Regarding Jiang Chengxuan’s choice, Perfected Lord Nether Star made no comment.
Soon, he put away the other items.
At this moment, as Jiang Chengxuan was putting the stone into his bag which contained the Spirit Devouring Beetle King, he suddenly felt two malicious gazes fall upon him.
This made him frown and turn his head to look.
He saw Tianfu and Tianhe watching him with cold eyes.
Suddenly, Tianhe spoke to Wu Bingyun:
“Fairy Wu, who are these two Daoists? I don’t recall having seen them before?”
Upon hearing Tianfu and Tianhe inquire about Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan, a hint of coldness flashed in Wu Bingyun’s eyes.
However, before she could speak, Perfected Lord Nether Star beat her to it.
“I mean, you two, does Fairy Wu need to inform you about who she invites?”
These words immediately caused the expressions of Tianfu and Tianhe to stiffen.
Jiang Chengxuan had no intention of talking to them.
He slowly stood up and took out two items from his body.
One bottle of Spirit Spring Marrow and one Primordial Law Elixir.
Both were items that could enhance the Dharmic power and cultivation of a grand cultivator.
At that moment, the eyes of everyone present fell on the two items in his hands, filled with desire.
Jiang Chengxuan said, “Everyone, the value of these two items is
self- explanatory.
I wish to exchange them for high-grade Level 5 five-elemental or lightning-element spiritual materials.
Of course.
What I most desire is the Green Dragon Divine Wood.
If not available, any exact information regarding its whereabouts would suffice.
Of course.
Information like the location of the Dragon’s Lair is unnecessary.”
Hearing Jiang Chengxuan’s words, everyone present was somewhat astonished.
They didn’t expect that what he most wanted was something like the Green Dragon Divine Wood, a treasure highly valued by the dragon lineage.
Even some Soul Formation Heavenly Lords and demon lords had difficulty obtaining such an item, let alone them.
“Fellow Daoist Jiang…”
At this moment, an elder named Perfected Lord Dong Yuan suddenly took out a piece of wood flashing with purple lightning arcs from his belongings.
“You said a high-grade Level 5 lightning-element spiritual material can be exchanged for that Primordial Law Elixir, right?
I wonder if this thousand-year-old Purple Thunder Wood in my hand would suffice?”
Seeing the Purple Thunder Wood taken out by Dong Yuan, Jiang Chengxuan turned his gaze to Shen Ruyan by his side.
Seeing Shen Ruyan nod at him, Jiang Chengxuan said:
“Sure.”
As they spoke, the two of them had already exchanged things.
Following this, others in the venue started to present the five-elemental spiritual materials Jiang Chengxuan needed.
However, the quality of these materials was slightly inferior compared to high-grade Level 5.
Jiang Chengxuan did not agree.
Just then, the host Wu Bingyun suddenly took out a jade slip and said to Jiang Chengxuan,
“Fellow Daoist Jiang, I have some information about the whereabouts of the Green Dragon Divine Wood.
However, I can’t guarantee it’s 100% accurate, only about 70% likely.
Are you interested in this?
Rest assured, I can sign a contract with you to guarantee that what I’m saying is all true, with absolutely no deception intended.”
Hearing Wu Bingyun’s words, Jiang Chengxuan immediately became interested.
His impression of Wu Bingyun was quite favorable.
Especially in such matters, if it were other cultivators, deception might be expected.
Anyone deceived could only blame their bad luck.
But as the host, Wu Bingyun obviously couldn’t act like everyone else.
If she also engaged in exchanges using false or deceiving items, and it was discovered, the reputation of the entire Ice Jade Palace would be affected.
In the future, any trade fair held by the Ice Jade Palace would likely not attract many participants.
So.
In this matter at hand, the words of Wu Bingyun were quite credible.
Even so, Jiang Chengxuan would still go through all the necessary procedures and sign the required contracts, without missing any step.
Without much hesitation, he quickly reached an agreement with Wu Bingyun for this exchange.
After obtaining the jade slip from Wu Bingyun, Jiang Chengxuan immediately began to carefully examine its contents.
According to the jade slip, there should be a secret space in a place called Fallen Dragon Valley in the Western Deserts.
And the Green Dragon Divine Wood that Jiang Chengxuan sought was likely located in that secret space.
This meant that if Jiang Chengxuan wanted to find the Green Dragon Divine Wood as indicated in the jade slip, he would have to make a journey to the Western Deserts.
This really means I have to travel around the entire Nine Essences Cultivation World.
Jiang Chengxuan smiled bitterly in his heart.
But he couldn’t deny that this clue was currently his best lead to obtaining the Green Dragon Divine Wood.
After all, with his current strength, Jiang Chengxuan did not dare venture into the Dragon’s Lair.
Even the Heavenly Lords would hesitate to do so.
After some time,
The Trade Fair ended.
