Chapter 346: Chapters 137-138 It goes without saying what a scene it was (two in one, asking for monthly tickets)_4
These might be useful for ordinary Grandmasters and those below that level. However, in his view, for a powerhouse at the Grandmaster Ultimate Summit like Shen Changqing, run-of-the-mill Grandmaster Martial Arts were no longer of any use. What Shen Changqing lacked was merely an opportunity to break through his limits.
"Then there’s no problem," Shen Changqing nodded. He had only asked casually, as he had already intended to integrate martial arts. Regardless of whether they were Grandmaster Martial Arts, as long as they were Outer Techniques, he could fuse them.
After that, Shen Changqing took out his Pure Spirit Jade Pendant. He had carried this jade pendant for a long time and hadn’t paid much attention to it ordinarily. Until this moment, when he actually took it out, he was shocked to find that the Pure Spirit Jade Pendant had long since lost its original white jade-like color. It was now completely pitch-black like ink, and an ominous, evil aura leaked from it.
As soon as Shen Changqing took it out, the Pure Spirit Jade Pendant, as if lacking the suppression of his aura, began to emit endless wailing and roaring sounds.
Seeing this, Ji Tianlu’s expression changed slightly. "The Yin Evil Aura in the Pure Spirit Jade Pendant is so dense! It seems Elder Shen has indeed slain a significant number of Demon Evils!"
It was only because Shen Changqing was so powerful that he wasn’t afraid of the corrosion from the Yin Evil Aura. Otherwise, this Pure Spirit Jade Pendant alone, tainted with such a rich Yin Evil Aura, could directly corrupt the spirit of an ordinary martial artist, turning them cruel and bloodthirsty.
"Apart from the aura of two Demon Evils inside the Pure Spirit Jade Pendant, the remaining Demon Evil aura is also troublesome. Defender Ji, please help me exchange all of it. Use whatever it yields to trade for the required Demon Evils. As for the remaining shortfall, I’ll have to trouble Defender Ji to help cover it." As Shen Changqing spoke, he cradled the Pure Spirit Jade Pendant in his palm and presented it directly to Ji Tianlu.
Ji Tianlu took the jade pendant and nodded. "No problem. If Elder Shen needs a Pure Spirit Jade Pendant, you can also go to the Demon Slaying Hall to collect a new one."
I initially thought I would be losing two thousand Merit Points. But now it seems the actual amount I’ll need to cover might only be a little over a thousand. After calculating, it isn’t too much of a loss.
Once these matters were settled, Ji Tianlu felt much more at ease. There was no helping it; after the battle, not only had they failed to exterminate the Myriad Buddhas Sect, but they had also suffered significant losses among their own ranks. This was without mentioning his own severe injuries. The martial artists within the Demon-Subduing Division had also incurred considerable casualties. If there were no strong figures to hold the fort, relying solely on Xun Qu would hardly be enough to stabilize the situation. Defender Envoys are strong, but it always depends on the circumstances.
Meanwhile, Xun Qu’s gaze fell upon Tiankui. As Xun Qu looked at Tiankui, Tiankui also bared its teeth at him. It never forgot its enemies. If not for sensing Xun Qu’s powerful aura—far beyond what it could handle—and Shen Changqing’s presence nearby, Tiankui would have already charged forward to fight him to the death.
"Elder Shen, you’ve raised this Tiankui well. It looks like it’s almost reaching its growth period, isn’t it?"
"Almost. I feed it fresh blood daily. If even that doesn’t accelerate its growth, then it would be rather disappointing," Shen Changqing said, a smile playing on his lips.
Xun Qu said, "Once Tiankui enters its growth period, it will grow a pair of wings. When it grows two pairs of wings, it will have officially entered its mature period. It’s easy to enter the growth period, but Elder Shen will have to put in more effort for it to reach the mature period."
"I understand," Shen Changqing replied.
After they discussed and confirmed a few matters, Shen Changqing left with Tiankui.
Inside the great hall, Ji Tianlu looked at Xun Qu, his expression grave. "Although we have Elder Shen now, we still need to be cautious. The Eternal Alliance will not miss such an opportunity. I will have to go into seclusion to heal my wounds. The matters concerning the Demon Evils, I’ll leave to you!"
"That’s fine." Xun Qu understood what Ji Tianlu meant, nodded, and accepted the task.
