Chapter 414 - 236: The Cut Must Be Made (2)
[Record the final throne to obtain a wisp of Cultivation Purple Qi (Acquirable)]
Jiang Man stared at the throne in shock.
’So it’s a treasure used for gathering Spiritual Qi!’
No wonder the Spiritual Qi in the Wuyun Sect was so rich. In addition to the Sect’s efforts, this throne was also responsible.
And the more people there were, the better the throne’s effect.
Cultivating while sitting on it would be incredibly fast.
But one would have to bear the ancient beliefs of the Human Race and shoulder the hope for its future.
Such hope was too heavy a burden. Even as an Unparalleled Celestial Pride, Jiang Man didn’t dare take it on lightly.
"Want to sit on it and see how it feels?" Ji Hao asked from behind.
Jiang Man immediately shook his head. "No thanks. I have a feeling there’s more to this seat."
"However special it is, can it be more special than you?" Ji Hao teased.
Jiang Man smiled faintly and said, "I’m just respecting ancient beliefs."
Seeing Jiang Man turn to leave, Ji Hao didn’t press the matter. "Where to now?"
Jiang Man thought for a moment and said, "I remember an Array called the Nine Paths Primordial Spirit Array. Does the Sect have it?"
Ji Hao nodded. "We do. Want to go check it out?"
Jiang Man nodded.
「Deep underground.」
Jiang Man was utterly shocked as he looked at the massive Array.
Before studying Arrays, he had never felt anything when looking at them.
But after studying them, looking at this Nine Paths Primordial Spirit Array felt like witnessing a masterpiece that defied creation itself.
It was profound and unfathomable.
Afterward, Jiang Man simply approached the Array and lightly touched it.
The Celestial Mirror Hundred Books stopped at page thirty-six.
The original incomplete characters disappeared.
The three remaining strands of Magic Skill Innate Qi fell into his Dantian.
They merged to become a single wisp of Purple Qi.
Back in the Treasure Pavilion, Jiang Man was overcome with emotion.
Since he started cultivating the Evil God’s Technique, he had obtained two wisps of Cultivation Purple Qi and two wisps of Magic Purple Qi.
His Talent had unlocked even further.
Never mind his general cultivation; even the Evil God’s Technique had become immeasurably faster to cultivate.
It used to take five cycles to master the first volume of the Evil God’s Technique to the Entry Level. Now, it would likely take two at most.
"Shall we continue?" Ji Hao asked.
Jiang Man nodded. "Is basically everything else here?"
Ji Hao nodded.
In that case, Jiang Man no longer needed an escort, and he decided to stay here for a while.
He wanted to see if he could discover anything new.
Ji Hao, on the other hand, took the Immortal Dao Coordinate and the locked Storage Treasure, as he needed to make some arrangements.
Afterward, Jiang Man began inspecting the treasures.
Each and every one of these treasures was priceless.
However, under the gaze of the Celestial Mirror Hundred Books, the look in Jiang Man’s eyes changed completely.
It was like looking at a pile of garbage.
[What junk.]
[Not worth mentioning.]
[Broken junk.]
[Unworthy dregs.]
As his head began to ache from inspecting so many items, Jiang Man couldn’t help but sigh with exasperation.
’If I keep this up, I’m going to feel like the Treasure Pavilion should be renamed the Garbage Dump.’
He then began to cultivate to further increase his Cultivation level.
’The exchange should be in late December. I can focus on Cultivation for now.’
「Seven days later.」
Jiang Man still hadn’t finished inspecting everything, but his second Cultivation Gourd was already fifty percent full.
「Fourteen days later.」
「Mid-December.」
Jiang Man hadn’t found anything good.
Only a tiny fraction were worth mentioning.
His Cultivation Gourd was sixty percent full.
「Late December.」
Seeing that the time for the exchange was approaching, Jiang Man had no choice but to turn and leave.
This place was too big. Even after all this time, he hadn’t been able to inspect everything. He would just have to wait for another chance in the future.
By this point, his Cultivation Gourd had reached seventy percent full.
’Give me another month, and I might actually reach the Late Stage of Golden Core.’
Because he was busy inspecting treasures, he couldn’t ask Old Huang about Magic Skills, so that was delayed.
Although his Cultivation had improved greatly, he hadn’t had a qualitative breakthrough.
Afterward, Jiang Man left the Treasure Pavilion and found Ji Hao.
"Finished looking?" Ji Hao asked casually, fiddling with the two Immortal Dao Coordinates on his desk.
Jiang Man looked at the two Immortal Dao Coordinates with some surprise. "How did they become two?"
"One is a fake. It’s just drawn the aura of the real one, so it can pass for genuine." Ji Hao picked up the two Immortal Dao Coordinates and casually handed one to Jiang Man. "This one is real. Keep it on you. Under normal circumstances, it won’t cause you any trouble.
"Even if an Evil God senses it, they’ll sense the fake one on me.
"I’ll block this first wave of prying for you.
"But I won’t be able to block them later on.
"At that point, we’ll just have to find another way."
Jiang Man took it and immediately had it resonate with the Celestial Mirror Hundred Books.
’It really is the true Immortal Dao Coordinate. I have to admit, the two are practically indistinguishable.’
"Didn’t you recently become an Evil God’s Spokesman?" Ji Hao said with a smile. "There should be some Evil Gods who want to ask about the Immortal Dao Coordinate. When the time comes, you can sell me out.
"Whatever price you get is all yours.
"For every Evil God I make contact with, I’ll give you a hundred thousand."
Jiang Man was stunned for a moment, sighing inwardly. ’What an incredibly good person Ji Hao is. He’s highly talented, introduced me to a wife, and even gave me three thousand Spiritual Source just for meeting her. From now on, Mr. Ji is my best friend. No one else even comes close.’
"Also, the Storage Treasure will be unlocked in another two or three days. Don’t peel off the Talisman on it." As he spoke, Ji Hao handed the Storage Treasure back to Jiang Man.
Jiang Man put away the Storage Treasure. Even if it was empty, the Storage Treasure itself was priceless.
’However, I have no intention of selling it. I didn’t bring a gift back for Old Huang this time, so the Storage Treasure will be its gift. A Storage Treasure is definitely convenient. In the future, when it goes out, it won’t have to eat the "good things" other people give it. For example, if it gets caught by the Law Enforcement Hall, it won’t have to trouble the martial brothers there. It can just eat its own grass.’
"That’s about it. The Outer Sect exchange is starting soon. After you go back, I’ll take a trip to that Lingyue Sect you mentioned and see what this special Sword Intent is all about," Ji Hao said.
Hearing this, Jiang Man bid farewell to Ji Hao.
He headed for the Outer Sect.
He went straight to the Third Courtyard.
When Yan Yiqiu saw him, she let out a sigh of relief. "I was starting to think you’d gone missing again."
