Cultivating for a hundred lifetimes to ascension

Chapter 566: The “Chicken Rib” Life Pearl and Gray Mountain Mutation (Part 2)


"Senior, did you bring the cultivation technique?"

"Naturally!"

After the white-robed elder spoke, he retrieved a two-finger-thick beast skin book from his sleeve and placed it between them.

Seeing this, Zhao Sheng immediately reached into his own bosom, took out a thin book stitched with thread, and placed it in the center as well.

"Please!"

"Please!"

As soon as the words were spoken, both of them tacitly picked up the books and began to read.

The two had agreed beforehand that the cultivation techniques must be written in the Spirit Realm script.

Fortunately, the scripts of the Taiching Spirit Realm and the Taiyi Spirit Realm were almost identical, so reading them was quite smooth and posed no difficulty at all.

A quarter of an hour later, Zhao Sheng nodded slightly, preliminarily confirming that this part of the cultivation technique had no obvious mistakes or errors.

At the same time, the white-robed elder also verified the authenticity and was very satisfied with the result.

Subsequently, they exchanged the middle and final parts of the cultivation techniques.

The higher the realm involved, the harder it is to discern the authenticity of the cultivation technique, making forgery naturally easier.

This is because most people have never cultivated to that realm.

Of course, Zhao Sheng was definitely an exception; trying to deceive him with a fake cultivation technique was as difficult as reaching the sky.

Fortunately, the white-robed elder seemed genuinely sincere, as the Nascent Soul and Divinity Transformation Chapters of the "Six-nine Elemental Thunder" showed no flaws to him.

This technique not only contained nuances in its every word and phrase, but its fundamental concept far surpassed that of the "Twelve Layered Clouds Tribulation Avoidance Scripture."

Any cultivator, upon breaking through to the Golden Core Realm, must face a round of heavenly tribulations each time they ascend to a higher realm.

For any cultivator, the heavenly tribulation is considered the greatest calamity on their path.

When facing heavenly tribulation, all cultivators are extremely cautious and fearful, avoiding it at all costs, and among them, only one in ten emerges successfully.

However, the "Six-nine Elemental Thunder" goes against the norm, starting directly with the heavenly tribulation, forcibly turning the calamity into an advantage!

Other cultivators either resist the tribulation lightning head-on or use methods to weaken its power, whereas the "madmen" who practice the "Six-nine Elemental Thunder" boldly rush into the tribulation cloud, absorbing the tribulation lightning power in unique ways, attempting to refine the tribulation energy for their own use.

To those of sound mind, the act of refining tribulation lightning equates entirely to suicide.

However, as the world is unpredictable, the Heavenly Dao is capricious!

In all universes, there is no shortage of exceptionally gifted and insane individuals.

These "madmen," with extraordinary aptitude and intellect, often actively cultivate the "Six-nine Elemental Thunder," aiming to climb higher peaks and glimpse the scenery above Returning to Void.

Although the vast majority of them perish under the heavenly tribulation, their bones obliterated by the tribulation lightning.

Yet, a very few with profound fortune manage to ascend to the Spirit Realm with this technique and ultimately are accepted into Thunder Peak Mountain.

By this time, Zhao Sheng had already realized the extreme danger of cultivating the "Six-nine Elemental Thunder," yet he... was unafraid but rather delighted!

"White Scales, you never mentioned before that cultivating this technique is so perilous!"

Zhao Sheng quickly closed the book, looking at the white-robed elder across from him with a grim expression, seemingly questioning him.

"The same goes for you! You also didn't mention the shortcomings of the Immortal Golden Body, did you? While the concept of the technique is decent, it is overly focused on the 'Vajra Body' aspect, neglecting 'flexibility.'

"Haha! A 'same goes for you.' Since you can see the shortcomings of the Immortal Golden Body, your realm doesn't seem low; could it be that you are also a Fellow Daoist in the Divinity Transformation Realm?" Zhao Sheng laughed heartily, suddenly probing the other.

The white-robed elder was secretly startled but maintained an inscrutable smile.

Zhao Sheng restrained his smile without further pressing the issue.

In fact, when both of them took out a Divinity Transformation-Level cultivation technique, it already indirectly proved their extraordinary nature.

In his view, White Scales was at least a Nascent Soul Ancestor, and the possibility of being a Divinity Transformation True Monarch was not small either.

