The Great Wild God - Chapter 349

Chapter 349 Demon Girl
Normally speaking, unless a precious treasure appeared, Daoist Primordial Core would rarely appear twice in a row at the Treasure Appraisal Meeting. I don’t have that much free time.

The magic tools and pills Chen Xun had given to the disciples of the Guihai Pavilion were only a small portion of the magic tools and pills he had obtained from looting the loose cultivators last time. He was waiting for the treasure appraisal meeting this time to exchange the large amount of magic tools he had seized for the cultivation resources he urgently needed.

Zhao Hongling and an Elder surnamed Chen from the Guihai Pavilion followed Chen Xun into the Jewel Appraisal Hall of the Treasure Pavilion.

At this time, the cultivators of Blackstone City also believed that the Guihai Pavilion was a small sect that belonged to Skydragon Seed. As for why Skydragon Seed wanted to support a small sect that had a grudge against him for killing disciples, no one would dwell on it.

If everything was reasonable, how could an evil cultivator be called an evil cultivator?

Chen Xun saw that apart from Donghua and the others, even Marquis Jinghai and Blackstone City Master Shao Xi Kang, who were rarely seen in the Myriad Treasures Pavilion, were sitting in the VIP seats. They strode over and greeted him, “Marquis Jinghai, Fellow Daoist Donghua, long time no see.”

“Fellow Daoist Shi Long, long time no see.” Shaoxi Kang greeted.

Although Shaoxi Kang was the Jinghai Marquis of the Ji Yue Kingdom, he was an Origin Core Reverend, and he was a peerless expert standing above the crowd. Secular power could not be considered an important bargaining chip.

Beside Shao Xi Kang sat a female cultivator who looked like a young girl. She wore a goose-yellow skirt, and her figure was graceful and graceful. The light veil covered her beautiful face faintly. Her slender and translucent neck revealed a proud and charming temperament.

Her deep eyes were hidden behind the veil, and she glanced at Chen Xun without the slightest intention of greeting him.

Chen Xun wanted to see the woman’s appearance through the veil. He never thought that his divine sense would reveal a trace of killing intent when it touched the veil. It was like a prairie fire that directly extinguished the divine sense that he had just penetrated.

Chen Xun’s heart skipped a beat. He hadn’t expected that the Dharma Aspect Realm expert who had been hiding behind the stone wall of the Treasure Evaluation Platform the previous time was actually this seemingly inconspicuous young lady in front of him!

If it wasn’t for him wanting to see her face clearly, he wouldn’t have recognized her.

Chen Xun’s mental state was also extremely strong. He didn’t know if Daoist Donghua, who was sitting beside him, recognized this woman’s aura. He casually sat down and said to Daoist Donghua,

“This time, the Myriad Treasures Pavilion obtained two Spirit Gathering Mountain and River Chariots. The Guihai Pavilion needs one, and the remaining one will not compete with you, Fellow Daoist Donghua.” He patted the bag of holding on Daoist Donghua’s waist. “Fellow Daoist Donghua, your purse is really plentiful this time. It can really be said that ‘Ma Wuye is not fat, no one is not rich without windfall’. Fellow Daoist has done a lot of things for the heavens in the past six months, right?”

Although Daoist Donghua had done a lot of “walking the path for the heavens”, how could his skin be as thick as Chen Xun’s?

He could feel the gazes cast by the cultivators behind him and wished he could find a crack in the ground. If he had known that evil cultivators like Shi Longzi wouldn’t be able to touch them, they would have been like shit and wouldn’t even be able to wash them off …

Apart from the 97 Ranked Spiritual Swords left for later cultivation of the Lesser Thousand Swords Formation, Chen Xun packed and processed the Ranked Spiritual Artifacts, medicinal pills, and other items he had obtained from his previous move into the Myriad Treasures Pavilion, converting them into 200 million jin of Scarlet Essence Copper. He even sold the nine Earth Ranked Low Grade and Medium Grade Spiritual Artifacts that he did not need through this Treasure Appraisal Conference.

