Celestial Refining Divine Scripture

Secretly manipulating things to transfer the last two Golden Immortal Talismans, and actually ending up having to give away a second-tier high-grade Immortal Artifact—who could possibly laugh this off?

The shock continued to ripple out, with everyone in awe of Xu Yang’s unbelievable luck.

But seeing the ashen faces of the entire Yang Family, the experts from the five great powers outside almost burst out laughing.

That’s just too tragic.

So tragic it made them feel sorry for the Yang Family.

Good lord, barely got anything in, but lost three Golden Immortal Talismans and a high-grade second-tier Immortal Artifact to boot.

Terrifying beyond compare!

"Does Mr. Xu really have some means or treasure to see through things?"

"Or maybe... his luck is just freakishly scary."

"Do you think the Yang Family actually transferred the last two Golden Immortal Talismans?"

As soon as this was said, the five experts exchanged glances.

They all knew perfectly well—there must’ve been some trick to it.

"Ahem, let’s not discuss this any further."

A member of the Ye Family coughed dryly, quickly changing the subject.

If this went on, luck wouldn’t be the issue anymore.

The key point is, what kind of treasure or method could secretly see through everything without triggering the restrictions at all?

That’s just beyond belief.

"Let’s call it a day."

Xu Yang grinned, somewhat disappointed as he put away the second-tier high-grade Immortal Artifact.

With four Daluo Sabers, he honestly didn’t care for this second-tier one.

Besides, it wasn’t even a saber, but a staff.

Strong, maybe, but totally useless for him.

Hearing Xu Yang give up the rest of his chances, Yang Zhenyuan finally breathed a huge sigh of relief.

This kind of luck had well and truly scared him.

He even suspected that if the Golden Immortal Talismans hadn’t been moved, the fourth treasure might’ve been another Golden Immortal Talisman as well.

Yang Yuan suppressed his gloom and said blandly, "No need to mind, Mr. Xu. Such a loss is nothing to my Yang Family."

"Then should I continue?"

Xu Yang’s lips curled up.

"..."

Yang Yuan was about to lose it—he was just being polite, did this guy really take it seriously?

Yang Zhenyuan nearly choked on his own breath.

"Hahaha, just kidding!"

"By the way, Mr. Yang, this Immortal Artifact isn’t of use to me. Can I exchange it for something of equal value here?" Xu Yang lifted the Immortal Artifact and asked.

"You may."

Yang Yuan narrowed his eyes and nodded.

Yang Zhenyuan quickly stepped forward. "Mr. Xu, this way please."

Xu Yang shot Yang Yuan a smiling nod, then followed Yang Zhenyuan to the other side where treasures of standard value were on display.

"This Immortal Artifact is a second-tier high-grade piece, but since it’s a staff, its price is a bit lower than an Immortal Sword or Immortal Saber. We’ll price it at twenty-eight million second-tier Immortal Crystals—does that sound acceptable to you, Mr. Xu?"

"Sounds good."

Xu Yang nodded slightly. That was pretty much market price.

Normally, second-tier high-grade Immortal Artifacts could fetch thirty to fifty million second-tier Immortal Crystals.

But staff users really aren’t as common as saber and sword wielders.

Plus, this Immortal Artifact was basically a freebie for him.

A little less was no big deal.

Seeing Xu Yang’s indifferent expression, Yang Zhenyuan’s heart was bleeding.

This Immortal Artifact was less than thirty million second-tier Immortal Crystals, but those three Golden Immortal Talismans... their value was practically beyond estimation.

This time, the Yang Family had truly lost both people and treasure—a disastrous loss.

And on top of that, their reputation took a serious hit.

Xu Yang casually scanned over all the treasures in front of him.

Divine Weapons, Immortal Seals, rare ingredients—everything was laid out.

"Eh, what’s this?"

Xu Yang suddenly halted before a certain treasure. It was a grayish white stone, about the size of a chicken egg, oval-shaped, with a mottled surface like ordinary rock.

But the aura it released made his heart skip a beat.

Wind element!

He cultivated Windfall Immortal Wilds, and was extremely sensitive to wind.

