Chapter 887: 796 Mahayana Cultivator’s Intention

The Myriad Wood Plate listed many items, but since there was no Top Grade Sky-Reaching Spiritual Treasure, the most precious was a drop of Eighth Rank Flood Dragon’s Essence Blood, followed by Seventh Rank Spirit Flame.

Dragon Tiger Pill is a unique elixir of the Wang Family, and it has good body-strengthening effects. The main issue was that there were no Nine Essence Jade Pear Fruits left, otherwise Shen Long would have exchanged for one more.

In his early years, Shen Long had traded for one Nine Essence Jade Pear Fruit from Lin Luyao, and now he had obtained two more, totaling three Nine Essence Jade Pear Fruits.

After selecting the items, Shen Long returned the Myriad Wood Plate to Wang Tianyang.

Wang Tianyang pulled out a Golden Divination Disk, entering a spell, and made a series of gestures.

"Senior Wang, are we going to continue attacking the Bloodvine Clan next? We’ve been fighting so hard, taking down two large cities in a row. Shouldn’t we call in other Unity Cultivators to the front and allow us to return to the rear to recuperate?"

Chu Feng asked.

Most of the Unity Cultivators present were injured, and Chu Feng too wanted to withdraw for healing.

"I have already issued orders to call for a batch of cultivators from other forces. Of course, the merits you’ve earned are yours, but the forces you belong to must still send troops to participate in the war to earn their own merits, and there will be rewards."

The Five Thunder Divine Monarch promised.

Hearing this, Chu Feng and the others visibly relaxed.

They wanted to retreat to the rear for recuperation but were worried that the newly assigned cultivators would take their hard-won fruits of victory. With these words from the Five Thunder Divine Monarch, they were reassured.

"Cultivators who have sustained serious injuries may be sent to the rear for recovery, while those with minor injuries or no injuries stay at the front to fight. This is the main battlefield; the upcoming battles will be personally commanded by Ancestor Mingting."

Wang Tianyang added.

He too was going to retreat to the rear to recuperate. The Wang Family would call in more experts, and since Shen Long was powerful, naturally, he would not be called to the rear. His strength was still needed in the battles to come.

Shen Long, Wu Xuan, and others agreed, their expressions solemn.

With the Five Thunder Divine Monarch personally commanding the battles, a decisive battle was not far off, and it was bound to be even more intense.

"Alright, you all go back and rest! Gather your strength and conserve your energy. We won’t be engaging with the Bloodvine Clan again for a short while."

The Five Thunder Divine Monarch instructed.

"Yes, Senior Wang."

Shen Long and the others simultaneously agreed and gradually left. The Qianling Hall was left with only the Five Thunder Divine Monarch and Wang Tianyang.

"Tianyang, you should go back to Myriad Wood Mountain Range to heal. I’ve ordered Tian Hu to rush to Thousand Spirit City."

The Five Thunder Divine Monarch instructed.

"Yes, Ancestor."

Wang Tianyang agreed without hesitating and left.

The lightning around the Five Thunder Divine Monarch surged, turning into a streak of silver lightning, and vanished.

The next moment, he appeared in a quiet manor. The Myriad Flower Fairy sat within a Green Stone Pavilion.

"I’ve already sent people to make contact with the Fishman Clan, asking them to restrain the Profound Charm Clan. This way, we humans along with the Fire Fusion Clan, can focus on dealing with the Bloodvine Clan and the Crystal Clan."

The Five Thunder Divine Monarch said.

"What about the Heaven Cocoon Clan?"

The Myriad Flower Fairy asked, puzzled.

The Heaven Cocoon Clan, Crystal Clan, Bloodvine Clan, and Profound Charm Clan were allies against humans, the Fire Fusion Clan, and the Fishman Clan.

"Over ten thousand years ago, a Mahayana Cultivator from the Heaven Cocoon Clan traveled to Yaoguang Realm and was said to have been severely injured by a formidable enemy. It’s unknown if he has recovered or not, but haven’t you noticed how quiet the Heaven Cocoon Clan has been these recent years? Even if he has recovered, Taoist Friend Yan of the Fire Fusion Clan and I can join forces, and we’re not afraid of them."

The Five Thunder Divine Monarch spoke confidently, having killed a Mahayana Cultivator before.

"If the Bloodvine Clan and Crystal Clan knew that you were personally at the front, they’d be scared out of their wits. It’s just that I don’t know if their Mahayana Cultivators are currently on the Green Lotus Continent."

The Myriad Flower Fairy said, her face full of curiosity.

