"You've left seclusion again, Brother Jiang He?"
Green Touring Palace.
Inside the luxurious underground cave that was illuminated by a myriad of treasures.
The Daoist of Many Treasures stared at Jiang He suspiciously … he claimed to be going into seclusion, but ended up coming out twice in a single day. Only Jiang He would do that.
At their level of cultivation, who wouldn't go into seclusion for a hundred years at a time?
It was common even after thousands or tens of thousands of years.
"I didn't go back to seclusion just now. Instead, I went to the Celestial Court to ask for the third fragment of the God-Killing Spear from the Great Sage," Jiang He explained with a smile before explaining why he came.
"Go to the Western Sect to ask for the God-Slaying Spear fragment?"
Daoist Duobao hesitated and said, "With your current reputation, the two Saints of the Western Sect should not make things difficult for you if you go and ask for the God-Slaying Spear fragment."
"I've prepared some gifts. Considering that I'm not familiar with the two Saints of the Western Sect and the disciples of the Western Sect, I want to invite you, Daoist Duobao." Jiang He then invited the Treasures of Many Treasures, praising, "You are an Elder of Many Treasures and have friends all over the Three Realms and five continents, so you must be acquainted with the disciples of the Western Sect."
"I do know him, but …"
At first, the Daoist of Many Treasures was about to say something, but changed his tone when he considered that Jiang He had spoken, saying, "Well, since I'm free, I'll accompany you to the Western Sect."
The duo flew out of Green Touring Palace and headed for Mt. Numinous in the west.
They flew through the air and arrived at the foot of the Spirited Mountain in just over two hours.
The Treasures of Many Treasures appeared at the foot of the mountain and said to the disciples of the Spirit Mountain, "I am the Treasures of Many Treasures of the Biyou Palace, and this is Jiang He. We have come to the Spirit Mountain today to seek an audience with the two Saints. Make haste and inform them."
The young novice monk was merely a Heavenly Immortal, and he promptly flew up the Spirit Mountain when he heard that it was Jiang He and the Treasures of Many Treasures.
Not long after, the gates of the Spirited Mountain opened, and a personal disciple of the Spirited Mountain Saint with a high cultivation base flew down.
This man was dressed in a white Daoist robe. He had white hair and a white beard, and he held a horsetail whisk in his hand. He was the legendary Patriarch Subhuti of the Cave of Crescent and Tristar, Mount Lingtai and Mount Innerheart.
Patriarch Puti was all smiles as he greeted Jiang He, and after some small talk, he glared at the Daoist of Many Treasures.
Duobao was unhappy and said angrily, "Why are you looking at me?"
"Duo Bao, how dare you come to my Spiritual Mountain?"
Duobao sneered. "Your Western Sect is not a forbidden area. Why can't I come?"
Jiang He: "…"
He was stunned at that moment.
No wonder Duobao had a strange expression when he said that he knew the experts of the Western Sect … It seemed that this "knowing" did not mean that he was on good terms with them, but that he had a grudge with them.
However, when he thought about it, he felt relieved.
In the myths and legends on Earth, the Western Sect and the Dao Sect had always been at odds. Legend had it that after the Apotheosis of the Gods, the Daoist of Many Treasures, Daoist Cihang, Manjushri Heavenly Lord Guangfa, Ju Liusun, Great Master Lingbao and other disciples of the Dao Sect joined the Western Sect.
According to what Jiang He knew, there had been several catastrophes in Primeval's history … but the threat that the Gods, Demons, and their vassal races posed against the Three Realms forced the Three Realms to band together against foreign invaders. While there would occasionally be friction between the Daoist Sect and the Western Sect, it was all within a controllable range, and there had never been a true battle to the death.
Seeing that the Many Treasures and the Puti Puti's quarrel was getting fiercer and that they were about to fight, Jiang He quickly spoke up and stated his intentions.
This time, the Puti Puti's anger turned into a smile as he turned to Jiang He. "My master is aware of your intentions, Brother Jiang He, and has ordered me to bring you the fragment of the God-Killing Spear."
