Senior Sister Yan’s face changed, she was representing her master in the competition? How could she represent when she had difficulty even refining lower grade dao weapons?
Seeing Senior Sister Yan’s face change slightly, the petite female cultivator sneered disdainfully, “This duel is witnessed by the strongest people from the major stars, we have come to deliver the battle letter, if you don’t dare to go to the competition, just say so too.”
After this female cultivator finished, she also said to her companion, “Senior brother Bing, you go outside now and put up a sign saying that Zhong Li Bai Eating does not dare to accept our challenge, and the Bai Eating Alchemy Shop of the name selling will cease to exist from now on, and will never be able to venture into Zu Tian Starry Sky City ……”
Hearing this, the professional smile on senior sister Yan’s face disappeared without a trace long ago, and said in the same chilling voice, “Although your master is not qualified to challenge my master, but challenging me is barely enough, as you wish, this match, I Cen Yan take it.”
When the petite female cultivator heard Senior Sister Yan’s words, she surprisingly did not refute them, instead she smiled and left a jade token and said, “The venue of the competition, the Zu Tian Refining Pool in ten days, don’t forget. Go, Senior Brother Bing.”
Senior Sister Yan grabbed the jade token, her hand was trembling slightly, she knew that if she didn’t go, Zhong Li Bai Eating’s name would be the same as stinking. Just like Jin Ming Qian Bo who had been kicked out of Zu Tian Starry Sky City by her master back then, she would fall in a heap and leave Zu Tian Starry Sky City in the dust, even worse than Jin Ming Qian Bo back then. But if she went, she would be a loser all the same. But it was better to go and lose than to not go and be important.
The ban at the door moved and a young man with some beard on his face hurriedly burst through the door.
“What magic treasure do you want to refine, please ……” Senior Sister Yan put away the jade token at the first opportunity, and a smile returned to her face.
The youth waved his hand and said, “Senior Sister Yan, I am your Senior Brother Ning, I have offended someone and can only use a mask to disguise myself.”
After saying that, Ning Cheng removed his mask and let Senior Sister Yan take a look at it before putting it back on.
Seeing Ning Cheng’s pale face, Senior Sister Yan immediately knew that Ning Cheng had indeed been injured. However, to her, Ning Cheng’s return was a matter of immense surprise.
“Senior Brother Ning, I was looking for you in a hurry, you came back just in time, I have an urgent matter ……” Senior Sister Yan was truly surprised beyond measure at this moment, she was worried about not having a way to go to the tournament when Senior Brother Ning came back.
This senior brother Ning was also hard to beat the disciples of Jin Ming Qian Bo, no matter what, it was better than not even being able to refine a medium grade dao weapon by yourself. Going to the competition at one’s own level, losing was a small matter, losing one’s master’s talent was a big matter.
Ning Cheng didn’t even ask Senior Sister Yan what was going on, he simply refused, “I’m injured and have to go heal, don’t disturb me.”
“Wait.” In her eagerness, Senior Sister Yan reached out and pulled Ning Cheng by the hand. Without waiting for Ning Cheng to speak, she told him all about what had happened before, even the matter of Zhong Li Bai Eating and Jin Ming Qian Bo forming a feud.
Ning Cheng said helplessly, “Senior Sister Yan, it’s the same whether I go or you go, you think you can win against someone just because you can refine a middle grade dao weapon? I don’t need you to tell me, I can guess that that Jin Ming Qianbo is very strong, no worse than Master. His disciple has studied refining with him for so long that he can at least refine top-grade upper-grade dao weapons, and you’re asking me, someone who has only studied refining with Master for a few days, to compete with a master refiner who has studied for countless years?”
After saying that, Ning Cheng quickened his steps and arrived at the first floor in a few steps. After reaching the second floor, he casually struck down a bunch of prohibitions.
Not to mention that he knew he would definitely lose, even if he had a chance to win, he did not want to compete. He knew that by saying that Zhong Li Bai Eats had accepted him as his disciple, he wanted him to do him a favour, and even if there was no such thing, Ning Cheng did not want to joke with his own little life.
Going to such a competition, there would definitely be stronger people there than Zhong Li Bai Eating, what if he discovered his Xuanhuang Pearl? Hadn’t Cang Wei discovered his Xuanhuang pearl? Who could be sure that there were no stronger people than Cang Wei here? This was the Great Midheaven Star. Besides, what if that Daoist nun from the Wuji Holy Land went there and knew that he was Ning Cheng?
Taking a step back, no one had found his Xuanhuang Pearl or recognised him as Ning Cheng. His Star River Flame, however, was a treasure, and if someone coveted it, would he be able to keep it? Zhong Li Bai ate a better flame than his, and if he didn’t covet his, could he guarantee that others wouldn’t?
Three days passed quickly, Ning Cheng checked his body all over again and was sure that the injuries he had sustained in the battle with Fu Wu Mei had completely disappeared, and only then did he breathe a sigh of relief. He stood up and prepared to go and find Zi Chejun. As soon as he got the jade token to enter the Immortal Jade Star, he would hide and shut up until the Immortal Jade Star opened its location.
“Senior Brother Ning ……” Seeing Ning Cheng walking out, Senior Sister Yan once again greeted him.
Ning Cheng said sincerely, “Senior Sister Yan, there is indeed nothing I can do to help you, for one, I don’t have a high grade flame, and for two, my refining level is considered average. Besides, just because that disciple of Jin Ming Qian Bo won, it doesn’t mean that he himself won against Master.”
Senior Sister Yan’s tone was even more sincere than Ning Cheng’s, “Senior Brother Ning, as long as you help me go to the competition, I will give you 500 million purple coins, that’s all my savings.”
