“That’s the price to hire a One Basic Celestial King from the Blood Skull Gang. If you want someone stronger to do the job, the price will, naturally, be different. However, in my opinion, even the weakest assassin in the Blood Skull Gang should be sufficient to kill a mere peak Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial…”

“Yes, yes, it’s sufficient,” Zheng Hong Yi agreed. He could not help but gulp when he heard that price that was quoted. Although he knew it was going to be costly to hire an assassin from the Blood Skull Gang, he did not expect it to be so expensive. He thought to himself, ‘The price to hire a One Basic Celestial King from the Blood Skull Gang is two purely defensive King Grade Celestial Weapons that have been nurtured by Celestial Lords? Thank the heavens that Wang Hong will share the cost with me. Although I can afford to pay two purely defensive King Grade Celestial Weapons that have been nurtured by Celestial Lords, if I use them to pay for the assassin, I’d be without protection.’

Zheng Hong Yi felt rather fortunate. With Wang Hong sharing the cost of hiring an assassin from the Blood Skull Gang with him, he would only have to part with one of the two purely defensive King Grade Celestial Weapons that had been nurtured by Celestial Lords in his possession. With this, he would have one left for his protection. Although he hated Duan Ling Tian for robbing him of the final position of a true disciple in the Simplicity Celestial Sect, he would not have given up two Celestial Weapons that could protect him just to take Duan Ling Tian’s life.

Soon after, Zheng Hong Yi’s eyes lit up as he thought to himself, ‘Based on Chen Li’s words, the two purely defensive King Grade Celestial Weapons that have been nurtured by Celestial Lords can also be replaced with six purely defensive King Grade Celestial Weapons. This means a purely defensive King Grade Celestial Weapons that have been nurtured by Celestial Lords can be replaced with three purely defensive King Grade Celestial Weapons. In the regions under the Profound Nether Mansion, a purely defensive King Grade Celestial Weapon that has been nurtured by a Celestial Lord can be exchanged with four purely defensive King Grade Celestial Weapons. As for the exchange rate for other King Grade Celestial Weapons, they’re the same,’ Zheng Hong Yi’s eyes lit up as he thought to himself.

Coincidentally, Zheng Hong Yi possessed two ordinary purely defensive King Grade Celestial Weapons. As long Wang Hong handed over her purely defensive King Grade Celestial Weapon that had been nurtured by a Celestial Lord, he could trade it for four ordinary purely defensive King Grade Celestial Weapons. After the assassin from the Blood Skull Gang had completed his task, he would only need to hand over six purely defensive King Grade Celestial Weapons. With this, he would not have to give up his purely defensive King Grade Celestial Weapon that had been nurtured by a Celestial Lord.

“Young Master Chen, I have no problem with the price you’ve quoted. May I know when the assassin from the Blood Skull Gang would be dispatched?” Zheng Hong Yi asked Chen Li via the Communication Celestial Talisman. He could not wait for the assassin to kill Duan Ling Tian. Unfortunately, it was impossible for the assassin to arrive today. Moreover, even if the assassin managed to arrive today, if Duan Ling Tian did not leave the Simplicity Celestial Sect’s estate, it would be difficult for the assassin to make a move. After all, a One Basic Celestial King was not capable of breaching the Simplicity Celestial Sect’s defenses and killing someone in the sect’s estate. Even on the off chance that the assassin managed to kill his target, it would be difficult for him to escape. Apart from that, the assassin might have the support of the Blood Skull Gang, but the Simplicity Celestial Sect was under the Profound Nether Mansion that was supported by one of the ten major clans in the Southern Heaven Territory. Compared to the ten major clans in the Southern Heaven Territory, the Blood Skull Gang was truly insignificant. In fact, the Blood Skull Gang did not dare to receive assignments that were related to the people of the ten major clans.

“We’ll send our One Basic Celestial King out within three days. When he arrives, he’ll find a way to get in touch with you. According to the Blood Skull Gang’s rules, you’re required to pay half of the price as a deposit beforehand. When he arrives, you’ll need to hand over the deposit first, and after he has completed his job, you’ll hand him the remaining half,” Chen Li said.

“Alright,” Zheng Hong Yi replied.

After Zheng Hong Yi bade farewell to Chen Li, he continued thinking about the price the Blood Skull Gang had charged him. ‘Two purely defensive King Grade Celestial Weapons that have been nurtured by Celestial Lords to hire a One Basic Celestial King… The price is five times higher compared to the assassin organizations in the Profound Nether Mansion.’ However, he knew the price was reasonable considering the assassin and the target’s abilities and the distance the assassin had to travel. Moreover, if he had hired an assassin from the organizations in the Profound Nether Mansion, it would be easy for his master, the Sect Leader of the Simplicity Celestial Sect, to trace the assassination attempt back to him if his master had gone to the Profound Nether Mansion for help. The assassin organizations in the Profound Nether Mansion would undoubtedly be unable to withstand the pressure from the mansion. If he was exposed as the mastermind behind Duan Ling Tian’s assassination, not only would he lose the chance to become a true disciple, but his master might even kill him. Even if his master spared his life, he would definitely be expelled from the Simplicity Celestial Sect and have his cultivation base crippled. For all these reasons, he did not have any complaint about the price the Blood Skull Gang charged him despite it being exorbitant. As the saying went, ‘Caution is the parent of safety.’