Taking out a fragment of the God-Killing Spear's tip, Patriarch Puti handed it to Jiang He.
Jiang He accepted the fragment and took out a bucket of Dao Enlightenment Pellets as thanks, but the Puti Puti did not accept it. Jiang He said, "The fragment of the God-Killing Spear is of extraordinary value, and I made this bucket of Dao Enlightenment Pellets on a whim. I wouldn't be at ease if you don't accept it, Brother!"
Dao Enlightenment Pellets?
Such a huge bucket?
The Puti Puti's heart skipped a beat before he accepted it.
Beside him, the Daoist of Many Treasures' eyes were bulging as he stared tightly at the crude bucket on the ground.
His heart thumped violently, and his plump body shuddered a few times.
Jiang He exclaimed in surprise, "What's wrong, Brother Many Treasures?"
Coming to his senses then, the Daoist of Many Treasures exclaimed in shock, "Are there really Dao Enlightenment Pellets in the bucket?"
"Yes!"
Jiang He exclaimed in surprise. "It's identical to what I gave you."
He was left puzzled … did the Daoist of Many Treasures not know? Could he have simply put the five buckets of Dao Enlightenment Pellets into his Void Storage without checking them?
"What the hell!"
The Daoist of Many Treasures cursed and roared in rage, "Zhao Gongming … f * ck me … I'm not done with you!"
Whoosh!
The Daoist of Many Treasures promptly took to the skies.
The world quaked over the horizon, and a hole that resembled a rat hole opened up in the skies.
The Daoist of Many Treasures strode out and disappeared inside the hole.
Jiang He gave chase, and realized that the rat hole was a frightening spatial warping technique that directly teleported him from the foot of the Western Sect's Spirit Mountain to the skies above Biyou Palace.
Stepping out of the 'hole', he took out his token plate and opened the array of Biyou Palace, but the Daoist of Many Treasures was nowhere to be seen.
Grabbing a Jie Sect disciple, Jiang He asked, "Brother, have you seen the Daoist of Many Treasures?"
The disciple shook his head.
Jiang He then asked, "You should know where Zhao Gongming's cave dwelling is, right?"
But before the disciple could say anything, a furious bellow could be heard —
"Zhao Gongming, screw you!"
Kaboom!
An explosion could be heard in the distance, and the array outside Zhao Gongming's cave dwelling was directly blown up.
"Ah …"
"Brother Many Treasures … don't hit my face, don't hit my face …"
"Let me explain, let me explain!"
"That's enough, Many Treasures! I'm going to flip out if you hit me again. Isn't it just five buckets of Dao Enlightenment Pellets? I'll just return them to you! "
Ooom!
Twenty-four pearls took to the air and turned into a world, sealing the Daoist of Many Treasures within.
The Daoist of Many Treasures' curses echoed endlessly within that world, and soul treasures soon shot out one after another, blasting the world apart.
Startled, the Biyou Palace disciples all looked up, and someone could not help crying out in surprise, "The Sea Calming Pearl … the Dragon Binding Rope …"
"Martial Uncle Zhao Gongming has invoked his mystic treasure …"
"Brother Many Treasures has invoked his mystic treasure too … What the hell, so many mystic treasures!"
"Quick, who brought the Photographic Stalk …"
Jiang He was dumbstruck.
The Jie Sect disciple's reaction is a little abnormal … shouldn't you be worried?
Jiang He had a hunch.
The five buckets of Dao Enlightenment Pellets that he had given to the Daoist of Many Treasures might have been duped by Zhao Gongming … Yes, he should be beaten up under such circumstances.
They were all Jie Sect disciples anyway, and he did not have to worry about getting serious.
Jiang He found it dull after watching for a while.
While it appeared as if the two were fighting fiercely, it was in fact all showy, with all sorts of mystic treasures flying everywhere.
The Daoist of Many Treasures was certainly powerful and had endless soul treasures, but Zhao Gongming was not lacking either. The twenty-four Sea Calming Pearls manifested worlds that the Daoist of Many Treasures could not break at all.
