Chapter 508 Talisman Amulet
Meng Chuan and Supremacy Qing Gu moved separately. After all, their goals were different. Talisman Amulet Gate. Meng Chuan first headed to Black Dragon City’s top ten merchants. These merchants had Tribulation Eminences backing them! Some of them were even backed by other river systems’ Tribulation Eminences.
Meng Chuan first went to Talisman Amulet Gate. Black Dragon City’s Talisman Amulet Gate specialized in selling talismans. They sold many single-use talismans.
“Welcome, Imperial Lord.” The female attendant welcomed him warmly.
Meng Chuan continued to use the Sea Serpent Token to disguise his aura as an Imperial Lord’s. He could save himself plenty of trouble by doing so.
“Imperial Lord, the Treasure Auction is approaching. Our Talisman Amulet Gate has also pushed out some more precious talismans. You can take a look,” said the female attendant.
“Oh, which talismans do you have?” asked Meng Chuan.
“Void Shattering Talisman, Life Substitute Talisman, Avatar Talisman, Void Escape Talisman…” the female attendant listed 15 different talismans in a row before she whispered, “Furthermore, we also have Lesser Void Transference Talismans. However, we only have ten of them. We’ve already sold six of them.”
Meng Chuan’s pupils constricted. “Lesser Void Transference Talismans?”
Many things couldn’t be bought on Black Dragon Planet, even in Eternal Tower. For example, he couldn’t find a single Cosmos Crystal. It was as though all the Cosmos Crystals in the outer realm had been completely plundered clean. Not a single one was available for sale.
He also couldn’t buy Void Transference Talismans from Eternal Tower! At the very least, Meng Chuan couldn’t buy them with his Imperial Lord status. Although a single-use Void Transference Talisman had a similar price to a Sixth Tribulation Treasure, Tribulation Eminences only needed a few Tribulation treasures! Therefore, it was very difficult to find a suitable owner for the Tribulation treasures left behind in history.
Void Transference Talismans were different! Everyone could use them. No matter how strict the worldly laws were in worlds that supported life, the outer realm, or forbidden zones, they could still be forcefully used.
Be it the weak, Fifth Tribulation Eminences, or even Sixth Tribulation Eminences, they could survive by using a Void Transference Talisman.
Most importantly, it was a single-use item! Once a Void Transference Talisman was used up, it would be gone. Furthermore, it was difficult to create one. Due to this, the outer realm’s supply of Void Transference Talismans simply couldn’t keep up with the demand.
Worlds like Archean Eon Realm and the Demon Realm had very few Void Transference Talismans, even though they had rather deep heritages. The human world had quite a few in the past, but they had been used over the generations. The last one had been used not long ago. Emperor Roc and the other two Imperial Lords had combined their contributions to exchange for one Void Transference Talisman from the Demon Ancestral Cave. It had been their trump card. They hoped that their fifth Firmament demon monarch army could successfully enter the human world, allowing them to obtain Ancestral Master Archean Eon’s treasures! Even if they only obtained a tiny portion of Ancestral Master Archean Eon’s treasures, they would still make a killing. Back then, they were very close to success! The fifth Firmament demon monarchs had used the Void Transference Talisman to rendezvous with Demon Sage Deep Profundity immediately.
Meng Chuan and company had found it difficult to kill Demon Sage Deep Profundity. They watched as Demon Sage Deep Profundity drew the map of connection points. They watched as the demons’ chances of successfully leading an army into the human world rose.
If this had happened, the human world would have faced a calamity. If this had happened, humans either had to lower their heads obediently and hand over many benefits, or they would risk their lives to annihilate the world.
Thankfully, King True Martial had cursed Demon Sage Deep Profundity to death by using the Fate Strawman and consuming his lifespan completely, thereby destroying the demons’ plan. Later on, it became impossible for the fifth Firmament demon monarch army to threaten humanity after Meng Chuan created his paramount technique.
Although a Lesser Void Transference Talisman is much weaker than a Void Transference Talisman, I’ll be able to flee once I use it, unless a Tribulation Eminence prevents me from escaping… Even Supremacies and Imperial Lords can survive a dangerous situation if they use a Lesser Void Transference Talisman.
The laws of a world that supported life were strict. The worldly laws’ suppression was extremely terrifying. It prevented one from using a Lesser Void Transference Talisman.
The Ashen Palace could suppress the Lesser Void Transference Talisman’s effects. It could greatly change time and space, preventing one from successfully using the talisman. In the outer realm—where there was no suppression
—these talismans would be of great use. “What’s the price?” asked Meng Chuan. “It can’t be higher than Eternal Tower’s price, right?”
Eternal Tower always had Lesser Void Transference Talismans on sale.
“A Lesser Void Transfer Talisman costs 39 Outer Realm Essence Crystals,” said the female attendant via voice transmission.
“Thirty-nine cubes?” Meng Chuan hesitated. “Let me think about it.”
