Chapter 152 The ownership of the Golden Core is decided! Xiao Yan departs!
The Grand Elder of the Xuan Dan Sect spoke first, saying, "Sect Master, the Thousand Swords Sect wishes to exchange a top-grade third-tier Golden Glow Fruit for two high-grade third-tier Soul Pattern Grasses to help you form a Golden Core."
The Golden Glow Fruit, which is golden in color, can enhance the sharpness of metal-type spiritual power when consumed, giving magical attacks a certain armor-piercing effect. It is something that sword cultivators with metal spiritual roots greatly desire.
Soul-patterned grass is the main ingredient for refining calming pills and soul-soothing pills.
Both are precious.
However, no sooner had the First Elder finished speaking than the Third Elder chuckled softly:
"Haha, Elder, the Golden Glow Fruit is indeed quite good."
However, we are all alchemists or spiritual plant practitioners, so what use would we have for this Golden Glow Fruit?
Sect Master, the Wang family of Burning Sky Island intends to exchange it for a top-grade third-tier Fire Marrow Spirit Bamboo and ten high-grade third-tier Blazing Fire Crystals.
Each crystal is the size of a fist.
Upon hearing this, everyone present was immediately impressed.
The Burning Sky Island where the Wang family lives is rich in fire-attribute natural treasures, which is very similar to the Xuan Dan Sect, which uses fire-based alchemy techniques.
Therefore, it is also the force that has obtained the most Golden Cores from the Xuan Dan Sect.
This is also the main reason why the Wang family is so powerful.
Wang Teng nodded and said, "That's right. If there's nothing good to be found later, the Wang family of Burning Sky Island will be selected."
"Clan leader, the Ghost Blade Sect has brought out..."
"The Yunshan Sword Sect will take..."
……
Time passed slowly, and the elders and peak masters successively named more than twenty Golden Core forces and selected three major Golden Core forces.
These are the Wang family, the Azure Sea Immortal Sect, and the Ice Cold Palace, a Golden Core power located far from the Profound Pill Sect.
Wang Teng turned his gaze to Ren Danxiong, who had remained silent, and smiled, "Elder Ren, you haven't spoken. Is it because no one has the power to contact you?"
Ren Danxiong stepped forward, bowed, and replied with a smile:
"Reporting to the sect leader, of course not. Although I cannot compare with the connections of other elders, I still have ties with two forces."
I won't even mention the Puppet Sect; their treasures, while decent, were still inferior to those of the Azure Sea Immortal Sect.
"Oh? Elder Ren means that there is a force that has brought out a treasure that you think surpasses the Azure Sea Immortal Sect?" The fourth elder, who was in contact with the Azure Sea Immortal Sect, looked at Ren Danxiong with some dissatisfaction.
Ren Danxiong stroked his beard, looked at the Fourth Elder, and said, "That's for sure."
The Fourth Elder snorted coldly:
"Hmph! Old devil Ren, what are you so smug about! Whether we're better or not isn't up to you to decide!"
It's no wonder he's in a bad mood if he misses out on an opportunity to gain favors.
"Alright, Elder Ren, bring out whatever good stuff you have so everyone can take a look," Wang Teng said, stopping the two from arguing.
Upon hearing this, Ren Danxiong stopped arguing with the Fourth Elder and slowly said:
"What the Zhang family of Xuanxiao Mountain brought out was a liter of thousand-year-old stalactites!"
"What!" Wang Teng vanished from his seat in an instant and appeared in front of Ren Danxiong the next moment.
Excitedly, she asked, "Are you telling the truth?"
It's no wonder he wasn't excited; the ancient stalactites were simply too important to him at that moment.
With this, he can repair his hidden injuries and solidify his foundation, giving him the courage to attempt a breakthrough to the Golden Core stage!
And I'm quite confident.
He had waited too long for this moment.
How could he not be excited?
Not only him, but also the Grand Elder, whose status was second only to Wang Teng, came to Ren Danxiong's side.
One liter of thousand-year-old stalactites, the sect leader gets half a liter, and the other half is his.
Even Ren Danxiong, who obtained the thousand-year-old stalactite in exchange, cannot compete with him for it; that's the rule.