‘I should look for Wang Hong and collect a purely defensive King Grade Celestial Weapon that has been nurtured by a Celestial Lord from her… After I trade her purely defensive King Grade Celestial Weapon that has been nurtured by a Celestial Lord for four ordinary purely defensive King Grade Celestial Weapons, coupled with two of my purely defensive King Grade Celestial Weapons, I’ll have enough to pay the Blood Skull Gang.’ With this thought in mind, Zheng Hong Yi left his courtyard in search of Wang Hong.

Zheng Hong Yi was rather delighted and pleased with himself when he thought about his plan that would ensure he would not have to give up any of his two purely defensive King Grade Celestial Weapons that had been nurtured by Celestial Lords. Alas, reality was cruel.

When Zheng Hong Yi informed Wang Hong about the price they would have to pay the Blood Skull Gang, she said, “Although I’ve not had any dealings with the Blood Skull Gang before, I know how top assassin organizations in the Southern Heaven Territory work. Before they start the job, they would ask for half the price as a deposit. Inform me when the assassin arrives, and I’ll hand over the deposit. You can pay the remaining half after the job is done.”

Wang Hong’s words completely shattered Zheng Hong Yi’s brilliant plan. He could not take advantage of her at all.

Meanwhile, after Duan Ling Tian returned from the library, he remained in his residence. He sat cross-legged on the ice bed in his room to comprehend the law of fire’s Fundamental Profundity, the Fire Elemental Profundity, with the help from the Chaos Divine Flame.

Previously, the Chaos Divine Flame had said to Duan Ling Tian, “If you manage to obtain King Grade Celestial Methods or Divine Abilities that contain the law of fire, I can help you to completely comprehend the law of fire’s Fire Elemental Profundity in three hours!”

For this reason, Duan Ling Tian was excited to see if the Chaos Divine Flame would really be able to help him comprehend the law of fire’s Fundamental Profundity, the Fire Elemental Profundity, in three hours.

During the process of comprehending the Fire Elemental Profundity, Duan Ling Tian thoroughly followed the Chaos Divine Flame’s instructions. He summoned a grey flame to his fingertip just like how he would if he was refining pills. Then, he cleared his mind. Soon after, he felt himself merging with the Chaos Divine Flame. His emotions, joy, anger, and sorrow, would change in accordance with the grey flame. Many scenes from the past where he had used the Chaos Divine Flame, mostly when he was refining pills, flitted across his mind. Slowly but surely he began to lose all sense of time.

When Duan Ling Tian finally regained his senses, he discovered he had completely comprehended the law of fire’s Fire Elemental Profundity! Naturally, he did not know how much time had passed. It felt like a moment, but it also felt as though a century had passed.

“How long did I take to comprehend the Fire Elemental Profundity?” Duan Ling Tian asked the Chaos Divine Flame.

“Two and a half hour,” the Chaos Divine Flame replied.

As soon as the Chaos Divine Flame finished speaking, the Chaos Divine Earth scoffed and said, “Nonsense! It was two and a half hours and three breaths…”

The Chaos Divine Flame ignored the Chaos Divine Earth’s words.

Meanwhile, Duan Ling Tian could sense the jealousy in the Chaos Divine Earth’s words. It was not surprising since the Chaos Divine Earth took an entire night to help him comprehend the law of earth’s Fundamental Profundity, the Earth Elemental Profundity, in the past.

Although the Chaos Divine Flame’s help was crucial in helping him to comprehend the Fire Elemental Profundity in such a short time, he knew it was also, in part, due to his familiarity with the Chaos Divine Flame that was born from the times they refined pills. His understanding of the Chaos Divine Flame had subtly grown deeper each time he refined pills with the Chaos Divine Flame. For this reason, he was able to comprehend the Fire Elemental Profundity in less than three hours.

“The Fire Elemental Profundity…” With just a thought, Celestial Origin Energy surged out of Duan Ling Tian’s body. After it was boosted with the Fire Elemental Profundity, the Celestial Origin Energy turned red like flames.

Sizzle! Sizzle! Sizzle!

A sizzling sound from the burning Celestial Origin Energy rang in the air.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Duan Ling Tian raised his hand, and the fiery red Celestial Origin Energy shot out like a terrifying beast shrouded in flames!
