Chapter 1009: 918 Taiyi Tungsten Crystal (gone today)

"Have you heard? Senior Shen of the Qianling Sect possesses a Xuantian Treasure! With this treasure, he broke through Many Treasures Venerable’s Spirit Domain."

"I heard about it a long time ago, never thought we would witness the birth of a new Heaven Venerable."

"I heard that Senior Shen actively entered Many Treasures Venerable’s Spirit Domain, and even when Senior Ning activated the Spirit Domain to attack Senior Shen, Senior Shen remained unharmed."

······

Every street corner is abuzz with this matter; many Mahayana Cultivators rue the fact that they were unable to witness the battle.

Disciples of the Qianling Sect heard other Cultivators discussing and held their heads high with chests puffed out; a Heaven Venerable has risen from the Qianling Sect, an unstoppable momentum.

Fire Qilin Tower, the largest inn within the marketplace, where the consumption is expensive.

Lin Qingshan strode into the Fire Qilin Tower, and Cultivators in the great hall stood up one after another and bowed: "We greet Senior Lin."

Lin Qingshan is Shen Long’s grand-disciple; his status rose with Shen Long’s ascension.

The expressions of the Cultivators present varied: envy, awe, nervousness.

"Let’s dispense with the formalities; I’m here for socializing. Continue with what you’re doing, no need to mind me."

Lin Qingshan spoke cheerfully and proceeded upstairs.

Not until Lin Qingshan went up to the second floor did the Cultivators in the great hall dare to sit down again.

"Senior Lin is really approachable, truly worthy of being the grand-disciple of Myriad Demons Venerable."

"How else could Senior Lin be the grand-disciple of Myriad Demons Venerable? His character is indeed incomparable to ordinary people."

"Exactly! His mentor is a Heaven Venerable, ascending to the Mahayana Realm for Senior Lin is only a matter of time."

The Cultivators discussed enthusiastically, their voices overlapping incessantly.

Lin Qingshan felt speechless; he never acted arrogantly! As his status rose, others beautified his actions and words.

He arrived at the door of a private room on the fifth floor and knocked on the door.

As the door opened, more than ten Unity Cultivators sat around a green round table.

Seeing Lin Qingshan, everyone stood up promptly with serious expressions.

They had known Lin Qingshan for some time and were aware that his master and grandmaster were Mahayana Cultivators, but they didn’t pay much attention to him, as they were supported by Mahayana Cultivators as well.

Now it was different, Lin Qingshan is the grand-disciple of Myriad Demons Venerable, and within dozens of surrounding domains, there are numerous Mahayana Cultivators, but only one Heaven Venerable—Shen Long. The domain of origin of Many Treasures Venerable and Tianxuan Realm are separated by hundreds of domains.

"Friend Lin, you have arrived."

A slender girl in a purple dress greeted him.

"Apologies for the delay. I am Lin Qingshan, pleased to meet all fellow Taoists here," said Lin Qingshan with an apologetic tone.

"Friend Lin, you are too polite. You aren’t late at all, and there are other Taoist friends still on their way. Please take a seat," invited the girl in the purple dress as Lin Qingshan and the Cultivators gradually sat down.

Their casual chat touched upon the subject of Shen Long’s sparring with Many Treasures Venerable.

"Friend Lin, are you also practicing the ’Myriad Demons True Scripture’?" the girl in purple asked curiously.

"No, the requirements for cultivating that technique are too stringent. Not everyone is suitable for it, and my grandmaster advised against it," Lin Qingshan replied.

"Since it’s advice from Senior Shen, it’s certainly best to follow those recommendations," echoed the Cultivators.

The Cultivators’ words were full of praise, and though Lin Qingshan knew they were just pleasantries, he couldn’t help but feel a bit elated after hearing so many compliments.

More than two hours later, the gathering concluded, and the Cultivators left one after another.

Just as Lin Qingshan stepped out of the Fire Qilin Tower, a polite male voice came from behind, "Friend Lin, please wait up."

Lin Qingshan paused and turned to see a tall and thin elder in a green robe approaching. The elder had a presence vast as the sea, evidently a Mahayana Cultivator.

"What brings you here, Senior?" asked Lin Qingshan cautiously.

"I heard you are the disciple of Myriad Demons Venerable. I am Chen Yisong, and I have something important to discuss with Shen Dao. I hope Friend Lin could offer an introduction," said the elder in green as he handed a green Storage Bracelet to Lin Qingshan.

"Senior Chen, I cannot. My grandmaster has forewarned, I’m afraid I can’t be of help," responded Lin Qingshan with a troubled expression, as recently, too many Mahayana Cultivators wanted to meet Shen Long, and he rarely received visitors.

"I have a piece of Artifacts Refining Material that is impervious to damage by Top Grade Sky-reaching Spiritual Treasure. I want to trade it with Shen Dao. Many Daoist friends have seen it, but none could identify its origins. If you relay this to him, perhaps Shen Dao would reward you handsomely," Chen Yisong proposed.

"Impervious to Top Grade Sky-reaching Spiritual Treasure? Even several Mahayana Cultivators couldn’t discern its origins?" Lin Qingshan was interested, as Shen Long had instructed him to be on the lookout for such items.

"I’ll try to report this, but it’s up to my grandmaster whether to meet you or not," said Lin Qingshan.

"No problem, I’ll trouble Friend Lin then."

Chen Yisong said enthusiastically, handing over the green Storage Bracelet to Lin Qingshan.

"Thank you for your generous offer, Senior, but as per my sect’s instructions, please follow me!"

Lin Qingshan tactfully declined and led Chen Yisong to the entrance of the Qianling Garden.