Daoist Donghua had a thick skin. He would never auction the magical artifacts he had seized at the Treasure Appraisal Conference. He would only quietly dispose of them.

Evil people still needed to be tempered by evil people. Half a year ago, they had caused quite a lot of peace in the sea area near Blackstone City. However, many cultivators who boasted decent manners still did not act like Chen Xun and the others.

However, the vast majority of cultivators had low cultivation levels. Even though they were filled with disdain for Chen Xun and the others’ actions, they didn’t dare to reveal anything in front of them.

The young girl sitting beside Shao Xi Kang had no scruples. She snorted coldly with a straight nose and was extremely dissatisfied with the expression on Skydragon Seed’s face.

“This woman has a demonic aura!” Old Kui hid in the Void Origin Pearl and communicated with Chen Xun through his spiritual will.

Half a year ago, at the Treasure Appraisal Conference, after the young girl hid in the stone wall, Chen Xun had a dispute with Daoist Donghua. This woman had leaked her killing intent as a warning.

At that time, in order to avoid exposing their identities, Chen Xun and Old Kui didn’t even think about investigating this woman’s background.

At this moment, this young girl was sitting beside Shaoxi Kang, several zhang away from Chen Xun.

Chen Xun was afraid of arousing the vigilance of the other party and sat upright. Old Kui only had a skeleton left in his body, but his primordial spirit was at the peak of the Heavenly Human Realm. Few people in Cloud Continent could compare to him. He hid in the Void Primordial Pearl and probed her for a while, but he was not afraid that she would be discovered.

Hearing Old Kui’s words, Chen Xun was secretly shocked.

In ancient times, it was common for humans to have intercourse with Fiendgods.

The current descendants of those who possessed the Ancient Desolate Bloodline possessed much higher cultivation aptitude than ordinary people.

Only hundreds of thousands of years, tens of thousands of generations had passed. Those who possessed the Ancient Desolate Bloodline, their ancestral divine and demonic bloodlines were already extremely rare.

There was no way to tell if they still possessed the aura of a Fiendgod or Demon Race unless they were able to see through their Soul Sea Aliens.

Old Kui said that this woman had demonic aura. Either she was disguised as a Transformed Heavenly Yao, or she was a descendant of the demon race who had merged with humans, and she had an extremely obvious demon bloodline on her body …

Chen Xun wasn’t surprised. It had only been thirty to fifty years since the Myriad Treasures Pavilion had appeared in Blackstone City. On the surface, it didn’t have anything to do with the Crimson Star Palace or the Shaoxi clan. However, unless there was an enormous sect force behind it, it would be extremely difficult to develop such a large force in Blackstone City in such a short period of time.

Chen Xun had been guessing who the sect behind the Myriad Treasures Pavilion was, but he hadn’t expected it to have anything to do with the demon race.

Chen Xun glanced at Shaoxi Kang and saw that he was quite familiar with this woman. Although he could not hear what their secret voice was communicating with, when he saw them looking at each other, he had a smile on his face. He thought to himself that Shaoxi Kang should know about this woman’s background. Could it be that the Shaoxi Clan was secretly colluding with the demon race?

*************************

The Treasure Appraisal Society was bustling for the middle of the night. Chen Xun had also obtained a Spirit Gathering Mountain River Chariot and several bottles of demonic beast precious blood as he wished.

Chen Xun had handed over the goods. When he left the Treasure Pavilion with Zhao Hongling and Elder Chen of the Ocean Return Pavilion, a servant beside Shaoxi Kang ran over and invited him to the White Jade Pagoda for a banquet.

Chen Xun handed over the Spirit Gathering Mountain River Chariot to Zhao Hongling and Elder Chen. He followed Shao Xi Kang into the White Jade Pagoda.

Shao Xi Kang was in the front, and Chen Xun thought to himself, the White Jade Tower was the center of the Treasure Pavilion, and the sealing array was also located in the White Jade Tower. Shao Xi Kang’s ability to entertain guests in the White Jade Tower undoubtedly meant that his relationship with the Treasure Pavilion was much closer than what outsiders had spread.

