Chapter 226: Dark Yin Energy, The Six Paths of Reincarnation

While gazing at the smiling Ye Qingcang, Shen Tian said in resignation, “You want me to accept this pagoda?”

Ye Qingcang smiled. “I won’t force you if you are unwilling.

“But you have great providence, and things would be perfect if you’re willing to accept this pagoda.

“You just have to expend a bit of Spirit Qi! Young man, how would you improve if you don’t have any pressure? The price you have to pay is nothing compared to the benefits you will receive.”

A bit of Spirit Qi?

He was indeed from the Celestial World. His words were too grand.

Shen Tian felt resigned. “Alright. I will accept this God of War Pagoda. But I have some questions which must be clarified first.”

Ye Qingcang smiled. “You are indeed a cautious fellow. Go ahead and ask me.”

Shen Tian stared at Ye Qingcang. “Exactly how much Spirit Qi is required? Will this God of War Pagoda never be fully repaired?”

Ye Qingcang rolled his eyes. “To completely repair this God of War Pagoda—unless you attain Immortal Ascension, you don’t even need to think about that. As for expenditure, it shouldn’t exceed more than 1,000 Spirit Stones per year.”

One would need to expend 1,000 Spirit Stones every year just to ensure the pagoda doesn’t completely collapse? Isn’t that a lot? Are you trying to trick me?

Shen Tian rolled his eyes right back at Ye Qingcang.

Ye Qingcang quickly added upon seeing Shen Tian’s annoyed expression, “A little less than that would also be fine. But at least 800 Spirit Stones. You really can’t go lower than that. Otherwise, the pagoda will crumble.”

Shen Tian felt that he could negotiate further, but this was not the crucial point now.

He gazed at Ye Qingcang. “If I accept the God of War Pagoda, can I choose who to allow into the pagoda for the battles?”

Ye Qingcang’s eyes flickered. “What a smart kid. You are indeed astute. You want to make use of this God of War Pagoda to earn some Spirit Stones to feed it?”

Shen Tian rolled his eyes again. “Otherwise, how can I get so many Spirit Stones? 800 Spirit Stones. Why don’t you sell me and see if you can obtain such a high price?”

Ye Qingcang smiled. “So it’s true that handsome men are usually intelligent as well.

“Alright, as long as you can offer a stable amount of Spirit Qi to the God of War Pagoda, you can use the pagoda in any way you wish.

“But for the treasures used to exchange for God of War points by the players, I want a 50% cut. Converted to Spirit Stones to repair the God of War Pagoda.”

“Alright,” Shen Tian replied calmly. “But I have full authority over the price of the God of War platform. I have the right to offer a discount to Divine Firmament Sacred Ground disciples and friends who want to battle on the platform.”

Ye Qingcang looked at Shen Tian contentedly. “What a good kid. You are a rather good and loyal friend. You do remind me of when I was young!

“Why don’t we do this? I will lower myself and let you become my god-grandson. I am very sincere in my offer.”

Shen Tian, “...”

Asking me to be his god-grandson? What kind of trick is he playing at?

Weren’t we talking business now? Could you be more serious!?

Shen Tian was exasperated. “Senior, you mentioned before that this God of War Pagoda was where the first master cultivated his Purple Aura. Can it refine all sorts of auras in the entire universe?”

Ye Qingcang nodded. “Of course. Formidable, right?

“You should know that our God of War Pagoda was formed upon the teachings of the Tinder God of War Sutra.

“Your Tinder Sutra is just the most basic and low-level version. At the very most, you can only cultivate until the Golden Body realm.

“Meanwhile, our God of War Sutra is one of the most powerful Tinder Sutras.

“In the future, you can cultivate the Tinder God of War Sutra and then refine your battle skills in the God of War Pagoda.

“With these two, you can become invincible.

“How about that? Doesn’t your blood surge at the thought of that?”

Using the God of War Pagoda to fight others? Become invincible?

Shen Tian was worried the pagoda might collapse, and he would die in the rubble together with his opponents!

Shen Tian rolled his eyes yet again, but Ye Qingcang’s words had triggered a modicum of excitement in him.

“Tinder God of War Sutra? Senior, I bought the Tinder Sutra for five taels of silver. Do you know its true origins?”

Ye Qingcang stroked the Tree of Enlightenment gently as he replied in a calm voice, “You just need to know that the Tinder Sutra is not inferior to any other skill in the world. As for other matters, we will talk about them after you undergo the 36 Heavenly Tribulations. Otherwise, it won’t do you any good to know too much now.”

36 Heavenly Tribulations?

Wouldn’t he be the great Heavenly Emperor by then?

This sly old fellow. He didn’t have to say anything if he didn’t want to. Why did he still have to dangle a carrot in front of him?

Could it be this Tinder Sutra was some super legacy technique from the Celestial World?

But it was cursed by some supreme being, so all its cultivators would become increasingly ill-fortuned?

So anyone who wasn’t gifted enough would not be worthy of knowing the secrets of the Tinder Sutra? One had to become more powerful first?

This was such a strange and convoluted scheme. What happened?

Was this really how the true Celestial World worked?

No, it must be because I am taking it the wrong way!

Things are definitely not so simple. Let me undergo the 36 Heavenly Tribulations and be crowned the Heavenly Emperor first!

But... What will happen if I fail the tribulations?

Haha, I will be struck to death by lightning if I fail the tribulations anyway. Who cares about the secrets then?

...

