Han Jianqiu had once told him about the Six Sects, including the Seven Star Pavilion. The Universe Shaking Seven Star was the number one pavilion in the Azure. It was the largest trading center on the Forsaken Continent, and it sold all kinds of treasures and weapons.
Two hundred Superior Immortal Pills was a huge sum no matter where it was. Even if Wuhai City was hopeless, there was a chance that it might not be the case here.
The aerial immortal beast soon descended.
Before them was a massive square, and it was likely to be the most prosperous place in the entire Biyuan City.
"Sect leader, that's the Seven Star Pavilion!"
The disciple was very familiar with Biyuan City, so it seemed like he was a frequent visitor. He gestured with a smile.
Zhang Xuan followed his finger and saw a cluster of towering buildings. There was a total of seven of them, and they were arranged according to the layout of the Seven Star Pavilion. They formed a massive formation in the sky.
"Impressive …"
Zhang Xuan's heart skipped a beat.
It was no wonder why the Seven Star Pavilion could become one of the Six Sects.
While the Seven Star Pavilion wasn't as grand as the Ascendant Cloud Sword Pavilion or the Myriad Beasts Hall, it was aligned with the Seven Star Pavilion in the sky.
"Sect leader, do you want to take a look?"
The disciple asked with a smile.
"There's no need for that. Where's the Ethereal Hall of Biyuan City? Bring me there! "
Zhang Xuan shook his head.
He didn't have any treasures that he needed, so he wasn't too interested in the Seven Star Pavilion.
Besides, if the other party were to insist on making him their sect leader, should he turn them down?
Just one Sect Leader was good enough. Too many would be troublesome!
After all, outstanding people were as dazzling as fireflies in the dark no matter where they went. It was impossible to hide from them.
"The Ethereal Hall is right beside the Seven Star Pavilion!"
Zhang Xuan turned his gaze over and saw another towering building not too far away from the Seven Star Pavilion. It wasn't as majestic as the Seven Star Pavilion, but it wasn't any weaker either.
Zhang Xuan followed the crowd in.
"How much does a True Immortal Ethereal Token cost?"
"Two thousand Seven Star Coins or Ethereal Coins!" the attendant replied.
"I'll buy one!"
Zhang Xuan breathed a sigh of relief.
From the looks of it, the Ethereal Coins here were roughly the same as the Wuhai City. Two thousand Ethereal Coins wasn't that expensive.
After buying the Ethereal Token, Zhang Xuan rented a silent chamber and had the disciple from the Myriad Beasts Hall stand guard outside. After which, he set up a few Isolation Formations and sat down cross-legged.
With great familiarity, Zhang Xuan entered the Ethereal Hall once more.
"I want to buy items!"
He handed over the token that Kong Shi had given him.
"Wait a moment …"
Upon seeing the token, the faces of the attendants of the Ethereal Hall warped in horror, and they hurriedly left. Not too long later, an elder of the Ethereal Hall returned, and with a respectful look on his face, he kneeled on the floor and kowtowed deeply.
"Esteemed guest, you have the token of the Hall Master, which is equivalent to the Hall Master's personal visit. May I know what you wish to purchase?"
"Two hundred Superior Grade Immortal Pills!"
Zhang Xuan.
"Two hundred?"
The elder was startled.
He had seen people buying Basic Immortal Pills at most, and they would buy them ten by ten at most. They would eat a hundred of them in one go like they were candy.
On top of that, Basic Immortal Pills were extremely expensive. Every single one of them was worth twenty thousand Ethereal Coins. Two hundred of them in one go would be more than four million Ethereal Coins!
That was more than enough to buy an entire city!
"Indeed. Just tell me if you are able to take them out or not!"
Zhang Xuan frowned.
"This …" The elder hesitated for a moment before nodding. "It should be possible if we gather all of Biyuan City's Ethereal Coins. However, we'll have to apply for it from the Ethereal Hall headquarters first. Give me a moment …"
"Un." Zhang Xuan nodded.