The group of cultivators also began to leave.
However, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan did not hurry to leave.
They approached Wu Bingyun and Perfected Lord Nether Star, who were still present, and inquired,
“Fellow Daoist Wu, Fellow Daoist Nether Star, regarding the super large cross-region teleportation array to the Western Deserts, do you know if such a facility exists here, and when it might be activated?”
Their situation was not like it had been in the Eastern End.
Here in the Southern Wilderness, they had not encountered the pursuit of major forces.
Especially with the Supreme Celestial Sect, although not close allies, they were at least acquainted. If possible, they preferred not to travel thousands of miles across two regions.
Even though the journey from the Southern Wilderness to the Western Deserts through the Abyss of Celestial Beasts was the safest route at the moment, it would still take them several years to fly there with their current speed.
Direct travel through a super large cross-region teleportation array would be much more convenient.
Upon hearing Jiang Chengxuan’s inquiry, Wu Bingyun and Perfected Lord Nether Star exchanged glances, and then Perfected Lord Nether Star said,
“Do you two plan to head directly to the Western Deserts?”
Before Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan could reply, Perfected Lord Nether Star continued with a wry smile,
“To be frank, all of our super large cross-region teleportation arrays to the Western Deserts and the Northern Border have been destroyed by the Great Ling Imperial Palace and the Heaven’s Gate Sect.
They only left the teleportation arrays leading to the Eastern End and the Central Plain.
I believe that as news on our end spreads throughout the Nine Essences Cultivation World, the people in the Western Desert and Northern Border will become extremely wary of those from the Eastern End and Central Plain.
As a result, they might disconnect all their super large cross-region teleportation arrays to the outside world.
In other words, in the future, people from the Southern Wilderness, Western Deserts, and Northern Border might have to travel on foot to other regions.”
It was clear that Perfected Lord Nether Star was not trying to deceive Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan.
No wonder no one had come to support or speak for them for such a long time.
It seemed that the teleportation connections between the various regions had been cut off.
This meant that Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan would still have to fly to the Western Desert themselves.
Sensing their thoughts, Perfected Lord Nether Star suddenly took out a token and handed it to them.
“Fellow Daoists, while I can’t help you travel directly to the Western Deserts, I have a token here that can teleport you directly to the Abyss of Celestial Beasts. If you plan to travel that way to the Western Deserts, this token might save you some time.”
“Huh?”
Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan were somewhat surprised.
Clearly, they did not expect Perfected Lord Nether Star, or rather, the Supreme Celestial Sect, to have such a trick up their sleeves.
Without any hesitation, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan accepted the token from Nether Star and expressed their gratitude.
“In that case, we thank you, Fellow Daoist Nether Star.”
Perfected Lord Nether Star smiled and shook his head.
“You’re welcome.
But…”
He paused briefly before continuing,
“You have previously offended Tianfu and Tianhe. I suspect they won’t let this go so easily.
It’s possible that the moment you leave the Ice Jade Palace, you might be attacked by them.
You have to be wary of this.”
Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan were already aware of this possibility.
Shen Ruyan responded with a smile, “Don’t worry. My husband and I have already planned for this.
If possible, we will deal with those two, as a way of thanking you for the teleportation token.”
Shen Ruyan’s words clearly stunned Perfected Lord Nether Star and Wu Bingyun.
At the same time.
Several thousand miles away from the Ice Jade Palace, Tianfu and Tianhe were watching the direction of the Ice Jade Palace with cold eyes.
Tianhe asked, “Senior Brother, do you think those two will leave the Ice Jade Palace so soon?”
Tianfu shook his head, “I’m not sure, but it doesn’t hurt for us to wait here for a while.
For the Armored Wood Vine, what’s the big deal if you and I waste some time here?”
“That’s true.”
True Monarch Sky River nodded.
“If not for the fact that there’s a peak level 5 array in the Ice Jade Palace, we definitely wouldn’t have let it go so easily.”
At this point, Tianhe suddenly thought of something and asked Tianfu again,
“By the way, Senior Brother, I saw that you seemed to have contacted other senior brothers and sisters just now. How is it? Are they willing to come?”
“Yes, Tianyao and Tianjing have both agreed.
I promised them that after dealing with those two, they could take eighty percent of the remaining treasures, excluding the Armored Wood Vine.
If nothing goes wrong, they should join us within three days.
Hopefully, those two will stay in the Ice Jade Palace a bit longer and not leave so soon.
With the four of us together, even with Perfected Lord Nether Star, they won’t be able to escape.”
As Tianfu was speaking, his expression suddenly changed.
“Damn it!
The two of them have already left the Ice Jade Palace.
Why so early?”
Tianhe was also shocked.
He hurriedly looked up.
As expected, they discovered two familiar figures outside the Ice Jade Palace. They had flown out of the range of the Ice Jade Palace and were flying towards them..
