Chapter 233: Chapter 218: Pang Jian’s Fencing Channels_1

At this thought,

"I’ll try to think of a way to gather more Spirit Jade to support you and Panshi Fragment Land."

Pang Jian’s gaze wandered over the bottles and jars, the various items, barrels of beast blood, and assorted Spiritual Materials scattered about.

He planned to sell off the assets before him!

These messy cultivation materials, coming from Cao Mang, Lou Yunming, Jiuyuan, and Liang Ying, were mostly unfamiliar to him, and their value was unknown.

However, the mere thought that they had been carried by a Spirit Condensation Realm Great Cultivator made him believe they must be extraordinary.

Next, he began to inspect all the materials before him, one by one.

He recognized the three bottles of Soul Nourishing Pill from Lou Yunming and did not hesitate to set them aside; the fifth and sixth-level ferocious beasts’ flesh and blood stored by Jiuyuan were also placed aside.

The "Blade of Blood Reversal" he twisted for a test, only to find that this weapon, commonly used by Jiuyuan, could only carry Spiritual Power and blood energy.

Star Power, Moon Energy, sunlight, and Extreme Cold Alien Power dissipated too much when flowing through the "Blade of Blood Reversal" and could not accommodate all, failing to bring out his own advantages.

This item, too, was placed aside to be sold.

The Black Crow Pot could be used to house Evil Spirits, and he planned to give it to Luo Hongyan later, so he put it in the not-for-sale area.

The Meteorite Bead, which could also gather the power of stars and moons, was also placed in the not-for-sale region.

As for the most precious Black Iron Mountain from Cao Mang, which was equivalent to a small Flying Spirit Artifact, it could take him away from the Fragment Land beneath his feet and even enter the Fourth Realm and the Second Realm above.

This item, too, was placed in the not-for-sale position.

He sifted through each item, keeping the artifacts, pills, and beast blood that he needed and could use, while the artifacts he didn’t recognize or need were all moved to the other side.

It took him two hours to divide the materials into two piles, among which the pile for sale also included several empty storage bracelets.

"The Heaven Clan’s Yu Xin, or should I..."

Thinking of that Wood Tribe leader and knowing that Jiuyuan, Lou Yunming, and others had died because of him, to avoid exposing his identity, he did not communicate with Yu Xin from the Fifth Realm.

He directly took out the Ghost Altar and began to set it up.

After the Ghost Altar was successfully built, three pieces of paper became clearly visible from the groove in front of him.

Pang Jian, who hadn’t fiddled with the Ghost Altar for a long time, was startled by the three pieces of paper but then quickly realized they were messages from Dong Tianze.

With a wave of his hand, the three pieces of paper fell into his palm, and then he looked down at them.

The message on the first piece of paper:

"Pang Jian, my disciple Elder Lou Yunming is currently in Yuan Mang Fragmented Lands. He has found that woman named Luo Hongyan. Damn, it turns out Luo Hongyan and a fan were actually supposed to be sent to me by Yin Spirit Temple!"

The message on the second piece of paper:

"Pang Jian, Yuan Mang Fragmented Lands are suffering from a massive invasion by Alien Tribes, and Elder Lou urgently messaged our Sect’s Sect Master. Since Luo Hongyan is in Fragmented Lands, you must be there too, this time you’re probably going to die in Yuan Mang!"

The message on the third piece of paper:

"Pang Jian, are you dead yet?"

The three pieces of paper must have been thrown into the Ghost Altar by Dong Tianze at different times.

As soon as he activated the Ghost Altar, these three pieces of paper would immediately appear.

Dong Tianze seemed very concerned about his safety, and he sent three messages in a row, seeing that Pang Jian had not responded for a long time.

Looking at the messages on the three pieces of paper, Pang Jian had a complex expression and couldn’t help but fall into deep thought.

Dong Tianze, who had joined the Yin Spirit Temple, was on the Xuan You Continent, but aside from Yin Spirit Temple, there were also Star River Alliance and Blood Moon on Xuan You Continent.

Lou Yunming, while in Yuan Mang, was still able to secretly communicate with the Sect Master of Yin Spirit Temple.

