At the Ten Thousand Swords Sect.
The Mahayana elites of the eight factions had delivered Jiang He's spiritual compensation in a great temple.
There had been nine factions, but the remaining Mahayana Daemon Bear of the Thousand Cavern Mountain had swept away their treasure vault, which was why there were only eight factions left. Still, Jin Sidao had found the item left by the Daemon Bear, which had its aura.
Jin Sidao had seen Jiang He casting his spell with his own eyes …
Reverse.
Either way, he simply took out a thunder talisman and threw it nonchalantly, saying that the Daemon Bear was dead. There was no way to tell if he was really dead.
"Brother."
Inside the temple, the sole surviving Mahayana demonic cultivator of the Blood Demon Sect was all smiles as he handed a Spatial Ring to Jin Sidao.
Jin Sidao could not help frowning when he scanned it with his divine mind.
The demonic cultivator's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly asked, "Is the number wrong, Brother Dragon Abyss?"
"The number is correct."
Jin Sidao said. "One demi-immortal item, three premium-grade sage items, and a thousand superior-grade spirit stones … but why do you only have five hundred superior-grade spirit stones?"
The demonic cultivator could not decide if he should laugh or cry. "Brother Dragon Abyss, you know that most sects don't have many spirit stones, and superior-grade spirit stones are even rarer. Don't I have five thousand mediocre-grade spirit stones in my Spatial Ring? Five thousand mediocre-grade spirit stones is equal in value to five hundred mediocre-grade spirit stones. "
"But Lord Jiang He only wants superior-grade spirit stones."
Jin Sidao nonchalantly threw the Spatial Ring to the demonic cultivator and flatly said, "If you don't have enough superior-grade spirit stones, you could trade with other sects, or offer mystic treasures, spirit pellets, spirit medicines, or item refinement materials that are worth five hundred superior-grade spirit stones."
The many Mahayana cultivators promptly became worried.
Trade?
While one superior-grade spirit stone was equal in value to ten mediocre-grade spirit stones, who would be willing to trade with you?
On the other hand, the Mahayana cultivator of the Unbounded Demon Sect appeared indifferent.
The Unbounded Demon Sect was the top demonic sect with profound resources. It was certainly possible for them to fork out a mere thousand superior-grade spirit stones and still have some left. Hence, he promptly took out his Spatial Ring and handed it to Jin Sidao, before smiling at the others. "The Unbounded Demon Sect would be able to gather around another thousand superior-grade spirit stones. I could give you some if you need it, Brothers."
"How?"
Someone was tempted.
The Mahayana cultivator of the Unbounded Demon Sect said, "Fifteen middle-grade spirit stones for one high-grade spirit stone."
"What? Why don't you just rob a bank? "
Some people cursed, and some people were tempted.
On the other hand, Jin Sidao frowned and showed a look of displeasure.
Motherf * cker, that son of a bitch of the Limitless Demon Sect actually dared to do business in my Myriad Sword Sect?
The Unbounded Demon Sect was certainly powerful and had six Mahayana elites, but Jiang He had killed three of them, leaving only three of them now … Jin Sidao had obtained a demi-immortal armor and would soon acquire a demi-immortal flying sword, which was why he did not fear the Unbounded Demon Sect at all.
Laughing coldly, he took out his communications jade charm and quietly contacted Jiang He.
Then, he cleared his throat and said, "Brother of the Unbounded Demon Sect, Lord Jiang He has just sent word, saying that the Unbounded Demon Sect is the leader of the nine factions' encirclement against him, and it would be the greatest blow to his spirit and spirit. That is why the Unbounded Demon Sect would have to fork out 2,000 superior-grade spirit stones."
"What?"
The demonic cultivator of the Unbounded Demon Sect was seething with rage, Demonic Qi churning around his body as he roared, "Dragon Abyss, you dog! Do you have a death wish?"
Jin Sidao replied flatly, "Brother, this is Lord Jiang He's will. Don't you think it's a little too much to yell at me?"
Kaboom!
Jin Sidao promptly rose to his feet, a raging sword will instantly bursting out of his body.
With the Dragon Abyss Sword hovering over his head and a demi-immortal armor over his body, he stared coldly at the demonic cultivator of the Unbounded Demon Sect and sneered, "Moreover, do you think the Unbounded Demon Sect has the ability to kill me?"
Everyone was left stunned.
A demi-immortal armor?
Jin Sidao's ability was overwhelming in the first place, and as a sword cultivator, there was almost no cultivator who could say they could win him in a one-on-one fight. In fact, he was the only Mahayana elite in the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, which was why he kept a low profile.