Chen Xun ascended the stairs and ascended to the top floor of the White Jade Pagoda.

Outside the tower, he saw that the tower was small, but over ten zhang tall. However, when he entered the tower, Chen Xun felt that the space in the tower was much larger than he had imagined.

The spinning white jade staircase was untainted. It lifted up the staircase, slightly reflecting a figure of 999 levels. Chen Xun was secretly shocked. He didn’t expect that this pagoda was also a cave magical artifact that possessed the ability to bend space.

The jade wall had the effect of concealing his divine sense. Apart from following Shao Xi Kang to ascend the Suihu Tenth Order Tower, Chen Xun was also able to see how many restrictions there were inside the White Jade Tower from afar.

At the top of the tower, there was an open hall with no obstruction. One could see the Elephant Mountain in the north of the city. All the lights were under the tower.

Over a dozen cyan jade cases, Shaoxi Kang and the masked girl sat in the middle. Donghua, Fushan, Hengzhou, and the other nine Origin Pill Taoist were also invited to take their seats one step ahead of Chen Xun. Only Chen Xun and Myriad Treasures Pavilion took a bit longer to settle their goods.

“I’m sure you all already know that the Crimson Star Palace discovered a secret place in the outer sea in the early years. These past few years, they’ve mobilized their manpower to remove the restriction of formations and enter the secret place to search for treasures.”

Shaoxi Kang greeted him and quickly got to the point, saying,

‘”This matter has nothing to do with the Shaoxi clan, but the Scarlet Star Palace’s exploration of the secret grounds has not progressed smoothly. Furthermore, because they have stayed in the Fallen Star Sea for too long, they have alerted the nearby demons. They have no choice but to send reinforcements from the Shaoxi clan to prevent any accidents. Our Shaoxi clan is sparsely populated and there are no experts in the clan. May I ask if you intend to explore the secret grounds together with the Shaoxi clan and the Scarlet Star Palace …”

Chen Xun remained silent. The Myriad Treasures Pavilion had long revealed its intention of recruiting people. At this moment, Young Master Xi Kang had made it clear that half a year had passed. Speaking of the Young Master Xi Clan not rushing to reinforce the Crimson Star Palace, he wasn’t sure if the demon race that appeared in the sea area near the secret ground was related to the demon race girl sitting beside Young Master Xi Kang.

Donghua, Fushan, and the others also revealed hesitation. Apart from the three of them, there were also dozens of Origin Core warriors in the Crimson Star Palace. Even the Crimson Star Palace was unable to catch them, so they needed to seek outside help. It could be seen that the secret land was not that easy to enter.

At this moment, the Crimson Star Palace had alerted the demons in the sea area around the secret land, so it was naturally even more dangerous.

Usually, they had sects to worship them, and even directly controlled several to dozens of villages. There was really no need for them to risk their lives for such a thing. This time, Ji Yue Island was not invaded by any foreign enemies, so the Crimson Star Palace and the Shaoxi Clan had no right to recruit them to defend against their strong enemies.

“How far is the secret land from Ji Yue? Which Exalted of the Crimson Star Palace is there to preside over it?” A black-faced cultivator asked.

“The secret place is Mountain Long. It looks like a floating island. It appears in the Falling Star Sea every thousand years. It is shrouded in fog all year round and is not seen by the world. Mountain Long was not a secret in the Fallen Star Sea, but it was millions of miles away. No one knew where the Mountain Long Secret Land would appear in a thousand years. The Crimson Star Palace was also lucky to discover the location of Mountain Long’s secret land. It was about a hundred thousand kilometers away from Ji Yue Island. If you intend to follow the Shaoxi Clan to reinforce the secret ground, Shaoxi Kang will naturally tell you the details. “At this moment, Venerable Cold Moon and Venerable Iron Light of the Crimson Star Palace are all near the secret ground …” Shao Xi Kang said.