Lou Yunming stopped sending messages back because... he had already been killed by Pang Jian.

Also on Xuan You Continent, Blood Moon and Star River Alliance might also have methods to communicate with the two Elders, Jiuyuan and Liang Ying.

But these two Elders were also killed by him in Yuan Mang.

It has only been one day since the battle of Yuan Mang Fragmented Lands ended, and without news from Lou Yunming, Jiuyuan, and Liang Ying, the three major Sect forces on the Xuan You Continent may not yet know the situation in Yuan Mang.

Thinking so, Pang Jian silently manipulated Lou Yunming’s belongings behind himself.

Suddenly, he wrote a piece of paper, infused Spiritual Power within the Ghost Altar, and sent it to the other side.

On Universe Profound Continent, within Yin Spirit Temple,

Dong Tianze, who had been in seclusion and was now cultivating to the late phase of the Innate Realm - only a short distance away from reaching the Hollow Profound Realm - suddenly opened his eyes in his dimly lit cavern.

The Ghost Altar, which had been quiet for some time, flickered slightly and a piece of paper flew out.

Dong Tianze frowned, saying coldly, "Is that another plea for help from the Dark Ghost Hall Master of the Fourth Realm?"

He seemed somewhat impatient.

Recently,

As the Filth Alien Power continued to spread and groups of Mutated Beasts attacked, the people of Dark Ghost and the seven great families all gathered toward the lands governed by the Zhou Family and Dong Family.

There, the remaining pure lands for the Human Race of the Fourth Realm were dwindling.

The few Hall Masters of Dark Ghost, seeing the continuous spread of Filth Alien Power and the core members of the seven families being taken away by Flying Spirit Artifacts, often sought help from Dong Tianze, who was the Ghost Leader.

In the past days, Dong Tianze received almost all pleas for help from those Hall Masters, most of which he disregarded.

Gradually, those Hall Masters lost hope, and recently, they stopped sending messages.

"There are troubles not only for you all. Yuan Mang Fragmented Lands have suffered a massive invasion by Alien Tribes, thousands of Cultivators have died or been injured. There’s not so much time to care about you all."

Muttering to himself, Dong Tianze took a casual glance at the paper and saw a familiar handwriting appear: "Ghost Leader, I am Pang Jian."

He was suddenly re-energized, squinting slightly, first murmuring, "He’s not dead yet?"

Afterward, he began to read attentively.

"What? He has many rare Spiritual Artifacts and materials, all incredibly valuable? He’s in Yuan Mang Fragmented Lands, could it be that he has struck it rich with the fortune of the dead again? Seeking an expedited trade and demanding only Spirit Jade in return?"

Dong Tianze stood up in shock.

Elder Lou Yunming of the Yin Spirit Temple had not communicated with the sect leader for several days, and they were currently unaware of the situation at the Yuan Mang Fragmented Lands.

Not just them—the Blood Moon and the Star River Alliance were also unclear about the state of affairs in Yuan Mang.

Seeing some activity from Pang Jian’s side, Dong Tianze became instantly excited.

He pondered for a moment and took out a piece of paper, upon which he wrote two words—"three days."

After giving it some thought, knowing the gravity of the matter, he tore up the paper and rewrote a line—"Three hours from now!"

He threw the paper towards the Ghost Altar and immediately stepped out of his cave abode, only to find that Liu Yan, who was pretending to guard him, was nowhere to be found.

He immediately sought out his master Han Zhiyuan and told him that Pang Jian was in the Yuan Mang Fragmented Lands, and that he had sought a trade with the Ghost Altar.

"Pang Jian!"

Han Zhiyuan was equally shocked and, after a slight hesitation, led Dong Tianze straight to meet the sect leader of the Yin Spirit Temple.

Thus, three hours later, in Dong Tianze’s cave abode, which housed a massive Ghost Altar,

Yin Yiqing, the chief sect leader of the Yin Spirit Temple, Han Zhiyuan, one of the deputy sect leaders, and Dong Tianze, who was regarded by the Yin Spirit Temple as a prodigy on par with figures like Yang Rui, appeared together.

"Sect Leader, it would be inappropriate for you and me to be seen by that young man."