That was when the Grandmaster of Heaven's aura vanished in a flash.
It was as good as a warning to the two disciples.
"Stop fighting, Senior Brother!"
Zhao Gongming seethed through clenched teeth. "Your five buckets of Dao Enlightenment Pellets are gone if my master attacks!"
"Let me beat you up!"
"Give me two buckets of Dao Enlightenment Pellets and I'll let you beat me up!"
"What the hell are you thinking?"
The Daoist of Many Treasures kept attacking with red eyes.
"One bucket! Just give me one bucket!"
Zhao Gongming yelled, "Half a bucket, half a bucket too …"
The latter part of the sentence was secretly transmitted to him.
"I'll let you beat me up if you give me half a bucket of Dao Enlightenment Pellets … after all, you were the one who gave me those pellets before."
The two quickly put away their mystic treasures after coming to an agreement.
That was when the Daoist of Many Treasures suddenly attacked, invoking a special soul treasure as he approached and instantly sealing Zhao Gongming's mystic energy before pinning him to the ground and giving him a beating.
Well done!
Jiang He praised him inwardly. Soon, the Daoist of Many Treasures held off Zhao Gongming, who was beaten black and blue, and crawled into the cave. However, the Jie Sect disciples who were watching did not disperse, and instead formed into groups of three to five and discussed the fight fiercely.
Someone even used a Shadow Sphere to record the fight just now … especially the scene where the Daoist of Many Treasures pounded Zhao Gongming to the ground and gave him a close up.
The Jie Sect disciple was very excited and quietly said, "A personal disciple of a Saint fighting in melee … a second-generation Jie Sect disciple killing a fellow disciple … this recording is worth at least a hundred thousand immortal crystals!"
"A hundred thousand is too little …"
Another Jie Sect disciple came up to him and whispered, "Junior Brother, I have a channel. We could broadcast the Shadow Spheres in various immortal cities, and anyone who wants to watch would have to pay ten immortal crystals!"
"Even if there are ten thousand people in each immortal city willing to pay, that would be a hundred thousand immortal crystals …"
"We would earn a lot if we travel the immortal cities of the Three Realms!"
The two Jie Sect disciples hit it off, and promptly carefully put away the Shadow Spheres and flew out of Biyou Palace.
Behind them, a third-generation Jie Sect disciple muttered, "Is that a fourth-generation or a fifth-generation disciple? Are they that reckless? Aren't they afraid that Master Zhao Gongming and Master Many Treasures would hunt them down? "
…
Jiang He naturally did not pay attention to all that.
The show was over, and the melons were gone.
He returned to the secret chamber and entered his farm, where the first batch of mystic treasures and medicinal pellets that Dumbo and the others had planted were already ripe.
Curiously, the mystic treasures that were either filled with sinister Demonic Qi or the holy aura of the Gods were shining with immortal radiance after being planted in the farm.
"Eh?
All of them have been converted into immortal items? "
Delight appeared on Jiang He's face.
He had been worried that those items would be useless after he earned Farm Points, but since they had been converted into immortal items, he could trade them with the Jie Sect after he harvested them.
Two inferior-grade immortal items in exchange for one of his.
When the time comes, he could trade for a million or a hundred thousand immortal items and plant another batch …
"Tut, tut …"
"I'm afraid I would have some leftover Farm Points even after I reach Demi-Saint. Still, I happen to be creating a cultivation manual, and the more Farm Points I have, the better."
He harvested the mystic treasures and medicinal pellets.
Jiang He had Dumbo and the others plant the second batch.
Meanwhile, he dug a hole at a corner of his farm and threw the four fragments of the God-Killing Spear inside.
He poured in the Living Soil of the Nine Heavens.
Fill it up.
Sprinkle water.
Jiang He dusted off the soil on his hands and sighed. "I hope it works … or I'll have to go to the Nether River Patriarch for the remaining three fragments …"