Now that he had obtained a demi-immortal armor, he would be even more difficult to deal with.
Even if the Unbounded Demon Sect had three Mahayana elites left, it would be easy for them to defeat Jin Sidao if they worked together, but it would be impossible for them to kill him.
The demonic cultivator of the Unbounded Demon Sect scowled and seethed through clenched teeth, "Jin Sidao, the immortals are about to return. Jiang He is but a grasshopper at the end of autumn and would not last more than a few days. Would the Ten Thousand Swords Sect really offend the nine factions for him?"
"When the immortals of all nine sects come, could the Ten Thousand Swords Sect stop them?"
The Ten Thousand Swords Sect, however, was unconcerned and chuckled. "Would you let me go if I don't help Jiang He now? Moreover, the nine sects have immortals, but the Ten Thousand Swords Sect doesn't? "
Of course.
Most importantly …
With Jiang He's personality, the immortals of the nine sects would have to face Jiang He's wrath once they return … who would know how frightening Jiang He's combat ability would be when the time comes?
The cultivator of the Unbounded Demon Sect could only grit his teeth and swallow his words.
His heart was bleeding when he took out the remaining 1,000 superior-grade spirit stones.
He had thought that he could earn a fortune, but he did not expect that he would suffer a bloody loss!
Jin Sidao accepted the eight Spatial Rings and quickly left the sect, rushing to Jiang He's house. Jiang He was having a meal at the moment — premium-grade Dragontooth Rice paired with stir-fried beef with green peppers was truly fragrant.
Jiang He asked Jin Sidao to stay for dinner, but the latter quickly declined and left after putting down the eight Spatial Rings.
Jiang He ate three large bowls of rice and a plate of stir-fried beef with green peppers at once. After he was full, he extended his senses over his body and exclaimed in surprise, "What's going on? I definitely felt my mystic energy surging after eating the peppers and my combat ability improved. But why is the side-effect gone? "
"Could it be that I'm too powerful that the side-effect doesn't work on me?"
Jiang He mused to himself for a while before turning towards Hu Mei, who had changed into a maid costume similar to Sora's at some point in time. Hu Mei was clearing the dining table at the moment, her tail wagging and her figure lithe, and promptly said, "Hu Mei, come upstairs with me."
Hu Mei put down her bowl and chopsticks and followed Jiang He upstairs. After Jiang He had taught her a lesson, Hu Mei stammered coquettishly, "Master …"
What happened next was an indescribable scene.
Two hours later, Jiang He took a bath and only dressed himself after musing to himself, "It seems that the pepper's side-effect doesn't work on me. My reaction just now was a normal reaction a hot-blooded man would have when he sees a woman. If that's the case, I can eat the pepper without restraint."
Jiang He did some calculations.
With his current ability, the Sword Array of Ten Realms and Infinity he set up with three immortal flying swords and seven demi-immortal flying swords already had the combat ability of an average Heavenly Immortal. If he ate a pepper, his combat ability would increase by fifty percent, and he would be able to fight a Heavenly Immortal-intermediate.
"If I could use ten immortal items to set up the Sword Array of Ten Realms and Infinity, its power would definitely increase tremendously. When the time comes, I would be able to kill a Heavenly Immortal-intermediate if I unleash everything I have."
Jiang He could not help imagining Hu Mei's body as the thought occurred to him …
Others aside.
Such a fox girl was quite the flavor.
She had a good figure, great martial arts, and most importantly, that unique charm that other women did not have.
Stepping out of the mansion, Jiang He headed straight to his farm.
Over four hours had passed, and all the Heavenly Thunderbolt Hand Grenades in his farm had 'ripened'. Looking out, there were many three-foot-tall steel trees growing in a corner, each of which had three hand grenades hanging on it.
After being planted and beautified, the hand grenades were much more pleasing to the eye than the metal lumps he had just crafted.
Jiang He reached out and plucked one of the hand grenades.
[Ding!]
[+ 2 million Farm Points.]
Jiang He: "???"
He was at first surprised, but soon became delighted … if one hand grenade was a reward of two million Farm Points, did that not mean three hand grenades per tree would earn him six million Farm Points?
There were a total of 108 steel trees …
He had spent 324 million Farm Points on the Living Soil of the Nine Heavens, and not only did he not suffer a loss, he even earned 324 million Farm Points?
"It doesn't matter if I earn Farm Points or not, but the more Farm Points I earn, the more valuable it is … a hand grenade worth two million Farm Points is probably more powerful than a Violet Sky Thunder Talisman!"