Chen Yisong waited at the entrance, while Lin Qingshan strode into Qianling Garden.

Before long, Lin Qingshan came out and said, "Senior Chen, my master invites you. Please, follow me."

Chen Yisong’s face lit up with joy, and he followed Lin Qingshan into Qianling Garden, arriving at a courtyard with green-tiled roofs, where he met Shen Long.

Shen Long and Chu Buyu were sitting beside a green stone table, smiling.

"I am Chen Yisong, it is a pleasure to meet Taoist Friend Shen and Fairy Chu."

Chen Yisong bowed with his hands clasped before him, his demeanor respectful.

"Taoist Friend Chen, there’s no need to be so formal, please have a seat and try the Jade Soul Tea I just obtained."

Shen Long invited Chen Yisong to sit down and poured him a cup of Spiritual Tea.

During this time, Shen Long and Chu Buyu had met a large number of Mahayana Cultivators and exchanged for a batch of Cultivation Resources.

The tea was black, and after Chen Yisong took a sip, he felt an indescribable sense of refreshment deep within his Sea of Souls.

"Excellent tea, but let’s discuss the important matter at hand! Taoist Friend Shen, I’ve heard that Fairy Chu is an Artifact Refiner, please have her look into the origin of this item."

Chen Yisong praised, taking out an exquisite green Jade Box and handing it to Shen Long.

Shen Long opened the lid of the box, inside was a fist-sized black crystal stone.

"My wife, take a look at this Refining Material," Shen Long handed the black crystal stone to Chu Buyu.

Chu Buyu examined it closely, shook her head, and said, "I do not recognize it. Does this item have any special characteristics?"

"It’s exceptionally hard. Even a complete set of top-grade Sky-Reaching Spiritual Treasures can hardly leave a scratch on it. If you don’t believe me, Fairy Chu, feel free to give it a try."

Chen Yisong said.

Chu Buyu gave a flick of her sleeve, and five red-glowing Flying Daggers shot out, merged into one, and struck the black crystal stone, making a metallic clanging sound, leaving no mark whatsoever.

A look of astonishment briefly flashed in Shen Long’s eyes, and he asked, "Taoist Friend Chen, your visit this time is for?"

"I heard Taoist Friend Shen has the Nine Orifices Tao Fruit Pill. I would like to exchange for one. How about it?"

Chen Yisong said.

"Taoist Friend Chen doesn’t think this item is a material for Refining the Xuantian Treasure, do you? Do you believe I would exchange a Nine Orifices Tao Fruit Pill for this?"

Shen Long’s face showed displeasure.

Neither of them knew the origin of the item, so how could they possibly exchange it for a Nine Orifices Tao Fruit Pill?

"This is something I obtained from the Many Treasures Venerable’s cultivation place, after great effort. It must be something valuable. How about this? I’ll also add thirty thirty-thousand-year-old Spiritual Medicines. How does that sound?"

Chen Yisong took out another green Storage Bracelet and handed it to Shen Long.

Shen Long swept his Divine Sense over it, his face showing contemplation. He felt a kick on his right foot.

Shen Long caught the subtle hint and said,, "Taoist Friend Chen, you have been to the Many Treasures Venerable’s cultivation place, so you must have a map. Give me the map too, and I will exchange it for a Nine Orifices Tao Fruit Pill."

"A map? No problem."

Chen Yisong readily agreed, taking out a geographical map and handing it to Shen Long.

Shen Long and Chu Buyu inquired in detail about the situation of the Many Treasures Venerable’s cultivation place, and Chen Yisong told them the truth. He and three comrades had entered the place to search for treasures, but only he left alive.

"Taoist Friend Chen, this Nine Orifices Tao Fruit Pill is yours now. However, regarding the content of our conversation, I hope that other Mahayana Cultivators do not find out," Shen Long said, taking out a green Jade Box with a meaningful expression.

"Rest assured, Taoist Friend Shen, my lips are sealed,"

Chen Yisong readily agreed, knowing well that he’d be foolish to spread the word.

If other Mahayana Cultivators found out he had exchanged a Nine Orifices Tao Fruit Pill with Shen Long, surely some would target him. He didn’t plan to leave the marketplace anymore and intended to comprehend the Spirit Domain right there.

After chatting casually for half an hour, Chen Yisong took his leave, and Lin Qingshan personally saw him out.

Shen Long and Chu Buyu entered the Golden Roc Pavilion and went into a Practice Room.

Chu Buyu took out a golden Jade Slip, swept her Divine Sense over it, and said excitedly, "It’s correct, it is the Taiyi Tungsten Crystal. I didn’t expect to collect such a rare material. This is what the Immortal of the Lin Family instructed their descendants in The Lower Realm to collect!"

She didn’t recognize it at first, but upon realization, she had kicked Shen Long’s right foot.

"Taiyi Tungsten Crystal? Specifically, what type of Immortal Artifact is it for Refining?"

Shen Long asked, puzzled.

"I don’t know; the Jade Slip did not mention it. Back in the day, the Immortal of the Lin Family asked the Lin Family members to collect certain materials. Taiyi Tungsten Crystal was at the top of the list, but the specific purpose was not mentioned. Perhaps we will find out in the Immortal Realm,"

Chu Buyu speculated.

"If he found the Taiyi Tungsten Crystal in the Many Treasures Venerable’s cultivation place, perhaps there’s a second piece there."

Shen Long analyzed.

Chu Buyu nodded and said, "There’s a possibility. Hopefully, we can collect more materials that the Immortal of the Lin Family wanted their people to collect. Material that piques an Immortal’s interest must be extraordinary."
