Seeing that the attitude of the three from the Magnificent Sect was not bad and that they didn't want to cause trouble as soon as the Xia Clan arrived, Jianchen secretly let out a sigh of relief. Now, he was no longer as fearless as before. Because of the Raging Flame Mercenary Group, Jianchen didn't want to offend too many powerful forces. Otherwise, it would bring disaster to the lives of his brothers in the Raging Flame Mercenary Group.
After exchanging a few pleasantries with the three from the Magnificent Sect, Jianchen invited them into the Kai Clan.
In the small room that Jianchen lived in, Jianchen and the three from the Magnificent Sect sat in front of a stone table. His gaze slowly swept across the faces of the three and he smiled. "I heard that the Magnificent Sect is more than two thousand kilometers away from Wake City. I wonder why the three of you have come all the way here." Jianchen didn't waste time on nonsense and went straight to the point.
Hearing this, the three of them looked at each other and hesitated for a moment. Then, Qing Yun opened his mouth and said, "To be honest, a few days ago, our Magnificent Sect found out that Sir Jianchen has a Rank 5 Monster Core. Our Magnificent Sect needs a Rank 5 Monster Core very much, so our Sect Leader specially ordered me to come to Wake City to see if we can buy the Rank 5 Monster Core."
Jianchen's face showed a trace of regret. He said, "I'm sorry, although I have a Rank 5 Monster Core, I don't plan on selling it because I need it very much myself." Jianchen's cultivation required a large amount of Monster Cores, and the recovery of the Azure Sword Spirits also required a large amount of energy. Although he had a lot of Rank 3 and Rank 4 Monster Cores, they weren't enough for him to squander for a long time. A Rank 5 Monster Core was equivalent to a hundred Rank 4 Monster Cores to Jianchen. It was even more powerful than a hundred Rank 4 Monster Cores. Therefore, Jianchen definitely wouldn't sell a Rank 5 Monster Core. Moreover, he didn't lack money at the moment.
Although a Rank 5 Monster Core could be bought in a bustling city where experts gathered, in this remote Wake City, a Rank 5 Monster Core was very precious. Moreover, even if one could buy a Rank 5 Monster Core in a big city, it was very expensive.
Hearing Jianchen's words, Qing Yun and the other two people's faces were filled with disappointment even though they had already expected this result. Level 5 Monster Cores were extremely precious. Even with the influence of the Huatian Sect, it was very difficult to obtain one. If one went to a big city to buy one, it would be possible to buy one, but at the same time, the risk was extremely high. If the news was leaked, it would be hard to avoid encountering bandits along the way. In the Tianyuan Continent that was filled with strife, it was not as if there were no Earth Saint Master bandits. In some large bandit groups, there were even Heaven Saint Masters who were at the pinnacle.
After chatting with Jianchen for a while, Qing Yun and the other two people hurriedly left.
When they returned to the inn, Qing Yun and the other two people gathered in a room with the windows tightly shut.
"Martial Uncle, this Jianchen really didn't want to sell the Rank 5 Monster Core. What should we do now?" The bald man, Qing Mu, asked.
Qing Yun frowned and said, "This Jianchen person may look young, but based on my many years of experience, I can tell that he is not simple. He is very mysterious and his strength is very shocking. Although I can't accurately estimate his strength, the fact that he was able to participate in a battle with a Rank 5 Magical Beast is enough to prove that his strength is not ordinary. I estimate that he is even stronger than me. Uncle Liu Zheng of the Xia Clan must have been killed by him."
"Martial Uncle, are we going to just go back like this?" The one who spoke was Qing Shan, his face full of unwillingness.
The middle-aged man was silent for a while before saying, "To have such strength at such a young age, the only thing I am worried about is that Jianchen must have an extremely powerful background. We cannot act rashly on this matter. I must personally return to the Tian Hua Sect and report this matter to the Sect Leader and ask him to make a decision. Qing Yun, Qing Shan, the two of you will stay in Wake City for the time being. Keep an eye on the recent movements in Wake City, but remember, do not go to the Kai Clan to cause trouble. Everything will be discussed when I return."
"Yes, Martial Uncle." The two of them replied at the same time. Although the three of them looked to be about the same age, Qing Yun's position in the hearts of Qing Mu and Qing Shan was clearly not ordinary.
Qing Yun did not hesitate for a moment. After giving his instructions, he immediately rode his Rank 3 Magical Beast at full speed towards the Tian Hua Sect two thousand miles away.
In the Kai Clan, Jianchen was temporarily staying in a small independent courtyard. Ever since Qing Yun and the other two left, Jianchen had been sitting in front of a stone table with his head lowered, deep in thought.
The temptation of a Rank 5 Monster Core had already exceeded Jianchen's expectations. He did not think that for a Rank 5 Monster Core, even a powerful organization with an Earth Saint Master would not hesitate to travel thousands of miles just to purchase a Rank 5 Monster Core. Jianchen clearly knew that if it were not for his strength that made them fear him, the Rank 5 Monster Core in his hands would have already been taken by someone else.
Today, he had first sent away the Xia Clan. Not long after, the Huatian Sect, whose strength was not any weaker than the Xia Clan, had arrived. Both of these Clans were not to be trifled with. Both of them had Earth Saint Masters. Who could say for sure whether or not there would be even stronger Clans or even more Clans looking for him in the future?
Earth Saint Masters were already enough to pose a threat to Jianchen. From the previous battle with the three Rank 5 Magical Beasts, Jianchen had already vaguely guessed that if he were to encounter a Rank 1 or Rank 2 Earth Saint Master, he should be able to deal with them with the Azulet Sword Qi. If he were to encounter a Rank 5 or Rank 6 Earth Saint Master, his chances of survival would be very slim.
The difference between Earth Saint Masters was also very large, which was why they were divided into Rank 6. The difference between the Rank 1 and Rank 6 was like an insurmountable chasm.
The Earth Saint Masters of the Xia Clan and the Azulet Sect were already enough to make Jianchen feel threatened, especially the Flame Mercenaries. They seemed to have a few Great Saint Masters, but if they were to go up against those large clans, they would have no chance of victory.
"I need to use this time to increase my strength." Jianchen made up his mind and immediately returned to his room.
Sitting cross-legged on his bed, Jianchen held a Class 4 Monster Core in each hand as he thought to himself. Ever since he broke through to Great Saint Master and communicated with the Azulet Sword Spirits, he understood that they were currently incomparably weak. They needed large amounts of energy to slowly recover, and the strength of the Azulet Sword Spirits was directly related to the strength of his Sword Qi. If he could let the weakened Azulet Sword Spirits recover some of their strength, then the Sword Qi he could borrow would be even more powerful. However, Jianchen did not dare guarantee that he would be able to let the Azulet Sword Spirits recover some of their strength.
Right now, he had two methods to increase his own strength.
The first was to directly channel all of his energy to the Azulet Sword Spirits so that they could recover as soon as possible and borrow their powerful Sword Qi.
The second was to directly use the energy on himself to increase his own strength. However, if he followed the second method, then unless he reached the peak of Great Saint Master, he would not be able to threaten an Earth Saint Master.