Yang Zhenyuan came over for a look and said, "This is a Wind Roar Stone Elixir, from the body of a Wind Howling Unicorn. This kind of Immortal Beast controls the power of wind, extremely fast, riding the wind like lightning, treading clouds and riding winds. During its cultivation, it will nurture this item inside its body—not a stone but an elixir, containing all the wind transformations it mastered in life."

"Very beneficial for comprehending secret techniques and divine powers related to wind attributes."

"This beast, in life, was at the early phase of the Late Stage of Celestial Immortal realm. This Wind Roar Stone Elixir is valued at eleven million second-tier Immortal Crystals."

"I’ll take it."

Xu Yang didn’t hesitate at all.

This Stone Elixir could help him deepen his comprehension of Windfall Immortal Wilds.

Getting the Stone Elixir, Xu Yang’s heart was stirred.

Four Immortal Techniques—Wind, Rain, Thunder, and Fire.

If he could find more precious items of this sort, his understanding would benefit immensely.

These four Immortal Techniques can’t be rushed—must accumulate gradually.

Anything related to them, he wanted.

"There’s seventeen million left. Are there any more items like this here?" Xu Yang asked Yang Zhenyuan.

"Let me look."

Yang Zhenyuan was unwilling as hell, but there was nothing he could do.

He took out a treasure list and carefully combed through it.

A while later, he pointed at an entry, "Mr. Xu, this item is also wind-related. It’s the Red Wind Wings, the twin wings of a Red Ming Wind Cloud Sparrow. They contain the beast’s bloodline meaning, and can be fused into a cultivator’s body. When dashing, it’s like growing a pair of wings—greatly increases speed."

"Price: fifteen million."

"I’ll take those."

"The remaining two million second-tier Immortal Crystals—please exchange them for me," Xu Yang said with a grin.

Yang Zhenyuan honestly wanted to curse out loud.

Shameless or what?

Only two million left, and you still want it counted?

Utterly brazen!

But thinking of Xu Yang’s identity, Yang Zhenyuan had to swallow his frustration and nodded in silence.

While Yang Zhenyuan went to get the treasure, Xu Yang turned back, only to see Yang Yuan was already gone.

Maybe he just didn’t want to see me again.

Xu Yang didn’t care in the least.

This trip had been a huge windfall.

"After this, the Yang Family will probably be so furious they’ll spit blood."

But as long as I feel good, that’s enough.

When Yang Zhenyuan returned with the treasures and crystals, Xu Yang accepted them straight away, cupped his hands, and said, "Please tell Mr. Yang for me—I’ll be going on ahead. Farewell."

"Take care, Mr. Xu."

Yang Zhenyuan forced a polite smile to see him off.

Once Xu Yang left, his face immediately turned as black as the bottom of a pot.

Glancing outside, he saw the five great powers’ experts laughing so hard they could barely keep their mouths shut—sympathy and mockery written all over their faces. He was so mad his eyes shot sparks, huffed coldly, and stormed off.

Heading into the room behind, Yang Zhenyuan forced a bitter smile and said, "Young master, we’ve lost far too much this time."

"Do you think he could really see through the truth?"

Yang Zhenyuan was stunned, then frowned and pondered: "Young master, there are indeed such treasures or methods in the world, but with his cultivation, even if Dan Qi gave him something, to do so without any movement—it’s absolutely impossible!"

Hearing this, Yang Yuan took a deep breath, the finger tapping on the table slowly coming to rest as his face turned uncertain and sullen.

"He’s gone?"

"Gone."

"Let it be, then."

With that, Yang Yuan got up and left from the back.

Yang Zhenyuan stared dumbly at Yang Yuan’s departing figure—just let it go like that?

Then he showed a bitter smile.

What else could they do?

Kill Xu Yang?

Or go rob the treasures back?

Don’t be ridiculous.

This loss... they could only swallow it whole.

On the other side, Xu Yang met up with Senior Brother Yi Que.

The two had been watching from outside earlier, now both in awe, erupting in laughter.

Xu Yang claimed, naturally, it was luck.

The two Senior Brothers didn’t actually doubt him.

But as for the Yang Family—just infinite sympathy for them.

Soon after, Xu Yang approached the experts from the five great powers and stated his purpose.
