"Ah, this exploration of the Nine Nether Elder’s relic was far more dangerous than before. Fellow Daoist Duan and I almost lost our lives there and would never return."
Gong Yang gently put down the teacup in his hand, his face full of emotion, and with a trace of lingering fear in his words.
Recalling the various thrilling encounters in the relic, he still felt a lingering terror.
Beside him, Duan Shuang agreed deeply and nodded heavily, echoing, "After returning this ti, I and Fellow Daoist Gong don’t plan to explore the Nine Nether Elder’s relic anymore."
"It’s indeed admirable that you two can restrain your greed and know when to stop." Xu Ping said with a smile, his eyes expressing approval.
In his view, knowing when to quit was undoubtedly a wise choice for these two.
After all, their cultivation levels were limited, and if they continued exploring deeply, it was only a matter of ti before they t with disaster.
"It’s a helpless move."
Duan Shuang sighed with a bitter smile, "To be honest, the barren island where the relic is located might soon explode into a Nascent Soul battle."
"Nascent Soul battle?"
Xu Ping was startled by these words, his face showing surprise as he quickly asked, "Fellow Daoist Duan, where did you hear this news?"
Although the relic of the Nine Nether Elder had certainly attracted Nascent Soul cultivators, when or even if they would make a move was filled with uncertainty.
After all, for Nascent Soul cultivators, their safety and cultivation level were always paramount.
Take Jiang Jingxing, the Sect Leader of Luoyun Sect, for example. He had just broken through to beco a Nascent Soul cultivator; even if there were an Infant Devouring Pill in the relic, he wouldn’t risk everything to seize it.
Of course, if his life span was nearing its end, that would be a different story.
"Now the entire Wanzhe Waters are buzzing with rumors."
Duan Shuang patiently explained, "It’s said that the Heaven-Reaching Spiritual Treasure of the Nine Nether Elder—the Yin Yang Qi Cauldron—is currently hidden in the relic."
"Heaven-Reaching Spiritual Treasure?"
"Yin Yang Qi Cauldron?"
Upon hearing these words, Xu Ping’s pupils instantly contracted, and a storm raged within his heart.
In the Cultivation Realm, Foundation Establishnt cultivators generally use Magical Artifacts; Fake Pill and Golden Core cultivators often use Artifact Embryos or Artifacts.
Only those who reach the Nascent Soul Realm qualify to use Spirit Treasures.
Although Heaven-Reaching Spiritual Treasures belong to the Spirit Treasure category, their power far surpasses ordinary Spirit Treasures, making them exceptionally rare treasures.
Even ordinary Nascent Soul cultivators would be srized by such a treasure.
"No wonder Fellow Daoist Duan ntioned an upcoming Nascent Soul battle."
"If there truly is a Heaven-Reaching Spiritual Treasure hidden in the Nine Nether Elder’s relic, those Nascent Soul cultivators will surely fight to the death." Xu Ping thought to himself.
But on second thought, this matter seed to have little to do with him.
After all, he was rely a Foundation Establishnt cultivator; only a fool would ddle in such affairs.
To fish in such troubled waters, one needs at least Golden Core-level cultivation.
Though Xu Ping’s mind teed with thoughts, his expression remained calm, not a hint of anomaly showing. He spoke with a carefully asured hint of astonishnt, saying:
"In the current scenario, it’s undoubtedly the correct decision for you two Fellow Daoists to refrain from taking risks."
"Indeed!"
Gong Yang sighed deeply, "Given the situation, unless they’re reckless Foundation Establishnt cultivators, who dares to continue exploring the relic?"
After the trio chatted casually for a while, Duan Shuang suddenly placed a delicate jade box on the stone table.
"Fellow Daoist Xu, take a look at this."
Duan Shuang’s beautiful eyes shimred brightly as she smiled, then waved her jade hand, and the jade box opened automatically, revealing a spirit peach inside.
"Hundred-Year Fruit!"
Xu Ping’s eyes moved, and he imdiately expressed his gratitude with a smile, "You Fellow Daoists are so considerate."
Although he had previously consud precious thousand-year Spiritual Liquid, greatly reducing his anticipation for the Hundred-Year Fruit.
But still, even a mosquito leg is at; it can at least enhance life span and Longevity Skill proficiency.
"Fellow Daoist Xu is too polite. We’ve known each other for decades, and our friendship is deep; this small token is nothing." Gong Yang chuckled heartily and waved his hand.
"That’s true."
Xu Ping nodded with a smile, then seed to rember sothing and said, "By the way, there’s one thing I forgot to tell you Fellow Daoists."
"I’ve bought the Spirit Vein at Purple Bamboo Mountain from Luoyun Sect."
"Bought Purple Bamboo Mountain from Luoyun Sect?"
Duan Shuang and Gong Yang froze upon hearing this, instinctively exchanged glances, their eyes full of shock.
Upon hearing that Xu Ping acquired Purple Bamboo Mountain for just twenty-five thousand Spirit Stones, their faces showed envy.
Knowing that this was a large Second-stage Upper Grade Spirit Vein.
Selling for just twenty-five thousand Spirit Stones was nearly akin to a gift.
However, they understood that this must be due to Xu Ping’s identity as a third-stage Talisman Master.
For other ordinary Foundation Establishnt cultivators, even dreaming of such a prospect was unthinkable.
"Congratulations to Fellow Daoist Xu, now you’ve beco our landlord. We must not anger Fellow Daoist Xu; otherwise, if you evict , I’ll be holess." Duan Shuang smiled softly, jesting sweetly.
"Indeed!"
Gong Yang chid in, "I wonder if Fellow Daoist Xu plans to charge us rent in the future?"