Jiang He looked at the hand grenade in his hand.
Data appeared before his eyes.
[Heavenly Thunderbolt Hand Grenade]
[Hand grenades refined from heavenly thunderbolts are incredibly powerful and could slay immortals and buddhas. A must-have item for household use.]
[Usage: Throw with great force.]
Jiang He was a little disappointed after reading the data.
There was actually none …
Hold your head and drop to the ground. It was a notification for Absolute Defense.
Without such a notification, the grenades might be weaker in power, but that was not for certain. He had to experiment to know.
[Ding!]
[+ 2 million Farm Points.]
[Ding!]
[+ 2 million Farm Points.]
[Ding …]
He plucked the hand grenades one after another and put them into his Void Storage before leaving his farm, ready to find an empty spot to experiment …
Nonetheless, Wang Hou's phone call came just as he stepped out of his farm. He was immeasurably anxious as he said, "Bad news, Jiang He. Another Sky Demon has arrived on Mars, and he is so powerful that he could be above Heavenly Immortal."
"Moreover, from the looks of it, the Sky Demons are ready to charge into Earth at any moment."
Jiang He's face dropped.
He chatted with Wang Hou for a while before hanging up …
Almost a hundred Mastery, hundreds of Sufferance, four Heavenly Immortals, and one suspected to be above Heavenly Immortal …
Leaving aside the innumerable Convergence, Yuan Spirit, True Child, and Golden Pellet Sky Demon legions, the four Heavenly Immortals and the Sky Demon elite above Heavenly Immortal were enough to wipe out all of Earth.
Jiang He breathed a long sigh, a look of determination flashing in his eyes …
"The Sky Demons must not be allowed to reach Earth!"
"Otherwise, they would spread out randomly. With so many elites, even if the immortal sects, demonic sects, ancient daemon cultivators, and Sacred Physique worked together, they would have a hard time stopping them …"
He looked up at the skies and said somberly, "That is why I must attack first, and do my best to wipe out the Sky Demon legion before they reach Earth … but how do I get to Mars?"
The shortest distance between Earth and Mars was fifty-five million kilometers, while the farthest was four hundred million kilometers …
It would take too much time to physically cross the stars, and it would be bad if they teleported to Earth through the portal while they were flying.
"Teleport through the portal?"
Jiang He mused to himself.
According to Jin Sidao, the various immortal sects, demonic sects, and ancient daemon cultivators all had warp portals that connected directly to Mars … but the Sky Demon legion on Mars had countless elites, and teleporting to their center was no different from suicide.
"There are too many Sky Demons, and there are even elites above Heavenly Immortal, which is why there's no hope in fighting them head-on … I'm going to engage in guerilla warfare to wear down their forces as much as possible, and it would be best if I could reach Mars from outer space."
Whipping out his phone, Jiang He dialed Wang Hou's number and asked, "Wang Hou, could you control the Star Map and send me near Mars?"
"No."
Wang Hou flashed a pained smile. "I've only grasped part of the Star Map's power, and it's very powerful … if I could control it completely, I could directly cover Mars with it and burn all the Sky Demon elites to death. Why would I have to worry?"
"Jiang He, you're not thinking of killing your way to Mars, are you?"
"No, absolutely not …"
Wang Hou was still talking, but Jiang He had already hung up.
That was when Hu Mei came to him. She had come to deliver tea to Jiang He, but ended up overhearing the conversation between Jiang He and Wang Hou, and asked, "Master, do you want Mars?"
"I could bring you there!"
"I'm a perfected Heavenly Immortal. Although I don't walk the Dao of Space and can't use Spatial Transference, I'm extremely fast in the universe. I'll only need half an hour to reach Mars."
Delight appeared on Jiang He's face and he hugged Hu Mei for a kiss, saying, "You're really my lucky star, Hu Mei. Alright, there's no time to lose. Let's depart."
Slap!
Hu Mei threw the teapot in her hand away and sprawled on the ground.
She reached out and patted her perky bottom and willowy waist, saying coquettishly, "Master, come on."
Jiang He: "…"
Is that …
A fox-girl mount?
Fine.
Hu Mei was a Nine-Tailed Fox and would have no problem as a mount, but you're in human form right now. How am I supposed to ride you like that?
Hmmm …
He could ride her, but how could this ride be the same as that?
Jiang He could imagine himself riding a fox-girl in a maid costume as he streaked through the boundless outer space, and could not help shuddering. "You should revert to your true form."