Not too long later, the elder was done asking for Zhang Xuan's permission. With a smile on his face, he said, "The headquarters have already approved the two hundred Basic Immortal Pills. Esteemed guest, all you have to do is to activate the Teleportation Formation on the token, and you'll be able to take the pills out."
"I'll be troubling you then."
Heaving a sigh of relief, Zhang Xuan left the Ethereal Hall.
Returning back to the silent chamber, he tapped on the jade token lightly.
Hu!
Twenty jade bottles appeared before him, and each of them contained ten Ethereal Pills.
"Here are two hundred Basic Immortal Pills. If you are unable to break the seal after swallowing them, I'll teach you a lesson!"
Zhang Xuan harrumphed coldly as he brought the Dongxu Gourd out from his dantian.
"Don't worry, I'm a legendary beast who dominates the world. It's just that I'm temporarily trapped in the Dongxu Gourd. As long as I have sufficient energy, I'll be able to break free and unleash my might!"
The Dongxu Gourd harrumphed coldly.
"Alright, hurry up!"
Zhang Xuan could not be bothered to listen to the Dongxu Gourd's bragging.
Hearing those words, the Dongxu Gourd began spinning furiously, and a powerful suction force burst forth. The two hundred Basic Immortal Pills immediately flew toward it.
Geji! Geji!
Despite being swallowed, the Dongxu Gourd did not feel the slightest discomfort. On the contrary, its aura grew stronger and stronger.
Previously, the Basic Immortal Pills that the Dongxu Gourd had swallowed were all Basic Immortal Pills. Now that it had advanced to high-tier, its strength was at least several hundred times stronger than before. In an instant, the Dongxu Gourd began shaking nonstop, as if it would explode at any moment.
Boom!
Following which, an invincible aura burst forth from the Dongxu Gourd. Cracks began appearing all around the Dongxu Gourd, as if the space itself was unable to withstand its might.
"How powerful!"
Zhang Xuan's eyes glowed in excitement.
It seemed like the Dongxu Gourd hadn't lied to him.
Just this aura alone was enough to show that the Dongxu Gourd was stronger than even the black-robed man from the Hall of Gods!
The Dongxu Gourd wasn't lying, and the two hundred Basic Immortal Pills were not wasted either.
It was fortunate that he had set up an Isolation Formation beforehand, or else the commotion would have attracted quite a few people.
As the aura grew stronger and stronger, a thin crack appeared on the wall of the Dongxu Gourd, and it seemed as if it would burst open at any moment.
"It's about to burst open!"
Zhang Xuan widened his eyes in astonishment.
He was extremely curious about the Dongxu Gourd, and he wanted to know what would come out of it.
Based on the Dongxu Gourd's words, it was a legendary beast that had dominated the world.
Considering how powerful immortal beasts were, he had never seen a legendary beast before. He wondered how powerful it would be.
Kacha! Kacha!
The crack grew thicker and thicker, and all of a sudden, it stopped right below the first protrusion.
"What's wrong?"
Seeing the rising auras coming to a halt at the same time, Zhang Xuan frowned doubtfully.
"This …"
The Dongxu Gourd chuckled awkwardly. "It seems like I miscalculated. The energy is still lacking … Why don't you give me another two hundred Basic Immortal Pills? I guarantee that I'll be able to break the Dongxu Gourd this time around."
"You want me to give you another two hundred Basic Immortal Pills?"
Zhang Xuan nearly fainted on the spot.
Do you really think that Basic Immortal Pills are candy?
To think that two hundred of them are still insufficient … Do you have to be so vicious?
Besides, while the jade tokens that Kong Shi had given him were limitless, allowing him to purchase countless treasures that could help him raise his cultivation, the two hundred Basic Immortal Pills that Biyuan City had given him was already the limit. To ask for another two hundred …
Most likely, Kong Shi would be chasing him down with a saber!