Ning Cheng had not planned to talk about this matter, but now that Senior Sister Yan had mentioned the matter of purple coins, he immediately sneered, “Senior Sister Yan, all your savings is 500 million purple coins? Those several hundred medium-grade Dao weapons would be far more than five hundred million purple coins, right?”
“You know about this? You followed me?” Senior Sister Yan’s face immediately changed, if Ning Cheng hadn’t followed her, wouldn’t he have known that she had taken the Dao Artifacts out to sell them?
Ning Cheng said in a light voice, “You don’t have to worry, I saw you go to the Transcendent Dao Artifact Merchant House occasionally and saw you selling Dao Artifacts. That was also refined from your materials anyway, I have no problem with it.”
Senior Sister Yan’s face recovered a little, “Senior Brother Ning, I did this unethical thing, but you didn’t suffer a loss either did you? The materials I gave you are enough to refine thousands of Dao weapons. Even if you waste some of the materials, I don’t believe that you haven’t earned any.”
Ning Cheng laughed, “Yes, it’s that everyone has earned something, that’s why I didn’t say anything. But don’t tell me that 500 million purple coins is all you have either, it makes me a little upset.”
“It is true that my entire fortune is only five hundred million, those hundreds of dao weapons were sold for billions of purple coins, and I need many resources for my cultivation, and I have to spend money to buy them myself.” Senior Sister Yan’s tone was even more sincere.
Ning Cheng frowned, “That’s not possible, is it? A few hundred dao weapons sold for billions of purple coins? I remember that medium-grade Dao weapons are tens of billions of green coins, that is, they cost more than 100 million purple coins.”
“I think you’re talking about a small place, right? In Zuotian Star City, what’s worth a lot of money are star warships, upper grade dao weapons, and extremely high grade dao weapons. True lower-grade dao weapons aren’t worth anything at all, the ones I took to sell were mid-grade dao weapons, and people still gave me that price because I came from a freeloading alchemy shop. Even medium-grade dao weapons in small places aren’t worth 100 million purple coins, you’ve been punked.” Senior Sister Yan retorted nonchalantly.
Ning Cheng also had nothing to say, he had never bought a magic treasure here at all and naturally did not know the exact price. He reckoned that he had most likely really been ripped off a little when he had purchased the medium-grade Dao weapon mask in the first place.
Seeing Ning Cheng’s silence, Senior Sister Yan hesitated for a moment and said, “Senior Brother Ning, you asked me about flame nirvana last time, so I guess you must have a flame that is about to be nirvana, right? Otherwise, you wouldn’t be able to refine a middle grade Dao weapon.”
“So what if it is?” Ning Cheng said carelessly.
“I have a way to make your flame nirvana.” Senior Sister Yan said as she stared at Ning Cheng.
A hint of sizzling heat flashed in Ning Cheng’s eyes, his flames not advancing was a great weakness to him. Now that Senior Sister Yan said that she had a way, his heart instantly went wild.
“Senior Sister Yan, say it, if you really have a solution, I will be very grateful to you.”
Seeing that Ning Cheng still did not say that he would go to the competition, a trace of disappointment flashed in Senior Sister Yan’s eyes and still said, “I don’t want your thanks, as long as you enter. At tomorrow’s auction, there will be an item for sale, something that can be used for the Nirvana Flame and can be considered the best choice. If you enter the competition, I have a way to buy it for you.”
“What kind of item?” Ning Cheng asked eagerly.
“Fire Origin Crystal.” Senior Sister Yan stared at Ning Cheng, “I can’t afford this item with my wealth, but Master left me one thing, if I take such an item out, I should be able to buy the Fire Origin Crystal.”
Ning Cheng was dumbfounded, Fire Origin Crystals could advance to the Star River Flame, how had he not thought of that? He had a bunch of Fire Origin Crystals on him, if he had known, he would have let the flames advance long ago ah.
“You said that Fire Origin Crystals can make flames nirvana?” Ning Cheng asked again with some disbelief.
“That’s right.” Senior Sister Yan said with certainty.
Ning Cheng asked once again, “Is that Fire Origin Crystal the best material for Nirvana?”
Senior Sister Yan was slightly silent for a moment before saying, “In theory, Fire Origin Crystal is the best material for Nirvana, but it requires more than ten pieces as big as a fist, if there is only one piece of Fire Origin Crystal, it can only be said to be a top level Nirvana material, and it is definitely better than something else. More than ten pieces of Fire Origin Crystal may only grow out by the Fire Origin Pearl, and it can be said that even an Eternal Realm powerhouse will not be able to obtain such treasures.”
“The Fire Origin Pearl is precious?” Ning Cheng asked casually with his mouth full, and was already thinking in his heart that he should find somewhere for his flames to go to nirvana.
Senior Sister Yan hummed and said, “I heard that there is only one Fire Origin Pearl in the Vast Interface, would you say that it is precious? You should have heard that the Immortal Jade Star has an origin, right?”
“I did hear about it, and I was wondering if I could get a spot to go in.” Ning Cheng replied honestly.
“Just die to that.” Senior Sister Yan shook her head, “Whether that Origin Pearl is real or fake, whoever gets it will end up taking it out. Do you know why those great powers didn’t go for it? It was because the Immortal Jade Star was fragile, and once the great powers of the four great stars grabbed it, the Immortal Jade Star would most likely collapse. The planet would collapse and the contents would completely disappear into the void. It was because of this that those great powers joined forces to seal the Immortal Jade Star and discussed letting cultivators from the Star Peeping Realm go in to help them grab it.”