At this moment, a burly man in yellow armor and helmet crouched in front of Zhao Sheng's stall, pointing at the Ten-thousand-year-old Thunder Wood Sword, and asked, "Vendor, how much for this lousy wooden sword?"

"The main body of this sword is a section of Ten-thousand-year-old Thunderstruck Wood, containing three Treasure Restrictions, with power comparable to a Mid-grade Magical Treasure. One piece of Pocket World Jade, and it's yours!"

"What? A piece of Pocket World Jade?! Are you crazy? I... I don't want it anymore."

The yellow-armored man directly stood up and walked away without a hint of bargaining.

When the man walked away, the white-robed elder suddenly transmitted a message secretly: "Bai Mei, be careful. If someone invites you to join them later, do not agree! They are looking for cannon fodder, do not fall for it."

Hearing this, Zhao Sheng's eyes flashed, and he transmitted a message back: "Senior, I noticed this place is much more lively than before. Has something happened here?"

"You guessed right! Do you remember that bizarre gourd vine last time? It's highly likely that it came from a legacy of great ability on Gray Mountain, rumored to be the palace of an Immortal with endless treasures. Thus, this place has recently become bustling, with many forming numerous treasure hunting teams heading to Gray Mountain."

"White Scales Fellow Daoist, aren't you being overly cautious? With our strength in the Divinity Transformation Realm, can we still be easily deceived? Who's the cannon fodder then, it's not certain." Zhao Sheng pretended to be nonchalant.

"No, no! They say caution is the key to navigating a boat for ten thousand years safely! After all, the rules of the Burial Immortal Ruins make it unique, hiding too many old monsters. A mere Divinity Transformation is ultimately insignificant, it's all about survival!" The white-robed elder clearly had some painful experience, hence spoke with self-assured caution.

Soon after, someone approached the two, speaking extravagantly and offering rich rewards to entice Zhao Sheng and the white-robed elder to join them.

Time and time again, they refused.

After all, just some seemingly dubious "Spiritual Elixir Treasures" would not be enough to catch the eye of two "Divinity Transformation True Monarchs."

Additionally, there was someone with an extraordinary presence who claimed that if they found the rumored treasure within the True Immortal Mansion, thought to be a palace of a long-lived True Immortal with countless treasures, they would share it with all members.

Zhao Sheng felt somewhat tempted hearing this, but the white-robed elder remained unmoved, as steady as a rock.

Until someone from above the Returning to Void Realm approached, making Zhao Sheng and the white-robed elder take it seriously.

Verifying the visitor's cultivation beyond the Returning to Void Realm is quite simple.

Having the Golden Muscle and Jade Bone Body is one of the most distinguishable features of someone beyond the Returning to Void Realm, and it's next to impossible to fake.

In the end, Zhao Sheng politely declined that great ability's invitation.

The newcomer, seeing this, straightforwardly stood up and left without pressing them to join.

After all, if a real confrontation broke out, Zhao Sheng and the elder could "log off" at any time.

Shortly after, Zhao Sheng completed three trades in a row, not only exchanging a dozen thousand-year-old spiritual medicines for more than eighty grains of Space-Time Sand, but also selling that Ten-thousand-year-old Thunder Wood Sword for a great price.

An elder with a bearing of authority and a face of red whiskers exchanged his Moonlight Jade Dew, Ancient Earth Lungs Poison Fire, and Hundred-Orifice Spirit Jade for the Ten-thousand-year-old Thunder Wood Sword

After the trade, Zhao Sheng couldn't help but suspect that the Ten-thousand-year-old Thunder Wood Sword had some peculiar use beyond its appearance.

For instance... against some unspeakably mysterious existence outside the long street.

Shortly after, Zhao Sheng discovered a huge surprise. On a newly opened stall nearby, he actually saw a Demon Fire that bore an extreme resemblance to the Death Soul Black Flame, at least indistinguishable in appearance and presence.

Having inquired about it, Zhao Sheng did not believe a single word of the vendor's boasting, who claimed it came from the head of a Star Sea Giant Demon, a supreme object rarely seen in all universes.

Because he was very familiar with the Death Soul Black Flame. Therefore, when he quickly named many characteristics of this demon flame, the vendor's face quickly changed visibly.

Just over an hour later, the repulsive force of the surrounding space-time had already peaked, and after bidding farewell to the white-robed elder, Zhao Sheng dematerialized, returning to the Da Chun Realm.