Chen Xunweng said, “Old blame me for saying those ugly words. We can follow Marquis Jinghai to see if we can. If we have the ability to help, we naturally won’t idle away our time. If we search for a secret place that far surpasses our cultivation, Marquis Jinghai can’t blame us for leaving …”

“As long as you swear that you will not reveal the location of this secret place, the Shaoxi clan and Crimson Star Palace will definitely not make things difficult for you,” Shaoxi Kang said. “Everyone who follows Shaoxi Kang and Yan Lan to the secret place, regardless of whether the matter can be accomplished or not, the Shaoxi clan will give them high-grade Earth-ranked magical artifacts.”

He could obtain a high-grade Earth-ranked magical artifact with just a glance. Not to mention Donghua, Fushan, and the others, Chen Xun was somewhat tempted.

Earth-ranked magical artifacts were divided into four categories: low-grade, medium-grade, high-grade, and top-grade. The majority of them were low-grade, mid-grade, and top-grade magical artifacts. The number of high-grade and top-grade magical artifacts decreased drastically, not much more than the number of Heaven-ranked supreme treasures.

If a high-grade Earth-ranked magical artifact were to appear in the Treasure Pavilion, no one would be able to keep it in their pockets without more than a hundred million jin of Scarlet Essence Copper.

Even if Chen Xun claimed to be a Treasure Daoist, he would never think that there were too many Earth-ranked magical artifacts.

The young girl called Yan Lan, who was sitting beside Shaoxi Kang, saw that everyone had already moved. She raised her snow-white hands and patted them three times. Soon, the ten beautiful waiters each carried a jade plate and climbed to the top of the tower.

Each jade plate had an Earth-ranked magical artifact placed on it. Judging from the spiritual light leaked out, it was undoubtedly a mid-grade Earth-ranked magical artifact.

The ten waitresses walked over to Chen Xun and the others and stopped.

The magical artifacts on the ten jade plates were different, but looking at the expressions of Donghua and the others, Chen Xun could tell that this young lady called Yan Lan had already figured out the cultivation methods cultivated by everyone. The magical artifacts she had given them were all urgently needed by everyone.

What shocked Chen Xun even more was that the waitress standing in front of him had a three-foot jade sword placed on the jade plate.

Chen Xun entered Ji Yue Island to impersonate Master Shi Long. He had never used a sword art to kill his enemies. For a moment, he didn’t know how this woman named Yan Lan discovered that he was actually a sword cultivator, or whether she knew his true identity long ago …

“Fellow Daoist Shi Long’s sacrifice of the Blood Crow’s aura is still flourishing, causing everyone to feel fear. However, I can always feel a trace of sword intent emanating from Fellow Daoist Shi Long’s body. I believe that this exquisite jade sword can satisfy Fellow Daoist Shi Long even more?” The young girl said softly.

“Alright” Chen Xun was shocked. He thought to himself, “He hasn’t formed a Core Formation in the Great Freedom Sword Intent’s Sense Seed yet. Even if the young girl has a cultivation at the Dharma Aspect Realm, how can she sense the sword intent in his body?”

Chen Xun thought of another thing. Apart from the 97 spirit swords that he robbed, all the other magic tools and pills were packed and thrown to the Treasure Pavilion for disposal. This woman was most likely judging that he was collecting spirit swords.

Chen Xun smiled in his heart. He didn’t expect this woman to be scheming so deeply that she wanted to use this trick to deceive him. He thought that he would have to stay away from this woman in the future, but he smiled and said,

“This jade sword looks like it’s used by a woman. I don’t like such a delicate sword. If Marquis Jinghai can exchange it for a magical artifact, I’ll risk my life to accompany Marquis Jinghai on this trip.”

The young girl’s jade face stiffened slightly as she hid behind the veil. She looked coldly elsewhere, as if she was unwilling to lend a hand to this ungrateful “Grandmaster Stone Dragon”.