"The thousand-year-old stalactite brought out by the Zhang family is naturally far more precious than the Xuan Tu Ling Shen and Yue Hua Qing Xin Cao brought out by the Bi Hai Xian Men."
What else is there to say? The Azure Sea Immortal Sect has withdrawn, and the Zhang family has moved in.
Gentlemen, who agrees and who disagrees?
……
Four more days passed in the blink of an eye.
Zhang Xuanchen also awoke from his cultivation.
After a quick wash, I began to eat the second-grade high-quality spiritual food delivered by Tianya Restaurant.
After consuming the spiritual food, he could clearly feel that his cultivation had improved slightly.
Delicious food that can also improve one's cultivation, strengthen one's physique, and elevate one's spirit—it's no wonder Tianya Restaurant is so popular.
dong dong dong-
"Enter!"
As the voice faded, a fair-skinned girl with a high ponytail, dressed in a uniform, pushed open the door.
Standing at the door, looking at Zhang Xuanchen, he said:
"Young Master Zhang, a young man who calls himself Xiao Yan is looking for you."
"Is that so? Please lead him in." Zhang Xuanchen looked up and said.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Yan was still there. Judging from the time, Elder Dan should have woken up two days ago.
"Yes, young master."
Upon hearing the order, the girl did not hesitate and turned to leave.
Before long, he returned here with a young man.
The girl left and closed the door behind her.
Zhang Xuanchen looked at Xiao Yan and said in surprise, "Good heavens, no wonder you haven't left yet."
So it turns out he broke through to the peak of Qi Refining!
So, your injuries have fully healed, right?
Xiao Yan nodded, looking at the delicious dishes in front of Zhang Xuanchen, such as spirit beef, spirit pepper stir-fried with spirit eggs, and second-grade high-quality tiger bone soup.
My saliva was practically dripping out.
Without any hesitation, they sat down at the table and started eating.
"I've been cultivating for seven days, eating fasting pills every day, and my mouth is so bland it's like a bird's nest."
As he spoke, he picked up a large piece of spirit beef and started eating it.
They praised it while eating.
"I've long heard that the spiritual dishes at Tianya Restaurant are incredibly delicious, and seeing them today, I can confirm that they truly live up to their reputation!"
It's so delicious!
My newly acquired cultivation level feels more stable now.
Seeing Xiao Yan's exaggerated eating habits, it was clear he was really craving it, so he laughed:
"Eat slowly, no one's going to take it from you."
After saying that, he took out a bottle of mild second-tier spirit wine and placed it on the table.
He knew that Xiao Yan had come today to say goodbye.
This meal can also be considered a farewell dinner.
Naturally, spirit wine is indispensable.
After a few rounds of drinks, Xiao Yan let out a satisfied burp.
Looking at Zhang Xuanchen, he said, "Brother Chen, this is the best meal I've had in years."
It's all thanks to you.
I won't say anything more.
Watch my performance.
Next time we meet, I'll definitely bring you some nice things!
Xiao Yan patted his chest and assured him.
Zhang Xuanchen raised an eyebrow and teased:
"Oh? I don't usually care about ordinary things, so you'd better prepare well, hahaha."
"Haha, don't worry, alright, I'm off now, see you later!"
After saying this, he picked up the heavy black ruler with red patterns again and left the Tianya Restaurant.
They also left Daojian Immortal City.
Meanwhile, deep in the mountains, Bai Zijing, who had just dealt with a late-stage Golden Core Vajra Bear, suddenly frowned.
He then closed his eyes and began to calculate.
He kept muttering, "Something's not right, something's not right."
I feel like I've missed out on something.
Seeing Bai Zijing's sudden outburst, Uncle Gu instantly appeared beside him, saying worriedly:
"Young master, what has happened?"
"Based on my calculations, we shouldn't go out today." Bai Zijing's eyes were complicated.
He could only deduce that there was a mistake in the doorway, but he couldn't figure out anything else.
The only ones who could make him act this way are Zhang Xuanchen and the Hidden Dragon of the South Sea.
We'll have to wait until we return tomorrow to ask Zhang Xuanchen what happened.
