that I’d have a falling out with the Immortal Exalt of Scarlet Fire over these spots. The Immortal Exalt of Scarlet Fire will probably bear a grudge against from now onwards.”
“I may have resolved all those years of enmity with the Void-perceiving sect for good, but now, my relationship with the Yi Immortal City has instead suffered. Life truly is unpredictable.”
“The Immortal Exalt of Scarlet Fire is not worthy of any concern. He grasps the Laws of Fire, which are still weaker than the Laws of the Sword at the end of the day. However, his seventh son who has already joined the Courtyard of Ways will be quite a problem.”
As soon as he thought of the Courtyard of Ways, Immortal Exalt Tan Yu struggled to find any solace.
“City lord, I have sothing to report!” At this mont, vice city lord Qiu Wanqian’s voice rang out from outside.
“Co in.” Immortal Exalt Tan Yu set aside his thoughts and looked at the entrance.
In the next mont, Qiu Wanqian entered the hall. He clasped his fist at Immortal Exalt Tan Yu and said, “City lord, we’ve already discovered experts from the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodint near our Immortal Rising City. In particular, in the barren mountains ten million kilotres away from our city. According to our scouts, there are many disciples of the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodint active there.”
Immortal Exalt Tan Yu was not surprised. “The Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodint lost two high quality god artifacts at the sa ti, so of course, they would take action. However, they’re even more cautious than I imagined they would be. To think that they didn’t actually co and find imdiately. Looks like they’ve also developed qualms over the Void-perceiving Ancestor and the Wukun Master’s sudden disappearance.”
After a mont of silence, Immortal Exalt Tan Yu waved his hand at Qiu Wanqian and said, “You can go. Keep an eye on the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodint’s movents. Inform fellow Yang Yutian about this as well.”
“Watch your tracks. Don’t create trouble for fellow Yang Yutian prematurely.”
“Yes, city lord!” Qiu Wanqian answered and left the hall.
Afterwards, Qiu Wanqian left the city lord’s estate and erased his presence. After intentionally disguising himself, he silently arrived at Jian Chen’s temporary abode without raising any attention. He told Jian Chen about the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodint.
“It has already been several days since the Void-perceiving Ancestor and the Wukun Master perished. The Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodint has only just begun mobilising people. They’re much slower than I thought they would be.” Jian Chen smiled after hearing that. He was not concerned.
In his knowledge, the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodint only possessed a few high quality god artifacts. Now that they had lost two all of a sudden, they obviously would not simply drop the matter.
“The person behind the Tiger Roar clan is one of the three ancestors of the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodint, the Transcension Ancestor, a Fifth Heavenly Layer Immortal Exalt. If the Transcension Ancestor is not eliminated, countless female cultivators in the Immortals’ World will suffer, so I must eliminate him.”
“It’s unavoidable for conflict to occur between and the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodint, except it’s still disadvantageous for to clash against them too early. In short, the longer I can drag this out, the more advantageous it will be to .” Jian Chen calculated. He could only co up with a single idea right now to deal with the Fifth Heavenly Layer Immortal Exalt, the Transcension Ancestor. He needed to annihilate him with the Divine Formation of the Heavens.
“The Sword Sect of Violet Heavens has more and more Nine-heavenly Xuan Immortals now, and the power of the Divine Formation of the Heavens is constantly increasing. Before long, the power of the Divine Formation of the Heavens will rise to the terrifying level of being able to kill Sixth Heavenly Layer Immortal Exalts. All that is missing right now is ti.”
“Master… master…” At this mont, Jing Mumu ran over joyfully. Her excited little face was glowing. She said hopefully, “Master, an appraisal fair is going to be held in the Immortal Rising City tonight. I heard all sorts of strange treasures will appear there. I want to go and take a look.”
Jian Chen looked at Jing Mumu and smiled gently. “Most of the items that appear in places like that are low level, unworthy of any attention. Are you sure you still want to go?”
“Master, I want to increase my knowledge, and it’s already been a very long ti since I’ve gone outside.” Jing Mumu was basically pleading with him.
Faced with Jing Mumu’s hopeful gaze, Jian Chen imdiately sighed and said rather helplessly, “Since you want to go, then go. Go with your grandfather. You have to listen to him when you’re outside.”
“Okay! Thank you, master. I knew you spoilt the most!” Jing Mumu cheered excitedly.
“Take this Space Ring with you. There are a few immortal crystals inside. You can buy whatever you end up liking.” Jian Chen casually passed a Space Ring over to Jing Mumu.
“Thank you, master!” Jing Mumu accepted the Space Ring happily. She subconsciously checked it with the senses of her soul before her jaw dropped. She was dumbstruck.
A mountainous pile of supre grade immortal crystals stood inside the Space Ring. The quantity reached the tens of millions.
Jing Mumu had never seen so many supre grade immortal crystals before. For a mont, she beca stunned.
......
…
Only Jian Chen remained in the large courtyard, but he did not idle around. Instead, he locked himself in a secret room to quietly comprehend the Laws of the Sword.
The appraisal fair in the Immortal Rising City would be held once every one thousand years. It seed no different from a regular market. The greatest difference was the items that appeared in the appraisal fair. It mostly consisted of bizarre objects and so special materials that could not be found in regular stores.