The gaunt Han Zhiyuan whispered to the ethereal Yin Yiqing beside him, "You and I should stay a little further away from the Ghost Altar and merely observe. Our doubts regarding the Yuan Mang Fragmented Lands can be communicated to Dong Tianze via Divine Sense through the Ghost Commanded Token, making it difficult for Pang Jian at the other end to perceive."

Yin Yiqing, who wore loose robes and had an effeminate aura, with a pair of narrow phoenix eyes, nodded slightly in agreement.

They quickly dispersed to a corner of the cave abode, hiding in the shadows like two ghosts, watching as Dong Tianze, after receiving their instructions, flew into the Ghost Altar.

A moment later.

"Swoosh!"

Pang Jian’s tall figure suddenly emerged from the jungle at the other end of the Ghost Altar, presenting himself before the three people of the Yin Spirit Temple.

"Ghost Leader."

Pang Jian, dressed in black, looked calmly at Dong Tianze and called out softly.

Dong Tianze said coldly, "You’re still alive."

"Indeed, fortunate."

Pang Jian replied indifferently, not waiting for a perplexed Dong Tianze to speak, he said, "Let’s talk business."

The "Blade of Blood Reversal" from the Blood Moon Jiuyuan was immediately taken out by him, and upon infusing it with Spiritual Power and Blood Energy, the Long Blade radiated dazzling blood light.

"Give me an estimate for this Long Blade."

Without Luo Hongyan or figures like Qi Qingsong by his side, and unsure of the true value of the "Blade of Blood Reversal," he let Dong Tianze set a tentative price.

Dong Tianze, also from the Fourth Realm and not quite familiar with the value of Spiritual Artifacts, was momentarily stunned by the Long Blade.

But at that moment.

"The Blade of Blood Reversal!"

"The Blood Reversal Blade of Jiuyuan!"

The astonished voices of Sect Leader Yin Yiqing and Master Han Zhiyuan simultaneously erupted from the "Ghost Commanded Token" in his bosom, startling Dong Tianze.

In the shadows of the cave abode, the eyes of the two sect leaders looking this way also became extremely strange.

Uncertain, Dong Tianze naturally did not know that the Yin Spirit Temple, which had always been at odds with the Blood Moon, was all too familiar with several of the Blood Moon’s elders.

He was unaware, but the two sect leaders of the Yin Spirit Temple knew everything related to the "Blade of Blood Reversal."

Because dozens of disciples from the Yin Spirit Temple had died by this very "Blade of Blood Reversal," they naturally understood the blade’s effects and actual value.

The next moment, the astonishment in the two sect leaders’ hearts grew even stronger!

Why was the "Blade of Blood Reversal" in Pang Jian’s hands?

Could it be that Jiuyuan had perished in the Yuan Mang Fragmented Lands?

If he wasn’t dead, how could Pang Jian have obtained the "Blade of Blood Reversal"?

A series of doubts instantly surfaced in the minds of the two sect leaders, and then came a soft transmission from Yin Yiqing, "Tianze, ask him how he got this Long Blade."

"Pang Jian, how did you come by this Long Blade?"

Dong Tianze asked.

"Jiuyuan is dead, the blade was left behind, and I happened to come across it,"

Pang Jian answered.

"How did Jiuyuan die?"

Dong Tianze asked again.

Pang Jian was silent for a moment, then said indifferently, "He died in battle with a level-six Ferocious Beast. I was nearby by chance and found this Long Blade. Enough talk, quickly give me an estimate."

Dong Tianze did not respond, communicating secretly with the two sect leaders through the "Ghost Commanded Token."

After a short while, Dong Tianze said, "Fifteen thousand Spirit Jade!"

"Fifteen thousand..."

Pang Jian was internally shaken.

The value of a "Blade of Blood Reversal" was actually one and a half million Spirit Stones, worth as much as the total of all the Spiritual Materials he had previously sold from the bodies of beasts.

"Deal!"

He promptly placed the Long Blade in the groove in front of him.

"Splash!"

At the other end, Dong Tianze started stacking up the Spirit Jade given to him in advance by the two sect leaders, piece by piece, in front of his side of the Ghost Altar.

The first transaction was quickly completed.