"You should just stay in the Dongxu Gourd for now …"
Zhang Xuan waved his hand speechlessly.
He had been thinking that he would be able to break the seal on the Dongxu Gourd so that he could have a powerful divine beast as his tamed beast … But from the looks of it, it seemed like he had been thinking too much!
The Dongxu Gourd was as unreliable as ever!
"If you don't have any pills, a weapon will do as well. The Tongshang Sword isn't too bad either …" the Dongxu Gourd said.
The Tongshang Sword in his storage ring trembled a little.
Paying no heed to the unreliable fellow, Zhang Xuan stowed the Tongshang Sword back into his storage ring before walking out of the chamber.
The main reason he had come to Biyuan City was to break the seal on the Dongxu Gourd, but it turned out that the Dongxu Gourd was still unable to do so.
"Hall Master Zhang!"
Upon seeing Zhang Xuan, the disciple immediately rushed forward to welcome him.
"Let's continue on our way!"
Zhang Xuan shook his head helplessly.
Since he was unable to break the seal on the Dongxu Gourd, it would be better for him to continue on his way.
In any case, he had disguised himself, so the Hall of Gods wouldn't be able to detect his presence.
"Alright!"
The disciple of the Myriad Beasts Hall took out an aerial saint beast from his tamed beast sack and leaped onto the Dongxu Gourd.
Zhang Xuan was just about to leap onto the Dongxu Gourd when he suddenly felt a chill in his heart.
"Sh * t! Run!"
Zhang Xuan shouted, but before he could finish his words, he saw the body of his tamed beast swelling up.
Boom!
It exploded on the spot!
The explosion of a Heavenly High Immortal realm primary stage immortal beast caused a powerful shockwave to surge into the surroundings. Before the disciple on the back of the Dongxu Gourd could escape, he was already sent flying into the distance.
Peng!
Zhang Xuan drove his zhenqi to form a barrier around his body to block the shockwave. However, barely after he took a few steps back, he suddenly felt a chill on his back once more.
Sou sou sou!
Six powerful forces attacked him from the front, back, left, right, top, and bottom, as if they wanted to crush him into meat paste in an instant.
"Damn it!"
Zhang Xuan clenched his fists tightly. He felt as if his head would explode at any moment.
With a flick of his wrist, he took out the Tongshang Sword.
In the blink of an eye, he had already executed a defensive sword art, forming a defensive barrier around him.
Peng peng peng!
The six surges of energy struck the Tongshang Sword, and it felt as if he was being rammed by a train. With every strike, Zhang Xuan felt as if the web between his thumb and index finger was being torn apart, and he felt a stifling sensation in his chest.
Pu!
Unable to withstand the sixth surge of energy, Zhang Xuan spurted a mouthful of blood.
"To be able to withstand my attacks despite being in such a disadvantageous position, you're not too bad!"
A voice said.
Driving his Heaven's Path zhenqi, Zhang Xuan swiftly recovered from his injuries before raising his head.
Three figures appeared before him. They were all young men, and just like the black-robed man from the Hall of Gods, they were at Heavenly High Immortal realm as well. However, they seemed to be even stronger than the black-robed man from the Hall of Gods.
Zhang Xuan's body stiffened as he quickly scanned his surroundings.
Just like before, he had been pulled into a folded space, such that the aura from the explosion of the saint beasts did not leak out at all.
"Why did you attack me?"
Zhang Xuan narrowed his eyes in fury.
"Why? If I'm not mistaken, you must be the newly-appointed sect leader of the Ascendant Cloud Sword Pavilion, Zhang Xuan, right? "
The young man at the very front asked calmly.
"You are from the Hall of Gods?"
Zhang Xuan narrowed his eyes in astonishment.
He had disguised himself so well that he could guarantee that he would not reveal his identity at all, but the other party was able to call out his name without any hesitation. On top of that, he would really be a fool if he still could not figure out who they were!
Just that … how did the other party notice him and find him?