As for the bizarre objects, so of them seed to be extraordinary, but they did not actually have any use.
On the other hand, so items seed completely ordinary, but they could actually be extrely precious God Tier materials.
Items being sold for the wrong prices, whether for the better or for the worse, regularly occurred at appraisal fairs. Whether they could benefit from the trade was a test of an individual’s insight and luck.
The appraisal fair was bustling with people, raising a great hubbub. Jing Mumu moved through the crowd happily and stared at each stall with great interest. Her naive face oozed with smiles, filled with excitent and joy.
On this day, she basically spent money like it was worth nothing. Her Space Ring had already beco filled up with a great variety of items. They were all goods that seed more attractive than useful.
Jing Feng stuck close to her side, following behind Jing Mumu helplessly. He seed like he had already given up completely.
“Little girl, this Fire Phoenix pin is forged from the bones of an Immortal Emperor phoenix. It contains an extrely abundant power of the Laws of Fire. If you wear it, you’ll be able to comprehend the Laws of Fire with far greater ease…” When Jing Mumu arrived at one of the stalls and picked up a fiery-red pin to study, the old man manning the stall imdiately advertised it to her.
“How much for the pin?” Jing Mumu imdiately took a liking to the pin.
“It will be… a hundred thousand supre grade immortal crystals only.” The stall owner studied Jing Mumu before giving a price after hesitating.
“The material used for this pin only cos from a Nine-heavenly Xuan Immortal beast. How is it crafted from the bones of a phoenix?” Jing Feng walked over. He glanced at the red pin and sneered. “It’s just a regular item. It can only barely be considered as an ornant. How is it worth a hundred thousand supre grade immortal crystals?”
After a series of exchanges, Jing Mumu ultimately bought the pin for a thousand supre grade immortal crystals.
“Hmm?” Jing Mumu’s gaze was drawn over by another item offered by the stall—the pitch-black tip of a sword. It was only two fingers wide and as long as a hand.
She subconsciously picked up the broken tip. She did not recognise its material, but she noticed that it was cool to the touch and as light as a feather.
“This is Dull Star tal, a low grade God Tier material. It’s usually added to low quality god artifacts, so this broken sword should be a low quality god artifact.” Jing Feng imdiately recognised what the broken sword was made out of. He could not help but sigh gently. “Unfortunately, the sword has already shattered. It’s just a fragnt of a low quality god artifact. It’s mostly useless.”
“Impressive insight, fellow. You actually recognised it as Dull Star tal instantly. However, Dull Star tal is at the God Tier after all. If you could extract the Dull Star tal in the sword, it should be quite valuable,” said the stall owner.
“Sir, how much for the tip of the sword?” Jing Mumu suddenly looked at the stall owner. Her eyes flickered with interest.
“A hundred thousand supre grade immortal crystals for the tip of the sword.” As soon as the stall owner stated the price, he elaborated in a hurry, seemingly afraid of scaring Jing Mumu with the price. “Little girl, it’s not overpriced. If the low quality god artifact were undamaged, its value would be a hundred tis more. It’s exactly because it’s damaged that I’m selling it for this price.”
Jing Feng furrowed his brows. “Mumu, don’t tell you want to buy the tip of this sword? This item is useless to you.”
“Grandpa, I feel a connection to it,” Jing Mumu said to Jing Feng.
When he heard that, Jing Feng was left exasperated. He scolded her. “A connection? Tell , out of all the items you bought so far, were there any ones that you did not feel a connection to? Mumu, you can’t spend the immortal crystals that your master gave you like this.”
However, before Jing Feng could finish talking, Jing Mumu had already fished out a hundred thousand supre grade immortal crystals and paid the stall owner, buying the tip of the sword. She left Jing Feng absolutely fuming.
The stall owner accepted Jing Mumu’s hundred thousand supre grade immortal crystals happily and handed the tip of the sword over to her extrely enthusiastically. “Little girl, this is now yours. Please take it.”
He had excavated the tip of the sword when he was building a dwelling in the wilderness. He had already possessed it for several tens of thousand years now. It was truly unexpected that he could sell it for a hundred thousand supre grade immortal crystals
“Dull Star tal can only be considered as a cheaper low grade God Tier material, and the tip of the sword only contains a thin layer of Dull Star tal, making it extrely difficult to extract. Basically no one can achieve that. I’ve made a tidy sum selling it for a hundred thousand supre grade immortal crystals.” The stall owner secretly rejoiced.
Jing Mumu accepted the broken tip of the sword and studied it curiously in her hand. She beca more and more intrigued.
When she first saw the tip of the sword, she developed an indescribably strange feeling, which was the reason why she bought it.
Now that she held it in her hand, the feeling grew stronger and stronger.
The tip of the sword was extrely sharp. As Jing Mumu fiddled around with it, she accidentally cut herself and drew blood. One droplet happened to land on the tip of the sword. Surprisingly, it absorbed the blood imdiately.
Crack!
Suddenly, with a crisp sound, the tip of the sword beca covered in fine cracks. Before Jing Mumu could respond, surging sword intent was released from the tip of the broken sword in her hand.