"If they are on the Green Lotus Continent, that’s good; if not, it’s even better."

The Five Thunder Divine Monarch said nonchalantly.

"I guess so. We’ll just have to wait and see! I also hope that a Mahayana of the Bloodvine Clan shows himself so we can cut him down."

The Myriad Flower Fairy said towards the end, a cold light flickering in her beautiful eyes.

The news of the Five Thunder Divine Monarch being at Thousand Spirit City quickly spread, boosting the morale of the human forces.

Bloodvine Mountain Range, Bloodvine Garden.

Teng Yan and a voluptuous woman in a golden dress were sitting in a green Stone Pavilion, leisurely sipping tea and chatting.

"Many years have passed since we last met, Taoist Friend Teng has ascended to the Middle Stage, congratulations!"

The woman in the golden dress congratulated him, her face full of envy.

Yun Xuan, at the early stage of Great Vehicle, the only Mahayana Cultivator of the Crystal Clan.

"Madam Yun, has Taoist Friend Luo not returned yet? He hasn’t shown himself in over sixty thousand years, has he?"

Teng Yan asked with a furrowed brow, full of confusion.

"At this point, there’s no need to keep it secret from you, Taoist Friend Teng. Taoist Friend Luo has long since died, perished in the Ten Thousand Spirits Cave Heaven."

Yun Xuan sighed.

The Crystal Clan had been keeping the news under wraps, hoping to cultivate a new Mahayana Cultivator before the word got out, but unfortunately, they did not succeed.

"What? He died in the Ten Thousand Spirits Cave Heaven? Who killed Taoist Friend Luo?"

Teng Yan pressed.

"I don’t know. He led a team into the Ten Thousand Spirits Cave Heaven to seek treasures, and his Life-Bound Lamp was extinguished. No one knows who killed him. I’ve been having people investigate these years to no avail."

Yun Xuan sighed, then, as if remembering something, she said: "Taoist Friend Teng, did you manage to get some Miracle Elixirs for breaking through to the Mahayana Realm on your travels?"

"I’ve got three Qihong Pills that can assist Unity Cultivators in their attempt to ascend to Mahayana. However, the Heart Demon Pass is difficult to overcome."

Teng Yan explained.

"Three Qihong Pills?"

Yun Xuan’s face showed envy, she was about to say something more when Fu Sheng walked in quickly, his expression grave.

"Ancestor, Senior Yun, there’s breaking news. The Five Thunder Divine Monarch has appeared in Thousand Spirit City, also known as Blood Thorn City. He wants to personally direct the upcoming battles."

Fu Sheng reported.

"Hmph, this is to force us to reveal ourselves. He might have gotten some powerful Treasure or might have cultivated an Eighth Rank Spiritual Beast."

Teng Yan said with a frown.

"Is he trying to test our strength, or does he intend to eliminate us? The Divine Skills of the Five Thunder Divine Monarch are not minor."

Yun Xuan’s face was full of concern.

"Not sure. Fu Sheng, pass this message to the Profound Charm Clan and the Heaven Cocoon Clan, and ask them for assistance."

Teng Yan instructed.

"Yes, Ancestor."

Fu Sheng readily agreed and left to carry out the order.

······

Thousand Spirit City, Qianling Garden.

Golden Roc Courtyard, Shen Long and Chu Buyu were sitting in a green Stone Pavilion, discussing something.

Shen Long selected two groups of Seventh Rank Spirit Flames, one for himself and one for Chu Buyu. They intended to have their own Spirit Flames devour the Seventh Rank ones, thereby enhancing the efficiency of their Alchemy and Artifact Refining.

"Husband, Madam Lin from the Four Seas Sect has also arrived in Thousand Spirit City and wishes to meet with you. She says she has important matters to discuss."

Chu Buyu informed him.

After the arrival of the Five Thunder Divine Monarch in Thousand Spirit City, a large number of High Rank Cultivators were called from the rear to bolster the city’s strength.

Shen Long’s acquisition of treasures from the treasure vault of Blood Thorn City was no secret, and many Unity Cultivators wanted to exchange resources with Shen Long.

"My lady, please inform the other fellow cultivators that we will hold a meeting in Qianling Garden three days from now and invite them to attend."

Shen Long proposed.

With his current strength and reputation, he had the qualifications to initiate a meeting, inviting other masters to join, instead of always attending gatherings organized by other Unity Cultivators.

This was a recognition of his strength. Not just any Unity Cultivator could initiate a meeting. Without sufficient influence and formidable strength, very few Unity Cultivators would accept the invitation.