The demand for Void Transference Talismans outstripped the supply. Lesser Void Transference Talismans were also in high demand! Some of the more wealthy Imperial Lords could afford by gritting their teeth.
Moments later
In one of Talisman Amulet Gate’s halls.
“I want one Lesser Void Transference Talisman, two Life Substitute Talismans, and two Void Escape Talismans,” said Meng Chuan.
The gray-robed Supremacy in charge of receiving him let out a radiant smile immediately. “Imperial Lord, you acted early. I’m afraid the Lesser Void Transference Talismans would’ve been sold out in a few days. Other than these three talismans, do you need anything else?” “That’s all,” said Meng Chuan.
“The Lesser Void Transference Talisman costs 39 cubes. The two Life Substitute Talismans cost six cubes in total. The two Void Escape Talismans also cost six cubes in total. A total of 51 Outer Realm Essence Crystals,” said the gray-robed Supremacy.
Meng Chuan nodded slightly. With a wave of his hand, 51 identical Outer Realm Essence Crystals floated to the side.
In preparation for the Treasure Auction, Meng Chuan had sold some materials and treasures to Eternal Tower ahead of time. After selling some of the treasures left behind by Senior Pang Ming, he had obtained 135 Outer Realm Essence Crystals.
Meng Chuan was also very cautious when selling these treasures. He was afraid that someone would discover that the treasures had something to do with Senior Pang Ming’s cave abode if he sold them elsewhere.
Selling them to Eternal Tower was much safer. Furthermore, it was easier for him to keep his identity a secret with the Sea Serpent Token.
I’ve spent so much on just three types of talismans. It’s almost as much as a cheap Fifth Tribulation treasure. Meng Chuan quickly obtained the three types of talismans he wanted.
He had bought two Life Substitute Talismans, two Void Escape Talismans, and one Lesser Void Transference Talisman.
The Void Escape Talisman was used for escaping. Most of the time, one could use it to escape. There was no need to use the Lesser Void Transference Talisman unless it was a truly dire situation.
I can study the Void Escape Talismans and the Lesser Void Transference Talisman. By doing this, I can also comprehend the void lineage’s profundities contained within. I can also comprehend some of the time lineage’s profundities by studying the Life Substitute Talismans.
Although the Life Substitute Talisman had some flaws, it was worth buying it. After all, by using it, one would instantly recover to peak state after receiving a fatal attack.
Meng Chuan visited the largest merchants first. When many experts gathered in Black Dragon City, he took the opportunity to buy a large number of treasures. He spent a total of 123 Outer Realm Essence Crystals. He bought bits and bobs from various shops. His biggest expenditure had been at Talisman Amulet Gate. It was normal.
After visiting the large merchants, Meng Chuan went shopping at the small streetside buildings.
Most of these small streetside buildings were rented by Imperial Lords. Some Supremacies jointly rented them for a short period of time, taking the opportunity to sell their spoils.
“This is what we obtained from an expedition into an ancient cave abode. They are all good treasures.” In a small streetside building, five Supremacies personally received guests. None of them hired puppet attendants. Meng Chuan walked in.
From the side, he looked at the treasures placed inside the array formation. Some of them were even damaged. The damaged items felt like they had been passed down over a long period of time. Without good maintenance, the treasures had gradually been damaged. They really were like spoils discovered in an ancient cave abode. However, Meng Chuan knew very well that no matter how nice it sounded, they were not to be taken seriously!
“Imperial Lord.” A red-robed Supremacy immediately welcomed Meng Chuan warmly when he saw him. Among the eight guests in the building, only Meng Chuan was an Imperial Lord, though it was just a disguise
“You have cultivation manuals here?” Meng Chuan glanced at the manuals. They were in the form of jade and blood cauldrons. In short, they were all legacy manuals.
“These are all Imperial Lord-level manuals,” said the red-robed Supremacy warmly. “It’s a harvest that my friends and I have collected over the years. Some of them were from our homeworld! There are a total of 19 manuals. One only requires one Essence Crystal to learn all of them.”
Meng Chuan laughed when he heard that.
Learning?
An Imperial Lord-level legacy was like the human’s Black Metal Sutra legacies. As long as one maintained them well, one could keep learning from them. Even if others learned from the manuals, they would still belong to the Supremacies ultimately. The Supremacies would only be profiting from such an endeavor.
“Imperial Lord-level manuals, but I don’t know what aspects they cover,” said Meng Chuan casually. “It’s already good enough to have one or two that are suitable for me. One Essence Crystal?”
“We have detailed introductions for each of these manuals. Imperial Lord, you can take a look first before deciding if you want to learn them or not. Perhaps it will be of great help to your cultivation,” said the red-robed Supremacy warmly. They were very willing to do such a business. After all, they didn’t have to give up the manuals.
Meng Chuan came from Archean Eon Realm, which had a deep heritage. He had originally planned on rejecting the offer. However, when his gaze swept across the 19 manuals, he saw one that looked like a painting catalogue. His heart couldn’t help but stir as he casually said, “Bring them over for me to take a look. What manuals are there?”.
