Chapter 432: Chapter 315: Spirit Treasure Cliff, Raising Heart-devouring Insects!
As soon as the Cloud-Burning Golden Frog spoke, the entire island suddenly fell silent.
Then, a voice that seemed to tease came from above its head: "Could it be that this Cloud Dream Marsh is truly an Immortal Blessed Land? Any Great Demon can find an opportunity to hide here for survival?"
Accompanying the voice was the piercing Sword Qi stabbing into the neck of the Cloud-Burning Golden Frog, causing its heart and spirit to tremble with immense fear.
"Sword Immortal, please see clearly, this Little Demon truly has an opportunity to offer, truly an opportunity!"
The Cloud-Burning Golden Frog did not know what was inappropriate about its words, but could feel Gu Yuan’s surge of murderous intent, and it cried out in haste.
"Speak for now!"
Gu Yuan’s voice came from above, devoid of delight or anger.
The Cloud-Burning Golden Frog was startled in its heart, but gritted its teeth and said, "I am willing to offer this opportunity to the Sword Immortal, but please spare my life and grant me freedom!!"
"You have no right to bargain with me!"
Hearing this, Gu Yuan chuckled, waved his sleeve, and the Sword Qi swept across, directly slicing open half of the Golden Frog’s head, with crimson demon blood spilling everywhere, instantly dyeing the Golden Frog’s entire body red.
With a strike from the Great Thunder Origin Cave Divine Dharma Eye, half of the Golden Frog’s soul had already been torn apart. The soul being the master of the body, losing most of the soul power, even the cohesion of thoughts was extremely difficult, let alone facing Gu Yuan’s near Sword Qi, the Golden Frog had no room for resistance.
Its neck half-severed, Sword Qi entered its body, it was almost on the verge of falling.
"I’ll speak, I’ll speak!"
Seeing Gu Yuan’s ferocity, there was no way the Golden Frog dared to bargain further, spilling beans as it said: "Spirit Treasure Cliff, I have an entry Token for Spirit Treasure Cliff!"
Spirit Treasure Cliff?
Gu Yuan was immediately moved.
When he came to the Cloud Dream Marsh, he had gone through many records and had some understanding of the Great Marsh.
The Cloud Dream Marsh is vast and boundless, spanning hundreds of thousands of miles. Even Golden Cores, Great Demons, find it difficult to cross such vast waters and usually cultivate in their own small patches of land, occasionally traveling around to seek opportunities.
Overall, the Great Marsh is relatively loose and free, each taking mountains as kings, islands as sovereigns, with little interaction.
However, in the Great Marsh, there are a few grand events that can stir up changes.
Spirit Treasure Cliff is one of them.
Spirit Treasure Cliff was a secret realm of a Sect called Spirit Treasure Sect from ancient times in the Cloud Dream Marsh.
But as time passed, the Spirit Treasure Sect had long been erased by the river of history.
Only this secret realm called Spirit Treasure Cliff remained.
Five hundred years ago, this secret realm suddenly appeared, shooting out six "Treasure Cliff Orders" out of thin air; only then was the secret realm made known to the world.
Since then, every hundred years, the Spirit Treasure Cliff would shoot out six "Treasure Cliff Orders"; as long as one obtained this Treasure Cliff Order, they could enter the Spirit Treasure Cliff.
The reason this secret realm is called "Spirit Treasure Cliff" is that it is said to house a true "Spiritual Treasure."
A Spiritual Treasure is the companion treasure of a Daoist Embryo Master with power far surpassing Golden Cores, therefore each time a "Treasure Cliff Order" appears, it stirs up the Great Marsh, causing much contention.
However, over hundreds of years past, it is said that the Spiritual Treasure is still in the secret realm, and no one could obtain it.
However, with the previous openings of the secret realm, the existence of a Spiritual Treasure in Spirit Treasure Cliff had been confirmed, and some had gained great benefits from it, making the Great Demons and Golden Cores of the Great Marsh covet it more.
Even cultivators from other areas enter the Great Marsh every hundred years seeking this opportunity.
"The Treasure Cliff Orders are randomly shot out across hundreds of thousands of miles, without form and substance, difficult for Divine Sense to detect, and inference techniques are hard to measure. Where did you get it from?"
At this moment, the Sloppy Daoist and the Old Turtle also descended from the clouds, coming to Gu Yuan’s side. Seeing Gu Yuan’s slightly furrowed brows, the Sloppy Daoist immediately understood and questioned the Cloud-Burning Golden Frog.
"Ten days ago, I was cultivating in my mansion, when suddenly an incorporeal stream of light broke through my grand array. I took a close look, and there was the Treasure Order falling in front of me."
At this time, the Cloud-Burning Golden Frog knew that both the Sloppy Daoist and the Old Turtle had already submitted to Gu Yuan; therefore, he did not dare to refute the Sloppy Daoist’s interrogation and answered honestly.
However, what he said was not false; the Treasure Cliff Order did indeed randomly fall into his Cave Mansion.
Upon hearing this, the Sloppy Daoist and the Old Turtle exchanged glances, both surprised and envious in their hearts.
This Golden Frog, did it actually have such fortune?
One must know that the Treasure Cliff Orders are randomly shot out, and within hundreds of thousands of miles, there are only six, each the size of a palm, like six drops of water falling into the sea. It’s equivalent to finding a needle in a haystack to obtain it, with Divine Sense hard to detect.
Yet this Golden Frog was merely sitting in its mansion, and the Treasure Order fell from the sky?
But upon seeing the Golden Frog’s miserable neck and the oozing blood from its huge wound, the jealousy in one human and one demon’s heart eased by more than half.
But in the next moment, the Sloppy Daoist seemed to remember something, immediately asking: "Have you refined this Order?"
Once refined, the Treasure Cliff Order cannot be changed, and only the Token Master can use it.
However, a single token could also carry one additional person.
Although the Treasure Cliff Orders randomly scatter across the land, the location that Spirit Treasure Cliff anchors in the Great Marsh hasn’t changed.
To enter Spirit Treasure Cliff, one must go to "East Qiao Mountain."
Many cultivators and Great Demons desiring to enter Spirit Treasure Cliff without obtaining a Treasure Cliff Order would lay in wait at East Qiao Mountain, selecting a Token Master, forcibly binding with them to enter the secret realm.
If the Token Master refuses, these cultivators and Great Demons would rather kill the Token Master and destroy the order than allow them to enter.
Therefore, binding with this token also requires careful consideration.