He would put the Tinder Sutra matter aside for the time being. It was more important now to resolve the issue of providing for the God of War Pagoda.

Shen Tian said, “Since the God of War Pagoda can absorb any kind of energy, then it should also be able to absorb the Dark Yin Energy!”

Dark Yin Energy?

“The moon essence cultivated over days and months. It is the great rejuvenating elixir of many demons and ghosts!”

Ye Qingcang’s eyes lit up. “That is extremely high-quality energy! Much better than normal Spirit Qi. Do you know where can we get that?”

Shen Tian nodded. “When I was training in the Primordial Battlefield’s Trial, I came across a special plain. It was filled with Dark Yin Energy. Very strange!

“I suspect that the core region of that plain might hold some great ill-omened artifact from the ancient times.

“Senior, do you think you can handle it? If so, I can bring you there to take a look.”

Could he handle it?

Ye Qingcang snorted. “It’s just those same few solitary ghosts and wild spirits in that battlefield. None that I would fear.”

With that, Ye Qingcang stroked his sleeve, and a drop of blood flew out of Shen Tian’s right forefinger. It merged into the space before them.

In the next second, the space around them started to vibrate.

Streaks of purple light shot into Shen Tian’s body, going straight into his dantian.

The blood-red colored sky and earth reappeared before Shen Tian. And that towering purple pagoda had shrunk into several inches high, spinning around on Shen Tian’s dantian.

“Wait a minute, Senior...

“Fairy Kong Meng, Lian’er, Eunuch Gui, and the rest are still inside!”

The corners of Shen Tian’s mouth twitched. His companions had not come out, and the God of War Pagoda was already in his belly.

He could feel them all inside his belly now.

A very strange sensation.

Ye Qingcang’s projection appeared by Shen Tian’s side. His eyes were dancing with delight. “Don’t worry. They can’t come out now and won’t burst a hole in your belly.

“Hurry up and bring me to that Dark Yin Energy. This is some good stuff and is akin to the Great Moon Essence.

“By then, you can keep some for yourself. If you have some female ghost or female demon by your side, you can feed her some. She will love it.”

Beads of sweat sprung up on Shen Tian’s forehead. This old fellow had such a unique fetish.

Nevertheless, he could really consider keeping some Dark Yin Energy for Jiu’er. After all, he had known this girl for so long. It was time to give her something good.

...

Shen Tian had no fear on the battlefield with the God of War Pagoda in his belly. He could just kill off anything he was displeased with. Even if any ferocious evil spirit sprung forth from the battlefield, he could just draw out the God of War Pagoda.

Anyway, that old man said he still had three opportunities to use this pagoda to kill off someone—enough power to kill a Perfected Immortal.

Since he was already spending money to maintain it, he might as well use it.

But Shen Tian had already washed his halo clean, and he had not encountered any super soulless creature yet.

He successfully traveled hundreds of miles in the Primordial Battlefield and arrived at an area 1,800 miles away from the borders.

This region was already considered the deepest part of the Primordial Battlefield.

The earth was already tainted the darkest red, while blood-colored clouds rolled in the skies.

The skeletons, Blood Demons, Fiendish Demons one encountered here were nearly all at the Golden Core stage. Few were at the Foundation Establishment stage.

“These Evil Spirit sect members dared to venture so deep just to stir trouble. They are truly not afraid of death.”

According to the fortuitous opportunity image, Shen Tian would soon find the Dark Yin Valley.

Yes, he had come here because of the fortuitous opportunity he had seen on Hei Yuan’s head.

In that image, Shen Tian had seen Hei Yuan barging into a plain covered in Dark Yin Energy.

There was a huge ceremonial altar in the center of the plain. Hei Yuan had kidnapped so many disciples all so he could sacrifice them on that altar.

Through the sacrificial ceremony, he would be able to revive an Evil Spirit Lord from 10,000 years ago and successfully make a pact with this Evil Spirit Lord so that he could enhance his powers greatly.

...

At this point, the Dark Yin Energy had already engulfed the core region of the plain.

A dark-red ball of spirit energy was floating about under the huge ceremonial platform.

Within that dark-red ball, one could vaguely see a malevolent and vicious face.

“Hehehe! Sacred Leader, so what if you used the Six Paths of Reincarnation Disk to seal me off for 10,000 years?

“In the end, my disciples still managed to discover me first. You laid down your life to set up this great array, but it was all in vain.

“Just you wait and see! It will be the auspicious Heavenly Demon day that occurs once every 3,000 years in another few days’ time. The power of your Reincarnation Disk will be at its lowest then.

“That will be the day I will see daylight again. All the Dark Yin Energy you have taken from me, I will get it all back in the end.

“Just you wait and see! 10,000 years have passed, and the door to the Celestial World has already closed. No Perfected Immortal will appear here again.

“When I recover my energy, I will find your sacred ground and your descendants...”

The Evil Spirit Lord kept muttering to itself, spewing out a slew of venomous words!

Suddenly, it seemed to have detected something, and its ghostly figure quivered.

There was a human!

A human had infiltrated the plain!

A deep sense of foreboding arose in the heart of the Evil Spirit Lord.

A special array sealed off this plain, and no soulless creature could ever manage to enter.

But it could feel that an unwelcome presence had infiltrated the area, and it had not just simply barged in.

The Evil Spirit Lord could feel the Dark Yin Energy in the plain become rapidly weaker.

It suddenly felt extremely uncomfortable.

A thief had entered the house!
